Late Tang

Chapter 80

Thanks again (Scarecrow) brother for the reward, thank you!The second volume starts today, please recommend tickets!

Finally having a piece of land of his own, Li Jing's footsteps were much lighter on the way back to the camp.When he first came to this world, he didn't expect to go so far, and he paid a great price for it, and even almost lost his life.Although he was fortunate enough to be released from prison with amnesty that time, he was exempted from his plan to escape halfway.And after that, he finally stumbled all the way to the present, and now he also has a certain identity and money.

I no longer have to worry about the family not having enough to eat every day, and there is a day without tomorrow.However, Li Jing is not just an ordinary Tang citizen.He also knew something farther and farther in his heart. The great uprising at the end of the Tang Dynasty was coming, and even the emperor's two capitals would be unsafe to escape.Under the overturned nest, there are no eggs?The last time he happened to meet the new emperor enthroned and amnesty and escaped from prison, how could he protect himself and his family as a commoner in the future?

In the coming catastrophe, the only way to have your own territory is to have your own armed forces.

No matter whether he is going to Qingzhou or staying in Dengzhou, it is too difficult for Li Jing to get ahead. Although going to Salmonella Island is full of hardships, the sky will not give him a piece of foundation for nothing.With a relatively independent territory like Salmon Island and three hundred subordinates, he can use this to form his initial force.

In the barracks in Zuo Yidu, Lin Wei, Lin Wu, Wang Zhong, Zhang Hong and others were all standing in front of the barracks gate with their arms folded, waiting for Li Jing to come back.Ever since Li Jing told Song Wen that they killed Feng Yanqing, everyone's hearts have been hanging high.Yesterday they followed Li Jing and Cui Yunqing to the Song Mansion for a banquet, thinking that Song Wen was going to have a showdown.Unexpectedly, in the end, he didn't even mention this matter.

A few people from far away saw Li Jing coming on horseback, and Wang Zhong, who was impatient, ran over first, grabbed Li Jing's clothes and said, "What did the surname Song ask you to say?"

"Good thing!" Li Jing replied with a smile, then shut his mouth tightly and refused to say another word, just jumped off the horse and walked straight to his tent, making Wang Zhong jump so anxiously, but Lin Weihe Seeing Li Jing like this, Zhang Hong and the others guessed that things must be going well, otherwise Li Jing wouldn't have such an expression.

After entering the tent, Li Jing sat down, put his hands on the table in front of him, and tapped the table lightly, but he was not in a hurry to speak.

Sitting on the side, Wang Zhong was anxious after all, and said: "San Lang, don't be a fool, what is the situation?"

"Good thing." Li Jing smiled lightly.In fact, all the way back to now, Li Jing's silence was not because he wanted to show off, but because he had been planning to arrange other officers under his command after he went to Shamen Town in his mind.Shamen Township was originally just a garrison, with a total of only 50 people.The Shang Shuzhu is also an official position of the eighth rank. In addition to the Shuzhu, there is also a Deputy Shuzhu, a Yuhou, a Shuzuo, two Shushi, and the remaining three gang leaders.

Although Shamen Town is only a middle town, it has many organic officers.According to the establishment, in the town of 300 people, there is a general of the middle town of the seventh rank, a deputy general of Zhongzhen from the seventh rank, a general Yuhou from the seventh rank, and a soldier Cao Joining the Army of the ninth rank.In addition, there is also one coach from the eighth rank, and four coaches from the ninth rank on riding, bow and arrow, spear and stick, and sword and shield.Then there are the first three generals from the eighth rank, the first three lieutenant generals from the eighth rank, and the three generals Yuhou from the eighth rank.And six rank-ninth team leaders, six vice-team leaders from the ninth rank, and six Yuhou from the ninth rank.In addition, there is one recorder from the ninth rank, one soldier Cao Zuo, four Shi, one Cangdu, and two Shi.There are so many ranks in Shamen Township, there are as many as 45 ranks.

Even if Li Jing was promoted by ten from the original Shamen Garrison to serve as officers, there are still more than 30 positions.

Song Wen had already promised himself that for the officers in Shamen Town, he could draw up a list and submit it to him for approval to be transferred.It is said that a man cannot be without power for a day, and now Li Jing can be regarded as having "power" in his hands.But when it was time to execute the order, I also felt a little headache.Until now, he has only thought of a few more important positions.For example, he planned to appoint Lin Wei as the deputy general of the town, Wang Zhong as the general of Yuhou, and Zhang Hong as the military counselor.

After thinking about it for a long time, my head is still in a mess.Seeing that everyone was a little impatient at this time, he smiled and said: "It is indeed a good thing. Feng Yanqing's obstruction has been completely over. The teacher has agreed to accept Song Jieshuai's invitation yesterday, and will go there soon Qingzhou took over the post of Sima and Yingtian Deputy Ambassador of the Jiedu Marching Army. After the teacher left, the governor of Dengzhou would be replaced by Song Wen. I can't let go of my brothers, so I propose to stay."

"Song Wen came to me today because of this. Song Wen just offered me a position, and I have already accepted it. And not only did I accept it myself, but I also asked him to transfer you all with me."

Wang Zhong, Lin Wu and the others were a little surprised, but Lin Wei remained expressionless, and he pondered, "What position is it?"

"The town general of Shamen Town!"

"Where is the town of Salmonella? I only heard that there is a Salmonella Island in the Daxie Islands, on which is the Salmonella Garrison under the Daxie Village. You are not talking about this place, right? It is the territory of the frontier army." Lin Wei's expression changed, and he reminded with some worry.

In today's world, generally speaking, there are two types of soldiers and horses, one is the Imperial Court's Shence Army, and the other is Fanzhen soldiers.However, there are also several kinds of soldiers in the feudal towns. First of all, the Yajun stationed in the city where the Jiedushi shogunate is located are generally the strongest soldiers and horses in the feudal towns.In addition to the yamen soldiers, there is the frontier town army, also known as the garrison soldiers.Including foreign troops, guards, towns, guards, forts, forts, battalions, gates, beacon shops, etc. outside the station of Jieshuai Mansion are all garrisons.Then there is a third type of Zhizhou soldiers, such as the state soldiers under Han Zhong, the prison envoy of Dengzhou City, are of this type, and they all belong directly to the governor.The fourth type of soldiers in feudal towns are county town soldiers, and county town soldiers are soldiers stationed in military towns.For example, Chishan Town is the county soldiers, but they do not belong to the county magistrate, and the county magistrate cannot command the troops. , It has long been served by the cronies of the Jiedushi, or it is simply a small town.

Ya soldiers, frontier garrison soldiers, Zhizhou soldiers, and county town soldiers, these are the four types of soldiers and horses under the feudal towns. In addition to these four types, some feudal town government soldiers are arrogant, and the Jiedushi will also form a personal army. Against the tooth soldiers.In addition, sometimes the local people will be called for training and form a united army.

In today's Ziqing Town, there are nearly 3000 soldiers and horses in total, of which [-] are tooth soldiers, garrison soldiers, branch state soldiers, county town soldiers, and another [-] united soldiers, and [-] people Jiedu pro-soldiers.Among the six types of soldiers and horses in Ziqing Town, the tooth soldiers stationed in Qingzhou and nearby are the most arrogant, and the Jiedu soldiers are the most well-paid and well-paid. In addition, the Zhizhou soldiers and county town soldiers are stationed in the prefectural capital and the counties. In the military town, the conditions are not bad.

To be honest, apart from the united soldiers who were not considered formal soldiers, the most miserable, tiring and least willing to be soldiers were the garrison soldiers.The garrisons are stationed on the border, often in remote places with no one.It takes six years for the garrison to take one round, and sometimes it will be postponed again and again after the expiration. A few years ago, the Pang Xun Rebellion was basically because the Xuzhou garrison soldiers stationed in Guilin were postponed several times in a row. Instead, they fought all the way back to Xuzhou, sweeping half of the southeast.

The garrison soldiers had the worst equipment, the least food and wages, the harshest conditions, and the longest garrison period. Basically, being a garrison soldier was the same as being exiled.Therefore, Lin Wei couldn't help but change his face when he heard Li Jing say that his new position was in the Shamen, when he was in the army.

"Shamen Town is the original Shamen Garrison, but now it has been upgraded to Shamen Town, with 50 soldiers belonging to Zhongzhen. Song Du Yuhou has promised me that in addition to the original 250 people of Salmon Garrison, the remaining [-] people can be sent by us. He recruited himself, and he also promised me that all the officers in Shamen Town can be drafted by us. I have already asked him to come over all of you, brothers, we will have our own territory soon."

"You mean, although you were appointed as the general of Shamen Township, there are only 50 people under your command?" Lin Wei continued to ask.

"Songdu Yuhou also promised me to give me a hundred brothers from Zuoyidu, but the premise is that they will follow voluntarily. But you don't have to worry about this, I still have a sum of money in my hand, as long as we take out some Come and pay for the brothers who voluntarily go, and declare that there will be military pay every month in the future, and they will definitely be willing to go." These are all Li Jing's thoughts along the way, although the garrison is too hard, the people are not willing to be.But after the famine this year, it is now the time of the famine, and the ten thousand bolts of silk in his hand are not used up. As long as he is willing to take some out to pay for those who are willing to go, and explain that there will be food on a monthly basis, left and right The unity soldiers in Yidu are definitely willing to go with them.

"I plan to ask Brother Lin to serve as the deputy general of Qipin Town, Third Brother Wang to serve as Marquis Yu, the general of the seventh rank, and Marquis Zhang Yu to serve as the military counselor of the ninth rank. Shamen Town has 300 people under its jurisdiction, combining the three capitals. I will also be the first general from the left, second brother Lin will be the second general from the left, third brother Wang will also be the third general from the left, and brother Lin will also be the coach. We will discuss other positions at that time, how about it?"

Lin Wei was still a little hesitant. He persuaded Li Jing: "You should think about it. Once you agree to this matter, you will have to stay at least six years once you go to Salmon Island. I still think that although Salmon Town is better than the current united soldiers The head is strong, but you still have to be cautious. In order to get promoted, it is not worthwhile to go to the garrison."

Li Jing shook his head, and said to several people: "Brother Lin misunderstood me, I didn't want to get promoted. Wouldn't it be better for me to go to Qingzhou with my family teacher if I want to get promoted, even if I stay with Songdu Yuhou, with the present The relationship between the family teacher and Yuhou, the capital of the Song Dynasty, is better than going to Salmon Island. But have you noticed that the current world is becoming more and more chaotic every day. In today's world, I think the only way to be successful is to have a piece of land of your own. It’s the most real. When I go to Salmonella Island, I’m not looking for an official position. What I value is that Salmonella Island is a territory that we can operate. With this territory, and our brothers, in this turbulent time, can it be Isn't there a lot to do?"

Lin Wei, Lin Wu, Wang Zhong, and Zhang Hong were all a little surprised by Li Jing's words, and they were deeply shocked after being surprised.Before them, no one thought that Li Jing would think so far and so deeply.Several people were thoughtful, and after a long time, Lin Wei was the first to reach out and hold Li Jing's palm, and said with a solemn expression, "Okay, brother is one of them."

"Count me in too."

"Count me."

"Count me in!"
