Shen Luoyan also understood that the sooner the army was under Su Chen's control, the more advantageous it would be for this war. If those generals were not executed, they would only be a menace if left alive.

Jing Ni looked at Su Chen in front of her with a cold expression.

Her pressure points were not released.

Even every two hours, Shen Luoyan would re-press her acupoints, so Jing Ni couldn't kill Su Chen even if she wanted to.

"Jingni, I didn't expect Marquis Wuwei, Su Chen, to be so good-looking. How did you two meet? Did Marquis Wuwei, Su Chen, take advantage of you and then abandon you?"

Chapter Seventy-Two: With generals cut in half at the waist, my army is invincible!

Shen Luoyan hadn't expected Su Chen's true appearance to be so delicate and handsome.

When disembarking earlier,

Shen Luoyan almost didn't recognize Su Chen when she saw him. If it weren't for that bastard's tone of voice, Shen Luoyan would never have believed that the handsome man in front of her was Su Chen.

Jing Ni's expression grew even colder upon hearing Shen Luoyan's words.

How did you meet?

What started as chaos and ended up giving up?

She felt extremely angry upon hearing Shen Luoyan's words.

A moment later,

Black-armored cavalry arrived, escorting more than twenty generals.

Some of these generals had bruises on their faces, and some even had their legs broken.

Su Chen looked at these generals,

He stepped forward, looked at the army before him, and shouted loudly using his inner strength.

"My name is Su Chen, Marquis of Wuwei of the Great Sui Dynasty, Su Chen."

"I think all of you 200,000 soldiers understand why I have come to Jiangning City today."

"Yuwen Huaji was assassinated and His Majesty the Emperor decreed that I, Marquis, would succeed Yuwen Huaji in command of the army. From now on, I, Marquis, will be the supreme commander of the entire southern expeditionary army."

"I have just arrived in Jiangning City today, so it is understandable that the generals below do not come to greet me."

440 “But!”

"These generals, upon hearing the war drums signaling the troop's assembly..."

"These generals have not arrived immediately, and are even drinking and making merry in the camp. This is a disrespect to me, and a violation of the prohibition against drinking in the army."

"This time, these generals will not be executed."

"How can I win the hearts of the people?"

Under the high platform,

Upon hearing Su Chen's words, the twenty-odd generals turned pale and cried out.

“Lord Wuwei, we are all generals who command the army. If you kill us, the generals will become chaotic.”

“You cannot kill us without His Majesty the Emperor’s decree.”

“Bold Marquis Wuwei, you will be punished by Prime Minister Yuwen for doing this. We are all under Prime Minister Yuwen’s command.”

“Marquis Wuwei, we are all generals in the army. If you kill us, the army will be thrown into chaos. When the Southern Song emperor’s army arrives, the more than 200,000 troops of the Sui Dynasty will die because of you. You should consider the consequences of eliminating us.”

"You brat, I don't believe you dare to kill us!"

Upon hearing the generals' angry shouts, Su Chen

He looked at the generals with disdain.

All the generals here have pledged allegiance to the Yuwen family. If Su Chen doesn't eliminate these generals today...

after,

With just one word from that old bastard Yuwen Shu, all the generals here would immediately rebel. Su Chen wouldn't leave such a huge hidden danger behind.

"Su Wu, immediately execute all the generals here by cutting them in half at the waist."

"Yes, Lord Marquis!"

On the high platform,

Upon hearing Su Chen's order, the generals here...

They all found it hard to believe.

The Marquis of Wuwei really wanted to kill them, and even intended to use severe punishment to cut them in half at the waist. The generals here were all in a panic.

"No, Marquis Wuwei, please don't kill us! We will obey your orders from now on!"

"Marquis Wuwei, how dare you! How dare you kill our generals here!"

"Spare us, spare us, Marquis Wuwei! We dare not disobey your orders. Please let us go this time."

"Valiant Guards, come quickly to save this general!"

"The Sui border troops have killed Marquis Wuwei!"

Outside Jiangning City,

The 260,000-strong army looked at each other in bewilderment.

None of the soldiers here expected that their newly arrived commander would actually kill all the generals. The soldiers were all terrified by Su Chen's methods.

"Kill! Save our generals!"

"Kill the new commander and save our generals."

"Save the general! Kill the commander!"

"Go! All of you go! Save our generals!"

........

At this time,

Four or five thousand soldiers, armed, charged toward the high platform.

"Out of control."

Su Chen watched as four or five thousand troops were about to attack, and he guessed that they must be the personal guards of the generals here.

Su Chen waved his hand and gave the order expressionlessly.

"The 1,000th Black-Armored Cavalry unit slaughtered the rebellious army."

"kill!"

A thousand black-armored cavalrymen, wielding long spears and mounted on their warhorses, swiftly charged towards the rebellious army.

The Sui Dynasty's elite guards and all the border soldiers were at a loss as to what to do about the rebellion before them.

Help the generals here?

They will all become rebels in the future.

However, the newly arrived commander did not order them to quell the rebellion, and the more than 200,000 troops could only watch helplessly as the soldiers fought each other.

In less than half an hour,

The four or five thousand rebel troops were completely wiped out by the Black Armor Cavalry, while the Black Armor Cavalry only suffered some casualties. The Black Armor Cavalry, composed entirely of warriors, was simply incomparable to these troops.

"kill!"

Looking at the generals being escorted and prepared to be executed by being cut in half at the waist, Su Chen coldly gave the order.

*Pfft pfft pfft...*

One by one, the generals were executed by being cut in half at the waist by the black-armored soldiers.

Su Chen looked at the army and said loudly again.

"All soldiers of the army, listen to my command! The 150,000 Great Sui Valiant Guards are divided into ten infantry legions of ten thousand men each and five cavalry legions of ten thousand men each. The military ranks are: squad leader, centurion, chiliarch, and legion commander."

"The 100,000-strong Sui border army is divided into nine infantry legions of 10,000 men each and one cavalry legion of 10,000 men each. Their ranks are the same as what I just mentioned."

"You can recommend commanders for your respective 10,000-strong legions, as well as commanders for chiliarchs, centurions, and demiarchs. However, I must remind you that in the military, strength is paramount, and the legion commanders you elect will affect your future lives."

"If a sheep leads a pack of wolves, you wolves will become sheep; but if a tiger leads a pack of wolves, each of you wolves will become as powerful as a tiger. Your choice is extremely important."

"I hereby promulgate three military regulations: those who disobey orders shall be executed; those who desert in the face of battle shall be executed; and those who commit rape or plunder shall be executed."

"As my army, your pay will be tripled. As long as you obey my orders, I will lead you to victory in every battle."

"My army is invincible!"

Upon hearing Su Chen's words, the more than 200,000 troops...

The entire army erupted in cheers.

None of the soldiers had expected that they could not only elect their own legion commanders, but their pay had also tripled. All the soldiers looked at Su Chen and shouted in unison.

"Invincible!"
