In less than half an hour, there were already 112 people on the registration list. The left one has one hundred soldiers, but this one hundred does not count officers with ranks. The officers with rank in the left capital include one general head, one deputy general, one general Yu Hou, and two team leaders, two deputy team leaders, and two Yu Hou, adding up to ten people. In addition, Lin Wei was originally the coach of the Wendeng battalion, and Wang Zhong was the deputy general of the Wendeng battalion, both of whom were included in Dengzhou, so that there were a total of 112 people.

Among the 112 people, except for Lin Wei and Lin Wu brothers from Chang'an, Wang Chong from Qingzhou, and Zhang Hong from Haizhou, 108 people, including Li Jing himself, are all from various villages and villages in Qingning Township, Wendeng County, Dengzhou. These more than 100 people can be described as veritable soldiers.

For the first team he pulled up, Li Jing attaches great importance to it. When he asked Song Wen to pull out the left one to him, it was not just because the left one was his troops and had been trained by him for a month. One of the most important reasons is that the soldiers in Zuo Yidu are all from Qingning Township. At the beginning, several of the second team on the left were all locals of Penglai, but they were later driven out of Lu by Li Jing, and a few people from Qingning Township were replaced from others. The soldiers, the township party, this is undoubtedly a soldier who is easier to accept Li Jing's command and is more likely to be loyal to Li Jing. At this time, the same townspeople, like the same clan, are the best bonds that connect each other.

In the name of the list registered, Li Jing deliberately went to Song Wen. Song Wen also counted, and when he saw that Li Jing actually pulled away a lot of people from Zuo Yidu, he didn't look half distressed. He had already heard what kind of conditions Li Jing had set for those soldiers. There are settling-in allowances for those who go with them, and bereavement allowances for those who are injured or killed in battle in the future, as well as monthly salaries and food, and the conditions are very superior, and even the treatment is much better than that of the soldiers in the state. During the period just now, several groups of soldiers in the Unity Barracks had already reported to Lu Shang, asking to join Li Jing's Shamen Town. In this regard, Song Wen was really a little crying and laughing. Of course, he knew that the conditions set by Li Jing could not be given by the garrison. Therefore, in the end, the superior conditions he offered actually had to be paid by Li Jing himself.

However, he also knew that Li Jing was rich, and he won 10,000 horses of silk from Feng Liang last time. In addition, Li Jing is also a protégé of Cui Yunqing and Yu Qing, although Cui Yunqing left Dengzhou, but Jiedu Sima is in charge of the money and food of tens of thousands of troops in Ziqing Town. Perhaps, Li Jing had this idea.

Song Wen looked at the entire list, one officer, and only temporarily drafted Lin Wei as the deputy general, Wang Chong as the Marquis of Yu, Zhang Hong as the soldier Cao joined the army, and Lin Wu as the second general from the left. In addition, Li Jing himself is the head of the left one, Wang Zhong is the head of the left three generals, and Lin Wei is also the coach. Many other positions are still vacant.

"Don't you have a suitable candidate for officer? If you don't have a suitable one, I can transfer a group of them to you, whether they are officers of the state army, the county and town soldiers, the garrison soldiers, or the unity army. ”

Li Jing smiled and shook his head, officers are the most important part of an army. Although Li Jing does not have a suitable candidate for the time being, he would rather be vacant than give these positions to some people he does not know. Otherwise, will this army be his, or Song Wen's?

"Thank you, Marquis Duyu, but there are not many people on Salmon Island who want to go. I used the banner of the Marquis of Du Yu to pull them away, and if I didn't get it right, I would become enemies. I'll take my time and pick in the team. ”

"It's okay, since I chose you to go to Salmon Town, then I'll give you the power to do everything yourself. In addition, I heard that the conditions offered by you to recruit soldiers are very high, in fact, in the current situation, if you reduce the conditions by half, those who are willing to go will still be squeezed. You are still short of more than 100 people, and many soldiers in the battalion want to go to Salmon Island with you after hearing about your conditions, are you willing to ask for it? If you are willing to accept them, I will simply assign them all to you, which can be regarded as saving you the trouble of recruiting troops everywhere yourself. ”

Li Jing couldn't guess why Song Wen's sudden change was? Before, he refused to hand over the unity soldiers to Li Jing, but now he took the initiative to help him make up the people? Is it to mix sand? He also said earlier that he would arrange an officer for Li Jing, which is very likely.

Regardless of what he was, Li Jing didn't plan to collect any more united soldiers. Previously, they received that batch because they were soldiers who had trained themselves for more than a month, and because they were their own township party, and they were reliable in bringing these people. But it is not very cost-effective to collect other solidarity soldiers. Although these people are only solidarity soldiers, after all, they are soldiers trained by others, and loyalty and the like are inevitably unreliable. Or when he went back to Qingning Township, he recruited some more soldiers from the township party, which was more reliable.

"If Du Yuhou really wants to take care of his subordinates, his subordinates really have a place to ask Du Yuhou."

"If you have something, just say it, what are we polite?" Song Wen really doesn't regard Li Jing as a subordinate, and his attitude towards Li Jing is completely like that of his own nephews.

"My subordinates are going to Shamen Town, although I can recruit soldiers and horses, but there is no way to do it in terms of armament, so I want to ask Du Yuhou to help solve the equipment of my subordinates." Li Jing originally wanted to offer to buy one hundred and fifty sets of equipment, but at this time, seeing that Song Wen was particularly easy to talk today, he was heartbroken, and simply said: "My subordinates need three hundred sets of equipment, each of which includes a set of iron armor, a spear, a longbow, a horizontal knife, a Peng row, and thirty arrows. ”

Song Wen scolded with a smile: "Okay, you guy, you will climb up the pole." Shamen Shu was under the control of the shogunate, but Dengshu had no right to intervene and was not responsible for supply. If you want something, you should ask your teacher for it, how can you ask me? If you want ten sets of eight sets, I can give it to you, and as soon as you come, the lion opens his mouth and asks me for three hundred sets of equipment, you really think that this is an ordnance workshop. Even if it's a workshop, you have to pay for it. ”

Li Jing also heard some extraneous voices, and said with a smile: "Why don't I write an excerpt to the tutor and ask for the equipment I need." Then I'll borrow 300 sets of equipment from Duyu Hou first, and then fill in your side when the teacher pulls it out? ”

"How can hundreds of sets of equipment be as easy as you say, the key is not in accordance with the procedure."

Li Jing and Song Wen talked for a long time, although Song Wen had a good attitude, he refused to let go of this matter. After the last, Li Jing calculated, the 100 soldiers in the left capital were all equipped, and most of their equipment was received in the battalion, but they all handed over 20 yuan of equipment money for one person before coming. In fact, the price of a complete set of equipment on each of the Solidarity soldiers should be more than 20 yuan. Twenty runs, it can only be said to be a cost. Especially the equipment that Li Jing led at the beginning of the team was very sophisticated. There are a lot of all kinds of equipment added up, and twenty is really not much.

Even then, the equipment of a hundred people was paid 2,000 yuan. If he paid Song Wen to buy it, three hundred sets would cost a full six thousand yuan, and although he had previously distributed ten thousand pieces of silk, it would only cost eight thousand yuan. Last time, he also gave a hundred silks to the family of the person who assassinated Feng Yanqing, and went to more than 2,000 yuan, and last time he bought a batch of crossbows, and went to nearly 1,000 yuan, and he only had 5,000 yuan left in his hand.

Besides, he had just paid another 2,400 yuan for settling-in expenses, and he only had 2,600 yuan left in his hand.

There is not much money, but you still have to ask for equipment, and what is the use of having people without equipment. After thinking about it for a long time, Li Jing smiled and proposed to Song Wen: "There must be a lot of equipment in the warehouse that was damaged during training, and it is troublesome to repair these equipment, so it is better to sell them to your subordinates cheaper." You should think that I am pitiful to those who are going to Salmon Island, and sell us some points, and you can't let us go to Salmon Island empty-handed, right? ”

After the end, he didn't know which sentence moved Song Wen, and he finally nodded and took out some of the 'damaged' old equipment and sold it to Li Jing.

There were 300 sets of brand-new equipment, all of which were the same as the ones Li Jing received when he first entered the camp. Not only iron armor, spears, horizontal swords, bows and arrows, but also a lot. And even Li Jing didn't let go of the dozens of other equipment with a wide variety of names, and he wanted them all. In addition, Li Jing also specially requested that 50,000 "damaged" feather arrows be added. When Li Jing had all the equipment, Song Wen personally took the account from Cang Cao and marked all the equipment that Li Jing had received as damaged. A large number of ordnance worth more than 10,000 guan was bought by Li Jing at the price of 1,000 guan and the 'garbage' marked as damaged in the accounts.

When he came out of the warehouse, Song Wen said to Li Jing with a solemn face: "This is the last help I can give you, from now on, in Shamen Island, everything will depend on you." ”

Li Jing originally wanted to open his mouth to buy some more 'disabled war horses, horses' or something, but when he heard this, he was stunned in his heart, and he also understood that this time it was estimated that it was completely on Cui Yunqing's face just now. Although there is a little regret in my heart, the harvest is also huge. Before he came, Li Jing never thought that he could buy so much equipment with a thousand yuan.

He thought that it would be good to be able to cry for a hundred spears or something here in Song Wen, but he didn't expect to be able to get a full set of three hundred sets of equipment. Not to mention, he also asked for an extra 50,000 feather arrows, with this batch of arrows, Li Jing could use it for a long time even if he could not replenish it for a period of time in the future. There is no chance to take advantage of such a advantage in the future, it seems that as soon as you get to Shamen Town, you have to start looking for some craftsmen, and self-reliance is the best policy.
