Chapter 233: Smell the Wind
On that day, in addition to the 1,000 personal soldiers around Han Xin, the elite of the headquarters marched north under the leadership of Jia Gu, and they would capture the city one after another along the way.
And those armies that have only been reorganized since the expedition have returned, with their own expectations, and went back to pull a dream for themselves.
Han Xin, on the other hand, called the shots in the name of Jagu and proclaimed himself the county guard of Surabaya.
The Han state continued some of the Qin systems, with the county governor called the county guard, while the Chu state was known for its looks.
Although this Surabaya county guard is a bit funny, he is in charge of a city father who has just been laid, with a population of more than 300,000......
On the first day, Han Xin ordered the granaries to be counted and announced that all those who had already paid the taxes could come and receive the same amount of grain with vouchers.
As soon as this order came out, the entire city father was displeased, and even spread to the surrounding counties at a faster speed.
For a while, the surrounding people were looking forward to the Han army coming to rescue them earlier.
The people of Chu are not easy, and the nobles are still the boulder that weighs on their heads.
In the later years of the Qin Dynasty, the nobles revived, and their rise in the Chu State was much faster and more powerful than in other places.
Ordinary people have no capital to resist at all.
The next day, Han Shin promulgated the laws of the Han Kingdom.
On the third day, Han Xin waited for the first batch of returning soldiers.
And this time, it was a huge surprise.
"General, after someone outside the city heard that the general was recruiting soldiers, some people gathered and wanted to come and defect." The pro-soldier found Han Xin and said.
"How many are there?" Han Xin asked.
"That's about a thousand!"
"A thousand?" Han Xin frowned slightly.
A mouthful of spit and a mouthful of nails, if he says it, he will naturally admit it.
But he didn't expect that the first to bring in a thousand people was not those subordinates who were absorbed by him, but an ordinary person who heard the news.
This surprised Han Xin, but since everyone came, there was naturally no reason to refuse.
"How's the staff?" Han Xin then asked.
"I feel pretty good, there is no obvious problem with my big eyes, all of my body is thin, and my skin is dark......"
It's coming!
When he heard the descriptions of thin body and dark skin, Han Xin decided to get rid of these people.
For no other reason, being thin means that he is not from a wealthy family, and his skin is dark, which means that he is often exposed to the sun.
To put it more simply, 90 percent of these people are likely to be peasants who often don't have enough to eat.
Now that I have such an opportunity, one by one I began to have ideas.
And for this kind of person, it is the best to control and the best to submit.
"Bring the leaders and arrange for the brothers to inspect the troops!" Han Xin commanded directly.
"No!"
Hanxin is still looking forward to the future.
Although the elite soldiers are gone, they are not completely without opportunities.
His own soldiers are still there, and when these people come, they are not going to be drawn immediately.
First, they had to wait for their weapons at the city father.
Yes, Han Xin did not take too many weapons with him in the cities captured along the way, and the weapons in various places were also kept for the recruitment of soldiers in various places.
After receiving a secret order from Wang Buxing, Han Xin asked the scouts to speed up and inform Wang that he needed to replenish his weapons in order to form a new army to complete the mission.
And these weapons will be transported from the territory of the Han Kingdom.
No matter how fast the speed is, it will take about 20 days to go back and forth, plus the time of allocation.
And these twenty days are the time for Han Xin to train the troops.
As for the task, for the time being, I can only put it aside first, and there are no weapons, so what a fart?
After a short time, the leader was led in.
Han Xin subconsciously looked at the other party, he was about seven and a half feet tall, although he was thin, he looked a little capable, especially those eyes, which made people look like a person with a story.
When he saw this person, Han Xin didn't doubt that he could bring in a thousand people.
"Why did a strong man come to join the army?" Han Xin asked after kneeling for a few cases.
"We don't have anywhere else but to join the army......
"Oh?" Han Xin asked pretending not to know.
"The general doesn't know, we are actually their slaves, even if we can mix up an official and a half-position, it is just a little higher than other slaves, our sons, grandchildren, children and grandchildren, will always be slaves, we are tired and tired of farming every year, we can still barely survive, we are desperate on the battlefield, at most we can stutter more. If we follow the Han army to fight, we can even imagine what it is like to live like an ordinary person, and the general said that if we bring four people, we will be the commander, and if we bring a thousand people, we will be a thousand, so we decided to fight once......"
Han Xin nodded, he couldn't find a problem with this reason.
Although the Qin Dynasty was the beginning of feudal society, the slavery system still did not withdraw from the stage of history in this era.
Even in the following hundreds of years, it has not been able to completely withdraw from the stage of history.
For those who really can't survive, becoming a slave may be a way to keep them alive.
"Aren't you afraid they'll arrest your family?" Han Xin asked, he knew that this group of people was not local to the city father, but the city father, the lower city father, and the intersection of the three counties of Xuanxian County.
It is not known exactly which county it belongs to, but it is from the location in the middle of this iron triangle.
"Don't be afraid! We are not the only slaves in the Chu army, there are about a thousand people left, and they will take care of our children! ”
"What is the name of the strong man?" Han Xin smiled slightly, he didn't expect these people to be quite smart.
Come to part of the way, leave some housekeepers, in case the Han army attacks in the future, the people who stay can also be used as internal responses, and when the time comes, they can come over, and at the same time they can also make a war achievement.
Han Xin has no objection to this kind of cleverness, but he is afraid of people who don't know how to use cleverness.
"Single!"
"Single?" Han Xin nodded, there are quite a few people with only one word as their name, so there is nothing strange about it.
"When I was young, there was only one person left in the family, so I changed my name to Shan ......," Shan explained.
Judging by his age, when he was young, it was probably during Qin Zhengchu's first war, and as a slave, it was not surprising that anything would happen.
Whether a slave is happy or not depends on whether the slave owner gives him strength or not, and whether he is willing to invest in it.
A slave who is happy can probably have a wife and family of his own, and a slave who is not lucky, let alone that.
If the baby girl is born, some people feel that there are enough female slaves in the family, so in order to avoid wasting food, they simply solve the problem, leaving only the baby boy.
And this kind of slave, want a family?
It's just hilarious.
What does their mode of operation look like?
Female slaves and male slaves live separately, in order to stimulate male slaves to work hard, so female slaves are taken as a reward, and the male slaves who work best can enjoy a female slave, of course, not formulated, but the kind you choose.
And if a female slave is pregnant, she does not know whose birth it is.
So in this model, most of the children follow the female slave, and when they are able to work, they are pulled out and start their lives as slaves.
Shan Zushang's fate is not bad, he can have a family of his own, but this family was also lost when he was young, and now Shan is also a slave.
"Since you have come, it is the brother, and when this battle is over, the general will personally write to the king, asking for pardon for your slave body......"
