Liu Xia led a group of generals and walked up to the platform that was erected, all sides of the high platform were guarded by soldiers, and no homeless people were allowed to enter within two zhang, after all, the high platform was full of senior generals in the army, if one or two generals were assassinated at this time, although Liu Xia would not die, the army would not collapse, but there would still be some chaos.

However, it is also necessary for Liu Xia to go to this platform, because Liu Xia wants to talk about it in person, so that people with lofty ideals and capable people can enter his army.

In addition to the guards and special brigades around the high platform, the soldiers of the Tiger Camp were also scattered outside to patrol the homeless people around them to prevent dangerous characters from appearing among these homeless people.

The sky was a little overcast, and the wind was blowing, bringing a burst of coolness to the slightly humid weather.

Liu Xia was wearing a shiny iron armor, and behind him stood Wang Shishi, the captain of the personal guards, Yu Mingjun, the captain of the special brigade, Liu Dazhuang, the commander of the Huben battalion, Zhang Liang, the commander of the recruit battalion, Niu Chao, the deputy battalion commander, Wang En, the commander of the logistics battalion, Chen Liu, the deputy commander of the logistics battalion, and some middle and low-level generals.

Like Liu Xia, they were all dressed in shiny iron armor, which was part of the more than 200 pieces of iron armor captured in Zhaojiabao at that time. As for the rest of the soldiers, they are still in tattered clothes.

Those homeless people had eaten rice, and some of them were full, with happy smiles in their mouths, patted their stomachs, and looked up at Liu Xia, their eyes full of gratitude.

There are also some homeless people who are a little tall, although they have become yellow and thin because of hunger, and they are skinny, but the amount of food is still there, of course, this bowl of rice is not enough, but this is already the best and most meal they have eaten these days, and they are also very grateful to Liu Xia.

They all knew that the person standing on the high platform now, at the front, wearing bright iron armor, was the general who gave them food, Liu Xia.

They looked at Liu Xia curiously, wanting to know what Liu Xia wanted to do, they were all like this, what else did Liu Xia have to say? I don't have the money to turn it in.

Is it to distribute food? That's great. Some of the homeless people thought happily in their hearts.

Liu Xia faced the cool breeze, and looked at the thousands of homeless people in front of him expressionlessly, these were very tattered, and even some were not covered by their bodies, their faces were yellow and thin, and some even looked like bone frames.

Liu Xia waved his arm and motioned for the homeless people at the scene to calm down, and those homeless people were also very curious about what Liu Xia wanted to say, so when they saw Liu Xia as if they were going to say something, the chaotic voice gradually began to disappear.

Liu Xia saw that the scene was quiet, and said loudly: "I am the supreme general of this army, my name is Liu Xia!" It's the general of the Han people, the general who fought out of Yangzhou City!

I don't know what you used to do, and I don't know if you've heard about Yangzhou City, I know that the land where we are now is now ruled by barbarians from the north, but they haven't completely managed this place, so that there are chaos and bandits everywhere.

You have nothing to eat, you run away from home, and in the end you don't even know you're going to die. We are all Han Chinese, and General Ben should help you, but you also see that this is impossible.

Don't make a noise, first of all, I don't have so much food, and I don't have land, so you can live. It's impossible to keep you, and I can only say sorry to you. ”

Looking at the reactions of these displaced people, there was anger, numbness, and hope, but none of them dared to make trouble, because the many soldiers with weapons around them were staring at them.

Even if there are thousands of people, they are all rabble, and people who have been hungry for so many days can have how much combat power can they have?

Liu Xia saw everything in his eyes, paused, and said: "However, if some of you are willing to join the general's army, drive out the Tartars, and restore my big man, then you are my people, although I dare not guarantee that you will have big fish and meat at every meal, but it is still okay to let you eat a full stomach."

If some of you are willing to join the army, after the general has finished speaking, there will be a special person here to recruit, and you can come here and sign up.

The most basic requirement for our army to recruit new recruits is that the minimum is not less than eighteen, and the maximum is not higher than forty. I know that many of you will be expelled from the army, but Ben promises that whether you want to join the army or not, Ben will give each of you a bucket of rice to leave.

Similarly, for those who leave, I will also prepare special people to distribute food in one location for you to leave here. ”

After Liu Xia finished speaking, the displaced people below exploded the pot and began to discuss, someone gave food this year, and if you don't follow it, you will miss the opportunity, although the general promised to give everyone a bucket of rice, but a bucket of rice, you can't eat for many days at all, when you finish eating rice, you have to be hungry, maybe you will starve to death in the future, and follow the general, you don't have to worry about starvation in the future.

Although they also heard that it was very dark in the army, and some of the army did not pay food all year round, but it was good to give one meal, and they just wanted to live.

To live, yes is to live, they just want to live, as long as they have something to eat, they are willing to do anything.

After Liu Xia finished speaking, he left, and then a few guards brought a few tables from Zhuojiabao, placed them on the high platform, and put three chairs, these three chairs were the seats of Yu Mingjun, Wang Shishi and Chen Liu.

The original assignment said that Wang Shishi and Yu Mingjun would recruit recruits, but Wang Shishi invited Chen Liu over.

Yu Mingjun knows the art of war and can write, but he is not a professional writer, so he is not good at writing, and he has been more accustomed to the knife in the army for so long, rather than the pen, so the pen is a little rusty for him.

And Wang Shishi is even more of a big old man, who knows a few words, but he doesn't know much. There was no choice but to find Chen Liu, who was born in Xiucai, and Chen Liu would help them write down their names.

The pen and paper inkstone are all taken from Zhuojiabao, there is no lack of anything, and the things in Zhuojiabao are very complete.

Because it is said that the lord of Zhuojiabao is a man from a high background and has not been admitted to the Jinshi, so he was disheartened, and he was unwilling to wait for the scarce appointment of the ministry, so he returned to his hometown and became a squire, annexed land, bullied the people, robbed ** women, and did all kinds of evil.

Although he has done a lot of evil things, as a reader, he still likes to write and read books, so the most in his family is this ink, paper and inkstone.

After Liu Xia left, some other generals also left, including the chief and deputy commanders of the recruit battalion also left this place, and the personal guards also left here because of Liu Xia, and only special forces were left on the periphery of this place, and the Tiger Ben battalion also returned to their respective camps.

Although there are only about 90 people in the special forces, all of them are elites, and these people can already maintain these homeless people.

On the other side is the people of the logistics battalion, the logistics battalion is now in charge of their battalion commander Wang En, Chen Liu, the deputy battalion commander, ran to Wang Shishi to help Wang Shishi, so their logistics battalion is only he, Wang En, to complete this matter.

Wang En was surrounded by soldiers from the logistics battalion, and Wang En was not guarded by soldiers on his side, because Wang En was not worried about the homeless people rioting and moving, so he just had his own soldiers from the logistics battalion to maintain it.

There are a lot of homeless people who want to follow Liu Xia, and of course there are also those who are unwilling to follow Liu Xia.

After Liu Xia finished talking just now, Wang Shishi and Wang En received the recruits, and the other distributed food for those who were unwilling to be recruits, and people on both sides began to gather continuously, but there were still more people on Wang En's side.

Most of the people on Wang En's side are women and children, and it is impossible to join the army, of course, there are not only such people, there are also some young and strong people who are unwilling to take risks, they just want to eat, drink and have fun, since Liu Xia gave them food for free, what are they doing with Liu Xia?

They still have to fight with Liu Xia, and they themselves can be very casual.

…………

"Don't mess around, come one by one, here's your bucket of rice, that's good"

The soldiers in the logistics team distributed bags of cloth bags containing a bucket of rice to the homeless people who lined up.

Under the guard of the soldiers of the logistics battalion, no one dared to take more and snatch more, and those people were happy to spend the bags of rice that they had given themselves, although they knew that this bucket of rice would not last long, but they had no choice, they could live one day at a time, as for what would happen in the future, it would be later, now they will live well now.

Compared with the situation on the side of the logistics battalion, Wang Shishi is also very lively.

According to Liu Xia's regulations, don't drag your family with you, don't worry about it, basically only need one single, so when they ascend the throne, they will ask who is around them, and then write it down.

In the end, let them go and wait for the side, and when the time comes, when they are selected to enter the new barracks, inform them, and as for those who have not entered the new barracks, go to the logistics camp to get a bucket of food and leave.

"My name is Erniu, I have a younger sister, and there is no one else around me"

"Okay, you go over there and wait, if you're chosen, we'll have someone call you"

……

"My name is Wang Er, I am alone, I have no relatives"

……

"Next"

"My name is Zhang Wa, and I still have a father over there"

……

"Next"

"I'm called a dog, and I have an old lady......"

…………

There are seven or eight hundred homeless people who have come to sign up and want to join the army, but according to Liu Xia's lack of family and family, there are only more than 400 people who ask for it alone, and they do not look at their specific physical condition. I don't know how many people will be eliminated at that time.

By the third quarter of the Shen hour, the work of selecting those who had no families had basically been completed, Chen Liu took the list of those who were selected, came to the group of displaced people who participated in the recruitment, and now they were sitting on the ground and shouted: "Those who have passed our test are, Wang Er......

One by one, they pricked up their ears and listened carefully, fearing that their names would pass.

After reading the names of those people, Chen Liu continued: "Those who are not chosen, you can receive two buckets of grain, one more than those people." The chosen ones follow me at this time."
