Chapter 233: The Formation of the Water Army
Gan Ning was a little suspicious of the potter's idea, but the other water thief leaders didn't care about that, and after listening to the potter's words, they all seemed very excited!
You can join the official army, you can garrison the county, you can also recruit soldiers and horses by yourself, and there is even hope that you can rule a county alone in the future!
This is no different from the monopoly and the private soldiers! It is impossible for ordinary scholars to do this, and looking at the entire Han Dynasty, those who can do this are only the world's most prominent clans.
This Danyang County Shou is also very fucking generous!
Is there something wrong with him, his brain is not normal?
Originally, these water thief leaders just thought that after joining the water army of Danyang County, they could continue to be in charge of their original subordinates, use them as prestige, and continue to exploit them, but they didn't expect the potters to give everyone such a generous treatment all of a sudden!
This trick is also worth it! Whoever doesn't accept the trick is a fool!
I saw that the leaders of the water Kou led by Liu Zhai all showed joyful looks, and they all bowed their hands one after another, and said loudly to the Tao Shang's righteous words: "The prince of the mansion is so righteous, what hope do we have for the future?" I don't have a word to wait, and I will serve the king of the government in the future! ”
The pottery merchant nodded with satisfaction and exclaimed: "In this way, the merchant will not treat you badly, and you will wait and see in the future." ”
Although the potter's face was full of warm smiles at the moment, he was already secretly sneering in his heart.
Don't be shy, sooner or later, let yourselves in your place.
Among them, only Gan Ning and Zhou Tai did not answer this conversation.
Gan Ning had some understanding of the true heart of the potter, but Zhou Tai felt that this matter was too ridiculous.
What the potters are now adopting is an expedient measure, similar to simplifying the hereditary military leadership system that has been used by the Soochow regime in history, and taking over the power to deal with these water thieves first.
Historically, the Eastern Wu was far away from the Central Plains, and its local system was very different from that of the northern part of the Central Plains, and it belonged to a pure martial regime.
The military system of the Eastern Wu regime was promulgated and implemented in the upper class and among the powerful and powerful, and this regulation could make some of the local powerful have the authority to recruit private soldiers, of course, this is also because the southeast land at that time was far away from the cultural center, and the status of the Sun clan in the scholar clan was not very high, and the regime that had to be adopted had to be adopted, although to a certain extent alleviated the contradiction between the supreme leader and the landlord and powerful class, but in the long run, it was a negative means to let the barbaric growth of the powerful below and make the high-level power empty.
Tao Shang was anxious to obey the power, and because he had other plans in his heart, he temporarily turned the hereditary leader into a simple system, and appeased these water thieves, and after defeating Yuan Shu, he would not pay attention to it.
A group of reckless men who can only burn, kill and loot, and have no cultural ink, see who we cry and beg for in the future.
The potter exchanged pleasantries with the leaders of the water thieves for a while, and then suddenly said to the leaders of the thieves: "Everyone, go outside with me first, gather the brothers of the whole camp, I have something to distribute to the water thief brothers who are about to belong to Danyang County, and I still have something to explain to the big guys!" ”
Speaking of this, the potter blinked, as if he didn't feel right, and suddenly smiled again.
"It's wrong, it shouldn't be water thieves anymore, but the brothers of the official army!"
All the thieves are immersed in boundless joy at this moment, where will they think so much, what the potter says, they will respond.
……
……
Outside the tent, Zhou Tai ordered everyone to gather all the pirate soldiers stationed here.
When I was young, I saw a large group of people gathered in the open space in the middle of the camp.
In the camp, the water thieves in tattered clothes and all kinds of clothes gathered in front of a newly built high platform in the clearing, and looked at the leaders who were talking and laughing and walking towards this side with puzzlement.
The potter nodded to the leaders of the water thieves, then walked slowly up to the high platform, glanced at the people below, and spoke loudly.
"Brothers, I have summoned you here today to tell you something important, and many of you should already know it, but I still have to repeat it...... Truth be told, the next is the king of thieves who has just recently been appointed as the leader of the Yangtze River Waterway Alliance, at the same time, I am also the county keeper pottery merchant of Danyang County, Tao came here today, is to seek the consent of the owner of the village, and invite all the heroes in the field to enter Yangzhou together, from the record of household registration, from now on everyone will no longer be a thief, but an innocent body! And it's also an official and military identity! It is the most reliable shield of the Han Dynasty and the most trustworthy warrior. ”
As soon as the words came out, I saw that all the thieves were talking about each other, muttering endlessly.
The potter waved his hand and motioned to the water thieves around the high platform to stop making noise and continue to listen to him.
But the voices of the water thieves did not seem to have stopped because of the potter's stopping, but were noisy and whispering, and the sound became louder and louder, and no matter how much the potter waved his hand, he could not make them quiet.
The thieves were a little overexcited, chattering endlessly.
Tao Gongzi's face was a little unbearable, and he wanted to scold a few people, but he held his own identity, but he was embarrassed to say dirty words in front of so many people.
Xuzhou Tao Gongzi's gentlemanly style is unparalleled in the world, if he shows his cowardice in front of so many people, and turns back to talk a lot, and spreads his uncivilized behavior to the ears of outsiders, how will the golden signboard of Taiping Gongzi be mixed in the circle of literati and scholars in the future?
Therefore, it is difficult to be a gentleman.
It's even harder to be a gentleman who wants to be faced.
I still have to find a representative to speak the dirty words in my heart for myself.
Thinking of this, the potter turned his head and glanced at Gan Ning in the audience.
Gan Ning is also quite spiritual at the moment.
The brocade thief heard the strings and knew the elegance, the big eyes of the copper bell glared, jumped up, and jumped directly on the high platform.
met the hidden gaze of the potter, but saw that the Taiping prince raised his eyebrows at Gan Ning, and then scolded at the noisy thieves in the audience.
Gan Ning understood what he meant, and shouted at the audience.
"Shut the fuck up for Lao Tzu! Who dares to squeak again, Lao Tzu will kill his whole family! ”
Gan Ning's voice was very loud, and a loud roar almost shook the four fields and resounded through the mountains and forests.
After shouting a sentence, I saw that the water thieves in the field immediately shut up, silent.
Obviously, they knew a lot more about this brocade thief than the ethereal One Piece.
This madman dares to do anything, he says to kill your whole family, then he is a lie at all, and he really dares to destroy you.
Offstage, Zhou Tai buried his face in the palm of his hand with some shame.
Gan Ning's guy is really a shame among the thieves.
The potter looked at Gan Ning appreciatively and gave him a big thumbs up in his heart.
Gan Ning scolded his inconvenient voice in public, and the potter felt very happy.
It's better to have a representative.
"Brothers!" Seeing that the audience was quiet, the potter immediately said to everyone in a loud voice: "I know that everyone is a little difficult to accept for a while, you have been a good man who has been robbing houses on the Yangtze River for many years...... If it is in a peaceful and prosperous era, you are likely to be the heroes of the good people who protect one side, but in troubled times, the world is chaotic, you have to fall into the thief road for the sake of life, Tao pities your heroic talent, and recruits you into the army with the newly established Danyang County Water Division! In the army, you can do your best, earn military merits, and benefit future generations, Tao swore to heaven that as long as there is a pottery merchant one day, he will be rewarded impartially, and will never treat every brother present. ”
When the words fell, I saw that the water thieves began to talk about each other again, and vaguely, it seemed that they could still hear their muttering words......
"Really?"
"You can't lie to us, right?"
"The people of the imperial court generally don't seem to be very credible......
"This kid has long eyebrows and beautiful eyes, a nose and eyes, and he is not handsome like a good person......"
Gan Ning took a deep breath and yelled again: "If you don't want to be destroyed, shut up Lao Tzu!" ”
There was silence again.
However, it was obvious that several water thieves were glaring at Gan Ning with angry faces, and they were very unconvinced by the arrogance of this brocade thief.
In the crowd, vaguely, someone seemed to say: "It's a thief, a rotten life, how can there be anything full of people to destroy - fool." ”
Gan Ning was furious when he heard this, and jumped to his feet and said angrily: "Which bastard said that?" Get out of the heads-up for Lao Tzu! ”
"Oops~!" Tao Shang hurriedly raised his hand to block Gan Ning's words, turned his head to look at the soldiers below with a smile, and said warmly: "Although Tao doesn't know who said that sentence just now, but it said to Tao's heart, brothers, perennial thieves, most of them must still be single, the so-called unfilial piety has three, no queen is great, although Danyang County is rich, but the population is extremely scarce, if the brothers all join Danyang County, this lifelong event, Tao will definitely find a way to help everyone solve it!" Eugenics is an important measure in my Danyang County! ”
When these words came out, the emotions of the water thieves were obviously a little boiling.
The thieves began to talk to each other again, but they were obviously a little more happy than the hesitation just now.
A water thief had the courage to shout at the potter, "King of Thieves! If I become an official soldier, can you really manage my sleeping mother-in-law's affairs? ”
The potter pointed at the thief and swore an oath: "This brother asked a good question!" The good thing? Fortunately, he asked a question related to the vital interests of the people - celibacy and no queen will never be allowed in our Danyang County, from Tao's point of view, not only to care about the problem of your mother-in-law, but also to care about the problem of how many babies you can give birth to after sleeping with your mother-in-law! These are all within the planned livelihood of our people in Danyang County. ”
The water thieves were excited.
Tao clapped his hands and continued: "Our Danyang County pays attention to democracy, and we will never force people to do it, if you agree to recruit An to join the army, Tao will immediately distribute grain and straw, and everyone present can immediately receive a piece of grain according to the head, and if you don't want to leave immediately, Tao will definitely not stop you." ”
