Before Ma Yongzhen and the others arrived, Qin Mu personally wrote a notice:

The first is to inform the people of the fact that he, the magistrate of the county, has taken up his post.

The second is to recruit county officials, the requirements are not high, where the net worth is innocent, literacy can be, and those with experience in serving as officials are preferred.

The third is to announce that the county's land registration files have been destroyed in the war, and those who have land in their families must go to the county government office to re-register with the land deed within seven days, and the land and property that does not come to register within seven days will be regarded as terra nullius and distributed to the victims.

The notice was not only posted in the county seat, but after Qin Mu asked Liu Meng to find someone to copy it, he quickly sent it to the villages and towns to post it, so that the people of the county could learn about it as soon as possible.

Ma Yongzhen, Hong Dazhuang, Huo Sheng, Ning Yuan and others quickly rushed to the county office, Qin Mu glanced at everyone and said: "Due to the initial peace of the war in Huichang and the place has not been appeased, the number of people in Huichang Thousand Households will be set at 2,000 first. Huo Sheng's men and horses were selected and incorporated into thousands of households. ”

Hong Dazhuang immediately said: "My lord, there are so many supernumerions, not to mention whether the court will investigate it, I am afraid that there will definitely be no money and food." ”

"If you don't overstaff, the court may not have money and food for you, but you don't need to worry, as long as you do what the official orders, no matter how many people are overnumbered, the money and food in the army will be distributed in full and regularly by the officer. After you return to the camp, first of all, re-measure the original military land and send it to the military households in full, so as to calm the morale of the army. ”

Ma Yongzhen replied in a deep voice: "Don't worry, my lord, this matter has already been handled." ”

"Good. Later, the official will personally deposit the silver into the camp and pay the soldiers. After the salary, you immediately select some literate and hyphenated people from the army, led by them, a group of five or a group of ten people, depending on the situation, scattered to the villages and towns to form a household, where the nearest ten households are one first, fifty households are one guarantee, let the people themselves elect a positive and a chief;

After the formation of the security armor, the security chief and the armor are responsible for daily patrols and arrest of thieves and maintain law and order.

I have posted a notice that those who have land in their families must take the land deed to the county government within seven days to register and re-register, but if they are far away from the county government, they will receive the news later, and I am afraid that it will be too late, so the people and horses you sent will be responsible for registering and making the register on the spot.

In addition, there is another important task, that is, your men and horses and Bao Changjia Zheng, together with the chief of the guard, to distribute the ownerless fields to the landless people, and the upper limit of the land allocated by each family is 50 acres, and if there is any surplus, it will be used as official land.

After the fields are divided, we must let the households help each other, plough the wasteland as soon as possible, and resume production, I want to plant all the fields in this county before the end of June, especially sweet potatoes, even if they are cracks in stones, all that can be planted for the official to be planted, and the Ganzhou government will soon allocate seeds, and then you will also send people and horses to be responsible for distribution.

Here, the official would like to make it clear that you should not engage in irregularities for personal gain, use your power to harm the people, and enrich your own pockets, if anyone has the courage to do this, then the official will not wait until after the autumn, and will immediately let them understand what it means to have a rolling head! If you're not afraid of death, just try. ”

When Qin Mu said this, he paused, his eyes swept over everyone, murderous, Huo Sheng and Ning Yuan quietly exchanged glances, and then silently turned his head to the side, it was obvious that Qin Mu was walking in the direction they expected step by step, not to mention An Min, just saying that he wanted to raise the army by himself was enough to explain something.

Needless to say, Ma Yongzhen had already reached a series of agreements with Qin Mu privately when he accepted the appeasement, and it was precisely because of this that Qin Mu, a county magistrate, would unceremoniously give orders to Ma Yongzhen, a thousand households, and he must prohibit it.

"Liu Meng!"

"The subordinates are here."

"Your 100 men and horses are responsible for inspecting the whole county, and those who find fraud and harm the people will be reported immediately, if everyone has stolen goods, the evidence is conclusive, and the stolen money reaches ten taels, you can be killed on the spot!"

"Subordinates obey!"

"Everyone has heard it, don't forget to warn the people you sent, as the so-called troubled times use heavy codes, no matter who did it, this official will never be soft."

"The last general must obey the orders of your lordship."

"Do you guys have anything to say?"

Ma Yongzhen thought for a while and said: "My lord, the most important thing now is to solve the food problem, as far as the current situation is concerned, whether it is the army or the people, the rations are difficult to support until the autumn harvest, if this matter is not resolved, not only will some people in the people make trouble, I am afraid that it will be difficult to ensure stability in the army." ”

"Well, this matter has to be planned as soon as possible, Huichang is located at the junction of the four provinces, this official will find merchants to go to Guangdong and Fujian to buy grain as soon as possible, and then you will send someone to escort it to ensure safety, do you have any questions?"

"Not yet." Huo Sheng answered on behalf of everyone, he quietly glanced at Ma Yongzhen, according to Qin Mu's meaning, he will be the deputy Qianhu, and he will be subordinate to Ma Yongzhen, and he will inevitably hold his breath in his heart.

Qin Mu also knew that if he was left to his own devices, the two teams would trigger a fierce confrontation as soon as possible, and confrontation was not necessarily a bad thing, Qin Mu was confident that he could slowly lead them into a state of healthy competition.

After the meeting, Qin Mu immediately took a cart of silver and rushed to the Qianhu Office in the south of the city, which he asked Huo Sheng Xinfeng to escort, and now it can come in handy.

In such a troubled era, only by firmly grasping a military liliang is the foundation of the foothold.

And Qin Mu can only rely on this army if he wants to carry out his work at present, so it is particularly important to appease the army first, only in this way can he drive this liliang to his own use.

In the barracks, two thousand men and horses stood solemnly, waiting for Qin Mu's arrival.

In the sound of thunderous horses' hooves, Qin Mu led a hundred black-clothed and black-armored cavalry to roll in like a wind, kicking off the yellow dust and rolling with amazing momentum;

His 100 horses were selected by thousands of people, not only all of them rode on war horses, but they were all big and round-waisted, fierce and brave, especially the mace of Liu Meng's envoy was dozens of catties, not to mention that the timid people could resist it, and they could be scared to lie down.

Qin Mu knows very well that in addition to grace in the army, there must be prestige, otherwise it is difficult for you to make the soldiers feel awe in their hearts, so this is the first time to enter the camp, this majesty must be full,

He dismounted in front of the army, pressed the handle of the knife and walked up to the general platform surrounded by Ma Yongzhen, Huo Sheng and other generals, looked at the black soldiers under the stage, and shouted loudly: "Soldiers, no matter who you were in the past and what kind of past you have, it doesn't matter, now, you only have one identity, that is, soldiers!"

It is your honor and responsibility for soldiers to obey orders and to defend their homes and the country. In order to be able to assume the responsibilities that belong to you, you must train hard, abide by the military regulations, orders and prohibitions, and the specific military regulations have your own hundreds and thousands of households to inform you, this official will not talk nonsense here, this official only emphasizes one point, and only emphasizes once, cherish your lives, and abide by your military regulations! No matter who it is, the offender will be beheaded! ”

Intimidate!

Intimidate!

Intimidate!

One hundred cavalry Huo Ran drew his sword, roared in unison, and the murderous aura soared straight into the sky, sweeping his face and causing pain, and the two thousand soldiers in the field were all awe-inspiring in their hearts.

Qin Mu shouted loudly again: "As long as you abide by the military rules, obey the orders, and train hard, this official assures you that your fields and food will be distributed in full as scheduled, and there will be no less." Now, starting from the first row on the left, you will come to the front of the stage in a row, and the official will personally hand out your salaries, two taels of silver per month. ”

Hearing this, the 2,000 soldiers in the audience immediately buzzed and discussed, all along, the military salary of the Ming Dynasty is not high, like Qi Jiguang recruited troops on the southeast coast, stipulating that the annual salary per person is 10 taels, and after arriving in Jizhen in the north, the annual salary of the recruits guarding the border wall is only 18 taels, which is the salary of recruiting soldiers in strategic places of the country;

In the interior, the price of conscription is extremely low, and in most areas, "the recruits receive one cent of silver per day," and their annual salary is less than four taels of silver.

Since the Chongzhen period, wars have been frequent, a large number of people have been displaced, food and clothing have been left behind, and it has become easier to recruit soldiers, not to mention salary, as long as you can provide a bite to eat, there are a lot of people who are willing to follow you to work hard;

Even if the imperial court maintained a combat force of 10,000 people, the normal annual consumption would be 80,000 taels of silver and about 40,000 stone of grain.

And now, Qin Mu's food salary is 24 taels per person per year, which is absolutely unprecedented in the Ming Dynasty, and I have never heard of it.

Will Qin Mu really pay so much money?

Even if they had seen the cart in front of the general's platform piled up with white flowers, before they received it, every soldier still had no bottom in his heart, and the kind of excitement and apprehension, the heart of gain and loss was clearly written on their faces.

Every soldier didn't want anything to go wrong at this time, so they walked to the front of the stage in a neat formation one by one, and after receiving their own salary, they couldn't help but be excited;

After receiving the salary, there was one more thing they needed to do, that is, to give a military salute to Qin Muxing, who was standing on the stage, and say, "Thank you for Lord Qin's salary!" ”

Qin Mu wanted every soldier to keep in mind who was raising them. It is undeniable that this has the meaning of buying people's hearts and engaging in a personality cult, now is an extraordinary period, this army will be Qin Mu's current dependence, if it can be developed, it will also be his descendant in the future.

No matter what means were used, Qin Mu had to ensure their absolute loyalty.

Even if he wants to poke a big hole in God, he wants them to follow closely behind him without hesitation.
