Ming Zuo

Chapter 606 Slaves
"Brother Zijinliang, my younger brother is late!"

Under the eyes of everyone, Li Zicheng knelt in front of Wang Ziyong, weeping like rain and wailing endlessly.

Just when Wang Ziyong's army was about to be wiped out, Li Zicheng finally arrived.

Wang Ziyong, who survived the catastrophe, had a different view of this rising general.

Wang Ziyong's life has come to the end, but he can smile at Jiuquan.

"I think back then, the thirty-six battalion alliance, what a grandeur! I thought that all the brothers would be able to make a career if they worked together. Now it seems that the loyal ones are only the generals!"

Li Zicheng didn't answer this, but said: "My younger brother has already looked for a doctor for Brother Zijinliang. From now on, there will be brothers in each battalion, and the officers and soldiers will definitely go and never return."

Wang Ziyong just shook his head.

"I can't make it! In the future, the matter of killing officials and rebelling can only be up to you."

Just when Li Zicheng was about to say something, Wang Ziyong waved his hand, took his last breath, and said to the old brothers under him: "From now on, you must follow the command of the general Chuang, and follow his orders. If there is any violation, We don't recognize him as a brother."

Wang Ziyong's subordinates agreed one after another, and everyone wept bitterly, knowing that he was arranging funeral arrangements.

Wang Ziyong's gaze had already begun to slacken, he grabbed Li Zicheng's hand, and finally ordered: "These are brothers who will accompany you in life and death, and they are the most loyal. From now on, you can use them at ease. They dare not disobey your orders. I will help you."

After speaking, Wang's self-use breath began to stop, and his palms drooped weakly.

Everyone around looked at it and wept loudly.

On that day, Wang Ziyong, the leader of the [-]th Battalion of the Northwest Rebel Army, died, and all his soldiers and horses returned to Li Zicheng.

Li Zicheng also relied on absorbing the soldiers and horses used by Wang himself to increase his power, and he was already able to stand shoulder to shoulder with other leaders from all walks of life.

After absorbing Wang's own power, Li Zicheng reorganized his subordinates and established the front, rear, left, right, and middle five battalions.

What is eye-catching is that Liang Yue was appointed by him as the general of the former battalion, with more than [-] soldiers and horses under his tent, overwhelming all the generals and taking the lead.

..........................................

Jeju Island, Musepo, [-] miles west of Daejeong County.

Although it is daytime, the surrounding area is desolate and remote, and there is no one inhabited.

No matter what you do in this kind of place, you will not attract attention.

Shen Daoxun and Li Chong accompanied a middle-aged general anxiously waiting for the beach.

After a while, a white sail appeared between the sea and the sky in the distance.

Not long after, a large ship came into view.

Soon, one ship turned into ten ships, and then dozens of ships.Connecting in a line, they came through the waves, and the momentum was so great that it was shocking.

"coming."

The three people on the bank were so excited that they couldn't help but stepped forward.If the sea is not under their feet, they can't wait to meet the boat.

The fleet at sea also saw them, and immediately sent ten large ships to approach them.

When the two sides met, seeing that the person from Shandong was not Liao Zhongjian, Shen Daoxun and Li Chong couldn't help but be more careful.

"Did you dare to ask the adults to respect the taboo?"

The other party said with a smile: "I am Chong Hua, Deputy Minister of Foreign Affairs of Shandong Province."

The three North Koreans expressed their respect, and Shen Daoxun also introduced the middle-aged general.

"This is my old general Li Yuan of North Korea. He was ordered by Mr. Shen Qiyuan, who was sentenced by Cao Cao, to come to contact the angel of the upper kingdom."

Chonghua understood that this was the leading general arranged by the North Korean side.

After a rough look, I didn't find anything special about this person.

But he doesn't care, as long as this old man Li Yuan is obedient and doesn't add trouble to the planning.

"This is General Zhang Guanhua, deputy director of the Recruit Training Department of the Shandong New Army Operations and Training Department. From now on, he will be responsible for training the Korean rebels here."

Compared with old man Li Yuan, Zhang Guanhua was much tougher and heroic, with an undeniable strength.

"General Li, where are your troops placed?"

Before Li Yuan came to Jeju Island, he had already been repeatedly told by Shen Qiyuan that he must be careful with his life.

Therefore, Elder Li Yuan was very polite, and hurriedly said: "The two thousand men and horses have been placed on the left and right. The general has an order, and the final general will gather immediately."

Zhang Guanhua said: "Let them come quickly and carry the equipment."

Hearing that Shandong had brought weapons over, Shen Daoxun, Li Chong and others were pleasantly surprised.

Elder Li Yuan even called his subordinates and rushed to gather the troops.

Not long after, the forest in the distance was chaotic and full of people, and more than two thousand beggars soon ran out.

awful!
Terrible!

Seeing the troops prepared by the North Korean side, Chonghua and Zhang Guanhua almost doubted life.

This is a soldier?

It is said that the gang of beggars are praising them.

None of these people were well-dressed, and all of them were sallow and emaciated, walking unsteadily, and their bare feet were covered with mud.

All of them bent over and slumped, looking timid.

I really wonder if they would rush away when they heard the gunshots.

"Isn't it for you to prepare elites, what is this?"

Chong Hua questioned, almost furious.

Although it has long been known from the materials that the North Koreans are unreliable in their work, it is only after seeing them in the field that they understand how unreliable they are.

His anger made the three of Shen Daoxun flustered.

As the chief general, Li Yuan explained repeatedly.

"It's not that the last general and others are ineffective. There are really many people who go up and down. Your lords have worked hard, but these two thousand people were still secretly transported from slaves who concealed their household registrations."

Chonghua is not a soldier, so he can only look at Zhang Guanhua in such a situation.

Although Zhang Guanhua was discouraged, he also knew that the North Korean side had indeed tried their best.

For the current plan, we can only work hard to plan and see if we can make these slaves change.

But looking at the precarious state of these people, Zhang Guanhua didn't let them get on the ship to carry the goods immediately.

He was very afraid that these people would not only be unable to move the goods, but would be exhausted instead.

"Eat first, and then work when you are full."

Following his order, the cooks on the boat came to the shore and set up pots and stoves one after another.

The matter is urgent, and the fastest thing at this time is of course potato flour.

This thing is also the ration that the new army always has the most.

So much so that many soldiers of the new army would throw up as soon as they heard the name of potato flour.

But when the scent wafted from the pot, the slaves stretched their necks one by one.

They swore that they had never smelled such a fragrance in their entire life.

But this must be a delicacy for the old men, and it's not their turn.It is already a great gift to let them smell it.

Zhang Guanhua observed silently from the side, and found that although these slaves were hungry and salivating for the food in the pot, none of them dared to make any changes, and all of them squatted obediently in place.

This resigned attitude really gave him a headache.

Can this kind of slaves who have lost their sense of right and wrong and subjective initiative really be trained into a powerful army?
If not, wouldn't it be a waste of Shandong's resources?
