Chapter 1518
After Bai Guangen finished speaking, the whole room fell silent.
The generals under Ma Ke's command had different expressions, and they didn't know how much they thought for a while.
Ma Ke suddenly said, "Brother Bai, you said that the capital will be lost and the Great Ming will be destroyed, what's going on?"
He stared at Bai Guangen with burning eyes, as if he didn't know what to do. Willing to miss a word.
Bai Guangen rejoiced when he heard it, and said with a smile: "Brother Ma heard right. The capital will be lost, and the Great Ming will be destroyed. Brother Ma thinks it's the Mountain and Sea Trial for my lord's northern expedition. This way, right?"
Ma Ke took a deep breath: "I heard that he only occupied Henan last year, and Henan has suffered from thieves, almost thousands of miles of bare land, where did he come from? The cost of the Northern Expedition? How did the Mountain and Sea Trial get lost? Could it be the waterway?"
Bai Guangen laughed: "Brother Ma is right, I won the Mountain and Sea Trial, and it was indeed the waterway. But Brother Ma has limited vision, how do you know the foundation of my master? Brother Ma knows, how long did it take for me to lead six thousand troops to seize the pass?"
Ma Ke shook his head.
Bai Guangen said: "I heard the alarm bell and immediately put on my armor to give an order. Before the wall was reached, the city was broken. In less than one hour, 5,000 defenders were beheaded, and the remaining 14,000 bowed their heads and surrendered. My commander is prosperous, saying Great Ming, even Tatar is far inferior. I Lord God is unpredictable, unifies the world is destiny, trifling Tatar, sooner or later will perish.”
He also said: "I am in charge of the northern expedition, and this way I will seize the Mountain and Sea Trial to reject the eastern captives. There are two other troops, hehe, I think Brother Ma is not ignorant. Emperor Chongzhen sent an edict to King Qin, and that's why."
After listening to this, Ma Ke expressed his incomprehension to Bai Guangen's fanaticism, but he knew that it was a fact that Emperor Chongzhen sent an order to King Qin.
The so-called rebels have indeed come to the capital.
He took a breath and said, "If I want to vote for him, what's the benefit?"
Bai Guangen heard this laughed heartily, pointing to Ma Ke and almost burst into tears: " Brother Ma is exhausted, also do you want to benefit?"
Ma Ke's face was extremely ugly.
Bai Guangen said: "My lord is not Emperor Chongzhen, my lord is strong, if Brother Ma still relies on his own troops and threatens my lord as he used to threaten Great Ming, this idea is probably wrong. My lord has Yan: Guan Ning's army is optional. With the strength of my main army, only one Mountain and Sea Trial is enough, trifling eastern captives, nothing difficult. Brother Ma, now is not the time to talk about conditions, life and death are at stake."
Ma Ke and the others are pale, not good-looking.
Bai Guangen said: "At this time, in the Mountain and Sea Trial, I am afraid that the army is already being reorganized. For example, my servant's standard camp must have been dismantled and reorganized. If Brother Ma votes for my master, he will also Of course. However, the new dynasties have always been fixed, and the generals are all selfless soldiers. This is the truth. But after all, there is no need to make Tatar a slave or a maid, and there is no need to see the ancestors under the Jiuquan. There is a trade-off between them, Brother Ma himself."
Then got up and said, "Brother Ma, please arrange a place for my brother, I will come back tomorrow to hear Brother Ma's decision."
With that, he went out.
Ma Ke was expressionless, and with nodded beside him, someone went out to arrange accommodation for Bai Guangen.
At this time, Ma Ke said with a serious face: "What do you have to say to Bai Guangen?"
The generals looked at each other, and there was no one for a while say.
All are in a mess, and there is no choice for the time being.
Ma Ke sighed: "What Bai Guangen said is not unreasonable. The Mountain and Sea Trial has been lost. I have an eastern prisoner in front of the guard, and there is no way to retreat. It is indeed a matter of life and death. If you vote for Tatar, after all Without Zu Dashou, it is not as good as Wu Sangui. When he goes away, he will definitely be a slave and a maid, which will bring shame to his ancestors. However, listening to Bai Guangen's words, the man in Henan must be a strong person and cannot stand threats. Everyone, life and death are at stake, and I don't know how to go forward. Dare to speak your mind and speak freely."
He waved his hand and ordered the servants to surround the council chamber, with no result, and no entry or exit.
Mountain and Sea Trial.
Since Bai Guangen left, Wang Yisheng began to select and reorganize the surrendered army.
In the barracks, 14,000 Ming Army descendants were driven out of the barracks and assembled at the school grounds.
Wang Yisheng stood on the commanding stage with a cold face, and waited for a full hour before the troops were assembled.
"It's so sloppy, it's really mob." He said to another general next to him.
The commander smirked slightly: "After all, they can't be mentioned on equal terms with us. Brother Wang expects too much." "It can be seen from here that the death of the Great Ming is not without reason."
After the 14,000 soldiers were assembled, they stood on the stage and looked at the two groups, completely different.
In front of them is the standard battalion of servants of the subordinate generals. Regardless of their attitude and temperament, or equipped with armour, it is almost a difference between Heaven and Earth compared to the ordinary soldiers at the back.
Of course, the surrounding Asgardian soldiers are also incomparable, not comparable.
Ordinary soldiers, in addition to having a knife or a gun, even military uniforms like the mandarin duck jacket are only available to one third person. And mostly junk.
Servant is fully armed, of course, that's it.
Ordinary soldiers are more cowering, and they are yellow-skinned and thin-skinned. The servant standard camp is also much more powerful, several times stronger.
Subsequent selections, first rounds are based on age. Those under 16 years old and over 40 years old will be eliminated.
Then look at the physique. Those who are weak and sick are not, and those who meet the health standards are qualified.
After two rounds of selection, nearly half of the 14,000 soldiers were eliminated, leaving 7,200 soldiers.
Wang Yisheng waved his hand, dismissed those who were eliminated, and sent back the barracks.
Then the final round of selection.
7,200 people, in groups of 600 people, will be assessed on physical fitness and will. Run around the school grounds until Wang Yisheng calls to stop.
During this process, those with unqualified physical fitness and unqualified perseverance will be eliminated.
The final round of the test does not end until the second day. In the end, 3,000 qualified soldiers were selected, and more than half of them were eliminated again.
In other words, out of 14,000 soldiers, the final preliminary qualification was only 3,000 people, which was exactly one division.
"Master, at the end the general will select 3,000 who are barely qualified, and the rest will be eliminated."
Ying Yi heard this and said, "There will be 5,000 Ming General servants, How can three thousand be qualified?"
Wang Yisheng said: "Returning to the lord, although the standard battalion of subdued generals is a lot more powerful than ordinary subdued soldiers, it also has many shortcomings."
Ying Yi said: "Let's hear it."
Wang Yisheng bowed and said, "Although Ming General's servant standard camp is strong, he is more domineering, bully the weak and fear the strong. In terms of perseverance, there is no advantage over ordinary convoys. Among the 3,000 people selected, the standard battalion of servants and the ordinary conscripts accounted for almost half."
Ying Yi immediately understood.
In group battles, physique is one of them, but if you only have physique without perseverance, it is just an embroidered pillow, it looks good, but it is useless.
Although the Ming Army servant standard battalion is stronger than ordinary soldiers, it cannot fight tough battles either. In this regard, it is not much stronger than ordinary soldiers.
Ying Yi shook the head: "The left and right are just waste utilization, don't worry about him. Three thousand is already very good."
