Han Xu looked at everyone, his tone was unhurried, calm, and contained a strong self-confidence, and all the people present were thinking along with his words and thoughts unconsciously.

"The second step is to make sure that the armor is strong, there are not many of us, we can try to get more armor stomachs and good horses, and get more good weapons. I look at the general knowledge of governance, Tang Taizong Li Shimin's self-stated method of winning more battles is just four words: Jiajian soldiers. I think that we can still think of ways to do things that cannot be done by a large number of people, and we now have a maximum of 50 people. ”

"The third step is to seek the way to win, Donglu has fought for decades, don't talk about ordinary battalion soldiers and our sentry horses, even if the generals around them meet Donglu, they can't please us, just our people, there is no valley ambush, shoot the enemy's back and kill people by name, and if we encounter a hard job, even if we can win, we can kill a thousand enemies and lose eight hundred, such a victory is fought twice, I'm afraid that no one will continue to follow me Han."

Every general has an account in the heart of the battalion soldiers, whether he loses more or wins more, whether he is generous to his subordinates, whether he is willing to award rewards, whether he is willing to promote people, how many people he takes out and how many people he can come back every time he goes out...... These things must not be seen in the history books, how can ordinary battalion soldiers not be worried in their hearts?

There may be many people who despise strong enemies and ignore life and death, but such a proud man may be the two young men of the He family in front of him...... Even if Gao Xiaosan and Yang Guoyong are loyal, if they are likely to die every time they go out, and the probability is very high, it is difficult to say whether these two people can maintain strong morale and loyalty for a long time.

It's really hard to understand the minds of these low-level petty officers and soldiers, who are not in it......

If Han Xu is given a root base and calm time, he will slowly find his own way to lead the troops, and after the group is formed, the centripetal force and cohesion will solve many problems, but now, winning the battle and getting more military merits is the most important thing!

At this point, everyone stood up together, the He family brothers and Yang Guoyong, the senior junior of the high school, hugged their fists together, and responded loudly in unison: "Yes, put the total adult!" ”

Han Xu smiled, pointed to the silver in front of him, and said, "Just call me Han Tou'er, there is no need for me to be so formal in private...... The money in front of you, everyone divided it, right? ”

Gao Xiaosan's eyes showed a look of joy, but before he could speak, He Qingyun and He Qinglei glanced at each other, and hurriedly said: "Since Han Tou'er said that he still wants to recruit people to fight, there are more places to use silver, to be honest, this bit of silver is not enough at all, I don't have to worry about food and clothing now, and I followed Han Tou'er to be awarded an official, this official robe, the silver in front of me can't be bought, if we covet this money again, wouldn't we have no heart." ”

Yang Guoyong nodded and said, "That's the reason." ”

Gao Xiaosan gritted his teeth and said, "Of course, this silver is for Han Tou'er, let's not want it." ”

Han Xu nodded with satisfaction, but he still took two ingots of silver in his hand, stuffed them into Gao Xiaosan and Yang Guoyong, and said with a smile: "The two brothers of the He family eat and live with me, and have silver to use together, both of you have a small family in Liaoyang, go with me in a few days, and send some silver home." ”

Gao Xiaosan and Yang Guoyong were both overjoyed, and the two bowed down deeply together, but they didn't say a word.

……

On the third day of the first month of August, Han Xu led more than 20 horsemen out of Fengji Fort and rushed to Liaoyang.

The number of displaced people outside the fort has decreased a lot, and those who have a little strength continue to go west or south, Liaozhong and southern Liaoning are still peaceful, and ordinary people have gone there, they never thought that within a few years, Fuzhou and Jinzhou and other places will be slaughtered to the ground, and how many people have escaped from the Kaiyuan Tieling area, but finally died in southern Liaoning.

Those who go to western Liaoning may stop at Songshan, Xingshan, Tashan all the way, or stay in Jinzhou and Guangning, and eventually they will not escape bad luck.

Only a few lucky people fled all the way to the area from Ningyuan to Shanhaiguan, and finally saved their lives.

Han Xu saw that the crazy woman was still sitting there, there were fewer and fewer people around, her madness seemed to be better, her eyes gradually became clearer, but the pain in her eyes also became very obvious, he sighed, there are many people who encounter this woman in general, on the way to escape, the old man and the child are the first to fall, after they die, the most painful is of course the relatives, this woman seems to be better than continuing to go crazy.

Now that he has been promoted to general manager, he has already told people to continue to give this woman a bowl of rice to eat, if it were not for him, I am afraid that this woman would have starved to death.

More than 20 rode on the avenue, began to gallop in the direction of Liaoyang, came out in the morning, the majestic and vast Liaoyang City was already in sight at noon, the farmland on both sides of the road had been harvested, the wheat had not been planted, the land was bare, the people's hearts were floating, many people were watching, I don't know whether to stay or escape, most of the landed people were rich gentry and wealthy businessmen and guards officers, they were the most floating group of people in the Liao people, the proprietors could not make up their minds, the tenant farmers were of course happy to be idle, all the way over, a large area of fields and acres were barren, and no one did the work of turning the ridges.

The weather at the beginning of August, there was some heat at noon, and the Ming troops on horseback were also sweating, and the horses' hooves were knocking on the official road with a lot of floating soil, and the dust was flying, and everyone's face was stained with black ash, which was very embarrassing.

There are some people on both sides of the road, hearing the sound of horses' hooves, everyone is closed, in broad daylight, no one dares to open the door and come out, Han Xu saw that there are many people in the house peeking out of the window, his eyes are very cringe, he sighed in his heart, Liaodong has always been known as the people's strong style, Liaozhen has always been a strong town of the Ming Dynasty, but after repeated defeats, the morale of the army and the people has been depressed to this point.

"Han Tou, a ditch has been dug ahead, let's take a detour."

Gao Xiaosan is a few natives of Liaoyang, he and Yang Guoyong led people first, Han Xu led the brigade behind, hearing Gao Xiaosan's words, Han Xu and the Ming soldiers around him all stopped riding and stopping.

"Scoop." A sturdy man with a sideways face spat and scolded: "It's really fucking a lot of things." ”

Han Xu glanced at this person, the other party first wanted to stare back, and then remembered Han Xu's skills and identity, so he withdrew his eyes and lowered his head.

The more than 20 people around Han Xu, including Wei Junfeng, Ren Shangwu, Han Liang, Li Wei and others, were all selected from the original night not to collect the team, and at this time they dared to enter the night not to collect the team to charge the sentry and ride, all of them were courageous, but these people had their own problems, Han Xu was still slowly adjusting them, and the one who scolded people was Ren Shangwu, who was born in Shenyang Zhongwei, I don't know how many times he committed military law, and the number of whip marks behind him is countless, if it weren't for some ability, he would have been beheaded I don't know how many times.

Han Xu only plans to recruit about fifty subordinates, which is equivalent to the total number of original sentinels, among the Ming army, the sentinels are ordinary elites, and the family is the pride of the son of heaven in the Ming army, a guerrilla may raise forty or fifty family members, one or two hundred generals, deputy generals and general soldiers to support family members, more than 1,000 to two or three thousand people, Li Chengliang raised 8,000 family members back then, all of them were cavalry. Han Xu's sentry horseman, in terms of martial arts, is definitely mostly under the family, if the martial arts are first-class strong, they will definitely take the lead away, only a few people with bad temper and poor temperament, even if they have superb martial arts, it is difficult to be selected into the family.

Right now, beside Han Xu, most of the subordinates with a rebellious look on their faces are just some thorns.
