The orders of those who were brought out were predestined. Just like in Quyi City, the temporary small square was full of wooden stakes, and more than 20 people were tied to it one by one, and then the people gathered, and the Han people were singled out separately, and naturally became a special class, living a life of food and clothing.

After converging with Chen Bo's three battalions, the army expanded to more than 8,000 people, just to clean up a not very large northern belt city, which was more than enough, for a time the Han people were raising their voices, and the Jiaozhi people became nervous, even when they slept at night, they did not dare to completely close their eyes, for fear that some mercenaries would rush in and take them out to parade in the streets and bundle trees.

It's no wonder that the people of Jiaozhi are so worried and afraid, because of the identification of the Han people every day, many of the Jiaozhi people who have bullied them are taken out of the warm bed in the dark night, and only those who have always been kind to people can really sleep peacefully.

In just two days, the atmosphere of the entire North Belt City has also changed. Especially when the mercenaries announced that they had arrested almost all the people who should be arrested, and that there would be no other accidents that would not disturb the lives of the local people, this panic slowly subsided.

It was also at this time that the news about the arrival of Prime Minister Ruan Xuan Cheng to negotiate reached the ears of Yang Chendong of the Northern Belt City. According to the news of the envoy, at most tomorrow afternoon, Prime Minister Ruan Cheng will rush to Beidai City, and I hope that everyone can sit down and talk calmly.

As for Jiaozhi's desire to negotiate, or even to give in, some officers of the Yang New Army did not agree. They believe that even if the advantage is completely in their own hands, then they will of course destroy the country when they come to Jiaozhi. But for some reason, the sixth young master actually agreed to the other party's request for negotiation, and said that the other party was welcome to enter the city.

As soon as the news came out, many officers were puzzled, and those with bad tempers were even more angry. That is, the order was issued by Yang Chendong, or it was replaced by other generals, I am afraid that even Leng Song and Kaohsiung will be criticized.

The officers below did not understand this decision, and there was resistance in their hearts, and Kong Jie, the political commissar of the Leng Feng Second Regiment who was doing ideological work, found Yang Chendong as soon as possible and expressed his worries.

Seeing Kong Jie's embarrassed expression, after seeing Yang Chendong, he said: "Sixth Young Master, for the matter of negotiating with Jiaozhi, the officers below have a lot of emotions, although they can't see anything now, but if they can't explain it clearly, it will have a very important impact on the morale of the army." ”

Kong Jie came here, naturally he didn't blame Yang Chendong, and he didn't dare to do it. It's just because of the need for duty to report your worries.

Yang Chendong can understand this, and he naturally has the intention of doing so. Even if Kong Jie came to the door, it was time to give an explanation to the officers below. "Okay, Political Commissar Kong, you don't have to be too anxious, this matter is a decision made by Young Master Ben, of course I have enough reasons, so let's notify the officers above the battalion and the instructors of each battalion to come to the meeting, Young Master Ben has something to say."

Seeing that Yang Chendong was going to explain this matter to everyone in person, Kong Jie raised his eyebrows, and immediately said: "My subordinates will go to notify me, and I will notify you." ”

In less than half an hour, all the battalion commanders and instructors of the same level in the North Belt City rushed to the General's Mansion in the city, which was also the original residence of Pan Wenfei, but that person is now dead, and this place has naturally become Yang Chendong's temporary residence.

More than 30 battalion-level officers all rushed over and stood neatly in the courtyard, looking at Yang Chendong, who was looking up at the sky.

This has been going on for quite some time. Obviously, Yang Chendong called them over, but the sixth young master didn't say a word, just looked up at the sky, and everyone naturally didn't dare to urge, so they had to stand in a standard military posture and straighten their bodies.

It was about a cup of tea, Yang Chendong slowly lowered his head, to be honest, this has been looking up at the sky, and it is uncomfortable for a long time. But in order to remind these officers that there are some things that have to be done.

It is certainly a good thing that the officers are able to have their own ideas. But casually dare to question Shangguan's decision, this wind cannot rise. It's like a platoon commander, what he sees is the soldiers of his platoon, and that must have limitations. The company commander only sees a company, unlike the battalion commander who can see more of the big picture. As the actual founder of the mercenary army and the supreme leader, Yang Chendong naturally sees the overall situation in his eyes, and in order to complete the arrangement of this overall situation, it is inevitable that there will be concessions in some places.

For example, allowing the prime minister to come to negotiate is affected by the overall situation. And as the territory of this kind of thing gets bigger and bigger in the future, the probability of occurrence will also increase, and he can't explain it to the officers below every time.

This time can be an exception, but only this time. Yang Chendong just wants to tell everyone through this matter that you can doubt the decision he made, but you must obey it, otherwise, you can stay where it is cool. Three-legged toads can't be found, but two-legged people can have.

Seeing that the time of a pillar of incense passed, the emotions of the officers below became much quieter, and Yang Chendong finally spoke. "I don't care what you think of yourself, and no matter what kind of unconvincing and different ideas you have in your hearts, now Young Master Ben will ask you a word, with our current strength, can we take all the Cochin cities without blood?"

Blood or not blood?

Hearing Yang Chendong say this, all the officers shook their heads in unison. If it is said that it is a hard attack, there is really nothing in the city in Jiaozhi that they can't attack, but if it is said that it is impossible to take the city without moving a single shot.

Seeing that all the officers were shaking their heads, Yang Chendong snorted coldly, and a sharp glint flashed in his eyes, "Even if you can't do this, what do you have to be arrogant about, why can't you have a good talk with the other party's envoy?" Do you just want to show your strength at the expense of the Han people? ”

Under the stern accusations, the faces of some officers became very difficult to look at. They just considered that their military strength was already very strong, such as the defense of the northern belt city was the best example, even if they had already grasped such the initiative, why did they still negotiate? Isn't this the vain wax of a blind man lighting a lamp?

But as soon as they heard Yang Chendong's questioning voice, they thought that such a reckless behavior would kill the entire Han people in Jiaozhi.

Even if they were able to penetrate the cities of Jiaozhi with their strong strength, couldn't they kill all the Han people in the city before they arrived? If that is the case, what will they gain even if they kill the people of Jiaozhi? It's nothing more than empty cities with nothing. This was not their original strategic purpose, they were opening up another base here, not just to show off their military strength.

It can be said that as soon as Yang Chendong's words came out, many officers understood what was going on. Thinking that he was just a common man not long ago, and he was also living in dire straits, if it weren't for the Sixth Young Master who rescued them, gave them power, and gave them the most powerful advanced firearms, I am afraid that some people would have become dead people now. Most people are still running around to eat and fill their stomachs, where does this morale and sharpness come from?

The officers who had figured everything out lowered their heads one by one, reflecting on their erroneous thoughts.

Seeing that the officers understood what they meant so quickly, Yang Chendong's face became a little better. "Well, the matter has been told to you, if anyone is still dissatisfied with the next negotiation with Jiaozhi, they can say it to their face. But there is one thing, if you don't have an opinion now, you are not allowed to discuss this matter after you go back, otherwise you will be caught and dismissed, and you will not care what military exploits you have made. ”

"No, no, the sixth young master is wise." There was a sudden sound of convincing from below.

It's no wonder that these people figured it out so quickly, because of their limited vision, they only thought about it too much, they just saw the immediate benefits. Now that they knew that the Sixth Young Master was thinking about all the Han people, how could the officers who were once part of them not understand?

"Once you figured it out, the meeting was dismissed. It is much better to have time to train more and help the people in the city to do more work than to think about it every day. Yang Chendong waved his hand casually, and then the courtyard that was originally full of people instantly walked away.

The reason why he was able to calm down the officers' resentment so quickly was that in addition to Yang Chendong's aura of being the sixth young master, what he did was indeed for the sake of the Han people. Do you think he wants to negotiate with someone? It's just that if they don't do this, they will really be in a hurry, then they will first take out anger on the Han people in the territory, and at that time it will not be one or two people who will die, whether it is written in the information of the Security Bureau, or what Hong Jin said who surrendered, it proves that in the country of Jiaozhi, which has less than 3 million people, the Han people alone account for 200,000 people, which is a fifteenth proportion.

If these Han people were killed, it would definitely be a big loss for the Han people. What's more, many of these people have lived here since childhood, they have feelings for this place, and they also know how to build here. What Yang Chendong lacks most now is population and time, after all, the world is so big, and if you want to completely conquer it, you don't know how many years it will take to do it.
