Zhu Pingan left from Zhang smith, and then one by one visited other smiths and all the apprentices, warm and nagging, without any omission, so that all people feel the importance of, although not to the point of being grateful, but also touched by the light, the sense of belonging to the Zhejian army straight line soared, and the body and mind also settled down.
No other, the status of blacksmiths in this era is too low, in the hierarchical feudal era, a fourth-ranking official to them, accompanied by them to chat, it is hard to imagine a thing. This kind of thing was only more common in modern society.
These craftsmen there is a craftsman named Liu Jin also came from the Bureau of Warfare, later because also involved in building artillery, but he is not a professional firearms craftsman, just involved in a few times in the casting of the body of the artillery, itself is still a cold weapons craftsman, specialising in the creation of armour, casting of cold weapons such as swords and knives.
However, in this cold weapon era, to obtain two excellent firearms smiths at once, Zhu Pingan was already content.
“I planted a seed, sooner or later it will bear fruit, in some time it will be great days ……”
Zhu Pingan hummed a small song as he walked towards the schoolyard.
After all, Zhu Pingan is a liberal arts background, for firearms also know some general direction, for the specific how to do is no knowledge, but I believe that with these directions to guide, can ensure that Ou ZhiGe, Zhang Hong, they can go on the right path, but also can save a huge amount of time, energy, cost. Just like the saying “Success is 99% perspiration plus 1% inspiration, and often the 1% inspiration is more important than 99% perspiration”, the direction he gave them is the inspiration of inspiration.
He was looking forward to the day when Ou Zhi Ge and Zhang Hong would surprise him, and believed that this day would not be long.
Zhu Pingan hummed a little song all the way to the schoolyard, and when he arrived at the schoolyard, he found that the selection of the chiefs had already come to an end, and only the last seven chiefs were still in the middle of the fierce competition, and all the other chiefs had already been released.
Zhu Pingan asked Liu Mu for the list of freshly released captains, and was surprised to find that Yiwu recruits accounted for most of them.
To be exact, in addition to the fifty-five captains who were directly appointed as captains by virtue of the upper class disciplinary examination, the remaining sixty-five captains, there are still seven captains competing, and of the fifty-eight captains who have already competed, the Yiwu recruits have captured thirty-five captains’ spots in one fell swoop, while the veterans have only captured twenty-three spots.
With the end of the last seven captain competition, the final quota is also determined.
Yiwu people deserve to be a natural breed of soldiers, their years of experience in the first line of fighting, coupled with talent, so that they in this field of captain competition in the light, Yiwu recruits won a total of thirty-eight captain quota, the veterans finally won only twenty-seven captain quota.
In fact, the veterans are not a light, they are bandits and thieves origin, licking blood from the mouth of the knife, after joining the Zheijiang army and off a few months dedicated to training, but also with the Japanese competition once, in fact, is not weak.
Nay, Yiwu recruits are too fierce.
“Big Dagger, you guys have really raised a batch of extraordinary recruits this time with His Excellency.”
Ruofeng and other battalion commanders and generals witnessed the rawness of Yiwu’s new soldiers during the captain competition and could not help but sigh with emotion and admiration.
They originally thought that this competition chief, certainly is the veterans take advantage, it is estimated to steal the vast majority of the chief of the position, but never thought, Yiwu recruits look at an honest and simple, but the physical quality of the body, the hands of a fierce mess, a race of a can fight, a race of a can resist, a race of a formidable, and even hard from the hands of the veterans stole a large portion of the chief of the position.
These new recruits are really fierce.
However, the new recruits and veterans are all their soldiers, they are generals and battalion commanders, the more powerful the soldiers under them, the better.
“Haha, of course, you did not see the scene of the Yiwu people armed fighting at that time, it was really a call, forward and backward, not afraid of life and death, the father armed fighting died, the brother to top up, the brother armed fighting died, the younger brother to top up, the man armed fighting died, the woman to top …… up.When we fight with the Japanese in the future, you will be even more impressed with the Yiwu soldiers that you took us to recruit. In addition, when the lord took us to recruit soldiers specially selected those honest and obedient, hard-working, you will know what a good batch of soldiers it is when you drill them.”
Liu Dazhou said with a smug look on his face.
“Big Dagger, you guys did a good job! The soldiers you have recruited this time are all bullish, there are really no words for them. His Excellency said that there are still a few thousand vacancies in our Zhejiang Army, so next time we recruit soldiers for the Zhejiang Army, it’s better to go to Yiwu.”
Ruofeng and other people on the new soldiers praise, think of zhejiang army still have vacancies, and then recruiting soldiers can be sure to go to Yiwu again.
“Of course to go to Yiwu, I tell you ah, we go to recruit this time, because the number of recruiting is limited, we are excellent in the selection of the best and then the best in the selection of the best, there are still a lot of strong and honest young man because of the name of the no quota and fell out of the election, don’t mention how much heartache. If the recruitment is liberalised, at least 12,000 or 13,000 strong and honest young men can be recruited to meet the requirements. This is only Yiwu County, a county only, in addition to Yiwu County, they are next door to the Yongkang people are not bad, Yiwu people are mainly with the Yongkang people armed combat, armed combat for so many years, Yiwu people did not take advantage of too much, visible Yongkang people’s quality compared to the Yiwu people is not much worse. These two places can at least provide a small 30,000 excellent soldiers.”
Liu Dazhou said with conviction.
“I’m really looking forward to another expansion of our Zhejiang army.”Hearing that there are still small 30,000 excellent soldiers, Xia Laoqi and the others could not help but think about it.
“Hehe, if you want to expand the army, it’s better to quickly train out the new recruits first, and then fight with the Japanese for real, and make convincing achievements. It takes silver to raise an army, especially when the Zhejiang army is treated so well, it takes even more silver. The reason we expanded our army this time is because we performed well under Yingtian City last time, expelled the Japanese, and wiped out the Japanese during the night, so the top was satisfied, and that’s why we expanded our army this time.”
Ruofeng rolled up his sleeves, with a dry face, swept a glance at the recruits in the field, and said to Xia Laoqi and the others.
“With our lord’s wise leadership, several of our battalion commanders are also ruthless characters who lick blood from the mouth of the sword, and the veterans under them have all seen blood, and the new recruits are all so raw and fierce, and the armour is so complete ……The most crucial thing is, the more the Japanese outside make more and more noise, the more they make more and more noise, are you still afraid that there is no chance to make a merit?!”
Xia Laoqi and the others looked at the recruits in the field and said with confidence.
“Hmph, don’t think of fighting a war as so simple, last time we fought the Japanese invaders, our Zhejian army had a lot of softballs, if it wasn’t for your lordship’s careful planning, the outcome would be hard to say.”Ruo Feng hummed and said.
“Don’t worry, those softballs, we are not all clear, although not publicly named them, but we also privately clean them up. They have also changed their ways, these days drilling are transformed. In future wars, with the law of guilt by association, if they dare to go soft again, the White Blade will not forgive them!”
Xia Laoqi and the others sniffed and couldn’t help but slightly redden their faces, most of those softballs appeared inside a few of their battalions.
“Well, that’s also true.”Ruo Feng nodded, with the law of association, there was no fear that they wouldn’t fight bravely to kill the enemy.
