In the kitchen, there was silence, so quiet that you could even hear everyone breathing.

Mo Hu and the veteran both had mysterious smiles on their faces, and it seemed that they both knew what would happen next.

Many recruits shook their heads collectively. They were either from good families or strong men selected from other military camps.

Fights happen frequently, but as for killing people, they neither have the opportunity nor the courage to do so.

Killing someone is not like drinking water or eating, you can kill them as you please. It takes some courage to do it for the first time.

Moreover, killing a living being who may even beg for mercy does put some psychological pressure on you.

Blood and flesh were flying everywhere, brain matter was splattered, the intestines that were shrunken in the stomach kept flowing out, and the heart and lungs were still contracting when they were dug out alive.

These scenes will bring great shock and pressure to people who see them for the first time.

Now they can slowly adapt to these things, but if they are not careful on the battlefield, they may lose their lives.

Of course, there are definitely people who will have no reaction to this kind of thing, but most people will eventually need time to adapt.

Therefore, it is necessary to let the personal soldiers see blood before going to the battlefield and get used to such situations.

Many recruits shook their heads, only Chen Mo thought for a moment and nodded slowly.

He couldn't hide his past experiences. He had fled all the way here to escape the disaster. Although killing was uncommon for the victims, it was not a strange thing either.

Especially for the disaster victims who fled here, it goes without saying that many of them have killed people, because if they don't kill, they might be killed.

Rather than continuing to conceal it, once someone finds out about my identity and realizes that I lied to them about this, it would make me appear guilty about this matter.

It would be better to admit it now. No one will punish him for it anyway.

It was those people who attacked him first, and he was acting in self-defense.

According to Daqian law, killing in self-defense is not wrong.

Besides, no one will do much to investigate what happened in the disaster area.

On the contrary, if you keep covering it up, there is no guarantee that someone will not think too much about it.

After all, the victims who were able to escape here were not necessarily forced to kill people, they might also kill people on their own initiative.

Seeing him nod, everyone turned their eyes to him.

General Sun was also a little confused. Ever since he discovered that Chen Mo could sense his murderous intent some time ago, he had been a little surprised, but he had not yet investigated him carefully.

Now he took the initiative to admit that he had killed someone. Could it be that he was a bandit who joined the army to escape punishment?

But this shouldn't be the case. If that was the case, why would he admit that he had killed someone?

"When did you kill those people? How many did you kill?" General Sun asked with narrowed eyes.

"I'm not from here. I just came here to escape the disaster a while ago. The people I killed were those who wanted to kill me and steal my food on the way. There were about 17 or 18 of them. I can't remember exactly!"

Chen Mosi spoke slowly and methodically, speaking out what was in his mind.

In fact, he really couldn't remember how many people he had killed, maybe seventeen or eighteen, or maybe more.

He was very hungry every day while fleeing and only thought about eating, so he had no extra energy to remember these trivial things.

This story is posted elsewhere by the author. Help them out by reading the authentic version.

Killing people is indeed difficult for these new recruits who had at least had enough food to eat before.

But for Chen Mo at that time, it was really not worth thinking about.

General Sun was stunned when he heard this. He had seen Chen Mo's hometown before and always thought he was a local.

Chen Mo joined the army and his household registration was naturally moved to the previous military camp.

His hometown before he joined the army clearly stated that he was from Aoki Prefecture. Now it seems that the soldiers who recruited the soldiers just wanted to save trouble and made a one-size-fits-all decision.

This is a normal thing and not worth being too surprised about, but I just never thought about it before.

From this perspective, it is normal for Chen Mo to sense his own murderous aura.

The disaster in Qingzhou was so severe that he was able to escape all the way here. If he had not been sensitive, he would have died on the road.

Mo Hu was stunned and couldn't believe it, and kept staring at Chen Mo.

Killing people was not a difficult task for him. Seventeen or eighteen people were not a lot for him. He had already killed many more people than that.

Even Chen Mo said that he had killed seventeen or eighteen people as easily as drinking water or eating, and it was nothing to him.

Only those new recruits who have never been to the battlefield would be surprised and shocked by this.

For veterans like them, talking about killing is just a daily chore and not worth paying too much attention to. What surprised him was that he really didn't expect that Chen Mo, who looked honest and simple on weekdays, would only think about eating and the food in the kitchen.

Even if he is going out on a day off, after taking a shower he will not go to the pub to drink and will not go to a prostitute or will not go to a gambling den to gamble.

He is always thinking about going to the braised meat stall or the small restaurant, and he just wants to eat more meat all day long. No matter how you look at him, he is an honest guy.

He actually killed seventeen or eighteen people!

I thought it was a harmless kitten, but it turned out to be a fierce tiger that would eat anyone it wanted!

The contrast was too great!

He found it a little hard to accept for a moment.

In fact, he was not the only one who couldn't accept it. Many recruits at the table were also surprised to hear the news.

There were two new recruits sitting next to Chen Mo. They swallowed a little awkwardly and moved away a little without saying a word.

Killing is not a big deal for the war-hardened veterans in the military camp, but these veterans rarely talk about these things on a daily basis.

Many new recruits actually know that veterans must have killed people, and have killed a lot of people.

But Chen Mo was different. They were all new recruits, so they had quite a lot of contact with each other on a daily basis because they were training together.

Even if you don't try to make friends, after more than two months, you will become more or less familiar with each other.

Chen Mo has always given the impression of being simple and honest to many new recruits. He always smiles when communicating with them. No matter how you look at it, he is a very amiable person.

However, it was this person who actually killed seventeen or eighteen people. Looking at his tone and posture, it seemed that this was not a more difficult thing than drinking water and eating.

This really put a big shock on these new recruits.

"Well. In that case, you just need to follow and take a look this time." Sun Shouren remained quite calm and made the decision.

He didn't care much about the fact that Chen Mo was not a local.

Because the personal soldiers who were to be added to the camp later could only be considered as his fellow townsmen at most, and they all came from Xingyuan Prefecture.

In fact, if we really talk about it, the relationship between them and myself is not much different from that between them and Chen Mo.

If he minded this, he would not have expanded the recruitment scope from the beginning.

Moreover, even among the hundreds of veterans, there were some who were not of the same ethnic group or even from the same hometown as him.

Whether this person can be used ultimately depends on yourself.

"I understand." Chen Mo nodded in agreement.

Many personal soldiers lined up and trotted out of the camp.

As the garrison commander of a prefecture, Sun Shouren could only mobilize a maximum of 500 men out of the camp without any transfer orders.

They cannot wear iron armor and can only carry fifty bows at most.

As for leather armor or ordinary weapons such as swords and spear, there are not many restrictions.

But these are rules, and as long as he is not discovered, he has not violated the law.

Of course, General Sun would not transfer a large number of elite troops away from the camp for no reason, because a sudden attack would not only cost money, but would also waste training.

Many personal soldiers rushed all the way to a mass grave several miles away from the military camp. Dozens of death row prisoners from various counties had already been escorted there.

Even the dumbest of the many personal soldiers could guess what was going to happen next, and most of them had an expression of nervousness that was difficult to conceal on their faces.

However, Chen Mo, Mo Hu and a few veteran soldiers looked indifferent and did not care at all.

"Let's get started." General Sun gave the order, and steel knives were distributed to his many personal soldiers one after another.

Many prisoners were beheaded one by one, and countless blood and flesh flew everywhere.

Many recruits showed different reactions, some were nauseous and nervous, some were excited and fearful, but only a few looked calm.

Chen Mo was not involved in this. He had killed many people before, and there was no need to waste another death row prisoner now.

After training his personal soldiers to be brave, Sun Shouren took them away. As for the corpses, someone would take care of them.

The following days continued as usual. Chen Mo trained in the military camp every day, and in the blink of an eye, another month passed.
