Because of its special geographical location and environment, Narcissus Town makes the people here very poor.Under the circumstances that even meals are sometimes unsolvable, not to mention that there will be any savings at home.Now that so much silver is suddenly placed in front of everyone, it is impossible to say that no one is tempted.Especially when everyone knows that the money will be compensated to the victims immediately, some people's eyes are brighter.

No matter how beautiful the words are, no matter how good the guarantee is, it is far less convincing than a pile of silver.All of a sudden, there was a restless mood in the whole square. If there was not a company of Leng Feng soldiers in full armor guarding beside the silver mountain, I am afraid that an unknown number of people would rush up to take the silver It's gone.

The appearance of Yinshan also mobilized the emotions of everyone present.At this time, the public trial conference is going on normally, and the third item is to lead someone to commit a crime.

Bet and Hulu of the Jurchen tribe, Bagen and Wumur of the Mongolian cavalry were escorted to the square respectively.There had long been a wooden frame with names written on it. After these people appeared, they were tied to the wooden frame according to their names.

His hands were tied, his head was drooping, and his whole body became uncomfortable at this moment. How could he still look like a general in the past?Among them, General Bagen had his left arm cut off because of resistance, but the blood had been stopped, but due to excessive blood loss, his face was already as pale as snow, and now he saw the formation of this public trial , people have long been trembling, trembling, trembling endlessly.

Not only him, but other generals are not much better.Perhaps it was because they knew that they had done too many bullying and good things, and now they were about to suffer retribution, so their faces were not very good-looking, and none of them dared to raise their heads, as if they were afraid of being targeted by others.

Only the Jurchen General Hulu and the Mongolian General Temur raised their chests high at this moment, and looked blankly at the more than 3 people in Narcissus Town outside the venue.

They are all straightforward and brave in battle, and they all belong to the kind that doesn't have much scheming.Being able to become a general did not depend on being eloquent and eloquent, it was all because of his own strength that he was truly appreciated by Bert and Bagen, and he was in a high position.

Their character will not allow them to do anything that endangers and oppresses the people, so at this moment they are the most calm in their hearts.But no matter what you say, they are also the generals of the two armies. Even if they are in high positions, they will naturally be unable to escape some responsibilities, so although their faces are calm, their hearts are indeed sad and dead.After all, according to what they have learned, how many of the defeated generals will end well?

In fact, regarding the so-called public trial meeting, not only the generals did not understand what was going on, but the more than 3 people who came here also did not know what was going on.I just thought it was like execution at Caishikou, since he was a defeated general, there must be a dead end.

It wasn't until Commissar Chen Bo stood up and began to read the procedure of the public trial meeting that everyone knew about it.The so-called public trial refers to the people coming together to judge the wicked.As for whether these kidnapped people are guilty or not, it is up to the people to decide together.

When Chen Bo announced the meaning of the public trial conference through the vernacular through the loudspeaker, the square became even more lively.

The common people have always been made up of the lowest ranks.Often they are synonymous with the exploited, the exploited and the suffering.Having good things rarely has anything to do with them. On the contrary, if you need to work hard or work hard, it will naturally be their turn.

This may seem very unfair, but this is a normal state in a feudal society. For thousands of years, the common people have become accustomed to it.On the contrary, occasionally there will be one or two officials who plead for the people, and they will be regarded as upright officials, such as giving some umbrellas for the people, etc., will happen frequently.

It's sad to think about it. Officials just did what they should do, and they will be so grateful to the people. I have to say that this is the biggest joke in the world.

The common people are used to obeying orders and being oppressed by others.Suddenly they could make the decisions, which actually made them uncomfortable. A group of people huddled together and chirped, with a look of disbelief and disbelief.

Chen Bo had expected such a scene long ago, seeing this place, he couldn't help but envy the people of Chixian City.In comparison, the compatriots there not only have a higher quality of life, but also have more human rights. Once they encounter injustice, they can react step by step and be properly dealt with in the end.Although there are no absolutes in the world, and not everyone can get ideal results when they encounter injustice, but as for most people, they still get respect for human rights.

At least, if it is said that when a public trial meeting is held in Chixian City, the people there will not be so excited, and even take it for granted. This is the gap.

And this seems to be a small gap. I am afraid that it will take others to catch up for many years before it can be accepted and it is really possible to change that thinking.

After a moment of distraction, Chen Bo turned his attention back to the eyes of the more than 3 people in front of him, and shouted through the loudspeaker, "Has anyone among you been oppressed or bullied? As long as there are , you can also produce corresponding evidence or find witnesses, then we will make decisions for you. See if there is a pile of silver, as long as what you say is true, the silver there will become compensation and fall into your own hands Now, please those who have been wronged to step forward and tell our staff about the injustice that happened to you, believe in us, and believe in yourself, justice is at your fingertips!"

At any rate, he has the identity of the political commissar of the third regiment. During this period, Chen Bo also read a lot of books and learned a lot.Now it's finally time to come in handy, and he has exhausted his three-inch tongue, trying his best to confuse the people with words. He firmly believes that as long as one person is persuaded and dares to come out, then There will be tens of thousands of people standing up.

In fact, without Chen Bo saying too much, Wu Huo and the others had already walked out.They knew what the public trial was going on before others, and after communicating in advance, they walked out of the crowd and walked towards the row of mercenary staff who had set up tables on the side of the square.

"I want to report. I'm talking about Jurchen Bet. There is an ancestral jade pendant in my family. He accidentally saw it and forcibly took it away. It should still be on his waist now."

"I want to report that Bagen of Mongolia once took a fancy to my horse and only paid five taels of silver. I refused and was beaten up by him. Now the horse is still staying in the stables of the Mongolian army camp. "

"I want to report that Bert has an unruly heart towards my wife. Once while I was out hunting, he did something inhumane. As a result, my wife bit her tongue and died on the spot in order to preserve her chastity. I have been afraid to say anything about my return. , but this matter has been on my mind for many years. If I don’t avenge this, I really have no face to go to my wife in the underground. Now I ask the adults of the Five Star Army to make decisions for the little one. The neighbors near my house know this matter, please adults for us Make the decision."

"I want to report"

With the first person to stand up as an example, more and more people will take the initiative to step out.They respectively spoke out about the various grievances they had suffered, and each cited evidence or witnesses.Every time someone stepped forward to report, the staff of the mercenary kept recording it on paper, and the auxiliary soldiers who followed him would investigate immediately after the incident to clarify the matter as much as possible.

For example, if the jade pendant was indeed found on Bert, it must be returned to the original owner; the horse also found the same characteristics in the stables, and returned it to the original owner; the one whose wife has died cannot be found. So he took out 20 taels of silver from the silver mountain. Although the amount was not much, it was enough to erect a new grave or even hang a chastity archway.

As people continued to come forward to tell the story, the crimes of Bert, Bagen and others were also told one by one, and the order was announced to the world, and the accumulation was more and more.But Hulu and Temur were rarely sued by anyone.Although some people came forward to talk about the illegal affairs of the two, but after investigation, there was insufficient evidence, and there was even an obvious false accusation, and they wanted to take the opportunity to seek benefits.After being investigated, the people were also given a serious warning by the mercenaries.

The forest is big, and there are all kinds of birds. Even though it is only the lowest level of the people, there are also some strange people who want to take advantage of this opportunity to make a fortune.Yang Chendong had thought of this a long time ago, once he found such a person, it would be a warning.If these people were not the people under their rule, they would be punished for their performance.

The public trial meeting went very smoothly.Most of the people who came to sue had reason and evidence, and the place where it happened was in Narcissus Town, so the investigation was not that complicated.But even so, it took a full three days to listen to all the people's complaints one by one.This is because there are hundreds of staff responsible for the reception, and the auxiliary soldiers of the four battalions are busy with this matter, otherwise, it will only take longer.

Chapter 655 I'm Accepting Two Generals

Three days later, the money had disappeared, and all of it was handed out as compensation. The Five-Star Army has truly become a guardian god of the people who cares about them among the people in Shuixian Town.Also on this morning, the last item of the Trial Conference, the verdict!Officially begin.

Chen Bo was still presiding over the conference. He held a statistical report of the three days since the public trial in his hand. He read out loud through the loudspeaker, "Bote was prosecuted for 830 crimes. After verification, A total of 720 crimes, 340 crimes, extremely heinous, heinous punishment, immediate execution; Bagen was prosecuted for 620 crimes, after verification, a total of [-] eight crimes, heinous crimes, lingering sentence The punishment will be executed immediately; the centurion Zhang Maoxu will be prosecuted for the crime”

Loud and clear voices continued to resound over the square, and the faces of those whose names were being read showed a look of unlovedness. For them at this moment, death has become a kind of happiness, because they still have to go through ten thousand things. Only with a knife in his body can he close his eyes and die.

As the crimes continued to be read, the first cries began to appear in the square, and then more and more.These are the spontaneous cries of the people who have suffered, suffered, and suffered injustice.Originally thought that the injustice that happened to them would never be able to seek justice, but the Five-Star Army came, and they helped them solve all this. At this moment, in their hearts, the Five-Star Army is like the parents who recreated their lives. I'm afraid for a while that they will be willing to do anything if they are asked.

Of course, not all generals were sentenced to death. For example, Hulu and Temu said that they were special cases. What happened to them was sentenced to death only because he beat and scolded his soldiers. It was also caused by their hatred of iron but not steel, which is not a crime at all.Even such things often happen among mercenaries. Although Yang Chendong does not advocate corporal punishment, some recruits just like this. It is useless for you to reason with such a person. The effect of feet is better than a thousand words of warning and education.

Therefore, even in the Yang family's army, as long as it is not targeted, and the veterans do not embarrass the recruits because of their advocacy, appropriate corporal punishment has become something that the upper-level officers tacitly approve of.Naturally, the premise is that people can't be disabled by training. If that's the case, all relevant military officers at all levels will follow suit.

It is precisely because Hulu and Youtemuer did not make any serious mistakes, as the defeated generals, they only received three leather whips, which is tantamount to exposing the fact that they beat the soldiers. past.Of course, these three whips also represent a clean break with the past, and represent that from today onwards they are no longer members of the Jurchen and Mongolian cavalry, but have become members of the mercenary army.At this moment, Yang Chendong saw the two of them in a hall, and what he was talking about was this matter.

In the past three or four days, what is the military discipline and military style of the mercenaries? Although the two generals will be tied up and sent to the square early in the morning, they still have to see it clearly. This is also a must for a general. Some qualities, that is good at observation.

It is precisely because of seeing and observing these that they admire the mercenaries from the bottom of their hearts. As far as they think, if their side has achieved such a big victory, it is absolutely impossible to enter Narcissus Town without disturbing the people. Those who bully the people.Not to mention, in the past three or four days, not only did the mercenaries not persecute a single commoner, on the contrary, when the training was over, they would go deep into the homes of the common people, chop firewood and fetch water for them, and do what they could. The army has never appeared since ancient times.

It was this kind of behavior that quickly won them the hearts of the people in Narcissus Town.As a result, many people are thinking in their hearts that it is best for the Five-Star Army to stay here forever and not leave.

Received personally by Yang Chendong, which has proved the value of the two generals.Originally, the two were not used to some of the practices of Bert and Bagen, and now the two are still being tortured in the square. Death is inevitable, and there will be a painful process. Where do we go from here?

The appearance of Yang Chendong is to express a kind of solicitation. With sincerity, the two generals who were already active in their hearts just hesitated for a while and then knelt down and called the sixth young master, which means that from this moment on, they are completely Joined the camp of mercenaries.

Whether it's Hulu or Temur, their own strengths are pretty good.But it's just good. If you really say it's a military genius, it's bullshit.Yang Chendong was still willing to condescend to come here. To put it bluntly, he was interested in their understanding of the local situation and their exemplary role in the Jurchen and Mongolian cavalry.

This time, 7000 people were captured as prisoners alone.Among them, there were 500 Jurchen cavalry and 500 Mongolian cavalry.These are people who have dealt with war horses all year round. Such soldiers only need a little training to go to the battlefield to kill the enemy. Naturally, the more such soldiers, the better.

Not only the [-] captive soldiers, but also the [-] strong men in Narcissus Town, Yang Chendong didn't intend to let them go, if possible, of course he wanted to recruit his subordinates, the more people the better.But before doing this, he was still going to ask Hulu and Temuer what they meant. After all, they are local snakes. They should understand and understand this situation better than himself. This is why Yang Chendong wants to see the two of them. Another main reason.

As soon as he surrendered, he was questioned. Of course, both Hulu and Temur wanted to perform well and leave a good impression on the coach. At the moment, the two of them are talking to each other.

From the mouths of the two, Yang Chendong learned something about the Jurchen and the Mongolian army.For example, Jurchens are divided into raw Jurchens and mature Jurchens. Under normal circumstances, mature Jurchens have lived next to the Han people for many years, and their habits tend to be more sinicized. On the contrary, raw Jurchens prefer wars and conquests, which also makes the Jurchens In general, those who are in the dominant position are the Jurchens.It's like Bert is one of the representatives of the Jurchens.

In Narcissus Town, it’s just the opposite. Mature women really have a larger population. If life is not forced by the living environment and life is too hard, most of them will not join the army, but live their lives like the Han people. It's been a while.

The above is the analysis of Hulu, who is a member of the Jurchen, and then the Mongolian general Temur talked about Mongolia.

Mongolia is just a collective name. After the fall of the Northern Yuan Dynasty in 1402, Mongolia was divided into many parts. Later, it gradually formed into three major parts according to the area where they lived. That is, the Mongolians distributed in the Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region and the three northeastern provinces are called Monan Mongolia. , that is, the Horqin tribe; Mongolia distributed in the territory of present-day Mongolia is called Mobei Mongolia, that is, Khalkha tribe, and Mongolia distributed in Xinjiang, Qinghai and Gansu is called Moxi Mongolia, that is, Oirat tribe, also known as For Erut Mongolia.

And there are many small tribes among the three major tribes. They often have disputes over territory and interests, which lead to various wars. In short, there is one word-chaos.Often, two small tribes that had a good relationship yesterday just reached an alliance relationship, and today they may suddenly fight together.For example, Bagen used to be the son of a small tribal chief. Because the tribe was embezzled, he brought some remnants of soldiers to Narcissus Town and developed here.

So Bet had been worried that moving Bagen would attract the counterattack of the Mongolian cavalry.

Whether it is Hu Lu's statement or Temur's statement, it is consistent with the investigation data sent by the Security Bureau, which proves that the two people did not intend to play tricks on him. Yang Chendong was naturally very happy, and asked He said, "In the opinion of the two of you, if I want to recruit and expand the army here, how many people will be willing to join our Five-Star Army?"

In order not to attract the attention of Beiming, Wala, and even the Mongols, Yang Chendong planned to borrow the name of the Five-Star Army before he developed enough strength in this area.Once the time is right or you can't hide it, you can use the name of mercenary again.

In order to set an example, Yang Chendong naturally only mentioned the Five-Star Army in his speech.After saying this, he looked at Hulu and Temur with a smile, waiting for their answer.And in his heart, the revenge of the Jurchen and the Mongolian cavalry, to be honest, he really didn't take it seriously.Soldiers come to block, water comes to cover, except for not having enough troops, he is already at the forefront of other armies in any of the other items, so what is there to be afraid of?

"No problem." Facing this question, neither Hulu nor Temur hesitated at all. They even faintly felt excited when answering this question.

Although it is true that they decided to go to the Five Star Army, and it should not be a problem to serve as an officer with their own bravery.However, if more captives and civilians from Narcissus Town could be recruited and enlisted in the army, it would of course be more conducive for them to quickly establish their prestige based on their already familiar relationships.After all, everyone is familiar with each other. If you want to achieve the goal of taking care of each other, if you have familiar people, who would look for strangers?

"Hehe, good." Yang Chendong nodded in satisfaction. He could see that Hu and Lu were thinking carefully, but he didn't care. As long as such thinking was not harmful to the overall situation, he would allow it to exist. "Since this is the case, the next step is to trouble the two to cooperate with regiment leader Wu Sheng, political commissar Chen Bo, and regiment leader Zhuifeng to do a good job of recruiting troops."
