Chapter 762 Recruiting! ?
Emperor Dajing felt relieved at this time.
Thinking of the power of the catapult, Emperor Dajing felt that this battle should be a safe bet!
Eunuch Zhang also felt relieved.
But at this moment, Cai Jing suddenly spoke.
"Your Majesty, I'm afraid that having only the trebuchet is not safe. I have another suggestion!"
"Hmm? What suggestions?" Emperor Dajing was slightly stunned.
But Eunuch Zhang felt a bad feeling in his heart!
Under the gaze of Emperor Dajing and Eunuch Zhang, Cai Jing said two words with a smile on his face: "Conscription!"
"What!?"
When Eunuch Zhang heard what Cai Jing said, his face instantly turned ugly!
conscription!?
How many soldiers can they recruit in Dajing?
After years of war, only one in ten men in Dajing are left!
Otherwise, there wouldn't be a situation where a man marries several women!
Now, Cai Jing once again suggested conscription. Wouldn't that be a death sentence for Dajing? ?
"Your Majesty, you must not!"
Eunuch Zhang said hurriedly: "Your Majesty, Dajing no longer has that many men who can go to the battlefield!"
"If we recruit soldiers again, I'm afraid... the people will suffer!"
"This……"
Emperor Dajing was originally somewhat tempted.
But now, after hearing what Eunuch Zhang said, he hesitated again.
Has Dajing reached this point?!
If this is the case, then conscription is indeed impossible.
But who would have thought that Cai Jing suddenly said, "Master Zhang, the situation in Dajing should not have reached the point you said, right?"
"The Eighth Sage King can secretly train 70,000 troops in the three counties of Jiangnan!"
"And Dajing, in addition to the three counties in the south of the Yangtze River, has ten more counties!"
"It shouldn't be difficult to raise 200,000 soldiers from these ten counties, right?!"
"As long as these 200,000 soldiers and 50 catapults go to support General Chu, the crisis on General Chu's side can be resolved!"
……
"you……!?"
Eunuch Zhang gritted his teeth in anger!
What Cai Jing said makes sense!
Dajing can still squeeze out another 200,000 troops!
However, if these 200,000 people were to be squeezed out, the situation in Dajing would probably become even more difficult!
"I'm afraid it's too late to recruit soldiers now, right?"
Emperor Dajing frowned slightly.
Obviously, he was already a little moved!
"Your Majesty, there's still time!"
"As long as they fight a few battles on the battlefield, they will definitely be able to adapt!"
"Even if they are not elite soldiers, they can still do their part!"
Cai Jing said hurriedly.
He really wants to recruit soldiers!
Because once Dajing recruits soldiers, he will have the opportunity to make money!
When recruiting soldiers, there must be some people who don't want to go to the battlefield.
If you don't want to go to the battlefield, you have to pay!
By then, wouldn’t Cai Jing make a lot of money?
"Your Majesty! You must not do this!"
"The people need to rest and recuperate, we can't exterminate them!"
Eunuch Zhang hurriedly tried to dissuade him and at the same time glared at Cai Jing fiercely!
This bastard, I should have killed him earlier!
But Cai Jing didn't care at all about Eunuch Zhang's vicious look!
"Forget it, I'll think about this matter again. Lord Zhang, you go and transport the catapult first!"
"Your humble servant... obeys your order!"
Eunuch Zhang left unwillingly.
Eunuch Zhang knew that Emperor Dajing did not directly refuse, which meant that... Emperor Dajing was still moved!
And Emperor Dajing asked him to leave, but did not let Cai Jing leave...
This also explains some problems!
……
"Your Majesty, do you need me to arrange this matter?"
When Cai Jing saw that Emperor Dajing asked Eunuch Zhang to leave, he looked at Emperor Dajing with excitement!
He felt that Emperor Dajing must want him to be in charge of recruiting soldiers!
But the Emperor of Dajing frowned and said, "Lord Cai, you misunderstood. I didn't mean that. You can leave too!"
"Um!?"
When Cai Jing heard what Emperor Dajing said, he was stunned!
Emperor Dajing, let him go too! ?
This... isn't this a bit too bullying?!
This...this...shouldn't he be allowed to do this?!
Although Cai Jing was unwilling, he still left.
"Hey, Mr. Jiang, why haven't you come back yet?"
"I...can't live without you!"
Emperor Dajing missed Jiang Chen very much at this time.
In the eyes of Emperor Dajing, if Jiang Chen were here, he would definitely find a way!
But unfortunately, Jiang Chen is not here!
"Someone come! Go and get Luo Ye for me!"
"As you wish~"
After hearing what Emperor Dajing said, the young eunuch left respectfully.
Now that Jiang Chen is not here, we still have to ask the generals whether the recruits are capable of fighting!
At this time, there was only one general in the capital who could catch the eye of Emperor Dajing, and that was... Luo Ye.
But at this time, Luo Ye was with the people of Dakang.
"Has the war started yet?"
"So fast!?"
Luo Ye was shocked when he heard the news that Dajing and Dakang had gone to war!
"Yes, the war has begun!"
"Now, His Majesty has ordered us to disrupt Dajing's baggage supply at all costs!"
"If we do this well and Dajing is defeated, then we will have accomplished a great feat!"
The people of Dakang said excitedly.
……
"This……"
Luo Ye was a little hesitant.
Although he had already defected to Dakang.
But it was still difficult for him to disrupt the baggage and cause Dajing's failure, and watch the death of Dajing's soldiers!
"Why? Minister Luo can't bear it?"
"Aren't you loyal to our Dakang!?"
When the people of Dakang saw Luo Ye hesitate, their eyes changed instantly!
"I...I am naturally loyal to Dakang."
"It's just... I'm a little worried and don't know what to do..."
Luo Ye forced a smile.
"Don't worry, Minister Luo, I will help you!"
The people of Dakang laughed coldly.
Since Luo Ye has already boarded the pirate ship, he will not let Luo Ye get off again!
And at this moment, someone knocked on Luo Ye's door!
"who?"
Luo Ye asked in panic.
Could it be that their affairs were discovered by the Golden Dragon Guards?
"Minister Luo, His Majesty has ordered you to enter the palace to meet him!" the person outside the door said respectfully.
"Enter the palace to see the emperor!?"
Luo Ye's eyes changed!
What did Emperor Dajing want him to do at this time?!
Did you discover something?!
"I...what should I do?"
Luo Ye looked at the man from Dakang nervously!
"Don't panic, Emperor Dajing shouldn't have noticed anything wrong, otherwise it would be the Golden Dragon Guards who came!"
The man from Dakang said coldly.
Luo Ye also breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this.
This makes sense.
Is he overly nervous?
Luo Ye tidied himself up and followed the young eunuch into the palace and came to the imperial study.
After arriving at the imperial study, Luo Ye bowed respectfully and said, "Your Majesty, I pay my respects to you!"
"Well, Lord Luo, there's no need to be so polite. I called you here today because I have something to ask you!"
