Chapter 859: Who Doesn't Want to Follow
"Heard," "heard," "heard," ,,,
The soldiers all responded one by one, but the voices were not very loud, and the boss looked reluctant,
At this time, it is estimated that they are all thinking about the same in their hearts, the court has not paid military salaries for three months, and now they are embarrassed to ask me to go to war, and I will beat your grandma!
Hearing the sparse response below, Sun Chuanting smiled expressionlessly, unable to tell whether he was happy or angry.
When Qiu Dangkou finished speaking, Sun Chuanting strode to the center of the point platform, and then solemnly pressed his hand to the sergeants below, and then said: "I know that you are reluctant and unwilling, because the imperial court did not pay you, so that you and your family are hungry, so you have such an attitude, I don't blame you!" ”
was broken by Sun Chuanting's words, and many people lowered their heads and didn't dare to go to see Sun Chuanting on the stage.
At this time, Sun Chuanting continued: "This time the thieves and soldiers are coming, the lives of the people are miserable, you are a soldier, you have an unshirkable responsibility, but the ancients, the emperor is not a hungry soldier, I also know your difficulties, so I specially asked the prefect for you to ask for a military salary, and now, I will send you three months' military salary!" ”
As soon as Sun Chuanting's words came out, everyone looked at him with enthusiasm, they were all in disbelief, and they were all paid! Is it true that it will be reissued for three months?
But they couldn't believe it, Sun Chuanting made a big move, and more than a dozen people carried mouthfuls of wooden boxes, just walked in front of everyone, opened it and looked, and suddenly there was a white light, choking people's eyes!
Not only that, but many people also pulled one cart after another aside, and there were bags of grain on them!
It's true, it's true, it's really going to be paid!
Many people looked at the white silver and the cart of grain, and they were full of emotion, thinking that they were finally going to receive food and silver, and that the days were finally hopeful, and many people couldn't help crying.
"Where's the quartermaster?"
Sun Chuanting shouted violently.
"The lower official is here."
A man in his forties ran in front of Sun Chuanting and knelt on one knee, just waiting for Sun Chuanting's order.
There are two people, Lord Prefect and Qiu Dangkou, who endorse Sun Chuanting, and now anyone knows that this scholar in front of him is the head of this army, who dares to slack off!
Sun Chuanting didn't procrastinate, but said: "Now I order you to pay each soldier three months' salary, and there must be no half a penny deduction, but there is a difference, I will ask you!" ”
"Your Majesty!"
The quartermaster received the order, did not dare to slack off, and immediately recruited a few subordinates, and then each of them held an account book in his hand, and began to roll call and pay.
"Wang Laosan," "In,"
"If you are a soldier in the army, you should be issued one tael of silver and one stone of grain every month, and now you will be paid three taels of silver and three stones of grain at a time, and you should be issued three taels of silver and three stones of grain in reality.
"Oops, hey,,,"
The soldier named Wang Laosan responded again and again, took the three taels of silver with one hand, bit it with his mouth, and saw that it was real silver, and the amount was not bad, and he ran to see the three stones of grain, which were all good grains, not the old grains that he usually received.
Wang Laosan was extremely excited, and he couldn't help it anymore, so he shouted: "No less, no less, no less!" ”
Shouting and shouting, Wang Laosan just collapsed on the ground and cried loudly.
When everyone saw this, they all knew that this time it was a real payment of military salaries, and there was no half-point deduction, and they were all speechless in shock, and then everyone was on fire, like a fire burning!
This is not to blame them, you must know that the Ming Dynasty has come to this day, and the matter of actual military salaries has long been non-existent.
These big-headed soldiers say that they say that they are talking about one tael of silver and one stone of grain every month, but when they get it in their hands, they can thank God for half of it, and sometimes they can't even get thirty percent!
Now there is a real hair, what is the concept, that is, the actual military salary for these three months, and the top is more than half a year in peacetime, which makes these soldiers not excited!
Seeing these soldiers crying and wiping their tears one by one, the prefect Yao Musheng was a look of disdain, Qiu Ba is Qiu Ba, it is really unseemly!
Too lazy to stay here for a long time, Yao Musheng just told Sun Chuanting a few times, and then went back in a sedan chair.
When the military salary is finished, and then look at everyone, one by one, they raise their heads and chests, and their eyes are bright, this spiritual outlook is really new!
Seeing this, Sun Chuanting is also a lot more relieved, in the face of hunger, in the face of poverty, how can there be any big reason, no matter what you say, there is no bowl of fragrant rice, there is no silver ingot!
In order to pay the military salary for these three months at a time, Sun Chuanting really took great pains, I don't know how much saliva was spent, this is how to persuade Yao Musheng to transfer money and food from the treasury!
At this time, Sun Chuanting strode to the front of the general stage again, this time, without the endorsement of others, all the sergeants looked at him in unison, and their eyes were full of heat.
Soldiers are like this, there is no flowery intestines, whoever is good to them, they will obey whom, this time they can receive three months' military salary at a time, you don't have to think about it to know whose credit it is, where can you still disobey him!
Looking at the almost brand-new soldiers below, Sun Chuanting said neatly: "This time the thieves are attacking Fucheng, as soldiers, it is your duty to protect your family and defend the country, I will take you to fight a bloody road, do you dare to follow me!" ”
"Dare!" "Dare!" "Dare!" ,,,
The soldiers below all responded loudly, the sound was wave after wave, it was obvious that these soldiers were all at home to Sun Chuanting!
Just kidding, who wouldn't want to follow such a person?
"Okay, you have the courage, I am very pleased, my Sun Chuanting will lead you to win this battle!"
However, when Sun Chuanting said this, he changed his words and said: "However, many of you are either too young or too old to participate in this battle, so I want to make a selection of you!" ”
After speaking, Sun Chuanting suddenly shouted: "All the sergeants obey orders, anyone under the age of sixteen and over forty years old will be listed!" ”
As soon as these words came out, there was a commotion below, and many people who were said to be old by Sun Chuanting were unwilling and reluctantly stood up.
