At the end of Ming Dynasty: I, Sun Kewang!Desperate comeback!

Chapter 63: The disciple of the king, the elected official in the west?

As long as the Jiaqian army works hard with Sun Guozhu, the future can be expected when Guangxi is built.

If the price of grain in Guangxi is seven qian, how much grain is enough for 60 taels of silver?

Of course, although the cake is to be painted, Sun Kewang, the former army general, will never refuse to eat a bite!
The soldiers are all human beings, and painting cakes can only be used for a while. Only by eating some first, can the cakes drawn by Sun Guozhu be made!

"In addition to the silver reward, I also want to give you rice!"

It is impossible for the soldiers of the former army to suffer losses, but the environment is different now.

In the past, there was a lot of food in Yunnan and Guizhou, but little gold and silver. Now it is easy to get gold and silver, but hard to grow food.

Not to mention other things, there was a lot of gold and silver captured in Guangxi and Gaolian Qionglei's four houses.

In addition to the liquidation of the notorious gentry in these areas, Sun Guozhi conquered the next province. Although the grain and grass seized were not much, there were more than 200 million taels of gold and silver.

In addition, the industry and commerce in Guangdong and Guangxi are developed, and Sun Guozhu now has an outlet to the sea to engage in sea trade. The annual income from gold and silver is much better than in Yunnan and Guizhou.

It is better to give more money for military pay and pensions in the future. Food will be in short supply in the coming year.

When the time comes to go north to Huguang, the Jiaqian Army will be engaged in tough battles. With so many casualties, how can Lord Sun get so much food and distribute dozens of dan to the families of the Jiaqian Army?
All in all, if it is like before, it is better to forget about the large-scale distribution of food, this is really impossible.

Of course, Sun Guozhu would never let the Jiaqian army and their families go hungry. What he couldn't do in Yunnan, when he arrived in Guangdong and Guangxi, if Sun Kewang could let the Jiaqian army go hungry, he would hang himself directly.

It's just that in the next year, he will do everything possible to gather millions of shi of grain, train recruits, go north to Huguang, and help the old troops, so he can't distribute too much grain.

"Thank you so much, Lord!" Hundreds of family members of the fallen soldiers kowtowed one by one to express gratitude.

Sun Kewang smiled, and then he said loudly: "In addition to the pension and Enmi, there are other rewards for the orphans of my brothers in the former army!"

"Any other rewards?" The soldiers of the front army looked at each other in blank dismay.

In their opinion, with 60 taels of silver and rice, half salary and one stone of food supply per year, they should be worth dying for. Didn't they expect that the king of the country would have other rewards?

"Soldiers! In addition to providing silver, enmi, and half-pay, so that the children of our former army can grow up, I also send the children of these loyal soldiers to read and write!"

As soon as these words came out, it was like a bolt from the blue!
"Master, we want to send our children to study..." The family members were all dumbfounded.

"Starting from today, I will build the Imperial Academy near the military camp!"

Sun Kewang was full of anger and said: "I drive the former army, the children of those who died in battle, disabled, and meritorious soldiers! Send them to the King's School to learn and read!"

"From now on, I, Sun Kewang, will be the teacher of these Xiying children! They will all be the disciples of me, the leader of the country!"

"In addition to letting scholars teach these children how to read and write, these disciples of my Sun Kewang can eat and drink for free in the Lord's Academy every noon! Every winter, I will personally distribute clothes to these disciples of my Sun Kewang from the severe cold!"

"When these children from Xiying grow up, they will be my Sun Kewang's disciples. I, the lord of the country, will naturally choose them first. I will never let him be the magistrate if he can be the magistrate! I will never let him be the magistrate! He is the county magistrate!"

"Even if they can't get the honors, I, Sun Kewang, will arrange for them to enter the camp and I will never let them have food and clothing worries!"

From now on, the children of Xiying officers and men will be given priority in recruitment, and Sun Kewang can be regarded as establishing a system for selecting officials in the West.

"Long live the lord!" A general said with his face flushed.

"Long live the king!" Thousands of soldiers in front of the army knelt on the ground and shouted with great excitement!

Sun Kewang, the lord of the country, is really like his own parents to these former soldiers!
Just ask, who would raise the orphans of soldiers who died in battle with his own hands, let them read and write, and make them princes and worship ministers like him!

In the future, when the king of the country is here, what should they fear?

Even if it is dead!Their orphans are raised by their grandson Kewang himself, who can read and write, and have no worries about food and clothing!
If they live up to expectations, their children can still be granted the title of marquis and prime minister as the disciples of the king!Guangzong Yaozu!
Even if their children fail to live up to expectations, they can still enter the camp and live and feed themselves for the rest of their lives under the protection of the king!

In this way, what do they have to be afraid of!

They are wild dogs in this troubled world!
Or in the Central Plains, or in Shaanxi and Gansu, or in Sichuan, or in Huguang, or in Yunnan and Guizhou.

He was treated as a real wild dog by corrupt officials and landlords!
It's Sun Kewang today!
Give them food!Clothes them!Let them live like a human being!
Let them stop running around like wild dogs trying to survive!

During the ten years in Yungui, the officers and soldiers of the front army were no longer afraid of the landlords and gentry, because these people were restrained by the camps!
Don't be afraid of corrupt officials anymore, because these people were skinned by Sun Kewang!

He no longer even feared the terrible Manchu Tatars, because the soldiers of the Qianqian Army, who were well-paid and well-paid, discovered that if the Manchu Tatars, who were full of crimes, were struck with a sword, they would have a scar as big as a bowl, just like themselves!
And now, on the land of Guangxi.

Not only did they not have to fear corrupt officials, landlords and gentry, but the great king also provided for the children of their meritorious men who were killed or maimed in battle.

Even if they die on the battlefield and can no longer make contributions, their children can become real people!There is no need to live the pig and dog life they experienced in the past!
That being the case, in this era when human lives are like grass, the grassroots of the past and the current elites have nothing to fear!

"The lord's kindness, I'm waiting for ten thousand deaths!" A low-level general of the former army with red eyes knelt down and kowtowed to Sun Kewang three times.

"The king's great kindness will never be repaid even if I die!"

In the entire school grounds, thousands of former army officers and soldiers knelt on the ground in unison, and the sound of kowtowing was like a mountain roaring and a tsunami!
Sun Kewang sighed with emotion when he saw this. In these troubled times, both the common people and the soldiers at the bottom have very simple requirements, that is, to eat well and wear warm clothes. Even if they do not die of hunger or cold, it is enough!
I just did the most basic things for the future generations, so that the soldiers in front of me will not be afraid of life and death, and support me from the bottom of my heart.

"Come on, all soldiers! From now on, the children of the disabled and meritorious soldiers will be the disciples of my king, Sun Kewang. As long as I, the king, are here, no one can bully them!"

Sun Kewang said solemnly: "You can fight on the battlefield with confidence. No matter what, I, Sun Kewang, will support your wife!"

I will support your wife. This sentence is actually what soldiers in the feudal era pursued most. As long as their wives and children can live like human beings, the soldiers' courage will be greatly increased and they will no longer be afraid of fighting!
