Wei Wuhou

Chapter 507 Newly Recruited Soldiers

In fact, after Wei Wuji's name spread, there were indeed a lot of young and strong people who came to join the army. In addition, Wei Wuji lowered some requirements appropriately, so the recruitment of 4000 people became very easy.

And only a few days ago, Zhou Yan sent a message to Wei Wuji, telling him that the recruitment work had ended, and according to him, the quality of the soldiers this time was not bad.

Now that Wei Wuji is a serious general, so now the conscription has become justifiable, so he doesn't need to hide it.

The Lingbei camp was actually not too late from Wei Wuji's barracks, so Wei Wuji didn't spend much time before rushing outside his barracks.

This place was very different from the last time he left. The bustling recruits outside the barracks were gone, but there were [-] more elite recruits in the barracks.

The military officials on duty at the gate of the camp naturally knew this famous son, and before Wei Wuji came to beat his horse, he ordered his soldiers to open the gate of the camp to welcome him.

No one else, Wei Wuji entered the barracks without the slightest delay, and on the school field not far away, there were recruits who had already put on military uniforms and were taught the simple military formation.

When these recruits saw Wei Wuji's cavalry, they could easily guess that it was the young master because they had seen it once before.

Although Wei Wuji came to see these recruits, he didn't go now, because he still had to ask Zhou Yan and Hu Hansan for specific matters.

After all, the soldiers here are all recruited by these two.

Outside the big tent, Zhou Yan and Hu Hansan, who had received the report, were already standing outside to greet them. After seeing Wei Wuji appearing, they all bowed down.

"Get up, come and take a look today!" Wei Wuji sat on the horse and said to the two people on the ground.

Zhou Yan and the two got up now, while Hu Hansan walked towards Wei Wuji's horse, and said as he walked, "Let me lead the horse for you!"

Seeing his appearance, Wei Wuji asked, "Could it be that you stabbed me?"

Hu Hansan's face froze immediately, and then he said: "Young master, that is what you are talking about. If you are taught by you, your subordinates will have a chance to make mistakes!"

At this time, Hu Hansan had also walked up to the horse and helped Wei Wuji lead the horse.

"I hope so!" Wei Wuji said, and got off his horse.

And Hu Hansan said he was leading the horse, but Wei Wuji himself was not on the horse, so he couldn't stand still, so he called a soldier to take the reins.

At this time, the northern border was still very cold, and it would definitely be a pain to stay outside, so he walked straight into the military tent, and asked as he walked, "How is the conscription going?"

The one closest to him was Zhou Yan, and upon seeing Wei Wuji's question, he replied, "Report to my lord, this matter has been settled, and a total of 4000 soldiers have been recruited!"

This point is completely based on the number given by Wei Wuji. With these 4000 men, plus the cavalry in Guihua City, he alone will have a full 1 cavalry.

Building cavalry is a costly and labor-intensive job, but it is not the case for Wei Wuji, after all, he can rob things, and the most scarce material, war horses, is not lacking.

"Not bad, well done!" Wei Wuji said in a deep voice, conscription is a time-consuming and labor-intensive task.

"In addition, the military supplies from the Lingbei Camp have arrived, but the weapons are all spears from the infantry, and there are only five hundred long swords!" Zhou Yan said worriedly.

He knew Wei Wuji's purpose in recruiting these people was to use them as cavalry, but the long sword, the main weapon of cavalry, was somewhat insufficient now.

Wei Wuji smiled and said: "There is no need to worry at this time, I will have my own way to deal with it!"

Wei Wuji had never claimed to be a general before, his words immediately attracted Zhou Yan's attention, and this easy-going guy thought about it for a while, and he understood what was going on.

So Zhou Yan said: "Congratulations, son, you have been promoted to the position of general!"

Apart from Zheng Dali, Hu Hansan was the only one who didn't understand. He secretly wondered why Zhou Yan was going crazy at this time, and would Old Hu not know if the young master was promoted?

Wei Wuji smiled, and then said: "You react quickly, you just came from the Lingbei camp, and you have been promoted for less than two hours!"

Seeing that Wei Wuji admitted it himself, Hu Hansan also ignored the previous doubts at this time, and immediately bowed down and said: "Congratulations, young master!"

Wei Wuji didn't look so good towards him anymore, he just said coldly: "Get up!"

Hu Hansan didn't take it seriously, and then stood up cautiously, with a flattering look on his face.

Several people then entered the military account and began to inquire about the details of the army's recruitment.

After some conversations, Wei Wuji was generally satisfied. Of course, this was mainly due to Zhou Yan. After all, Hu Hansan is just a rough man, and he can still maintain order.

"Now these 4000 people are temporarily divided into four captain's divisions, and some military officials will be assigned by Captain Hu to lead them to conduct various simple training!" Zhou Yan said.

Wei Wuji nodded, thinking a little bit of the new barracks in his previous life, but he will not add four new lieutenants as before, because he already has eight lieutenants.

Including the three from Zhang Xian, the one lieutenant's department left by Zhao Xi, and the four lieutenant's troops including Hu Hansan, they are fully organized into the cavalry of the first army, and he only needs to reorganize two lieutenant's departments.

The recruits here will all be disrupted from the organizational system, and then supplemented into the newly reorganized ten lieutenant departments.

"Simple training is enough. After the end of the year, there will be old soldiers teaching the battle formation!" Wei Wuji said slowly.

"Subordinates understand!" Zhou Yan said, in fact, he just wanted to train soldiers like he did back then, and now he has no conditions.

"In a few days, let's give them a vacation and let them go back for a year. After all... after serving in the army, it will be difficult to go home!" Wei Wuji said slowly.

Zhou Yan then said: "My lord is benevolent, my subordinates thank you for all the troops!"

Wei Wuji waved his hand, and then said: "However, before the holiday, I still have to meet with them and let them know who I'm working for!"

Zhou Yan was not easy to answer these words, he just said: "Then the subordinates will make arrangements now?"

Wei Wuji nodded and said, "Go, go right away!"

I have to say that Hu Hansan still has a way of training, after all, he was one of the best at the beginning, otherwise he would not have taken the position of captain.

In less than 10 minutes, he gathered the soldiers on the school field, ready to listen to Wei Wuji's instructions.

Some of the recruits had already met Wei Wuji, and some of them were even dismissed from the previous conscription, so when he first appeared on the stage, he heard someone shouting, "Young master is here."

This made Wei Wuji frown involuntarily, secretly thinking that this army record should be strengthened.

After some impassioned encouragement, when Wei Wuji agreed to let everyone go home for the New Year, the atmosphere reached its peak.

However, Wei Wuji watched the training in the next few days in person. After all, he needed to know more about these soldiers, whether they met his requirements or not.

And when December [-]th came, Wei Wuji gave each of the soldiers [-] yuan, saying that it was the military salary for this month, and then let them go home for the New Year.

Wei Wuji was not at all afraid that some people would not come after these people were released. After all, military law was the first lesson for these people. Being a deserter would cost their heads, not to mention that Wei Wuji was treated so well here.

This made the soldiers who had just joined the army very happy. They never thought that they could go back before the New Year, let alone receive the money.

And after putting the soldiers back, Wei Wuji himself set foot on the journey home, after all, he had been away from home for five days now.
