Dong Ce looked at everyone and said in a deep voice: "From today on, you are no longer the soldiers of the various military forts, you have been dismissed by this officer, and you will no longer be soldiers in the future, so naturally you don't have to stay in the army anymore." ”

"After you are dismissed, each of you, the official will give you ten taels of silver as the silver for settling in. And if you leave the army, you have nothing to do and no land to plant, you can come to the Rock Fort of your own officials. There are fertile fields around Rock Fort......"

Speaking of this, Dong Ce turned around and pointed at him, and said in a loud voice: "Did you see it?!" This is Rock Castle! ”

He pointed to the large farmland on the north bank of the river and said, "My rock fort has fertile land, ditches and abundant water, and after you come, if you can divide some land to feed yourself and your family, it will be no problem." ”

Although when Li Gui reported to him before, he said that the land around Panshi Fort was almost full for 30,000 people, but he was referring to the land around Panshi Fort, and the land within three miles on the west bank of the Gan River, the land within two miles of the north bank of the Huanshui River, and the large area of land on the west side of Qingfeng Mountain have not yet been cultivated. If these lands are reclaimed, they will at least be tens of thousands of acres of good fertile land, enough to accommodate thousands of households. And even if all this land is reclaimed, there is still a considerable amount of wasteland to be reclaimed on the south bank of the Hunshui River, on the east bank of the Gan River, and even further afield.

Although the land in some places is not as fertile as the area around the Rock Fort, as long as the ditches can be built there, and the water from the Huanshui River and the Gan River can be diverted there, and the irrigation can keep up, then the yield will not be bad.

As soon as Dong Ce's words came out, it was really earth-shattering, and these people were stupid when they heard it.

Among them, none of them thought that Dong Ce gathered them all here to dismiss them! After a brief moment of shock, there was a loud wave of noise in the crowd, and everyone was talking, some of them were talking about something, and some of them were shouting even louder, but they didn't even know what they were shouting.

Dong Ce winked, and dozens of family members broke into the team, repeating loudly what Dong Ce had just said as they walked.

Soon, these people's emotions regained their calmness, and they began to seriously think about what Dong Ce had just said. Not to mention, when they think about it carefully, they find that it seems that it is a very good thing to be laid off.

If they are simply dismissed, they must be very reluctant in their hearts, after all, although it is not a taste in front of this soldier, the food and salary are deducted, and there is not much in their hands, and they can't even support themselves and their families, but this is a way out after all, and an income that can make them barely survive in the world.

It's better to survive than to starve.

But now, Dong Ce has given them very generous conditions, to what extent are these conditions generous?

Let's talk about the money first.

These soldiers, if they had not been dismissed, should have been able to get at least one or two pieces of silver a month according to the standard, but in fact, three pieces of silver a month would have been considered very good. And Dong Ce gave them ten taels of silver, which was basically equivalent to their military salary for three years, and it was a one-time payment.

Not to mention, there is still a division of land or something, they don't hear much about this. But it sounds like it's pretty good.

The soldiers looked at each other, and suddenly they all felt that it seemed to be a very good choice to be able to get ten taels of silver at a time, and then withdraw them.

It's just that, for the sake of prudence, they didn't answer immediately, but chose to be silent, waiting for others to speak first.

"What? Not satisfied? ”

Alatan Ulla, who was beside Dong Ce, suddenly shouted loudly. He was tall and strong, and his voice was loud, like a bell, buzzing in people's ears. Prior to this, he had heard many people talk about the bad treatment of the border army of the Ming Dynasty at this time, those recruits were better, these soldiers from military households, one by one, lived extremely miserable, and it is not an exaggeration to say that life is better than death. In his opinion, the conditions given by his own adults are already extremely generous, and these people still choose to remain silent, and they are really not satisfied.

"Eh, Alatan Ula, don't say that yet."

Dong Ce stretched out his hand to stop him.

After saying this to Alatanula, he turned to the soldiers and said in a deep voice: "What the officer is telling you now is not a request, but an order, and you must be aware of this!" Whether you want to be dismissed or not, you will all be dismissed, because this official is a general of the Beidong Road, and you are a soldier under this officer, and at the same time you are too weak! Going to the battlefield with your body and bones is also a part of death, and this official can't watch you die! To put it mildly, I can't just watch the entire battle collapse because of your death. ”

"Remove you, both for you and for the whole Beidong Road! And the conditions given to you by this official are generous enough! Think about it, how long will a full ten taels of silver be enough for you and your family? ”

"Also, you basically don't have your own land now, and most of them are tenants for Shangguan, which you yourself know very well, and your own officials also know very well. But if you choose to come to Fort Rock, then you can have your own piece of land! ”

As these words came out, there was a small commotion below.

Suddenly, a person in the crowd shouted: "Master Dong, what you said is true, if we are dismissed, if we really have silver hair, can we still come to the Rock Fort to divide the land?" ”

Dong Ce said in a deep voice: "Of course it's true! In front of thousands of people, it is absolutely impossible for this official to do something to deceive you! ”

The man seemed to be relieved when he heard this, and then asked, "Lord Dong, if I wait to come to the Rock Castle, how much land can I divide?" ”

Dong Ce smiled slightly: "I answered this question, you may not believe it." So I won't say it, but I'll find someone to tell you. ”

He casually ordered someone in the military formation and said, "You go out and talk to them." ”

The soldier was stunned for a moment, and then quickly straightened up, and shouted loudly. Then he walked out of the military formation, walked in front of those people, and raised his voice: "If you have anything you want to ask, just ask me." Whoever knows, I'm sure I will say. ”

This soldier was really not arranged by Dong Ce before, it was really a person he randomly ordered.

This man was also a homeless man, and later came to the Rock Fort, divided the land, built a house, and married a daughter-in-law.

The soldiers who were about to be dismissed immediately surrounded him and asked him all kinds of questions. This person is also a person who can hold up the scene, clapped his hands heavily, and said, "You are asking so nonsense, and I don't have seven or eight mouths, how can I answer you?" Don't worry, come one by one, one by one. ”
