Novel website...org, the fastest update to the latest chapter of becoming a boss in the Northern Song Dynasty!

The military camps in Quanzhou are as dilapidated as beggars' nests, and the schoolyards are covered with weeds.

Gan Qi looked at the military camp and shook his head. The military equipment was in vain beyond Gan Qi's imagination.

A small cowhide drum was beaten and dust scattered. I don’t know how long it took for this drum to be played. It would be a miracle to be played.

Dozens of iron armor stood by the school grounds, and Shi Honglei stood on the platform, waiting for the Quanzhou Banying Army that was coming in a sparse manner.

The military system of the Song Dynasty was the lowest level of the village army. For example, the army training envoys were the ones who trained the village army, that is, the militia. However, they were already something that was in name only, and the army training envoys were also an official who died in name only.

Then there is the Xiang Army, which is the regular army. The most direct source of the Xiang Army is the refugees and refugees. They are afraid that the refugees will not survive and become bandits or rise up. Therefore, as long as there are natural disasters and man-made disasters in the Song Dynasty, they will immediately raise the recruiting flags, which is equivalent to using the money from the court to support the displaced people and maintain internal stability.

Next is the Imperial Guard. The Imperial Guard means to take the Imperial Guard, but it is not the Imperial Guard. The Imperial Guard will also be divided into various prefectures, which is equivalent to elite troops. The origin of the Imperial Guard soldiers comes from the inheritance of the military general family, and a larger part is to select from the wing army, select the elite soldiers of the wing army to be regarded as the Imperial Guard.

Therefore, in regular troops, the imperial guards are equivalent to the A unit, and the Xiang army belongs to the B unit. Most of the people who fight on the border are imperial guards, and the Xiang army provides some assistance.

According to the list of ban bans, there should be 429 imperial guards and 870 ban bans. In other words, the prefecture-level city of Quanzhou has a total of 1,299 garrisons.

On the hot day, Gan Qi and Shi Honglei sat on the crumbling general platform, waiting for the thousand two hundred and ninety-nine people to gather.

After waiting for a long time, sweating profusely, I slowly reached two or three hundred people. The worn felt hats were originally red but already black military uniforms, carrying the gun bars with crooked spears, and the rusty blades.

If we really count Quanzhou, it may have not fought for hundreds of years. Even in the late Tang Dynasty, the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms, there was no war here, and there was nothing worth fighting here. Whoever won outside Fujian would almost belong to Fujian.

The soldiers were not even standing in a straight line. The thin teenager and the old man with gray hair were all soldiers. However, these soldiers were honest and could not dare to show up even if they saw dozens of iron armor.

Gan Qi was too lazy to wait, so he stood up and asked, "Where is the head of the horse army? Where is the head of the infantry army? How about the head of the infantry army? "

A unit without a horse can also divide a horse and infantry army.

An old man stepped forward and bowed: "Report to Shangguan, the old man has already been invited. Lei Dutou should be on the way out of the city. Qi Dutou has returned to the countryside. It may not be possible if he can't come back today."

"Oh..." Gan Qi was not angry, but just sighed. If this happened in the northwest, after a few drums, he would be afraid that his head would fall to the ground. In Quanzhou, he would not be forced.

After sighing, Gan Qi spoke: "The prefectural magistrate, the document will come later. Lei Hu Qi Qing will be dismissed on the spot. The candidate will be arranged by Shi Honglei, the general manager of Quanzhou's military and horse capital. This is here today. Tomorrow, after the three-way drum, all the military soldiers who are not in the army will be expelled from the army. You will bring this news to everyone today. General Shi will be there to order the escort and follow this method."

The old man hurriedly bowed: "After... obey the order."

There were also some discussions in the audience. This military status is still very important to them. Although the military status is low, there is no land or property, and there is no craftsmanship. Although the food and salary are often not sufficient, at least they cannot starve to death. It is better to live without death. If you can do some other business while serving in the army, you can barely live with your wife and have children. If you lose your military status, you will really go hungry.

Gan Qi waved his hand: "Let's go away. I'll remember it all tomorrow morning."

After saying that, Gan Qi walked off the stage and came back tomorrow.

For Gan Qi at this time, there was a little good thing about the Song Dynasty, that is, civil officials who were above the top and those who had received the teachings of saints were basically in power in various prefectures, especially those in Quanzhou, which must have had great power.

If there are heavy troops in the border town, civil officials will have many constraints, such as prefectures, governors, placing envoys, recruiting envoys, prosecutors, and eunuchs and military supervisors. Often, there is no one who can really keep the word. If you agree, I agree, and he agrees, he will also agree, so that you can do big things. Otherwise, if there is a problem, whoever agrees will take the blame.

Early the next morning, Gan Qi came in person again. Many things about Gan Qi were difficult to deal with without solving the military affairs. Therefore, the military affairs were the top priority.

The drum has already sounded three times. With the frightened fear of being expelled from the military yesterday, today is good. Not long after, seven or eight hundred people stood on the school ground.

Shi Honglei was very experienced and didn't need to count. He just spread his palms in the air and gestured twice, then frowned and said, "Mr. Gan, there are 1,299 people on the list. Today, there are only more than 800..."

Shi Honglei's words were reminding Gan Qi that an officer was experiencing an empty salary, receiving 1,299 military salary, and only 800 people were raised.

Gan Qi replied: "Do you see these people with pale faces and thin skin? They have to eat their empty salary, but they have also been eaten by people."

The military pay for the Song Dynasty was a soldier who had always been in power in one month, and the imperial guards could reach a soldier of about four or five. It was not high, but it would never make people starved to be pale and thin. If the chief generals of the border town were in the battle, the chief generals would often give more rewards.

Shi Honglei's face was already angry. In the northwest, soldiers really wanted to go into battle. How dare the chief officer and general do this? Then what formation should he go into? Not to mention the chief officer and general have a good conscience, in the northwest, if the army is not strong and defeated, what will the civil servants talk about? Will the military officer still be protected?

So when Shi Honglei saw this scene, he rose from a soldier with his head all the way, so he was naturally very angry about this kind of thing.

No. 7 or 800 is just 7 or 800, and it is acceptable. There are about 3 or 400 old people who are not worth using. After reorganizing it, there are 3 or 400 young people who are worth using it. In addition, the dozens of men brought by Gan Qi can barely form a camp song of 500 people. It is barely enough.

"Call the name!" Ganqi ordered.

Shi Honglei took out the list brought from the magistrate's office.

But at this moment, suddenly a man rushed over from the gate of the military camp, walked straight through the queue, pushed away the obstruction people left and right, and bowed before the general platform, "Little man Lei Hu, pay homage to the magistrate!"

Gan Qi looked at the man, fat, fat head and ears, holding a big smile, panting, looking at Gan Qi, Gan Qi said unhappily: "You have been removed from your post, go line up."

"Hehe... Gan Zhizhou, the villain was really sorry yesterday, and he didn't know that the magistrate would be early. Today, it was not late. I would like to ask the magistrate not to remember that the villain had passed. If the generals were to gather troops in the future, as long as the magistrate gave an order, the villain would come overnight to wait for the magistrate to come." Lei Hu's face was so beautiful that his flesh trembled. This was in sharp contrast to the yellow face and thin skin of a group of people.

Gan Qi was not in the mood to talk about Lei Hu about these things, but just raised his hand and waved it: "Go down and line up!"

Lei Hu was not angry, and still had a big smile: "Hehe...Magistrate, the villain holds a banquet in the Banquet Building tonight, and I also invite the magistrate to come. Although the villain is a military man, he also has some wealth in his family. As long as the magistrate can use the villain's place, the villain will definitely go through fire and water without hesitation."

Gan Qi was a little stunned. Is it so straightforward in public?

Gan Qi was a little annoyed, and he was disgusted. He turned around and asked, "After the three-way drum, what should the military law be dealt with if the general is not there?"

Shi Honglei replied loudly: "If it is wartime, you should be killed according to the rules. If it is thirty years old, you will be demoted to the next level."

Gan Qi raised his hand and pointed: "Did this guy arrive yesterday?"

“Not arrived!”

"Is this guy here on time today?"

“Not arrived!”

Gan Qi stood up and said, "Come on, fight!"

Shi Honglei listened to the order loudly: "Abide by the order!"

At this time, Lei Hu's smile finally disappeared, and he said hurriedly: "Gan Magistrate, the villain has never offended you. It takes some time for the villain to live in the city, and it takes some time to leave the city. The villain did not deliberately put your face on his face. The villain is willing to go through fire and water for the magistrate, so he will never refuse."

Several iron-armored soldiers had already stepped forward to press Lei Hu.

Gan Qi shouted angrily: "Fight, throw it out of the military camp after the fight, and remove the military from the military."

Several military men pressed the thunder tiger to the ground, and the wooden stick came. The back was the one that hit the back, the huge wooden stick and the strong iron-armed military men. With one blow, they were howling like a pig.

"Gan governor, the villain is loyal, the sun and the moon can be seen, the governor will spare his life!"

Gan Qi had an irritable expression on his face.

Shi Honglei hurriedly said, "Clog your mouth to avoid tainting Mr. Gan's ears."

After a crackling round, after thirty years, several iron-armored soldiers carried the fainting Lei Hu out of the military camp in almost a second.

"Continue to call the name and re-create the registration." Gan Qi said.

Shi Honglei took the roster and began to call out loudly. If he arrived, he would take a note and let the man go to the other side of the schoolyard. If he didn't arrive, he would draw a note and get rid of the name.

After the name was called, Gan Qi personally went to the front of the head of the General Stage, inspected the left and right for a few times, and said, "Everyone, the food and salary will be distributed in full in the future according to the court's regulations. The governor's office will also provide you with additional salary and money, so that you can support your family without any worries and save a little."

There were pairs of numb eyes below, which surprised Gan Qi. Gan Qi thought that as soon as he said this, there would be a thunderous scene. He didn't expect such a reaction. It seemed that these people did not believe in the promises made by the officials.

Fortunately, Gan Qi has a backup plan: "Although today is not the day of paying wages, the Japanese official brought the wages and first paid the monthly salary. Then, General Shi will evaluate you, and the entire army will be reorganized. Those with strong strength will join the imperial guards, with a full amount of five per month, and the governor's yamen will make up for another five per month. Those with weak strength will make up for another five per month, and the governor's yamen will make up for another five per month."

The numb eyes changed a little, but they were just watching.

Just after Gan Qi waved his hand, a box was really brought to the general's table. When the box was opened, it was really money.

Listen to Shi Honglei: "Zhang Dazhu."

"The villain is here."

"Come here, always."

Zhang Dazhu, with a tall figure, was not big, as thin as a bamboo pole. He shrank and walked under the platform. Shi Honglei took out a large string of copper coins in his hand, threw them into his arms, and said, "Return to the team."

Zhang Dazhu held the money, looked at the money, looked at Shi Honglei, looked at the money, looked at Shi Honglei, then went to look at Gan Qi, and then went to see him.

"Return to the team, can you, don't you, want to get into a backlash?" Shi Honglei roared.

But Zhang Dazhu suddenly knelt on his legs, tears flowed from his eyes without warning, kowtowed, and shouted: "Little man Zhang Dazhu thanked Master Qingtian for his kindness!"

"Get out." Shi Honglei said.

Zhang Dazhu quickly got up and returned to the team with the money.

Looking at the whole audience, everyone's eyes were full of spirits, focusing all on Gan Qi.

Gan Qi looked at the eyes of the audience and murmured: "This country is really difficult."

The food and salary were sent, kowtowed one by one, and thanked him one by one. Quanzhou, the soldiers in Quanzhou, where the mountains were high and the emperor were far away, seemed to be forgotten people of this era, people in the most corner of this era. They never got a little dignity, nor did they get a trace of kindness from others. In the most corner of the era, they struggled to survive and lived like mice in the gutter.

Looking at the excited faces, Gan Qi kept sitting on the stage without leaving. Until all the money was paid, Gan Qi spoke: "Everyone, disband first and send the money home. Don't eat too much at noon. If you have a teaching exam in the afternoon, you can get two stagnant money in a month. If you cannot enter the stagnant, you will only have one stagnant five."

At this time, someone took the initiative to answer: "The magistrate has the strongest human power, and the villain can join the imperial guards."

This is because of the spirit. Gan Qi smiled and replied, "I will talk about it after the afternoon teaching exam. Let's go and wait after eating."

"The villain won't go back, just wait here."

Gan Qi laughed loudly when he heard this. As long as his spirit comes back, this army will be available.

Gan Qi didn't say much, and went off the stage directly. He stopped coming to the afternoon. Shi Honglei was very experienced and thought he would not do anything wrong.

Gan Qi had something else, that is, to get some equipment for these soldiers, and to make the weapons decent. He also had to buy armor for these people. Not to mention iron armor, but also to prepare iron armor to protect the vital points.

Quanzhou already has iron ore, and several iron fields produce a lot. As long as you are willing to spend money, these are not difficult.

The food in the military camp must also be improved, and there must be meat for every meal. The men who were picked up must be raised within one or two months.

When he returned to the government office, Gan Qi called Tu Qiu to the front, and Tu Qiu also smiled.

At this moment, Gan Qi suddenly felt that the smile on Tu Qiu's face was very similar to the smile on Lei Hu's face just now, and it felt exactly the same.
