Chapter 468 There is a general whose name is evil

"How many people are you talking about?"

300,000 is a huge number, and some people can be large or small. If it is the number of dozens or hundreds of people, I believe that Chu Hui does not have to be like this.

Sure enough, Chu Hui's face was embarrassed, and he replied: "Ten thousand and three hundred and thirteen people." ”

"......" Chen Baichuan was silent for a quarter of an hour, as if he was being galloped by 10,000 *** horses in his heart. The inner grassland that I stepped on was full of messes and fell into chaos.

"General, in fact, this number is not unacceptable...... You see, our Chen country is not in a state of labor shortage, and it is difficult for the country's fresh blood to be replenished into the army, with these people joining the ......"

With the addition of these people, Chen Guo will be able to successfully fall into a new round of crisis. How to use the people's livelihood, which can only barely support military expenditures, to support the doubling of the number of troops will be an important topic for future historians to think of the issue of the demise of the Chen State. Chen Baichuan looked at Chu Hui's eyes, as if looking down on a mentally retarded person.

Chu Hui had a thick red neck, obviously he had only learned Chen Baichuan's fur in terms of tongue, and he replied with difficulty: "It's not that a large amount of money and grain has been seized in Qingdu, and the original Qingguo army itself is also armed ......"

"You mean to let them carry traditional cold weapons and face the advanced firearms that Daheng may have with us? And what kind of thing is the Qingguo soldiers eating, in the end, it is not for Chen Guo to provide eggs and meat. Chen Baichuan interrupted him ruthlessly.

Chu Hui's heart was crossed, and he understood that there was only one move left at the moment, so he immediately played the scoundrel: "Anyway, something has happened, if I don't have no way, I don't dare to trouble the general." ”

"Wait, let me finish my catharsis."

“……”

"Even if you don't consider whether Chen Guo can support twice as much military strength, Yuan Qingguo's soldiers are always on the verge of collapse in the battle against us, and they can't be called qualified troops at all. Before their backbone Liu Tingfeng died, they still had the ability to fight, but now? ”

“……”

"The physical fitness of the former Qingguo soldiers is even more of a mess, and before there is no scientific training, they will not be able to join the combat missions we have formulated for the Chen soldiers at all."

"......" found that Chen Baichuan had fallen into a long silence again, and Chu Hui asked timidly: "If the general finishes speaking......

Chen Baichuan said angrily: "Go, follow me to the prisoner camp and see those soldiers." ”

………………

The number of soldiers captured in Gyeongdu was as high as 20,000, and a fire in the city made the housing in Gyeongdu even more strained. So their camp was arranged outside the city, supervised by the army of Chen.

After a long time, Chen Baichuan should have put them back home. However, thinking that the excavation of the Chenqing River would require a lot of labor in the next few days, all the captive soldiers' requests to go home were perfunctory with the sentence "The current affairs are complicated, please come back in a few days".

Although the soldiers' requests to go home were like snowflakes, piling up Chen Baichuan's boards, General Chen still kept them ruthlessly.

Walking in the camp of 300,000 people, Chen Baichuan was also a little weak, he threw the pot of "busy affairs" to Chu Hui in time, but it was difficult to ensure that the people in the camp hated him as the black hand behind the scenes.

Guarded by a long line of soldiers, he walked through the white tents.

10,000 and 13 people is a huge number, Chen Baichuan can't visit them one by one, he summoned these 10,000 people on the training ground.

Chu Hui was already in the training ground, he saw Chen Baichuan's figure, and said to Yuan Qingguo's captives: "I haven't seen the general yet." ”

Then, no one in the field paid any attention to him.

Chen Baichuan was not angry, stood in front of ten thousand people, and asked: "I know that you want to join the Chen army, you elect a person who can represent you, I have a few questions to ask, if you are qualified, I will allow you." ”

"Really?"

"You are a great general, so you can't lie to us like that General Chu."

"Who's going to represent it?"

“……”

After a quarter of an hour of noisy voices, they finally chose a swarthy middle-aged man.

The man came to Chen Baichuan, gave a military salute to celebrate the country, and said: "The last general will be the vanguard general of the Qingguo Capital Army, Lu Ying." ”

Lu Ying knelt on the ground for a long time, but he couldn't get Chen Baichuan's order to get him up. The rules in the army are as big as a mountain, and Lu Ying didn't dare to be reckless, so he had to look at Chu Hui, who was the only one he had contact with, for help.

Chu Hui also knew a little about this Lu Ying, so he had to open his mouth to rescue: "Lu Ying, there is no Qingguo now, and there is no Qingdu Army. ”

made a sudden realization, the defeated army has no human rights, Lu Ying saluted again, and said: "The crime will be Lu Ying, the vanguard general of the former Qing National Day Army, who has seen the general." ”

Chen Baichuan smiled at this time: "General Lu Ying, you get up." ”

It's not that he deliberately makes it difficult, but the original Qingguo is deeply rooted in this land, if he can't do it from all aspects, sooner or later this land will rekindle the flame of Qingguo.

Lu Ying then stood up and stood one meter away in front of Chen Baichuan with a respectful face.

Qingguo is finished, and he, the vanguard general, is also a prisoner-like figure. Lu Ying is not a person who reads poetry and books, but he is a clever person, and he knows that he should be respectful in this situation.

Chen Baichuan said: "I have a few questions to ask you, you have to answer them carefully and seriously, every word you say is related to whether you can join the Chen army." ”

When Lu Ying heard the end, a drop of cold sweat couldn't help but appear on his forehead, and the fate of 10,000 people was full of pressure for him. He smiled bitterly and said, "Sin will do everything he can." ”

After speaking, he clasped his fists and saluted the ten thousand brothers behind him.

Chen Baichuan asked in a deep voice: "Let me ask you, more than 10,000 of you can't muster the courage to fight in front of the army of Chen Guo, and in the end, you will have to pay the price of your life for His Majesty King Qing." As a soldier, this is already a great shame, why do you still have the courage to say that you want to join the army of Chen Guo. ”

The first question was already very heart-wrenching, and Lu Ying's clothes were already soaked under Chen Baichuan's voice questioning.

He was silent for a long time before he spoke: "General, we didn't dare to resist when we were in Qingdu, because King Qing didn't give us a chance to resist. Most of the courtiers in the court thought that there should be no war, and although I fought with all my might, I still could not reverse His Majesty's will. As soldiers, our talent is to obey orders, and His Majesty King Qing did not give the order to attack, even if we watched him die, we could not fight. One can only watch him die. ”
