Nie Chen selected several old people from Shanzhai as confidants to serve as management and be responsible for the management of various projects.
Let them coordinate manpower arrangements.
The entire Qingfeng Village has entered a period of major construction.
Inside the vacant school grounds, there were workers building houses outside, and soldiers lined up neatly inside.
Yes, according to Nie Chen's request, these people will no longer be called bandits, but soldiers.
If you want them to receive training, learn military formations, and go into battle to kill the enemy, you must change their previous mentality of just waiting to die and plundering their homes. Then you must first change their names.
There are 300 old people in the village, and more than 200 people have surrendered in Heifengling. These are all homeless desperadoes, truly carefree people, and the other 500 people are the people who were just recruited today. .
Nie Chen took the trouble to ask them one by one why they were willing to serve as soldiers. Some of them had their fields confiscated by the government and their families were starving to death. They wanted to be soldiers and killed the government officials to avenge their families.
Some are tempted by the high salary and think they have enough money to eat, so they become soldiers.
Some are more idealistic and feel that Qingfeng Village is different from other bandits. If they don't bully the people, they will definitely be able to carve out a world in this troubled world. They can have a future by following Qingfeng Village.
No matter what the reason was, Nie Chen was not worried at all that they would run away when they went into battle to kill the enemy.
When the time comes, the enemy will naturally force them to fight to the death, and daily training and strict military discipline will also change their minds.
The leader stood in front of thousands of soldiers and shouted loudly,
"From today on, you are no longer bandits, but soldiers, soldiers who protect your homeland and your loved ones!
Soldiers must behave like soldiers. According to the Dafeng military system, ten people form a team, hundreds of people form a large team, and thousands of people form a battalion!
Although we only have one battalion of men and horses now, we still have to follow the most formal training.
Below, I come up with a list of names for each captain and captain. "
The captain is a captain of ten, and the captain is a centurion.
The commander of thousands is the commander, the commander of ten thousand is the general, and the leader of the family is the commander of ten thousand.
Just when the headmaster was about to read out the list, a young man suddenly stood up and said,
"As the boss, I think I can at least be the head of the capital!"
Hearing this, the headmaster, Da Zhuang and Nie Chen all looked over and saw that this man was probably in his twenties, but he was tall, with a Chinese character face, a short beard, thick arms, not fat but powerful. .
"What's your name? Why do you think you can be the head of the capital?"
The headmaster was not angry but happy, and asked with a smile.
He could tell that the person in front of him must have been in the military, and he was very familiar with his stance.
It was a standard military stance, upright and erect, and able to take action at any time. The whole body was in a tight state and could enter combat mode at any time.
"Report to the master! The villain's name is Lin Guang, and he was the commander of the fifth battalion of the first legion, second legion, and second legion under King Anton!
He commanded thousands of men and participated in eighteen battles of all sizes, winning seventeen and losing one. "
"Oh? Why did the people under King Anton come to my Qingfeng Village?"
The headmaster asked curiously.
"Reporting to the boss, the villain went out drinking with his colleagues. In the tavern, he came across the county governor's son raping a civilian girl in the street. He was so angry that he stopped him and accidentally beat the county governor's son to death.
The county guard sent money to the commander of the Second Corps and asked him to detain me and kill me the next day.
Fortunately, my colleagues tipped me off that night and rescued me from the military prison.
The villain was unwilling to have his martial arts skills buried, and he was unwilling to serve King Anton anymore, so he absconded all the way and prepared to go to King Pingxi's territory to seek refuge.
Yesterday when I fled to Xiaozhuang Village, I fainted from hunger and was rescued by local villagers. Today I met people from Qingfeng Village who went to recruit soldiers. After asking about it, I found out that the heroes of Qingfeng Village are benevolent and righteous, and the boss is philanthropic, so I wanted to come here. Take a look, if it suits you, stay, if not, continue to seek refuge with King Pingxi. "
Hearing this, the leader smiled and said,
"You are honest enough. If you tell me this, aren't you afraid that I will stop you and prevent you from working for King Pingxi?"
"you will not."
Lin Guangda walked towards the headmaster's house. Da Zhuang became alert when he saw this and stopped him.
"Master, I know you."
Lin Guang said seriously.
"oh?"
The headmaster frowned slightly and looked at Lin Guang with interest.
Lin Guang said word by word,
"The villain has been in the army for five years, fought eighteen battles, big and small, and won seventeen times, all of which were led by the villain himself. The only defeat was when he fought with the regiment.
At that time, the villain was still a centurion and followed the army to attack Linping City, a city under the jurisdiction of King Pingxi. As a result, he encountered the third corps of the Pingye Army under King Pingxi and was defeated by the third corps. The villain relied on his strong martial arts to get lucky. Escaped with a life.
The general of the Third Corps of the Pingye Army was called Weng Huan. "
Hearing this, the heads of the eldest family, Da Zhuang and Weng Qiuchan, suddenly shrank their eyes, while Nie Chen became interested and looked at the eldest master with amusement in his eyes.
Oh, you never told me which king you served before, but now I finally know, it turned out to be King Pingxi.
Lin Guang said seriously,
"The boss and the villain are all truthful and honest. When they came to the village and saw you, the villain decided not to leave.
If the master thinks that the villain can be used, the villain is willing to help!
If you feel that the villain was an enemy in the past and are worried that the villain will leak the secret, you can kill the villain, and the villain will not complain at all. "
"King Pingxi has countless strong generals under his command, as well as several excellent commanders. Why did you choose me, an expired general who turned into a bandit?"
"Because I know you, you are highly skilled in martial arts, you love soldiers like a son, and you have a benevolent and righteous heart for the people and soldiers. While other generals slaughtered the city at every turn, you treated the people as human beings.
Master, the person who knows you best is often your enemy. Over the years, I have been studying your martial arts and battle formations, hoping that one day I can become a general and defeat you on the battlefield. Unfortunately, I I don't have this opportunity anymore. Now that I have the opportunity to meet you, the wise master, I am naturally willing to do my best. "
"Hahaha, don't say you don't have a chance, I'll give you this chance!"
The master became interested and turned to Da Zhuang and said,
"Go and get my Qinglong Sword!"
"Dad, you have old wounds on your body, you can't use force anymore!"
Weng Qiuchan quickly grabbed the boss.
"It's okay, it's just a competition, not a real fight to the death. Brother Lin has always said that he is highly skilled in martial arts. I also want to see what his true strength is. I can't bury such a talent."
The headmaster looked at Lin Guang again and asked,
"What weapon do you want?"
"The boss, the villain is the heir of the Lin family's gun."
"Oh? Lin's gun?"
The headmaster's eyes lit up instantly.
