Please give me a little more support, thank you

One person took the lead, and the crowd opened an anthill like a thousand-mile causeway, first you looked at me, I looked at you, and soon, it was you who called me to take the family to sign up. Zhou Shi's promise to them was too tempting. Confused, they can't help but be unmoved.

The people who signed up are basically residents whose homes have been hit by fire, and they have nothing now, so they have no food or clothing and wait for death, so it is better to grit their teeth and believe it, in case what Xiucai said is true, wouldn't it be a pie smashed by the world! Besides, how can it be the army of the Ming Dynasty, no matter how bad it is, it can be worse than the Tartars?

You have to hurry, or they won't recruit you, and you won't regret it. After the people leave, whoever in the city cares whether they live or die, can still expect two more meals of gruel a day to hang their lives!

"After signing up, you'll be given food, clothing, and meat, won't you?"

"Yes!"

"Then the two taels of silver I said before are still being issued?"

"Hair, but only for the young, not for the elderly and children."

"Why don't the old people and children have any?"

"For before we did not take them, but now we do, and we will give them food, cloth, and meat to eat!"

"Oh? Yes! ”

"Xiucai, my second grandfather is blind, let me ask, can he also sign up?"

"That's fine, let him sign up."

"Xiucai, I still have some relatives in the mountains, if they are also willing to participate, will you accept them?"

"Close!"

“”

Zhou Shixiang can't count how many words he said, and he can't remember how many words he said against his will, such as blind people, lame people and other disabled people, he really doesn't know what he can do when he is accepted in, but the big words are ahead, and he can only respond to it head-on. As for how to settle them in the future, let's talk about it later.

continued to cash in on the two taels of silver issued to Qingzhuang, Zhou Shixiang didn't think it was worthless, these two taels of silver were actually life money. The silver can be given to them, but whether they can have a life flower depends on their creation. Besides, if they don't work hard, what will they do to feed their wives and children?

There is no such thing as pie in the world at all, no matter what the promise is, after all, it is still up to the people involved in it to earn it with their own hands, counting on others to selflessly dedicate themselves to you, and this kind of thing will not exist in hundreds of years.

Fittest.

Looking at the fiery registration scene, these four words suddenly appeared in Zhou Shixiang's mind, and he knew very well that most of these people might not live to the day when their dreams came true, because the reality was too cruel and the enemies they faced were too strong.

Zhou Shixiang knows very well that no matter how fanciful he says, today's meeting will never be able to get rid of the word "coercion". If he succeeds, it is good, in the future, the historian will always sing a hymn for his actions today, such as the people returning to their hearts, raising their arms and shouting, and the four sides responding; However, if he loses, the end will not be much better than Li Zicheng and Zhang Xianzhong, but I am afraid it will be better than the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, at least, he did not come up with a worship of God.

Now it depends on whether he can lead these "coerced" people to create one miracle after another, so that they can have a little more chance of survival

There were too many people who were instigated by Zhou Shixiang, and they surrounded the city gate cave with three layers inside and three layers outside, waiting left and right, but Zhao Sihai, who couldn't wait for Hu Boss and Song Xianggong, didn't dare to stop it, so he could only lead the young men who had been recruited before to maintain order, and called two small officials to register the people who signed up as a roster.

The two little officials who were brought in to do registration were also dumbfounded when they saw this meeting, they have more or less seen the world, how can they believe that there is really such a good thing in this world, they all say that these bandits are coaxing the people to die for them!

Lack of morality, you just pull the young and strong away, why bother to lead these old and weak women and children to their deaths!

Lost conscience!

Thieves, thieves, don't die well!

Scolding and scolding, the knife handle of the "thief" is next to it right now, and these two little officials dare not openly dissuade the people no matter how bold they are, so they can only honestly register the roster there. Every time a person's name is written, both of them sigh in their hearts: another fool sent to death!

"My name is Song Erniu, my family of six signed up, this is my mother, this is my mother-in-law, these two are my babies, and the younger one is my nephew."

"My name is Lin Qilong, my family of four signed up, this is my father, my mother, this is my son, nicknamed Lin Shishi."

"Where's your mother-in-law?"

"The year before last, he called the soldiers and took him captive."

"My lord, the little girl Qi Qin, my aunt and I are willing to sew and mend for the soldiers, and please write us down."

"Where's your man?"

"All Dead"

"Alas, two widows. Woman."

"Xiaowa, you were alone yesterday, what about your father?"

"My father's name is Tartar Lafuzi, and my mother ran away with someone."

The registration was busy until the afternoon, and the rest were either killed and refused to join the army, or there were relatives to run to, so there was no need to bet on whether the soldier was really kind.

These people accounted for about one-fifth of the total number of victims, more than 200 people. They gathered together, watching coldly, and from time to time there was a sarcastic smile on the corner of their mouths.

Zhou Shixiang saw their expressions in his eyes, and he sneered in his heart, but at the moment, he didn't plan to cut them, because he still needed to reorganize the people who had been recruited, and he didn't expect them to have combat effectiveness immediately, but at least he had to obey orders and know how to obey the words of his superiors.

Zhao Sihai held the roster to Zhou Shixiang with a bitter face, according to Zhou Shixiang's meaning, all men who have reached the age of 14 and have not yet reached the age of 45 are regarded as young and strong, except for those who are disabled, the rest will be organized and trained into an army. After screening, a total of 320 people met this condition, and the remaining more than 800 people were all elderly, weak, women and children.

Zhou Shixiang asked Zhao Sihai to lead people to reorganize 320 young men and 35 people who were willing to join the army, Zhao Sihai asked how to reorganize, Zhou Shixiang thought about it and asked him to reorganize it according to the method of 10 people in a team and a team of 50 people, so that the old brothers of Daqiao Mountain served as the captain and team leader respectively. After the people were reorganized, he gave them the uniforms and weapons of the army, and tried to reorganize the whole team before the sun set, and then he would be of great use.

Although Zhao Sihai was dissatisfied with Zhou Shixiang's recruitment of old and weak women and children, but he was willing to reorganize the young and strong, he had originally been a Ming army, although Zhou Shixiang's method of formation was a little different from that of the Ming army, but the general meaning was almost the same, and after the reorganization, he and the old brothers of Daqiao Mountain could lead the troops one by one, although the captain and the team were a long distance from the capital division and garrison they imagined, but it was always a good start. As long as there are soldiers, are you afraid that you will not be an official?

Of the remaining more than 800 old and weak women and children, Zhou Shixiang has no intention of dividing them into old camps and women's camps for the time being, but temporarily mixing them first, which is easy to dispel the suspicions of these people and makes it convenient for the young families to take care of the elderly. After all, with relatives by his side, this heart can always be a lot more stable.

There is a promise in advance, as long as you participate, you will have food and meat, and there is no rush for clothes. Grain is readily available, and the large households and the unaffected residents have been given the task of collecting grain, so as long as you put a pot, you can open the stove. The meat was a little troublesome, and in the end, it was the three big fat pigs that were "borrowed" from Zhang Chang's family to solve the urgent need.

In the evening, all 355 young men were reorganized, one by one put on the cleaned Ming army uniforms, holding knives and guns in their hands, looking really good, and in good spirits.

Boss Hu and Song Xianggong also rushed over from the Zhizhou Yamen when it was about to get dark, but to Zhao Sihai's surprise, Boss Hu actually appreciated Zhou Shixiang's practice of recruiting all the people to join the army, and Song Xianggong couldn't help but praise it, which made Zhao Sihai very confused.

Zhou Shixiang knew it in his heart, this must be Song Xianggong who told Hu Quan what he thought, which made Hu Quan support him so much.

In order to avoid the suspicion of overstepping his authority, Zhou Shixiang asked Boss Hu to appoint the team leader and the captain. Boss Hu was not polite after resigning, and immediately appointed Zhao Sihai, Ge Wu, Peng Dazhu, Ge Liu, and Bald Zi as the leaders of the fifth team, and the rest of the captains were all served by the old brothers.

Because there were still dozens of Qing army prisoners locked up in the yamen, Hu Laoda sent Peng Dazhu to lead a team of soldiers to the yamen to guard.

Ge Wu and the others just came over, and they didn't know what Zhou Shixiang said and did during the day, and after Zhao Sihai told the public treasury and the old and weak women and children, sure enough, he made a fuss again.
