Chapter 251: Mercenaries Armed to the Teeth


This was a signal.

As a clan leader and the uncle of the current emperor, King Fu was punished so severely.

The other princes were very sensible and responded immediately, proactively reporting the status of their own slaves and inviting Jin Yiwei to check.

And change the servants' humble status into good status.

The royal palace took action, and the big families with slaves in their homes also had to take action.

Regarding the treatment of slaves, there were generally two options: one was to dismiss all the slaves.

At this time, Jin Yiwei came with people from the Ministry of Agriculture.

Come and immigrate as a whole family.

The second is that the slave still serves in the original family, but he must establish a new status from the original family, at least legally he is no longer a slave.

The slaves choose one of the two options.

Which option they choose is actually mainly related to the attitude of the master towards the slaves.

If the master of the house is usually mean, the slave will naturally choose the first option, while if the master of the house is generous, most of the servants will choose the second option.

After the household registration of the slaves was changed to good registration, it was a serious crime to beat, scold or even kill the slaves.

The previous rules that could be replaced by fines were no longer useful, and the court could accept the case if they sued themselves.

If they were unwilling to sue themselves or were unable to sue, the local Patrol officers and guards can appeal to the court on their behalf.

In the past, families were also prohibited from having children, including child servants who had been accompanying young masters since childhood, and maids who accompanied young ladies had to be paid.

Instead of just being responsible for eating and clothing as before, this may not make much money every month, and may even be less than the original actual benefits of eating and clothing.

However, the gradual formation of this concept of equality is exactly what Zhu Youxiao wants. desired result.

The concept of equality for everyone obviously cannot be formed in the minds of the people of Ming Dynasty in a short period of time, but step by step, this point can always be achieved in the end.

This time to rectify the slave status, a total of more than 40,000 hectares of farm property of the princes were confiscated to punish their eunuchs.

The Wangfu's fields are good irrigated land in the local area, so the Ministry of Agriculture has a large part of the land for immigrants or the establishment of farms.

For more than 700 castrates, more than 40,000 acres of land were fined.

This is equivalent to confiscation of 6,000 acres of land for one castration.

This is already an extremely serious punishment.

I believe that the palace will never dare to castrate volunteers on a large scale in the future.

The official team is gone.

Zhu Youxiao believes that a great country cannot be built by a group of slaves, whether they are physical slaves or psychological slaves.

That's why he tried his best to change the spirit of the people of Ming Dynasty, and of course he couldn't allow Han slaves to exist in Ming Dynasty.

Lin Danhan exchanged the Han people and farmland near the Great Wall for the pasture occupied by the Guards, but the Ming army did not return it within twenty miles along the railway.

Because a large number of cattle and sheep were lost in the war with the Ming army, Lin Danhan needed a large amount of food, so he could only ask the Mongolians to work on the railway construction site in exchange for food.

At this time, Lu Xiangsheng brought Wei Junru's mercenaries to Chahar.

Lin Danhan was unwilling to move his eyes when he looked at the neatly organized team in plain clothes, with their blazing guns and bayonets.

Lu Xiangsheng coughed before Lin Danhan reacted.

Lu Xiangsheng pointed at Wei Junru and said: "This is General Wei, the brigade commander of the mercenary army.

As we agreed, the name of the mercenary army will be designated by the Khan, and all command will be handled by General Wei, except for ammunition."

All supplies were the responsibility of the Khan, including salaries and combat captures."

Wei Junru stepped forward and bowed to Lin Danhan: "Please take care of me, Khan."

Lin Danhan laughed and said: "Okay, okay, okay.

I hope everyone can cooperate happily in the future.

As for the name, I think it's called Jebie Guards."

Zhebie means arrow in Mongolian, and it is also the name of Genghis Khan’s sharp archer.

Lu Xiangsheng said with a smile: “The right to name it lies entirely with the Great Khan.”

Lin Danhan said: "Are the salaries of the Jebie Guards paid directly to them?"

Lu Xiangsheng said: "No.

Their salary will be sent directly to Staff Li by the Khan.

They will open an account for each person in the Royal Bank of Ming Dynasty and then transfer the money to the account.

If the Khan has difficulty in cashing out some of his seizures, You can also contact him and he will help the Khan find a buyer in the Ming Dynasty. " Wei Junru said: "Bachelor, some of the basic equipment we need has been purchased from the Ordnance Bureau.

The payment for the goods will be deducted from our seizures.

We need to ask the bachelor to advance.

But the cigarettes needed by the soldiers still need to be accompanied by ammunition.

Just bring them together.”

Lu Xiangsheng smiled and said: "No problem, I will pay for it.

I will transport the cigarettes together with the ammunition and use them as military supplies.

You can take a look and see if you need anything.

I will negotiate with the Ordnance Bureau."

Wei Junru smiled and said: "Our army is armed to the teeth and no longer needs other equipment.

As for winter clothing, the ones here in Dahan are naturally better and warmer."

Lin Danhan smiled and said: "That's right, our Mongolian sheepskin robes are indeed the warmest, and we will put them on in autumn."

The mercenaries should now be called the Jebe Guards.

Each soldier has three sets of cotton clothes, a hooded raincoat, a pair of medium rain boots, a thin steel plate for the front and rear goggles, a helmet, a marching backpack, and a piece of soap. , three towels, a steel lunch box, a steel kettle, ten boxes of matches, a box of candles, and two hundred cigarettes.

A steel engineer shovel, a ten-foot-long rope, a first-aid kit containing bandages, tourniquets, five packs of marching powder, and five packs of hemostatic medicine.

In addition to the firecracker, there is also a fifty-round ammunition base, a cleaning rod, a wiping cloth, a gun butt, a pair of cotton gloves, a pair of goggles, and two masks.

Take a five-pound bag of dry food for marching with you, a simple sleeping bag, and a compass.

Such equipment can enable soldiers to persist for at least five days if they fall behind, and have the ability to cope with possible dangers.

Of course, it may not last a day in severe cold weather.

Lin Danhan had already made up his mind.

The first person to send troops was Mobei Sanhan.

Wei Junru requested that the Jebie Guards first adapt to the environment on the grassland, and proposed that a month should be devoted to training the Jebie Guards' equestrian skills.

Lin Danhan agreed and let the Mongolian knights take the Jebie Guards to practice on the grasslands every day.

These people used to ride horses in the Guards, but at that time they were just for transportation, and their riding skills were not very good.

Now they learn from the Mongols, and they will naturally make great progress.

Wei Junru supervises the training of his subordinates every day, records daily situations, helps the soldiers write letters, and understands their psychological conditions.

The medical officer sends letters back to ask for more anti-cold medicines, while the missionaries wander around In each camp, the gospel of the Lord was preached to the soldiers.

Everyone was busy with their own affairs, and the whole military camp was full of energy
