The Royal Palace, the Hall of Light.

Wen Yi looked at the report in his hand and was very surprised: "This Lu Yan really makes people crazy?" ”

Chai Ben seemed to be afraid that he would be prejudiced against Lu Yan, so he hurriedly said: "It can't be said that he was crazy, there was something wrong with this person when he was sent over." ”

"Later, his old subordinates exposed his disgraceful deeds, and was blamed by all the Goguryeo captives, and he had a nervous breakdown when he couldn't stand it."

"And this trick works very well, with the example of Che Youlin, those who have been officers in the army have taken the initiative to stand up for self-examination and apologize to those who have been bullied by them."

"In order to gain the understanding of others, they poured all the dirty water on their superiors and took the initiative to expose the darkness above."

"This effect is better than the soldiers themselves reminiscing about the bittersweet feelings, and now they are all scolding the previous generals and magnates, and there are few people who want to serve Goguryeo anymore."

"And this kid Lu Yan thought of a crooked idea again, and found a group of little ladies to wash and cook for these Goguryeo captives."

"Whoever behaves well can talk to these little girls. If they have the ability to hook people, they will be allowed to marry, and they will be set free. ”

"Now this group of Goguryeo soldiers are crazy, they work very hard, and they study hard...... I don't think it will take long to make it happen. ”

Wen Yi knew what he was thinking, but he didn't explain, but said, "This person's name is Lu Yan, right?" Isn't there a lot of crooked ideas? ”

Chai Ben breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and then praised him: "He is a soldier under Liu Meng, and he participated in the dust explosion with you, and when he broke Pyongyang City." ”

Wen Yi really became interested and said, "Is it, haha...... Yes, yes, such good seedlings should be cultivated. ”

Chai Ben said: "He is already a company commander at the age of eighteen, and we all feel that we should press it down and be promoted in a year or two." ”

Wen Yi said: "What's wrong with eighteen, I will establish the Tang Kingdom at eighteen, and I will be promoted when I should be promoted." ”

Chai Ben sneered: "How can he compare with you." ”

Wen Yi said: "What can't be compared, isn't everyone one mouth and two eyes." If you can do this, you can be promoted if you have the ability, don't die like this with your credential card. ”

"We now have a population of more than 250,000, and we should levy 25,000 soldiers according to the proportion. Now there are only 12,000 troops, and there is a difference of 13,000. ”

"I have already given Wei Ran an order to recruit enough people within half a year. With so many soldiers recruited at once, there are not enough generals. In this way, give Lu Yan a battalion commander and let him take the recruits. ”

Chai Ben was secretly happy in his heart, and this was actually the purpose of talking to Wen Yi so much.

Lu Yan is too young, but if he can be twenty years old this year, Chai Ben can directly promote him to be the battalion commander.

The key is that he is not an entrepreneurial veteran, Zhao Zhengzhi, Ma Yibai and others are not very old, and they are still in a high position, and no one dares to say anything.

It's still a question of seniority.

If a young person is promoted too quickly, it is easy to attract envy and ostracism, and this is a big taboo in the army.

Maybe the comrades who support you during the war are deliberately a few minutes late, and you will be gone.

But there is no problem for Wen Yi to promote him personally.

This man has fallen into the eyes of the king, and you want to do something to think carefully about the consequences.

"King, there is one more thing I don't know whether to talk about or not."

"Then don't talk about it."

“…… Hehe, what, these more than 4,000 Goguryeo troops are not bad in combat effectiveness, it's too wasteful of talents to let them farm like this, or should we recruit some of them as soldiers? ”

Recruiting Goguryeo troops? Wen Yi fell into deep thought.

The combat effectiveness of the Goguryeo people is undoubted, and the resilience is also very strong, after the Tang Dynasty destroyed Goguryeo in the previous life, there were many descendants who joined the Tang army.

Because they dared to be promoted very quickly, there were many small groups of Goguryeo generals in the Tang Army at that time, and they contributed to the prosperity of the Tang Dynasty.

The famous general Gao Xianzhi was born in Goguryeo.

These Goguryeo troops were all the elite of the garrison of Pyongyang, and their combat effectiveness was stronger, and if they could really be successfully transformed, they could greatly speed up the construction of the Tang army.

However...... Goguryeo is still there, and their families are not in the Tang Kingdom, can their loyalty be guaranteed?

Chai Ben also saw that Wen Yi was moved, and hurriedly said: "After such a toss by Lu Yan, these soldiers no longer have much loyalty to Goguryeo. ”

"As for their families...... It's even less of a problem. Give each of them a mother-in-law, divide the land to build a house, or become a father in less than a year. ”

"At that time, I don't believe that they can give up their children and a better life here and run back to Goguryeo to suffer."

"And they lost the battle and were taken prisoner, and the king of Goguryeo was killed in battle. If they go back, will the new Baekje King take them in? ”

"I think it's more likely that they were killed for the burial of the first king, and it may even affect their own families, and they can't not understand this truth."

Wen Yi nodded and said, "Okay, you can try to recruit some people from it to join the army, but you must screen carefully, and don't let people with ulterior motives get in." ”

Chai Ben said happily: "Just wait and see, I will definitely do this thing beautifully." ”

There are two things to do today, one is to ask for officials for Lu Yan, and the other is to convert Goguryeo to surrender troops. Naturally, he was very happy, and he walked back with the wind.

He did not return to the Privy Council, but went directly out of the city to a large construction site more than thirty miles away.

After dismounting, he shouted, "Where is Lu Yan? Get the hell out of here. ”

Someone immediately went to inform him, and after a while, Lu Yan came over at a trot: "Privy envoy, why do you have time to come to me." ”

Chai Ben laughed and said, "Good thing, you have to thank me today." ”

Lu Yan immediately said: "Look at what you said, even if there is no good thing, I dare not thank you." ”

Chai Ben was about to laugh, but suddenly felt a little wrong, and when he thought about it again, his nose was almost crooked, and he kicked him and said:

"Bastard, can you speak? If it doesn't work, I'll go to someone else, and I still don't believe in the position of battalion commander who the king personally accepted his fate, and I can't get a sincere thanks. ”

When Lu Yan heard that, he hurriedly grabbed his arm, and said with a smile on his face: "Don't mind, I'm just joking with you, doesn't this show that we are close." ”

Chai Ben snorted coldly, swaggered on the main seat, and then said, "Today I entered the palace to discuss matters, and by the way, I told the king about you." ”

"The king is very happy to promote you to the battalion commander. As for your soldiers, you'll have to wait until they're recruited, but you can prepare in advance. ”

Lu Yan put away his hippie smile and said gratefully: "Xie Shumi's envoy loves and promotes, and his subordinates don't forget." ”

Chai Ben said: "You thank the wrong person, it's all King Longen." ”

Lu Yan said: "The king's kindness is naturally the greatest, and your kindness is also great. ”

Chai Ben didn't bother to pay attention to his oily tone, and asked seriously: "I also told the king about your suggestion to transform and surrender troops." ”

Lu Yan's expression also became solemn.
