Chapter 176: West No. 3 Pier Flag
At the fourth day of the fifth month, a new wooden bridge at the West No. 3 pier was being built. The wooden door of the pier had been repaired. Two hundred mobile troops from the 1,000 headquarters were on guarding the river bank. Wei Yuanba and twenty-nine secret service soldiers were also traveling near the pier.
A quarter of an hour [half an hour] later, a stream of smoke rose hundreds of steps away from the pier. Looking through the smoke, an army of nearly a thousand people was slowly sailing towards the pier.
Zhao Hai walked in front of the team with 500 personal soldiers. The 1000 headquarters tested the Thousand General Manager Li Tiedan, the 2000 headquarters tested the Thousand General Manager Wu Lin, the 3000 headquarters tested the Thousand General Manager Wang Tiezhu, the 4000 headquarters tested the Thousand General Manager Sun Zhuang, the 4000 headquarters tested the Thousand General Manager Fang Yuanshan, the 4000 headquarters tested the Thousand General Manager Zhao Hu, the 500 director of the Chef Bureau, the 500 director of the Logistics Bureau Zheng Da, the 6th Horse Bureau Director Xu Mancang, the 6th Martial Arts Bureau Director Qian Fei, the 6th Education Bureau Director Zhou Shan, the 6th Education Bureau Director of the Huatuo Medical Center Director Quan Guangzong and more than 500 people walked in the back team.
More than half a minute later, Zhao Hai and his group came under a three-foot platform outside the West No. 3 pier. Zhao Hai slowly climbed onto the platform. After standing still, he took a simple loudspeaker made of thin iron and said loudly to the trumpet: "The First Thousand Headquarters Testing Chief Li Tiedan was stationed in Nanguan, Jingzhenpu and Ranch Office, and achieved the great victory in West No. 3 pier."
"In this battle, more than 80 Jiannu people were killed and forty of Zhenyi's heads were captured, and Bayala was captured. This was the third great victory achieved by my Weihai Camp. All those who have made contributions should be rewarded with great rewards."
"Where is the fourth small flag of the 300th headquarters stationed at the No. 3 Pudai West?"
After a while, a group of twelve people walked out of the formation and came to the front of the stage. The twelve people knelt on one knee in unison. Wang Xiaoqi took the lead and said loudly: "The twelve people are here!"
Zhao Hai looked at the twelve people in the audience and shouted to the speakers: "The fourth small flag of the first general flag of the 300th headquarters of the 1,000th headquarters will be the first to win the West No. 3Duntai."
"One ordinary soldier of the Fourth Small Banner is rewarded with one acre of farmland he rented, and the land deed will be issued to him by the end of this month. From today on, one liter of tax per mu of owned land will be reduced by one liter of land rent per mu. Each person will be rewarded with one tael of silver, one piece of cotton, one jar of rice wine, ten eggs, one pound of pork, and one hundred pounds of manure."
"The fourth small flag leader will reward each person with one acre of farmland. The land deed will be issued to him by the end of this month. From today on, the tax per mu of owned land will be reduced by one liter per mu. The rented land will be reduced by one liter per mu. Each person will be rewarded with one tael of silver, one tael of cotton, one jar of rice wine, eleven eggs, one pound of pork and one half pound of manure."
"The fourth small flag, Xiaoqi, is calm and composed when encountering the enemy, and is very willing to be calm. He will reward him with one acre of farmland. The land deed will be issued to me before the end of this month. From today on, the taxes per mu of owned land will be reduced by one liter per mu, and the rented farmland will be reduced by one liter per mu. The reward is one tael and two cents of silver, one piece of cotton cloth, one jar of rice wine, twelve eggs, two kilograms of pork, and one hundred and twenty kilograms of manure."
"The owner of the Fourth Small Banner recorded his military achievements once, and after the expansion, he was promoted to another level. He was given the fourth small flag to the West Third Duntai Banner and the military flag. The West Third Duntai Banner was expanded to twenty-five people, and Wang Xiaoqi was promoted to the First General Banner and the Fourth Small Banner Small Banner, and four personal soldiers of the small flag were assigned to the First General Banner."
"The left sergeant of the fourth small flag was promoted to the deputy small flag and left sergeant of the fourth small flag, with nine people under its jurisdiction; the right sergeant of the fourth small flag was under its jurisdiction; starting this month, military pay was paid, ordinary soldiers were 1 qian of silver per month, 2 qian of silver per month, 3 qian of silver per month, and 4 qian of silver per month for the small flag."
"The fourth small flag supplies 30 kilograms of pork every month, and five kilograms of rice wine to fill a jar. Wang Xiaoqi receives the flag!"
As soon as Zhao Hai finished speaking, a personal soldier handed a three-foot-high red flag to Zhao Hai. Wang Xiaoqi looked up and saw a red flag fluttering in the wind embroidered with a tie-up and a pig's tail on the red flag with a tie-up on the ground, wearing white armor. There were six hideous heads with pig's tails scattered around Jiannu.
