"Empire Hegemony" Chapter 285
The suburb of Lujiang Prefecture, Mingtai Town.
A side street that can only pass through the town passes through the town, with low adobe houses on both sides, and sundries piled up in the sewage ditch, emitting bursts of stench.
The slightly dilapidated Mingtai Town is now filled with a cheerful atmosphere. Groups of people walk through the street carrying bulging grain bags, with smiles that cannot be concealed on their faces.
The Qinghe army under Chen Zi'ang has already occupied this place, and left two ten-man squadrons to take charge of security and patrol here.
In addition to the twenty soldiers of the Qinghe Army, there is also a five-member government affairs team stationed in Mingtai Town.
The task of this government affairs team is to appease the people here, then distribute food in the warehouse, relieve the poor people, and then fight against bullies and evil gentry, and re-divide the land.
Although there are not many Qinghe troops stationed in Mingtai Town, they are very capable, and what they did quickly won the support of the people of Mingtai Town.
At this moment, a political officer and two soldiers are distributing food to the people in Mingtai Town.
"Everyone, don't be crowded, line up well, and everyone will receive three buckets of food!"
Facing the two soldiers with serious faces, the people who came to collect the food did not dare to make mistakes, and they received them in order, in an orderly manner.
"Recruitment, recruiting, as long as you pass the assessment, you will receive one silver coin per month, and you will be able to control your food and living."
Next to the food distribution point, a ten-man general was leading several soldiers, shouting loudly to recruit soldiers.
"My lord, if you really take care of food and shelter, do you still have a silver coin?"
Hearing this generous remuneration, many young people who were short of food and clothing came to him and asked cautiously.
"That's natural. The treatment of our Qinghe army is first-class in the whole world."
Facing these doubtful young people from small towns, the ten generals in charge of recruiting soldiers looked proud.
"As long as you pass the assessment, you will not only get food and housing, but also get rewards if you make meritorious deeds on the battlefield."
Seeing that more than a dozen young people in the small town were still hesitating, the ten generals added with a smile.
"My lord, how can I pass the examination?"
"We have cavalry, infantry, and archers, which kind of soldiers do you want to be?"
"Infantry." A young man replied.
The ten generals looked at the young man's thin body up and down, and asked him to turn around in a circle. After he was not disabled, he pointed to the stone mill next to him.
"As long as the stone can be ground up, it is considered to have passed the examination."
"Of course, if you know how to blacksmith or see a doctor, you can go directly to the artisan camp, and their treatment is higher."
The dozen or so young people in the small town shook their heads. They are all honest peasants. Forging iron and seeing a doctor are handicrafts. If there is no master to teach them, they will not be able to do it.
"My lord, if I become a soldier, will I have to go far away?"
Some young people worried that after joining the Qinghe Army, they would be far away from their hometown, so they were also hesitant and difficult to make a decision.
"Our Qinghe army is going to fight the world, so naturally we have to go to far away places, but we can still come back after winning the battle."
"By then, you might become generals riding tall horses." The ten generals joked.
"Of course, if you don't want to leave your hometown, you can stay there. After all, we have divided the land here, and the imperial court is definitely not happy. We need the army to stay here to defend our victory." The ten people will see After these youth, added.
"Can you really stay in your hometown?"
"That's natural, otherwise we divided the land, and those dignitaries came back, wouldn't they want to take it back?"
"Then I will join the Qinghe Army!"
After the young man who asked the question had no worries, he walked straight to the stone mill, took a deep breath, and then bent down to move it, trying to assess it.
Possibly due to malnutrition and weak strength, he only moved a little for the first time, but did not move.
But he didn't let go, but mustered all his strength, and it took a lot of effort to move the stone mill, but his face was flushed.
But within a few seconds of moving it up, the stone mill fell to the ground again because of exhaustion.
"Although the strength is almost weak, let's pass it barely."
 "The ten people will see that this young man has exhausted all his strength. Although he moved up and stayed for a short time, he still passed the rules according to the rules."
The young man was very nervous at first, but when he heard that he had passed the Qinghe army's assessment, his face also revealed a look of surprise.
"Go over there to register. After the recruitment is over, go back to Lujiang Mansion to get the military badge, uniform and weapons." The ten generals said amiably.
"Thank you, my lord."
Soon, the rest of the young people also stepped forward to try. Except for two people who were too weak to pass, the rest of them all passed.
For these young people in Mingtai Town, the Qinghe Army has strict military discipline and generous treatment. They don't care whether they are rebels or not. It's better to be able to eat a living than starve to death.
"My lord, can I take a step to speak?"
After the ten generals recruited more than twenty people, one of the eliminated people approached the ten generals and said in a low voice.
"whats the matter?"
The ten generals followed the young man to the side, then stared at him and asked.
"My lord, can it be convenient, I want to join your army"
While the young man was speaking, he calmly took out two accumulated silver coins from his pocket and stuffed them into the ten-member general.
"What are you doing, take it back quickly!"
Seeing the young man stuffing himself with silver coins, the faces of the ten generals immediately turned cold.
"My lord, if it is not enough, I will share half of my military salary with you."
This young man was also attracted by the generous treatment of the Qinghe Army, so he really wanted to join the Qinghe Army, but was eliminated, so he had to come up with a way.
"Take it back. If you really want to join our Qinghe Army, go back and get your body back on the ground. You will still have a chance when you recruit soldiers next time."
The ten people put the silver coins back into the young man's hands, and said earnestly.
"grown ups"
"That's the end of this matter, put it away, I don't want it." The ten generals justly refused to accept the bribe.
The ten-man general didn't want to entangle too much here, and immediately walked towards the recruiting point with big strides, leaving behind a young man with a frustrated face.
This scene happened to be seen by Chen Ziang who was passing by, and he couldn't help but nodded with satisfaction. This is like a soldier of their Qinghe Army, always upright, loyal and brave.
The arrival of Chen Ziang and his group caught Mingtai town's recruiting point and food distribution point by surprise. They never expected that such a big man as Chen Ziang would come here.
"Wang Mingyang, ten generals from the Second Banner Battalion of the First Banner Regiment, pays his respects to the general!"
"Zhou Hai, Administrative Officer of the 31st Administrative Team of Gentleman Camp, pays his respects to the General!"
The two persons in charge rushed to Chen Ziang quickly, stood up and saluted, looking very excited. (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
