Chapter 258: The Boss's Choice
According to the law of Daxing, once a person who leaves the barracks without permission is caught, he can be punished as a deserter, which is a capital crime. Although there were generals in the old department of the Northwest Army, most of them were veterans, and they knew the military rules and discipline in their hearts, and no one wanted to commit a capital crime, let alone take the name of a deserter, so no matter how much they thought about the northwest, no one proposed to leave.
But today, something happened to the imperial court, and the military advisor sent a message, and they can go back to the northwest.
The generals looked at each other with different eyes, but no one said anything.
"The governor is in danger, it is better to send troops sooner rather than later, you only have one cup of tea, if you don't leave, then you will be dispatched to Beijing with the army!" The war is together, there must be no resentment in life and death, and those who change their minds in battle will be punished according to the rebels, and they will not be spared! Han Qichu turned around, his green sleeves flicked, his clothes were weak, and his eyes were sharp. At first glance, this gaze actually had the potential to rush straight to the top of the mountain, and its sharpness reminded people of the old incident when he sent four men to kill 800 horse bandits in Shangyu Village in the northwest, and he couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart.
The generals were silent for a while, and then someone spoke.
"There is a law to follow if you are guilty or not, and the words of the military advisor are like private releases, how do we know if the court will investigate it afterwards?" The first to speak was Captain Nadu.
Han Qichu said: "The chaos in the imperial court is imminent, and it is difficult for the saint to protect himself, how can he have the strength to pursue this matter?" The generals are relieved to leave! ”
"Good! Let's go! The generals around him were still exchanging glances, and the lieutenant took the lead in removing his armor, ignoring the angry expressions of the generals around him, and turned around and left, and when he walked to the door of the military tent, he turned around and asked, "Who else wants to go with me?" ”
After a moment of silence, a general began to remove his helmet, he didn't look up, took off his armor and folded it carefully, held it solemnly on the ground with both hands, and said when he got up: "I admire the governor, but I still have an old lady in the northwest, and I don't want to die in the capital or die on the river." If I die in the northwest, my mother may still be able to see my bones, even if I die outside the pass, my mother also knows that I died in the battle to kill the Hu people, and knows that I sacrificed my life for the country...... It's better than me dying on the river, the bones are hard to find, and it's my own compatriots who are killed! ”
Liu Heizi and the others closed their eyes, their anger gradually subsided, and only a sigh remained.
This cannot be said wrongly, it can only be said that everyone has their own ambitions, and they will cherish it in the future!
The sound of unarmouring gradually came from the tent, and the generals folded their armor one by one and placed it on the ground, and no one looked up as they retreated to the door of the tent. There are good sons and daughters in the northwest, this is the only shameful thing they have ever done in their lives, but helplessly, even if they die guilty, they still miss the land in the northwest, and miss their wives and children.
There were more than a dozen people standing at the door of the military tent, all of them were generals at the level of the captain, and when no one took off their armor, the captain who took the lead in leaving looked at the others and asked, "The marquis are not leaving?" ”
Among the four route army marquis in the naval division - Zhang Tong, Hou Tian, Lao Xiong, and Mo Hai, three of them were old troops of the Northwest Army, but none of the three took off their armor.
Hou Tian smiled, changed his ruffian attitude, and looked melancholy, "Brothers, let's go, Lao Tzu has no father and no mother, and playing a child is a gangster, and being able to wear this general's robe is a great favor from the general, but Lao Tzu owes that kid...... I owe the governor a life, and I don't want to pay it back. As for where he died, Lao Tzu didn't care, anyway, he didn't have a small family, and his brothers helped collect the corpses everywhere. ”
The lieutenant had nothing to say, so he asked Mo Hai: "The military marquis is not leaving?" My sister-in-law added a big fat boy to you the year before last, and you haven't even been back to see it. ”
Mo Hai frowned, looked at Lao Xiong and Lu Jingshan, and asked, "What about you?" ”
Lao Xiong bowed his head and said: "I won't leave, it was I who went to Jiangnan with General Lu to recruit soldiers, and at that time the governor was a new soldier, and I was a Mo Chang." I told the governor that the officers and men of the Northwest Army were like brothers, and my brothers were in trouble, so I couldn't leave. ”
"This is the Jiangbei Naval Division, not the Northwest Army!" The lieutenant who was the first to leave was very excited, "Isn't Xiong Junhou Mo confused?" If the governor is in trouble, isn't the general there? The governor is the queen, and the saint is a family, but the father of the general is the prime minister of the dynasty, the saint and the Yuan family are incompatible, today you have to fight to the death, the military marquis is worried that the governor is in danger, isn't he worried that the general is in danger? ”
"The general builds border defenses and guards the country, and his military achievements are great, and he is loyal and pure, and the saint will not embarrass the general." The old bear turned his face away and said in a low voice.
The lieutenant sneered and was aggressive, "The military marquis believes in the saint, how do you know that the saint will not embarrass the general?" ”
"I'm the Governor of Sindu! The people who are looked down on by the governor can't be wrong! ”
"What if it's wrong?"
"I'll trade my life! Success? The old bear clenched his fists and raised his head, staring at the lieutenant tightly, his voice was hoarse, and his eyes were blood-red, "The governor is in danger, and the general is also in danger, which one do you say can watch him die?" The general is strong in martial arts, and when he entered the city, he had 5,000 elite horsemen to escort him, although the governor was also good, but she didn't understand the internal force, and when she left, she only took Captain Yue with her, what was wrong with me saving the governor first?! If the saint wants to kill the general, I will exchange my life for the first one, and I have no other skills, so I will be tall and strong, and the swords, guns, swords, and halberds will only greet me, and I will stand in front of the general when I die! ”
The old bear clenched his fists tightly, his green tendons burst out, and his expression was hideous. The lieutenant looked at him, and was speechless for a while, so he had to look at Lu Jingshan.
Lao Xiong is the Mo Chang of the twilight recruit period, and he has lived and died with her in Shangyu Village, and the affection is naturally deeper, but Lu Jingshan and Mo Hai have been thinking about the northwest, which is something that everyone knows.
"I'll stay." Unexpectedly, Lu Jingshan wanted to stay, "Among the brothers, I have been following the general for a long time, and I attacked Letan that year, and I just became the commander of Mo, and a hundred soldiers entered the Tamar Desert and came out alive...... I'm the only one. Those soldiers were the soldiers I brought for the first time, and the bones were buried in the desert, and only the clothes were sent home, I thought there were still twenty taels of pension silver, but I didn't expect all the dog officials to be greedy! The military advisor is right, this kindness has to be repaid, the more than 100 soldiers are gone, and I have to repay them for me! ”
Lu Jingshan sighed and asked Mo Hai: "What about you?" ”
Mo Hai bowed his head and was silent, very unspeakable.
Seeing this, Lu Jingshan sighed again and said, "These soldiers belong to your highest military rank, and if you take them with you on the road, we can rest assured." Go back, you still have a wife and children at home, we are fellow villagers, and my father and mother will take care of you more. ”
Mo Hai raised his head, didn't dare to look at Zhang and others, only looked at Lu Jingshan, and nodded solemnly after being silent for a moment, "I know where the money you saved is collected, and I will bring it back to you later, and Uncle Lu and Aunt Lu will be my father and mother in the future!" ”
"Thank you brother."
"Precious!"
Mo Hai hugged his fists and said goodbye, and then took off his armor, the voice of the armor placed on the ground was sonorous and heavy, Mo Hai retreated to the front of the tent before looking at Han Qichu, hugged his fists and said: "Military advisor, I'm sorry!" ”
Han Qichu shook his head, waved his sleeves, and then sighed, and Mo Hai withdrew from the Chinese army's tent with more than a dozen unarmored captains. The generals lowered their heads, no one looked at them, and no one said anything else, because everyone's hearts were like mirrors, and Mo Hai and the others retreated, not the curtain of the Chinese army's big tent in front of them, nor the thousands of mountains and rivers, but the choice of political opinions of the commander.
This retreat, I am afraid that it will be difficult to see each other in the future, and the day of goodbye may be the time when life and death fight, but there are too many kindnesses in this world to remember, and it is difficult to choose, so I have to fight but the flesh and blood to protect each other with my life, and all I want is that the man is worthy of his heart in the world.
The 50,000 sailors in Jiangbei are all Jiangnan children, only among the generals are the old department of the Northwest Army, Mo Hai and others did not take a single soldier when they left, only the war horse was brought out by them from the Northwest Army, so more than a dozen generals went back to the camp tent to pack up their clothes and coil their clothes, and then rode out of the barracks.
Seeing that some generals were leaving, the sailors suddenly blew up the camp, and the Mo commanders of the Beida Battalion, where Mo Hai was originally located, gathered together and rushed to the big tent of the Chinese army, wanting to ask what happened, but halfway to the road, he suddenly heard the sound of drums, and the war drums sounded like spring thunder, coming from the direction of the battlefield!
All the armies looked at the central battlefield in unison - the troops were ordered!
In the big tent of the Chinese army, Han Qichu stood next to the military case, looked at the generals with solemn expressions, listened to the sound of war drums, and said: "The people left today, no matter where they come from in the future, are all soldiers of my Jiangbei Naval Division, and they will not give up when they live and die together!" Whoever turns his back on it will be dealt with by military law! ”
The generals knelt on the ground and clenched their fists, and said in unison: "Let the military division dispatch!" ”
Liu Heizi said: "Military advisor, how can we save the governor?" You just said that Yuan Xiang is guarding us, there is a cavalry battalion in front of us, and there is a Northwest Army in the back, so we want to go to Shengjing City, can we get out? ”
"Then kill it! The camp of the Northwest Army is twenty or thirty miles away from us, and we only need to kill the grandsons of the Xiaocai Battalion before the Northwest Army arrives and kill them in the city! A lieutenant said.
"How can it be that easy? Don't look at the cavalry battalion and lose to us, but that's because the military advisor's strategy is good, and the court won't let us fight to the death, to put it bluntly, I didn't move the real character at all before! This time we want to come to the real thing, we must pass by the cavalry camp on the road, and encounter cavalry on the official road, how can we win? Tang Liang said.
"That's right! The advantage of the sailor is in the water battle, fighting on land, we can't do the cavalry, even if we are lucky to get to the outside of Shengjing City, the problem is just that we have just come. According to the speculation of the military division, there will be a battle in Shengjing City today, so there is a chance that the city gate will be closed, and we will be able to break through the gate of the imperial city with our 50,000 horses? I'm afraid that as soon as we knocked on the city gate, the elite cavalry of the Northwest Army arrived behind. At that time, there will be ten thousand arrows in front and iron horses in the back, and we will really have to wait for death. "Wuya Aji Jiaoerlang is local.
Zhang Tong glanced at the three of them, nodded and said, "Yes, I have grown a lot." ”
The words were said to the three of them, but Zhang Tong deliberately glanced at Wu Ya Aji, and his eyes were implicitly scrutinizing. At the beginning, on the night when the governor returned to the camp, it happened that Wuya Aji was pouring swill, and he was knocked unconscious in the forest behind the West Battalion, and later the Governor saw that he had good qualifications and let him enter the special training camp, and then this kid was promoted all the way to the governor's personal guard and the captain of the first battalion of the West Battalion. At first, he thought that Wuya Aji was just an ordinary alien boy, but later he realized that this person was a little deep, and sometimes people couldn't understand it, such as at this time.
For the general, he should have the ability to perceive, the time and place are favorable, the advantages and disadvantages of the enemy and me, all of which are indispensable, and one step should be counted as a hundred steps. Liu Heizi and Tang Liang have grown quite rapidly this year, and they have only seen the situation on the way to send troops, but Wuya Aji has already reached Shengjing City, which is probably foreseen by veterans such as Lao Xiong.
Sure enough, Lu Jingshan, Lao Xiong and Hou Tian all glanced at Wu Ya Aji, their eyes were slightly surprised, but the war drums had been passed on, the army was already on standby on the battlefield, and the military strategy should be discussed as soon as possible, so no one thought about it anymore, Hou Tian said: "I said you, what do you still want to do with military strategy if you don't have a bright brain?" Isn't there a military advisor? Since the military advisor wants to save the governor, there must be a way. ”
The generals looked at Han Qichu together and smiled incomprehensibly when they saw him.
