As soon as the veteran said this, the surrounding recruits were in an uproar.
As a subject under the rule of Marquis Quyang, who doesn't know that the "Quyang New Army" has generous treatment and extremely high pensions?
Marquis Quyang really had nothing to say about his treatment of the soldiers of the new army - many people had heard of or even seen with their own eyes the equipment of the soldiers of the new army in Quyang. Those long swords, swords, crossbows, etc. were excluded. The two pieces of armor alone showed how much the young monarch cherished the lives of his soldiers.
A set of leather armor, a set of iron armor - in this vast world, which other army has such luxurious equipment?
I'm afraid even the king's personal guards are no more than this!
The Quyang New Army represents strong combat power, good treatment, and the honor of winning repeated battles... The recruits came to join the army, running for the battle flag of 'Quyang New Army'.
Now that I heard that the Quyang New Army has no plans to expand its army...the recruits started to panic!
"After a long time of trouble, we were not recruited into the Quyang Army?"
"Establish another army? What do you mean? What kind of army?"
The veterans knew this already. Seeing these new recruits as anxious as young boys, they couldn't help but laugh: "Why are you so worried, second and third sons? No matter which army you are in, as long as you serve the Lord, you will be treated well!"
"Are you still afraid that the little prince will treat you unfairly?"
As soon as these words came out, all the recruits shut up.
really.
Although our Lord treats outsiders with lies and deceit... no, he is very resourceful!
But when it comes to treating your own people, you really have nothing to say!
Regardless of whether you are an official or a soldier, as long as you serve your master wholeheartedly, you will receive top-notch treatment! Take the salary of sergeants as an example. As long as you join the new army, you will not only receive a very high salary, but the whole family will be able to live in a spacious cement house, and the agricultural tax paid by the family will be greatly reduced.
If you can achieve military exploits, the rewards such as various houses, fields, livestock, money, etc. will be extremely generous.
If unfortunately he is killed or disabled in battle... the Lord will never just hand out a small amount of money like most nobles do - not only will he have a very high pension, but he can even leave a place for future generations to enter.' Quyang Academy' study.
Where is Quyang Academy?
That is the cradle of officials!
Have you not seen that many of the previous generations of academy students have become officials in the four counties?
Even if his studies were a bit poor and he failed to pass the official examination... he could at least rely on his ability to read and calculate accounts for the merchants in the market, thereby earning a salary that was much higher than what he could get from hard work.
Since the monarch treats Quyang's new army well... Even if he wants to set up a new army now, there is no reason to treat everyone harshly.
"Ahem, what kind of army will the monarch build? Do you seniors have any idea?" Some recruits respectfully asked for advice.
All the veterans looked at each other and smiled - even though the young master had not yet notified him, they all had already guessed in their hearts.
"Second and third sons, please wait for a while and you will know soon." A veteran said.
…
After a while, the side door of the school grounds opened.
All the recruits had been waiting eagerly for a long time. Now that they heard the noise, they immediately stood on tiptoes——
I saw dozens of fast horses galloping in!
It was obvious that the people on the horse could not be Chu people - Chu people could not have such exquisite riding skills! Soon the distance was getting closer, and all the recruits could see clearly - the riders on the horses clearly looked like soldiers!
After a small commotion, the recruits fell silent!
Because those Rongren riders showed strength that shocked everyone——
The leader, a burly man with long braids and a scar on his face, was galloping on the horse. Then he leaned forward, clamped his legs, and firmly fixed himself on the horse's back, like an old tree. Just as stable and reliable on the ground. Then the rider bent his bow and set an arrow...
call out!
call out!
Shoot ten arrows in a row, and the arrows hit the target!
Despite their deep-seated disdain for the Rong people, the ten thousand recruits still let out a chorus of exclamations.
The veterans stroked their beards and smiled - just as they expected.
The young master's plan to "train another army" is to train a cavalry!
Xiao Junhou captured many war horses in the battle that just ended - it was not a secret among these veterans.
If you have war horses, of course you need to train cavalry!
Even though they have been mentally prepared, these veterans who have fought bloody battles are still deeply shocked by the riding and shooting skills of these Rong rider... A common question arises in everyone's mind - can we really practice like this? ?
The burliest Rongman nimbly turned over and dismounted. At first glance, he looked like an iron tower - it was hard to imagine that such a tall and majestic body could be so flexible on horseback.
The big man stepped onto the high platform, built up his momentum, and then shouted loudly——
"Listen, my name is Ge Suyi, and I have been ordered by Marquis Quyang to train the three armies!"
"Ten thousand recruits, follow me and my tribe to practice riding combat - after three months, the eagle will stay and the lamb will get out!"
After that, Ge Suyi made a big move, and another soldier raised a brand new flag with red letters on a yellow background. There were three big characters on the flag - 'Xiong Cavalry Army'.
Gesu Yi said loudly: "This is the military name decided by Quyanghou himself. After three months, those who pass the examination will stay under this flag to fight for Quyanghou."
The flag caused quite a stir.
Many veterans who had served in the Quyang New Army had their pupils constricted - compared with the 'Quyang New Army', the flag of the 'Xiong Cavalry Army' was the same in size, regulation and font.
Obviously, the status of this heroic cavalry army in the heart of the lord is no less than that of Quyang's new army, which has proven its strong combat power to the whole world.
…
The scene was not lively, it could even be said to be a bit cold.
Although our Chu country is regarded as a 'southern barbarian' by the Central Plains countries, and is at the end of the contempt chain among many vassal states... But in the eyes of the Chu people, we are still nobler than those out-and-out 'barbarians' .
At the thought of actually having those Rongdi people to be their instructors, and even having to endure their criticism of their combat prowess...most of the recruits had a look of displeasure on their faces.
Ge Suyi didn't mind at all - maybe the reckless man didn't see the slight disdain in everyone's eyes.
"Each form your own formations and get ready to start training!" Ge Suyi ordered with a wave of his hand.
…
The weather is getting warmer - although the spring wind is still a bit chilly, the snow on the ground has completely disappeared.
The three officials, Qu Yuan, Zhao Hua and Shen Dao, were very busy - according to Qu Yang Yin Qu Yuan's plan, it was time to start promoting a new round of reform decrees in the fiefdom.
Qu Yuan and the others continued to implement the next reform strategy with reference to the laws of many countries.
In this process, the legalist master's caution played a great role, and he was often able to analyze the outlines of various countries' reforms in theory, which attracted Qu Yuan's admiration.
