At this time, Lu Hanqiang, who was outside Yanmen Pass, was "recruiting" for the prince.
Since the founding of Hongwu in the Ming Dynasty, the implementation of horse administration, forced Shandong, Henan, North Zhili, Shaanxi, Shanxi and other provinces of the people to raise horses for the imperial court, the implementation of horse politics for the Ming Dynasty to provide a large number of war horses, but at the same time to the horse households brought a deep disaster, many horse households because of horse breeding and bankruptcy.
Because the children of the horse household have been in contact with horses since childhood, most of them are skilled in bow horses, and the people in the northwest are fierce and fierce, so it is a matter of course that they have become horse thieves and horse bandits from broken horse households, and later, the ingredients of horse thieves have slowly become complicated.
And near Yanmen Pass, there are many such "horse households" who are skilled in bow horses.
Lu Hanqiang set his sights on these horse thieves and recruited them into the army, not only to stabilize the place, but also to save their own training time, this is the middle of September, according to the intelligence, Huang Taiji has begun to prepare, time waits for no one.
Lu Hanqiang's recruitment notice on the high price code is eye-catching, regardless of the origin, with a war horse to run, the war horse each fifteen taels of silver, with weapons and bows and arrows, according to the quality of the money, once the qualified person is selected, immediately enter the Beijing camp, become the son of the prince of the country, the monthly salary is five taels of silver, the death has a bereavement pension of twenty taels, and the wounded have comforted ten taels of silver.
As soon as this proclamation came out, it immediately caused a sensation inside and outside Yanmen, this is a great opportunity to wash the white body, the horse thief shook it, and it became the forbidden army of Beijing, which was heaven and earth, so every day there were countless "horse households" riding war horses, with weapons to recruit them, and some simply came with the whole team, and at first glance the horse thieves wanted to wash their identities.
Lu Hanqiang doesn't care about these, who comes, they all smile for a while, good people, you are a big drop of good people.
As a result, now Yanmen has simply become a big socialist gathering, people come and go every day, and there are constantly mutual discovery of enemies, I see that you are not pleasing to the eye, and if you don't agree with each other, in short, you will do it by copying knives, and there are murder cases almost every day.
Seeing such a situation, Lu Hanqiang pinched his chin all day long, smiled and looked at it, almost not rectifying it, and it almost became a paradise for avengers.
Let the deputy guard of Yanmen, who nominally accompanies the prince, worry all day long.
"Kill it, anyway, the origins of these people may not be what they are, and if they kill more, it will be beneficial to local security."
Lu Hanqiang commented lightly: "This has another advantage, that is, when we are selected, we only need to pay attention to those who are brave and ruthless, and the rest will be." ” Lu Hanqiang's method of choosing cavalry is very simple, within the age range, the first requirement is to be able to fly next to the galloping war horse.
The second requirement is to be able to jump off a running war horse without falling, and the third is to shoot a long arrow with a big bow on a war horse, of course, it is not required to be able to hit the bull's eye, as long as the general direction is right, and then it is to be able to pick up a big knife with both legs between the legs on the horse.
Such conditions seem simple, but in fact they are already harsh, but with the basis of the above audition, and under the temptation of a strong military salary, the three thousand cavalry of the prince also let him complete the selection in a few days.
Three thousand cavalry, according to Lu Hanqiang's establishment, or a squadron brigade, completely abandon the Ming Dynasty's dizzying establishment title, in Lu Hanqiang's view, in the ever-changing battlefield, the simplest establishment, the simplest title, can be the most effective communication, in order to adapt to the ever-changing battlefield changes.
And the leader of each team is all the original personal soldiers, the prince is of course the commander of this team, and the original personal soldier is called Da Lang, of course, he is the actual deputy of this team.
With 3,000 cavalry in hand, they immediately dispersed the superfluous people, etc., so the outside of Yanmen Pass became quiet again, which made the deputy general feel relieved, but as he walked inside and out, he had to give birth to the feeling of eating meat with Lu Hanqiang, because the food in Lu Hanqiang's military camp was outrageously high compared to the Yanmen defenders.
So the deputy general, who was well fed and drunk in the big tent, couldn't help but ask with a bitter face: "Lord Lu, is the salary in the Beijing camp so high, then why don't you allocate some to us border soldiers, even if those soldiers can barely eat." ” Lu Hanqiang spread his hands and said helplessly: "This matter is a matter of the imperial court, not my business, but the three thousand personal soldiers of the prince did not spend the money of the imperial court, nor the money of the prince, in fact, they spent my money." ” The deputy general was stunned for a while and then remained silent, yes, now Man Daming knows that Lu Hanqiang has the means, he is a fortune boy, and this kind of treatment can only be taken by Lu Hanqiang.
When Lu Hanqiang came to the open field outside the camp, there were already people shouting horses and neighing, and swords and swords shouted to the sky.
The little fat man rode on his big black, once again revealing his nature as a gatekeeper, constantly shouting loudly at those warriors who were not well trained; Run, accelerate, accelerate.
The people are full, the horses are full, and so many delicious foods are eaten in the dog's stomach, right?
” Turned around and saw an unpleasant loud scolding: "That you still have you, put your body down, stunned and waiting for the arrow, and you, take care of the brothers on the left and right, what kind of hero is unhappy to die in the running so fast, and a few of you, you see that your captain has rushed out of twenty or thirty steps, and he is still grinding there, is it because he is afraid of death, and there are you, you are blind and the enemy is in the south, what are you going to do in the west, do you want to be a deserter, supervise the war team, catch him back for me and cut him down."
What is a horse that does not obey the command, then what do you do to eat, you can't even control the horse, and what kind of cavalry go home happily to pick up the child.
And you guys.
Keep the horse fast, keep the formation, give me a charge. ” For those who are unruly with their necks, the little fat man directly rushes over with his double hangings and beats him up, and the management method is rough and direct.
For these original horse bandits and horse households, they can only and can only speak with their fists, and only by coercing and seducing can they completely make these guys surrender.
Under the leadership of Little Fat Man and his well-trained family, the guys who were originally only chaotic and charging began to slowly adapt to the overall cooperation, and slowly began to understand discipline and organization.
In fact, the difference between a soldier and a bandit lies not in the purpose and the so-called justice, but in discipline.
This is Lu Hanqiang's definition, I don't care what your background is, as long as you follow my discipline, you are my soldier. t1706231537:
