The Prodigal Son’s Happy Life - Chapter 1032

[Chapter 1032: Treatment of the New Army]

“New Army?”

When Zhao Feng heard this, he showed surprise on his face and said, “This is the first time I heard about it, what are the skills of this New Army?”

Since Zhao Feng is willing to come back to find him, this This explains some problems.

An Guogong may have deliberately wanted to recruit these original garrison troops and use them to form a new army.

It dawned on him.

Why did the Anguo Guild, which had so many things to do, go all the way here because of a trivial matter like military camp? It had already done so many things.

When the military system was abolished, they did not blink an eye.

It turns out that I had already thought about it.

It’s just that after finally getting rid of their status as soldiers, many people are not willing to continue to be soldiers, so it’s better to find out some things clearly.

As for the unwillingness to join the pro-army, the Anguo Guild will not stand behind his back.

In this regard, Zhao Rui has only met An Guogong once, and he can be sure that An Guogong is not that kind of person!

Moreover, over the years, An Guogong has always been true to his word, and there has never been a time when what he said has not been fulfilled.

A gentleman’s promise is worth a thousand gold, but An Guogong’s promise is worth more than a thousand gold!

Zhao Feng had long thought that Zhao Rui would ask him this question, and replied: “This new army is based on the Shenji Camp. Whether it is weapons and equipment, training, or welfare benefits, they are all the same as the Shenji Camp.” When

Zhao Rui heard this, His eyes lit up.

Although he has never seen what Shenji Camp looks like, he has heard of its name.

If everything was the same as Shenji Camp, it would be a good place to go!

Zhao Feng continued: “I have already inquired about the salary of the Shenji Camp. The first is the monthly salary. An ordinary soldier is two taels of silver. The captain of ten will receive an additional five hundred coins, and the captain of a centurion will receive an additional five hundred coins. The captain’s salary is five taels of silver, and the captain’s salary is ten taels of silver a month.

In addition, it is food, clothing, housing and transportation. If he joins the new army, An Guogong can provide enough money to build enough houses for people with families. , every festival, all kinds of food and bedding will be distributed, and these are all personally handled by Anguo Gong.

No one can touch them. I heard from people in the house that there used to be a school captain in the Shenji Camp who had embezzled the money. The clothes distributed by Yuanjie were sent directly to the government dungeon by An Guogong. There was no other nonsense.

Therefore

, what I just mentioned are real things that can be obtained by the brothers.

There should be some benefits, but the people I know are all the guards of An Guogong. They follow An Guogong on weekdays and have only seen some things, but they don’t know the specific things about the Shenji Camp. What they said is that they understand Yes.

If you are interested in joining the new army, you can ask Duke An. I believe Duke An will be happy to tell you.”

After saying this, Zhao Feng felt his throat was dry and swallowed.

Looking up, he suddenly found that everyone was looking at him with a very strange look.

There was shock, envy, depression, and suspicion in those eyes

. Zhao Feng ignored those envious eyes and looked directly at those who were judging him with suspicious eyes without giving in at all.

What he said was what he heard.

Although the guards in the house may not be serious sometimes, they are very reliable no matter what they do or what they say.

There is no need for them to deceive themselves about this matter.

Can an ordinary pawn earn two taels of silver a month?

At this moment, after Zhao Rui calmed down, a certain amount of doubt arose in his heart.

It’s not that I doubt what Zhao Feng said, nor that Anguo Guild lied about the welfare benefits of the new army.

But, can An Guogong get so much money?

There are only more than 10,000 people in Shenji Camp.

After the new army is formed, there will definitely be more than 10,000 people.

Not counting the salaries of lieutenant generals, lieutenants, and captains of thousands, it’s just armor, weapons, especially fire guns. Taken together, it’s impossible to build one without one hundred thousand taels of silver a month.

He knew that An Guogong was never short of silver, but even An Guogong couldn’t afford such a large amount of silver, right?

Unless the Ministry of War and the Ministry of Household are willing to support An Guogong.

But everyone knows that although An Guogong is the elder of Xiaoge, for some reasons, he does not have a good relationship with the people of the Sixth Department.

Even people from the Sixth Department once thought of threatening An Guogong by reporting illness.

Could it be that Anguo Gongfu alone could provide so much money?

Seeing Zhao Rui’s expressionless face, Zhao Feng thought for a moment and then added: “Beizhi had been approved by An Guogong before he came. An Guogong told Beizhi that if any brothers are willing to join the new army, there is no need to worry about the monthly salary.

As long as it is What Duke An Guo promised to the new army is to sell his ancestral home and he will definitely do it!”

Zhao Rui’s eyes lit up when he heard this.

Not because of this promise, but because of this courage.

Even if they have to sell their ancestral home, they will definitely do it. The world is so big, how many people can make such a promise?

I’m afraid His Majesty the Emperor may not be able to do this.

In the eyes of the princes in the court, this may be called acting on impulse, but in the eyes of a vulgar warrior like him, this just shows that An Guogong is a person who is extremely committed to his promises. He not only honors his promises, but also has enough responsibility!

He remembered that he had heard some rumors in the past.

When An Guogong was still an unknown person, he once mortgaged his ancestral home for several thousand taels of silver.

At that time, many people thought that An Guogong was a dandy, a prodigal, and a scumbag.

Now that I think about it, maybe An Guogong did this because of a certain promise at that time!

For some reason, the face of that handsome young man with extraordinary temperament appeared in Zhao Rui’s mind involuntarily.

“An Guogong”

Zhao Rui muttered to himself.

Isn’t it someone like An Guogong that I want to follow?

At a certain moment, Zhao Rui seemed to have figured it out and finally made a decision. He looked at Zhao Feng and said firmly: “Dong An Guo is a leader among people. He is the Wen Qu star and Bing Qu star in the sky. He can follow someone like An Guo Gong.” It’s our honor!

If Duke An Guo wants to build a new army, then I will definitely be among the first to join the new army!” When

Zhao Feng heard this, he nodded and said, “What if you say that? If you tell me the truth, you can come back with me later. Mr. Anguo wants to see you.” When

Zhao Rui heard this, he was slightly startled and asked, “What if I said that what I just said was not the truth, but just polite words. , what should I do?”

Zhao Feng said: “Before I came to the humble post, An Guogong said that Zhao Rui is a talent. There are too few people in the world who can sacrifice their own interests for his subordinates. Even if he is unwilling to join the New Army, I respect him. If a man encounters any trouble in the future, just ask him to come to Kyoto to find me, and I will solve it for him.

This is what Duke An Guo said.”
