Become Stronger and Immortal By Picking Up Attributes From the Battlefield

Chapter 89: Accumulate strength! Mother's birthday!

Zhao Feng naturally understood that the strategy of the Prisoner Army in the later period would inevitably become the trend of the Qin Dynasty, and he proposed it first. If the Prisoner Army makes meritorious deeds in the future, he would be the first! !

Looking at Zhao Feng looking so serious.

Meng Yi and Li Teng were both very surprised.

The other generals in the hall were also the same, and they were very surprised and surprised by Zhao Feng's statement.

It has been said that reducing soldiers and reorganizing them is extremely difficult, and it can even be said that it is impossible to form combat power.

"General Zhao, are you serious?" Meng Yi asked in surprise.

"Go back to the county guard, I will take it seriously."

"If it is possible to reduce the soldiers and reorganize them, our Great Qin will be able to obtain a steady stream of fresh troops to serve our Great Qin in the future."

"This matter is worth exploring." Zhao Feng replied with a serious face.

"Do you know how serious this matter is?"

"If there really is a mutiny by surrendering soldiers or a rebellion by the military, this would be a serious crime." Li Teng said seriously.

"The last general is willing to issue a military order and give the last general 20,000 soldiers as pioneers."

"If there is a mutiny or a rebellion in the military, I will be willing to bear the responsibility." Zhao Feng bowed and clasped his fists and said very firmly.

Others see the surrender of the soldiers as a hot potato, but for Zhao Feng, who knows the history, as long as the surrender of the soldiers is well trained, reorganized and given hope, they can still fight for Qin. More importantly, Zhao Feng also You can secretly recruit your own dead soldiers while surrendering soldiers.

Looking at Zhao Feng who was still determined.

Li Teng couldn't help but look at Meng Yi with a helpless expression.

"General Lee."

"I think General Zhao may really have a way to change the reduction of soldiers and reorganize their combat power."

"Why not, give him a chance?" Meng Yi smiled and said to Li Teng.

"But does this matter need to be reported to the king?" Li Teng looked hesitant.

In the past, the soldiers who were demoted were directly demoted to slaves, and in case of war, they were directly forced to the battlefield to be used as cannon fodder. However, there had never been any reorganization.

"After I came to Yingchuan, the king already gave me an explanation."

"The soldiers who have been surrendered can be assigned to me for use."

"Since General Zhao is determined, let him give it a try. If it doesn't work, we can suppress it with the army."

"This matter."

"I will make the decision for General Li." Meng Yi smiled slightly.

Then he looked at Zhao Feng: "I will surrender 30,000 soldiers to General Zhao. No matter how you train or reorganize, General Li will not interfere, but General Zhao must remember the battle of Changping."

Under words.

The meaning is very clear.

In the battle of Changping, more than 400,000 Zhao soldiers were captured.

Why not reorganize?

Why slaughter them all?

After all, the reduced soldiers cannot be reorganized, let alone used for one's own purposes.

Keeping them as slaves is too much and consumes the treasury.

Letting them go would not harm the State of Zhao.

If there had been other choices, Zhao's 400,000 surrendered soldiers would not have died.

"Please rest assured, Sheriff Meng."

"The general will understand." Zhao Feng replied immediately.

"General Lee."

"The war has been decided, and the imperial court's rewards have also come down."

"You'd better go ahead and reintegrate the army." Meng Yi smiled and said to Li Teng again.

"good."

Li Teng nodded.

The battle to destroy Korea.

It seemed like a good victory, but many warriors were killed in the battle, and many warriors had to retire and return home because of their disabilities.

And these elite soldiers are not just ordinary soldiers, but also officers, and even military princes, captains, and generals.

The gap caused by the officers killed in battle must be filled from the elite soldiers who have made meritorious service, and then the battalions can be reorganized to form combat strength.

After the new soldiers arrive, the soldiers will be replenished.

Time passed gradually.

The day passed like this.

Inside the military camp in the city.

The meeting hall.

Zhao Feng was sitting in the main seat, and there were five generals and ten captains standing in the hall.

Among the five thousand generals.

The person Zhao Feng is most familiar with is naturally Zhang Han, and the other person is Chen Tao.

Before, Chen Tao was Zhao Feng's superior, but now he has become Zhao Feng's subordinate.

perhaps.

This feeling was extremely unpleasant for Chen Tao, but there was nothing he could do about it.

original.

Before Zhao Feng accomplished the feat of capturing the king, perhaps Zhao Feng's biggest promotion title would have been Ten Thousand Generals, which was promoted to the second level. After all, this was how he was rewarded for his ability to break the city.

As a general, Chen Tao also enjoys this merit.

But after he succeeded in capturing the king, Chen Tao's position as deputy general was no longer available. It was equivalent to Zhao Feng squeezing Chen Tao's position as deputy general based on his military exploits.

In the Great Qin Army, everything is based on strength.

As for the ten captains, Zhao Feng was familiar with four of them, and he also knew Liu Wu, who was also a captain before.

Perhaps in the hearts of Chen Tao and Liu Wu, now that Zhao Feng has become their immediate superior, they are also very uneasy.

"See General Zhao."

The generals bowed and bowed to Zhao Feng.

"Generals, please take your seats."

Zhao Feng smiled slightly and waved his hand.

"Thank you, General Zhao."

The generals bowed and sat on both sides in rows according to their official ranks.

"In one day of reorganization, the five generals' battalions under my command were also reorganized into an army. Each of the ten thousand generals' battalions now has about 7,400 troops. The troops are temporarily lacking and the military system is incomplete. However, after the new year, new soldiers will join the army. The camp can solve this problem," Zhao Feng said slowly.

"General."

"Now that the war has been decided, the lack of troops is no problem. I wonder when we will leave for Weicheng?" Zhang Han asked with a smile.

"When do you generals think it is best to leave?" Zhao Feng did not make a direct conclusion, but looked at the several thousand generals.

"Everything should be based on the general's orders." The other four generals replied in unison.

"When the army sets out, it needs food and fodder and needs to be dispatched. Weicheng is five days away from Xinzheng Cavalry, and it will take half a month for our army to break out of camp."

"And there are 30,000 surrendered soldiers accompanying us, so the time will be longer."

"In that case, let's set off tomorrow." Zhao Feng thought for a while and said.

"General Zhao."

"The general will think so."

"The matter of demotion and reorganization can be discussed further."

"Our army has less than 50,000 troops. If these 30,000 people rebel, the consequences will be disastrous."

"Even if they are taken into custody in Weicheng, there will definitely be big disturbances in the subsequent reorganization." A ten thousand general stood up and said very seriously.

"The general seconded the proposal."

"The danger of surrendering soldiers is not known to our Qin army, but to everyone in the world." Another deputy general stood up.

"The general also seconded the proposal."

Except for Zhang Han, all four lieutenants under Zhao Feng stood up to persuade him.

In their view.

No.

Or in the eyes of the generals of the army, Zhao Feng's plan to reorganize and demote his soldiers was a foolish move, and he was just looking for trouble.

Look at the four people in front of you.

Zhao Feng smiled slightly: "General Chen, why don't you introduce these three generals to me?"

"The last general Zhao Tuo."

"The last general is Wu Yue."

"At the end of the day, all generals rise together."

Before Chen Tao could speak, the three generals introduced themselves.

"Zhao Tuo?"

Upon hearing this name.

Zhao Feng instantly fell on the general who called himself Zhao Tuo, and felt a little weird in his heart.

"King Wu of South Vietnam, Zhao Tuo."

"The Zhao Tuo who occupied the Qin Dynasty's 500,000-strong army to stand alone was the Zhao Tuo who experienced the Qin and Han Dynasties."

"This guy is actually under my command now."

Looking at Zhao Tuo in front of him, Zhao Feng had an indescribable feeling.

This guy.

I have to say that he is a clever person and a smart person.

The late Qin period.

Qin had reached the point of subjugation, and Zhao Tuo had been watching. After Qin's death, he was even more happy to see it become completely self-reliant.

"King Wu of South Vietnam, guarding Baiyue, and finally establishing his own country, this is a good job."

"When Qin destroys the six kingdoms in the future, I will ask for orders to guard Baiyue."

"Then he waited for the changes in China until the end of Qin, and then led the garrison to rise north and capture China."

The moment I heard Zhao Tuo's name.

Zhao Feng made a plan for his future in an instant.

Because it is really a good job to guard Baiyue, and it is very suitable for sitting on the mountain and watching tigers fight in the future.

As for whether there will be a chance to get this job of guarding Baiyue in the future.

Zhao Tuo is already under his command, how can he still defeat him?

Be funny!

"The generals' opinions are indeed reasonable." Zhao Feng said slowly.

Hear this.

All the generals looked at Zhao Feng expectantly.

But Zhao Feng's words changed: "Everyone thinks that the Jiang soldiers cannot be reorganized and will become a burden and even harm the whole army. But I don't believe it, because the Han Jiang soldiers we have captured now are different from any other soldiers in the past." The soldiers of each country are different."

"In the past, all the soldiers who were surrendered had their mother country. They all had their support in the mother country. Naturally, they could not serve our Great Qin wholeheartedly."

"But it's different now."

"Han is dead, the land of Han has become Yingchuan County of our Great Qin, and millions of Koreans have become the subjects of our Great Qin."

"The children of these descendants are already Qin citizens."

"If they dare to defect in front of the battle! If they dare to cause chaos! Aren't they afraid that my Da Qin Law will implicate their family?"

"Generals."

"This reorganization is related to the future military strength of our Great Qin. Great Qin aspires to unify the world."

"Although our country, Great Qin, is strong, we still need to use the power of other countries for our own use, so that we can become stronger as we fight."

"Reorganizing and reducing soldiers to the army is an innovative move. I would like to guarantee that if an uncontrollable situation does arise, I, Zhao Feng, will take full responsibility and will not implicate you in any way."

"But if the soldiers are reduced and reorganized into an army with combat strength, all the generals will cooperate fully. This is the credit of all the generals."

Zhao Feng said loudly to everyone in the hall.

Hearing Zhao Feng's words.

The generals in the palace couldn't help but start thinking.

"The people of Han have become people of Qin, and the children of Han Jiangzu are also people of Qin."

"They have lost their mother country."

"That seems to be the case."

Many generals couldn't help but think.

"The general has a point."

"The final general is willing to follow with all his strength."

Zhang Han immediately bowed and bowed.

"I will follow you with all my strength."

Several of Zhao Feng's men immediately agreed.

See this.

And Zhao Feng's words have reached such an extent that naturally any persuasion is useless, and Zhao Feng's words have indeed impressed many generals.

"The last general is willing to follow the general."

All the generals in the palace expressed their opinions one after another.

"We will leave for Weicheng tomorrow. The generals can go back and make arrangements for the time being."

"As for the matter of food and grass, I have already reported to the Central Military Department immediately, and there will be food and grass with the army." Zhao Feng said to the generals.

"I will retire at the end."

Hear this.

All the generals retreated.

in a blink.

More than a dozen generals retreated.

But Zhao Feng did not leave immediately, but sat in his original position.

It didn't take long.

A man wearing the uniform of the Qin Bing Huotou Army came to Zhao Feng.

"Slave Han Xi wishes to see your Lord."

The visitor knelt in front of Zhao Biao, very respectfully.

This person.

It was Han Xi, the chief **** who Zhao Feng rescued in the Han palace that day.

"Get up."

Zhao Feng smiled slightly.

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Han Xi replied respectfully.

Then he bowed and stood aside, not daring to cross at all.

For Han Xi.

Zhao Feng was kind to him.

Just the thousands of people in the palace.

No matter they were eunuchs, maids, or even concubines, they were all destined to be demoted to slavery.

Entered into slavery.

It is given to those who have meritorious service, even if they kill slaves, they will not be punished by the law.

Han Xi, a **** in his forties, was not as strong as others. If he was really taken away as a slave, the consequences would be death.

"My lord."

"This period of time, the slaves have been searching in Xinzheng according to your instructions, and have already recruited many people."

"My servant will give you a detailed report." Han Xi said respectfully.

"You can wait until they all arrive." Zhao Feng said slowly, very calmly.

"No." Han Xi nodded respectfully and then fell silent.

After a while.

Zhang Han and Wei Quan, who had just left, returned again.

After arriving.

They immediately closed the door of the palace and left their confidants to guard it so that outsiders could not get close.

"See your Lord."

As soon as the five people arrived, they immediately bowed excitedly to Zhao Feng.

"Everyone, take a seat."

Zhao Feng smiled slightly. "Thank you, Lord."

The five people stood up immediately and stood in front of Zhao Feng without sitting down.

"Say it."

"How is the recruitment going?" Zhao Feng looked at Han Xi and said.

"promise."

Han Xi responded respectfully.

Then he said: "This time, the slaves recruited secretly and found old hands in the folk. They secretly collected 300 boys and girls aged about ten years old, as well as the elite guards who had retired from the original Han Palace. There were fifty-eight people in total. , we also collected 26 blacksmith slaves, 18 winemakers, and 13 carpenters.”

Hear this number.

Zhao Feng nodded with satisfaction: "Han Xi, you did a good job. Originally, I only wanted you to collect about two hundred boys and girls, but I didn't expect you to collect three hundred people."

"My lord."

"The war in Korea has just ended. Due to the war, there are displaced people everywhere. Let alone looking for three hundred, if the Lord needs more slaves, he can also find them."

"It seems like we are taking these children away, but in fact we are saving their lives." Han Xi sighed.

"Why so pessimistic?"

"Now Han has become Yingchuan County, and Da Qin has also sent capable ministers to serve as county guards. Yingchuan will soon be settled." Zhao Feng asked in surprise.

"My lord."

"This slave has been serving King Han, so she naturally knows something about the situation."

"Over the years, the King of Han has spent countless gold and silver in order to protect the country from Qin in the past and Zhao in the future, and these were all looted from the people."

"The taxes of the people of Yingchuan have been collected for several years. Winter is about to come here. I don't know how many people are going to starve to death, and I don't know how many people are going to freeze to death."

"Before the war, countless people died of starvation and freezing, let alone now." Han Xi sighed, his face filled with sadness.

Although he is an eunuch, he is also a man who has subjugated his country.

But maybe there is kindness in my heart, and I can’t help but feel sad when I think of the future scene.

Through the words of Han Xi.

Zhao Feng also thought of this scene.

In the ice and snow.

Deaths from starvation were everywhere, countless bones were frozen to death, and the world was in a miserable state.

Their deaths were more painful than the war.

"well."

Zhao Feng sighed: "My ability is limited now. It is impossible to save so many people. Moreover, there are hundreds of people now. The target is already huge. I can't recruit anymore for the time being, otherwise it will definitely cause disaster."

"but."

"After arriving in Weicheng, we can recruit again. I can only do my best to recruit people."

"Others can only depend on the court's actions. I believe King Qin will not sit idly by."

Hear the words.

Han Xi knelt on the ground and bowed his head: "The Lord is kind and virtuous, and I swear to the death to do so."

"I am not benevolent, I just do what everyone needs."

Zhao Feng waved his hand and rejected this so-called title of benevolence.

The reason for recruitment is all for future planning, and he may not be able to live up to this reputation of benevolence.

He knows exactly where and what responsibility lies.

Now he is just a mere deputy general of the Qin Army. What does it mean to look at the state of eyes and the world?

If he were the king of a country, he would seek a way out for his people, but he is not.

"You all heard what Han Xi said."

"Zhang Han."

Zhao Feng spoke again.

"Please give me your orders, my lord." Zhang Han said immediately.

"Secretly arrange these recruited people to join the army and take them to Weicheng together." Zhao Feng said in a deep voice.

"There are only a few hundred people, it's very simple."

"My subordinates arranged them into the team escorting the baggage, and all of them were arranged as close associates of our former captain camp." Zhang Han said.

"Just look at the arrangements." Zhao Feng nodded.

Just a few hundred people.

Even if he is discovered, it won't be a big deal, he is equivalent to being a slave.

"Brother Wei."

Zhao Feng looked at Wei Quan again.

"My lord."

"Now that my subordinates have pledged their allegiance, I will no longer be called eldest brother." Wei Quan's expression changed and he immediately said in fear.

See this scene.

Zhao Feng also felt a strange feeling that he had never felt before, but when the words came to his lips, Zhao Feng said nothing more.

"Now that I have been promoted to deputy general, I can have a hundred personal guards."

"You will help me select a hundred loyal and reliable warriors among the old brothers in the Duwei Camp to be my personal guards." Zhao Feng said.

Under military regulations.

Only the chief general can have personal guards, and he can have five small camps of one hundred generals, with a total of five hundred people.

Lieutenant generals do not have such qualifications.

But Zhao Feng, the deputy general, is not an ordinary deputy general, but a deputy general with a tenth-level title.

Title regulations.

The chief of Zuo Shu can have one hundred private soldiers.

In the military, they can be called personal guards.

This was what Li Teng told him. Although it was not in line with military regulations, it was also a favor from the royal power to the meritorious nobles.

"I accept the order." Wei Quan respectfully accepted the order.

"Tell me about the promotions of brothers in the army below the rank of captain." Zhao Feng looked at Luo Hua again.

Anyone above the rank of captain, Zhao Feng, knows this.

Those from the captain level and below reported directly to the Sima of the Central Army, and then were awarded the Jin Dynasty title. Naturally, Zhao Feng was not very clear about it.

"My lord."

"In this battle to conquer the capital of Han, it was our Lord and his brothers who took the lead in breaking through the city gates. We were the first to do it. After that, it was our captain camp that captured the King of Han. It was another great achievement."

"Our original captain's battalion was also the largest captain's battalion in the army to receive the title of Jin."

"Nine people have been awarded the title of Military Marquis, fifteen people have been awarded the title of Five Hundred Lords, and a total of eighty-nine people have been awarded the title of Hundred Generals."

"Of course, many people with military merit who have never been promoted to official positions have successfully been promoted to the first level of nobility." Luo Hua said excitedly, while looking at Zhao Feng feverishly.

Of course he understands.

The reason why their Duweiying obtained so many people's Jin title lies in Zhao Feng's powerful and brave strength.

"We are all brothers who came out of the same captain's camp. Don't lose contact in the future." Zhao Feng said to everyone with deep meaning.

"Please rest assured, Lord."

Everyone replied immediately.

"Han Xi."

Zhao Feng looked at Han Xi again.

"My servant is here." Han Xi immediately bowed and replied.

"Do you know anything about Weicheng?" Zhao Feng asked.

"I once went to Weicheng with King Han." Han Xi replied.

"Then do you know of any hiding places in Weicheng? It's best to stay away from people." Zhao Fengdao.

"My lord."

"This kind of place is easy to find." Han Xi replied immediately.

"very good."

Zhao Feng nodded with satisfaction: "Look for some hiding places for me, which will be used as a place for me to train those dead soldiers in the future."

"My slave, take your orders." Han Xi nodded immediately.

"My lord."

"My subordinate has a problem. He may be a little disobedient." Zhang Han said hesitantly at this time.

"explain."

Zhao Feng looked at Zhang Han.

"Now my Lord has been promoted to deputy general. Although he is not a very popular minister, he still holds a high position in the army. I wonder why he cultivates dead soldiers?"

"These are taboos. If someone discovers them and reports them to the court, your Majesty will be in great trouble." Zhang Han said with a worried look on his face.

Hear this!

Others couldn't help but look tense.

It is indeed taboo for ministers to keep dead soldiers in captivity.

Although there is no law to restrict it, once it is discovered, it will be suspected of being disloyal.

Although Zhao Feng is not the only one who keeps dead soldiers in captivity, looking at the world, there are definitely many people with power who keep dead soldiers in captivity.

In the Qin State, dead soldiers also had a unique name, called retainers.

In the past, when the number of retainers in the Qin Kingdom was at its peak, it was Lu Buwei who had three thousand retainers in his mansion.

after.

It’s Lao Ai.

Taking advantage of the favor of Empress Dowager Zhao Ji of Qin, he was granted the title of Marquis Changxin. After establishing the government, he raised thousands of followers. In the end, these followers became the capital for his rebellion.

It was from then on.

The King of Qin was crowned and pro-government, and issued edicts and laws. No official in the Qin Dynasty was allowed to keep any retainers in captivity. Once discovered, they would be severely punished without mercy.

Since then, the trend of keeping hangers-on in captivity has become less common.

But those powerful people are more or less keeping them in captivity secretly, but not many, and not so blatantly.

"I keep dead soldiers in captivity just for the future."

"And after the captivity really starts, I can see clearly whether the dead soldiers are loyal or not."

"You don't need to worry about leaks."

"I can see through even you."

Zhao Feng spoke slowly.

What the future holds.

No one in the world knows this, but Zhao Feng is familiar with history and he knows it clearly.

In the future, at the end of Qin, Qin will die.

If you say it now, no one would believe it.

Furthermore, there was no need for Zhao Feng to say anything.

"See loyalty?"

Everyone immediately heard the deep meaning in Zhao Feng's words.

See loyalty clearly.

What kind of power is this?

However, when they thought of the skills that Zhao Feng had given them and the summoning of objects out of thin air, their hearts were filled with awe.

"My subordinate understands."

Zhang Han immediately bowed.

"alright."

"These things have been settled for now. You all go down and prepare." Zhao Feng said to everyone.

"promise."

Everyone respectfully accepted the order, and then slowly retreated.

After everyone left.

Zhao Feng walked slowly towards the outside of the palace.

It's night now.

There were hundreds of warriors on duty outside the temple.

The bright moon hung high, casting a faint moonlight.

"Today is my mother's birthday. I wonder how my mother and sister are doing."

"I've been away from home for almost eleven months."

"When I was in the Logistics Army, I thought about being discharged and returning home after two years. I never thought about transferring to the main battle camp, let alone reaching the current official position of Vice General Qin."

"Perhaps even my mother and the others won't believe it when they hear it."

"I don't know when I can go home and take a look."

"Since I was born, this is the first time that I haven't celebrated my mother's birthday with my sister."

Zhao Feng looked up at the bright moon in the sky, with a look of longing on his face.

Unknowingly.

He had been away from home for almost a year. Before he knew it, he had arrived at the main battle camp. Before he knew it, he had become the deputy general of Great Qin due to his military exploits.

If this news were spread back to the village, I'm afraid it would arouse the surprise of the entire village.

Look at the bright moon.

Zhao Feng could feel that maybe his mother and sister were watching at this moment.

Turning his eyes, Shacun!

Under the moonlight.

Mother Zhao and her daughter were sitting in the yard, Zhao was mending clothes, and Zhao Ying was grinding herbs.

"mother."

"I told you I'd wait and sew. You should go in and rest quickly."

"Today is your birthday, and my daughter showed off her skills for you during dinner. Although it is not as delicious as my brother's, it is not bad. Now you have a good sleep and a good rest."

Looking at her mother who was constantly sewing, Zhao Ying said softly.

"Okay, okay."

"Mom knows Yinger is filial."

"But Mom really can't sleep."

Mrs. Zhao put down her clothes and smiled kindly at Zhao Ying.

"mother."

"You are already weak. If you don't get some rest at this late hour, your body will not be able to bear it." Zhao Ying said with concern.

"Mom is not that weak."

"I'm just thinking about your brother."

Zhao smiled slightly and looked up at the bright moon in the sky.

"You just turned sixteen not long ago. Mom celebrates your birthdays every time, and your brother always changes his ways to make mom happy every time."

"It's my mother's birthday this time, but your brother is no longer by my mother's side." Mrs. Zhao said with a look of longing and concern.

"mother."

"In just one more year, I will be back."

"Our family will still be able to live together by then." Zhao Ying said with a smile.

"kindness."

Mrs. Zhao nodded, her eyes full of concern: "When your brother comes back, our family will live together forever."

While mother and daughter were talking.

Outside the yard.

But a figure slowly walked over.

Zhao Ying heard the noise, looked over, and immediately stood up and shouted: "Grandpa Wu, why are you here so late?"
