Three Kingdoms: Marry Sun Shangxiang at the beginning

Chapter 633
The shouts of killing gradually died down after more than two hours.

Then the Han army loaded the corpses on a cart and headed towards the big pit dug in the distance.

Sprinkle sulfur and charcoal, and then pour a lot of fire oil, which means to burn it clean to avoid future troubles.

Even if someone pretended to be dead, it would be impossible to survive such a burn.

The Roman soldiers who were wolfing down their breakfast next to them were all frightened.

"Is this going to bury hundreds of thousands of corpses on the battlefield?"

"If we hadn't surrendered just now, we would have been buried there too."

"Fortunately, we have now taken off our armor and weapons, and we have had a hot breakfast."

"It's just...these Han soldiers, really won't kill us?"

Seeing that the massacre in the distance had ended, these Romans who were eating were also watching.

Huang Zhong carried the blood-stained saber and rode back to the top of the mountain.

"Captain."

Pang Tong nodded slightly at him, "General Huang, I will leave it to you to reorganize the Roman prisoner army."

"Here."

Huang Zhong rode his horse to the front, "Soldiers of the Roman Legion."

"Stand up."

"crash"

Many Roman soldiers who heard the voice stood up amidst the shouts of the hidden guards interpreting around them.

"I am Huang Zhong, one of the Five Tiger Generals of the Han Dynasty."

"Admiral of the Five Tigers."

"You're so old."

"Is this the guy who swept hundreds of miles across the Parthian Empire and beheaded several legion commanders?"

"So strong, look at the armor on his body, he didn't even wipe off the blood. How many people did he kill before he could dye the armor red?"

"Quiet."

On the side, Yan Yan shouted loudly with his saber in hand, and for a while, the audience was silent.

"Everyone, for the next six months, you will not be able to wear armor for the time being. You will build a track leading to the Ara Peninsula on the Asia Minor Peninsula, with four directions and eight lanes, carriage lanes on both sides, sidewalks, and drainage ditches beside the lane."

"What, let us build the road?" For a moment, the expressions of the soldiers changed.

"This old general, didn't you agree to let us go home?"

"Yeah, can't we go home after dinner?"

"Besides, we are already members of the Han Empire. Aren't we soldiers of the Han Empire? We can also fight for the Han Empire."

"Yes, as long as we can forgive our family members, we can work for you."

"Let us Roman soldiers be the vanguard. We can help you persuade the cities along the Mediterranean Sea to surrender."

Huang Zhong looked around.

"Now, we are about to attack the Balkans."

"Among you, is there anyone who can contact relatives in the Balkan Peninsula, as long as they are generals guarding the city, guards of a certain town, or a certain village, they can stand up."

"We can carry the message for you."

"You have done meritorious service in persuading surrender, and you can all go home."

"I, my father is the commander of the Constantinople patrol battalion."

"My dad was the mayor of a town in the western Balkans."

"My brother served as the head of the Church Guards in Constantinople."

Not long after, among the fifty or six million Roman soldiers below, several thousand came out of the darkness.

"Okay, you will all be organized into the Roman prisoner army and go out with the army."

"Thank you, General."

Seeing these thousands of people leave, the rest of them panicked.

"Old general, can our family enter the vanguard camp in Rome?"

"Yes, old general, my home is on the west coast."

For a while, many soldiers panicked again.

Huang Zhong lowered his hand, "Everyone, there is no need to fight."

"You are only going to build roads, not to send you to labor."

"It is impossible for us to attack the soldiers and horses in other territories of the Roman Empire. The millions of troops present will go. More than 20 will be left to guard various places and will accompany you to build roads."

"Building roads, building houses for the common people, digging canals, repairing bridges, escorting caravans, these are what our Han soldiers should do."

"You only do it for half a year, and then you can go home."

"During this period, you need to do morning exercises every day, yes, to train our Han army."

"After the three-month recruit period expires, you will finish learning Chinese."

"Afterwards, you will be assigned to each battalion."

"Your captains and generals will also be temporarily transferred by our Han people. If you can prove that you are really capable, then you can also command thousands of troops."

"correct."

Huang Zhong rode his horse and walked a few steps, staring at the crowd, "From now on, you are no longer commanders, regiment commanders, or governors, you are all soldiers of my big man."

"If you don't want to, you can raise it now, then leave and return to your hometown to become a commoner."

For a moment, some soldiers showed a bit of excitement on their faces.

"Old general, how dare you ask your soldiers, how are they treated?" The one who spoke was a captured army commander. As soon as he spoke, there was a sudden silence on the battlefield. Everyone looked at Huang Zhong, waiting for his answer. .

"Soldier?"

"That's the military household of our big man."

"Ordinary soldiers, that is, after you have passed three months of training in the new barracks."

"Every month, one stone of rice grain will be given, and those with families will be given two catties of salt, and those without families will be given one catty of salt."

"For the cavalry, the army horses are given three liters of beans and fifteen catties of fodder every day."

"Every year during festivals, such as the Lantern Festival, His Majesty will reward you with glutinous rice balls, and each family will distribute ten catties of beef."

"Dragon Boat Festival, every family can get a bunch of rice dumplings."

"During the Chinese New Year, each of your families will get a tael of silver."

"The subsidy I mentioned to you before is only five renminbi a month."

"In addition, soldiers and officers who have done meritorious service can get double rewards."

"Being a corporal in the army, your family is eligible to let the government build a Han-style residence for you."

"Sit on Shichang and get ten acres of fertile land."

"Sit on the Baichang, and there are two houses."

……

"In addition, if you make third-class meritorious service, your family can get a meritorious official's house number, ten acres of fertile land, one hundred catties of high-quality rice, one hundred taels of silver, one cow, and four lambs, and the whole town will be notified of their praise."

"If you make two third-class meritorious service or one second-class meritorious service, you will be promoted to a higher level, with a hundred acres of fertile land, a thousand catties of high-quality rice, and a subsidy of 1000 taels of silver."

"Make first-class merit, hehe, if you are still alive, you can go to Xuchang Military Academy to study. After you come out, you can command at least ten thousand people to fight."

"Everyone, can you be moved?"

"hiss……"

In the presence, many soldiers showed joy on their faces.

They were able to serve as soldiers, a small number of them came to protect Rome, and some came because they were kidnapped.

What's more, the family is poor and cannot afford food.

Now that they have the opportunity to live a good life, how could they refuse it.

At dawn, about 8 people left, and the remaining 50 people were incorporated into the Roman prisoner army by Huang Zhong.
