Chapter 524: Use the Barbarians to Control the Barbarians, and Use the Bandits to Control the Bandits

Tianwu Hall, the political core of the Tianwu Dynasty in the past, was supposed to be the place where the Minister of Civil and Military Affairs was responsible for disputes and decisions, but it was no longer the same as it used to be.

At this time, the civil war in the Tianwu Temple was lined up with the criminal army led by Zhang Han, a group of generals and civil servants, and even people from the Southern Region who had established meritorious deeds in several consecutive wars of destroying the country.

There were hundreds of people in total.

However, even if there were hundreds of people, at this time, the Tianwu Hall was still silent, the needles could be heard, and the atmosphere seemed a little depressing.

But soon, the news that everyone was waiting for finally came.

"Paper, General Zhang Han, the battle casualty report has been compiled!"

"According to the statistics of the casualty report of the battle, when attacking the capital of Tianwu."

"Our army has invested a total of two battalions, the dead soldier's battalion and the forward battalion, plus 200,000 prisoners and soldiers, a total of 3.58 million troops."

"After the overall victory of the battle, the total casualties of our army are about 1.2 million!"

"Among them, there were about 800,000 casualties in the death camp, and about 400,000 casualties in the forward battalion. How about the pensions, please let General Zhang Han decide."

I saw a number of Qin soldiers holding a battle report jade silk. After trotting in, they said directly to Zhang Han, bowed their hands and handed the battle report, and directly reported the casualties of the battle.

"hiss!"

Hearing such a tragic casualty situation, not only some strong men in the southern region, but even some Qin army generals could not help but take a deep breath.

You must know that this is not 1.2 million pigs, but a full 1.2 million casualties. This is already the number of twelve full legions of the empire.

Thinking of this, many Qin army generals couldn't help but feel very fortunate.

Fortunately, His Majesty the Emperor gave the criminal prisoners the right to act cheaply and to expand the army freely, so that the criminal prisoners have the power to form cannon fodder troops at will.

Otherwise, even if the prisoners' combat power completely suppressed the cannon fodder troops, there would inevitably be huge casualties.

Thinking of this, many people could not help but secretly admire the wise decision of His Majesty the Emperor.

It is expected that the enemy will come first, just in case, the cannon fodder is charged, and the army is harvesting. Thinking of this is enough to prove that His Majesty the Emperor has made a lot of achievements not only in politics, but also in military affairs.

...

"Boom...boom...boom..."

Hearing such a huge casualty, Zhang Han also fell silent and tapped the table three times in a row.

After pondering for a while, he just said: "The general order is passed, and all the soldiers who died in battle will receive 250 taels of silver and 2,000 catties of food!"

"All disabled and non-recoverable soldiers will receive 200 taels of silver and 1,500 catties of food!"

"And if there are brothers and sons in the family who want to join the army, they can directly be the captain of fifty or the centurion!"

"Let's do it for now. The detailed regulations will be drawn up in person, and will be implemented 100%."

"If there are any false elements in the implementation process, I, Zhang Han, are willing to give up the position of the prisoner's army commander, return to the empire, and no longer participate in all expeditions related to Xuantian Continent."

After thinking for a long time, Zhang Han decided to give generous pensions to these cannon fodder troops who died in battle.

In addition to the arrangement of the family members of the descendants of the soldiers, the content of such pensions is not much different from that of the regular soldiers of the Qin Army.

After all, along the way, the two big battalions that were completely relied on to fight had no rules and only knew how to rush and fight hard.

However, the two battalions of the army took the lead, fought bravely to kill the enemy, and were not afraid of death. Even Zhang Han felt moved and admired when he saw it.

Moreover, the achievements of the two major camps along the way are also seen in his eyes and recorded in his heart.

Although Zhang Han had previously positioned the two battalions as only cannon fodder troops, but after today's battle, Zhang Han changed his old thinking and had a new idea.

That is, cancel the original cannon fodder positioning of the two battalions and give them a new positioning.

- Criminal Army Reserve!

In Zhang Han's view, not only the criminal army, but the entire empire's army also needs to be replenished with fresh blood with this characteristic.

Of course, how to select and screen out before this, and then protect the Qin army's combat strength and loyalty is also an important homework.

...

"I'm waiting to thank General Zhang Han!"

Seeing that Zhang Han was willing to give compensation to the dead and wounded soldiers in the Dead Warriors Camp and the Qianfeng Camp.

Many people from the southern region who chose to surrender to the Qin army could not help but feel a burst of tears in their eyes, and a feeling of death for a confidant was born.

It's no wonder they are like this, after all, they also knew their position before.

That is the cannon fodder used to consume the enemy's living strength.

What is cannon fodder?

Consume it at will, and those whose lives are not worth mentioning are cannon fodder!

Now, after Zhang Han, a general with a strong personality and charm, made the decision to spend a lot of money on pensions, he pushed Zhang Han's prestige in the army to the top.

In fact, no matter whether Zhang Han is false or false, the important thing is that if Zhang Han chooses to do it, then he will gain the military heart.

At this point, even many people from the Southern Region who had surrendered after seeing Zhang Han do this.

He was also convinced of Zhang Hand's heart and made up his mind to follow Zhang Hand.

Because they seem to see Zhang Han's attitude and hope for the future from Zhang Han's decision-making...

"I'm waiting to thank General Zhang Han!"

"I'm waiting to thank General Zhang Han!"

"I'm waiting to thank General Zhang Han!"

After one person, dozens of strong men from various sects, schools, and families in the southern region knelt down on one knee and said to Zhang Han. Among them, there were even several giant thieves who had deterred countless business roads and rivers in the past. !

After all, among the many people who died in battle, there were also members of their sects and families in the past.

There are even blood relatives, and they can be treated well after the death of the war. How can they not be moved?

Looking at these dozens of people in the southern region who were unconvinced in the past, and who could only use force to force the other party to carry out the order, they must have chosen to make this great gift to General Zhang Han at this moment.

Some Qin army generals could not help but feel excited: "General Zhang Han, God!"

...

Seeing so many Southern Region warriors expressing such a position, Rao Yi Zhang Han, a general who is extremely good at figuring out people's hearts, also sighed abnormally, his eyes were dazed, and he returned to what Ying Ji said to himself and Huangfu Song before the expedition.

"Zhang Han, Huangfu Song, you are all generals in the army, the chief generals of the A-type legions, and the pillars of the empire exist."

"You should know that the empire has already started the war of the heavens, but the population of the empire is extremely thin, and the world level is too low to produce a considerable number of strong people to supplement."

"Even with the help of the Tongtian Tower, Yuanshui can't quench the thirst of the near. It takes a lot of time and resources to cultivate the strong."

"Therefore, before the function of the Tower of Babel has not been completely unblocked and the local world has not been promoted, you must learn a truth during the battle."

"That is to use the barbarians to control the barbarians and the bandits to control the bandits, but there are also risks. If you are not careful, you may be bitten back."

"The extent of it, you still need to wait for the two of you to grasp it yourself."

"After all, the heavens are too big, and the worlds are too vast."

"Only relying on the local talents and army of the empire, the early stage is OK, once it reaches the middle and late stages, it will be unsustainable!"

"So, with regard to preparations in this regard, you must hurry up."

Recalling what His Majesty the Emperor said to the two of them back then, Zhang Han felt a lot of sighs in his heart.

Therefore, Zhang Han's seemingly self-inflicted behavior is actually implementing Ying Ji's instructions.
