Devil’s Advent

v2 Chapter 2: Recruit

    On the official road, you can see teams escorting prisoners everywhere. Zheng Fan is riding a horse, and Siniang and Aming are beside him.

   Jingnan Hou did indeed regard Zheng Fan as his own, and even the funeral affairs of his family were handed over to Zheng Fan. It took Zheng Fan a lot of time to finish these things.

   Siniang and Aming accompanied Zheng Fan to Beijing this time, but when they set off, because Zheng Fan was riding in Jingnanhou’s carriage, they had always followed from a distance.

   After Zheng Fan experienced the thrilling Yanjing twelve o'clock,

   Aming and Siniang were recruited by Zheng Fan to go to the farm to help collect their bodies.

Although I did not personally participate in the purge of the celebrities, looking at the work of less than ten and a half months, from the team of prisoners on the official road, you can probably see clearly how big the scale of this purge is. Up.

   Most of the escorted men were young and middle-aged men. Even if they were a little older, it would be no problem to send them to the front line to be a civilian husband.

The Emperor Yan wanted to clean up the Dayan Clan, but did not massacre all of them. Of course, the top Clan Clan must be resolutely erased from the body, but the number of the Dayan Clan Clan was forcibly labeled as a "criminal." Under the will of Emperor Yan, the prisoners will advance to Yinlang County in the south.

There,

   will be the first line of Yan's attack,

  While war does consume a lot of materials, money and food,

   But the most direct consumable for war is human life!

   Zheng Fan didn't know if it was the same when Qin Shihuang confiscated prisoners and civil servants, but when he saw it with his own eyes, he was still shocked by the scenes on the official road.

   The army upholds the will of the monarch and begins to wield the blade,

   The entire country of Yan also began to carry out the most brutal and direct war mobilization under the order of the Emperor Yan.

Naturally, the huge land owned by the family has been confiscated. The huge hidden households that belonged to the family and not the country were re-stated and catalogued by the court. Most of them will continue to cultivate the original land. The gate valve became a country.

   In ancient times, the centralization process of the central government was a see-saw between the central and local governments for “land” and “population”.

   In the historical process that Zheng Fan is familiar with, it seems that every ancient dynasty that has created brilliance has centralized power before creating brilliance, so that it can concentrate its efforts on major tasks.

   It’s just that Zheng Fan could clearly feel the hostility of these prisoners when he passed by these prisoners.

   The prince who was originally aloof, now became a prisoner.

   In Dayan’s hundreds of years of political system, the Ji family and aristocratic family have always ruled the world together. These descendants of the aristocratic family are, strictly speaking, the masters of the country.

   Actually, the balance between the imperial power and the family power has never been broken.

  Emperor power is because the first emperor relied on the support of Zhenbeihoufu to succeed, and the extravagant enjoyment of the first emperor when he was in the throne further shrank. The family members, in fact, have never slackened their guard against the expansion of imperial power.

   But no matter how much guarding, no matter how scheming, they can't match the two words: naive.

  Emperor Yan really believes that he will not rebel when he is sitting on a heavy army with the one who grabbed chicken legs when he was a child, and accepted everything in Zhenbeihou;

Zhenbei Hou Tian really believed that Emperor Yan was not a temptation to himself. He gave the 300,000 Zhenbei Army to his majesty. He personally used it as a plow, willingly carrying the infamous general Dayan on the land for hundreds of years. The celebrities plowed once.

   Jingnan Hou Tianzhen joined the two of Zhenbeihou and Yanhuang, and he did not hesitate to slaughter his family to show his break with the past.

   The emperor’s jealousy, the boundary between the monarch and the minister, seemed to have not been reflected in the three of them. The three innocent guys worked hard to turn this big swallow upside down.

   There are three heroes in one generation, and these three heroes are still standing together.

   When the Zhenbei Army and Jingnan Army cavalry rolled over behind Yan Huang that day,

   The officials and the celebrities all "cocked" in their hearts at the same time.

   They understand,

   Great Yan’s heaven,

changed!

It was like overnight, the wealth that belonged to them, their status, and their dignity were completely deprived of them. They were sent to the front lines of southern Xinjiang by the Emperor Yan, who wanted to take up soldiers to atone for the "sin" that they suddenly added. , To fight for the "freedom" that I originally had but lost overnight.

They, in Zheng Fan’s view, are very much like the gang of barbarians under his hands. The barbarians under Zheng Fan’s hands are from the criminal tribe. Their relatives are controlled by the big tribe, and they are reduced to the big tribe to fight. Cannon fodder consumables at the time.

   These prisoners are the same. Their family members are controlled in their place of origin or in the capital, waiting for them to use their military exploits to exchange their freedom.

   From a chick to a sparrow and then from a sparrow to an eagle, suddenly, he changed back to a chick, and began to work hard to become a sparrow again.

   "The scale is huge." Ah Ming said with emotion.

   Zheng Fan looked at A Ming and nodded.

   Although Aming is a vampire, he is not very old, at least not so exaggerated as to be incomparable with Liang Cheng.

   Zheng Fan knows even better that the present Dayan has been boiled by the three dreamers.

   is equivalent to the stud doing everything. If the next attack fails to achieve great results, and the external expansion fails to achieve great success, the boiling water is likely to burn on one's own body.

   This is a gamble,

   those three,

  I was gambling on the national fortune.

at last,

  Zheng Fan and the three stopped.

   Nanwangcheng is here.

  ……

   After the Jingnan Army withdrew from Nanwang City, Xu Wenzu finally realized the feeling of being a general soldier.

   But he hadn't breathed the free and fresh air for long, and the news from the capital directly scared him to the ground.

   Good fellow, more than three hundred catties of fat was piled directly on the ground, but the entourages around him took a lot of effort to help him up.

   Immediately afterwards, the Jingnan Hou Jun, who returned with the evil spirits of slaughtering his family, issued an order, and the family clan of Yinlang County was trampled by the iron hoof of the Jingnan Army.

However, it was because the assassination of the General Military Mansion had cleared a batch earlier, and the Yinlang County itself was the battlefield of the Northern Expedition of the Qianguo a hundred years ago, so the climate here is not as rich as other places in Dayan. This second round of liquidation did not take much time.

   Then,

   Various materials of the imperial court began to be sent to Yinlang County, to the Jingnan Army, and to Nanwang City. After hundreds of years of terror wealth accumulated by the family's clan was confiscated by the court, they were immediately sent to the "war zone" by the Emperor Yan.

   This is a national battle that belongs to Dayan!

   Entering Nanwang City, Zheng Fan went straight to the General Military Mansion.

   After receiving the notification from the next person, Xu Wenzu immediately came to the meeting room to meet Zheng Fan.

   Zheng Fan is drinking tea,

   I took a look at Xu Wenzu,

   "噗......"

  The tea overflows directly from the corner of the mouth.

   "Brother Zheng, Brother Zheng?"

   Zheng Fan raised his hand and signaled that he was okay. In ancient times, there was no napkin, so he could only wipe his mouth with his sleeve.

   is really Xu Wenzu's current look, which makes people too caught off guard.

   It can be seen that Xu Wenzu is very tired, but he is not too thin, but more puffy, especially after the bags under the eyes are pulled down, it looks like a thick cartoon effect.

   As for Xu Wenzu calling himself "Brother Zheng," Zheng Fan didn't panic. The six princes no longer called themselves "lonely" in front of him, and it is normal for Xu Wenzu to no longer call himself "the official".

   Zheng Defence also found it interesting. He had always been talking about the tiger skins of Zhenbeihou, but in the end it was Jingnanhou's coat that really wore on.

   But no matter what, after tossing and tossing, I finally tossed out a little bit, and I don't need to bend my knees as frequently as before.

   "Brother Zheng, come."

   Xu Wenzu personally led Zheng Fan to his study. Zheng Fan had been here last time.

   In Xu Wenzu’s yard, people are all coming and going. Everyone is very busy, not as deserted as the last time.

   After entering the study, Xu Wenzu closed the door of the study, then walked onto the master chair by himself, and collapsed directly.

   Zheng Fan had only heard of "Women are made of water" before,

right now,

   He witnessed that as long as you are fat enough, you can be made of water.

   After Xu Wenzu sat down, his stomach to the chin position, he also rolled several waves, which could not be calmed for a long time.

   "Brother Zheng, my officer, I'm tired and thin..."

"Yup."

   Zheng Fan really knows that work that consumes too much energy like staying up late can really make people puffy.

   "Oh, this is the first time I've been tired like this after being an official for half my life."

   "It is not easy for adults to work for the country."

   "Stop talking nonsense, brother, I can take a breather by talking to you, don't you know, how many government orders my general army has to issue a day, Zhiniang!"

   Huge amounts of supplies and prisoners were escorted to Yinlang County one after another. Everything needs Xu Wenzu, the General Soldier of Nanwang City, to manage.

   I don’t know if it’s worried that someone will be holding it back or how to drop it.

   But from Zheng Fan's way into Nanwang City, I saw that although the city seemed a little bloated, it could still be said to be well-organized.

   This is enough to show Xu Wenzu's ability. Perhaps, the reason why the court transferred him here, what he valued should be his level of handling the complicated work.

   Xu Pang Pang did indeed live up to the court's expectations.

   Maybe, life is like this;

   Zheng Fan still remembers that when he was in Hutou City, Xu Wenzu was still discussing with himself how he would dedicate the city after the Zhenbei Army turned back.

At that time, most of Xu Wenzu’s energy was actually placed in political struggle and standing in line. In short, he was not like an official but more like a bureaucrat. But now, although he is tired, he can feel it, his spirit God is still good.

   There is no need to think about intrigue, it is also a kind of enjoyment to be able to do things steadily and thoughtfully.

   "I already know about the capital, haha, hahahaha..."

   Xu Wenzu burst out laughing.

   The two people who once pondered the plan of the Hou Mansion below did not expect that in the end their Master Hou would wear a pair of trousers with the Emperor Yan. This is the most dreamy result, but at the same time, it is also the best result.

  Dayan, instead of facing the terrible internal friction and civil war, he can mobilize all forces to carry out the largest and most invested external development in a century.

   "My lord, the officer has just returned from the capital, and he hasn't returned to the fortress yet. First come here to see you."

   Xu Wenzu pointed his finger at Zheng Fan, he naturally guessed Zheng Fan's intention.

   "Don't worry, I keep it for you, the two of us are the real ones."

   Zheng Fan nodded, although he didn't understand how he had become a stooge of Jingnanhou and Xu Wenzu, but Shangfeng took the initiative to establish a relationship with you, and you would never ruin the atmosphere stupidly.

   "Although the Huo family in Huwei County is a family with a century of inheritance, this family has a strong ethos of martial arts, and each of the Huo family's children is practiced.

   Brother, I didn't break them up or assign them, so I stayed here all the time, just for you. "

   The prisoners were escorted over, naturally not all of them were used as civilian husbands. They were actually more equivalent to reserve troops, or to substantiate local troops.

The Jingnan Army has its own reserve of 50,000 rear battalions, and is similar to the elite of the Jingnan Army. Blind expansion can only lead to a decline in its combat power. Therefore, the Jingnan Army has not recruited many prisoners and turned to Yinlang. The counties and the fortresses and the military stations come to absorb.

  Anyway, the local security forces use it as cannon fodder most of the time. Whether they can make gold or not, just practice and see.

  With some dark thoughts, I guessed that the court escorted the criminals to the front line to fight, wasn't it just to consume them deliberately.

   They do not die and stay in the country, but they are hidden dangers.

   "Huo family, how many people?"

   "More than seven hundred people."

   According to tradition, these clan prisoners will most likely be distributed after being broken up, that is, refugees in a place will also pay attention to breaking them up when resettled, let alone a family.

But if you can't break it up, there are actually both advantages and disadvantages. If you can't suppress them, these people will gather to rebel against you, and even the family members who are left behind will not be able to get it right. It is also possible to defect directly to an enemy country.

   But if you can suppress them and tame them, the children of a family of seven hundred, after being really thrown on the battlefield, it will be difficult for them to collapse and escape, and they will be more resilient.

   "Okay, I want it, armor, ordnance, food, these..."

"rest assured!"

   Xu Wenzu stretched out his hand to signal Zheng Fan to pull him up, and said at the same time:

   "The people below say that I am eccentric, so I am eccentric. Anyway, my brother is fat and thick-skinned, hehe."

  Actually, there is no shortage of food, grass, weapons, armor, and horses in Zheng Fan’s Cui Liu Fort, but the more the better.

   "Thank you, sir."

"Oh, hey, don’t see outside, don’t see outside, I’m betting on you, you must fight for my breath, seeing the war is about to start, really, brother, I’m here If you can't say it, you have to go into battle!"

   "..." Zheng Fan.

   A picture of Xu Pangpang charging on a horse came into Zheng Fan’s mind.

   Then a group of people hid behind Xu Wenzu to avoid arrows when they charged...

   Or, during the city defense, Xu Wenzu was directly used as a sandbag and thrown behind the city gate to resist the enemy's rush...

   Of course, these situations basically won't happen. If Dayan's army is really to the point where even Xu Pang Pang has to charge, then it is really not far from subjugating the country.

   Xu Wenzu must be on the battlefield at the meeting. He is the general soldier and it is impossible not to lead the army. But what he is doing now is to build his own lineage based on his relationship with Zheng Fan.

   If Xu Wenzu had smashed the sand top stone that smashed his carriage, and now lies in the Cui Liu Fort, I guess...

   "You will live up to the high expectations of adults!"

   People give you such a big face and such a big benefit, Zheng Fan really doesn't mind saying a loud and sincere salute.

  …………

   Leaving the General Military Mansion, under the leadership of a trusted school lieutenant dispatched by Xu Wenzu, Zheng Fan came to a school in the city.

   Inside the school grounds were crowded, and there were many prisoners in custody. Some prisoners were chained but most of them were not restricted. They were just trapped in various areas.

   Outside the school grounds, there are soldiers armed with bows and crossbows in charge of guarding.

Inside   , there are many military leaders and clerks shuttled back and forth.

   Aming who followed Zheng Fan whispered to Zheng Fan:

   "It looks like a livestock market."

   "Yes." Zheng Fan nodded in agreement.

   "My lord, if this battle does not go smoothly, then the country of Yan will have a big problem."

"Ok."

   Zheng Fan also felt it. If he had previously expressed admiration for the majesty of Emperor Yan and the two masters, now he can truly feel the signs of volcanic eruption under this majesty.

   Possibly, there was only one Zheng Fan in Yan Kingdom before, but now, Emperor Yan has created countless Zheng Fan out by himself.

   If there is a problem with the war, and at the same time something happens to one of the Yanhuang three, then this group of people with vengeance and anger...

   You should know that in this world, most of the elites carry the label of "fellow".

   If one can't make it right, it is a new round of Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms.

   "Master Zheng, Huo's family is here."

   The school lieutenant appointed by Xu Wenzu led Zheng Fan to a fence.

   Behind the fence, there are a group of people sitting, and you can clearly see the kind of order they have.

   At this time, a person in the crowd stood up and walked over~lightnovelpub.net~ His eyes fell on the captain, and finally, on Zheng Fan.

   yelled in a very jealous tone:

   "Oh, who is the adult who wants to buy us to go back!"

   "Presumptuous!"

   The school lieutenant scolded immediately.

   Zheng Fan didn’t even bother to get angry because of the other’s unruly attitude. Once he believed that no matter how rebellious the group would be, after returning to Liang Cheng and the blind man to reform, the problem should not be big.

  Secondly, Zheng Fan's attention at this time was attracted by the fence next door, just as he noticed him at the first glance at the funeral of the former commander-in-chief Xiao Dahai.

   The other party leaned there, seeming to be in a daze.

   Zheng Fan ignored Huo’s stabbing head first, but walked to the side of the fence, reached out and knocked.

   "Brother Zuo?"

   After hearing this claim, the person trembled first, and then turned his head to look at Zheng Fan.

   His hands immediately grabbed the fence excitedly,

   shouted at Zheng Fan:

   "Brother Zheng, no no no, Master Zheng, Master Zheng, you do it well, do it well, accept me, accept me!"
