After Hu Jun left, Mo Chu promoted Vice General Liu Ming to deputy general and asked him to replace Hu Jun. The entire southeastern battalion gradually returned to normal.

After a period of cultivation, Lin Shan has completely recovered. Mo Chu put him by his side and helped him run errands.

Mo Chu had learned history well before, and he remembered that it should be this time when Wu rose up and took refuge in the Chu State. Since he was rejected to Yingdu, there was only one way for him to take refuge in the Chu State, that is, to come directly to Hanyu Pass to find him.

Since history cannot be changed, then Wu Qi will definitely come to Chu. So, Mo Chu arranged for Lin Shan to guard the gate of the barracks and wait for Wu Qi's arrival.

Three days have passed, and there is still no trace of Wu Qi. Lin Shan began to be a little impatient.

"General, will that Wu Qi come after all?"

"I'm not sure about this. ”

"What, you're not sure, and you've kept me waiting for the door!"

"Xiaolinzi, I told you a long time ago, it's hard to follow me. If you want to go back now, it's still too late. ”

"General, I'm following you to do something interesting. You're going to let me guard the door, that's boring. ”

"Xiao Linzi, are there always guards at the gate of the barracks?"

"Yes. ”

"If it doesn't matter, I can just tell the guards why you're still guarding the door. Just because this person is very important, I asked you to do it, and I don't feel comfortable handing it over to someone else, understand?"

Lin Shan shrugged, "Since you value this person so much, I will definitely wait for him." ”

"Well, I believe in you! Don't let me down. ”

Before Lin Shan could reach the gate of the barracks, he heard a quarrel.

"I'm going in to meet General Mochu. A middle-aged man in ragged clothes said to the guards.

"The general is very crowded, not something you can see if you want to. This is a large battalion in the southeast, a military stronghold, please leave quickly. ”

"Trouble brother go in and report, I must see the general. The middle-aged man begged.

"I told you a long time ago, the general doesn't have time to see you, get out!"

Lin Shan stepped forward and asked, "Who are you, why do you want to see the general?"

"Wu Qi, the grass people, came to seek refuge with the general. ”

"Are you really Wu Qi?"

"It's like a fake!"

"The general is really a god, he had already calculated that you were coming, but he didn't expect you to really come!"

"You mean the general counted me coming?"

"That's right, he asked me to pick you up, so come with me to him now. ”

Lin Shan brought Wu Qi into the General's Mansion.

Mo Chu looked at this middle-aged man in ragged clothes, and began to mutter, this is the famous Wu Qi, General Wu, look at it like this.

"The grass people meet the general. Wu Qi fell to his knees.

"Are you really Wu Qi?" Mo Chu asked.

"Yes. ”

"You're Wu Zhi's brother?"

"Yes, Wu Zhi is young and has gone astray, and I, the eldest brother, are also guilty. ”

"Wu Zhi is Wu Zhi, you are you. Why do you want to take refuge in the state of Chu?"

"Looking at the world, the seven kingdoms are competing with each other, and the flames are everywhere, and the ones who can really dominate the world are the Qi countries, the Qin countries, and the Chu countries. Wu Qi paused and continued, "The Qi State is strong on the surface, but the King of Qi is short-sighted, and it is difficult to become a climate. Qin was located in the northwest, with poor land and a backward economy. Only the state of Chu has a superior geographical location, and the king of Chu is wise, coupled with the assistance of a person with superior strength like you, he will definitely be able to dominate the princes in the future. ”

"Then do you know why the King of Chu wants to recruit wise men from all over the country?"

"The king of Chu has great ambitions and intends to win the world. However, if you want to unify the Central Plains, you must first pacify the southeast. ”

You go on. ”

"King Yue is mediocre, and now Zhang Li is in power, but Zhang Lizhi is talented and sparse, brave and unscrupulous. The state of Chu is now strong, as long as it takes a year or two, it will definitely be able to build a strong army and annihilate the Yue state in one fell swoop. It then used the southeast as a base and continued to expand to the northwest to compete with the three kingdoms of Qin, Wei, and Qi. ”

Mo Chu was amazed in his heart, worthy of being a well-known general.

"Then what do you think should be done?"

"Gongyue is not the time yet. The reasons are as follows: first, the army of Chu still needs to be expanded and polished; second, Chu has insufficient reserves of various materials; third, the terrain of Yue is complex, easy to defend and difficult to attack; and fourth, the people of Yue have not completely disliked the rule of the current imperial court. ”

"What do you think we should do?"

"Now the great general has been forming a strong elite army, and the economy of Chu has also developed rapidly in recent years. The first and second problems have been solved. As for the third and fourth questions, it is necessary for a person to go deep into the Yue country, understand the situation in the country in detail, and at the same time encourage the people of the country to rebel and overthrow the rule of the king of Yue. ”

"What Mr. Wu said is clear, but solving the last two problems is not an overnight thing. ”

"The general is a person who understands, and the grass people are willing to go deep into the country of Yue, and it will take two years to complete the two problems. ”

Mo Chu stepped forward to help Wu Qi up.

"If there is a gentleman to help, we will definitely be able to destroy the Yue Kingdom. ”

"It's all up to the general!"

"Okay, in the future, Mr. will be the military advisor of my southeast battalion. ”

"General Xie!"

"Master Wu, from today onwards, you will start to deal with the matter of Gongyue. If you need anything to tell Lin Shan directly, I will definitely support it. ”

"Lin Shan, in the future, you will follow Wu Junshi, and you must obey his dispatch. ”

"Yes, General. ”

"Then it's hard Brother Lin Shan!"

"Wu Junshi is polite, supporting you is supporting the general. ”

"Then go down and prepare. ”

Lin Shan took Wu Qi to the barracks.

Five days later, Mo Chu was chatting with Zhen Cheng. Lin Shan hurriedly ran in, sweating profusely.

"Xiao Linzi, what's the matter, panic. Zhen Cheng asked.

"General, Brother Zhen, you are all here!"

"Just say anything. Mo Chu said.

"Wu Qi is crazy and wants to kill!"

Mo Chu touched his earlobe, his sword eyebrows furrowed.

"What do you mean by that, be clear. ”

Wu Qi planned to form an elite squad to conduct in-depth investigations in Vietnam, and he selected fifty people in the military camp. ”

"This is what I agree with, what's the problem?"

"At the beginning, I thought this Wu Qi was a great talent. He can pay attention to the selection of people, first, he must be educated and able to draw; second, he must be eloquent; third, he must be strong; and fourth, he must be good at martial arts. He selected fifty out of tens of thousands of sergeants according to these criteria. ”

"That's good. ”

"That's what I thought at first. I didn't expect that just one day later, you would let these fifty people team up in pairs and fight each other. His rule was that the winner stayed, and the loser returned to his original formation with eighty sticks each. ”

"This Wu Qi is quite interesting. Zhen Cheng sighed.

"Brother Zhen, this is also interesting. In order to avoid the eighty military sticks, these people fought with their lives and beat their heads to the point of bleeding. ”

"It's really bloody!" Zhen Cheng frowned.

You go on. Mo Chu asked Lin Shan to continue.

"I thought that the selection game was over, but who would have thought that this Wu Qi was really not a thing, he did not let these twenty-five winners see a doctor and recuperate from his injuries, but instead locked them up and did not give them food or drink. One day later, three people passed out, and on the third day seven more fell, and by last night eighteen had passed out. If this continues, the people inside will either starve to death or die of thirst. ”

"Little junior brother, this Wu Qi's methods are too cruel, is this the talent you are talking about, too vicious!"

Mo Chu raised his hand to stop Zhen Cheng from continuing.

"Since I use him, I must believe him!"

Mo Chu took a sip of tea and continued, "Xiao Linzi, you gather the best doctor and be ready to rescue the unconscious at any time. ”

"General, do you want to let Wu Qi continue to make trouble, if the people inside don't eat again, they will definitely die. ”

"Presumptuous, you dare to teach me a lesson! Xiao Linzi, this is the army, those who violate the order will be killed!"

Lin Shan's face turned white with fright, and he hurriedly turned around and ran back to the army to rescue people.

"Little junior brother, have you done this too much?"

"Second Senior Brother, don't worry, in two days at most, this game will be over. ”

"Well, I also want to see what kind of medicine he sells in his gourd. ”

"You can rest assured, you will not be disappointed. ”

As Mo Chu expected, on the third day, Lin Shan returned to the General's Mansion to report.

"General, Wu Qi's selection has been completed. ”

"How many people are left?"

"Seven. ”

"Very good, is there anyone scattered in this selection game?"

"Nope!"

That means that Wu Qi did not kill anyone. ”

Lin Shan's face turned pale and he immediately fell to his knees. "General, it's a small mistake!"

Mo Chu made a straight face, "Xiao Linzi, this is a military camp, and the people here are protecting the lives of millions of people in the Chu State. If every soldier is weak and invincible, how can he take on such a heavy responsibility. ”

"Besides, since we are joining the army, everyone must have the heart of death, so that we can have the determination to win. ”

"General, listening to you is better than ten years. ”

"Soldiers must take obedience to orders as their duty, and cannot disobey the orders of their superiors, otherwise how can this 100,000-strong army command. ”

Mo Chu stepped forward to help Lin Shan.

"You see that Wu Qi is a little harsh now, but he is actually responsible for everyone's life, and now he can't bear this hardship, and if he really goes to the battlefield, it is easy to die. The cruelty of the present is to live a better life in the future. ”

Lin Shan nodded again and again.

"Xiao Linzi, you just arrived at the barracks and don't understand military regulations, which is understandable. But you've made a lot of progress, and you deserve to be commended! Remember, when a superior gives an order, you must carry it out unconditionally!"

"Yes, General. ”

Seeing that Lin Shan wanted to speak and stopped, Mo Chu knew that he still had something to say.

"Are you trying to say that if a superior gives a wrong order, does the subordinate have to carry it out?"

"The general is really a god!"

"It is the duty of a soldier to obey orders, and even if it is a wrong order, it must be carried out without hesitation. ”

Mo Chu sighed, "Of course, people are not immortals, and there will be mistakes, if your superior really makes a mistake, you can communicate with him privately." But these are very few. Do you understand, Kobayashi?"

"Got it!"

"Okay, you go down. ”

Zhen Cheng watched from the side, full of admiration for Mo Chu.

"Little junior brother, if someone says that you have never led troops and fought in battle, this person must be a fool! I think you are better than all the generals. ”

Mo Chu smiled bitterly, "Second Senior Brother, you have won the award! I really haven't been in the barracks before, these are all from books." ”

"But you have learned the essence of such famous generals, you are better than the blue!"

"Second Senior Brother, in fact, the army needs a down-to-earth and cautious general like you. After Hu Jun left, although Liu Ming had taken over, I was still not at ease. ”

Mo Chu took a sip of tea, "Now there are twelve new commanders, but after all, they are all newcomers, and many things need to be standardized." Master also asked me to track down the Nine Dragons Ding and the Golden Silk Soft Armor, I am a doppelganger, and you have to help me carry this burden when it comes to training the army in the future. ”

"Little junior brother, I don't know anything about leading soldiers to fight. ”

"Second Senior Brother, you are too modest, I have known you for so long, I know your strength very well, you have read more military books than me, you will definitely do it. ”

"But don't you still have General Liu Ming?"

"Liu Ming is really good, but this is related to the master, the princess, and even the great safety of the Chu State, I can only trust you!"

Zhen Cheng held Mo Chu's hand tightly, "Don't worry, I know the priorities, I won't let you down!"
