Chapter 188 Is It Okay?

The world is a collection of contradictions and compromises. It is true that Wang Rong looks down on Wang Hou. It does not mean that others do not have this ambition and do not seek opportunities.

I ate a turtle at the patriarch Wang Rong's place, and at the Langya Wang Clan's Liewu Hall, Wang Hou recovered some.

Liege Village where Liewu Hall is located, the entrance of the village is full of gongs and drums in the early morning, firecrackers are going off, and red flags are waving, and there are crowds of people!On weekdays, on the earthen platform where the old core figures of the family preached, tens of thousands of people from ten miles and eight towns, including men and women, old and young, gathered around here with great interest. His face was flushed, but he couldn't help but look at it endlessly.

After all, it came from later generations. Wang Hou knew the importance of publicity, and he didn't feel sorry for the cloth. The table used to cost one-third more, and a lot of propaganda slogans were written on the dyed red cloth in a fancy way.

Tian She Weng today!Seal the Hou in the future!
A passionate young man, serve the country, seal his wife and son!

Do you want to change your destiny?Come to the barracks!

Our life is very bitter, but we are full of hope!
On the stage, that is the source of the blushing pretty faces that those little girls saw. They picked handsome guys who fit the aesthetics of this era among their own soldiers. One by one, strong men with fleshy faces and bushy beards came to the stage. As in fitness performances in later generations, the clothes and trousers are all taken off, and the loincloth is worn to bulge there, and the bronzed skin is smeared with oil, and the chest muscles, biceps and thigh muscles are all bulging out brightly.

This era is not like the yin and yang imbalance in the later generations, advocating all kinds of small fresh meat, and even hard-core sportsmen are not ranked. Rough men are the public's aesthetics. Twelve big men stand there, not to mention Huaichun girls, even men are. Followed by looking straight jealous.

However, with so much publicity under the hood, Wang Hou even arranged for a counterproductive person to throw cold water on him. He was also tall and strong, with arms almost as thick as thighs, with a full face and nostrils.

"Want to sign up to join the army? Consider yourself first! Do you know what kind of life I live?"

"Get up in the morning and go cross-country for twenty miles! Then you can have breakfast! As long as you don't have any missions, you can practice queue in the morning and assassination and fighting in the afternoon to build your muscles! I have three meals a day, three steamed buns and a big piece of meat. Two eggs, meat and vegetables! But I train for five hours a day, and if I fail to meet the training requirements, I will be punished! Squatting, pumping the board! Stretch! The sweat flowing down under the hot sun can soak the clothes. From time to time, there will be emergency gatherings for additional training! The physique and achievements I have today are all due to sweat!"

"Follow our king Shijun, nothing to say, his old man has a stutter, and he will never let his subordinates starve! From the envoy, the pacification of the bandits, the suppression of the bandits, and the Guandu battle against Yuan's bandits, I successively beheaded the three bandits, the bandits, and the soldiers, and rewarded them all." Nine bolts of cloth, thirty stones of grain, and three hundred guan! The family has land, cattle, and daughter-in-law! But Lao Tzu marched forward bravely on the battlefield, and if Wang Shijun didn’t retreat, we would rush to death! If you want to eat this meal, you have Is this qualified?"

The simple words portrayed the boring military camp environment as true. Indeed, the harsh military camp life frightened many people away, but these provocative words aroused the desire and passion of more members of the Langya Wang clan. In the eyes, many people's cheeks were bulging with anger.

"You bastard from the Central Plains can do it, I'm afraid of being a good guy from Shandong!"

"Sign up there? Grandpa joined the army and taught you how to be a man!"

"That's it! You can participate after receiving the cloth slip. From here, run to Xiajiazhuang and get another cloth slip to be eligible to join the army!"

Amidst the yelling, the passionate young man who was unwilling to plant the land for the rest of his life hurriedly arrived at the entrance of the village, took the cloth strips, and immediately ran away like Zhuang Dong.

"Dong Weng, why are you making such a fuss? If you come and take one, you can have at least [-] soldiers. If you pick and choose like this, you can have [-] soldiers!"

"I'm satisfied with two thousand! In my opinion, it's not about the number of soldiers, but the quality. On the battlefield, as long as the organization is strict, the command is smooth, and the morale is high, 5000 people are enough to defeat [-] troops with insufficient training and low morale! I am an elite soldier!"

Listening to Jia Xu's complaints and puffing up his chest, Wang Hou hummed nonchalantly, don't say that, Jia Xu was thoughtful when he said that, but just when Wang Hou became taller in Jia Dushi's eyes However, Wang Hou grinned again, and murmured something hurriedly in his ear.

"Besides, Wang Yu gave me 1 shi of grain and recruited [-] people. That's enough to feed me for two months, or half a month. Can I afford it?"

Ok!This is still the familiar Boss Wang!Seeing Wang Hou sourly still muttering stingily, Jia Xu couldn't help grinning again.

…………

After tossing and tossing for three days in a row, it was really like what Wang Hou said. He didn't even recruit 2000 people, and he recruited about [-] people. He didn't recruit. Wang Hou designed this recruitment condition to be too harsh. It seems that running is very simple. Yes, but it takes ten kilometers to run from Liewutang to Xiajiazhuang and back. The marathon is about the same distance, and you are required to keep running. This filters out not only those who are physically weak, but also those who are weak in will. They were eliminated. After all, Wang Hou's training of troops was called recruits' three-month devil training. If he didn't have a firm will, he might run away in three days.

But this time, recruiting soldiers is actually secondary, and asking for some supplies is the main thing. From Wang Yu of Liewu Hall, Wang Xu of Xianwen Hall and several Langya Wang clans, Wang Hou got a total of 100 shi of military rations. There are also more than [-] bullock carts, and each of these newly recruited sergeants is wearing armor, half of which is equipped with spears, and the other half is equipped with ring-headed knives and wooden shields. This equipment is comparable to the heavy armored infantry under Wang Hou's command. It's scum, but it's enough to bring this skill.

Also, I received [-] pieces of cloth and [-] guan in money. After all, it is feasible to raise an army without money?
Of course, as a price, Wang Hou promised to send out a county magistrate of Zhuangwu, a county magistrate of Buqi, five school lieutenants, and a lot of scattered officials.

It is said that aristocratic and wealthy families are the cancer of society in this era, but when it comes time to use them, they find that there is no way to recruit them, because there are actually very few talented scholars like Jia Xu, and the real knowledge is still in the hands of wealthy and aristocratic families, just like Lang Yaba. Tang, Tangtang has a private school of his own ethnicity, but only the children of his own clan are eligible for admission, and the only way to spread knowledge is bamboo slips, which is too few compared to books!

During this trip, Wang Hou still had high expectations for the Langya Wang family. He thought that he could get [-] shi for military rations and [-] shi for cloth, but he could get less than a third of them. It is not satisfactory!

After staying in Yangdu for a few more days, I sorted out the army a little bit, selected more than 100 people from the previous episodes as instructors, and placed them among the newly recruited 800 people. The lieutenant was arranged in his old army, and with the things he got, Wang Hou bid farewell to the patriarch Wang Rong angrily, and then finally embarked on his way back north.

"Wang Laogui! Wang Laogou! The penny-pinching Grandet! Still want to wait for Lao Tzu to get rich and put people under Lao Tzu's hands? Even if I give it to the bandits under Zang Ba's hands, I won't give it to you! Still want to pretend to be an official? Dreaming!"

Dissatisfied, while dangling on the horse, Wang Hou was acting like a cheapskate, the little book remembered Wang Rong's faults, but this time, Jia Xu was not in the mood to talk to him, while dangling on the horse, while He also seemed preoccupied.

But at this moment, on the official road behind, suddenly a few cavalrymen swung their whips, but rushed over from behind.

"Wang Zhoumu! Please wait!!!"

Hearing the voice and turning around, Wang Hou was astonished, but on Jia Xu's face, there was a sinister smile as if the plot had succeeded.

"Zhuge..., Young Master! Why are you calling me?"
