Chapter 720

Time passed little by little. When the time reached noon, the smell of meat came from afar, accompanied by another big killer mace, that is, some Tatar cavalry soldiers who had been injured and sent to mercenaries were sent back to the center of the battlefield on both sides.

"Brothers, I'm Gu Shan. Many of you must know me. I was injured by an arrow and couldn't ride a horse, but I was sent to the mercenary to be a prisoner." a Tatar cavalry on the horse shouted loudly.

Such a cry soon caused bursts of discussion in the Tatar barracks. "That man is really Gu Shan. I'm not far from his hometown. I know him."

"He is Gu Shan. He was originally with me. He turned into ash and I recognized him. I just didn't expect that he couldn't get on the horse when he left in the morning. Now he can ride a horse."

Immediately, several Tatar cavalry took the initiative to stand up and prove the true identity of Gushan.

When his identity was implemented, the credibility of Gu Shan's words increased a lot. When he talked about his experience, everyone naturally chose to listen carefully. On hearing this, I also knew what happened to others in mercenaries.

In Gu Shan's own words, although he is a prisoner, he is really different from a prisoner.

Since he and his injured companions came to the mercenaries, they were surrounded by a group of medical officers called military doctors, and then various examinations, various treatments, various drugs and various means.

After treatment, hot broth and big cakes were sent to him, and some men from Mongolia surrounded him. Through chatting, let him know clearly that these Mongolian soldiers in front of him are not pretending; Through chatting, he learned more about the military system of mercenaries and the treatment of soldiers.

Gu Shan is a man who can speak. After seeing that many people are listening carefully to his speech, he bluntly announced that he learned that the treatment of soldiers is ten liang of silver for class B soldiers and fifteen liang of silver for class a soldiers.

The so-called B-type soldiers are the second-line troops with slightly weak fighting ability. Naturally, the A-type soldiers are the first-class troops with strong strength. When the treatment was announced, it immediately attracted whispers of tartar cavalry who listened carefully.

The salary of one Tatar cavalry a month is only two liang silver. Of course, if there is a war, there are still some additional benefits. For example, some of the things they grab can be owned by themselves, and some of the military merit they get can also be exchanged for silver.

But even so, on average, they get a limited amount of silver every month, which is far less than the salary of mercenaries. Not to mention, according to what Gu Shan has heard, once mercenaries encounter a war and win military merit, they will only be rewarded more. For example, if you kill an enemy on the battlefield, you can get one to ten liang of silver in return, which depends on who you kill.

In this way, the Tatar cavalry showed excitement and even longing in their eyes. The cavalry who can be here are all elite Tatars. In terms of combat ability, they are more powerful than the Tatar cavalry on the West River and the north slope. But all capable people are conceited, such as making military contributions, which is as easy as home cooking in their hands. Now, who doesn't feel excited to hear that military merit can get so many rewards?

The so-called capable people must first have a platform to show their abilities, and mercenaries here is obviously a very good platform to show the aspirations of capable people.

Speaking of the treatment of Mongolian cavalry, although their marching and fighting ability is very strong, due to the constraints of the environment, they seem to have no creativity except fighting and grazing. Therefore, their treatment has always been very low, not even as good as the northern Ming army, nor as good as the former Nuzhen department and Mongolian department in Narcissus town.

What you pay is not proportional to what you get, which once made many Tatar cavalry resent. But considering that everyone is like this on the Mongolian grassland, it will be balanced slowly. Just balance doesn't mean they really accept it. They still want to prove themselves and want to improve their treatment.

After all, with money, you can do a lot of things, which anyone knows. Why do Mongolian cavalry always like to loot everywhere? It won't even take long to think of soldiers pointing to the Central Plains. Isn't it because they are too poor?

As we all know, the Central Plains is vast and rich, and the people there are also very rich. If they don't give their ideas, who will give them their ideas. Although many people die in every war, compared with what we get, this risk is worth taking.

Now, instead of robbing others out of the grassland, they can also get good treatment, which is equivalent to sending benefits to themselves. How many people can not be excited? How many people can ignore it?

At this time, not only the ordinary Tatar cavalry, but also some Tatar centurions and centurions were moved. As Gu Shan said just now, the lowest salary for an ordinary soldier in a month is ten Liang silver. As a small general, he will only get more. If you follow this treatment and work in the mercenary army for several years, you will have money to marry a daughter-in-law, build a house and buy sheep and horses. With money and a happy and comfortable life, who would want to go to war and take risks?

The emergence of Gu Shan has made many people know more about mercenaries and yearn for them. In the following time, more Tatar cavalry soldiers who were slightly injured and treated, such as Gu Shan, were released, came to the center of the two armies and began to help publicize the benefits of mercenaries.

One person's words may not be credible, but what about ten people, a hundred people, and more?

Don't say that what you originally said is the truth. With so many people saying one thing together, even if it is false, it will come true.

As more and more of the original companions came out to speak, gradually, no one was doubting the truth of the matter. On the contrary, people's eyes are full of stars and imagine the benefits they will get after joining the employment.

Gu Shan and others will be sent out. Naturally, they have received a certain commitment from mercenaries. For example, Yang Er, the so-called mercenary logistics battalion commander in charge of receiving them, said that as long as they help persuade them, once the Tatar cavalry choose to surrender, they will not only receive one hundred and two silver awards for their military achievements, but also give priority to assessing their abilities and entering the class a corps after they are cured.

Even for their own sake, Gu Shan and others will go all out and do their best to boast a flower of mercenaries.

Finally, the effort paid off. Under the bewitchment of the language, a bold Tatar cavalry was the first to go out of the camp and come to the center of the two armies to express their willingness to surrender to mercenaries.

His appearance was naturally welcomed by Gu Shan and others. In the warm applause, soldiers from two battalions were also dispatched from the mercenary side to welcome him. In addition, a specially assigned person was immediately responsible for the registration. The receiving officer also appreciated that the Tatar cavalry dared to stand up first, and said that if he performed well, he would give more consideration to his promotion and silver addition in the future.

With such a living example in front of us, the other Tatar cavalry finally couldn't help it. They took the initiative to stand up one by one and scrambled to be the first. It seemed that they were afraid that if they took one step at night, all the benefits would be robbed by others.

More and more Tatar cavalry chose to surrender, laid down their weapons, jumped off their horses and joined the camp of mercenaries. Therefore, the tension of the previous war slowly disappeared, so that the originally tight string was also put down, and there were examples of centurions and centurions joining the mercenaries.

In the camp of Tatar cavalry, Su he stood at the door of the tent, looking at what was happening in front of him for a long time. There was no expression on his face. He couldn't tell whether he was happy or lost.

Su he's mood is indeed a little complicated. You say he is happy. He is naturally happy that so many brothers have a way to live. But at the same time, there are some worries that mercenaries will be bad to their brothers. If they immediately surrender, it is tantamount to fish on the chopping board, which can be slaughtered. If all this is false, what should we do?

In this mood of worrying about gain and loss, Gu Shan, who had done his best to say before, crossed the middle line between the two armies and came to Su He.

Su he intended to ask for this. He wanted to contact Gu Shan alone, and then use experience to judge whether what the other party said is true or false. Seeing someone coming, he quietly turned and walked towards the big tent, spitting out a word, "come with me!"

Gu Shan was naturally nervous and even nervous. After all, he was just an ordinary Tatar cavalry in the past. It was a thing he didn't want to see a general like Su He commanding the army. But now, they can meet alone. It is conceivable how the mentality will change.

Once entered into the account, it was very cold inside. Su he turned his head and said casually, "take any seat."

"General Xie, I'm used to standing." Gu Shan can still carry his identity clearly. He doesn't have a seat, but respectfully stands aside.

Su he didn't say anything about Gu Shan's performance, but asked casually after taking care of his seat, "tell me, tell me everything you saw after you went to the mercenary camp and the benefits they promised you. Remember, don't make a lie. If I find out, you'll never get out of this big account."

The voice didn't have the slightest sense of anger, that is, even the murderous spirit didn't come out, but these words brought a lot of pressure to Gu Shan, so that he suddenly burst into a cold sweat. It also gave him a feeling that he had better not tell any lies in front of general Su He, otherwise his life would be lost here.
