  Chapter 1617 Successful recruitment

  The final selection of recruits went very smoothly. In the ancient times of feudal society, no common people dared to challenge and disturb the official recruitment.

   Coupled with the full cooperation of the magistrate of Yiwu, Zhu Ping'an successfully selected 1,200 recruits in the second half of the afternoon on the third day.

  All of them are dark-skinned, honest, strong-skinned, hard-working, young and strong country men.

   "Why does it feel like everyone is black and simple?" Liu Dadao rubbed his head and said to himself.

   "Da Dao, what are you mumbling about?" Zhu Ping'an asked.

   "No, it's nothing, hehe." Liu Dadao couldn't help shrinking his head, hehe smiled, and prevaricated.

As soon as the   person was selected, Zhu Pingan ordered people to move baskets of silver to the recruiting site, moving six baskets totaling 6,000 taels of silver. Under the sunlight, it emitted a dazzling silver light, like six mountains of silver, raising the atmosphere of the entire recruiting scene to its highest point.

"All the new soldiers of the Zhejiang Army, congratulations on joining the Zhejiang Army and becoming the brothers of this official and all the soldiers of the Zhejiang Army! Now, all the new soldiers of the Zhejiang Army go to the scribes to register and record in detail their names, ages, and places of origin. , address, and appearance characteristics, after the registration is completed, you will receive a settling allowance of five taels of silver. The silver is not much, but I hope that you brothers will not dislike it.”

  Zhu Ping'an stood on a table in the center of the recruiting field and shouted loudly to the 1,200 recruits from Yiwu who were successfully selected.

   "What is the settlement fee? I've never heard of it since ancient times. Hehe, I'm really happy to be given five taels of silver just after being selected."

   "Soldiers are often in arrears these days, and your lord even pays an extra settling allowance. It's really kind."

   "Did you hear that, your lord is calling us brothers. Your lord is a fourth-rank official, you are calling us brothers."

   "Thank you for your compassion, thank you, my lord, you regard me as a brother, and I will die for you."

  The soldiers of the new Jin and Zhejiang Army thanked Zhu Ping'an happily and moved, and vowed to die for Zhu Ping'an.

  Those who lost the election, as well as the onlookers, all looked enviously at the newly promoted soldiers of the Zhejiang Army in the venue, and secretly swore: next time I must sign up, and next time I must be selected.

The reason why Zhu Ping’an immediately registered the new soldiers of the Zhejiang Army for military registration was to determine the candidates. After the registration and registration, they were recruits of the Zhejiang Army. The second is to control the Zhejiang army. Military registration is the basis for managing the army. For example, "Qi Shaobao Memorial", "Record the registration of all soldiers, and all stubborn and treacherous people, who escaped and hid, all have their wives and children to control their lives, so Can get its death power."

After all the newly promoted soldiers of the Zhejiang Army had registered and collected their resettlement allowances, Zhu Pingan stood on the table again and said loudly: "Brothers, from now on, you are not farmers or miners, but members of our Zhejiang Army." New recruits. Today, the Japanese plague is getting worse. The Japanese pirates are burning, killing, looting and doing all kinds of crimes. Countless fathers, villagers, brothers and sisters are trembling under the butcher knife of the Japanese pirates. Everyone is responsible for the rise and fall of the world. As soldiers in Zhejiang, we shoulder the first task The most important task is to wipe out Japanese pirates and defend the country! I assure you that from today onwards, regardless of whether it is windy or raining, whether it is fighting or camping, soldiers will be paid on time every month. In arrears! But you have to remember that these military salaries are the blood and sweat collected by the imperial court from the common people. After you receive this salary, you have to assume the responsibility of defending your home and country! You have to practice hard and go to battle to kill the enemy! If you can't take this responsibility, wouldn't it be a waste of the people's blood and sweat! If you can't take this responsibility, then what's the use of supporting you?!"

   "My lord's lesson is that you have to work after eating. We understand this truth. We must take on the responsibility of defending our home and country and going to battle to kill the enemy." A group of new Zhejiang soldiers expressed their opinions.

   "Very well, I trust you." Zhu Pingan nodded vigorously.

   "Thank you for your trust, sir. We will live up to your trust." A group of newly promoted Zhejiang soldiers were very moved.

"Defending the country, defending the country, and fighting the enemy are both responsibilities and opportunities. As the saying goes, fortune and misfortune depend on each other. Today's Japanese plague is becoming more and more serious. It is not only a crisis, but it is also an opportunity for you. As long as you fight bravely to kill Japanese, you will be rewarded with silver and promoted. You can get it at your fingertips. A soldier who doesn’t want to be a general is not a good soldier. Work hard, as long as you fight bravely, everyone of you can become a general, everyone can confer your wife and son, and honor your ancestors!”

  Zhu Ping'an encouraged everyone loudly.

   "Soldiers who don't want to be generals are not good soldiers. Your words are really good. I think of the general"

   "In the past, when we fought for mines and weapons, we could only bleed for nothing and sacrifice for nothing. How could it be compared to the glory of going to battle to kill Japanese and defend our home and country. Killing a Japanese pirate will reward you with thirty taels of silver, and you can even be promoted to a general."

  After hearing this, all the soldiers of the Jin-Zhe Army couldn’t help but their blood boiled with excitement, all of them gearing up excitedly, wishing to go to the battlefield to kill a bunch of Japanese pirates, get a lot of money, and put on the general’s uniform

   "A soldier who doesn't want to be a general is not a good soldier. I want to be a soldier."

  The onlookers also felt excited when they heard this.

"Okay, that's the end of today's recruitment. All the new Zhejun brothers go back and settle down at home. Cherish and enjoy the time to reunite with your family. Come here tomorrow morning to gather and follow me back to the Zhejun Camp - Taohuaji Campus .” Zhu Pingan clapped his hands and said to a group of soldiers of the new Zhejiang army.

"Of order, thank you sir, I'll gather early tomorrow morning." A group of soldiers of the Zhejiang Army took the order loudly, carrying five taels of silver for their settlement, and under the envious eyes of the crowd of onlookers, held their heads high, Go home happily.

   "Congratulations, my lord, for recruiting 1,200 elites." Zhao Zhixian congratulated Zhu Ping'an with his hands clasped.

"Hehe, I would like to thank the county magistrate Zhao for his assistance. I was able to recruit 1,200 recruits in such a short period of time." Zhu Pingan bowed his hands and smiled back, and then said, "When I go back to report on the recruitment, I will definitely Zhaozhi County’s great assistance is included in it.”

  This time, it was really thanks to the assistance of Zhao County Magistrate. Whether it was to remind and suggest to do the work of Chen Dacheng to break the situation, or to send a large number of scribes and servants to assist in the recruitment and improve the efficiency of the recruitment, it gave me great help.

   "It's all a matter of little effort, I'm really ashamed to be an official." Zhao Zhixian said modestly again and again, but he didn't refuse.

  In these years, who still thinks that there are few political achievements. He vigorously assisted Zhu Ping'an, perhaps without this reason.

  With more achievements, the report card during the tenure will be much better, which will be of great benefit to future promotion. He didn't want to be a magistrate for the rest of his life.
