The Shu army entered Shangdang this time, and the troops were divided into two routes, one was led by Liu Yin and Fu Tong to lead the Tiger Cavalry Army, the Tiger Bu Army, the Wudang Fei Army, and the Yang'an Army with a total of 60,000 troops from Pingyang to the east, and the other route led by Luo Xi to lead a part of the Yong'an Army and the Jinyang garrison with a total of 20,000 people, and went south from Jinyang.

At present, the reserve system of the Shu army is quite perfect, and the soldiers who are missing in each battle can be replenished in the first time, and the full establishment is always maintained, which is also a prerequisite for the Shu army to maintain combat effectiveness.

Now the Shu army is no longer as overstretched as before in terms of troop resources, the territory controlled is getting bigger and bigger, it is no longer difficult to recruit troops, and making full use of prisoners to replenish the troops, which can ensure to the greatest extent that the combat effectiveness of the Shu army will not decline because of the addition of new soldiers. After all, these captives were well-trained soldiers, and in the era of cold weapons, it took a long time to train a qualified infantryman, let alone an extremely demanding cavalryman.

In the battle of Pingyang alone, the captured Jin soldiers reached more than 20,000 people, in line with the principle of voluntariness, Liu selected some of them to join the ranks of the Shu army, as for the rest, they were sent to Guanzhong to go to Tuntian, Guanzhong is vast and sparsely populated, no matter how much labor is not too much.

Some people are still a little worried about Liu Yin's large-scale use of surrenders, these surrenders are unstable factors after all, and if they defect before the battle, the consequences will be unimaginable.

Liu Yin smiled indifferently at this, although this worry is not unreasonable, but Liu Yin has already made effective precautions, first of all, the troops are scattered into the Shu army, and only one soldier can be incorporated into each army, and even in a team, there can only be one or two people.

On the battlefield, even if a certain surrender has the idea of defecting, but in that kind of large-scale war, the strength of one person is very small, and if these surrendered troops cannot be connected to fight against the water, it will not have any effect at all.

Secondly, in the selection of troops, Liu Yin chose as many soldiers as possible who were originally from Yongliang and Hebei, these areas are currently under the control of the Shu army, that is to say, their parents and families have become the people of Shu Han, such soldiers, Liu Yin can use them boldly and confidently.

In fact, for ordinary soldiers, the purpose of being a soldier is just to eat a mouthful, and it will definitely not rise to the level of any national sense of honor, whether it is the Jin State or the Shu State, as long as there is food and salary, they will work for it, in this era of starvation and famine all over the world, many people come out to fight as soldiers just to not starve to death, and their consciousness is limited to this, and they defect before the battle? Without the temptation of huge benefits, the probability of this happening is slim to none.

As for the middle and upper-level officers and generals, Liu Yin is much more cautious in using them, and on the premise that their loyalty cannot be guaranteed, Liu Yin will abandon them in principle.

The generals of the army are different from ordinary soldiers, and the people who have status in the army are basically from the scholar family, and their interests are closely related to the rulers of the Jin Kingdom, and no one can guarantee that they will not defect at a critical time.

Moreover, these generals and officers are no better than ordinary soldiers, they are in charge of the army, and the danger after defection is far greater than that of ordinary soldiers.

Of course, there are also some people who are exceptions, such as Deng Ai and now Liu Yin are relying on his henchmen, such as Xian Hong, Wang Ji, Xun Kai, these people have become generals who can take charge of themselves in the Shu army, which requires Liu Yin to have a pair of fiery eyes and be able to distinguish loyalty and treachery.

Generally speaking, Liu Yin's vision is still good, and after these generals are surrendered, they are also brave and loyal, and they have made great achievements for the Shu State. Of course, there is an exception to this, that is, Yang Xin, who surrendered first and then rebelled, did bring certain losses to the Shu army, but on the whole, it was still flawed.

Therefore, Liu Yin's principle of surrendering generals is to use it cautiously, and only after truly trusting him can he dare to use military power. As for ordinary pawns, there are not too many scruples, as long as all the conditions are met, you can use them boldly with confidence.

Wenyang abandoned the western part of Shangdang, and the Shu army could drive straight into the western part of Shangdang and easily recover the western counties of Shangdang.

Here is the Shu army to fight against the Huns base, in the west and south of Shangdang, the Shu army has a wide base of people, when they return to this land, the people of Shangdang help the old and the young, greet each other, burn incense and worship.

The people of Shangdang have not forgotten Liu Yin's kindness, and if it were not for Liu Yin, they would probably still be living under the rule of the Hu people, and they would have become the food in the mouth and the meal on the plate of the cruel and tyrannical people. That dark period of time is unbearable to look back, that is the eternal pain left in the hearts of the Han people, it is precisely because Liu Yin eliminated the Qianren and eliminated the Huns, that he was able to return the party and the people to a blue sky.

The people are kind, life-saving grace, such as the weight of Mount Tai, how can they forget, when Liu Yin left the party, the people of the party sent each other off, sobbing and reluctant, and returned to the party today, he is still supported and welcomed by the people of the party. There are people who offer wine, cattle and sheep, and cloth and silk, and these people are eager to pour out everything they have in their families to thank Liu Yin for his kindness.

Liu Yin smiled, all the gifts offered by the people, he smiled one by one, although these things are not valuable, but it represents the sincere heart of the people of the party, how Liu Yin refused.

However, although things are not valuable, but for ordinary people, they are doing their best, Liu Yin naturally understands in his heart, he secretly instructed Chen Shou in private, everything sent by the people must be registered one by one, and then pay the people money and food, the people's hearts cannot be refused, but Liu Yin does not want this to become a burden for them.

At the same time, Liu Yin also instructed Chen Shou to prepare some money, grain, cloth and silk, and distribute them to the people in the way of helping the people. Back then, in the Shangdang anti-Hu war, without the support of these people, Liu Yin could not hold on no matter what, the army and the people have a deep affection, and now the Shu army is not what it used to be, and take out some money and food to feed the people in the base area, which can be regarded as repaying the support of the people back then.

Water can carry a boat, but also can capsize a boat, without the people of the world as the cornerstone, any regime will be a castle in the air, supported by the people, will this sit on the world will be far away? (To be continued.) )
