Liu Ji led the team to the border of Qianzhou, and left the boundary of Qi County in the evening of the same day, and entered the neighboring Jue County, and the route Liu Ji chose was the same as the road he came to Qi County. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

After entering the county, Liu Ji ordered to camp in a leeward col in the deserted suburbs, but Liu Ji didn't even have a tent in his hand, so he could only let his subordinates sleep in the open.

During the daytime march, even though there were five generals, Hua Xiong, Le Yi, Liu Pi, Gong Du and You Tong, who rode war horses back and forth in the entire team, more than 30 people still fled when the team passed through a forest.

And after this night in the mountain pass, there were more than 60 soldiers under Liu Ji's command all of a sudden, and if it weren't for the Huaxiong generals taking turns to keep vigil, the number of people who escaped would have been even greater.

Many of these soldiers who were put together by various Haoqiang families in Qi County were temporarily brought by various Haoqiang families, many of them were victims of the disaster in Anhui Prefecture, and some were local down-and-out households in Qi County, and they went to the border of Qianzhou completely out of their own volition, and they were forced, and no one was really willing to go to the border of Qianzhou to die.

For some soldiers who escaped and were captured by several generals, Liu Ji did not use the deterrent means of killing one by one, so that several generals put these soldiers back into the team.

At dinner in the morning, Le Yi suggested to Liu Ji: "Lord, it's better to reorganize and train the remaining soldiers here, and then continue on the road, otherwise if the soldiers continue to flee like this, the morale of the army will remain unstable, and there may not be many people left in a few days!" ”

Liu Ji nodded approvingly and said: "Then we will stay here for a few days, anyway, there is plenty of time along the way, but before the rectification of training, I want to say a few words to all the soldiers, the twisted melon is not sweet, and if you don't want to follow me Liu Ji sincerely, I won't force it!" ”

Le Yi hesitated for a moment and said: "Lord, if we let these soldiers stay, maybe we won't have many people left in the end, it is better to restrain them with military discipline, and then there are escapees to correct the law on the spot." ”

Liu Ji actually knew that Le Yi's method was the most reasonable, but Liu Ji still insisted on his previous decision, his current mentality was affected by the previous life, and he was not willing to get too much blood, especially for these soldiers who were barely his own people.

Soon more than 700 soldiers from various powerful families in Qi County gathered together in front of Liu Ji, and Liu Ji stood on a large stone half a meter high, so that more than 700 soldiers could see their nominal captain.

"My name is Liu Ji, and I am the official commander of Qi County appointed by the imperial court, and I am also your superior! I know that almost all of you are not willing to go to Qianzhou to defend the border, and neither am I! ”

After Liu Ji said this, more than 700 people below immediately discussed, it turned out that this young captain, like these soldiers, was also forced.

Liu Ji continued to shout loudly: "Although I, Liu Ji, am not willing to go to Qianzhou to defend the border, but now that this matter has fallen on my head, I can only go to Qianzhou hard, otherwise my family will be implicated, I believe that many of you have not escaped, but you are also worried that your family will be implicated." ”

The more than 700 people below suddenly showed a gloomy color, many of the people here are natives of Qi County, they have received a warning before joining this border team, if anyone dares to run away halfway, their families staying in Qi County will definitely be connected, and the powerful families in Qi County will not let go of the families of the escapees.

In addition, the powerful families in Qi County also collected a lot of victims to join the border team, and if these victims had families, they were also left behind in Qi County, and they also received the same warning before they set off.

Of course, there are also people who don't care about the safety of their families for their own lives, and those who have fled are locals whose families are in Qi County, or disaster victims whose families stay in Qi County.

"It can be said that we are all people with the same fate, so I Liu Ji will give you a chance to choose today! If you are willing to go to Qianzhou with me Liu Ji to kill the Hu people and use your life to fight for the rich and noble, then stand on the right! If you don't want to go to Qianzhou, just go to the left and stand, I, Liu Ji, am not reluctant to these brothers, I will distribute 10 catties of rice, let these brothers leave, and I will not report the brothers who left to the families in Qi County, but for the lives of these brothers and their families, I advise these brothers to stay away from Qi County and stay incognito! ”

Liu Ji's words suddenly made more than 700 people below fry, "What! Can this lieutenant really let us go? ”

"And such a good thing? If you leave, you still have 10 catties of rice to take? ”

"Don't look at the age of this Captain Liu, it's very particular, anyway, our brothers don't have a place to go, it's better to follow Captain Liu to Qianzhou to kill a few Hu people, even after he dies, when he goes underground, he won't insult his ancestors!"

"It's best not to go to Qianzhou, I heard that the Hu people have choked enough scourge of the four northern states, and there is no difference between going to Qianzhou to defend the border and sending them to death!"

"Yes! It's better to die than to live, it's all gone, what's the use of the rest! ”

"My family has stayed in Qi County, where can I go? Ugh—"

Liu Ji plans to directly remove those who want to escape from the team, so the rest of the people are reluctant to go to Qianzhou to defend the border, but at least they should not take the initiative to run away, they have reasons to have to go to Qianzhou, such as for their families, just like themselves.

In this way, he can train the rest of the people, and I believe that a general like Le Yi, who has a command value of 91 points, will definitely be able to train a group of elite soldiers for himself.

Even if he only has 100 elite soldiers in his hands, it is many times stronger than having 800 rabble, as for the official document requiring that he must bring 500 people to Chengyin County, Qianzhou, Liu Ji is not worried, there are at least hundreds of miles to Chengyin County, there are too many opportunities to recruit soldiers, in Wanzhou, which has been in drought for three consecutive years, as long as there is food in hand, you can recruit as many young and strong men as you want.

In the end, Liu Ji saw the number of people standing on the right, his face couldn't help twitching, and of the remaining 700 people, only less than 200 people stood on the right, willing to follow Liu Ji to the border of Qianzhou, and the other more than 500 people chose to leave.

Although Liu Ji was a little depressed, after all, there were too few people left, but Liu Ji still waved his hand and ordered several generals to help distribute food, and everyone who left gave 10 catties of rice.

To Liu Ji's surprise, the 22 soldiers who had chosen to leave before changed their minds when they saw Liu Jizhen handing out rice to the soldiers who left, and chose to stay instead of the 10 catties of rice.

In the end, Liu Jiyi counted that a total of 218 people were willing to follow him to Qianzhou to defend the border, the situation was not too bad, at least he didn't need to worry about the soldiers under his command in the future, and there would be a large-scale escape.

Liu Ji selected 150 young and strong men with good physical fitness from 218 people to form the first army under his complete control, and directly handed over these 150 young and strong men to Le Yi for training, and also sent Cheng Yi, You Tong, Liu Pi and Gong to Le Yi as deputies.

As for Hua Xiong and Chen Hao, Liu Ji was left by his side as bodyguards, after all, Liu Ji's force value was only 17 points, and any person could take Liu Ji's life, and it would be safer to keep Hua Xiong and Chen Hao by his side.

The carriage in which Liu Ji and his twin sisters were riding, the coachman directly became Chen Hao.

The remaining 68 men became auxiliaries, and the remaining 43 men, except for the 25 who temporarily served as coachmen, became men and handymen.

In the next few days, Liu Ji and his team stayed in this mountain pass, letting Le Yi and others train the 150 soldiers, and Liu Ji himself followed Hua Xiong to learn martial arts and exercise his physique.

The system said that if Liu Ji's realistic martial arts did not progress, then maybe the force points he received in the future might be wasted.

It's a shame to waste, and Liu Ji definitely doesn't want to see that kind of situation happen.
