Chapter 377: Errand Soldiers, Not Troops

Huang Tianze knew that the thousands of soldiers newly recruited by Chu Xiu, although they did not wear the military uniforms of the imperial court, received unified military training and received the salary of the imperial court, this is the army!

This is why Huang Tianze reacted so much.

However, Chu Xiu was very calm at this time, he had already guessed that Huang Tianze would come to hold him accountable, but Chu Xiu didn't care, because he had already prepared the perfect excuse.

Chu Xiu said with a smile.

"General Huang, just a few days ago, I looked for you, hoping that you would cooperate with me to suppress the bandits, but at that time you told me that you have no such obligation."

"You are a local army, you want to suppress the rebels, and you want to prevent the invasion of the demons, it is impossible to cooperate with me."

"Did you say that?"

Huang Tianze was stunned for a moment, and nodded helplessly.

"This is indeed what I said, this is also the rule of the imperial court, and I do things according to the rules."

Chu Xiu said with a smile again.

"You act according to the rules of the imperial court, of course there is nothing wrong with this, I can understand it completely."

"But the bandits in Jianjiang Mansion, we can't ignore it, right?"

"Do you want to let these bandits slaughter my good people?"

Huang Tianze shook his head awkwardly.

"Of course not! The people are the most important, and we naturally want to protect the people. ”

Seeing Huang Tianze fall into his logic trap, Chu Xiu smiled and patted him on the shoulder, and then said.

"Since your army can't cooperate with me, and I want to protect the people, what's wrong with me recruiting some bandit officials now?"

"Yes, they're not armies, they're just my deposed envoys!"

"Is there anything wrong with their role being just to suppress bandits?"

Huang Tianze was completely stunned by Chu Xiu, because on the surface, Chu Xiu's statement was indeed impeccable, Huang Tianze brainstormed for a long time, but he didn't know how to refute it, so he could only scratch his head in embarrassment and said hesitantly.

"This..."

"It's like..."

Huang Tianze hesitated for a long time, and he didn't know what to say, and he also understood that he had fallen into Chu Xiu's trap.

If he is playing with his brain now, it is obvious that he can't play Chu Xiu, so let's leave quickly, inform Ji Chunshen of this matter first, and let Ji Chunshen come to get an idea.

"My lord, I'll go back and think about it."

"Well, I'll go back first."

Huang Tianze hurriedly left Chu Xiu's line, he did not return to the barracks, but rushed to Ji Chunshen's mansion without stopping.

"Ji Gongzi!"

"It's a big deal!"

Ji Chunshen looked at Huang Tianze with a panicked look, and asked impatiently.

"You're still the commander of the army, why are you so frizzy, what's the big deal that makes you so nervous?"

Huang Tianze breathed a sigh of relief, and after calming down, he told Chu Xiu about re-recruiting the army.

"Master Ji, I finally understand why Chu Xiu is so calm!"

"This Chu Xiu is really too insidious, and he played a trick for us to draw salary."

"Under the pretext that my army does not participate in the suppression of bandits, he directly formed another army himself."

"Now that thousands of people have been recruited and are undergoing military training, do you think we should take care of it now?"

When Ji Chunshen heard this, he immediately asked rhetorically.

"You're the local military commander, and he didn't inform you about it?"

Huang Tianze said helplessly.

"Chu Xiu cleverly set up a name and resolutely refused to admit that he was forming an army."

"He said that these were all deposed envoys, and their main duty was to be responsible for suppressing bandits."

"His reason is so unassailable that I can't argue with it."

After Ji Chunshen listened to Huang Tianze's words, he couldn't help but fall into deep thought, but he didn't expect Chu Xiu to make a move, and he would calculate the plan and draw his salary from the bottom of the kettle, which caused Ji Chunshen's current situation to be very passive.

The reason why the Ji family can control Jianjiang Mansion is mainly because there are two magic weapons, the first is financial power, and the second is military power.

And now, Chu Xiu has reorganized an army under a completely reasonable pretext, which is equivalent to taking away a lot of Ji Chunshen's influence.

The most important thing is that Ji Chunshen can hardly refute, who asked him to order the army not to move, unwilling to cooperate with Chu Xiu.

What made Ji Chunshen angry was that the money for Chu Xiu to form the army was still from Ji Chunshen and his big families.

This is simply using his own hoe and digging his own ancestral grave.

Ji Chunshen raised his hand violently and directly smashed the table in front of him.

"Made! Chu Xiu! ”

Ji Chunshen's heart was angry to the extreme, but after thinking about it carefully, he couldn't find any reason to refute it.

Now the plan is to urge Chu Xiu to send troops as soon as possible and kill Chu Xiu on the way to suppress the bandits, otherwise, if Chu Xiu continues to do it, then Ji Chunshen's control system in the entire Jianjiang Mansion may really collapse.

Ji Chunshen looked at Huang Tianze and said indifferently.

"You still follow the old method and stand still."

"No matter what Chu Xiu says, you just don't support him, I will find a way to urge Chu Xiu to come out."

"Didn't Chu Xiu form a new army? Then let Chu Xiu use the newly formed army to suppress the bandits! ”

Huang Tianze understood Ji Chunshen's intentions, and without saying anything more, he silently left Ji Chunshen's mansion.

And Ji Chunshen hurriedly found Zhang Jingzhong.

In the dark room, there were only two people, Ji Chunshen and Zhang Jingzhong.

Ji Chunshen said calmly.

"You've got to speed up a little bit lately and kill a little more."

"We must create as much public pressure as possible."

Zhang Jingzhong nodded and said.

"Don't worry, I'll slaughter a few more villages tomorrow."

"I don't believe that Chu Xiu can still sit still."

Ji Chunshen thought about it, judging from the current situation, just slaughtering a few villages, I'm afraid it would be difficult to provide any more pressure, so he could only choose to attack himself, or a few other families.

"In this way, we and the Zhao family, tomorrow there will be a dart bottom, you will disguise yourself as a robber and rob us."

"After I finish doing it, I will unite with several other major families to put pressure on Chu Xiu, so that Chu Xiu can go out of the city as soon as possible to suppress the bandits."

"As long as Chu Xiu goes out of the city and wants to kill Chu Xiu, it's very simple."

Zhang Jingzhong smiled excitedly, he had been waiting for this moment for a long time, he heard that Chu Xiu was just a peak of the Dragon Elephant Realm, and he was also a master of the Earth Shaking Realm, the gap was still very large, he was completely sure that he could kill Chu Xiu.

The contradictions and hatred between Chu Xiu and Ji Chunshen have already intensified, if Zhang Jingzhong can kill Chu Xiu, wouldn't he have made a great contribution?

Zhang Jingzhong said excitedly.

"Childe, don't worry, as long as Chu Xiu goes out of the city next, I am 100% sure that I can kill him."

"You just wait and see, I'll take his head for credit!"
