"Pass the order, all units will rest for a quarter of an hour."
"In a quarter of an hour, enter the mountain!"
Li Jinghong looked stern, as if he didn't notice the low morale of the inspection team at all, and issued the order.
He Ping hesitated for a while, then summoned up the courage to admonish:
"Sir, if the thief dares to ambush like this, he must have completely controlled Qili Village. Why don't we send someone back to the county first to explain the situation and wait until support arrives."
Li Jinghong looked at He Ping and asked: "There are only more than thirty households in Qili Village and less than thirty strong men. We have two hundred armored men. What should we fear?"
After saying that, Li Jinghong thought to himself again:
"The rioters in Qili Village violently resisted the conscription, ignored the imperial power, killed the patrol inspector, and then gathered a crowd to ambush and killed more than ten people on the imperial patrol inspection..."
"Such behavior is tantamount to rebellion!"
"If you don't punish those who rebel against the party, how long will it take?"
Hearing this, He Ping was slightly startled, and then immediately realized that the patrol from above was about to arrive. If this butt was not wiped clean quickly, everyone would lose their heads if the people above discovered it!
Immediately, He Ping asked tentatively: "Sir, would you like to send someone to investigate again?"
"If the traitor hadn't ambushed like this just now, I might still be a little wary!"
"But there was such a good opportunity just now, and the rebels didn't take advantage of it to cover up the enemy. It means that the rebels don't dare to confront us head-on. They are just bluffing to make us afraid!"
"So, what's there to be afraid of!"
As he spoke, Li Jinghong glanced at the demoralized inspectors: "Go and tell them that in this battle, whoever dares to disobey military orders or shake the morale of the army will be killed, and his whole family will be sent to a hard labor camp!"
"In addition, this battle is to suppress the rebels. We should be rewarded according to the military merits of the imperial court. You will also inform us."
"I humble my duty and obey my orders."
He Ping clasped his fists in response and left.
When the order was issued, there was a bustle in this temporary station, but soon, under the threat of the military order, the noise turned into whispers.
The deterrence of killing all military orders lies in the individual, while the deterrence of the corvee camp is undoubtedly to completely cut off the escape route of the corvee on the scene.
Although corvee labor in the mines is hard, generally speaking, the chance of serving half a year of corvee safely is not small.
But the corvee camp is obviously completely different.
The so-called corvee camp refers to the place where criminals were sent to the mines to work.
He had to work in hard camps for as many years as he was sentenced.
The life of a normal corvee is, in a sense, quite valuable. If someone dies in a mine, Qinghe County will provide him with a pension.
But the corvee labor in the corvee camp is obviously completely different.
Whichever job is the most dangerous in the mine, that's what the corvee in the labor camp does.
If you die, you will die. Life is like a piece of grass, not worth mentioning!
Who can be unafraid of such a punishment if he has parents and children?
Chu Mu was alone in his family. Although he was frightened by the punishment, he didn't care too much.
What he was concerned about was what He Ping said just now about being rewarded according to the military merits of the imperial court!
Inspection is half a military job, so he naturally understands the so-called imperial military merit awards.
Those below the rank of corps commander will be judged for military merit by beheading.
For corps commanders and above, military merit is judged by command. For example, in a war, the corps commander or a higher-level general will command the battle damage of the headquarters, the results of the battle, and how well the orders were obeyed...
The main one is the calculation of positive and negative gains and losses, and Chu Mu doesn't know much about it.
But Chu Mu knew a lot about the military merit system of decapitation for those below the rank of corps commander.
After all, he is just a pawn...
According to the reward system, if an ordinary soldier is beheaded in a war, he will be rewarded with thirty silver coins, and his parents and children will be exempted from corvee service for three years.
If you are beheaded to the fifth level, your military rank will be promoted to one level, your parents and children will be exempted from corvee service for ten years, and you will be rewarded with two hundred silver.
Behead ten levels, upgrade the military rank by two levels, exempt parents and children from corvee service for life, and receive ten gold rewards!
As for beheading accomplices, they will not be promoted in military rank, but will be rewarded with gold and silver per head.
There is no doubt that this military merit reward system gives low-level soldiers an opportunity to rise to the top almost in one step.
Beheading level ten means your military rank will rise by two levels!
He was promoted directly from an ordinary soldier to a corps commander, with dozens of soldiers under his command!
Like in an ordinary small town, there are only a few dozen patrol soldiers, which is only one corps. The corps leader is almost the boss of the town!
Even in an important place like Nanshan Town, where the establishment is special, there are only two hundred households, nearly five hundred inspections, and a total of only a dozen corps commanders.
This was undoubtedly beyond Chu Mu's expectations.
After all, the imperial court's military merit reward system was for serious troubles that had been registered with the imperial court.
Such as the rebels who swept across the land and alerted the court, such as the war against the barbarians.
This kind of petty quarrel in a small village has nothing to do with the imperial court's military merit reward system.
At most, the county can draw up some rewards.
The greater possibility is that it is the normal accumulation of merit and promotion in the inspection department system.
According to Chu Mu's original idea, he should show off a little and try to win the attention of the people above him.
This time I want to die more and free up some seats to see if he can have a chance to sit.
Of course, the premise of all this is to ensure your own safety.
Just like the arrow rain attack just now, you have to ensure your own safety first.
The result was such a big sweet date smashed over.
The dates are too big and too sweet!
Chu Mu was very moved.
This tangible return is undoubtedly much more realistic than Li Gang's personal and illusory promise.
Although he does not have much desire for power and status, he
After being in this world for more than a month, it is not difficult to see that in this era, without rights and status, a person is really not a person!
Even without certain rights and status, many things cannot be seen!
Now that the opportunity to fight for power and status is before him, how can he not be tempted?
Chu Mu took a bite of the dry food that was handed out and chewed it slowly, his eyes twinkling as if he had become determined.
Wealth and wealth are found in danger.
He is alone in this world.
Being helpless means that nothing in this world can be gained without hard work.
If you want to get something, you have to give something.
This risk is worth taking!
After swallowing the last mouthful of dry food, Chu Mu grabbed a handful of snow and rubbed his face hard.
The bone-deep coldness also stimulated Chu Mu's nerves along with the rubbing of his palms.
Chu Mu was very conscious and confirmed that he was not filled with passion.
"Brother Mu, are you ready to give it a try?"
Xu Yuan looked at Chu Mu worriedly.
"right."
Chu Mu nodded firmly.
Then he patted Xu Yuan on the shoulder and said seriously: "Don't be afraid. I have seen the geography of the area before. There are only about thirty households in Qili Village, and they have been forced into corvee several times. Now the number of people is absolutely not much."
"Those who dare to rebel are definitely a minority!"
"There are so many of us. As long as you hide behind and don't rush too far forward. If you just pretend, there won't be much danger."
"Brother Mu..."
Xu Yuan wanted to persuade, but was stopped by Chu Mu.
"Don't worry, kid, I cherish my life much more than you do, and I won't do anything random."
Chu Mu looked equally serious. He was not passionate and he was very self-aware.
This is just a preliminary choice made after distinguishing the pros and cons of interests.
If the real thing cannot be done, he will not act recklessly and will continue to weigh the gains and losses.
