Chapter 1515: Conquest of the Empire (11)
"It can't be, right? I obviously saw dozens of people from the Qin family being carried away! An officer shouted. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
"They're just injured and alive. Even those who are missing arms and legs are still alive! An officer said in a heavy, aggravated tone.
"What? No way! How can a person with missing arms and legs survive on the battlefield? Before anyone else came to help, the blood was drained and he died! An officer shouted in a bit of a panic.
"This is a fact, all the seriously injured people in the Qin family are indeed not dead." Liu Ming said faintly.
The officers were all silent, they didn't know what this meant, it represented the Qin family's military physicians' superb ability? Or does it represent that the soldiers of the Qin family are different? The other soldiers encountered something that was absolutely dead, and it was just a cripple for the soldiers of the Qin family?
Just when everyone was thinking nonsense, dozens of carriages with the banner of Colonel Zhao Hu's name rumbled in front of them.
An officer with the rank of second lieutenant jumped out of the carriage, saluted Liu Ming and said: "Chief Navy, the subordinate officer is from the logistics department, and he was ordered by the lord to deliver the supplies to the Marine Corps, please send someone to count the supplies." As he spoke, he handed over a file.
Liu Ming and the officers were stunned for a moment, and then immediately reacted, this is Zhao Hu began to buy people's hearts, but this also means that Zhao Hu sees himself as a member of the system, and he has to accept it whether he wants to be willing or not, so he is busy with the second lieutenant.
As for the work of counting the supplies, of course, it is familiar with the way to follow the list and start receiving it one by one. After the inventory was completed, the officers who received the materials were stunned for a while, and the number of materials received actually matched the list?
Since I joined the army, I have never heard that the materials of any army will not be embezzled by people under the pretext of being worn out and drifted on the road.
Even the emperor's Praetorian Guard, when receiving supplies, was also drifted in two layers, and the highest record of local troops drifting was a terrifying eight layers!
Now it's actually a real allocation of materials? No consumption at all?! How could there be such a ...... Eh, what an idiot I am, now the system I am in is not the Imperial Army, but the Qin family!
It should be the Qin family's system that the materials are really allocated, and they don't need to make a special fuss.
Thinking of this, the officer who received the supplies reported to Liu Mingyu, who was still chatting with the second lieutenant: "Sir, I have received 3,250 sets of armor, helmets, military uniforms, 700 spears, 5,000 machetes, 5,000 small round shields, 700 strong bows, 2,000 bowstrings, and 1,000 bundles of iron arrows. ”
Liu Ming, who was still expressionless at the beginning, looked at the list with a blank face, and became more and more surprised as the information reported by the officer, as a rear admiral who was suppressed, of course he knew what the materials that met the list represented, but he vaguely knew how rich Zhao Hu's net worth was, and he quickly recovered.
Seeing the expressions of Liu Ming and the others, the second lieutenant nodded, took out a document and said, "Admiral, if the supplies are correct, please sign here." ”
After signing it, Liu Ming sighed and said, "Alas, I have to say, we really took refuge in an amazing boss. ”
The officers nodded in agreement with different expressions.
Seeing that the battlefield was also cleaned, Zhou Wen asked, "My lord, will we go back next, or will we take advantage of the victory to directly attack the Lu family's territory?" They now have just over 20,000 troops, which is certainly not our opponent, and we still have an integrated brigade at our disposal, which can definitely take them down in one fell swoop. ”
Zhao Hu shook his head and said: "We have been adrift from the sea for more than ten days, and then as soon as we arrived, we faced the invasion of the enemy, and after a high-intensity battle, the physical strength and spirit of the soldiers have reached the limit.
The corpses on the battlefield had been buried, and the seriously wounded prisoners were carried by other prisoners on improvised stretchers, and under the supervision of Zhao Hubing, they began to slowly walk towards the base of the Third Fleet.
The team began to move forward, and the wounded soldiers were relieved, and after a long time of tense breath, the whole person softened, and the moans that had been endured for a long time also came out. The captives were not surprised by this, but their faces were full of ease, and their steps were much faster.
The prisoners, who had been nervous, were relieved to see that the wounded had not been treated, because according to custom, the victor would do everything to avoid trouble for the seriously wounded captives.
I didn't expect that the victor this time would not do anything to add a knife, but would rescue the seriously injured prisoners, so it seems that the future should be very good, look at the dress of these victor soldiers, you can know how high their treatment is.
Well, I'm really looking forward to the day when these victors will be incorporated into soldiers.
Liu Ming, who followed Zhao Hu again, couldn't help but say a little stammering after seeing this scene: "The lord is really merciful, even the captives are willing to serve the lord!" ”
Before Zhao Hu could speak, Zhou Wen looked at the captives with disdain and said, "Effectiveness? They don't have the qualifications yet, and we treat them because we want to forge our doctors, and we don't want to waste these strong slaves in vain. ”
Hearing the previous sentence, Liu Ming nodded in agreement.
It's normal to have no qualifications now, the combat ability of these Lu soldiers is not as good as the Marine Corps with half a bucket of water, why should they be a member of Zhao Hujun?
Hearing the middle sentence, Liu Ming was stunned, the ability of forging chain doctors? Take a prisoner's seriously wounded soldier as a training object? Why should you say it so badly when you can use it to promote your own benevolent deeds? Aren't you afraid to scare people to death? I really don't understand what to think.
When he heard the last sentence, Liu Ming was dumbfounded, wasn't he? Actually take these captives as slaves?! Although many of the poor people who are now dependent on the powerful are actually no different from slaves, how can they still be free people on the surface, and now they openly reduce their captives to slaves? It's a little too rampant, right? Even if the authority of the Empire is gone, there is no need to flout the laws of the Empire so much, right?
Seeing what Liu Ming wanted to say when he opened his mouth, Zhao Hu smiled and said: "Actually, this slave is just an identity, and it is used to distinguish between retainers, warriors and civilians, and these captives will not really be used as slaves." ”
Liu Ming was stunned when he heard this, but he quickly understood that this was for those Qin family retainers, after all, the Qin family's retainers were all from the barbaric area of the Southeast Peninsula, and they absolutely did not want to be captured by their own army The enemy army, the status of the people under his rule actually sat down with the people, and it should be definitely lower than the people, so everyone's hearts were comfortable.
Seeing Liu Ming's relieved expression, Zhou Wen snorted and sneered in his heart: "Look, the horse's feet are exposed!" At first, when I heard that I was going to treat the captive as a slave, I was immediately nervous, and when I knew that the captive's slave status was just talking, I immediately breathed a sigh of relief, doesn't this show that you guys still have their hearts set on the empire? How dare you say it so nicely in front of people! Hum! Look how I have implemented the captive's slave status to make you want to cry without tears! ”
Returning to the base, Liu Ming saw that the prisoners were only restricted in their personal freedom, and the doctors also began to treat the wounded, and finally completely relieved, and after handing over the command of the Marine Corps to Zhao Hu, he put all his attention on the fleet.
The Lu family sent a wing of cavalry and three wings of infantry to attack the Third Fleet base, but the whole army was wiped out in one day, and no one knows how many soldiers escaped.
Although the Lu family's sphere of influence, especially in the army, due to the strict blockade of the Lu family, there was no rumor, but the surrounding warlords had long been reminded by the governor and had already implemented monitoring, and now as soon as they got the news, in addition to worrying that the Third Fleet would become stronger, they were more ambitious and ready to annex the Lu family.
These warlords, big or small, are all gearing up, hehe, one-third of the standing force is gone, of course, you have to take this opportunity to test it, even if you can't destroy the Lu family, it's good to take advantage of it.
The reason why the surrounding warlords are all targeting the Lu family, instead of the Third Fleet, which should also lose troops and soft persimmons in the perception of the warlords, is because the places occupied by the Third Fleet are all remote and desolate seashores, and no one asks for money or money.
And the Lu family, especially the place where they made their fortune, is a prosperous area, and if there is meat to gnaw stones, idiots will do this.
Of course, the Lu family noticed the intentions of the warlords, and the powerful figures of the family who were originally clamoring for the mobilization of a large army to destroy the Third Fleet in order to take revenge immediately shut up, and then agreed to the patriarch to issue a call order for all members to summon all the men in the territory to enter the army.
The Lu family's move stabbed the hornet's nest, and the surrounding warlords all scolded and entered the state of full recruitment.
Especially those small warlords, their hearts are dripping with blood, how much loss will all the men bring to the economy when they enlist in the army, and how much money does it take to maintain such a large team! But if you don't do this, you can't do it, who knows if the Lu family, which has greatly increased its troops, will take the opportunity to attack the Quartet!
All the members of the Lu family were recruited, and because of the threat of a huge number of troops, the surrounding warlords immediately followed suit, and for the same reason, the other warlords around these surrounding warlords could only follow suit. Almost in an instant, the entire seaside province, except for the governor with 100,000 elite soldiers, other warlords, large and small, were forced to reluctantly carry out the full conscription.
The Governor who got the news couldn't help laughing: "Haha, the Lu family really stabbed the hornet's nest, it is estimated that they can't go up and down now."
"If the full conscription is lifted, I am afraid that the surrounding warlords will immediately take advantage of the situation to attack, and if they are not lifted, it will cause huge damage to the people's livelihood and increase huge financial expenditures."
