Chapter Seventy-Five: The Storm of Recruitment (3)

A day later, the total number of people who signed up for the army was less than 500.

"Even if a lot of people don't want to be soldiers, aren't there only so few people?" Song Yu said suspiciously.

Among the 300,000 people who came this time, one-third were young and middle-aged, and even if most of them did not want to be soldiers, there should not be only 500 people.

"This ......" Zhong Yunlong didn't know whether to tell the truth or not.

But in this situation, Zhong Yunlong still gritted his teeth and said, "Commander, in fact, many people are willing to join the army. It's just that these young people are listening to the orders of some of the elders. Those people ordered them not to join the army, and they couldn't change that reality. ”

"Why are these people doing this?" Song Yu said puzzled.

Since these people have come to themselves, they are like grasshoppers on the same rope with themselves.

If they can't recruit enough soldiers, the battle is likely to fail, and they will not be unclear about the final consequences. Then they still refuse to join the army when they are funny?

"It's mainly Wu Hailong of Wucheng. I took a closer look and realized that this person's background was terrifying. He used to be a high-ranking member of the East China Sea Kingdom, and his third son also served in the army of New West Asia, and when New West Asia had an accident, he was a battalion commander. Now the soldiers he led were all among those people in Wucheng. These people are all elite soldiers, and Wu Hailong didn't know where to buy some muskets to equip them, these soldiers are very strong. If we are attacked by the East China Sea Country, something will happen. They have absolutely no problem fleeing in the chaos. Zhong Yunlong analyzed the general and said concisely.

"This is what our new West Asia used to be?" Song Yu smiled coldly.

Zhong Yunlong chuckled and shook his head.

Song Yu also sat down again and pondered, an elite force like Wu Cheng is very powerful in self-preservation?

Song Yu sneered.

"When the Donghai people attacked, they deliberately let go of an opening and let these Donghai people go to Wucheng to open meat." Song Yu smiled fiercely.

"This ...... These are our compatriots, even these people from Wucheng......"

"Even if these people from Wucheng don't obey our orders, do they?" Song Yu sneered.

"Wu Cheng's power is very strong, and I have heard that some people are also waiting to see the decisions made by Wu Cheng. If Wu Cheng doesn't make a decision, will the rest of the people agree to join the army? There are not enough troops, how will we go in the next battle. At that time, how many of these people who came over would be able to survive without the protection of our soldiers? Song Yu smiled disdainfully, "Now it's just to let them know the cruelty of the East China Sea, you don't have to worry about anything." ”

"Yes......" Song Yu said a lot.

These people just don't clean up, and they don't know how to be obedient if they don't clean up.

These people in Wucheng are all old fritters, maximizing their own interests, this is indeed the law of survival in troubled times.

But Song Yu didn't want Wucheng's people to continue to be so powerful, he needed enough troops!

"What do the others say?" Song Yu pursed her lips and asked with a smile.

"Most of the soldiers who signed up to join the army were some who really couldn't survive. At the beginning, we didn't expect to be able to have so many compatriots come over, so we didn't buy much food, and now we need to re-contact Zhang Shan to buy food. Zhong Yunlong thought for a while and said.

Song Yu nodded, after Zhang Shan escorted the people with him a few days ago, he didn't leave, but watched the training of Song Yu's troops, wanting to make his troops more combative.

"He's very certified now. What Instructor Long Yi teaches is simply what people in our area must learn. It's a pity that no one has been able to teach it until now. Zhang Shan cherishes this opportunity to learn. Zhong Yunlong said.

Song Yu was stunned for a moment, then laughed leisurely, "Tell Long Yi that if necessary, you can take Zhang Shan's troops to help us fight." Since they stay here to study, they can't waste their efforts. ”

"Isn't that bad?" Zhong Yunlong looked at Song Yu puzzled.

"What's so bad!" Song Yu waved his hand, "It's okay." I'm not going to let his troops be cannon fodder or anything, maybe I'll have to use some of his troops, but there won't be any big losses. ”

"The five hundred soldiers you have recruited, you can train together first. I'll figure out the rest. Song Yu said.

Orders are dead, people are alive, and there will always be a solution.

"Yes!"

After Zhong Yunlong left, Song Yu fell into deep thought alone.

But after thinking about it for a long time, I didn't think of any way to fundamentally solve the source of soldiers, it was all Wu Hailong, an old man, just stop his youngest son from becoming a soldier, why stop the people in the city?

"This Wu Hailong. Don't want to join the army, but also want to get a settlement of the people before Wucheng? How can there be such a good thing in the world? Song Yu smiled angrily in his heart.

Wait a minute.

Song Yu's angry emotions had not yet fully condensed, and he suddenly noticed something. Wu Cheng.

This Wu Hailong and they also need to come here, and they are not without desires.

He wants to get a 'Wu City' again?!

In other words, there is nothing wrong with the idea of one's own inducement, but the inducement is in the wrong direction.

What is needed is the city, it is the land.

After figuring out this problem, Song Yu did not immediately go to the people in Wucheng, but found a village in Wucheng that was much smaller.
