Chapter 387: Joint Excerpts
At six o'clock, it was already dark, but fortunately, the lights in the barracks and the searchlights on the city walls lit up the night sky, but the drizzle floating in the sky was not big but very tight, and Lu Wang, who had just come out of the tent, couldn't help but shiver and couldn't help but tighten the down jacket on his body, "It's so cold when I say it's cold this day, and I feel like I'm back in the northeast in a second!" β
"It's still cold on this day? Brother, you will know what it means to be cold in half a month", Huang Degong next to him smiled heavily, and Lu Wang nodded abnormally without raising the bar, "You can imagine!" As he spoke, he threw out more than a dozen umbrellas and threw them to the guards next to him, and as a leader, he had to enjoy the feeling of pretending to be someone else's umbrella.
There were less than 2,000 people standing in the open space on the side of the north gate of the city, needless to say that they were captured by the thieves, but now after persuasion, education, intimidation, and inducement, they finally got right, and they stood trembling in the cold wind and drizzle, and their faces were still looking around in horror, especially the searchlight pillar on the head of the city, so that their eyes turned around.
"Big brother, everyone is ready, Lao Zhu Man has picked a thousand people before it is my turn, but only seven hundred are qualified!" Seeing Lu Wang coming, Xu Wenjue, who was still brainwashing the thief army just now, ran under Lu Wang's umbrella.
Well, Lu Wang nodded, "These are the foundations of your Xu family's army, take your time, this kind of thing is not done in one hand, as long as you work hard, there will always be a chance to wield thousands of troops one day!" β
After listening to Lu Wang's words, Xu Wenjue's eyes lit up, and he grabbed his sleeve excitedly, "Big brother, do you mean that my banner can be written as Xu?" β
"Absolutely! This must be", Lu Wang's natural expression made Xu Wenjue even more excited, he didn't know what to say for a while, he was moved and excited, all kinds of excitement, it is estimated that he wants to find his father Xu Hongji to brag about it now!
Ignoring Xu Wenjue's excitement alone, Lu Wang slowly walked up to these captives, looked at them with a serious expression and didn't say a word for a while. Only then did he turn his head and say to Zhao Mingyang behind him: "Each person will be given a set of winter clothes, and then stew a few pots of bone broth to warm their bodies, and train in half an hour!" β
"Ah, train now?" Xu Wenjue and Zhu Yujian next to him expressed surprise in unison, and Lu Wang pouted, "What?" If you don't train if you are full of food and drink, you should go to warm the bed, or wait for the thief army to come to the door and then come to train! There is no other way to form a new army than actual combat or training, Wenjue, come here, I have something to say to you alone! β
Oh! Xu Wenjue took the guard's umbrella to help Lu Wang hold it, and the two brothers walked aside. "Big brother, what's the matter?"
"It's nothing important, I just want to give you a wake-up call, you see that the old Zhu family is rich and rich, and the foundation is thick, just now I heard the Tang King muttering something to transfer the three hundred family members in the family to him as the boss of the Tang Army, and the combat effectiveness of the family Ding does not need to be said, you also know best in your family!"
"Big brother, do you mean to let me go home and transfer some private soldiers to come over?" Xu Wenjue is a little difficult, Nanyang is thousands of miles away from Nanjing. In total, his father sent less than 100 family members to protect his brothers!
"That's no need, you have enough people here, although there aren't many people, but your family is a good hand. There are some big masters among them, and I'm just reminding you that these thieves have just surrendered and are not condensing. The ambition is not high, the mud is scattered, and it needs to be adjusted. Brother Tang Wang is an old fritter so he knows to put his own people in, you are too young, so the eldest brother reminds you that if you want to subdue these soldiers, you will be beaten first! β
"Convinced? Big brother, didn't you say that soldiers are not allowed to be mistreated in the army? Xu Wenjue asked, Lu Wang couldn't help but kick him, "Stupid, the beating I said is not really beating, it's training, put all those members of your family into it to be a small squad leader, platoon leader or something, and train according to death!" and Yang Yizhan is so good at kung fu, get to be the head of the coach! β
"yes!" Xu Wenjue was overjoyed, "Thank you, big brother, for reminding me!" β
"No thanks, let Yang Yizhan go to my corps to teach boxing when it's convenient, just thank me", Lu Wang said and grinned, and walked in the direction of Tang Wang and the others, shouting loudly: "Zhao Mingyang asked people to set up some tents for the soldiers in the city, and sent some winter clothes over, it was raining again on a cold day, so he stood stupidly and suffered!" β
"I have thanked the little uncle for those subordinates!" Hearing that Lu Wang was so atmospheric, Fierce as a Tiger and Liu Guangzuo immediately clasped their fists at Lu Wang and saluted, Lu Wang was stunned, "Aren't my eldest brother's men in the city, why are you thanking me!" β
"Well, back to the little uncle, there are also a few of my subordinates who ...... with Mr. Liu", Meng Ruhu said embarrassedly, Lu Wang was a little puzzled, no, didn't he transfer the soldiers and horses of these two people to the city to rest a long time ago, why did he go up again, but he knew it with a roll of his eyes, it turned out that these two brothers were here to get cheap, and he had already seen that Lu Wang couldn't bear to give some benefits to the soldiers in the city if they were cold, so he hurriedly and secretly transferred his men and horses, anyway, if he could get some light, he would get some light!
"I said that the two generals, you are so attentive, buddy is really convinced!" Lu Wang's smile was as fierce as a tiger and Liu Guangzuo smiled awkwardly, "Little uncle...... Hey, the soldiers are now thinly dressed, their winter clothes haven't been settled yet, and their salaries are ......."
"Gotcha, gotcha, gotcha", Lu Wang hurriedly stopped the two of them complaining, and beckoned Huang Degong, who was talking nonsense with Tang Wang next to him, to call over, "I said big brother, I have a small proposal!" β
"What's the proposal, say it, your buddy says it!" Huang Degong looked arrogant, and Lu Wang, who was looking at it, pouted, "Yes, you don't see your buddy at all, eat and drink me, use mine to catch me, and gnaw hard, and immediately gnaw on the bone marrow, you know no!" β
"What do you mean! Are you upset? Huang Degong didn't understand what Lu Wang wanted to express!
"Just one thing! Dude can't afford to raise you! Lu Wang said with a bitter face, "I have 20,000 horses to eat, drink and use all kinds of money, and now it is time to change the season and add clothes, I am already choked enough, and your 30,000 people are looking at me sloppily, and now these two generals have also begun to beat me, I said that the three of you are all fierce men with military power, can you not catch my small man and work hard!" β
"Ahem, ahem, brother", Huang Degong looked at Meng Ruhu and Liu Guangzuo with an embarrassed face and didn't speak, so he had to speak, "It's not that we gnaw you, it's that there is no way now, the treasury has no money, the military salary is not paid, the drought has not been collected for many years, and there is no food and salary, and now you don't give clothes, how can you let the soldiers go to war!" β
"Looking for the emperor to go! Why are you cheating on me", Lu Wang began to point out Huang Degong's several people, but these are almost the same, and as for the shrewd Liu Guangzuo, he can't guess what Lu Wang means if he doesn't know the inside story
"Isn't the emperor out of money! I've made countless excerpts! Huang Degong's face was bitter, and Lu Wang couldn't help but sigh, "It's so tiring to talk to you!" β
"Big brother, the emperor has money now, I just gave him a few million taels in the previous battle, I propose that the three of you jointly sign a fold to hurry up and urge the food and military salaries, otherwise they will all be used by the losers in his harem to buy masks!"
"Ahh yes"! Lu Wang's words, the three of them naturally reacted differently, he and Liu Guangzuo didn't know about it, but Huang Degong knew!
"But the world is in turmoil, and there is more than one place where the silver is used, and I heard that the border pass is also urging very much, I don't know how much I can come!" Huang Degong said to himself!
"Big brother, General Tiger, General Liu, the three of you immediately signed a joint excerpt and said that the thief army could not attack Nanyang, but was surrounded by the three of you, and only need to hold on for half a month to disintegrate the thieves, and even be sure to kill Li Zicheng! However, now the officers and men are short of food and clothing...... You know what to say for the rest! Li Thief is a thorn in the emperor's flesh, there is such great news, not to mention that you want silver, you just want gold, he will give it if he smashes the pot and sells iron! β
"Little uncle, aren't you clearly falsely reporting the military situation?" , Although Huang Degong is rough and a little reckless, he is not a positive but absolutely loyal, but he is as fierce as a tiger is different, this person is not only loyal but also very positive, and he was worried when he heard that Lu Wang was going to lie about the military situation!
"General Hu, don't worry, although we are now confronting the thief army, but I guarantee that when the fold is in the hands of the emperor, it will be encircled, don't you believe me, besides, I am also for the sake of your soldiers, is it possible that you really plan to freeze them to death and starve to death!" Lu Wan said patiently
"Little uncle, even if the emperor allocates silver, grain and grass, when will this thousands of miles come to it, far water can't quench the thirst of the near! Besides, at this time, if you have money, you may not be able to buy food and clothing! Liu Guangzuo also raised his own concerns!
"It's all right! As long as the emperor agrees to allocate silver, as for clothes and food, there is no need to transfer them from other places, let alone worry about not being able to buy them, because I have ah, I can sell them in stock, and I don't need the emperor to transport the silver, just make a slip! Lu Wang said hahaha laughed, the three of them were in a big way, and after a while, Huang Degong grabbed Lu Wang and walked aside, "Brother, what's the matter?" β
"Guess what!" Lu Wang squeezed his eyes as he spoke, Huang Degong frowned and snorted, and suddenly realized, "I remember, do you still owe the emperor silver?" β
βBinggoοΌβ Lu Wang snapped his fingers, "I still owe a few million, but I don't plan to give it", he patted Huang Degong's shoulder as he spoke, "Big brother to tell the truth, even if the emperor doesn't allocate the money to come, I can't see you starve to death and freeze to death, but I don't want the emperor to take advantage of me, right!" So I happily let him take credit from me, and I just owe him silver, so that the two are offset! β
"You're a thief!" Huang Degong stretched out his thumb, "Brother has convinced you!" β
"Hehe, hurry up and think about how to write an excerpt, I promise he will agree!" Lu Wang laughed as he spoke, turned around and walked towards the big tent, "Zheng Hong, Li Qingshan, Weng Zhiqi come here to listen to the reward!" β
