Chapter 1530: A Peaceful Day
"Okay, since you don't say it, I won't ask. He Linghan wanted to speak and stopped, nodded slightly, she is a "good wife and good mother", everything is centered on Ye Shikai, considerate and tender, Ye Shikai didn't want to lose his temper on purpose, but ...... Hua Liandie's words had too much impact on him, and for a few hours, he had been thinking about this matter in his mind.
Hua Liandie is a "giant businessman", this is just Ye Shikai knows, maybe she has more power under her, in addition, she has food, money and people in her hands, and the background identity of the nobles of Chu State, if she really rebels, she will definitely be able to get the support of those nobles in Chu, and respond to all calls, plus the resources in hand, recruiting troops, its scale must be much larger than the rebel army that Ye Shikai met, and there are not many Qin troops in Chu, if she really raises troops, she can at least threaten the rule of several counties in Chu.
As the general of the Qin army, especially Ye Shikai hates war from the bottom of his heart, so he does not support the behavior of flowers and butterflies, but everyone has their own ambitions and cannot be forced.
It was only at this time that Ye Shikai understood why Hua Liandie would stay at his house for two days, just to wait for him to come back and resign, the next time the two met, I am afraid they would be enemies.
"Flower Love Butterfly, I hope we don't meet on the battlefield. ”
Late at night.
Ye Shikai decided to stay at home for a while and accompany He Linghan, although he couldn't go on a honeymoon like in modern times, but at least he could go around the surrounding counties, but He Linghan still wanted to stay at home, now it was chaotic outside, Ye Shikai respected her choice.
Unconsciously, two months passed in a flash, this can be said to be the most comfortable and happiest two months after Ye Shikai came to the Qin Dynasty, Yan Yu was beheaded by the order of the county guard, and the head was hung in the bazaar, Ye Shikai didn't look at it, he knew very well that Yan Yu was a real general, not those "mountain kings" who shouted for the heavens, but did burning, killing and looting , they are opportunists, Yan Yu and them are fundamentally two types of people, he has no personal wealth, no speculation, he is bent on overthrowing the tyranny of the Qin Dynasty, although his position is opposite, but Ye Shikai respects him.
And since Yan Yu's forces were wiped out, the rebel activities in the entire Dongjun have suddenly decreased a lot, perhaps because they have played the role of "killing chickens and setting an example for monkeys", and they have become a lot more honest.
As for Ye Shikai, he also went back and forth between the mansion and the barracks every day, exterminating the rebel army entrenched in the Beast Mountain, he got more rewards, and Ma Yao also valued him more, but perhaps because he was worried about "high merit and shocking the master", Ye Shikai robbed him of his position, so Ma Yao only rewarded Ye Shikai with money and treasures, but did not promote his military position.
Barrack.
"Shangguan, how is the training of the recruits? Ye Shikai looked at the bamboo slip in his hand and asked lightly.
"We are training according to the plan, Lao Ye, it's the first time since we have commanded the army that we have had so much time to train new recruits. Shangguan Jian teased, Ye Shikai smiled bitterly, but this is also a fact, whether it was the initial fight against the wolf clan in the north of Hanoi County, or the formation of a cavalry team in the "line of fire" of Shifeng Fortress, the training of these recruits did not exceed half a month, and they were all in a hurry, and they waited until the wolf clan war was over and they returned to the county to have enough time to organize training.
"You're right, if you train them all, you'll be able to take charge on the battlefield. Ye Shikai attaches great importance to the overall combat strength of the troops, especially the training of the commander and the commander, on the battlefield, tens of thousands of people are fighting together, it is impossible to command the commander alone, and if the war is stalemate, it is often the party that the grassroots soldiers have the first to lose their morale, and the commander and the commander are the "direct command" of the soldiers, and they are the mainstay of the victory or defeat on the battlefield.
"Yes, now that there is peace in the county, we can also take a breather. Shangguan Jian nodded and replied, the Battle of Beast Mountain was over, and Ye Shikai's troops also lost more than 2,000 brothers, and the losses were not light, but Ma Yao was also enough to "take care" of him, and the supplementary soldiers were selected by him first.
"How many new recruits have come in. ”
"The 5,000 recruits are all in place, because the time of their assembly is not uniform, so I will arrange for the training of the recruits who come first, and then arrange the rest of those who arrive late. ”
"Well, you're doing it right. ”
"Old Ye, we now lack experienced captains and commanders in our army, and only half of the brothers who first went out with us to fight the wolf clan are left, even if they are all promoted, the number is not enough to place so many new troops. Shangguan Jian reported, counting the recruit troops, Ye Shikai has 13,400 people under his command, but the total number of Wu Chang and Shi Chang is not more than 1,200 people, and the main reason is that these "veterans" have been consumed a lot by the continuous war, and they are the first to rush to the front line, which is the most dangerous "position".
"It's a tricky thing to do. Ye Shikai shook his head in embarrassment, unlike recruits, these captains and commanders all need actual combat experience, especially the baptism of vicious battles and tough battles, which cannot be made up in a short period of time.
"Without them, the training process of recruits is bound to slow down, and military discipline is prone to laxity. Shangguan Jian continued.
"You're right. Ye Shikai showed a sad look on his face, and suddenly, as if he had thought of something, he turned to look at Shangguan Jian.
"By the way, I thought that among the prisoners of war of the rebel army that we captured, there should be quite a few commanders and chiefs. Ye Shikai said.
"Why, old Ye, do you want to pull them into the ranks. Shangguan Jian's face was surprised, not that he doubted the combat strength of these rebel troops, but the two sides were still fighting on the Beast Mountain two months ago, and now they want to pull them into the team to serve as the commander and the commander, for fear that the sergeants will complain.
"Don't worry, I have a solution. Ye Shikai once promised Yan Yu to save his subordinates as much as possible, but he was worried that there was no legitimate reason, and now it is an excellent opportunity, first, to take the opportunity to save these people, and second, to replenish the officers needed by the army.
The only thing that needs to be considered now is how to convince Ma Yao, Ye Shikai is still sure of this, after all, he is now Ma Yao's "cronies", as long as Ye Shikai is sure to discipline them, Ma Yao has no reason to refuse.
"Okay, since you have made a decision, Lao Ye, then I will fully support you, there are many prisoners in our army, and it is nothing to have more prisoners now. Shangguan Jian joked with a smile.
