golden scales

Some people nearby were in a daze, and some people were afraid of being beaten again, regardless of whether Sanqi 21 had already walked past Xiao Tugeng's hand.As long as there are two or three people standing side by side, it will look much more orderly in this chaotic scene.Everyone was able to determine their own positions and assembled into three square formations with twenty horizontal lines and ten vertical lines.

Zhou Jing glanced at the courageous Xiao Tugeng, and was about to say something when he suddenly heard the sound of his clothes behind him. Looking back, it turned out that the crown prince had arrived.

Zhu Cihong walked all the way, looked at several camps, but they were still noisy, with a gloomy face, and didn't say much.When I came to the penultimate camp, my eyes suddenly lit up, and I didn't expect that they were already lined up.Although he didn't know why Zhou Jing was here, it was always good to gather people together.

"Although I didn't stand up straight, it was pretty good." Zhu Cihong walked to Zhou Jing: "There are 600 people here?"

"Yes, Your Highness." Zhou Jing didn't dare to say more, and responded dryly.

Zhu Cilang glanced at the queue, feeling that the phalanx was a bit like a circle, and the previous sense of surprise gradually dissipated.However, he still remembered the voice "I am the team leader" he heard, and walked towards Xiao Tugeng, who was ranked first.

Xiao Tugeng bowed his head, not daring to meet the prince's eyes.

"Did you call it just now?" the prince asked.

"Back to the prince, it was the villain who shouted." Xiao Tugeng found that his voice was hoarse and trembling, and his legs were trembling unceasingly.

"That's right." Zhu Cihong said with a smile: "Out of the 2000 people, if there is one courageous person like you, you can give Song Hongye a reward."

Facing the prince's praise, Xiao Tugeng didn't know how to reply, but lowered his head even lower.

"What did you do before?" Zhu Cihong asked.

"Back to the prince, the villain used to be a miner." Xiao Tugeng thought for a while, and added: "It's the head of the well."

"The head of the well?"

"Yes!" Xiao Tugeng talked about his major, and immediately became more confident, his voice stopped trembling, and his legs didn't tremble, and he explained: "It's the leaders in the mine who dig holes, prevent landslides, and search for ore veins. "

"That's right, he's still a talent." Zhu Cihong nodded, and asked again, "Is it a military household?"

"No, it's not." Xiao Tugeng quickly explained: "When competing with others for mines in the past, they had to be lined up before they could fight, so I know some rules."

Qi Jiguang really had a good eye in selecting people, these miners basically have a military foundation.After hearing this, Zhu Cihong didn't know whether to be lucky or regretful, because Daming's mineral deposits were clearly state-owned, but now the state basically does not receive mining taxes, and not only some big households occupy state-owned assets, but also so blatantly fight privately.

"What's your name?" Zhu Cihong asked.

"Xiao Tugeng!" Qian Jingtou reported loudly: "One eight two three!"

Zhu Cihong couldn't help laughing when he heard this: "Is the number recorder a means of the mine?"

"No..." Xiao Tugeng raised his head, and suddenly found that the prince's skin was so white and delicate that his tongue almost got stuck.He said: "Only mules and carts are numbered in the mine, so I'm afraid I'll lose them."

"I'm not afraid of losing you." Zhu Cihong imitated Xiao Tugeng's Hebei accent: "This is your recruit number, which is convenient for counting, so that you can pay your salary and count your merits. In the future, your names and official positions will be engraved."

In the lower society of the Ming Dynasty, the rate of duplication of names was ridiculously high.Names such as Shuisheng, Tugen, Agou, Mouer... abound.The only way is to number them and ensure that each person has a unique code, so as to ensure that there will be no problems with the issuance, execution, and feedback of orders.

Even in companies 500 years later, employee numbers are still very important.Although some people may not know their employee number after working for more than ten years, it cannot be ignored in the human resources and financial departments - the role of this number can save them a lot of work.

Zhu Cihong deliberately put some costs on this issue, so as to lay a good foundation for future army construction.

And from another perspective, if the military emphasizes numbering, it can create a greater sense of belonging and identity.

Zhu Cihong patted Xiao Tugeng's shoulder, and said: "Tomorrow will be the official practice, but I can tell you one thing in advance, in our army, everyone must hold their heads up, their chests down, and their eyes level. People who can't do it , will be punished.”

"The villain understands!" Xiao Tugeng tried to raise his head, but as soon as his eyes touched the big red robe on Zhu Cihong's body, it immediately melted into water like ice encountering a flame.

Zhu Cihong smiled, and cast his gaze on the person next to Xiao Tugeng.

"Why are you so thin?" Zhu Cihong frowned, looking at the man who looked like a reed stick.

"Back, back to the prince..." The man was trembling, "If I can run, I will be taken in."

Zhu Cihong nodded slightly, and left without saying anything.He quickly finished looking at the last camp, a total of 2000 people, no more and no less, obviously Song Hongye wanted to get a round number.Some of these people seem to be filling the numbers, but it does not rule out that they can develop dark horses in the future.

Among the 2000 people, Xiao Tugeng was the only one who left an impression on Zhu Cihong.Think about it, it is no different from panning for gold, there is always a little bit of gold hidden in a pile of gravel.It would be nice to have one like this.

After Zhu Cihong left, Zhou Jing finally breathed a sigh of relief.The prince didn't ask him why he appeared here at all, so he naturally didn't know that a recruit was beaten to death on the first day of his arrival.

Before physically punishing the two recruits who robbed the bed, a big man general started a little tricky and hit him on the back of the head with a stick, killing him directly.

It's ridiculous that the idiot still wants to scare the chickens to scare the monkeys, but he doesn't know that the prince values ​​these newly recruited soldiers far more than the big Han general who can only arrange battles!

Don't think that these people are not as good as Jin Yiwei, but which guard of the East Palace has talked face-to-face with the prince?In other words, His Highness the Crown Prince doesn't care about you guys at all!

Thinking of this, Zhou Jing couldn't help feeling a little sad, and even more puzzled, why did the prince pay attention to these bastards who didn't even know the rules?

"General Zhou, what are you going to announce?" A sinister voice suddenly sounded from behind Zhou Jing.

"Eunuch Tian," Zhou Jing turned around, "Why do you always come here?"

Tian Cunshan pointed to the young eunuchs beside him, and said, "His Royal Highness wants Zhongjuan to be the instructor, and he will be dispatched to the banner. These are all from this side."

"Sent to the flag?" Zhou Jing thought that Tian Cunshan didn't understand the military system, and misunderstood what the prince meant.

The crown prince trained the guards of the East Palace this time, using Qi Wuyi's military system.The first battalion is divided into left, middle and right divisions, one part is the second division, the first division is under the jurisdiction of the second bureau, the bureau is divided into three banners, and the banner is divided into three teams.A team is two five, a total of ten people.If the trainer is to be sent to the banner, that is to send a supervisor for every 30 people.The whole army needs [-] or [-] superintendents... This has become a guard under the jurisdiction of the Yumajian!
