Chapter 307: Gathering the hearts of the people
Ma Zheng lowered his head and looked at the head of Lu Jubei, who was rolling to the ground and facing the sky, and after feeling Wu Nian's eyes, his body trembled slightly.
He knew what he should do at this time, such as begging for mercy or something. But his lips moved for a long time, and he didn't say a word at all.
Isn't it too ugly to kneel down and beg for mercy at this time? And. Even if he begged for mercy, Wu Nian might not let him go.
"It's quite bold." Wu Nian smiled, the chill on his face dissipated, replaced by a little warmth.
"Do you want to die here, or do you want to fight the Mengyuan people?" Wu Nian asked.
The pressure that almost crushed me dissipated abruptly. Ma Zheng was relieved, raised his head, and said quickly: "I want to fight with the Mengyuan people." ”
"You can follow Long Ji in the future." Wu Nian nodded, stretched out his finger and pointed at Long and said.
"I'm a lieutenant. In the future, you and I will be both up and down, and brothers. Ryuji also laughed, showing kindness to Tsushima.
"Captain." Ma Zheng didn't dare to slack off, and bent over with his fists clenched.
"Go back to the barracks and control your soldiers. I went with Long Ji to the city gate tower to deal with it for the night. If there is anything, I will talk about it tomorrow. ”
After Wu Nian said a word to Ma Zheng, he said, "Collect the troops." ”
The ironclad soldiers who surrounded the barracks, after receiving the order, gathered together and followed Wu Nian to the north city gate.
"Mr. Lu, you almost took me into the gutter." Ma Zheng looked at Wu Nian, who was leaving calmly, the cold sweat he was holding back finally flowed, he looked down at Lu Jubei's head on the ground, and shook his head with a wry smile.
Divide one side?
Fart!
How can a character like Wu Nian have sand in his eyes? We don't have a chance.
Ma Zheng now has no doubts about Wu Nian's slashing of the commander of Meng Yuan and a tie with Wan Yan Xian.
He had just confronted Wu Nian and felt the pressure.
What kind of person, what kind of momentum does he have. Wu Nian is by no means an idle person.
After smiling bitterly, Ma Zheng bent down and personally collected Lu Jubei's body, in the end, he would bury Lu Jubei well.
After that, there were no more waves, and the night passed quickly.
Early the next morning.
The soldiers in Chengshan Fort got up silently, cooked silently, and then stayed in their own rooms, and no one dared to go out.
Beishan Fort is not far from Chengshan Fort, and the military households have heard of Wu Nian's prestige.
For Wu Nian, who is also from a military family, they all have a good impression. But after all, these days, Chengshanbao and Wu Nian are enemies.
Now that Wu Nian occupies Chengshan Fort, the hearts of the military households are a little afraid.
One in Chengshan Fort is located in a medium-level mansion.
Yan Shan was playing with a big knife in the yard. He is fifty-six years old this year, with silver hair and much worse health, but his knife skills are getting more and more powerful.
It's that the older you get, the more demonic you become.
He was a veteran of the army and had a great reputation in Chengshan Fort. Especially now that the officials in Chengshan Fort have fled.
In the years when Lu Jubei and Ma Zheng occupied Chengshan Fort, if they had anything, they would also ask Yan Shan's opinion.
Yan Shan felt that Wu Nian might send someone to find him.
He has some expectations for this. He has been a soldier all his life, and when he is old, he watched the Mengyuan people go south and occupy Liaodong.
The entire Liaodong generals have been lowered, but only Wu Nian has not descended.
If nothing else, just rush to this point. This kid is a hero. If I can help this kid, it will definitely feel good.
"Knock knock." Yan Shan's set of knife techniques has just finished playing, and he hasn't had time to rest yet. There was a sharp knock on the door.
Yan Shan waved his hand and motioned for the family to go back to the house. He turned around and opened the door and saw a soldier.
A good soldier in iron armor.
"But Yan Shan, Old Man Yan?" The ironclad soldier asked politely with his fists clenched.
"It's me." Yan Shan nodded.
"I am General Wu's soldier. He sent me to invite you to the Yamen of the Hundred Households. The ironclad soldier simply explained his intentions.
"Good. Wait for me to clean up. Yan Shan smiled on his old face, nodded at the ironclad soldier, and went back to the house. When he came out, he put on a half-worn battle jacket, and the steel knife hung from his waist, and he was in good spirits.
Soon after, Yan Shan and the ironclad soldiers entered the hall of the Hundred Households Yamen. The ironclad soldiers didn't go in, Yan Shan walked in with his head held high.
Yan Shan glanced at it, and there were more than a dozen people sitting in the hall. Three he didn't know, one was Ma Zheng, and the rest were his old brothers.
An old military household with prestige in Chengshan Fort.
"Meet General Wu." Yan Shan raised his head and looked at Wu Nian who was sitting on the main seat, his eyes were a little amazing, although he knew that Wu Nian was very young, but he didn't expect to be so young, only in his early twenties.
What a hero.
"Mr. Yan." Wu Nian was quite polite in the face of this old soldier, stood up and hugged his fists, and then invited the other party to sit down.
"Everyone is here. I'll just get straight to the point. Wu Nian raised his head and looked at everyone, and then introduced first: "Ma Zheng won't say much. This is Long Ji, my school captain, with a thousand soldiers. He was later responsible for the defense of Chengshan Fort. ”
"This is Cao Ding, Mr. Cao. He was in charge of civil affairs. ”
"Beishan Fort, Chengshan Fort, Tiancheng Fort. I will use these three hundred households as the foundation to fight against Mengyuan. The ultimate goal was to expel the Tartars and recover Liaodong. ”
"In the future, there will be no distinction between military and civilian households with me. There are only households. For the fertile fields outside Chengshan Fort. Since those who were in charge of the government have fled, their fields naturally cannot be wasted. I'm in charge. Divide it to the original military households of Chengshan Fort. When spring begins, you can reclaim the land and start farming. ”
"Also. There will be some remodeling inside the castle, and 15,000 people will move in from outside the city. There will be a bit of chaos at first, but I promise it will settle down soon. ”
"All of you are old soldiers, and you are people of prestige in the fort. I hope you can help me and stabilize the people's hearts. ”
Wu Nian didn't have any temptation, he just stood up and hugged his fists and saluted, and didn't bring anything else, only a heart, a sincere heart.
The old military households are all old and sophisticated, and they have all guessed the reason why Wu Nian is looking for them, and they have long been mentally prepared.
Besides.
Wu Nian is very sincere, and he divides the fertile land, which is good for them and these military households.
Those who were in charge were gone, and they couldn't let the fields go to waste.
Isn't it?
Finally, there are also some old military households who are very hostile to the Mengyuan people. For example, Yan Shan.
Yan Shan took a deep breath, stood up, hugged his fist at Wu Nian, and said loudly: "It is incumbent." ”
"It's incumbent." Seeing this, the rest of the old military households also stood up one after another and said solemnly.
"Thank you." Wu Nian was still very sincere, and hugged his fists to thank him.
Ma Zheng watched from the sidelines, and was very emotional. Lu Jubei encircled these old military households, but it took a lot of energy.
But Wu Nian only used a few words.
This person is really different.
Lu Jubei is just a man, while Wu Nian is a real general with great prestige.
He wants to rule Chengshan Fort, and it is easy.
The military families naturally supported him.
