The Era of Generals

Still thinking about this million army?

As soon as these words came out, even though Chen Ze was calm, his eyes became sharp instantly.

Although it was only for a moment, and he regained his calm in a short while, he was still noticed by Mr. Luo who had been observing him.

"You don't have to be hostile to me."

Sensing the change in Chen Ze's expression, Zongbing Luo suddenly smiled and said, "I finally have the chance to return the words you said to me several times..."

"This matter is actually..."

He shrugged, "It's not hard to guess!"

Chen Ze didn't say a word, just heard Luo Zongbing say again: "At the beginning, I knew that what Lao Zheng said was a run on you, but you promised too readily, which also aroused my curiosity, so I didn't refute it on the spot. .”

"Facts have proved that the indifference you felt when you heard that Zhu Yan's army did not aggressively attack Tel City is enough to tell me that you are not surprised by this."

"Then, did you lead the troops out of the city so decisively just to give old Zheng face?"

Zongbing Luo stared at Chen Ze, and said word by word: "Based on what I've known about you these days, I'm afraid it won't be that simple, right?"

Chen Ze shook his head helplessly, "So the commander-in-chief insists on going with the army, is it because of this curiosity?"

"Yes, not all."

Zongbing Luo nodded and shook his head again, "My curiosity is not limited to this one, but I am full of curiosity about you as a whole."

These words made Chen Ze's heart tighten.

The speaker has no intention of listening and the listener does. He has a secret all over himself, so he naturally doesn't want others to notice it, and the last thing he wants is to attract others' attention.

Fortunately, Zongbing Luo's subsequent words made Chen Ze feel slightly relaxed, because the curiosity in the other party's mouth seemed to have another meaning.

He said: "Since the first time I saw you in the City Lord's Mansion that day, I knew that you were a very ambitious person."

General Luo sighed: "If it is not for the support of ambition, it is hard to imagine that a person who is only a strategist dares to talk in front of many high-ranking generals, and even takes great risks to personally lead the army."

"Don't tell me that the reason for doing this is because of your sincerity to the empire?"

Turning the subject, he teased in a teasing tone.

Chen Ze was silent.

These words came from Zongbing Luo's mouth, which really made him not know how to respond.

But the fact is also true.

Looking at the entire empire, there are so many low-level generals, but if you really want to say that whoever is loyal to the empire, they join the army for the purpose of being loyal to the empire, probably less than one in ten.

Of course, no one will admit this. On the surface, everyone looks like the empire is the most important thing, but in fact...

The sky is falling and there is a high head, and most of the low-priced generals like them have one purpose to climb up-to put their own interests first!

This is understandable. If you want to climb up, you will naturally have to accumulate a lot of military exploits. Making military exploits means doing something that is beneficial to the empire.

Weixin tacitly agrees, but no one is stupid enough to make his thoughts public in public.

Of course, Chen Ze was not stupid. At such a time, it was impossible for him to agree with Luo Zongbing, especially if he knew that the other party had a royal background.

Zongbing Luo seemed to know what he was thinking, he just said this and stopped talking, but continued the previous topic, shaking his head and saying:

"At that time, from what I saw, you revealed incomparable ambitions all over your body, but the strange thing is that after you finished your work, you actually retreated and were willing to make a wedding dress for Zheng Yuanyun. Isn't this contradictory?"

"So I guess that's not what you want."

Zongbing Luo paused for a moment, and a look of disappointment flashed across his eyes, because what he saw on Chen Ze's face was a calm expression, as if everything he said had nothing to do with Chen Ze.

Although calm but no longer silent, Chen Ze said slowly: "Then what is my purpose based on what the commander-in-chief sees?"

Mr. Luo smiled, "I think it's the army of millions, right?"

"No!"

He thought for a while, changed his wording, and said seriously: "It should be a million rogues!"

Chen Ze frowned slightly, but he was relieved.

Without him, Zongbing Luo guessed roughly, but he still didn't guess his real purpose.

The reason why Chen Ze gave up most of his military exploits in Bo'an City was because of the 100,000 elite soldiers at hand.

It can be said that he gained the control of 100,000 elite soldiers with the imperial military exploits that were insignificant to him.

This deal is extremely cost-effective for Chen Ze.

You must know that even if it is a general at the first level, the number of soldiers and horses seconded from the military aircraft is only 50,000.

100,000 people?

If the situation is not urgent, under normal circumstances, the generals at the commanding level cannot command so many soldiers. More importantly, they must be returned to the military aircraft department after they are used up, which cannot be regarded as their own soldiers.

But what about Chen Ze?

With the acquiescence of Mr. Hua, the 100,000 soldiers who will be transferred to Xiyun City in the future will be completely assigned by Chen Ze. This is not as cost-effective as staying in Bo'an City to earn a share of military exploits, and to be promoted to the rank of leader but offended Zheng Yuanyun ?

After this operation, although his own military rank is not high, his actual leadership power is equivalent to the sum of two commander-level generals. What he lacks is just some military rank benefits.

Chen Ze is rich.

First, he copied Gui Jianchou's old lair, and then made a fortune in Xichuan City. For him, raising his hand to raise a million silver is not a matter of blinking.

It was more than enough to feed his few men.

So what is more exciting to Chen Ze than having a private soldier?

Mr. Luo didn't guess this, but it was because of the deep-rooted concepts in his cognition. In other words, he didn't guess boldly enough. He didn't expect that Chen Ze, a low-level general who had just been promoted to the leader of the association, would dare to The idea hit the head of the private soldier.

And the millionaire bandits...

It's not that Chen Ze didn't think about it, but that's something for later.

Right now, he naturally followed the words of Zongbing Luo and said: "Yes, this million-strong army is indeed a great achievement in battle. Compared with it, I really don't want to go head-to-head with City Lord Zheng."

"Master Chief Soldier sees it well. After losing Bo'an City and Tel City successively, the Zhu Yan Empire's million-strong army has nowhere to go."

"Go in, Tel City has been captured and cannot enter."

"Retire, Bo'an City is back in the hands of City Lord Zheng, and there is no way to retreat."

He shrugged, "The current situation of the millions of troops is actually very bad. Of course, the Qingyang Empire wants to fight them, but the Zhuyan Empire will not look good after suffering a big defeat and losing their extremely important main city. More importantly, it is still impossible to meet this force in a short time."

"So the only way out for them right now is, as the Chief Soldier said, the only way to save their lives is to turn the army into rogues."

"It is conceivable that the sudden appearance of over a million rogues within a radius of a hundred miles will have an impact on the surrounding cities, and this is an opportunity!"
