after being kidnapped by the general

Yuan Li knew that he had made Chu Hechao angry.

He had mixed feelings in his heart.

In the fake cave, Chu Hechao made it clear that it was the last indulgence.Yuanli understood his hint, and knew that Chu Hechao just wanted to go out of line once, and after indulgence, their relationship between uncle and sister-in-law was still normal.

Sure enough, after leaving the cave, Chu Hechao treated Yuanli politely and well-behaved, so Yuanli also rationally reduced the confrontation with Chu Hechao. It is best for them to cooperate with each other and forget everything that is abnormal. result.

Yuan Li knew that even though he could bear the consequences of being with Chu Hechao, Chu Hechao couldn't.He couldn't bear the pain of taking his brother's wife away, and couldn't bear the scolding and disappointment from his parents. He was a native of ancient times, how could he bear it?

So Chu Hechao said that he would indulge only once, so Chu Hechao called his sister-in-law, all meanings were to stop here.

From this aspect, the two of them think exactly the same.

Yuanli understood and was always sensible.But seeing the back of Chu Hechao leaving in anger, he felt a little dazed and uncomfortable.

Why is Chu Hechao angry?

Didn't he think so too?

Feelings... Is this thing so complicated?

It was the first time he touched this thing, and he was at a loss.Yuanli tried to use logic and reason to analyze, but finally found that emotions were too complicated and personal for him to analyze clearly.

Yuan Li took a deep breath, trying to dissipate the depression in his heart.He deliberately ignored the sourness in his heart, and thought rationally and even coldly, if Chu Hechao was completely disappointed by his anger, then he would be disappointed. This happened to be the result that both sides wanted.

"My lord..."

The subordinates looked at him with concern.

Yuan Li said: "Nothing."

He pulled himself together, packed up the meals that Chu Hechao and the others hadn't finished eating, and gave them to the hardest-working prisoners.

These prisoners would never dislike having too much food, nor would they dislike being eaten by others.After getting the extra food, the prisoners were a little flattered, and bowed their backs: "Thank you, sir." "Thank you, sir, for the food."...

In fact, these white rice captives live very well here in Yuanli. They have a stable residence and food that can fill their stomachs. For most of the people who follow the rebellion in a daze, they can be contented with these things. .They are grateful to Yuanli who can provide them with such a life. In order not to be driven away, they work hard every time they work and never dare to be lazy.

In the afternoon, the well-fed prisoners worked faster.Because there are few potatoes and cotton seeds, these two new crops are all planted in the ground after such a busy day.

After finishing this matter, Yuanli went to find Chu Hechao.

He didn't go to Chu Hechao to talk about the incident last time, but to talk about conscription in a business-like manner.

Hearing this, Chu Hechao smiled with drooping eyelids, "Is that all you want to tell me?"

Yuan Li lowered his eyes and sat two seats away from Chu Hechao.Although he has already set his crown, in Chu Hechao's eyes, he still looks like a pretty young man.Like green willows like clear lotus, and a gentleman is as handsome and agile as jade.Chu Hechao looked at the strands of hair fluttering around his ears and the fingers holding the cuffs inch by inch, and felt an unknown fire in his heart.

It was such a lovable smiling man, with such a soft and beautiful mouth, he could say so many words that poked his heart.

The anger still remaining in Chu Hechao's heart burned silently. With a sneer, he got up and approached Yuanli.

The tall figure was getting closer and closer, and the more he looked at Yuanli, the fire in Chu Hechao's heart became more intense.There was a sharp blade of ice in his eyes, but what burned in his heart was the cage that imprisoned the beast.

Yuan Li didn't know if he felt Chu Hechao's cold and hot eyes, his eyelashes trembled, the corners of his lips pursed, looking a little nervous.

Chu Hechao looked at his throbbing eyelashes, almost in a daze.

He suddenly felt some confusion rolled out of the abyss.

What am I holding back.

Chu Mingfeng is dead, even if he is not dead, so what if I snatch his wife away?

Chu Hechao didn't care about his parents' scolding and cursing, and it didn't matter what his subordinates and people in the world thought about him.He didn't care that I used all my reason to endure not to touch his heart and said the words to urge me to get married, so why should I care about his beloved Chu Mingfeng's heart.

With his sanity at stake, Chu Hechao's Adam's apple rolled, and he said hoarsely, "Why, don't you talk anymore?"

Yuan Li's eyelids slowly lifted, and he looked up at him.

When those eyes were fixed on Chu Hechao, Chu Hechao's fire suddenly went out.

As if a basin of cold water hit his head, the image of Yuanli and Chu Mingfeng's love for each other that Yuanli had told him appeared in front of his eyes.

Chu Mingfeng's haggard appearance before he died was picked up again.

Chu Hechao was speechless.

After a while, the man wiped his face with his hand, his brows and eyes were deeply tired, he stopped looking at Yuan Li, turned around and strode to the seat to sit down, said: "Continue to talk about conscription."

In business matters, neither of them is a person who allows personal feelings to play tricks.

Youzhou soldiers must be recruited. Chu Hechao's 13 soldiers are standing troops for border defense, and soldiers in Youzhou must be recruited for training.This conscription will require at least 27 troops.The number of soldiers in the front and rear plus the number of captive camps and civilian husbands, there will be about [-] people with mouths to eat.

This is a lot of pressure, but soldiers can't help it.Regardless of the seemingly large number of these people, there are at most no more than 15 people who can be used to fight on the battlefield at any time.

"King Chenliu of Jiangdong claims to have 50 soldiers, but in fact there are only about 35 at most." Chu Hechao regained his composure, "The land in Jiangdong is fertile and the food is sufficient, so he can afford to support these 35 soldiers. Youzhou is desolate and remote, with a vast land and few people, and this time [-] soldiers is a lot."

Yuan Li thoughtfully said: "General, do you still remember the Bingzhou veteran I mentioned who taught me martial arts?"

Chu Hechao thought to himself, who would remember such trivial things as you, but when he said it, he said: "Remember."

"Bingzhou soldiers claim to be 20. This number shouldn't be too much, but most of them are militiamen." Yuan Li sighed, "There are not a few people who survived with me, a Bingzhou veteran master."

The militia refers to peasants who have been incorporated into the army without professional training.Their role is to pretend to be a large number to intimidate the enemy. In real battles, these militiamen will die the fastest, using their corpses to delay the enemy's footsteps.

Chu Hechao, "What do you want to say?"

"All the troops recruited this time will be trained by me," Yuan Li said directly, with an unquestionable tone, "I don't want to recruit soldiers who will die on the battlefield in vain, I will personally train them and train them into elite troops .”

Chu Hechao raised his eyebrows, a little surprised, "I admit that your soldiers are indeed well trained, but one hundred thousand soldiers are not the eight hundred soldiers you recruited back then, can you really train them?"

Yuan Li smiled, if it was other things, he wouldn't talk too much, but how to train soldiers scientifically and professionally, then he understands too well, "General, have you ever seen that I promised you something that was not sure? "

"No," Chu Hechao pulled his lips, "You have always been cautious."

He could see that Yuan Li had a plan in mind.

Thinking of the bravery of the soldiers around Yuanli and the ability to act with orders and orders, Chu Hechao really had some expectations.

Maybe if these soldiers are handed over to Yuanli for several years of training, they can really bring out an army as sharp as a blade.

Yuanli is the governor of Youzhou, and conscription is all his authority, and he pays money and food to support the soldiers. He said so, and Chu Hechao didn't object.It's just that Yuanli is still too young, and one hundred thousand soldiers are not as easy to deal with as one hundred, one thousand, or ten thousand soldiers. He finally said: "Yes. The general Hu Ben Zhonglang in our army, Guan Zhihuai, is also a good soldier in training , I will assign him to you."

After a pause, Chu Hechao said again: "It's up to you to decide. He is only there to assist and deal with things you find difficult."

Yuan Li couldn't help pursing his lips into a smile, "Then I'll thank the general first."

With such a smile, the atmosphere eased a lot.Chu Hechao looked at him and responded with a deep sound.

The standards for recruiting Youzhou soldiers and recruiting soldiers cannot be the same.But Yuanli's requirements are equally strict, and the only thing he relaxes is in terms of height and shape.

In terms of age requirements, he required young adults between the ages of 35 and [-] to join the army.

Except for this point, other aspects are as strict as Yuanli's recruitment of soldiers, especially the point of not accepting background contamination.

Youzhou is a place where criminals are exiled, and Yuanli will never allow exiled criminals to be incorporated into the army.Incorporating criminals into the army will first affect the status of soldiers, and second, it will affect the unity and honor of the team.

The most effective way to ensure the quality of army construction is to incorporate a sense of honor.Let everyone in the army feel proud and proud of their military status.

Only in this way can this team have a soul. The soldiers in the army will consciously maintain the military rules and regulations of the army in this kind of pride. Once such spontaneous behavior appears, it proves that this team has been distinguished from other troops. up.

When the goal of an army is not to fill the stomach but to be supported by other beliefs, this army is destined to become an indestructible and victorious army.

When Yuanli issued the news of conscription, many people rushed to Ji County to join the army.

Yuanli itself is a celebrity, and his reputation is far-reaching in the three prefectures of You, Bing, and Yi.His teacher is the great Confucian Ouyang Ting, and the person who crowned him is the grand master Cui Xuan. With such a great background, many people have already admired him a lot.Even if we just look at the celebrity Yuanli himself, Yuanli had the credit for killing Ma Renyi, not to mention this small credit, he also assisted Chu Hechao in killing Huyan Wuzhu, the leader of the Xiongnu!

This alone will make the righteous men in Youzhou come to Yuanli without hesitation.

And Yuanli even sent troops to exterminate the bandits in Youzhou. How could such a governor who loved the people like his son not let the people of Youzhou love and follow him?

But there were many people who came to apply, but because Yuanli's requirements were too strict, those who joined the army were a little hesitant.

In the end, only a handful of people were selected.

After knowing this, Yuanli pondered for a while and thought of a way.

The next day, Yuanli stayed at the conscription site in person, and when the people selected that day got together, he solemnly distributed military uniforms, weapons, and And reward money and food.

These grains are not military salaries, but rewards that they can take home. Yuan Li made it clear that this is his gratitude to the parents of these soldiers.Thanks to them for cultivating talents who can defend the country in Youzhou.

These money and food are not very much, but they are all given by the government for free.People in this era have never seen or heard such a thing, and have never heard such words from Yuanli.

After Yuan Li finished speaking, the onlookers looked at each other and were in an uproar.

The faces of the soldiers who were awarded things in public were reddish, and they were holding on to the money and food in their hands. Under the surprised or envious eyes of others, these people gradually raised their heads and chests, with inexplicable pride.

Youzhou was ravaged by war and was located in a desolate place. Most of the people were poor and desolate. Most of the people who could be sent to serve as soldiers were those who could not afford to eat.For them, money and food are always the most irresistible things.

For the righteous men who are not short of food and money, Yuanli's words of praise for them made them feel proud, and felt that Yuanli was a virtuous master who truly cherished talents and respected corporals.

After that day, more people rushed to join Yuanli.No matter how strict Yuanli's requirements are, they can't stop the soldiers who vote.

The progress of conscription is soaring, and it has begun to make rapid progress.
