They are extremely proud people, full of ambition, and most eager to be recognized by others for their abilities. It is precisely because of this that after Enwei and Shi subdued his subordinates and attacked the city one after another, although the two remembered Qin Wan's warning, took precautions against the Jiang family, and always paid attention to the soldiers who were later allocated to them, they never thought that those soldiers who died with their birth at the beginning would betray so lightly.
This heel is too ruthless, if it weren't for the fact that they are both resolute people, one has outstanding knowledge, the other has exquisite means, and before going on the expedition, he listened to Qin Wan explain the benefits and disadvantages, and knew that if he couldn't survive, the acting king would not fight the Jiang family for them, and the whole family would suffer, maybe after planting, they wouldn't be able to climb up.
Saving King Lu is the greatest achievement of Zhao and Xiao, and it is also the capital for them to turn over, but for them, this is not a commendable thing, but it is extremely humiliating - as a general, the people under him can't be contained, and they almost lost their 'lives', and they have to be in the company of bandits.
Seeing this, Qin Wan comforted gently: "All living beings, who doesn't feel that they are different? You don't know what these people are, and it's not a shame to be deceived. ”
It's okay if she doesn't say it, but as soon as she says this, Xiao Yu and Zhao Su are even more depressed.
Although the Xiao family is a declining family that is not worth mentioning in the eyes of the powerful, Xiao Yu, as the captain of the Bei Yaxun Mansion, is even more unwilling to surrender to his soldiers, but that is just because Jiang Xiao deliberately pressed his 'sex', Xiao Yu was relatively young at the time, and his wrists and confidence were not very sufficient. Although he was despised by the children of the high-ranking 'men', in the eyes of those low-level officials and even the common people, he was still a great high-ranking official and noble, and everyone had to flatter him when he went to the locality. This is also the reason why his biological mother made a big joke in Chang'an, and no one dared to marry him, and he was still able to marry the 'daughter' of the Longxi Ban family. Because of this, although he was very considerate of the soldiers and not as cold as other generals, he could not completely let go of his body.
Zhao Su was born in a low-level officer's family, he has been exposed to it since he was a child, and he has been exiled for ten years with the king, so he naturally knows what the low-level soldiers are. But he was accustomed to seeing the soldiers who were fierce and vicious to the people and obedient as dogs in the face of their commanders, and kept wagging their tails and flattering and flattering, so he felt that if he gave the soldiers gold, silver, and wealth, and some people would rush to serve him under the generous reward. It wasn't until he was betrayed that he suddenly realized that what he could give, the Jiang family could give even more. These people will obey him for money, and they will also listen to the Jiang family for money.
Qin Wan listened to the feelings of the two and was thoughtful.
The official position of Beiya is hereditary, and the recruits are also selected from these families who are innocent and loyal to Daxia for several lifetimes. As a last resort, no one dares to form a deep grudge against anyone, and it is not for nothing that there are generals who dare not reinforce because of timidity, and sit back and watch the death of Paoze, but most of them will be ostracized by the entire Beiya faction, and it will be difficult to continue to stay here, let alone openly betray the people who have betrayed the upper peak.
The same is true for officials and officials, who stay in one place for the rest of their lives, and the future of their children and grandchildren is still uncertain, so they must have a good relationship with their neighbors, at least someone must cover them, but the government soldiers are different.
Although the government soldiers also live in the cantonment, after farming, they are led by the generals of the Zhichong Prefecture to 'drill' training, if there is a war to be called, but it is the commander of the military generals who cannot be beaten by the eight poles, and after the war is over, they return to the original cantonment. Not only that, there are few government soldiers on expeditions, and even fewer have been away for a long time, if it weren't for the fact that Great Xia's control over Jiangnan was not too strong, and this rebellion 'rebellion' involved many families in Jiangnan, so they called all the government soldiers to go to Jiangnan to fight together.
Just imagine, under such circumstances, how much trust can the government soldiers have in the coach? After all, whoever gives the most money is the boss, after all, on the battlefield, it's too easy to kill someone. The Jiang family has money, it's useless to buy off one or two soldiers, what about buying off all your men? The conscience is disturbed, and the "color" of hesitation is revealed...... I'm sorry, please die!
"It's good to remember 'sex' for a long time." Pei Xi sat leisurely on the side and said coldly, "The reason why the family has a trilogy is because of this reason. When you go to the border in the future, you will know that no matter which side of the south, east, west, and north, as long as it borders other countries, the troops stationed there will be peculiar, not only government soldiers, but also recruited soldiers. Those are the outlaws who want money and don't want to die, and if they want to recover them, they are fierce and indispensable, and they can't do without money. ”
Recruitment? When did the dynasty have a system of conscription?
Chen Miao stood behind Qin Wan and listened inexplicably, and the other people present had already come back to their senses - the government soldiers asked for a clean family background, the first one was to have a clean background, and it was better for those who had lived in the local area for generations, and the second one was to have a field near the cantonment site, that is, to enter the local household registration register.
For ordinary people, these two articles are logical, but in addition to the people who keep to themselves, there are many outlaws in this world. They were either 'forced' and persecuted by the family, plundering the land and even taking them into slavery, and could not survive, or they were ruthless in nature and did all kinds of evil, or they offended the officials and had to remain incognito. These people are naturally extremely vicious to ordinary people, but in the eyes of those border generals, they are the most useful weapons, as for the law? In the border pass, there are small fights every three or five days, and there are endless wars in the 'spring' and autumn seasons, and there are large-scale invasions of foreign races every few years, so it's good to survive, and what kind of law do you care?
Hearing Pei Xi's subtext, Xiao Yu 'revealed' a trace of surprise: "The last general ......" can still go to the north?
Seeing that he was worried, Qin Wan smiled and said, "The Jiang family has lived in Runan for generations, and although their family is prominent, their hands have not grown enough to 'intervene' in the northern border. "Especially after falling into such a big faceless place, and already known to the saints, the Jiang family didn't dare to act rashly.
When Zhao Su heard this, he just wanted to breathe a sigh of relief, when he heard Qin Wan Shi Ran say: "Of course, if someone wants to go further to the Jiang family, it is not impossible to do something to you. But are you willing to stay in the capital for the sake of comfort and wealth for the rest of your life, and be a rich idler with no name? ”
Qin Wan knew in his heart that this answer must be "no".
Most of the generals are like this, taking advantage of their youth, they use their 'sexual' lives to fight for wealth and wealth, so as to pave the way for their children and grandchildren. Especially Xiao Yu, who wants to revitalize the family and wash away all the humiliations caused by the "son of filling the house", and Zhao Su, who desperately wants to climb into the aristocratic circle. Changed to the Mu family, Sui Jian and other natural brocade clothes 'jade' food, Zhu robe 'jade' belt, no worries about the decline of the family, even if you are a military general, you are also a Taiping military general, how can you have this kind of courage to fight in blood and fire?
What is the reason why Xing Chao agreed to the Jiang family's request, risked offending the acting king, and used the authority in his hands to carry out false accusations? Many people may not believe it, but in Xing Chao's opinion, he really focuses on the overall situation.
This person has been in the army for decades, and he is also a high-ranking general in the army, and he has also fought some victories, but in the final analysis, they are all peaceful, and they don't sound thrilling, tortuous or brilliant victories at all, and he doesn't take much head, which is not a great achievement. The sage just saw that he was steady, senior, and old, and there was not much power behind him, at least he didn't know which prince's faction he was, so he chose him as the commander of the counterinsurgency.
Facts have proved that Xing Chao is indeed very steady in the war, advancing step by step, although the progress is not fast enough, the process is very smooth, and there are almost no big 'waves'. With the national strength of Great Xia, it is indeed not necessary to fight quickly to pacify the 'chaos' situation in Jiangnan, and dragging it can drag the rebellious Jiangnan family to death. However, it was precisely because the war was too smooth, Xing Chao's prestige was insufficient, and the drawbacks of not being strong enough in the background were 'exposed' -- many generals saw that the war was going well, and they felt that the enemy was vulnerable, and they thought that victory was within reach, and they desperately fought for credit, not to mention asking for their lives.
Xing Chao is always serious, and naturally understands that the more times like this, the more negligence can not be tolerated, after all, what is the case, if it is defeated repeatedly, it is particularly inspiring to win once, if it is won repeatedly, it will not fail once...... Morale suddenly fell to the lowest, and it was not impossible to be defeated by the enemy.
I have to say that his idea is very good and correct, but unfortunately, as time goes by, he not only can't suppress those high-born 'doors', or the generals who are attached to the kings, but even the soldiers at the bottom are quite resentful, who let these soldiers get a reward for their heads?
At this time, the Jiang family found Xing Chao and made a request for mutual benefit - Xing Chao turned a blind eye and watched them make a move against Xiao Yu, and even added fire when necessary. In exchange for 'handover', the Jiang family helped Xing Chao suppress those opposing voices and ensure that most of the people could take back their claws in this rebellion. Of course, those who received the secret orders of the kings did not count, and their skills were not yet as great as that. Xiao Yu's repeated military exploits are true, but his official position is not high, and he is also responsible for the attack in some areas, plus the army is like a bamboo, winning battles everywhere, although Xiao Yu's growth and achievements are very eye-catching, but he has not been able to turn the tide, and he has to do it. Compared with his life and death, it is natural that the situation in Jiangnan is more important, as for how to 'deliver' to the king...... The battlefield is originally a place where swords have no eyes and dead people are normal! Besides, as long as the rebellion in Jiangnan is quelled, and the power of some families in Jiangnan is weakened or even uprooted, no one can deny Xing Chao's merits, even if the kings only have to win him over, how can they be afraid of the acting king? For two unimportant vassals and a noble who has just made great contributions, few people will do such a loss-making and loss-making deal, who makes people of such status never lack refuge, let alone slaves?
