Chapter 340: Keeping Prisoners

Chapter 340: Keeping Prisoners
At night, the cold wind is biting;
In the military camp, a man was carefully wiping every part of the armor in his hand, and his fingertips were rubbing every dent on it.
"Heh, let me tell you, were you so careful when you were hugging a girl under a red tent?"
The team leader opened the curtain and walked into the tent. After sitting down on the blanket, he took off his shoes.
Waves of white air immediately rose from his two feet.
The smell of feet suddenly filled the air.
But the man who was wiping his armor didn't take it seriously. He seemed to have been used to this kind of scene for a long time, and said instead:
"When I entered the red tent, the sisters hugged me, and I felt like a hungry person who had finally gotten a meat bun. I wanted to swallow it in one gulp, but I didn't bother to chew it carefully."
"That's true, haha."
The team leader then pointed to the black dragon flag placed in the tent and said:
"Starting tomorrow, you will also carry the flag."
This team is originally the flag bearer. The man was called here from the prison soldiers and he already knew what role he would have to play on the battlefield in the future.
"Yes."
The captain rubbed his hands and asked:
"I heard that you were supposed to be sent to Shengle?"
"Yes, that's what the escort officer said."
Ran Min was supposed to be sent to Shengle, but because Jingnan Hou sent troops, [-] Jingnan troops set off as the main army, and a group of prisoners were also dispatched from the rear to escort some military supplies. Ran Min was also sent forward. I was called up, but I couldn't go to Shengle.
After the military supplies were escorted, the various departments of the Eastern Expedition Army, which had suffered heavy losses, began to select young men from the prisoners to supplement themselves. Ran Min was selected into the original Forbidden Army because he was from Tiancheng County and spoke with the accent of Tiancheng County. One part is included in the flag-bearing team.
He did not achieve any military exploits, but due to good luck, he was transferred directly from the prison soldiers to the regular army when he was short of men.
"What did you do?"
"kill."
"Haha, it's not illegal to kill someone here, it's still considered military merit."
"Yes."
"Actually, I can't bear it anymore. In the past few months, I often have nightmares at night, dreaming that the Wangjiang River is filled with the corpses of our Yan army. Alas.
When I close my eyes, I feel like I see them shouting in the river, they are cold, they are frozen, they are unwilling, calling me, I want to avenge them. "
In the Battle of Wangjiang, the Yan army suffered heavy losses, and the left army was almost destroyed. Tens of thousands of Yan army soldiers were driven down the river, and countless people drowned.
"almost."
Ran Min said and continued to wipe his armor.
"Yes, it's coming soon. When the time comes, we have to show those Chu people and savages what it means to be a real man from the Yan Kingdom."
Ran Min did not continue to echo. He arrived later and had not experienced the tragic defeat, so it was difficult for him to truly resonate with the inner grudges of these veterans who had experienced the previous war.
"Do you like this armor?"
Ran Min nodded and said, "I like it."
"Work hard to kill the enemy tomorrow. Sooner or later, it will truly belong to you."
Ran Min nodded,
Said very calmly:
"Ah."
……
During this period, Prince Cheng's Mansion in Yingdu had long been accustomed to Jingnan Hou's style of doing things.
Compared with when the eldest prince was the head coach of the Eastern Expeditionary Army, there was room for mutual respect between the two parties, but the Jingnan Marquis of the Yan people was extremely direct.
In the eyes of the Marquis, the so-called Prince Cheng was nothing more than the magistrate of Yingdu, and the civil and military personnel of the original Chengguo were nothing more than the chief bookkeeper, yamen servant, and the like.
Chengguo's army was directly disrupted by him and incorporated into the Yan army. He didn't care whether the people of Chengguo would think you were "killing the donkey", and he didn't care if others criticized you for being too ostentatious. Not pretty.
In the recent past, the continuous military mobilization and defense changes are also like a kind of training and integration, allowing all troops to get used to Tian Wujing's command style.
It also made Chengguo, from Situ Yu down to local officials, familiar with this custom.
The original Chengguo Imperial Palace is now the Prince Cheng’s Mansion.
The contemporary prince Situ Yu was sitting there listening to the lecture.
The one who gave him lectures was Hanlin from the original palace.
Even though he is no longer the emperor, the prince is still young after all and needs to go to school. Moreover, Situ Yu's biological mother is also Situ Lei's wife and the former Empress Dacheng is still there, and she has extremely high requirements for Situ Yu's studies.
Of course, all the officials who were capable of doing things were so busy that the wind was blowing at their feet during this period. The orders issued by Jingnan Marquis were like reminders, so that they did not dare to neglect in the slightest.
After the tide recedes, you can clearly see who is not wearing underpants. This old Hanlin, who is over forty years old, has no knowledge of secular affairs, so he can only come to be Situ Yu's "sir".
Situ Yu listened very carefully, although he didn't think what the teacher said would be of any use.
But for him at this time, there is no need to learn anything really useful anymore. In other words, you no longer live for your own whims, but for how you are in the eyes of others.
Only by living a well-behaved and peaceful life can you live a long life, and this hereditary and irreplaceable princely status can continue in the Situ family.
Perhaps this is the greatest expectation that his mother has for him.
The lecture is over,
The maid brought white fungus soup for midnight snack.
Old Hanlin sat at the table, picked up the spoon and started eating without being polite.
Situ Yu sat next to him and ate with his teacher.
"Your Majesty, are you bored listening to my lectures?"
Old ministers, in private situations, will still call you His Majesty Situ Yu instead of Prince.
"Why did Master Cui say this? Master Cui has profound knowledge. It is a great honor for me to be taught by my master."
"Ha ha."
Old Hanlin shook his head and said:
"Your Majesty, you are still young. You don't have to live in such a bleak way. It will only damage your own vitality."
Another way of saying this is: overthinking can seriously harm your body.
Situ Yu did not refute, but said: "Thank you, master, for reminding me."
"When the war is over, Your Majesty should still submit a letter to Yanjing to pay homage to His Majesty the Yan State. The first letter will definitely be rejected, and the second letter will definitely be rejected as well. Continue until His Majesty the Yan Emperor agrees. until."
When he said these words, the vicissitudes of life on Old Hanlin's face seemed to disappear all of a sudden, and his cloudy eyes revealed a shrewdness.
Situ Yu was stunned for a moment, then stood up and made a gesture of being taught.
"Being a teacher is one of the things that teaches people and solves their doubts. In the final analysis, this practice of learning is no different from the craftsmanship taught by a folk master to his apprentices. The ultimate goal is to enable them to settle down and live in this world. Therefore, I have to say these things.”
"Yes, Situ Yuhoujiao."
"The current His Majesty of the Yan Kingdom is a hero with a broad mind. It is an opportunity for His Majesty to stand with this person.
At this time, there is no way to think about restoring the country and restoring national integrity. At least for now, there is no hope.
Therefore, I ask Your Majesty to stop worrying about other things and be an obedient minister with peace of mind. In this way, in 20 years, 40 years, a period of time, or a hundred years later, you can always give future generations a chance to make a comeback when the situation is turbulent. "
"Yes, Situ Yu is being taught."
"It is enough to keep the fiefdom first, even if it is just a Yingdu, so Your Majesty knew what was going on and cooperated with Emperor Yan to put on this play well.
What do the people of Yan want now? Isn’t it just a home for the world? Let’s give it to him. Let’s follow him, stick to him, obey him, and make him embarrassed to cut us again.
As long as we don't go to Yanjing and live idle, we have some hope. "
"But the war is not over yet, or even the specific direction, Gu Ye..."
"Your Majesty, I don't know anything about military affairs, but these days, my office has often walked around on the streets and on the city walls. I'm just a layman watching the excitement. I feel that the weather here at this time is very good. of.
Although Marquis Jingnan is a bit stronger, such a chaotic situation really needs an iron hand to clean up as soon as possible. "
Situ Yu nodded.
at this time,
Drums sounded.
The drum sounded from the commander's tent outside the city at first, and then the military drums from all walks of life were beaten one after another, extending to other camps outside the city. At the same time, the big drums in the city also echoed.
"This is...beating drums to gather generals."
Old Hanlin stood up, clenched his fists, sat down again, clenched his fists again, and tried to punch the stone table, but he hesitated and gave up;
However, he still couldn't hide his excitement and waved his fist.
"Finally we have to fight, get rid of them, get rid of those savage beasts, get rid of them!"
Old Hanlin's home is east of Wangjiang River.
……
As the drums sounded, each camp began to move quickly. Whether they were regular soldiers, auxiliary soldiers or civilians, they were all summoned under the instructions of their respective superiors.
Those who should wear armor were put on armor, and the war horses were pulled out of the stables.
One by one, generals above the rank of generals rushed from their respective stations to the commander's tent in the Chinese army.
Many people in Yingdu City were awakened from their sleep, but no one scolded or abused them. On the contrary, everyone was excited.
When the drums sound,
Everyone knows,
It's about to start!
……
Beat drums to gather generals,
The drummer is Li Fusheng,
The closer he got to the handsome tent, the louder the drums sounded.
Outside the Chinese military commander's tent, rows of white wax and an offering table were lit.
Marquis Jingnan stood with his back to everyone.
Wait until the drums stop beating,
Behind Marquis Jingnan, there were already several rows of generals who had arrived on time.
Everyone held their breath, waiting for Marquis Jingnan's lecture.
Tian Wujing took a step back and knelt down on one knee facing the altar table;
Dozens of generals behind him also knelt down.
"Today, I pay my respects to the tens of thousands of great Yan'erlangs who died in the First Battle of Wangjiang, and let their souls rest in peace."
"The soul rests in peace."
"The soul rests in peace."
Marquis Jingnan stood up first, and all the generals slowly stood up as well.
"Everyone will obey!"
"The end is here!"
"The end is here!"
Everyone, kneel down again.
A chilling air filled the surroundings, and everyone knew that the order to start the war was about to be issued.
"This first military order,
after tonight;
To the east of Wangjiang River,
savage,
Chu people,
Military achievements are all calculated based on the head level.
No prisoners will be taken! "

Today is the preparation, tomorrow we strive to explode.
