Chapter 337: Li Changkong's plan
In Lu Tongju's opinion, Li Changkong just used some unknown method to fool so many people to come over and serve as soldiers.
But as we all know, such things as recruiting soldiers are about willingness!
Can some crooked and evil methods be managed for a while, but can they be managed for a lifetime?
If his prediction is good, I am afraid that in a few days, Li Changkong's side will change from a crowd to a crowd.
However, the next development of events far exceeded Lu Tongju's expectations.
Far from decreasing, the number of soldiers Li Changkong recruited every day was increasing day by day.
In just one week's work, tens of thousands of recruits were recruited!
You must know that they have been busy for half a month every day, but they have recruited less than 10,000 soldiers.
It's really... Worlds apart.
Therefore, a week later, Lu Tong was completely convinced.
So, on the streets of Jizhou City, where the cold wind was raging, a shirtless, rattan-sadding, and hobbling figure attracted everyone's attention.
And this figure is Lu Tong's judgment!
Although he has a hard mouth, he speaks well!
After confirming that Li Changkong really had the ability to recruit soldiers, rather than being opportunistic, he fulfilled his original promise with peace of mind!
It's just that the distance from the Zhizhou Mansion to the post house is not close, and when he arrives at the post house with the guilt of Jing Plea, he is already shivering and cold.
"Jizhou sentenced Lu Sheng, and came to ask Uncle Li for the guilt!" Lu Tongju looked at Zhen Jian, his lips were white, his teeth were shaking, and he said.
Cai Tongzhi and Chen Xiyan on the side saw it in their eyes, and they were anxious in their hearts.
According to their meaning, it is so cold and freezing, even if you have to bear the guilt of Jing pleading, you don't have to be bare-chested.
Wearing cotton clothes is also guilty, isn't it?
But Lu Tong said that he had no sincerity when he put on cotton clothes!
How disrespectful he was to Uncle Li at the beginning, how to repay it today!
"This ...... Let me inform the General. Zhen Jian looked at Lu Tongju's appearance and felt that he might have to die in the next second.
But even so, he didn't take it upon himself to let Lu Tong be sentenced first to warm up.
After all, it was the young master he had offended in the first place! Only the young master has the right to forgive him!
If the young master doesn't forgive, hehe, he will freeze to death.
With Zhen Jian's departure, a moment later, Li Changkong and Zhen Jian appeared together.
Looking at Lu Tongju, who was standing in the wind and snow, trembling and trembling, Li Changkong raised his eyebrows and said, "Put things down and come in and talk." ”
"General Xie Li!" With Li Changkong's approval, Lu Tong was willing to put down the rattan thorns and walk into the post house.
However, as soon as he entered the post house, he fell to his knees with a thud, and said earnestly: "General Li, I didn't know Mount Tai before!" ”
"I never thought of your immortal methods, but instead speculated, but I really have no eyes."
"Today I have come to ask for my guilt and punishment."
When Li Changkong heard this, he raised his eyebrows slightly, and did not ask him for forgiveness, but asked him to punish him.
These words are beautiful, Lu Sheng's brain, I'm afraid he didn't come up with it himself.
Li Changkong's gaze moved to Chen Xiyan and Cai Tongzhi, and the meaning in his eyes was inexplicable.
Cai Tongzhi was furious at the bottom of his heart, and Chen Xiyan also laughed dryly.
"Punishment is gone."
"Lu Sheng, Ben Bo knows you, and you are indeed a practical talent."
"It's just that after so many years of depression, can't you make a difference?"
"If you don't understand the whole picture of the matter, you can make conclusions and act so recklessly, in the end, you can only harm others and yourself!"
"Talents who can really serve the country must think twice before acting!"
"Think about the country, think about the people, and finally think about yourself, so that you can make words and deeds, do you understand?"
Lu Tongju listened to Li Changkong's words, and his body, which was originally trembling from the cold, stopped.
His eyes flashed with a look of enlightenment, and then he kowtowed heavily on the ground and said, "Thank you General Li for your teachings." ”
"Well, it's teachable."
"In this case, for the sake of you and the rest of the country, this collision, Ben Bo will not care, if there is a next time, or collide with other big people, it will not be so easy to speak."
"Thank you for your kindness!"
Lu Tongju's eyes showed gratitude, and he bowed three more times.
Then he raised his head, his eyes were sincere, and he said earnestly: "But the villain still has something unclear, I hope the general can solve a problem for the villain." ”
"Come on."
"How did the general recruit so many soldiers?"
Hearing this, Cai Tongzhi and Chen Xiyan also made a deaf listen.
After all, they have exhausted their propaganda means, but even so, the people of Jizhou are not interested in joining the army, or even indifferent at all.
But when it came to Li Changkong, how could it be the other way around, and the people were simply scrambling to join the army and serve the country.
When Li Changkong heard this, his eyebrows raised slightly, and he said with a smile: "From the beginning, you have taken the wrong path!" ”
"How strong the Northern Yuan is! Tuoba Tianhan is a peerless handsome talent that is rare in a century, and now he is pouring out of the nest to attack my Northern Yuan. ”
"But, will the people of Jizhou be afraid?"
"The answer is no!"
"Since ancient times, Jizhou has had the reputation of Yan Zhaoduo's generous and tragic people!"
"As a magistrate, Lord Chen should be very clear."
"So no matter how powerful the Northern Yuan is, how terrifying Tuoba Tianhan is, for the people of Jizhou, I'm afraid it's not enough."
"After all, sixty percent of the Qianwu soldiers who followed Emperor Xiaowu to kill through Shanhaiguan were from Jizhou!"
"But since they are not afraid, and the treatment of conscription is not bad, why can't they recruit soldiers?" Lu Tong was surprised.
"Naturally, there is a problem with the way you recruit soldiers!"
"Jizhou has been the source of my cadres since ancient times, but it's a pity that a few months ago, Liu Jing rebelled, and he will make a good Jizhou and stir up a miasma."
"Since then, the people of Jizhou have actually lost some trust in the imperial court."
"In this case, you still propagandize day and night, and give speeches night and night, as if you want them to join the army."
"In this way, it will have the opposite effect and intensify the distrust in the hearts of the people!"
Hearing this, Chen Xiyan couldn't help but nod thoughtfully, and then couldn't help asking, "Then how did you do it?" ”
"Quite simply, notice the veterans in the ranks? They are all from Jizhou! ”
"One of the reasons for bringing them back this time is that they have reached the age of being discharged from the army, and they should fight for our cadres all their lives, and they should retire for a lifetime."
"Second, it's for conscription!"
"How to be treated as a soldier, it is undoubtedly more credible for these veterans to say it than to say it from our mouths!"
"In addition, the people of Jizhou are already brave, and after hearing about the battle in Northern Xinjiang, in fact, the people's willingness to join the army is very high."
"Finally, in order to thank me for my placement, the veterans will more or less publicize it in their hometown."
"With such a two-pronged approach, there will naturally be a steady stream of soldiers."
As soon as these words came out, the entire post house was suddenly silent.
