Dynasty Conquest

Chapter 352
The Repulse Bay that had been engulfed by the fire was in a mess, and as the withered grass in a radius of tens of miles turned to ashes, the fire finally stopped spreading at night, and the [-] evil soldiers under Zhao Feng's command were also burnt to black in the fire corpse.

Lin Chuan sat quietly on the hillside outside Repulse Bay, surrounded by guard soldiers standing guard. As night fell, Lin Chuan became inexplicably irritable.

"Is there no news about Zhao Feng?" Lin Chuan asked again.

The battalion commander Lei Tian, ​​who was guarding Lin Chuan, was silent and shook his head. This was the fifth time Lin Chuan had asked him. Lei Tian could feel Lin Chuan's tone becoming more and more dissatisfied.

Zhao Feng not only caused heavy losses to the Nanchuan Army, but also immediately led his troops to chase and kill the Nanchuan Army after surrendering to the Dynasty Army. For these despicable villains, Lin Chuan wished to eat their flesh and lay their skins on their skins, but after the fire, Zhao Feng seemed to disappear out of thin air In general, I searched for the whole afternoon, but there was no news at all.

The search team with torches came back one after another, and many dynasty soldiers who survived the fire were also questioned one by one, but the fire burned very fast, and the situation was extremely chaotic, and they didn't notice Zhao Feng at all. Is it still alive?

"At that time, many people snatched the officers' horses in order to escape for their lives, and many officers were killed..." A prisoner said so.

"I saw the deputy army commander fall off his horse, and he should be burned to death by now." Someone also described it like this.

"..."

Lin Chuan didn't get any useful information from the captives, which made Lin Chuan very uneasy. He knew that with Zhao Feng's character of showing his teeth, if he escaped this time, he would really be letting the tiger go back to the mountain. For the future of the Nanchuan Army is a great threat.

Seeing the irritability on Lin Chuan's face, Xue Wen walked over and said in relief: "General, our people have searched the entire area, and all the survivors are here, and the rest of the people have all become charred corpses, perhaps That Zhao Feng was burned to death, we didn't recognize it."

Hearing Xue Wen's reassurance, Lin Chuan felt a little better. Maybe it was because he was too sensitive and wanted to kill Zhao Feng too much. Thinking of those piles of corpses, Lin Chuan felt relieved. Maybe Zhao Feng is really dead.

Lin Chuan took a deep breath and stood up: "Everyone has worked hard today, and I will invite everyone to drink when I return to the camp tonight."

"Oh—Long live the general—" Hearing that there was wine to drink when they returned to the camp at night, these Nanchuan soldiers suddenly cheered excitedly.

Drinking alcohol is strictly prohibited in the Nanchuan Army on weekdays, but there are exceptions, that is, the celebration wine after the victory of the war. This is a way specially approved by Lin Chuan to let the soldiers relax. Because of Lin Chuan.

Lin Chuan returned to Mingyang's camp next to the road with the victorious army. Hearing that the [-] enemy troops who attacked had turned into charred corpses, Mingyang's hanging heart was finally relieved. It was full of excitement because of the victory.

Barrels of ale were brought out, and the quartermaster also reluctantly parted with the food for these soldiers. Big pieces of pork filled the soldiers' bowls, and the soldiers in the entire camp were surrounded by powerful enemies. , a rare relaxation.

The stove in the military tent was burning very vigorously, and the entire military tent was filled with warmth. Lin Chuan, Ming Yang, and Xue Wen sat around the stove, and on the table next to them were a few dishes of appetizers exuding fragrance. .

Although the soldiers outside the military tent drank and ate meat and enjoyed a rare meal, the three people inside the military tent were not as happy as the soldiers.

As senior generals of the Nanchuan Army, they are not like soldiers who only need to charge forward and kill the enemy. What they need to consider is the overall situation and strategy. Obviously, the current situation is not good for the Nanchuan Army. Although Zhao Feng's troops have been eliminated, Facing hundreds of thousands of dynastic troops pouring in, the situation is still grim. If there is a little carelessness, the Nanchuan Army will be wiped out.

"Mr. Xue, you are welcome to join our Nanchuan Army." Lin Chuan broke the dull atmosphere, raised his glass and said.

Ming Yang also raised his wine glass and said: "Yes, Mr. Xue's arrival has made our Nanchuan army even more powerful. Today, the enemy army was set on fire, which makes people feel very happy. I also respect Mr. Xue."

Xue Wen is also a happy person, he used to hang out with soldiers in the border guards all year round, facing Lin Chuan and Ming Yang's toast, he raised his glass and drank it down, which made Ming Yang and Lin Chuan look at each other with admiration.

After all, Xue Wen did not know much about the Nanchuan Army. Lin Chuan briefly introduced the situation of the Nanchuan Army to Xue Wen. The importance of land to people.

"General, killing the nobles and dividing the land now seems to be able to win the hearts of the people at the bottom, but if you want to overthrow the dynasty, it will be difficult to succeed without the support of the nobles." Although Xue Wen praised the Nanchuan Army's policy of dividing the land, but Some disadvantages are also pointed out.

"With the support of countless people, we can form a powerful army. Without the support of nobles, we can still overthrow the dynasty." Ming Yang disagreed with Xue Wen's words and immediately retorted.

Xue Wen smiled and shook his head and said: "I admit that relying on the people can win the world, but general, not all nobles oppress the people, a large part of them have the good qualities of the nobles, they are willing to do good, and have a kind heart. , and they have received a good education since they were young, if we bring this part over, it will not only reduce our resistance, but will also provide us with various talents and make use of our Nanchuan Army to grow and develop."

Hearing Xue Wen's words, Lin Chuan fell into deep thought. Previously, the Nanchuan Army implemented a one-size-fits-all policy. All nobles, good or bad, ransacked their homes and wiped out their clans. Now I think it is a bit sloppy. This is why the Nanchuan Army can't recruit them. Talents, encountered by the nobles of the dynasty have been expropriating and suppressing.

"Thank you, Mr. Xue, for reminding me. I will definitely advise the commander-in-chief to revise our policy against nobles. We will kill those vicious nobles, win over those kind nobles, and divide and disintegrate the power of the dynasty."

Seeing that Lin Chuan was able to get to this level so quickly, Xue Wen nodded secretly. The Lin family has always produced generals and marshals, but he did not expect that Lin Chuan not only knew how to kill, but also understood the overall situation. Xue Wen was more full of Lin Chuan expected.

The three of them toasted and chatted until late into the night. No one knew what they talked about, but since then, Xue Wen and Ming Yang have followed the still weak Lin Chuan wholeheartedly. No matter how difficult the conditions are, they have never betrayed , and finally became an extremely human minister and became a famous figure in the mainland.
