Chapter 576: Letter of Surrender and Hook

Seeing the blood splattering and the falling heads, Xu Yuan laughed and looked at Chen Bin, thinking that this guy was also a decisive guy. Judging from the look on the Donghu man's face before he died, he was obviously familiar with this Chen Bin. . Dingdian Novel Chapter Updates are the Fastest

Chen Bin bent down, wiped the blood from the knife on the dead Donghu man, held the knife in both hands, walked to Xu Yuan, raised the knife high, and said loudly: "Chen Bin is willing to follow the general, kill the Donghu barbarians, and restore our Liaodong." Earth.”

"Okay!" Xu Yuan nodded and smiled: "I'll give this knife to you. Use it to kill more Dong Hu heads."

"Thank you, General, for the sword." Xu Yuan knelt down on one knee, leaning the tip of the sword on the ground, and said loudly.

Xu Yuan pointed to the nearly two thousand Yan Army prisoners of war down the slope and said: "For the people down here, as many people as you can persuade to follow you, they will become your subordinates. If a hundred people join, you will be the company commander." , if a thousand people join, you will be the battalion commander. If they all join, you will be the group leader. I will give you one hour to finish this matter."

Chen Bin raised his head and said, "General."

"Call me Commander!" Xu Yuan interrupted him.

"Yes, Commander, what will happen to those who are unwilling to join?" he asked.

There was a slight coldness on Xu Yuan's face, "You don't need to ask about this. In short, it is up to them to choose their own path. We, the Eastern Army, never force others."

"General, I understand!" Chen Bin said. "Commander, can you hand over all these Donghu prisoners of war to me?"

"Of course!" Xu Yuan nodded with satisfaction. He was a smart man who knew everything at once. The people around Ma Tou turned around and said to Gongsun Yi and Luo Lei, "Let's go!"

The group of people galloped down the hillside. Immediately, the Zhengdong cavalry surrounding these Yan army prisoners of war also galloped away with the three generals, and stopped when they were far away from them. Xu Yuan gave the order, and some of the cavalry began to be on alert. Most of them sat on the floor, took out their own dry food and drinking water, and started eating.

"Commander, how many people can this guy convince?" Luo Lei and Gongsun Yi sat cross-legged next to Xu Yuan, gnawing on the flesh of dried mutton and drinking cold water.

"All of them!" Xu Yuan choked his neck and swallowed the dried mutton that was not chewed up, Xu Yuan said succinctly.

"All?" Gongsun Yi was a little surprised.

"This boy is smart, decisive, and capable." Xu Yuan smiled lightly and said: "Gongsun Yi.

Luo Lei, you two are scheduled to be the deputy commanders of the first and second divisions. Which one of you wants him? "

Before Luo Lei could react, Gongsun Yi had already raised his hand, "We want him as a division."

Xu Yuan laughed loudly and glanced sideways at Gongsun Yi, "You are a quick talker. I don't think you are greedy for Chen Bin. You are attracted to his two thousand soldiers. I can tell you clearly. Even if Chen Bin comes, his two thousand people must be divided equally. Ni Huazong and Tao Jiawang each get one thousand. Don't try to take it all. This is the manpower obtained by our army's joint operation, not yours. Ni Huazong got it."

Gongsun Yi's intentions were revealed, and he smiled, "If we divide it equally, we will divide it equally. But Chen Bin must belong to our division."

"What about you, Luo Lei? What do you have to say?" Xu Yuan turned to look at Luo Lei, who had just woken up. Luo Lei was regretting that he had been slow to speak and let Gongsun Yi take the lead. At this time, Xu Yuan heard Xu Yuan's surprise. It was originally said that each family would get half, but all the previous annoyances were gone. He smiled and said, "That's very good."

"As long as you agree!" Xu Yuan nodded in agreement solemnly, but he chuckled in his heart. Gongsun Yi is much more cunning than Luo Lei. If Tao Zongwang finds out about this, he will definitely scold Luo Lei. .

Chen Bin is very valuable, especially at this time, this place.

The three of them were chewing the dried mutton, but their eyes turned to the place where the crowd gathered a few miles away. At this time, there, one by one, the Yan Army prisoners of war were lining up in front of Chen Bin, and they didn't know what they were doing.

"What are they doing, swearing allegiance to Chen Bin?" Gongsun Yi asked in confusion.

"Send a certificate!" Xu Yuan laughed.

"A certificate of surrender?" Gongsun Yi and Luo Lei didn't understand this word very well, and they didn't react for a while.

Chen Bin is indeed a neat and tidy person. In less than an hour, he has already arrived at the temporary camp of Xu Yuan and others. Behind him, nearly two thousand Yan troops formed four columns and followed silently. Behind him, these people were originally the standing army of the State of Yan, the elite of the Yan army. When they re-identified themselves as soldiers instead of prisoners of war, some of their inherent qualities naturally returned.

"Is it done?" Xu Yuan asked.

"That's it!" Chen Bin nodded and said: "One thousand eight hundred and ninety-six people are all willing to join the Eastern Conquest Army and conquer the Eastern Hu again. We will avenge our shame. We will not destroy the Eastern Hu and we will never return home!"

Listening to Chen Bin's eloquent words, Xu Yuan raised his eyebrows, "They all volunteered?"

"Voluntary!" Chen Bin said: "They also know that all the five hundred Donghu people in Tengger are dead. If they stay, not only will they not be able to wait until they go back, they will also suffer fierce revenge from the Donghu people. What's more, this time At that time, their hands were stained with the blood of the Donghu people.”

"Aren't you all stained with the blood of the Donghu people on your hands? What does it matter if there are just a few more?" Xu Yuan said with a smile.

"What's the difference? In the past, when the two armies were hostile, it was either you or me. There was nothing to say, whether we were or the Donghu people, but the situation today was different." Chen Bin turned his head and glanced at the slope. "One thousand eight hundred and ninety-six people, each of them was chopped down with a knife."

Gongsun Yi and Luo Lei on the side were both stunned. Dozens of Donghu people were chopped down with nearly two thousand knives. I'm afraid they would have turned into meat paste by now.

"Kill them all?"

"No, let two go!" Chen Bin said.

"Well, you thought it through. There are horses, weapons and armors of the Donghu people that we just seized, but they are not enough for your two thousand people. You pick a group of people and arm them first. We should also retreat. I think the reinforcements of the Donghu people are on the way." Xu Yuan said.

"I understand!" Chen Bin said loudly.

Two hours later, when Xu Yuan set out on his return journey, there were hundreds of horses, dozens of carriages, and two thousand newly-attached soldiers in the team, and among these two thousand newly-attached soldiers, nearly four hundred soldiers were already fully armed.

He came like a gust of wind and fire, but he left slowly. Seeing Xu Yuan's leisurely retreat, Chen Bin couldn't help but wonder, didn't he say that the reinforcements of the Donghu people were about to arrive? Why was he retreating so slowly? Looking at Gongsun Yi and Luo Lei, who were also relaxed, Chen Bin suddenly realized that General Xu might have other plans in mind, and he would not just knock out these five hundred cavalrymen and stop.

Since they were prepared, they naturally didn't need to worry about it. What they had to do now was to raise the morale of the army as soon as possible. Looking at the team that was still a little depressed, Chen Bin couldn't help but feel sad. When they set out from Liaoxi, they were so high-spirited and vigorous! In any case, even if they racked their brains, they had to regain their confidence. These people were the foundation for their future in the East Expedition Army. Chen Bin didn't know that the two thousand people had been divided up. He still believed that after arriving at the East Expedition Army, these people would still be led by him. Commander Xu would naturally not break his promise. If he didn't want to promise, he wouldn't have to tell someone of his status at that time. Since he said it, he would naturally do it.

Army commander, division commander, regiment commander... Chen Bin had no idea what the official positions that came out of the other party's mouth were, but from the information inadvertently revealed in the other party's words, Chen Bin still judged the number of troops led by the army commander. By analogy, he also roughly understood what kind of position he would be equivalent to in the Yan Army system if he became a regiment commander.

It seems that he has been promoted!

One thing Chen Bin didn't expect was that Xu Yuan did promise to give him the position of regiment commander if all these people joined the Eastern Expedition Army, but he didn't say that he would let him lead these two thousand people. The generals who led the Eastern Expedition Army were basically split up, restraining and supervising each other. Everyone knew it well, and scholars like Xu Yuan saw it even more clearly. Under the Eastern Expedition Army, the troops of various forces were split up and integrated together. This was the ruling method of the superiors, and everyone didn't care.

Three days, more than a hundred miles, even with two thousand infantry, this speed is too slow for the army, until the scouts behind rushed up and reported that the Donghu reinforcements had caught up, the marching speed suddenly accelerated.

"More than a thousand Wusu cavalrymen are chasing us!" Xu Yuan smiled at Gongsun Yi, Luo Lei and Chen Bin, "The two guys that Captain Chen sent back must have played a big role."

Chen Bin shook his head, "I let those two go back just to make these people give up, but I didn't think about the impact on the subsequent war. I think it must be in the commander's plan."

Xu Yuan laughed, "There are only more than a thousand reinforcements. If they don't know our details, they will definitely not dare to chase us at will. But knowing that we only have a thousand cavalrymen, plus you guys, the more than a thousand Donghu cavalrymen will definitely chase us for revenge."

"We can fight!" Chen Bin straightened his chest.

Xu Yuan glanced at him with a half-smile, "In this battle, you should just be spectators. If you really want to fight, then you can beat the fallen dog after the battle. Let's go, send a message to the whole army, and advance at full speed!" (To be continued...)
