He Dali was furious, flipped the table and shouted: "You slaughtered innocent villagers, and you dare to talk back in front of me! Lao Tzu will tear you up first!"

Long Yuandong stopped and said: "Fatty, you sit down for me! Everyone is here, you might as well make your words clear." Gongsun Liang, tell me, what's going on?"

Gongsun Liang said neither humbly nor arrogantly: "We slaughtered seven villages, but they are by no means innocent villagers, all of them are closely related to the Five Elements Sect, or family members, or send intelligence, if it weren't for them, we wouldn't necessarily end up in the current field." As an officer and soldier, we are righteous, and we don't know what is wrong with us?"

He vigorously kicked the broken wooden stool and shouted: "You are still quibbling! Those people are obviously ordinary people! Not even soul masters! Even if there are people who collude with bandits, they should not kill all men, women, and children indiscriminately! What is the innocence of young children? What about the fetus in the womb of a pregnant woman? You just kill people, why do you still rape people's daughters? What is the difference between this and those bandits in the Five Elements Sect?"

Gongsun Liang said-for-tat: "The crime of rebellion, Zhulian Nine Clans, for the traitors of the Five Elements Sect, why should our army be soft? How can it be soft? Even if there are some radical moves, it is reasonable!"

He was annoyed that he was quibbling, and his anger was even hotter, and he stepped forward, reaching out to crush Gongsun Liang's throat.

Long Yuandong hurriedly opened his way and said, "Stand down for me! If you are impulsive again, I will ask someone to drag you out!" and asked: "Gongsun Liang, how many of you are there?

Gongsun Liang bowed and said: "General, our Matai County Government Army originally had 3,200 soldiers, and after the fall of the county, Director Zhao led everyone to break through and survived 2,000 people. In the past six months, the fighting has been carried out, the attrition has been drastic, and the number of recruits absorbed has basically remained the same as the casualties. Now the total number is still 2,000. Among them, there is only one sixth-order soul master, one is Director Zhao, nine fifth-order soul masters, fifty-three fourth-order soul masters, seven hundred and fifty third-order soul masters, and the rest are first-order and second-order soul masters. ”

"It's all soul masters?" Long Yuandong's eyes lit up, and he muttered: "In a team of two thousand people, there are only sixty-three soul masters above the fourth order, but there are seven or eight hundred soul masters in the third order, it seems that everyone is mainly stuck at the cultivation level, as long as they are well guided, the potential is unlimited." Such a team, if it is formed in the Dragon Armor Army, will definitely shine in the future!"

"The general is wise!" Gongsun Liang heard this statement, and his hanging heart finally had some settles.

He Dali said in a loud voice: "I don't agree! Such a unit is incorporated into the Dragon Armor Army, and it won't have a bad reputation! We just need a good man with a clean net worth, and don't be an old fritter who behaves nonsense!"

Gongsun Liang knew He Dali's status in the Dragon Armor Army, but he was afraid that Long Yuandong would give up the incorporation because of his obstruction, and fine sweat unconsciously oozed from his forehead.

Long Yuandong ignored He Dali, turned his head and said, "Brother Wenjiao, you are the chief of staff, what do you think?"

Dugu Wen pondered for a long time, and said: "First, the Matai County Guerrilla Army was originally a dignified and upright imperial army, and now it has been reincorporated into our Longjia Army, which is beyond reproach; second, although the overall combat strength of this army is not high, the potential that can be tapped is huge, and a little reorganization can greatly increase the strength of the Longjia Army in a short period of time, which is a good thing that cannot be met for us; third, the matter of the guerrilla army slaughtering the village is still controversial, and I think it should be put aside for the time being. ”

He vigorously shouted: "Murder and slaughter villages, right and wrong are clear, what is the dispute?"

Long Yuandong shouted angrily: "You shut up for me first! What other opinions do the others have?"

Although Xiong Zhuangzhuang, Zhong Dinghe and others also resented Zhao Donghui's slaughter of the village, if the villagers really had the fact that they collaborated with the enemy, then it seemed understandable to kill them, just say that the old man he met in Matai County that day had personally admitted that he knew the people of the Five Elements Sect. Therefore, there was a general preference for incorporation.

Gong Luoluo's identity is transcendent, and there is nothing to do.

Yun Tianjia was silent.

Long Yuandong paced back and forth a few steps and said, "Gongsun Liang, I am very happy to incorporate your army. But there are three conditions, and you have to get Zhao Donghui to agree. Otherwise, you will have to find another way. ”

Gongsun Liang arched his hand and said: "What conditions, please explain to the general!"

"First, the guerrilla army must be completely dispersed and reorganized into various units of the Longjia Army, and the previous structure and subordinate relationship must not be retained; second, after the guerrilla army comes to the Longjia Army, all generals and officers must be demoted. For example, Zhao Donghui, as the chief soldier of Matai County, was originally a military attache of the sixth grade, and he was in charge of thousands of people on weekdays, but after arriving in the Longjia Army, the military rank needed to be reduced to the sixth grade, and he was the deputy of Feng Asan, the commander of the water brigade. Third, all generals of the guerrilla army at the rank of captain and above must receive intensive training in military discipline from the General Staff and squat in a small black house for half a month to punish the crime of losing the city and punish the crime of indiscriminate killing!"

Gongsun Liang was overjoyed, knelt on the ground and kowtowed: "Tell the general, before the lower official came to Lotus Xiangwu, Director Zhao had an explanation, as long as the soldiers can join the Dragon Armor Army, everything is subject to the general's decision." The first point that the general said, the guerrilla army is completely acceptable. Second, I will go back to Ming Zhao and let him make a choice. I don't know what this little black house is? The general blames us for the crime of losing the city and the mistake of indiscriminately killing, and we are ashamed. ”

"What is the little black house, someone will take you to see it later. Long Yuandong said solemnly: "There is no doubt that it is a crime to lose the city, and it is even more guilty to kill indiscriminately. However, the guerrilla army was still fighting bravely to kill the enemy and persisting in suppressing bandits. When you get back, please do your best to facilitate the incorporation. This glass of wine, I salute you!"

Seeing that Long Yuandong had already made a decision, He Dali was angry, snorted heavily, and suddenly thought: "I remember in my heart to find Zhao Donghui, this kid to take revenge, but if he doesn't take the initiative to send it to the door, I can't do anything about him." Long Shovel has always hated people who bully civilians, and the last time the flat pigeon sent a message to the Five Elements Sect to communicate with the enemy, he didn't kill it. He was bent on absorbing Zhao Donghui's guerrilla army, perhaps trying to trick Zhao Donghui first, and then slowly clean it up. I'll be silent and see what he does. ”

In fact, Long Yuandong has always been above board and fair, and he never likes to engage in any conspiracy. He wanted to adopt Zhao Donghui, completely out of sincerity.

First, those villagers who were killed did have the behavior of being close to the Five Elements Sect, and Zhao Donghui killed them, in the eyes of the imperial court, not only should not be used as a stain, but as a proof of loyalty to official affairs. Zhao Donghui is not the establishment of the Dragon Armor Army, so how can he know the rule that the Dragon Armor Army does not kill civilians? Long Yuandong can't blame him.

Second, Zhao Donghui took the initiative to join the army and rashly killed him with a knife, who would dare to serve the Longjia Army in the future? Today, which army does not have more or less indiscriminate killing? They are concerned about Zhao Donghui's experience in the past, and regard the Longjia Army as an outlier that cannot cooperate, which is quite unfavorable to the development and growth of the Longjia Army;

Thirdly, many of the current fighters of the Longjia Army came from other units, and they used to regard civilians as inferior, but now they have also been properly reformed? Long Yuandong is confident that he will assimilate Zhao Donghui's guerrilla army.

Fourth, Dugu Wen's waist went south to recruit soldiers, and it was too difficult to recruit 8,000 people. And it is conceivable that most of the soldiers recruited in this way are probably low-level soul masters of the first and second order, and they are not the same as the veterans of the guerrilla army led by Zhao Donghui. There is no doubt that the real source of elite soldiers is the army. In the future, the expansion of the Dragon Armor Army should also be based on annexing and reorganizing the remnants of the old army, rather than directly recruiting from the civilian population.

All in all, the integration of the guerrilla army will do more benefits than disadvantages to the dragon armor army. Long Yuandong has no reason to ignore the development of the Dragon Armor Army in order to vent his own selfish anger.

However, he could not kill Zhao Donghui, but he could not punish Zhao Donghui.

Gongsun Liang wrote down the three conditions put forward by Long Yuandong and returned to the guerrilla army overnight.
