Chapter 1386 List
When we got home, it was almost Hai time, and the family set up a banquet and set up lanterns in the backyard, waiting for Shen Hao to come back for the festival.
The Blue Moon Festival in the past two years has been too deserted in Shen's mansion, this year no matter what, they have to wait for Shen Hao to come back to have a lively and lively time together. For this reason, Chu Linxiang and Yu Qiao rehearsed singing and dancing more than half a month in advance. Yu Qiao played the piano, Chu Linxiang sang, and three fox girls accompanied the dance. Although Shen Hao was the only one in the audience, there was constant laughter, and the family grabbed the tail of the festive season and kept making noise until late at night before falling asleep.
On the second day, there were supposed to be two more days to rest, but Shen Hao chose to go on a business trip. He continued to deal with the backlog of various official duties in the past two years in the office, and kept a real-time report on the current progress of the black flag camps in various places. control.
If the current difficult situation in the country can be reversed within one year, then Shen Hao can earn a lot of qualifications, and it will be of great benefit to him to take over as the commander of Xuan Qingwei in the future.
And just as Shen Hao was so busy day by day, the voice of the Black Flag Camp in the country gradually became louder and louder.
By the end of April, the Black Flag Camp had acquired nearly 200 low-level low-level sects from Wanjuan Shushan and Mingshan Sect, almost including nearly 80% of low-level low-level small sects in the sect circle. And the number of monks who have signed an employment agreement with the Black Flag Camp has also increased from the initial 1,300 to about 3,500, of which monks from the late Qi Refining Realm to the early God Gathering Realm accounted for more than half.
Moreover, as so many low-level sects have reached employment with the Black Flag Camp, the attention of some casual cultivators with mediocre cultivation and talent has been drawn back from the sect, and finally flowed into the Black Flag Camp, and this number is not enough. Less than a thousand, and even slowly increasing.
From the beginning of the establishment of the Black Flag Battalion to the present, when did so many monks live in the battle formation? In the past, more than 70% of a small banner battalion were ordinary soldiers, but now half of the monks and soldiers are on one side. This improvement in the overall combat effectiveness of the Black Banner Battalion can be said to be visible to the naked eye.
But even though the Black Flag Battalion is now steadily fighting back the lines of defense released before slowly recovering, relying on the big city, and starting to squeeze the room for the activities of the evil monks, the evil monks did not let it go, but took a fierce counterattack, and the see-saw between the two sides was quite fierce .
However, today's Black Flag Battalion does not need to take care of the vast defense line as it did at the beginning of the chaos, causing the loopholes to be pierced one after another. Now most of the defense lines are still cruising and guarding by the four front armies. Soaring, facing the counterattack of the evil monks, he didn't panic at all. .
Although there were not a few soldiers killed in battle, the number of evil spirits and evil monks who were also beheaded was also eye-catching. A new batch of heads of evil monks will be hung on the gates of major cities every three days to show the public, and the old ones will not even have time to stink after throwing away the dog feeders.
And the soldiers who died in battle were not as silent as before. They just posted a list inside the Black Flag Battalion and paid for them. Instead, under Shen Hao's instruction, the names, native places, and military exploits of the fallen soldiers were listed and posted on the side of the city gate, in contrast to the heads hanging on the city gate.
In the past, I always heard how many thieves were beheaded, how many officers and soldiers and Xuan Qingwei sacrificed, and they were all counted together. When I passed through the gate of the city, I just looked at the head hanging from the gate and cursed a few words.
But now, every time I look up to see the heads of those thieves on the city gate, and then look at the list of dead soldiers posted on the side, the vivid names seem to be like my neighbors, but now they are all gone.
Who did it?
Isn't it just those evil monks who are like rats and bugs! Pooh!
A feeling of hatred seems to grow stronger in the hearts of everyone who sees or listens to others' explanations.
People's hearts are made of flesh, and no one is born with a heart of stone. This is especially true for the common people at the bottom. They don't ask for much, but a stable environment and a livelihood to support their families. So whoever wants to destroy their simple thinking is their enemy, and whoever wants to protect their thinking is their benefactor. The reason is simple and easy to understand.
There are a lot of people who stop to watch the list. But in fact, not many people are literate. And not everyone has the time to stand by and read every name on it.
An old farmer with a basket on his back frowns and pauses before the list for a long time, and finally grabs a young man in long gown who seems to be literate.
"The old man is illiterate, and his eyes are not good. You young child, help the old man count how many soldiers died in this notice?"
"Old man, what are you counting for?"
"Go back and find a carpenter to carve a plaque. If there are too many names to carve, just carve as many spirits of heroes as you can, and the old man will put them in the hall."
"Well, wait a moment and let me count. There are 277 strong men on this list."
"Okay."
"."
The soldiers guarding the city gate on the side with a straight face, interrupted: "Why do you provide the number of people? I really want to build the Zhonglie Hall outside the city next month to help with strength. It is true. Not only these brothers who are on the list can enter, but in the past The brothers who died in battle can all enter, they are all heroes who died in battle around our Fengsun City, maybe your family is still good, because they risked their lives for it."
It wasn't just the Black Flag Battalion that died in the battle, there were also people in the army, and there were also many people in the garrison. Although the people who envy the Black Flag Camp can post some honors after their death, it is not just the people of the Black Flag Camp who built the Hall of Loyalty. Naturally, the soldiers guarding the city will publicize this kind of thing. What matters is the birth names of all the people who eat this bowl of rice!
"To build the Hall of Loyalty?!"
"Well! It will start next month. It's on the flat ground beside the five-flower tree. If you go to see it now, the place should be outlined. Why are you lying to me?"
Following the few words of the guard soldiers, the people passing by were immediately aroused. It is said that they are incapable of killing thieves in battle, but it is no problem to help build the Hall of Loyalty. Who doesn't have the strength? It’s okay to help pick up a few shoulder poles of earth and rocks, right? As for wages? No one thought about it.
money? I help a group of heroes build ancestral halls, you ask me to raise money? Are you looking down on me?
People who have such a simple idea are not limited to the common people of Fengri City, this situation has already been staged at the gates of the big cities in the Jingjiu Dynasty.
It was not Shen Hao who came up with the idea, but Pang Ban, but it was the emperor who made the decision. After all, such a matter of great mourning and glory as the establishment of the Zhonglie Hall can only be done by kindness, and it can only be the emperor, Pang Ban is not qualified for this.
Originally, after hearing about this incident, Shen Hao wasn't sure if it would be blocked by Qing Chi on the emperor's body, but now it seems that it is not. The emperor approved all the affairs of the Zhonglie halls in various places in one breath, and allocated a large sum of money from the Ministry of Internal Affairs to use them exclusively. The specific affairs will be taken care of by the local yamen.
However, when Pang Ban mentioned this matter to the emperor, he really just mentioned it in passing, saying, "It is better for someone to keep an eye on this matter, so as not to search for it below." So the Black Flag Camp became a "supervisor". .
PS: There is another chapter to be posted in the afternoon, and I will go to a physical therapy in the morning. Sorry everyone.
