Chapter 696: Military Charges
"Slaughter generals who have contributed to the dynasty? Where did this begin? ”
Xia Fan leaned back in his chair and asked with squinted eyes.
"Master Guoshi, the Ming people don't say secret words, you should be very clear about what you have done, and our military is also well aware of these situations, otherwise it would be impossible to invite you here in accordance with the wartime decree, so pretending to be stupid is a joke for both you and us."
The general sitting on the main seat said with some dissatisfaction.
"I really don't know very well, and I would like to ask General Ku to be more straightforward."
Xia Fan shrugged his shoulders and said with an innocent expression.
"Okay, since the National Teacher is forgetful, then I will remind the National Teacher."
Kuhai sat up straight, and said in a deep voice: "Not long ago, because he had to deal with some personal matters, the National Teacher passed by the occupied garrison of the Fourth Army of my Foreign Expeditionary Force, and then there was a violent conflict with the relevant general Li Wei in the garrison. Without obtaining any legal authority, the National Teacher disposed of our general Li Weiwei without authorization, and together with a total of 27 generals under Li Weiwei, all died at the hands of the National Teacher, this matter is ...... Right? ”
"There are two errors."
Xia Fan stretched out two fingers, and in a slightly stunned state of the bitter sea, he spoke: "The first mistake, Li Weiwei and I did not have a violent conflict, it is a very simple matter to clean them up, and there is no need for the so-called 'violent conflict'." The second mistake is that I did not dispose of those people without any legal authority. According to the laws of the dynasty, the national teacher also has a certain right to supervise the country, as long as the reigning emperor agrees and gives authorization, then the matter is urgent, and the national teacher has the right to kill anyone first. ”
Speaking of this, Xia Fan withdrew his two fingers, put his hands crossed in front of him, and said with a smile: "Before going to the Fourth Army to occupy the garrison, I have already obtained the relevant authorization from the current Majesty, and if the military does not believe it, I can confront the current Majesty." ”
"You talk nonsense! You left the dynasty this time just to deal with personal matters, and you didn't even think about encountering any problems related to the dynasty! How could it be possible to ask His Majesty for this so-called authorization in advance! Master of the National Teacher! Talking about it is also logical! Could it be that before you left Kyoto Prefecture, you already knew what would happen in the occupied area of the Fourth Army? ”
Kuhai leaned forward and said angrily.
"It's true that I'm going out for personal matters, but as a national teacher of the dynasty, I naturally always pay attention to the dynasty in my heart, and in order to avoid being caught off guard in the event of some unexpected events, it is normal to make some preparations in advance. I still say the same thing, if the military doesn't believe it, you can go to Your Majesty to confront it. ”
Xia Fan spread out his hand, still with an innocent expression on his face, and continued: "Could it be that the military suspects Your Majesty's personality and thinks that Your Majesty will lie about this kind of thing?" ”
The bitter sea was suddenly suffocated, thinking that of course His Majesty would lie! As long as it involves your Xia Fan, what can't Your Majesty do?
Although he thought so in his heart, he couldn't say that, Kuhai forcibly suppressed the anger in his heart and continued: "Okay! Even if you have Your Majesty's authorization in advance, we can't forgive you for what you have done to the Fourth Army! plus Li Weiwei, a total of twenty-eight generals! And they are all middle and high-ranking generals in the dynastic army! Each of them has made great achievements, and they can be called a hundred battle generals! ”
"Especially Li Weiwei, who can become the leader of one of the seven expeditionary forces of the dynasty, Li Weiwei, whether it is personal ability or military literacy, is the top among all the generals in the military, and it is such a group of heroes who shed their blood for the dynasty, but they were inexplicably killed by the national teachers of the dynasty! They did not die on the battlefield, but at the hands of their own people! Master of the National Teacher! I ask you, don't you have anything to explain about that? If we all tolerate such a thing, who else in the army would dare to fight the enemy? Don't let the soldiers on the front line shed blood and tears! ”
As soon as Kuhai's words fell, Xia Fan applauded.
The applause was quite abrupt, and with the look of admiration on Xia Fan's face, for a while, most of the momentum created by the bitter sea through these words directly dissipated.
"Master National Teacher, can I understand that you are despising our soldiers?"
Kuhai's face was extremely gloomy for a while, and the soldiers on both sides also looked at Xia Fan angrily.
"No, I respect the soldiers of the dynasty from the bottom of my heart, those soldiers who shed their blood on the front line and sacrificed their all for the entire dynasty are the loveliest and most respectable group of the dynasty, but merit does not mean that the merit can be deducted, no one can make mistakes or even commit crimes at will because they think they have worked hard and made high achievements, does General Ku think so?"
Xia Fan shook his head, and the expression on his face became serious.
This sentence...... I think it's very suitable for you, the National Teacher. ”
Kuhai said in a deep voice.
"Since the military knows everything about what I did in the occupied areas of the Fourth Army, it should also know very well what the Fourth Army has done in the occupied areas.
Xia Fan asked with a serious face.
"Attitude? We don't think there's anything wrong with the Fourth Army's approach, of course, maybe they're too radical in their handling of some things, but that doesn't mean they've made unforgivable mistakes. Where is the enemy country after all, we have to be responsible for our own soldiers, so naturally we have to be cruel to the enemy country! If I could save at least one of our soldiers' lives by killing a thousand ordinary people by mistake, then I would not hesitate to do it, and I believe that all the generals in the military will do it without hesitation. ”
Kuhai stared at Xia Fan and continued word by word: "In my opinion, even if all the people of the enemy country are combined, their lives are not as important as one of our ordinary soldiers!" ”
"It sounds inflammatory, but unfortunately, the more inflammatory the statement, the more wrong it tends to be. General Kuhai, I would like to ask, do you represent yourself or the entire military? ”
Xia Fan looked at Kuhai's slightly crazy eyes and asked.
"Does it make a difference?"
Kuhai asked with a frown.
"Of course it's different, if it's just your personal opinion, I don't care too much, it's normal for a group to have a few crazy people. But if this is the opinion of the entire military, I have to consider some very serious issues, if the whole group is in a frenzy, then in the near future, it will definitely bring destruction. ”
Xia Fan said, already standing up from his seat.
