Lin Daxiao didn't say anything. The martial arts were also humans, and they had ideas when they were humans. Before, they were ordinary farmers, workers, and friends. The expectation for the future was to be able to have enough food, warm clothes and robes in winter, and it would be more perfect if they could marry and have children. Now they have embarked on another road, with generous salary and money every month, tailored, warm and thick military robes to wear. What's more important is that they began to read and read. For example, Lin and the other two had the opportunity to go to the capital four thousand miles away, pass through Jiangling and other places, gained knowledge and opened their eyes, saying that the hopes before seemed too small.

I have read more and listened more and thought more.

In times of trouble, Xu Zixian had a lofty ambitions. Everyone could see that. Who could say that everyone could not follow Nan'an Hou and fight to create a bigger world?

Thirty years ago, the remnant power of the Japanese pirates was still there. When the pirates first started, the King of Qi led his troops to slaughter the Japanese pirates, wiped out the pirates, and returned the world to clear the way of Fujian.

Now the King of Qi has a hereditary title, and its wealth and glory are beyond words. The subordinates who followed the King of Qi back then were mostly military officers in the middle and lower class of the court. From command of one village to command of the camp, military commander, deputy commander, Yu Hou, or deputy defensive envoys in some places, although most of them are the wing army system, they guard various military prefectures and villages, of course, have a great income and a low status. As Lin brothers, they are of course not afraid to think about these things. Now they dare to imagine more and hope to get more.

"Look, the recruitment of new martial soldiers has begun."

Lin Dalin Er stood up together and looked out of the tavern.

The crowd of people from the brigade rushed over from all directions, including middle-aged men among the refugees living in the east end of the town, and men who came from far away from Jianzhou. The standard requirement for the Wushu was that he was over 18 and no more than 35 years old, so most of the people who came over were strong men in their twenties to around thirty years old.

The standard for height was five feet and three inches last time, which means that the height was more than 1.65 meters. According to the standards of the Great Wei Imperial Army, it was actually relaxed.

Wei Juncai and brave, that is, the imperial guards, have a standard height of five feet and five inches, which is more than one meter and seventy-two. Most of the imperial guards are recruited in the north or Jianghuai. It is not too difficult to be 1 meter and seventy-two. If you don’t even have this height, it means that you got too little nutrition when you were young and teenagers and you are mostly not strong enough.

There must be strong men among short people, but in terms of probability, the chances are not as high as those of tall people.

During the reign of Emperor Wuzong, the Japanese were in chaos in the south, and northern barbarians invaded one after another invasion in the north. Emperor Wuzong led many large-scale wars in the north, and the standards for recruiting imperial guards were slightly relaxed, but the minimum standard was still five feet and three inches. Later, during the reign of Emperor Wenzong, the scale of the war decreased, and the standards for imperial guards were restored to five feet and five inches.

Those who are less than five feet and three inches can also join the army, but can only serve as the wing army and supplementary soldiers. During the founding period of Taizu, those who are just less than five feet and three inches of the camp did not pay military salaries, but only sent military robes, weapons and responsible for food. This is already considered a good rule and gives poor people who are poor and have no food and clothing a chance to have enough food. They do not expect these short and thin men to act as the main force of the battle formation.

During the reign of Renzong and Xuanzong, the country was strong, with sufficient financial resources, sufficient salary for the imperial guards, and generous treatment. Not only was the standard of talent brave enough to be above five feet and five inches, but the standard of shooting men was also mentioned as amazing as more than six feet.

In other words, every Dawei crossbowman holding the divine arm bow must be above 1.8 meters tall.

This is a very amazing record. When Xu Zixian read the history of the National Dynasty, he could not believe it at all. Millions of imperial guards, at least tens of thousands of crossbowmen, were all tall and strong men of 1.8 meters. Even in later generations, under the premise of adequate nutrition, the average height of the army was only 1.7 meters. There were some poor countries and small countries. The soldiers in the army were scary in height, and there were many soldiers of 1.5 meters and 5 meters. The Wei army was at the forefront of the times.

Later, Xu Zixian learned that crossbowmen not only require amazing waist and arm strength for the divine arm crossbow, but also requires a long and strong body. Therefore, the standards for crossbowmen to improve the standards of crossbowmen are based on national strength, and secondly, there are indeed needs.

As for national strength, it is indeed not too difficult to select strong men with tens of millions of men from the north to the south of the Yangtze River.

In this era, it was not a conscript. When he was discharged from the army in three or two years, he would probably be a lifetime system. He would not change a group of 1.8 meters tall men with more than 100,000 people every few years. Even with the population base of Wei, he could not afford it.

Fujian Road is even more special here. The average height of Fujian people is the same as that of Guangdong and Guangxi, and Guizhou people are also shorter in the Wei Dynasty for more than 20 roads. The tall ones are Hebei Road, Shandong Road, Qinfeng Road, Yongxingjun Road, second ones are Henan Road, Huaidong, Huaixi, second ones are Jiangnan, Liangzhe, Jinghu, most of them are Fujian, Guangnan East Road, and Guangnan West Road.

Since there are not many tall and strong men, the last time the recruitment was five feet and three inches, and it was enough to be higher than one meter and sixty-five. If it was lower than this value, it was really impossible to recruit.

In the era of cold weapons, a group of tall men holding long wands and a group of short men holding long wands, the power difference is too far.

This time it was completely different.

The standard line set is five feet and five inches, and the height must be more than 1.7 meters. It is also considered tall in Fujian, but among the walking crowd, there are many people over 1.75 meters and there are also quite a few strong men over 1.8 meters and walking among the crowd, which is quite eye-catching.

The most eye-catching one is an extremely tall and strong man, obviously one head taller than an ordinary person, as if nearly two meters tall, his muscles on his body are as strong as a bear. When he walks on the road, he stares with big eyes and the onlookers runs away quickly.

"This time the martial arts soldiers are really good..." Lin Da was only over 1.7 meters tall and was not short, but he still felt a lot of pressure in front of these new martial arts soldiers.

"Tall people do not necessarily have perseverance." Lin Er smiled and said, "This is what the adults said. When training, most of the people who can endure hardships are short people. When fighting, the ones who are really capable are middle-sized soldiers. They are physically incompetent, and they are not resilient during training and cannot endure too much hardship. When fighting, they are really the target of archery..."

Although the words were sour, they were very similar to the facts. This was indeed the case. A strong man like a big bear was probably the most conspicuous in the battle formation. The archer did not greet him but went to greet him?

"But the big man is tall and strong, he still takes advantage of it after all."

"This is natural, but after all, I have to pass the training level of recruits."

"There will be a level of literacy in the future."

The literacy class has been put on the agenda. In the past, only military officers participated. Now, as long as the military soldiers who are interested in progress can register, all military soldiers will have to participate in the literacy class in the future.

Listen to historical books, talk about loyalty and righteousness, understand the general trend, understand the truth, things are not the truth, loyalty and righteousness, and the Chinese and foreigners. These things did not fall from the sky.

In addition to loyalty and righteousness, we also need to read history books and military books. Every soldier may not be able to be a general, but those who can read and read and read will have a significant improvement in their ability to receive information, which is also the foundation of a strong army.

For ordinary martial arts soldiers, it is easy to listen to stories, but it is difficult to read.

Fortunately, it is divided into several literacy classes, intermediate and advanced literacy classes. Even if you can literate ordinary martial arts soldiers, you can read newspapers, you will be considered successful.

Even so, Lin Da and others regarded it as a hard work. Fortunately, they had already made some foundation, and when they mentioned this, they could not help but feel gloating.

A large number of strong men began to line up in front of the camp gate. Xu Zi came back first, and ignored other matters, and carried out the major event of recruiting martial arts soldiers first. This fully demonstrated that the importance of the regiment training was as important as before, not as many people judged. Since there were positions of Qizhou Defense Envoy and Shangzhai Commander, Qizhou might be the main one.

The performance of Nan'an Hou made Nan'an Group feel at ease and his morale was invisibly much higher.

Many old Wu soldiers, including the Lin brothers, rushed to the camp to watch the fun.

Only then did people realize that there were many new people recruited this time. The public statement from the public is that there were many applicants, and it was not good to let everyone down. More than 3,000 people were left, and some of them were eliminated with strict training. Only those who could pass the training level of the new martial arts soldiers were considered serious martial arts soldiers. No matter how many people left before, they could only be considered trial training, without pay or the treatment of formal martial arts soldiers.

"Another cavalry of one city, the water camps of two battalions are only 1,1200 people, and more than 3,000 people are left..."

Luo Fangbo was also hiding among the crowd. He posted a post as Lan Fangren to ask for a meeting. Xu Zixian was full of important things, so of course he would not meet an outside businessman for the time being. Luo Fangbo was not in a hurry. He came from the ocean and did not care about delaying these few days.

This time the recruitment is also a novel perspective for Luo Fangbo. The country of Lanfang has been established for more than a hundred years, and both military and political fields are corrupt. The army has tens of thousands of people, most of which are ordinary sea sailors, and the recruitment is quite casual. There are a large number of aristocratic families in the country, and many of them are like private soldiers. Even the king of the country cannot mobilize and use it at will.

Luo Fangbo still has a vision. He had seen the old Wushu trained in the Nan'an regiment before, and knew that he was a rare elite, which made him more interested in cooperating with Xu Zixian. When he looked at the recruitment of new soldiers, the entire process made Luo Fangbo feel moved, surprised, and then admired.

In orderly, he saw the details, thousands of people rushed over, and the dispatched people were not at all confused. Luo Fangbo knew that not only his Lan Fang Kingdom could not be done, but also the Three Buddhas and the Three Thizujia could not be done.

Mantaojia and Tianfang mercenaries were tall and strong, all with blue eyes, each with eyes higher than the top. They used scimitars made of fine steel, with extraordinary courage and fearlessness. Whether it was the Three Buddhas or Lan Fang and other countries, they were beaten to pieces by the Tianfang mercenaries of Mantaojia.

At the beginning, I thought that the people of Tianfang were too strong, but now it seems that Luo Fangbo is still too weak.

But then I thought about it and it seemed that the Great Wei imperial guards did not have the same scene as those trained by the Nan'an League. Xu Zixian is different from ordinary people.
