Wang Mi's voice echoed on the high platform: "Let's take a look, take a look, these Qin army captives, but they are all healthy people in the Qin army, for more than a month, we have done several rounds of physical testing and screening among all the Qin captives, and the weaker ones have been sold as ordinary slaves a few days ago, and these remainders, all of them can reach the physical fitness close to the Beifu army, if you buy them back, you can not only take care of the family, but also join the army as a part when there is a war, and make meritorious contributions." There is a decree from the Holy Father, each prisoner of war only needs 4,000 yuan to start shooting, what are you still hesitating about, go and choose the person you want. ”

Xie Xuan sat in the pergola, smiling, looking at these captives on the stage, Wang Gong swept over these people with an excited face, and said with a smile: "Sure enough, it is a healthy person in the Qin army, look at those muscles, those scars, although the complexion is not very good now, but as long as it is slightly adjusted, it will definitely be a strong warrior, Yudu, do you want these people, if you don't want it, I will make a move." ”

Xie Xuan smiled and said: "A-Ning, you really should stay in the army for a while, what kind of high-quality goods are these people, that is, the level of ordinary sergeants, I dare to say that their level and physical strength will not exceed that of ordinary sergeants in Dajin." ”

Wang Gong's eyes widened, he looked at the people standing on the stage again, and shook his head in disbelief: "No, these people's arms are so thick, they look like strong people, how can they only be at the level of ordinary sergeants?" Youdu, although I have been in the army for a short time, don't lie to me, this good soldier can still be seen. ”

Xie Xuan smiled slightly, turned his head to look at Liu Gaozhi behind him: "Prison, what do you think?" ”

Liu Gaozhi said indifferently: "What the lord said is that these people are not excellent soldiers, their upper body strength is good, but the lower plate is unstable, look at those legs, now standing here are shaking, this shows that these people are obviously Han people who mainly farm, so they will have strong upper limbs, but they are not professional warriors, if they are warriors, the first push is to push the lower plate, whether it is marching or arraying, they all require the strength of the legs and waist, so I think they are just Han strong men who were temporarily captured in the Qin army, That is, the average sergeant level. ”

Wang Gong opened his mouth wide, looked at these people, and said curiously: "No, aren't they all braided, they are all Suolu, why did they become Han again?" ”

Liu Gaozhi smiled slightly: "In order to sell these people smoothly, of course, I have to say that they are all Hu barbarians, and it is not troublesome to temporarily braid their hair, you know, if it is a Han person, eighty percent of it is sold as an ordinary slave, but if it is a Hu person who can fight, it is also a part again, and the treatment is still much worse, and it can be seen from the value." ”

Wang Gong nodded thoughtfully: "Yes, usually a slave costs five thousand yuan, but this time it can be bought for only eight hundred yuan, not to mention these martial arts guards." So, these people can't fight? ”

Liu Gaozhi nodded: "Yes, only veterans for many years, or people who lead soldiers, can see that these people look strong, but the lower plate is vain, and the muscle lines of the upper limbs are also thick, obviously they are some croppers with strength, recruited to the Qin army as a baggage soldier, and they carry carts on their shoulders all day long, and they look quite strong, but unfortunately, veterans can see at a glance that these people can't go into battle." ”

A trace of disappointment flashed in Wang Gong's eyes: "After a long time, these people can't fight, I thought it would come in handy, alas." Hey, no, didn't you say that there were more than 100,000 prisoners of the Qin army, according to what you said, even among the remaining more than 10,000 people, there are still these weak people who can't actually fight, so is the Qin army a rabble, and they can't do it all? ”

Xie Xuan smiled slightly: "Of course not, it's just that it's rare in the world to have a professional army like the Beifu Army, which has been trained for a long time and built with a lot of money, the Qin army is one million, at least more than 900,000 are temporarily recruited Ding Zhuang, if the Hu people are okay, after all, they are nomadic all day long, they don't produce, and often fight to grab pastures, as for the Han people, they usually make a living from farming, and they don't practice war, most of them just make up a number, and when they fight, they line up in a formation, scare the other side, and fight a tough battle, which is difficult to count on." ”

"And the alien elite in the Qin army, in the battle of Weishui, was either killed because of stubborn resistance, or rode away when the situation was not good, and there were not many prisoners, but a large number of Han people who acted as rearguards and baggage troops, no war horses, and ran slowly, and fell behind to catch up with our sergeants, so they knelt directly and asked to surrender. Afterwards, we counted the captives of the Hu people of the alien race, and there were only three or four thousand people who could be called warriors, but if only three or four thousand people were allowed to participate in the auction, it would disappoint many families, and even think that our Xie family had done something wrong, so ............"

Wang Gong suddenly realized, and said with a smile: "So you let Liu Ying raise them, and put the Hu prisoners who can really fight together with most of the Han prisoners, unless they are veterans who have joined the army for many years, they can see at a glance who is good and who is bad, and others just buy some old Han farmers who look stronger, but in fact can't be soldiers, right?" ”

Xie Xuan smiled: "That's pretty much what it means, but even if you are an old farmer who has never been a soldier, as long as you are physically strong, willing to endure hardships, and train well after being incorporated into the army, you can become a strong army, who is born to fight?" So, I'm not lying to you. ”

Wang Gong smiled: "Okay, okay, then let's do it, Liu Yingyang will help me choose some strong guards in a while, I can buy a hundred this time, Liu Yingyang, this little favor, can you help me?" ”

Liu Gaozhi smiled slightly: "You should obey your fate." ”

Wang Gong looked at the stage with a smile: "Among these two hundred people, is there any guy to choose?" ”

Liu Gaozhi watched these people walk back and forth on the stage, standing, their eyes sparkling, looked at it for a while, then nodded, pointed to a few people above and said: "Like the third, sixteenth, thirty-eighth, forty-fourth, and ............ in the first row on the left."

Before he finished speaking, he only heard a gong-like voice from the other side: "I want all the fifty in the first row." ”

Everyone followed the sound, and saw a red-faced fat man in a purple satin suit, with his waist crossed, pointing to the fifty captives in the first row on the stage, and shouting loudly.

Wang Gong hooked the corners of his mouth and sneered: "It turned out to be the Chu family Sanlang, their Chu family was the ruler of the country back then, and it was considered to be a moment of power, but it hasn't been down for so many years, could it be that there are not enough people in the family, and they will ask for fifty as soon as they open their mouths?" ”
