Chapter 1041: The Spirit of the Army

"Chu Huan got a confession?" In the Zhizhou Mansion, Dongfang Xin had a gloomy face, and he stared at Dong Shizhen with a pair of eyes like hunting dogs.

Dong Shizhen shook his head, "It's still uncertain, but since he dares to arrest people, he must have some hole cards." ”

"If there is no real evidence, even if he is the governor, he is not qualified to arrest people indiscriminately." Dongfang Xin sneered: "Gao Lian is also a shrewd person, how could he give birth to such a stupid son?" Chu Huan is scheming here, just waiting for an opportunity, Ben will say many times that before the surname Chu is overturned, there must be no mistakes easily, this time he Chu Huan was not caught by us, but he was caught by him first ...... this side! The more he thought about it, the more annoyed he became, his fist slammed on the table, the teacups on the table overturned, and the tea splashed everywhere, Dong Shizhen sighed: "General Dongfang, don't be angry, since the matter has come to this point, how can it be like a countermeasure." ”

"What can you do?" Dongfang Xin said angrily: "In Chu Huan's hands, even if the Gao family has nothing to do with Tianmen Dao, Chu Huan will also put a hat on his door." The most important thing is that Gao Lian's stupid son can withstand Chu Huan's torture? As long as he confesses, even if the confession is fake, it will become Chu Huan's trump card. ”

Dong Shizhen thought for a while, thought for a while, and then said: "What the general said is that the imperial court regards Tianmen Dao as a thorn in the eye, and then quickly, even if the gentry of Beishan are not involved in the slightest with Tianmen Dao, but as long as Chu Huan gets Gao Huo's confession, even if the imperial court kills a thousand by mistake, it will not let one go." ”

"Lord Dong, Governor Zhu often says that you are wise, what good countermeasures do you have now? Although the gentry of Beishan are a bunch of wretched, we can't live without them now. Dongfang Xin clenched his fists and said: "If Chu Huan really takes this opportunity to get rid of the Beishan gentry, without the suppression of the Beishan gentry, the group of people surnamed Xiguan Qi will definitely get up quickly, but we don't have the help of the Beishan gentry, and it will be very disadvantageous to us." ”

"That's what I thought about too." Dong Shizhen shook his head and sighed: "I came to Gao Lian last night, I didn't sleep all night, I kept thinking about countermeasures, thinking about it, but there was no suitable countermeasure......!" After a pause, he smiled bitterly: "Unless there is a **, there may be a turnaround in this matter, otherwise it ......!" He shook his head, the meaning was obvious, it was powerless.

“**?” Dongfang Xin's body leaned forward slightly, "What**?" ”

Dong Shizhen hesitated for a moment before saying: "The cause of everything is because of Gao Huo, and Gao Huo is now Chu Huan's biggest killer move, in the final analysis, what we are most worried about is that Chu Huan got Gao Huo's fake confession, as long as Gao Huo does not sign the confession, Chu Huan will not be able to take the Beishan gentry." It's just that what the general said just now is extremely true, Gao Huo is pampered, just a gentleman, without the slightest backbone, Chu Huanxiang wants to get a confession from him, it is really not a difficult thing. ”

"And what do you mean?"

"Originally, in a case like this, if Ai Zong hadn't had an accident, he would still be eligible to participate in the trial." Dong Shizhen touched his goatee and said slowly: "It's just that Ai Zong has been dismissed, and even the Criminal Department itself is involved in this case, and now the Criminal Department can't play any role at all...... After a pause, he lowered his voice and said: "Now if you want to make a false confession, unless Gao Huo dies unexpectedly, even if Chu Huan doesn't get a confession now, sooner or later he will be forced to confess." ”

"You mean sending someone to kill Gao Huo?" Dongfang Xin approached Dong Shizhen, "But Gao Huo is locked up in the garrison camp of the Guards, where the Guards are guarded, and it is very difficult to get in, let alone assassination?" He asked softly, "Do you have the right assassin?" ”

Dong Shizhen hurriedly said: "The general said that he was laughing, where do I have an assassin in my hand." ”

Dongfang said: "I don't think you have it, if you have more time, you may not be able to find a suitable assassin ......!" He lowered his voice and said: "There are still some capable people in the hoe hall under Governor Zhu's hands, but the road is far away, even if the assassins are transferred from there, Chu Huan's side may have already succeeded." ”

Dong Shizhen bowed his head and said: "That's true, but I suspect that Chu Huan may have gotten a fake confession, Gao Huo fell into his hands last night, Chu Huan is very shrewd, of course he knows that Gao Huo's greatest value is his confession, and he also knows the truth of long nights and dreams, this morning he sent someone to arrest several representatives of the Beishan gentry, if he didn't get the confession, he might not have such confidence." ”

"Then what you just said, isn't it in vain?" Dongfang Xin leaned back in his chair and said angrily: "If Chu Huan gets the confession, Gao Huo will not matter. Frowning, thinking of something, he shook his head and said, "Not necessarily, if Chu Huan really got a confession, why did he only arrest a few people?" First of all, he should arrest Gao Lian as well. ”

Dong Shizhen smiled faintly and said: "Chu Huan is more cunning than we thought, he didn't do anything to Gao Lian, I'm afraid he has other plans......!" ”

"Figure what?"

"General, don't forget, the gentry of Beishan, but now the largest consortium in Xiguan, their industry is a huge asset." Dong Shizhen said slowly: "If Chu Huan does it easily, with the strength of his hand, he may not be able to beat the Beishan gentry all, the rabbit is in a hurry and bites, if the Beishan gentry perceives that there is no way back, they may not gather people to give it a go, their Zhuang Ding nursing home is not a small number, the most important thing is that once the Beishan gentry make trouble, the matter will inevitably spread, no one can hide it, and the court will also know that it is not difficult to quell the rebellion of the Beishan gentry, but when the time comes, their family property will be confiscated, If the imperial court intervenes, the huge assets will definitely be confiscated by the imperial court and included in the national treasury. ”

Dongfang Xin understood and said, "You mean to say that Chu Huan wants to swallow the property of the Beishan gentry?" He was worried that the imperial court would intervene in it, so he didn't move? ”

"If I'm not mistaken, it should be like this." Dong Shizhen said slowly: "The general should be able to see that although some representatives of the Beishan gentry have been arrested, there are still people in each family who can call the shots, in other words, Chu Huan deliberately did not move those people, and his purpose was very simple, that is, to wait for those people to send money to the door!" ”

"Sending money to the door?" Dongfang Xin sneered: "Does he Chu Huan really have the courage to laugh?" Even if we receive a tael of silver, we get the evidence and immediately impeach the court, but then it will be him who will be unlucky. ”

"It's not that simple." Dong Shizhen shook his head and said, "Chu Huan won't be stupid to that point. ”

Dongfang Xin locked his brows, groaned slightly, and then sneered: "The surname Chu is aggressive, if you force Lao Tzu, Lao Tzu will ......!" With a fierce light in his eyes and a killing in his eyes, Dong Shizhen saw it from the side, and remained silent, but said softly: "General, don't be annoyed, let's not respond to all changes, and see what tricks Chu Huan still has to play." ”

Chu Huan was indeed playing tricks, but at this time, he was not playing tricks on Gao Huo's case, in the small hall of the Governor's Mansion, Chu Huan was sharing lunch with Pei Ji.

When Chu Huan returned to the Governor's Mansion, Wang Han had already left with the team, and the wolf baby took a few people to Yunshan Mansion together, with a simple purpose, to take Linlang to the northwest safely.

Qin Lei faxed a short-sleeved single gown, revealing two swarthy arms, his arms were not thick, but every inch of skin seemed to contain infinite strength, and the dark arms were glowing with a burst of oil full of strength.

At this time, he was holding a large bowl in his hand, and he was drinking porridge with wild vegetables.

The diet of the Governor's Mansion has changed, and Su Niang has changed the diet of the Governor's Mansion in accordance with Chu Huan's instructions.

"Big brother is saying that the first batch of conscription will only recruit 800 people?" Chu Huan looked at Pei Ji and said, "A lot of silver has been injected into the New Salt Bureau, and two or three thousand people have been recruited, which should be maintained." ”

"It's not more, it's fine." Pei Ji said solemnly: "Second brother, do you know what is the most important thing in an army? ”

Chu Huan stared at Pei Ji and did not speak.

"It's the spirit of the army." Pei Jizheng said: "And the military soul of an army is usually formed at the very beginning of the establishment, the first batch of 800 people to be recruited, must be after strict screening, the selection of 800 people, the most important task, is to form the military soul, as long as there is a military soul, then in the future expansion of the army, the military soul will start from these 800 people, infiltrate every soldier of the army." ”

"The spirit of the army?" Chu Huan was thoughtful.

Pei Ji explained: "The reason is very simple, as the saying goes, those who are close to Zhu are red, and those who are close to ink are black, this first batch of 800 people recruited is just like a well that we take the lead in drilling, they are the water in the well, and the soldiers who will expand the army in the future will add water to this well, if this well is clear and sweet water at the beginning, then the water injected later will also become clear, but if the well is rotten water at the beginning, then even if it is clear water added later, it will become rancid." ”

Chu Huan understood something, and said: "Big brother is saying that eight hundred people will take the lead in receiving training to form a set of laws and disciplines, and when the later soldiers join, they can be influenced by veterans?" ”

"That's what it means." Pei Ji nodded and said: "The people of the Northwest are already brave, and their physique is stronger than the people in the Guannei, we choose from a strict one, eliminate a batch, and those who can be selected should not have any problems with their bodies, and then after training, there are those who can't bear it, and they will be eliminated immediately, and so on, those who remain must be the elite elite, and with this army as the foundation, it is like laying a rock-solid foundation." ”

"Has Big Brother already thought about how to train?" Chu Huan asked.

"It's about the same." Pei Ji bowed slightly, "The second brother still has two hundred guards in his hands, these are the most rigorous training, one in a hundred, and the training methods of the guards can be applied to the newly formed Governor's Praetorian Guard." ”

Chu Huan nodded, thought for a while, and suddenly smiled: "Big brother, when it comes to training, I think of some better training methods, if you can pass these trainings, you will definitely become an elite soldier......!" ”

"What training method?"

Chu Huan dipped his fingers in tea and wrote a line on the table, Pei Ji glanced at it and read in a low voice: "Special training method!" ”
