Chapter 1424: Assignment

Chapter 1424 Assignment of ranks

"Okay, is there anyone who has not received the military salary?" Zhu Pingan stood on the **** and asked everyone loudly.

"My lord, we have all received it." Everyone on the **** replied in unison, feeling the one-two-and-a-half taels of silver hidden close to their bodies, and everyone's face was filled with happiness and good longing for the future.

"Very good!" Zhu Pingan nodded, then glanced at everyone, and then said: "Everyone, the current military salary is one and a half taels of silver per month. I know, it is a little lower, but the current financial situation of the imperial court is tight, and I hope you will understand the imperial court. In addition, please rest assured that every month will be paid on time and in full, and I will do my best to apply to the imperial court for an appropriate increase in your military pay in the future."

"One tael and a half silver per month, not too low"

"What? The military pay will increase in the future."

Everyone couldn't help but smile when they heard that Zhu Ping'an would apply for an increase in their military pay in the future.

Actually, they are already satisfied with the military salary of one tael and a half silver per month and cannot be more satisfied. It can even be described by the word surprise. When they were bandits, it was an extravagant hope to have a full stomach. As for the legendary things like soldier pay, they had only heard of it, but never received it.

When they agreed to surrender, they boldly thought that if three meals a day were in charge of food, half a tael of silver a month would be enough for the soldiers.

Unexpectedly, Zhu Ping'an tripled their bold dream, and paid one or two and a half taels of silver every month.

Now they still say that they will try to improve in the future. They were hit by a huge surprise, and they were so excited that they couldn't control themselves.

"Your treatment, in addition to the military salary, there is also a silver reward. In the future, your reward silver will be distributed in units of teams. Every ten of you will form a team, that is, one army. Later, the official will assign you troops. In the future, For every team that kills one Japanese pirate, the official will reward you with thirty taels of silver. For killing ten Japanese pirates, you will be rewarded with three hundred taels of silver. For killing one hundred Japanese pirates, you will be rewarded with three thousand taels of silver! Don’t worry, as long as you can kill them, This officer will definitely cash in the rewards! Everyone train well, and kill a few more Japanese pirates in the future, then you will get rich."

Zhu Ping'an smiled and said to everyone, describing a wonderful and attractive "money" scene for everyone.

"Thirty taels of silver for killing one Japanese pirate?! Even for ten people, everyone can get three taels of silver! If ten Japanese pirates are killed, the reward is three hundred taels of silver, and each person can get thirty taels of silver. Isn’t that a fortune, plus the military salary, you can drop forty or fifty taels of silver a year, this money is enough to build a big house and marry a wife, hehe, life will be very happy in the future.”

"I didn't expect the heads of the Japanese pirates to be so valuable! If I knew it earlier, I would have gone to grab the heads of the Japanese pirates."

"You are stupid, you, we never met our lord before, you just killed the Japanese pirates, where do you go to get the reward?!"

"Where are the Japanese pirates! I can't wait to fight the Japanese pirates. Hehe, that's not fighting, it's just picking up money. In the future, I will point to these Japanese pirates to get rich and marry a wife!"

"I can't wait to go to the Japanese pirates now, don't let me meet the Japanese pirates, I must kill them!"

Hearing the silver reward plan announced by Zhu Ping'an, everyone immediately became excited. Fighting and killing Japanese pirates, which is a high-risk job with their heads pinned to their waistbands, they used to shy away from. On the road, everyone is eager to try, and can't wait to fight against the Japanese pirates.

"Okay! Everyone, be safe and don't be impatient. There will be opportunities to kill Japanese pirates in the future! You have received my salary, and you will be my soldiers from today! My name is Zhu Ping'an, and now I am serving the punishment of Jiangsu and Zhejiang. The matter, the official position is the fifth grade. I am ordered by the Holy One to reorganize the military equipment of Jiangsu and Zhejiang, raise the militia, and form a regiment. You are all soldiers of the regiment under my command. The regiment formed by me is tentatively named "Jiangsu and Zhejiang Regiment Training Army". Referred to as "Zhejiang Army"! You will be a member of the "Zhejiang Army" from now on! This official assures you that in the future, the military salary will be paid on time, and the rewards will be paid in full. The rewards and punishments will be strict! If this official violates the guarantee, everyone will Report to the Ministry of War of Yingtian, to the inspector censor of Zhejiang Province, and to report to the imperial court!"

Zhu Ping'an stretched out his hands and pressed down, appeasing everyone's excited mood, and said to everyone.

"We are the Zhejiang Army! We are the Zhejiang Army! Your Excellency is mighty! The Zhejiang Army is mighty!" Everyone shouted in unison.

Everyone is very excited, from today they have a name - Zhejiang Army! From now on, he will be a member of the Zhejiang Army.

"I assure you, and you should also assure me: obey the command and observe military discipline! If there is any violation, you will be severely punished!" Zhu Pingan glanced at the crowd with scorching eyes, and said in a stern voice.

"Don't worry, my lord, we will avoid obeying orders! Obey military discipline!" Everyone shouted again in unison.

"Very good! Let's start distributing the ranks now! Every ten people form a small team, that is, Wu Ye, and set up a captain; four small teams form a large team, that is, sentry, and set up a sentry leader; four large teams form a general team, that is, the general Yes, let’s set up one commander; the four commanders form a battalion, that is, the battalion, and set up a battalion commander! Did you hear clearly?!”

Zhu Ping'an stood on the **** and said loudly.

"Listen clearly!" Everyone on the **** replied loudly.

"Who will be the corporal commander, post commander, commander, and battalion commander?! How are they selected?!"

Everyone asked curiously and concernedly.

"I will read out the composition of each team first, and then I will announce the selection of the corps leader, post commander, general, and battalion commander later! Now I start to read out the list of each team, and those who read their names will come out. The order in which the names are read, with Wu as the unit, stands in a row in the open space on the right hand side of the official, the "Wu" that is pronounced first stands next to the official, and the "Wu" that is pronounced later are arranged next to each other to the left, everyone Do you hear everything clearly?" Zhu Pingan said loudly.

"Listen clearly!" Everyone replied.

"Very good, now start to announce the list of members of the First Corps, Zhu Daniu, Wang Ergou, Wang Tiezhu, Xia Beifeng, Gao Mian."

Zhu Ping'an stood on a high **** and read people's names aloud. After reading it every five times, he repeated it again to ensure that people could hear clearly.

Zhu Daniu, Wang Ergou and other people who heard their names came out from different directions of the crowd and came to the open space on the right hand side of Zhu Pingan, and got to know each other; then people from the second team, people from the third team, and people from the fourth team

Zhu Pingan did not organize the members of the various teams casually, but disrupted and disassembled the people in the three cottages for reorganization, so as to prevent the people from each cottage from clumping together. In the later group whistle, in general, it will also be based on this principle, disrupted and reconstructed, so as to control the entire group training.
