Almighty System Great Master Qin

Chapter 259

With Bai Qing's help, Han Xin's next mission went very smoothly. The rest of the mercenary forces had already joined the joint army, so they agreed to join the joint army without hesitation.

For three days, the mercenary group in charge of attacking Baiyue gathered at Ji Bu's camp.

"Everyone, sit down." Ji Bu sat on the main seat and greeted everyone to take their seats.

"This time, the commander called everyone here to discuss the matter of joining forces. As for why we need to join forces, Han Xin must have explained to everyone. Since everyone is here, it means that everyone supports joining forces. The only question now It is to recommend a man who will command the army." Under Ji Bu's hint, a ranger with a command of a thousand soldiers stood up and cupped his hands.

"I suggest that Marshal Ji Buji be the commander of the army. After all, Marshal Ji is the strongest here."

"Not bad, I agree with you"

"That's right, Marshal Ji is bold, loyal, and trustworthy. This Marshal is none other than Marshal Ji." Many people echoed his proposal.

"This commander thinks that Marshal Xie Chaojie is the best candidate to be the commander of the army." A hero with a command of [-] soldiers stood up and said.

"I also support Xie Chao Jie Dashuai"

"That's right, Marshal Xie is very good at fierce battles. I think it's most appropriate for Marshal Xie to lead the army in this battle." Many people also support Marshal Xie as Marshal.

Han Xin, who was standing at the door of the tent, sighed secretly as he watched the crowd arguing over the position of a commander in chief.

Although this group of people are known as heroes and rangers, and everyone is a marshal with thousands of troops.But in Han Xin's eyes, they are actually not much different from a group of mobs. A small Wuyue, this group has been attacking for several months without much progress, and now they are arguing about a false name here.

"Everyone, please listen to the next sentence." Han Xin didn't intend to stay with them for the rest of his life. The reason why he joined the mercenary army was for his resume and to prepare for joining the Qin army in the future.

Everyone looked at Han Xin. Before Han Xin relied on words or facts, this joint army was essentially supported by Han Xin's lobbying. Everyone wanted to see what this young man named Han Xin wanted to express.

Han Xin walked to the middle of the camp and said, "Everyone, I would like to ask you why you organized mercenaries to come to Wuyue?"

Han Xin's question caught everyone's attention. They all looked at each other and no one answered Han Xin's words.

In fact, after the court announced the mercenary system at the beginning, everyone was skeptical. It wasn't until the coalition forces composed of prisoners from all over the country entered the land of Baiyue that they discovered that the court was genuine.

So in order to make money, everyone relied on their own prestige to recruit a group of rangers and ordinary people who could not survive to form mercenaries and march towards Wuyue.

But as time got longer and longer, everyone's offensive momentum was hindered, but whenever there was a major danger, the mercenaries formed by the imperial court would always come to help everyone. It is fighting for something called morality.

But this kind of thing is in the dark. On the bright side, everyone agrees that it is to make money. Otherwise, why would they continue to recruit civilians and rangers who can't survive.

Han Xin looked at the silence of the crowd, and already guessed the reason. This is also the helplessness of the mercenaries. They are not the regular army of the imperial court. Everything needs to be raised by themselves. If there is no money to make, many soldiers will not insist on it. Go on, after all, fighting is going to kill people.

"There are no outsiders here, so I don't say polite words here. We have entered the Baiyue land for several months, but we have only captured a small area, many of which were taken down by the mercenaries of the imperial court. , is it possible that everyone really wants to be a mercenary for the rest of their lives?" Han Xin looked at the crowd and asked.

"Who wants to be a mercenary for the rest of his life? There is no way around it. The imperial edict said that after the Baiyue War, we will all be disbanded," said a young general who commanded [-] troops. .

But Ji Bujiechao and others looked at Han Xin and said nothing, they didn't know what Han Xin's intention was in raising this matter.

"Since none of you want to be mercenaries for the rest of your life, this is the best opportunity right now," Han Xin said, looking at the crowd.

"The mercenary method was thought up by Lord Wu An, and everyone must know about Lord Wu An. If we can capture Wu Yue in the name of mercenaries, then this matter will definitely alarm the court. By then, Lord Wu An You will know that with the character of Lord Wu An, maybe we will break away from the mercenaries and become the real army of Great Qin," Han Xin said excitedly.

But Han Xin made a fatal mistake here. Although Wu Yue didn't look strong, he was not something that tens of thousands of them could conquer.

Thinking back to when Qin Shihuang attacked Baiyue, he mobilized hundreds of thousands of troops to divide into five groups. Even so, it was very difficult to capture the land of Baiyue, and Daqin even killed a general for this.

No matter how strong Han Xin is, without enough strength to support them, they will not be able to attack Wu Yue, and they may even be eaten by Wu Yue.

Xie Chao looked at the excited Han Xin, and said, "Do you think you can take Wu Yue by relying on us alone? You may be a little overwhelmed."

"Han Xin, your idea is good, but it still needs to be based on the facts. Although we did force Wu Yue into the forest, our overall strength is far from Wu Yue's, and everyone's weapons and equipment are also very poor. To win Wu Yue, it's a bit of a dream." Ji Bu was also not optimistic about Han Xin's idea.

These two were not ordinary rangers, they were able to win over a large group of followers not only because of their loyalty.

"However, Han Xin's idea can't be said to be completely wrong. We really can't be mercenaries for a lifetime. Although we may not be able to eat Wu Yue, if we can cause serious damage to Wu Yue, we can still attract the attention of the court." Ji Bu looked at the solution Chao said, "Anyway, it's for everyone's future. It doesn't matter who is the leader of the army, so let Marshal Xie Chaojie be the leader of the army." Ji Bu gave up the fight directly.

"Marshal Ji, you..." Xie Chao didn't expect that Ji Bu would directly give up fighting for the leader of the army for the sake of the overall situation.

"Marshal Xie, don't be suspicious, this commander is none other than you." Ji Bu got up directly and walked in front of Xie Chao, bowing to salute: "Ji Bu sees the commander-in-chief."

Seeing this, everyone else also stood up and bowed to Jie Chao, saying in unison: "See you, Marshal."

"Everyone get up." Xie Chao looked at Ji Bu and bowed to salute, and said, "Since everyone asked me to be the commander-in-chief, no one is allowed to send soldiers to fight without my commander's order from now on."

"Well, we will obey the commander's orders." Everyone bowed and saluted.

After the commander of the army was settled, Xie Chao took Bai Qing to familiarize himself with the soldiers of each army, while Ji Xin followed Ji Bu back to his camp.

"Brother, why did you give up your position as commander of the army?" Ji Xin couldn't understand why Ji Bu gave up his position as commander of the army. Logically, they are the strongest and have the best record. If Jibu is inappropriate, who is qualified?

"Ji Xin, you still don't understand what Han Xin said. We can't be mercenaries for a lifetime. The imperial court will send a large army to attack Baiyue at the earliest next year and the next year at the latest. At that time, there will be no business for us, so the only way to let us Only when the imperial court realizes our strength will we have a place in the future, as for the person who commands the army, it doesn’t matter to anyone.”

Ji Bu's psychological change is also due to Han Xin's words, rather than spending time here fighting for the false name of a leader of the army, it is better to be more pragmatic.
