Chapter 53: Otherwise, there will be no forgiveness for killing

The training lasted nearly three hours, and it was already dusk when it ended.

However, Huang Degong, Gao Jie, and Liu Liangzuo did not feel any boredom and exhaustion, and they were very shocked to see them, and they all looked very excited, and even excited to want to participate in it in person.

After the training was over, the soldiers covered in mud were brought back to the barracks, and they were not disbanded immediately, but performed a queue performance again, reorganized the team and counted the number of people, and after reporting the results of the training, the generals of each battalion left and disbanded with the soldiers.

When everything was over, it was already dark, and Cao Yue decided not to return to the city at night, so he stayed in the Yanziji camp.

He asked Huang Degong, Gao Jie, and Liu Liangzuo to have dinner with him, and chatted about things related to several people by the way during dinner.

When Huang Degong and others got up in a panic to thank them, he said lightly: "Several, tell me your thoughts on observing the training of the Nanjing New Army today, you can say anything you want." If you have any opinions or suggestions about the arrangements of the imperial court, you can also tell me. Don't have any scruples, I know that you must have a lot of complaints and dissatisfaction in your hearts, but now is a very moment, we need stability, we need to be ironclad, and we can't fight with each other anymore, otherwise we will give Liukou and Jiannu an opportunity to take advantage of. Okay, let's talk about today's training and the evaluation of the Nanjing New Army!"

Hearing Cao Yue say this, Huang Degong, Gao Jie, and Liu Liangzuo were all a little surprised, they didn't expect Cao Yue to be so direct, and they were ready to talk about things directly without any detours. It's good to save any dumb riddles in this way, and everything opens the skylight to say something.

Since Cao Yue asked them to talk about today's training and their evaluation of the Nanjing New Army, they were ready to start with this matter.

"Lord Cao. Let's talk about it first!" Huang Degong is quick to talk.

Cao Yue nodded, and raised his wine glass to toast Huang Degong, "Lord Huang can say whatever he wants!"

"Lord Cao's way of training is very admirable and beyond the reach of the lowly position, and the military appearance of the Nanjing New Army makes us refreshed. We also believe that the combat effectiveness of the Nanjing New Army is far stronger than that of ordinary armies!" After Huang Degong briefly commented on his training and the Nanjing New Army today, he immediately talked about the dismissal of their military rights and let them serve in Nanjing, "But I can't understand the lowly position, why do you want to remove our military power and let us come to Nanjing to take up posts?" Is the imperial court unable to tolerate us veterans who have been on the battlefield for many years? ”

Listening to Huang Degong's sharp question, Gao Jie and Liu Liangzuo, who were originally a little uneasy, immediately came to their senses and put down their wine glasses. Listen carefully.

"As I said earlier, we need to do extraordinary things in extraordinary times. Beijing was broken by the Liukou, the first emperor committed suicide and martyrdom, he recruited the army of King Qin before his death, but there are so many soldiers and horses in the world, but there are not many generals willing to lead the army to rescue, most of the people have the idea of preserving their strength, and support the army to respect themselves. That Liu Zeqing actually lied that he had injured his foot and couldn't lead the army to King Qin. It's funny, he just broke his foot. But His Majesty the Emperor was forced to lose his life by the rogues, and anyone can tell which is more important and which is more important. You know all of your thoughts at the time of this national crisis, and you don't want me to break it one by one. The Ming people don't say secret words anymore, now that the new emperor has just been established, the place that I can control by the Ming Dynasty can no longer be like before, and it must be monolithic. Fight against the Liukou and Jiannu!" Speaking of this, Cao Yue paused and drank a glass of wine.

After putting down the glass, he said slowly, "I believe you know that you can now be called self-respecting. If you don't listen to the orders of the imperial court, and even the imperial court can think that you are rebellious, so this is why you give up the right to lead the army and serve in Beijing, in other words, this can also be said to be a reward for you, in the end, you will be promoted, and you will understand that the new position is more suitable for you than the original position. After you take up your post in Beijing, most of the army you originally led will be disbanded, and the elite will be recruited, and I can tell you this without ambiguity today. I believe that you have also seen the overall situation of the Nanjing New Army today, and what I want to tell you is that this is a new recruit who has only been recruited for a month, and their overall military quality cannot be compared with the 100,000 people in front of them. I won't accept all of your troops, and I'm still worried that my military discipline will be broken and the overall combat effectiveness of the Ming New Army will be lowered. ”

Cao Yue continued: "Today I will not reserve to tell you about the new military rectification plan of the Dadu Governor's Office, the imperial court is ready to form a new Ming new army, ready to be commensurate with the guards, all the horses are re-recruited and reorganized, and a large number of firearms are equipped, and strive to far surpass the Liukou and Jiannu in terms of the quality and equipment of the soldiers, we don't need a lot of troops, I just need elite soldiers, elite soldiers who can make the enemy fearful." And this army must be firmly in the hands of the Metropolitan Governor's Office, and any army that is unwilling to obey the imperial edict and the military orders of the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion will be regarded as a rebel army and destroyed. When the army is initially established this time, it is the time when our Ming New Army's Northern Expedition recovers the lost territory and avenges the emperor, and I don't want anyone to stand up and oppose and add to the chaos. I won't hide it from you today, Liu Zeqing was not killed by his subordinates, but was assassinated by the elite men and horses I sent. Any movement of his men and horses is under my control, so it is impossible for him to succeed if he is unwilling to obey the edict of the imperial court. The soldiers trained by my Cao Yue can defeat Jiannu and Liukou several times, and their combat effectiveness is not blown. ”

Cao Yue's words directly frightened Huang Degong, Gao Jie, Liu Liangzuo and others, if this is the case, then there are also elite men and horses sent by Cao Yue lurking in their army, and if they do not obey the imperial edict, they will also kill them. They also felt very fortunate that they did not follow in Liu Zeqing's footsteps and chose to give in, otherwise they would have ended up with the same fate as Liu Zeqing.

"You are all leaders for many years, and I know that you are very straight, so I didn't go around the bend with you today, and directly explained the meaning. Don't doubt that I want to seek the highest power, I Cao Yue don't want to seek anything, I just hope to restore peace in the world, eliminate the rogues, destroy the slaves, and let the people of the world live a happy and peaceful life. If there ever was a day, I would quit all my positions and enjoy life. If you will help me in my work and in the conduct of military affairs, then your duties will be fulfilled to-morrow; If I don't have that mind, I can't ask for it. But I still put the ugly words in front of me, I will not allow anyone to do anything to restrain me and ruin my plan, let alone anyone to sabotage in the form of harmony, nor will I tolerate disobedience to my orders, otherwise it will ......."

After Cao Yue paused, he shouted again with murderous aura: "There is no forgiveness !! killing." (To be continued.) )
