The Shuoxi Army has strict military discipline. Although there was no one in the battalion for many days after Yan Lin died violently last year, the soldiers in the battalion are still disciplined in the past six months. The existing army of 80,000 troops had been reorganized. When Chu Feisheng was reorganizing the army, Qin Wan took Bai Ying to tidy up the tent of the Chinese army. When Lin Xugui first came to the camp, he didn't dare to live here directly until Yan Chi rebelled. After the news came, he lived in the Chinese army's big tent in a grand manner. It was only more than two months before and after, so the decoration in the barracks has not changed, and it is only necessary to collect Lin Xugui's personal belongings and clean them up again. You can.
After noon, Chu Feicheng entered the meeting hall with the current general booklet.
Putting all the brochures on the case, Chu Feicheng reported, "Lin Xugui really wanted to dismantle our original establishment. He disrupted all the battalion departments and reorganized them, and all the generals changed places. Now that His Highness is back, he only needs to reorganize according to the original establishment. Lin Xugui has bought many people. Among the ten mighty generals above rank six we rescued, seven of the generals who stayed in the camp were bought by him. Generals below rank six , six people were rescued, and thirty-four people who remained in the camp were imprisoned, and three died because of excessive torture. The soldiers below, after the president, was there anyone who was designated by Lin Xugui as The traitor was hanged, and another hundred people were imprisoned for inappropriate speech. Now, most of the imprisoned have some injuries, and now they have been released and resettled."
Chu Feicheng sighed at this point, "The lost ones were thrown out of the camp, and the last generals have already sent people to find them and have them buried with honor."
When Lin Xugui first arrived in Shuoxi, he did not dare to murder the generals of Shuoxi. It was only when the situation became more and more serious that he dared to take the initiative. Originally, he had captured the villain of Shuoxi's army and was going to be sent to Dingzhou for trial. But he didn't want Yan Chi and Yu Qi and others to intercept and rescue them halfway, so that many people escaped. In the end, Lin Xugui had no choice but to lock these people in the Shuoxi camp, and when nothing happened, he would use torture to extract confessions. Let these people write down unfavorable words against Yan Lin and Yan Chi, thinking so much about going back to the capital to frame Yan Chi and his son.
Yan Chi sat on the main seat, his brows were slightly wrinkled, and his eyes were filled with coldness.
The Shuoxi army suffers a lot of casualties every year, but these casualties have always been to defend against the enemy, but this time, these people all died because of Lin Xugui.
Only one ear was cut off, it was too cheap for him!
Yan Chi quickly regained his composure, "The wounded should be healed properly. Don't worry about anything else. Both Lin Xugui and Lin Xie will be sent to the prison."
After a slight pause, Yan Chi warned, "Don't let them die."
Chu Feicheng nodded, "Yes, the last general also thought of it."
After saying this, Bai Feng walked in from outside, "Master, the generals outside want to see you."
Yan Chi had just entered the camp, and most of them had met face-to-face, but it was not enough to have a face-to-face meeting. Apart from being rescued by Chu Feicheng and others, the other generals also wanted to see Yan Chi urgently. Yan Chi nodded, " Let them in...”
Outside the meeting hall, about thirty soldiers stood. Among them, the lowest rank was from the sixth rank, and many of them had just been released. They knew that Yan Chi had returned, even if they were tortured out by Lin Xugui with all their clothes on. In order to be at ease, he had to rush to see Yan Chi for his injury.
Yan Chi let everyone in, and these more than thirty soldiers entered the meeting hall one after another. Among these people, most of them were fierce-tempered, because they suffered a lot from opposing Lin Xugui. Yes, countless anger and grievances have already accumulated in the bottom of my heart. At this moment when everyone is meeting Yan Chi again in this familiar meeting hall, more than half of them are red-eyed. .
Although there were many generals in Shuoxi's army, they were the middle-level generals who Yan Chi was most familiar with. Yan Chi looked at the eyes full of tears and the familiar faces with scars, and he felt dull in his heart. When the pain came, he helped everyone up himself, and his voice became slightly hoarse, "I have made you suffer. It has been difficult for you for the past six months. I am very grateful to see that you are still standing here."
"As long as we can wait until His Highness comes back, we won't be suffering!"
"Yes, Your Highness, we already know that the old prince was murdered by the emperor, Your Highness, how can we avenge the old prince's revenge?!"
With hatred brewing in everyone's eyes, Yan Chi felt even more grateful, "Qianzhou General Soldier Jiang Heying has been killed, and the next step is to settle accounts with the emperor."
There was a moment of silence in the meeting hall. When it comes to fighting against the emperor, these ranks are not low in the Shuoxi army, but they are very inconspicuous in the court. What happened? In the past, Shuoxi's army was loyal to the imperial court, and Yan Lin and Yan Chi never overstepped. Now that Yan Chi has been designated as a traitor, although they want to follow Yan Chi, they still have some secret worries in their hearts.
Seeing this look in everyone's eyes, Yan Chi said, "I came back today and saw that everyone is still willing to follow. I am very grateful from the bottom of my heart, but... the situation is different from before. Right now, I still need to make it clear to you. From now on, the Shuoxi Army does not belong to the Son of Heaven. This king wants to stand on his own in Lincheng, Prince Rui's Mansion in the west, and rule Shuoxi from now on. If there is spare power, Jianzhou in the south, Qianzhou in the south, Dingzhou and Mengzhou in the east, will be possible in the future. Why, and the White Wolf Pass is still our responsibility, but the Lin'an court has nothing to do with us, so the court will definitely not tolerate it, and at that time, most of them will send troops to attack. At that time, the Shuoxi army may be attacked by the enemy. You are the pillars of the humerus in Shuoxi's army. In the future, there will be many times when you need to charge forward. Today, the king is so determined. Whether you want to continue to follow depends entirely on your own will. If you stay, you will not have high officials and rich salary. Pay ten times the military salary in return for years of hard work."
Yan Chi did not speak quickly, so everyone heard every word clearly, Yan Chi's plan, the future plight of the Shuoxi Army, everyone also heard clearly, Yan Chi was silent for a moment, "From now on, until noon tomorrow, everyone from Chu Feicheng to the last soldiers can go or stay as they please, but after noon tomorrow, if anyone leaves the camp, they will be regarded as defectors! They will be dealt with according to military law!"
Yan Chi looked at everyone with serious eyes, "These words will later become a call to action and issued to every camp. The soldiers below must consider it, and you must weigh it carefully. The Shuoxi camp has been thanks to your hard work over the years. , whether you stay or stay in the future, this king will always remember your hard work and cherish it in my heart."
Tears glistened in the eyes of everyone who Yan Chi said, but Yan Chi raised his lips a moment later, "Okay, the wounded should seek medical attention quickly, and other people will help General Chu to rectify his troops, at least for today, you are still the same. General of the king! Go down, have a banquet today, and comfort everyone."
There was silence in the hall for a while, and then someone slowly bowed and retreated. When everyone left, Yan Chi also sighed.
Chu Feicheng said, "Why is your Highness doing this, even if you don't say these things, everyone is absolutely willing to follow His Highness."
Yan Chi waved his hand, "Now it's different from the past. Shuoxi's 100,000 soldiers will always be north of the Yanjiang River. If they want to stay in Shuoxi, at least they will be unfair to their families. These words must be said today. How about Choose, let's see them."
After a moment of silence, Yan Chi said, "Call Fangqin back, leave Bailangguan to the deputy general for now, I want to see him before returning to Xilin."
Chu Feicheng responded, and then turned around to go out. The army still needs to be put in order. There will be a banquet tonight, and a big banquet for the whole army. In the past, they were treated only after winning battles. His return is almost the same as winning a battle!
Yan Chi discussed some miscellaneous matters with Yu Qi, Mr. Qi and others in the meeting hall before returning to the Chinese military tent. As soon as he entered the room, he saw Qin Wan sleeping on the couch next to the bed. Yan Chi frowned. Wrinkled, he hurriedly stepped forward and hugged Qin Wan, he carried Qin Wan to the back hall, just as he put Qin Wan on the bed, Qin Wan woke up.
She looked at Yan Chi in a daze, "Why are you back?"
Yan Chi smiled, "I came back after I finished speaking, you didn't sleep all night last night, why didn't you come and lie down on the bed?"
Qin Wan shook her head and sat up, "Is it all arranged? I want to wait for you to come back. You must be busy just now."
Yan Chi nodded Qin Wan's nose, "Silly girl, it's still early, why don't you sleep for a while?"
It was indeed still early at this time, Qin Wan hesitated for a moment, but nodded, it was nothing to stay up all night, the difficulty was that she had been driving all night in heavy armor last night, and after returning to the main camp, she was busy again, and arrived here For a while, I really couldn't hold on anymore.
"That's good...then I'll sleep for an hour, remember to call me." Qin Wan said and said, "Aren't you going to rest?"
Yan Chi smiled, "I'm not tired, I used to have trouble sleeping for three or four nights."
Qin Wan knew that Yan Chi would come back to see her when she had time, so she didn't persuade her anymore, she lay down and covered her with the quilt, and soon fell asleep.
In the dream, it was the biting cold wind above the mountain ridge last night. She watched the blood flow into a river in the valley. The blood color was almost exactly the same as the night when the people of the previous generation died, but the blood color in the sky was about to drown her. At that moment, a hand suddenly held her, the joints of that hand were slender and strong, warm and thick, Qin Wan felt that the splashing blood was blown away by the wind...
She saw the victorious smiles of Shuoxi's army, saw the fortress-like majesty of the main camp, and saw the thousands of troops and horses bowing to Yan Chi, shouting "His Highness Prince Rui is a thousand years old", and the scenes flashed by. In front of him, the unbearable and fear in Qin Wan's heart dissipated, and the warm hand took her, passing the eyes of the soldiers of the main battalion, and walked step by step outside the tent of the Chinese army, he said , seen the princess—
Qin Wan didn't know how long she had been asleep, but when she opened her eyes, she saw that the sky outside had darkened. She felt a jolt in her heart, and knew that Yan Chi deliberately didn't wake her up. After sleeping for half a day, Qin Wan's The spirit is back, but at the moment, he is a little lazy and doesn't want to move.
The tent of the Chinese army is very simple, but because it is a stone house, it is very warm. There is a stone wall between the inside and the outside, and the wall is covered with red soil. Because it is a handsome tent, there are some cloth paintings for decoration. It also looked magnificent, Qin Wan turned his eyes to look at the door, and could vaguely see the dim light outside, so he knew that Yan Chi was not in the tent at the moment, Qin Wan thought that Yan Chi was still busy, so he simply turned over and planned to Closing and rejuvenating.
But at this moment, a melodious and powerful singing voice reached Qin Wan's ears.
Qin Wan didn't hear clearly at first, but later, the singing became louder and louder, and soon, Qin Wan heard the lyrics...
"No clothes? I'm in the same robe as my son. The king Yu Xingshi repaired my spear. I have the same hatred as my son."
"Does it mean no clothes? I share the same water with my son. The king Yu Xingshi, repair my spear and halberd. Work together with my son."
"Don't you say you have no clothes? You wear the same clothes as your son..."
The singing became louder and louder, as if more and more people joined in. The songs of soldiers in the army were not soft and beautiful, on the contrary, there was a kind of desolation and sadness. Qin Wan listened and got up to change clothes quickly. The first talk was about the ballad of the ancient war, about the friendship between the soldiers who sacrificed their lives for the same enemy, Qin Wan felt a rush of blood in his heart, and hurried out of the room, only Bai Ying was guarding outside, seeing Qin Wan coming out, Bai Ying Busy also got up.
"Princess, are you asleep?"
Qin Wan nodded and walked out, "Where did the singing come from?"
Bai Ying hurriedly said, "There is a big banquet in the army tonight. In the afternoon, General Chu reorganized his troops and horses, and took some people who were bought by Lin Xugui before. Right now, he has just settled down in the army. Right now, His Highness and General Chu are all On the other side of the school grounds, I am comforting everyone."
For more than half a year, the generals in Shuoxi's army were really not easy. Seeing this, Qin Wan said, "Let's go quietly and have a look."
Bai Ying nodded and followed Qin Wan towards the school grounds in the southwest direction. The closer they got, the louder the voice of the ballad became. It was originally a passionate and tragic ballad, but now thousands of troops and horses are singing together, the scene is even more shocking. Wan and Bai Ying walked to the edge of the school grounds, and from a distance, they saw clusters of bonfires lit on the grounds, soldiers wearing thick military uniforms sitting on the ground, and there were some coarse food in front of each of them.
Although the food is rough, everyone has a glass of wine to drink tonight, so the morale of the soldiers is even higher. After singing the first song, the second song came. A little girl like Wan was a little moved.
Passing across the extremely empty square, Qin Wan saw the high platform in the north of the school field at a glance. At the moment, there were also seats on the high platform, but no one was on the seat. Everyone stood in front of the high platform, as if they were Looking at the scene where the soldiers and generals had fun together tonight, Qin Wan vaguely saw Yan Chi's especially handsome figure.
"Princess, Your Highness has issued a call to action, ordering all soldiers to stay and stay at will. Before noon tomorrow, as long as they report to leave, they will be rewarded with ten times the military pay for their years of hard work. This time is not an ordinary confrontation with the enemy, so there are still many People are hesitant."
Qin Wan frowned slightly, but looked at the figure in the distance, but said firmly, "Not many people will leave! If I were them, I would choose to follow such a king!"
