Chapter 274: On the eve of leaving
After discussing with Han Chun until it was almost dawn, Sun Yang sent Han Chun to a camp tent, so that Han Chun could rest first and sleep for a while, Sun Yang and such a strong boy could still carry it, and Han Chun, who was half-old and middle-aged, was already not energetic.
After sending Han Chun away, Sun Yang squinted in the handsome tent for a while, and probably only slept for more than an hour.1 Sun Yang was woken up, saying that the Nanyang family had sent Sun Yang a gift.
Sun Yang didn't know what these Nanyang families would send, but Sun Yang thought that it wouldn't be a bad thing, so he asked the black clothes to bring the things in.
There weren't many things, two boxes, one large and one small, and a letter.
Sun Yang didn't look at things first, but opened the letter first, not surprisingly, this letter is the Nanyang family's letter of allegiance to Sun Yang, in the letter the Nanyang family promised that whether it is the Jiangdong army or the new army in Nanyang, they will provide enough food for 30,000 troops every year to consume a year, not to mention gold and silver, the quantity is also extremely rich.
Sun Yang threw down the letter, noncommittal in his heart, the attitude of the Nanyang family Sun Yang is understandable, after all, he is now powerful, they will naturally move closer to him, on the contrary, once he loses power, the Nanyang family will not send food and goods like this, and if he doesn't stab him in the back, Sun Yang will feel that Amitabha Buddha.
In the final analysis, these families are just a group of speculators, Sun Yang will not believe them, of course he will not touch them for the time being, leaving these families, half of the sky in Nanyang will collapse, which is inconsistent with Sun Yang's original intention, what he wants is a stable Nanyang.
After shaking his head and laughing at these things from the family, Sun Yang opened the box, the small one contained the official seal of Nanyang Taishou, and the big one contained a human head, which was the head of General Liu who went to ask for help from the family according to Zhou Jian's instructions last night. He escaped the blockade of the Jiangdong Army, but he could never escape the grasp of the general situation, and his head was used by the families as a vote of their loyalty to Sun Yang!
Maybe Sun Yang would feel disgusted and frightened when he saw the head of the person before, but after seeing too much Sun Yang, he didn't feel anything in his heart, just closed the box lightly and let the black clothes take it out to deal with it, Sun Yang didn't care about the life or death of this kind of little person.
The official seal is still easy to use in Sun Yang's hands, with this official seal, Sun Yang wrote a notice to the people, and after the officials copied a sufficient amount, Sun Yang printed a large seal in the name of Zhou Jian, and asked the officials to paste it everywhere in Wancheng.
There is not much content in the notice, the core is the people, last night's army movement was just to clean up the rebels, now that the rebels have been eliminated, the people can continue their lives with peace of mind!
After doing this, Sun Yang summoned Zu Mao again, his days in Nanyang were numbered, and Sun Yang tried his best to solve some important things.
"Childe, what is the matter with the end of the future?" Now Zu Mao has changed his words, and when he was in office, Zu Mao no longer called Sun Yang Erlang, but called Sun Yang Gongzi like everyone else.
"Uncle Da Rong, I worked hard for you last night, are the three thousand Jianghuai troops still honest?" That's right, the reason why Sun Yang came to Zu Mao is how to deal with these Jianghuai troops, it is impossible to release nature, but he can't just keep imprisoning them, so isn't Sun Yang going to raise them for nothing? This kind of loss-making business, Sun Yang will not do.
"Don't worry, Childe, one or two are very honest. All of them have been disarmed, and now they are all sleeping in the barracks! Zu Mao smiled, he looked down on this group of Jianghuai troops from the bottom of his heart, thinking that when Zhou Jian was in power before, they were very powerful, and only 3,000 people rode on the head of their Jiangdong army, and they were completely cowardly when they moved!
The Jianghuai army has this kind of performance, Sun Yang thinks it is reasonable, after all, in such a chaotic situation, the main general is not in the camp, naturally it cannot be twisted into a rope, but one thing Sun Yang can be sure of, these 3,000 Jianghuai army is not the 10,000 recruits can compare, as long as it is well arranged, it will not take long for them to become the Jiangdong Army and increase their combat effectiveness.
"That's the case, Uncle Da Rong, Yang is going to disrupt and arrange these three thousand Jianghuai troops in the Jiangdong Army, do you think this is appropriate?" Although Sun Yang already had a resolution in his heart, he also had to consider the actual situation of the Jiangdong Army, after all, this Jianghuai Army could not have a good reputation in their army, and it would only backfire if it was not good.
"Childe, there's no problem with this, the arrangement is good, but I don't know if they can be truly loyal to us." Zu Mao pondered for a while, it was easy to integrate these three thousand people into them. But what is not easy is that the two sides used to be opponents, whether they can really fight for them has to draw a question mark, if it will affect the stability of the army, Zu Mao would rather not have these 3,000 people!
"Uncle Da Rong, you have to give it a try, you go down and arrange it first, try to let them all integrate, if it really doesn't work, these 3,000 people will be assigned to the new army and under Huang Zhong's control." In fact, Sun Yang was unwilling to hand over these 3,000 people to the new army, and he didn't want to add another burden to the new army, which had not yet entered the right track.
"No!"
Sun Yang had already made this decision, and Zu Mao could only let it go.
"Uncle Da Rong, there is one more thing, now that Yuan Shu's forces in Nanyang have been eradicated, just in case, the Jiangdong Army has to start recruiting new soldiers, and the initial plan is to recruit 10,000 people first." Sun Yang knew that there was not much time left for them to expand their forces, and Zu Mao, who was not originally responsible for recruiting new soldiers, had to be careful, Sun Yang's goal was to make all the troops in Wancheng add up to more than 50,000 before the end of the battle against Dong!
Recruiting new recruits is a good thing, Zu Mao naturally will not refuse, it is not difficult for Nanyang, which has a large population, to recruit more than 10,000 people, as long as the food and baggage can keep up, he has no problem here.
"By the way, Uncle Da Rong, after Nanyang's matter is resolved, Yang will leave Nanyang to join his father, and when the time comes, Nanyang will count on you, Hansheng, and Han Chun and the three of you." Sun Yang decided to give Zu Mao a thorough understanding first, Sun Yang believed that after he left, with the cooperation of the three of them, Nanyang would be worry-free.
"Childe, are you going to the general? Didn't the general have an order for you to stay in Nanyang? Zu Mao's heart was actually unwilling for Sun Yang to leave Nanyang, not that he had no self-confidence, but to fight against the tiger and wolf army in Xiliang, Zu Mao was a little worried about Sun Yang's safety, he watched Sun Yang grow step by step to this point, he didn't want Sun Yang to have any accidents, because Sun Yang was the hope for the future of these Jiangdong veterans.
"Uncle Da Rong, Yang has made up his mind about this matter, so you don't need to persuade him." Sun Yang's attitude is very resolute, he not only wants to personally participate in this historical event, but most importantly, he is also burdened with tasks! There are less than two months left to calculate the time, can he not be in a hurry? Those five thousand Xiliang troops didn't stand like cabbage and let Sun Yang cut off his head one by one!
