Chapter 202: Han Water Army
Yingcheng's pacification of the Northern Wang's army and the surrender of prisoners finally came to an end, and immediately afterwards, it was to start arranging the relevant matters of the [Han Water Army].
Now that the Yunmeng Army has slowly embarked on the regular, Du Hui is already nearly sixty years old, at such an age, he has already withdrawn from the front line, and now what he has done is to safely transition the old Suiren army into the Yunmeng Army of Daqin, as for leading the troops to fight, there are already a lot of talents emerging among the younger generations, and Ji Hunt, who was born anywhere, is up to the task.
Therefore, Du Hui also handed over all the affairs of Yunmengjun to Ji Jia to take charge of himself, and as for himself, he slowly withdrew from the battlefield.
But he didn't expect that Gongziyan's order made Du Hui busy again.
Forming a water army?! 〗
Du Hui talked about the ins and outs of this matter, and finally understood the intention of His Royal Highness Gongzi Yan, who originally wanted to organize an army to guard the water, or rather, to turn the dividing line between Great Qin and other countries for his own use!
After all, there are many low-lying lands on both sides of the river, and it is also predictable that hundreds of miles of water will be turned into water when there is a flood in summer.
But...... Du Hui's expression was a little complicated, and the reason was that it was stated in the order that the name of the naval army formed this time was [Han Water Army], and the middle and lower Jiangling of the Han Water Army was selected from the Yunmeng Army, and as for the ordinary soldiers, they were selected from the prisoners of the original Northern King Army.
Prisoners of the Northern Kings......
A casual old follower, when he heard about something related to the [Beiwang Army], he was afraid that he gritted his teeth with hatred, and he didn't know how many old followers died in the hands of these Beiwang soldiers in the past, and he was also plagued by the Beiwang Army and has not yet recovered his vitality!
Du Hui, as the general of the old entourage, was naturally disgusted as a prisoner of the Northern Wang Army.
However, the military order is like a mountain, especially Gongzi Yan, who is the benefactor of the old Suiren, Du Hui has to follow, and the current expression returns to normal, that is, Ji Hunt and Hu Yi Oyster and other Yunmengjun Jiangling are recruited to their residences, and the matter is made clear to them.
Ji Zhan raised his head and looked at Du Hui and asked, "Father-in-law means that His Highness wants to take prisoners from the Northern King's Army?" ”
Du Hui nodded, so that the old people on the other side were also different.
Du Hui sensed the subtle atmosphere in the tent, and also looked at Ji Hunt and asked, "Hunter, what do you mean?" ”
"The military order is like a mountain, and I have to obey!" Ji Zhan said lightly, but then looked at the others in the camp again, and said: "Actually, there is no need to be guilty, after all, they are prisoners of Great Qin this time, and they are also subject to the control of our old followers, His Royal Highness has heard of the trade of slaves with Jing State, since these former soldiers of the Northern King are slaves, and their father-in-law governs the army very strictly, what if they are more strict?" ”
When Hu Yan heard this, he also smiled and said, "What the young general said is very true!" ”
The other generals in the camp also nodded with a smile, even if Du Hui heard this, he squeezed out a few wrinkles, and said: "What Hunter said is extremely true, whether it is for the grievances and grievances of the old Suiren and the red-headed ghosts, or for the sake of Daqin, a certain must be extremely strict with them!" ”
Ji Zhan said again: "Father-in-law, Your Highness entrusts you with the training of the Han Water Army, this is an army that focuses on the Water Army, why don't you select some people with excellent water nature from the Yunmeng Army and bring them to the Han Water Army, how about it?" ”
"Well, that's a good idea!" Du Hui nodded, and then said: "Hunt Er, after a certain departure, this Yunmengjun will be handed over to you, don't guard against arrogance and rashness, don't be reckless, bury a good old man!" ”
"Whoa!" Ji Jia stood up and said with a fist at Du Hui.
"A certain natural assistant to the young general to govern the Yunmeng Army!" Hu Rong Oyster and other generals also stood up and hugged their fists at Du Hui.
Du Hui nodded, and instructed again: "The old pain lies in the lax armament, the soldiers are not in order, it seems that there will be a war between Daqin and Jingguo, if you don't want to repeat the mistakes of the old one, you wait for the good training of the army, don't relax!" ”
"Whoa!" The generals spoke in unison.
Du Hui finished instructing one by one, and in the end, he even left Ji Hunt and Hu Yi Oyster, saying that the matter of employing people in the army was not until half an hour later, and then he gave up, and at that time, hundreds of water-based experts had been selected in the army, and at that moment Du Hui was accompanied by several old soldiers, and rushed to Wulin, where Daqin set up the garrison camp of the Han Water Army.
When it was about to get dark, Lin Yuyan received the news that Du Hui led some men and horses to Wulin.
"Surprisingly fast ......"
Lin Yuyan expected that the news of Du Hui's trip to Wulin should arrive in three days, but he didn't expect that the transfer order had just been sent to the garrison camp of the Yunmeng Army in Chubei early this morning, and in the evening, he received the news that Du Hui led his headquarters to Wulin, and the time for hesitation must not be much.
The hatred between the Northern Wangjun and the old followers is not small, the hatred of the country and the destruction of the family!
Lin Yuyan sighed, he didn't want to use the Northern Wang Army to puncture the nerves of Du Hui's old followers, especially Du Hui was already nearly sixty years old, but there was no one available at hand, so he had to ask this old general who was nearly sixty years old to form the Han Water Army.
"Your Highness."
Lin Yuyan turned around, it was Jing Yi.
"Lord Ming of Nanjun has already sent a letter." As he spoke, Jing Yi handed Lin Yuyan a letter.
After opening it and taking a closer look, Lin Yuyan slowly spoke: "Inform Huang Quan, let's take time to meet this Master Ming Gong in the near future!" ”
Jing Yi frowned and said, "Could it be that Lord Ming Gong used water to threaten His Highness?!" ”
Lin Yuyan shook his head, handed Ming Zifu's letter to Jing Yi, and said: "No, on the contrary, it is still surprisingly cooperative, Ming Gong is a smart person, it seems to be an understatement, but it makes people have to care, I can only say that Jiangxia Commercial Bank is too ruthless in Nanjun, so that this Ming Gong can no longer sit still!" ”
When Jing Yi heard this, he glanced at the letter written by Ming Zifu, and couldn't help but smile, this Lord Ming didn't seem to have talked much about Jiangxia Commercial Bank, but between the lines, it was already explaining that Jiangxia Commercial Bank's actions had touched the bottom limit that Ming Zifu could accept.
"Inform Ji Liang, tomorrow is to send the slaves traded by the Jiangxia County Government to the banks of the river, dredge the river, and make sure that a waterway can be cleared for Daqin's ships to pass through this winter!"
Lin Yuyan's voice reached Jing Yi's ears, and the latter also nodded in response.
