Chapter 163 Recruiting female guards!
"Sir Chang, I want to surrender to the army!"
"Sir Chang, I also want to surrender to the army!"
"I want it too, I want it too..."
Chang Daoyan looked at the group of people who rushed to join the army. After a moment of confusion, he immediately frowned and drove away.
“Nonsense, you are all local students, there is no reason for a scholar to join the army!” He had seen all these students before, and all of them had extraordinary literary talent. Even if he is not that outstanding, he is still good enough to teach and educate people. How can he join the army?
Don’t they know that the teams they voted for were all anti-thief teams?
Have they learned all the sages’ books they have learned over the years into the dog’s belly?
"Sir Chang, we heard that Mr. Lan loves soldiers as much as his own children. It is a blessing for us scholars to be able to serve under him and work for him!"
"Sir Chang, All the students in the private school have dropped out. If we don’t find another way out, our whole family will starve to death if we don’t survive this month!”
"Mr. Chang, I heard that if you surrender to the army, you will get two taels of rice and cotton-padded clothes. I am poor and have too many younger brothers and sisters. I don't even have a decent piece of clothing. Fortunately, I heard someone tell me that Master Lan's guardhouse is not only Three meals a day, I can eat enough, and have thick cotton clothes to wear. "
"Mr. Chang, please have mercy. Let’s find a way to survive!”
Chang Daoyan looked at the hungry and cold people covered with frostbite, and felt extremely sad!
As a parent official, his job is to keep the local people fed and clothed. He has neglected his duty!
But, those are rebels...
These people only want three meals a day, and looking at their appearance, if they are not dealt with as soon as possible, they may not survive this winter!
In previous years’ disaster reports, a series of cold figures deeply hurt Chang Daoyan’s heart!
"Okay, I will take you to the guard station personally. If you decide to surrender to the army at that time, I will never stop you. If you don't want to surrender to the army, I will risk my life to do it. Bring it out!"
"Thank you, Mr. Chang, Mr. Chang is Mr. Qingtian..."
......
"Bring the people to the guardhouse?" Shen Lanxi asked with raised eyebrows.
Wei Dongzhu thought: "I'm afraid they are here to verify the truth. There may be spies among these people. It's best not to let them enter the guardhouse!"
Shen Lanxi shook his head: "Let them enter. , take them with you personally. If there are spies inside, deal with them quietly!"
"...Yes!"
Wei Dongzhu took two Wei family troops and watched them in person.
The time chosen by Chang Dao happened to be the time for the guard station to eat. Hundreds of people in the guard station ate in batches in an orderly manner. Each soldier had a smile on his face, but there was no urgency.
"Mr. Chang, what they eat is not black buns, but white noodles."
"Mr. Chang, there are several pieces of meat in their bowls, as well as tofu and cabbage. "
"Mr. Chang, they each have three big steamed buns and a full bowl of vegetables. There are a lot of oily flowers floating in the dishes, so fragrant! "
"Mr. Chang..."< br>
With one sentence, Mr. Chang had already told Chang Daoyan to break the defense. If he hadn't decided to come to the guardhouse to see him at the last moment. If it weren't for the fact that these meals were already placed here, and if it weren't for the fact that although these people all devoured the food without fighting over it, and were obviously used to eating it, he would definitely have thought it was a fake, show it to him!
Young man Lanxi feeds and drinks such a soldier, aren't you afraid that he will use up all the food in a few days?
The beginning of spring in Dongchuan is different from other places. After spring begins here, the temperature is still the same as in winter. Even if he has food in his hands now, he should be careful with his budget instead of eating so lavishly.
He is really not a man of the family. He doesn’t know how expensive firewood, rice, oil and salt are. In order to win over the troops, he is really willing to go out of his way!
"Sir Chang, we are willing to sign up. If we sign up now, can we eat here?"
"Sir Chang, I haven't eaten in two days!"
< br>"Mr. Chang..."
Wei Dongzhu glanced at Chang Daoyan and said, "Mr. Chang, are you here to send them to join the army?" The people following Chang Daoyan all shouted. She looked at him expectantly.
Even if he knew there must be a conspiracy, it would be difficult for Chang Daoyan to say no!
"...If they surrender to the army now, can they have food now?" After Chang Daoyan finished speaking, he felt that a floodgate in his heart suddenly opened.
As long as the people in the jurisdiction can eat, it doesn't matter whether he is a rebel or something else.
"Is there a place to recruit soldiers here?" Chang Daoyan asked with a red face.
Wei Dongzhu led the way: "Follow me!"
After he finished speaking, he immediately ordered his subordinates: "Tell the kitchen to add food for fifty people! ”
“Yes!”
For the next few days, Chang Daoyan brought people to see him, one on the first day, two on the second day... and a group on the fifth day!
Shen Lanxi began to sell charcoal in large quantities, and pigeons and eagles flew out one after another. After two days, pigeons and eagles flew back one after another.
After Shen Lanxi sent and received the letters, she began to process the official documents!
The official documents on her desk were submitted after several rounds of screening, and the screeners were all students from Qinglan Academy.
"Establish a literacy class in the health center and spend half an hour every day reading."
Cheng Zheng and Sang Guo were recording on the side!
“Recruit female soldiers!”
A drop of ink dropped on the rice paper.
Cheng Zheng and others’ eyes widened!
Shen Lanxi: "Those who are poor at home can send their women to join the army, and they can be female guards, medical girls, cooks, or embroiderers!"
"Additionally, female soldiers enjoy Male soldiers are treated the same!”
Is this really what it is? Cheng Zheng wrote quickly.
Shen Lanxi: "Write, I will report to Ma Feng in person later that most of the military households in the village have been expropriated, and the land is uncultivated."
Cheng Zheng and others Although I was sweating anxiously, I couldn't speak, so I could only write down my words of advice word by word!
Before he finished writing, he was interrupted by Shen Lanxi.
“I have made up my mind!”
Cheng Zheng was afraid that Shen Lanxi would misunderstand, so he quickly unfolded the paper.
It said: "We do not despise women!"
Sang Guo: "The tree is big and attracts the wind, it is difficult for the higher ups to explain!"
Shen Lanxi: "I understand your point "I mean, do you think they have time to decide whether women join the army or men join the army?"
This sentence stopped them.
“As long as the entire land is cultivated during farming, no one will care even if it means recruiting a group of dogs!”
“…” This is so true!
The status of women in the Zhou Dynasty was low, and many of them sold their wives and daughters in order to survive. Now that there is war and chaos outside, it is already expensive for a woman to exchange for half a bag of rice.
Now, as soon as they heard that female guards were being recruited and they were given money and food, some poor families living in the mountains, wearing stars and moonlight, led their daughters to the guards!
“Son, here you can have enough food and clothing, and you don’t have to be ruined by others. If it weren’t for your grandparents and your younger brothers and sisters to take care of, your mother would want to come!”
"Girl, this is a good place. You are too young. If you want to survive, you have to beg them to take you in. Later, you rush over and hug that person's leg. Don't let go. You can survive if you have enough to eat. , you know?”
“Two taels is too little, my girl is a yellow flower girl, Chunxiangyuan gives me ten taels... Ouch, why do you hit someone~”
