Inside the general's tent, Alexander Gao and Ethan Shen bathed, changed into clean clothes, and chatted while drinking.
"Now all the soldiers in the army have heard of Shen Lang's name, and they are eager to join the Suiye Army to fight for a better future. What are Shen Lang's plans?"
The foreign soldiers in the army totaled more than a thousand people, and they were all brave warriors selected from the city guards of various military towns. Since the Kaiyuan period, the troops of the four towns of Anxi were no longer mainly composed of Turkic light cavalry as before, but were instead cored by recruited warriors from within the Great Wall. These city guards who used to form the main force of the Anxi Army gradually became supporting roles.
Alexander Gao is now the Grand Protector of Anxi. Naturally, he is aware of the hidden dangers under his rule. One is the retired veterans, and the other is the soldiers from the foreign tribes. If it were up to him, he would also like to do the same as Ethan Shen, absorbing the good families and mixed-blood men from the four towns and adding these soldiers from the foreign tribes to expand the army and give these people a way to advance.
However, Shen Lang can do this kind of thing, but he cannot, because only Shen Lang will not arouse the suspicion of the saint. What's more, Shen Lang is going to reopen Suiye Town. Even if he recruits an Anxi Army, the saint may not think much about it. He will only think that Shen Lang is loyal to the king.
