Chapter 330 Garrison Assemble (Part 1)
In the territory of the Cons army, with the sound of a trumpet of military mobilization, the Cons army, which was stationed in various places, immediately approached the higher level.
When the garrison in the hinterland of the Cons army assembled into the wing, it automatically stopped aggregation and began to advance towards the border of the sea spring.
However, the left-behind corps scattered and entered the nearby important cities to guard the city, and the public security of the people was also handed over to the guards temporarily formed by the Shangmin and the gentry.
Except for encountering patrols composed of locals on the street from time to time, the people in these places cannot feel the arrival of the atmosphere of war, and life remains the same.
The garrisons on the border of the Cons army, especially those adjacent to the Haiquan Province, quickly assembled into a corps, immediately marched in a certain direction, and then assembled while marching, and finally the two brigades appeared.
The villages and towns scattered in the countryside, under the command of Shangmin and the gentry, packed up their houses and moved to the nearby cities. When the villagers left, the originally noisy place was immediately deserted and silent. All the things that could be moved were moved away.
The slaves who were working in the local area were also reorganized and weapons were distributed. These slaves were mostly prisoners of war captured by the Cons army, and their military qualities were much better than ordinary people. They were equipped with weapons and organized, and soon armed slave brigades were formed one by one. Then, under the leadership of the captains who came from the airborne, they followed the footsteps of the Cons army to a certain direction.
As for worrying that the slaves will riot? This is a waste of worrying.
I am afraid of comparison in everything. Think about the treatment of slaves now, think about the experience of being a soldier in the past, think about the very clear requirements for level improvement in the Cons army, and think about the ability in other places who are capable of getting promoted and will be embezzled. From these comparisons, we can see that the treatment of civilians in other places is even worse than that of slaves in the Cons army. Since this is the case, idiots know how to choose.
Jiji is such a slave who knows how to choose.
He was caught at the age of seventeen and did not admit that he was a prisoner of war because he had never used a knife. How could he be a prisoner of war?
However, everyone sneered at this question. Now the Cons army has only slaves but no prisoners of war. Since this is the case, why do you still know whether you are a prisoner of war? Do you still want to use this to escape from the status of a slave? Dreaming in the daytime!
Jiji's idea is really like this, but unfortunately he is not recognized.
Originally, according to his cleverness, it was easy to get the people of the Three People when the Cons army arrived. Unfortunately, the master family he served was clamoring to break the family and fight the enemy. A small tycoon with only thirty or forty people in the whole family, including the gatekeeper, actually took the initiative to attack the Cons army organized by a brigade passing by in front of the gate.
The result is conceivable. This little tycoon was instantly destroyed. Before he could react, Jiji became a slave.
Hearing that he became a slave, Jiji could already imagine what his future would be like. At that time, while claiming to be unlucky, he also began to plan how to escape from the slave camp.
But the rest of his life surprised Jiji.
On the day he entered the slave camp, he started to register his identity and name and then received the distribution products. Like many people, Jiji looked at the things in his hand in a daze, a set of washing utensils and three sets of washing clothes, and these things were actually brand new! When he was a servant, he got a new piece of clothes. Now he is a slave, but there are three sets of clothes?!
When we were having the first meal at the slave camp, everyone was shocked again. The food was actually coarse grains, dried vegetables, green vegetable soup, and it was enough to use unlimited amounts!
Knowing this, Jiji and others immediately thought they were in heaven. No wonder, in this year, their longing for heaven was so simple. Because even the staple food of the rich family had long been replaced with coarse grains.
In the era of warlords fighting, what left behind after a war? The old, weak, sick and disabled, who were hungry everywhere, were extremely short of food!
It is very simple to say that warlords only pursue victory in their battles, so when the war is fierce, they will even pull all the males within their control into the army. After a war is over, there will be no more than half of the strong men on both sides.
Some crazy losers, in order to retaliate against the winners, even burn all the stored grain and farmland. This would be strange if there is no shortage of food.
Therefore, although the empire was not under warlords for a long time, at least 10% of its strong men in the empire were lost, and the grain output was so low that it could not even meet the current population, let alone any increase in production.
So in this year, everyone has lived without a meal. Now when we encounter food that is full, we should not eat it with our stomachs.
Jiji, who was so full of his stomach that he could not walk completely, thought like others that if he could keep eating and eating, it would be nothing more to be a slave.
You must know that even the original little officers could not have enough food, let alone the little soldiers. As for whether they would dislike the lack of oil and water? Please, the landlords have no surplus food these days, who dares to ask for so many requests?
A meal reduced the resistance in Jiji's uneasy heart to a minimum. After the marshalling was completed and the slave camp officials read out the rules, Jiji was even more surprised to find that his slave seemed to be no different from being a servant, except for his lack of freedom, holidays, and no salary.
As for what the slave officials said, as long as they perform well, they can get rid of their slave status, few people in the entire slave camp will believe it. Because the trick of hanging a radish in front of the donkey and luring it to travel, even a rural peasant woman can use it skillfully. Who would believe in this kind of pie falling from the sky?
However, Jiji's joy did not last long, because he realized next that although the treatment was good, the slave was a slave.
First, there are stricter disciplines than the army. These disciplines cannot be violated, because once they are violated, they are either whipped half to death or executed directly.
Then there was heavy and dangerous labor. It was not until this moment that Gigi suddenly realized that the Cons army dared to proclaim that the people of the Cons army did not need to be employed. It turned out that we slaves were all working for us.
Originally, Gigi could not bear so much labor, and his mentality of running away reappeared. Most slaves did not dare to escape because of family problems, but Gigi, who was an orphan, did not have this kind of concern.
However, the treatment of food and meals was full and made him feel embarrassed. Jiji is worthy of being a clever person. He did not consider whether he could escape, but instead thought about what he would encounter when he escaped.
Don’t think too much, you must have been arrested by other warlords as cannon fodder soldiers. Not to mention whether you can eat enough, you can even explain your life in the first battle.
With this comparison, idiots know how to choose. Jiji is smarter than idiots, so of course he chooses something that is beneficial to him.
Speaking of which, humans are really a very cheap creature. The more they protect, the more fragile it is, the more harm it is, the more it is, the stronger it is, and it can grow vigorously without paying attention.
With the support of the meal and meal filling, Jiji finally survived the hard work of the first period, and then he gradually became accustomed to it. When his muscles were as strong as stones, Jiji didn't think that the current work was hard.
But although Jiji is still fantasizing about freedom, after all, slaves are treated like this, even the treatment of untouchables who are higher than slaves should be better than slaves. However, because he has never seen the treatment of these untouchables, this seduction is not fierce.
Gradually, Jiji thought he would spend his life as a slave. He was completely used to this kind of life where he worked hard and had food, clothes, and had a house to sleep. Now he was driven out of the slave camp, and he didn't want to because he didn't know how to settle his life.
The consequence of long-term brain failure is that your brain becomes dull.
When Jiji was a little tilted towards the walking corpse state, a thunderclap woke him up.
During a gathering of all the people, the officials in the slave camp read out a list of slaves. At that time, they thought that these slaves would be punished for committing a crime, but unexpectedly, the officials announced that they had been separated from their slave status and became untouchables because of their outstanding performance. Some of them became commoners!
Jiji looked at the slaves happily receiving the level badges, then quickly washed them, put on brand new clothes and wore the badges, and finally went to attend the farewell party held by the officials with a reserved look on their faces.
Jiji didn't know what others thought. He only knew that his eyes were red with jealousy, and he was so regretful that he wanted to take off his head and kick it a few times!
I am an idiot! Why do I remember sleeping when I am tired of eating and working, is I a livestock or what?
I don’t believe the officials?! If I had performed more a few days ago, I would have my own place at this banquet now!
I guess everyone thinks the same thing. When the freshly released free people leave the camp, there is no idle figure in the entire slave camp, and everyone works hard.
I know that such promotion is only once a year, and everyone has not reduced their enthusiasm because there is no limit on the number of places for this promotion. In other words, as long as the entire camp performs well, it is possible to cancel the slave status in the entire camp!
Just as everyone was busy, another louder thunder trembled in Gigi's ears. The Cons army will select a certain number of soldiers from the slaves!
Everyone within the sphere of influence of the Cons army knew that the Cons army was definitely synonymous with glory and wealth! Even if they died in battle, they could earn a generous amount of pension, let alone the rewards they received when they made contributions.
The most important point is that only by joining the army can you have the opportunity to win three enemy heads. Three merits are the basic requirements for promotion to the people.
I am a Shangmin! When I think of this, Jiji's saliva flows down, which represents twenty acres of Yongye Field.
Jiji knew very well that as soon as the news was conveyed, the entire slave camp was boiling because the blood in his body had already been hot.
Immediately afterwards, when the slave camp officials announced that there were only one hundred places in the base camp, the atmosphere in the camp first frozen rapidly, and then a breath of anxiety appeared like dark clouds. Jiji knew that others became very anxious like him.
If it weren't for the rule of killing a companion, the slaughtering activity would be held immediately.
Looking at his strong muscles and strong strength, Jiji was a little nervous because his ability was not among the top 100 in the camp. It seemed that there was no hope this time.
As Jiji thought, he failed the exam, but he was not as scrambled to the sky like others, but instead he was secretly happy.
One hundred of the most powerful people in the battalion were selected, and my current strength was definitely one of the best. Even if I choose ten people next time, I will be sure to be selected. Hey, I just need to wait for a while to realize my dream. I don’t believe that the Cons army will not need to expand its troops in the future.
Jiji worked hard while fighting the chain while waiting foolishly. When he finally waited for the news that the Cons army recruited a warlord, destroyed a warlord, and annexed three warlords, Jiji jumped up happily. The territory became so large that he definitely needed more troops to control it, and his chance came.
Unfortunately, the conscription order did not come, but instead brought tens of thousands of strong slaves into the camp.
The increase in the number of people made it insufficient for the administrators of the slave camp, and the elderly Jiji and others naturally served as small leaders like the sergeant.
Jiji was not happy about this. First, this was not a formal official position. Even if he controlled a thousand people, he was still a slave. He had to salute him when he saw a civilian. There was nothing to be happy about.
Second, there are at least hundreds of newcomers who can compete with me. There are three of my team alone, and only four of them have them. Such an unreasonable thing happens around me. How can I be happy?
Just as Jiji was worried about gains and losses for a long time, the elderly, weak, women and children in the slave camp suddenly packed their luggage and retreated to the hinterland of the Cons army. The young and strong slaves began to form. After a brigade was organized, a strange captain in the imperial uniform immediately came down.
Why is it weird? It's very simple. The military rank is the first-class private, but the identity level is the badge of the next-level powerful warrior.
The slaves who were a little despised by this first-class private immediately respected him. Jiji even gave the three fools in his ranks with only strength to stand up.
Jiji, who made his brains re-flexive because of his pursuit, memorized all the information he could access. In this way, soldiers with low rank and high rank are all the confidants of the General Supervisor, and looking down on them is like seeking death.
The captain had nothing nonsense and said, "The enemy invaded, you have been incorporated into the reserve team."
They each got a spear.
At the beginning, everyone was a little slow, but the captain shouted, "Listen! In this battle, the merits you have established are treated the same as those of the regular army. Whether I can improve depends on your performance!"
Jiji, who was holding the spear, was excited when he heard this. Unexpectedly, the opportunity that he had not been waiting for for a long time came, and immediately shouted: "Salary for lord!" hf();
