Chapter 36 Recruitment

In a few days, under the propaganda of Wang Meng’s monarch and ministers, the reputation of Wang Chief Manager That is, there is a hierarchal rise.

There are two reasons, township and integrity.

Clan, township party, this is the most important interpersonal relationship for most people in ancient times.

As soon as I heard that Chief Manager is from Haozhou, I have a good impression.

The beheading and visit on this day helped Wang Meng to confirm the integrity of his family.

Maintained an image of loving the people.

The Chief Manager has been promoted, and more than a dozen cronies have participated in the discussion.

Wang Meng sat in the main seat, wearing a new suit of iron armor, all of which were fish-scale iron pieces the size of one side, as thick as four copper coins, mirror armor with bright tiles on his chest, and wearing mirror armor on his feet. Iron boots.

Extremely powerful and majestic!

Wang Meng looked at the people on the left and right: “We occupy Haozhou now, Yuan Ting will definitely send people, there is no doubt, there are three things to do now.”

When Hu Weiyong, Zhou Yong and the others heard the words, they immediately looked towards Wang Meng and waited for the self-patriarch to open their mouths.

“First, raise food and grass. The so-called soldiers and horses are not moving, food and grass go first. With enough food and grass, we can recruit troops, defend the city, expand, and deal with the next situation.”

“Second, build weapons to defend the city, connect the blacksmiths in the fort to the blacksmiths and iron materials in the city, and recruit enough weapons to expand the army.”

“Third, recruitment training. Soldiers, this is not difficult, we also have experience, the next step is to put up notices and recruit new troops.”

Hearing this, everyone is nodded.

After a while, Hu Weiyong opened the mouth and said: “How many soldiers are you going to recruit this time, lord?”

Wang Meng glanced at him: “Recruit people according to the food. , to keep enough food for half a year, and prepare to recruit people.”

Hu Weiyong nodded: “According to the current food and grass in the treasury, if you keep enough food for half a year, about 20,000 new troops can be summoned.”

Wang Meng waved his hand: “Then call for 20,000 yuan first. At the same time, food and grass still need to be raised, and now I don’t know the situation of the officers and troops, so we can do a good job of probability in a protracted war.”

Hu Weiyong He looked at Sun De with some hesitation in his eyes.

Wang Meng saw the expressions of the two, opened the mouth and said: “Hu Weiyong, what did you think of? Say it!”

Hu Weiyong: “In order to deal with the arrival of the officers and troops I would like to advise the lord to strengthen the walls and clear the fields.”

Wang Meng took a deep look at Hu Weiyong upon hearing this.

The rest of the generals are not the ones who have not learned countless things. They have read some military books over the years and know the meaning of strong walls and clear fields.

I’m thinking about the pros and cons at this point.

Fortification means to strengthen the fortifications and make the fortress strong.

The most important thing is to clean up and store food crops and important materials in the wild.

After the enemy strikes, it will not be able to find food and grass supplies, and the logistical pressure will increase, which will consume the enemy’s strength.

Of course, this is actually a poisonous scheme, which is very damaging to the interests of the local people.

Wang Meng waved his hand slightly: “No, the fame you just created cannot be denied, and now there are refugees everywhere, what can you do to clear the land?”

Hu Weiyong twitched his beard and smiled: “My lord. I misunderstood, now there are refugees everywhere, there is nothing to clear, but outside the city are not just refugees, ordinary people!”

Wang Meng frowned slightly: “You mean country gentry?”

Hu Weiyong nodded: “The squires outside the city are all very rich. Once the official army comes, they will inevitably fall down and bring us trouble. While clearing the field, the food and grass they get from them can also be used. Support me while we train.”

Wang Meng only pondered for a while and understood what Hu Weiyong meant, so he opened the mouth and said: “Let the red horses steal it!”

Hearing this, Hu Weiyong immediately flashed a look of joy in his eyes: “My lord is brilliant.”

Robbing the squires is not a glory. After all, these squires are not all notorious, and many of them are clan forces.

But these are not hard bones. Once the Imperial Court army strikes, these people will definitely become the leading party.

Become Wang Meng’s enemy.

Wang Meng couldn’t do it himself, and now he still needs to take into account the reputation of a township party.

But what does the so-called Chima Pirate have to do with our Chief Manager?

A lot of generals also smiled when they heard the words. They all came from poor people and never had a good impression of the country gentry.

Zhou Yong even cup one fist in the other hand opened the mouth and said: “Brother, this time I will do it beautifully!”

Wang Meng nodded slightly , it should be.

“Okay, the next step is to expand the army. We will recruit 20,000 new troops. I will remove some of the current backbone of the army from the officers who used to serve as the middle and lower ranks of the army, and strive to fight before the arrival of the Imperial Court army. , to complete the training of this new army.”

“No!”

In the blink of an eye, a conscription notice from Wang Meng was posted.

It immediately caused a sensation among countless people, especially the refugees.

The rebels have entered the city, so naturally they can’t follow the example of the Mongolian master and prevent the refugees from outside the city, but allow the refugees to enter the city.

Even for the rest of the Red Scarf, wrapping the refugees is the correct way to open the rebellion.

So what if the refugees moved into the city?

The same is not enough to eat!

Now I hear that being a soldier can eat enough, why not get excited?

The recruits must be good recruits, locals in Haozhou City, with good family conditions, delicate, don’t!

On the contrary, these refugees, the real poor, are obedient enough. As for the weak, they will naturally have strength after eating enough.

For Wang Meng, these refugees are the best source of troops.

The main target of Wang Meng’s recruitment is these refugees, who can endure hardship and be obedient.

Accompanying this notice, Sun Xiao directly sent 200 people and brought three carts of food to the place where the refugees gathered.

Sun Xiao used a sharp blade to swipe on the sack, and the millet flowed into a line and fell to the ground, causing the crowd to riot.

Sun Xiao shouted: “Are there any men who want to eat? Come and join the army, take care of yourself!”

The recruitment of 20,000 people only took four days.

The suitable refugees in the city were all sent to the military camp, and many poor people in the villages flooded into the city of Haozhou when they heard that they could have enough to eat.

It can only be said that at this point in time, it is very important to be able to eat enough.

The taste of hunger, Wang Meng experienced it personally, it was a forcibly pain, and the internal organs seemed to be broken.

It is very important for refugees to be able to eat enough as a soldier.

……

On the school field in the east of the city, Wang Meng and the others were training soldiers.

Wang Meng took the veterans along with these recruits to go through the process of running, stabbing, and standing in line.

When the veterans are not at all tired, these newcomers are staggering.

Wang Meng stopped training and looked at Wang Degui next to him: “Sweat more and bleed less, training must not be slack.”

“Brother, don’t look at these young men’s health now. If you are weak, you are hungry.”

“Eat half a month’s full meal for ten days, and each one will definitely grow up three times.” Wang Degui opened the mouth and said.

I saw those soldiers who kept on completing their training even if they fainted from running, and saw the perseverance in their eyes.

Wang Meng nods, agreeing with Wang Degui’s words.

The previous training of 3,000 soldiers was the result of Wang Meng’s gradual exploration and training with his subordinates.

Naturally, I understand that being a soldier is not just about physical fitness, but also about the spirit.

Physical fitness can be trained, but not everyone has the heart to not be afraid of death.

The brave one wins!

Especially on the battlefield.

A solid psychological quality is the basis for a qualified soldier.

“Take good training, remember what I said, these refugees are not full yet, and they are the most obedient.”

“Just take advantage of the fact that General must has ordered discipline now. It is poured into their minds, for those who violate the military order, must be strictly punished without showing any sympathy.”

“The more severe it is now, the more severe it is, the less you will violate the military order on the battlefield.”

“What we want are soldiers who can obey military orders, dare to swing a knife on the battlefield, and do not run away. Even if their physical fitness is poor, they are still elite soldiers.”

Wang Degui heard the words and quickly nodded.

“Brother, don’t worry, I know, I will emphasize discipline.”

“I would rather jump out and chop off those disobedient people now than want to have one on the battlefield. Mice shit.”

Wang Meng made a mess of soup, “It’s good to be determined.”

“After a month, let’s take these soldiers out to practice and dye their hands. Some blood is the best!”
