Chapter 22: General Yu
The three dock forts in Beigou Yuan, the Han family is the strongest, and the Wen family has the longest inheritance. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 But at this moment, outside Murong Ling's big tent, the twenty-six Wubao of Beigou Yuan all acquiesced to Li Cheng's position as the leader.
Because there is only the Li family, the direct sons-in-law of the dock master, the leaders of the Wen family and the Han family, are all old men in their fifties and sixties.
In the troubled times, in the dock fort, even the dock master lineage, while getting benefits, must also take responsibility. For example, if there is an abandoned pawn, there must be an abandoned son - Wen and Han, the two old men, are both members of the clan, and they have been doing nothing for most of their lives, and now they must make some contributions.
"Uhhh
A low trumpet sounded from the tent, and the Xianbei guards who were originally standing around with guns suddenly stood sideways with their guns, stabbing hard in the direction of all the Han generals present, and shouted at the same time!
The powerful generals who had been confiscated in front of the tent immediately shrank together in panic.
Although the tip of the spear was still far away from them, although they also felt that Murong Ling would not really do this.
This is the courage of the so-called "heroes".
Li Cheng smiled coldly, unmoved, just staring at the big tent curtain.
The curtain was lifted, and the two guards quickly stepped forward to occupy both sides, supporting the curtain; A tall and slender young man dressed in ordinary and humble clothes bent his head slightly and walked out of the big tent.
When he looked up, his eyes swept over everyone, and when he saw everyone's reactions and expressions, he couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth slightly, as if everything was under his control.
Striding forward a few steps forward, the young man raised his hand proudly, and the spears of the Xianbei guards were quickly withdrawn.
"I am Murong Ling, the general of Dayan Pingdong, and I think you have seen it in the past few days."
Murong Ling stood with his hands in his hands, his chin raised slightly, and it seemed that his gaze had completely passed over the hundreds of powerful generals in front of him, and threw him into the distant sky, and suddenly snorted angrily:
"I am ordered by Your Majesty to lead the army of the North Road to conquer Goguryeo, how important! However, you waited for the Han soldiers, and traveled in three days, but it was worth fifty miles! With such a speed of marching, is it because he is slacking off and does not want to contribute? ”
The generals looked at each other, but no one dared to say a word.
Not to mention that these generals are all scattered, and there is no one who can represent them to speak with full powers; Let's just say that the march is slow...... God knows how much effort they have put into urging these abandoned soldiers to come fifty miles!
"Hmph, that's fine. You Han people have a saying, saying that the hustle and bustle of the world is all for profit, and the hustle and bustle of the world is for profit. In that case, I hereby make a reward......"
Murong Ling smiled arrogantly, and slowly spoke: "Forty thousand Han soldiers, no matter who is in charge, no matter what the forces are, as long as I can lead the army to the right Beiping County within seven days, Xu Wucheng, I will ask the court for him, and I can get the post of general!" ”
As soon as this statement came out, everyone was in an uproar!
In the era of Han Hu system, no matter how small the tribal leader is, as long as it is attached, high-ranking officials and lords never hesitate; But now, the power of the Han people, let alone the official position, is fortunate not to be regarded as a thorn in the side of the Hu people.
Those who were sent here were all abandoned by the powerful; And if you follow what Murong Ling said, you have the opportunity to be able to surpass your own powerful family master! This kind of contrast and temptation, even those who consider themselves mediocre, can't help but be moved.
Of course, where there is a reward, there is a punishment, which is the law. On the seventh day, the lord will be given a military position, and the soldiers will be rewarded; Seven days will not be ......"
With a murderous coldness at the corner of his mouth, Murong Ling then said coldly: "Those who don't come, no matter how many, will not be forgiven!" ”
What the!?
The Han generals present, no matter how mediocre and incompetent they are, have lived in this troubled era for a long time, and some common sense is also known. Let's just say that from this place to Xu Wucheng, there are two hundred miles away!
In other words, on average, these old and weak foot soldiers need to walk at least thirty miles every day!
You must know that thirty miles is not just a human walk, but also the grain and grass equipment, the camp tents, and the soldiers' own armor and equipment - thirty miles a day, even if it is an ordinary court foot soldier, if there is no order to hurry, it will be about this speed; And if it is the foot soldiers of the imperial court, carrying heavy grain and grass, and carrying it by their own mules, horses, and people, how can they be compared with saving time and effort?
As soon as they brought their own utensils, they had to travel 30 miles a day, and only the elite soldiers of various countries could meet such a standard -- this means, of course, that they could maintain their combat adaptability at any time between marches, and it was another matter if they were able to abandon their baggage and advance at full speed.
For the dock soldiers, if it doesn't matter if the military form is lost and scattered forward, then the thirty miles of land under the whip military law is not unattainable, but this is the consequence......
"For the position of general, I can promise three people. Each person must lead at least 5,000 people to Xu Wu to obtain it. ”
Murong Ling looked at everyone's different expressions and continued to speak. Only this time, the corners of his mouth turned from coldness to playfulness.
"I have no intention of participating in the affairs of your Han people. The Xianbei knights, who marched with the others, were only responsible for monitoring whether there were any escapees; I, on the other hand, am only responsible for waiting for the result in Xu Wu. What I need in Dayan is a soldier who can fight and dare to fight, not a person who eats and waits for death! ”
"Military food and equipment, I will keep you enough for seven days, and the rest depends on your own ability, hahaha!" Murong Ling laughed a few times, turned around and walked back into the tent.
Leaving a hundred generals, his heart was in turmoil.
Murong Ling, this trick of yours is really ruthless enough!
Li Cheng clenched his fists, pushed aside the crowd first, and quickly walked towards his station. Now, he needs to discuss with Yu Ban and Xiahou Ba how to face the upcoming ...... Cannibalism!
There are more than 100 generals, but there are only three positions of generals, and at least 5,000 troops are needed to obtain them.
This means that the originally loose 40,000 Han soldiers need to have three practical leaders who are authoritative enough.
This is a great opportunity, unless it is given up at the beginning - the dockmen are infantry, but the general and his few guards have horses - if you just want to survive in peace, you can go straight to Xu Wu with horses.
But whoever wants to fight for this position has absolutely no reason to give it to others. And the only way to justifiably obtain the position of General Yu is naturally only strength.
Murong Ling's last sentence was to encourage everyone to fight for this general's opportunity by any means!
and Murong Ling's order not to be killed in seven days, which simply forced everyone to participate in this crazy game. For ordinary dock soldiers, only by following the right general and moving forward desperately can they find a glimmer of life.
What could be more naked than having a sword right on your neck like this?
Just because Xianbei doesn't need mercy!
Their cruelty and oppression of the Han people is, in their opinion, normal; Even in the eyes of the Han people themselves, it is perfectly normal!
Survival of the fittest in battle, stimulating ferocity in battle, even if Xu Wucheng only has half of the Han soldiers, his combat power is much better than it is now.
This is Murong Ling's means.
It only took a moment to coerce and lure, causing everyone to panic, but they had to be willing to join themselves!
Seeing Li Cheng leave quickly, the remaining generals gradually began to come back to their senses. Then they looked at each other's fellow clansmen, and their eyes inadvertently showed vigilance.
And a few generals of big forces have begun to talk and laugh and win over potential comrades-in-arms.
"Old Han, what do you say you can do?"
On the side of Beigouyuan, Wen Qi, the general of the Wen family, rushed to the general of the Han family in a panic, and Han Wencheng asked beside him.
And Han Wencheng, although he is also an outcast, can be regarded as a victim of Hanjiawu's internal struggle, and he is not without ideas.
Gritting his teeth and being silent for a moment, Han Wencheng took Wen Qi's hand and whispered in his ear: "How many times can you have such an opportunity in your life?" There are 10,000 people in our Beigou Plains, which is enough for two generals! ”
Halfway through Han Wencheng's words, he looked up cautiously to make sure that no one was eavesdropping around, and then continued: "I think that Li Jiawu's sister-in-law is afraid that he is a young and vigorous hairy guy, so let's pretend to be the leader of him first and let him come out." And as long as you and I preserve our strength, we can gather the scattered soldiers and make up enough 5,000 people, we can join forces to protect ourselves and walk away! ”
Wen Qi's face changed for a while, and then he asked in a trembling voice, "That...... So let's go and fetch the rest of the Dock Fort first? ”
Han Wencheng nodded and said: "As long as you and I are friendly to the dock fort, the matter has not been done yet, don't go too far, no matter what, let Li Jiawu take the lead!" Lao Wen, you must be ready when you go back, and you will ...... tomorrow I'm afraid I'm going to see blood! ”
