Hicks bowed his head and said: "Brother Yu Nan's observation is meticulous, the truth is true, at the beginning of the rebels stationed here, they sent people to distribute recruitment orders in various places, as long as the countrymen who oppose the king, they can come here to eat food and join the army.

Krabatel gently pushed down the frame of the mirror and said in a deep voice: "In this way, the cost of food is huge, although the number of rebels seems to be huge, but it is inevitable that the good and the bad are uneven, affecting the combat strength, if you really engage the regular army, I am afraid that most of the defeats will be lost."

Yu Nan said in a deep voice: "Hey, put aside the combat power first, the greater significance of this move is to buy people's hearts, just imagine the people who lack food and clothing everywhere, what will they think when they hear that the rebels are so benevolent?"

Evil things such as slaughtering villages and destroying towns, and planting blame afterwards, then this person's heart must be completely reversed..."

In another life, Yu Nan read a lot of history books, and subconsciously substituted himself into some peasant uprisings and whispered: "With people's hearts, they will be more able to coerce the people, if the leader of the rebel army is really a careerist."

It is completely possible to use these rabble as cannon fodder, as long as the descendants are the elite.

"Shh," Hicks' face changed greatly when he heard this, and he hurriedly made a silent gesture before whispering: "Brother Yu Nan is cautious, this is the base camp of the rebels, and such a discussion will provoke death!"

Yu Nan smiled and glanced at Krabatel, neither of them mentioning this stubble.

Jessica and Harvey looked at them in amazement, with a look of disbelief, and Ah Jin still stood beside Yu Nan with a nonchalant expression. Charlie was in the back caring for the wounded Saba, but he didn't hear this.

While they were talking, one of the guards came over to report that the arrangements had been made and that they could enter the city.

Hicks led Yu Nan and a few people over, and the leader of the city gate recognized him and greeted him cordially, and Hicks shook hands with the man for a long time before letting go.

Yunan noticed that Hicks' hand in his wide sleeve trembled twice, as if he was stuffing something into the other.

The leader quietly slipped his hand into his pocket and took a piece of paper that Hicks had taken out.

A few guards were arranged to randomly check a few sacks, and when they saw the black barrel, the leader showed joy and sent people to rush to the city to report.

The leader pulled Hicks aside and pointed at the long caravan, who nodded and whispered.

After a while, the soldier who reported the news came back panting, and shouted to the leader: "Captain, the leader tells the caravan to enter the city quickly." With

a wave of the leader's hand, several soldiers pushed all the refugees aside, and the mighty caravan began to enter the city, and Yunan and several people were mixed in it, and no one came to interrogate them from beginning to end.

Catrea is a well-known oasis city with a lot of vegetation.

Completely different from what I imagined, the city was quite chaotic, and according to Hicks, it was only an outer city.

Rows of trees were planted on both sides of the streets of the outer city, and many soldiers-like people, sitting or lying lazily in groups of three or five, gathered under the trees to smoke and chat, and when they saw the caravan, they all saluted and looked back and forth.

The houses along the street were all requisitioned, and the shops were no exception, and the rebel soldiers who came in and out were all armed with live ammunition, unlike the guards guarding the city gates, most of them were thin and weak, and there was no military appearance between the movements, obviously new to the industry.

But these people were all smiling, and they were in a good mood, and Yu Nan took a closer look, only to realize that it was abnormal, the doors of several shops were in tatters, and the glass windows were also broken.

There was a mess of things scattered all over the door, and there were dried black blood stains in many places.

A few soldiers with a bulging arms in their arms, with greedy expressions, had just come out of a house, and when they saw the young and beautiful Jessica, their eyes immediately lit up, whistled, and began to talk.

Jessica glared angrily, Hicks knew that Jessica was not an ordinary person, for fear of conflict, so he hurriedly came over to advise, fortunately, Yunan persuaded Jessica, and Harvey and the others were also gloomy, obviously not expecting the rebels to look like this.

The caravan continued to move forward, and Hicks leaned over to Yu Nan and explained in a low voice: "Oh, Brother Yu Nan, don't mind, these guys must have just joined the new army, and the old rebel battalion is well-disciplined and loves the people like children."

"Old battalion, are there any old rebels?" Harvey had heard of this kind of calligraphy for the first time.

Hicks said: "The old camp is the name of the outside world, in fact, it is the group of people who first revolted, the core force of the rebels, and the descendant of the leader 'Kosha'.

Not only is the combat effectiveness the strongest, but the military regulations are also the strictest, and the place we are going to now is the camp of the old battalion.

Krabatel interjected: "I see that this 'new army' is a mixed bag, some of them are obviously not good people, and you can see from the eyes that there are many lives on their hands.

Hicks lowered his voice, "That's right, in order to expand the strength of the rebels, the conditions are very lenient, whether it is a farmer, a scoundrel, or even a sand bandit bully, as long as they can take up arms, they can join, and it is only recently that the review has been strengthened."

Yu Nan said in a deep voice: "War and killing have always been the best catalysts for unleashing human beastliness.

Jessica frowned and asked, "What do you mean?" "

Hey, in times of peace, most people have something to do, food and clothing, but whenever there is violent social turmoil, someone will rise up, maybe the original intention is good."

But human desires are endless, especially in a state of anarchy, burning, killing and looting are indispensable," Yu Nan's voice was very low, and he did not say it all.

"That's right, even if the original honest peasants have killed people and looted their property, they have experienced the pleasure of getting something for nothing and controlling the life and death of others.

The desires of the heart will inevitably give birth to evil thoughts and incarnate into bloodthirsty demons.

As they walked, they listened, and their eyes were slightly different when they looked at the rebels.

On the side of the road, a young man, with a childish face, looked to be sixteen or seventeen years old, lean, wearing ill-fitting clothes, with an extraordinary texture but stained with blood, was showing off loudly to a group of 'new troops'.

"You don't know, the grain shop in the east of the city, there is a mountain of grain in it, and the money is terrifying, we washed it there last month, and the boss dared to resist.

Lao Tzu killed him with a knife, look, this dress is his, but what about silk, Lao Tzu used to farm the land, how could he have this outfit?"

A new middle-aged man next to him said enviously: "Duosuo, this robe is borrowed from me to wear, I have never tried silk clothes in my life." The

young man named Doso tilted his head and said disdainfully: "Guise, you are pursuing this? Since we have joined the rebel army, we are not farmers, as long as we are brave enough to dare to kill people with a knife."

In the past, those high-ranking nobles had to kneel and beg for mercy, and if they wanted something, they just grabbed it. "
