Chapter 319: Recruiting the Army

Ye Chen was silent in his seat for a long time, and finally spoke: "Forget it, let them go for the time being." Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info"

As soon as these words came out, not only Wan Yu, but also Wen Zhong was stunned for a moment, in his impression, Ye Chen has always been a decisive person, and he only acts right and wrong, not looking at the consequences, but he didn't expect to hesitate now.

"Ye Lao... No, Lord Prefect, this group of people is so sinful, why do you want to let them go, what if this group of people does not repent and continues to make mistakes? Wan Yu just wanted to call Ye Chenye brother, but later saw that there was still someone next to him, so he changed his mouth to the prefect.

Ye Chen smiled bitterly and said, "Yes, they should indeed be killed, but have you ever thought about what to do after killing?" ”

Wan Yu scratched his head and said, "Lord Prefect, don't ask me about this, you also know that I don't know much about these things." ”

Wen Zhong thought for a while and said: "My lord, as far as I know, if they are brought to justice, then the new officials have two choices, one is that you personally recommend people with meritorious names to be reviewed by the officials, and the other is to report to the imperial court and let the officials send people down to take up posts." ”

"Yes, that's true, but although I am the prefect of Lin'an City, I have just entered the officialdom, and unlike others, I have taken a shortcut, so naturally I don't know anyone I trust, and Li Zhou, the secretary of the ministry, has always thought that I killed his grandson, and sent someone to kill me when I came back, do you think he won't take the opportunity to retaliate against me?" Ye Chen said slowly.

"What the adults said is extremely true, but I was negligent, but now that we have found the evidence, do we just ignore them?" Wen Zhongdao.

"It's not okay to ignore nature, but don't worry too much about them, since they have opened a warehouse to release grain before I arrived this time, they must be afraid of me, just need to mention it a little, if they still don't repent, then don't tell me, just take it." Ye Chen replied.

"Your Excellency is wise, then I will retire to deal with this matter first, and if there is any need in the future, just send someone to find me." Wen Zhong said.

After Wen Zhong left, only Wan Yu and Ye Chen were left in the house, and Wan Yu was no longer restrained, and walked to Ye Chen's side and said curiously: "Brother Ye, don't they all say that the Supervision Yuan is not controlled by local officials, why do I think this Wen Zhong is obedient to you?" ”

"It should be the third prince's order, and it's no secret that their father and son take good care of me in the capital, and it's not surprising that his subordinates are courting me now." Ye Chen smiled and asked, "Brother Wan, are you satisfied with letting you be the capital recently, I heard that you have a high reputation in Lin'an Mansion recently?" ”

Wan Yu became excited as soon as he heard this, and said: "Naturally satisfied, but when will you give me some people, you see that Zhongli is the same as me, but there are three or four thousand people under them, and I am Hu Guang and Yang Zhi, and they can't find anyone all day long." ”

"Brother Wan, what you said is not right, you may not know, although you and Zhongli are both unified, you are very different." Ye Chen replied.

"What's the difference, aren't they all all the same, but Brother Ye, can't you really give me a little bit of Zhongli's people, so that I can also have a little bit." Wan Yu rubbed his hands and laughed.

Ye Chen only remembered when he saw Wan Yu's appearance, the current Wan Yu is only an eighteen or nineteen-year-old child, and it is when his heart is higher than the sky and he yearns for his future achievements.

Now he is only allowed to be a metropolitan commander, but there is no one under him, no wonder he is so anxious.

"Well, I'll explain it to you, and then I'll give you two options, and you decide for yourself?" Ye Chen said.

"No problem, as long as I can lead the troops to fight, I can do anything!" Wan Yu Dao.

"Although Zhongli is the commander of the capital, he is an official appointed by the imperial court and the ministry, and all he has can only be government soldiers, and you should also know that the combat effectiveness of the government soldiers in Lin'an City is not even one-tenth of that of ordinary defenders."

"But you're different, you're a member of the Ministry of War, so you can have the army of Lin'an City, now the people of Lin'an Mansion are idle and have nothing to do at home, if you can take the opportunity to recruit a group of people, as long as you are well trained, you will definitely be much more powerful than this group of soldiers in the future, of course, if you don't want to trouble, I can also give you half of the soldiers." Ye Chen explained.

"I see." Wan Yu suddenly realized, and hurriedly said: "Since this is the case, then I will definitely choose the latter, so that if Fang Guoqiang dares to go against us again, I will directly lead someone to destroy him and let him get killed." ”

Ye Chen looked at Wan Yu, who was full of longing for the future, smiled, and said, "Since it has been decided, then Brother Wan, you should go to Zhongli now, he has experience in these things, and the military department is a general, so now that the grain and grass have arrived, you just have to do it." ”

"Then I'll go first, if you have something to call me." Wan Yu smiled, and then hurriedly ran out, eager to immediately lead the army to be majestic.

Ye Chen didn't stop him and let Wan Yu leave, because it was all in his plan.

When he arrived in Xiazhou, the Ministry of War was already in the hands of Wang Zhitian's people, although the Fang family had been extremely powerful in the Ministry of War for so many years, but because of the help of the Supervision Yuan, most of the resources of the Ministry of War had now been mastered by Wang Zhitian.

Moreover, Linzhou is the station of the Wang family's army, and Xiazhou is an important checkpoint leading to Linzhou, so it is allowed to recruit soldiers and horses, Fang Guoqiang is a typical example, Ye Chen will naturally not let go of such a good opportunity.

It's just that there are too many people staring at Lin'an City now, and Emperor Qi, the Fang family, and the Liu family are all monitoring his every move.

So even if Ye Chen had a lot of plans in his heart, he didn't implement them, and just let Wan Yu recruit people on his own.

In this way, those who monitor him will inevitably let their guard down, and he can just take this opportunity to recruit in private.

In particular, Lin'an Mansion is surrounded by several mansions that surround him, and there are some places that go straight to Junshan.

Ye Chen believed that as long as he hid all the people in Junshan for training and had enough food and grass, he would definitely be able to create an invincible iron horse that could dominate in the era of cold weapons.

Of course, all this is premised on him having enough time.

And although Ye Chen is optimistic about Wan Yu, Wan Yu is only a young rich young master after all, and he has no experience, let alone forming an army by himself.

So Ye Chen did this, firstly, to let his enemies relax their vigilance against him, thinking that Ye Chen had given up on himself, and now he was just fooling around.

The second nature is to let Wan Yu hone his mood and increase his experience and experience, which can not only help Wan Yu realize his wishes, but also allow Wan Yu to help him to the greatest extent.

However, just as Ye Chen was thinking, a resentful voice came: "Bad brother, what you say doesn't count." (To be continued.) )
