The chariot stopped in front of Fusu's car in a hurry, and a black-faced general dressed in military uniform got out of the car, saluted Fusu, and said that he had come to greet Gongzi and supervise the army. Fusu also returned the favor and apologized for being late.

But before he could say the next sentence, Heifu first confessed, summoned Zhao Ben, the captain in charge of the people, and reprimanded:

"Captain Zhao, when you set off from Xianyang, you were scheduled to arrive in Yiju yesterday, but they have not been seen for a long time. The military situation is like fire, the border is continuous, you have been delayed for a day, why do you want to stop here! ”

The lieutenant's name is Zhao Ben, and he is still the nephew of Zhao Hai, the commander of the Northland County, in this battle, Heifu is the general of the Northland Front, and he is above the captain and the captain, so he can only confess......

Seeing that Zhao Ben had represented him, Fusu felt guilty, stepped forward and said: "Please don't blame Captain Zhao, let the people stop and rest, it is Fusu's resolution." ”

"Was it Childe's order?"

Fusu is the supervising army, the so-called supervising army, is appointed by the imperial court, to control the transportation and supply, the general's rewards and punishments and other important military, as well as the communication between the army and the imperial court, the official rank and status are theoretically lower than the chief general of the army, but the chief general can not give orders to the supervising army, and the two sides check and balance each other.

Whether to stop or go is indeed his right, but ......

Heifu has lowered his posture and personally went to Yiju Township to wait for a day, but he couldn't see him left and right, so he had no choice but to urge him in person, and he was really a little angry in his heart, and his impression of Fusu was greatly reduced.

Although the other party is the eldest son of the empire, it is a matter of the priority of this battle and the issue of grain and grass escort in the future, Heifu does not intend to give in, so he said: "Heifu wants to know, why is the son like this?" ”

Fusu did not have the indispensable life of the noble son, and replied without humility or arrogance: "The weather is very hot, the people are not accustomed to the water and soil, eat from time to time, several people die every day, and today more than a dozen people fainted. ”

Heifu was a little surprised, looking at the resting people, and then at Fusu, even if he was in the military, he was still an outstanding son.

It stands to reason that this group of sons and brothers who grew up in the deep palace and raised in the hands of women, who does not regard human life as grass mustard and ordinary people as dung, Fusu will actually pity the servant and regret the death of several people, but it is a strange thing......

But this mercy was placed in the wrong place, at the wrong time.

So Heifu said: "The art of war is cloudy, and the pawn is like a baby, so you can go to the deep stream with it; Treat the pawn as a beloved son, so he can die with him...... Childe does not despise them because of their status, but regards the people as babies and beloved sons, and Heifu admires them. ”

He then changed his voice and said solemnly: "But there is another sentence in the art of war, thick but not able, love but not ordered, chaos and can't be cured, such as arrogance, it can't be used!" ”

"It's not that the commander of the army can't have a heart of kindness, but it's not that he can't be too merciful. If we are not strict, soft-hearted, tolerant and accommodating, and fail to be lenient, at the critical moment, we will not be able to govern, we will not be able to make it, and we will not be able to order! ”

"Thank you, General, for teaching you the art of war."

Fusu bowed slightly, but said: "Although the general's words are reasonable, do you want Fusu to sit back and watch the soldiers fall and ignore them?" ”

Heifu smiled: "More than 10,000 people in the whole army stopped and waited for more than a dozen people, I'm afraid it's not a good way." ”

He said to Captain Zhao Ben: "Pass the order, so that the seriously ill will camp on the spot for treatment and rest, and then the junior officials will take them to the county seat to report later." Those who faint mildly are carried in the car, and those who are tired can help the car to go with them, so that no one will die on the side of the road! It won't delay the trip. ”

looked at Fusu again: "What does Childe think so?" ”

Fusu was stunned for a moment, and after thinking about it carefully, Heifu's method was indeed more comprehensive than his, so he said: "General Wei's strategy is feasible." ”

At the end, Heifu said: "Announce to everyone again that there will be fish soup to drink when you arrive!" ”

Zhao Ben glanced at Fusu and went as ordered, according to military regulations, when the chief general and the supervising army are all present, he will give priority to obeying the main general, unless he is deprived of command by the supervising army by showing His Majesty's letter......

"General Wei is worthy of being a veteran general with great military achievements, and he is thoughtful."

Fusu had nothing to say, and Heifu not only properly dealt with the injured and sick, but also gave encouragement to those who could still walk, and he couldn't find fault at all.

"Heifu also learned it from the old general Wang Qian."

Heifu said: "A few years ago, in the fierce battle of Huaibei, our army pursued the fleeing Chu army in the swamp. When they were extremely tired and even ran to death or died of exhaustion, many soldiers wanted to rest a little. At this time, General Wang Lao said such a sentence: Ci is not in charge of the army, if Xiang Yan is allowed to escape, the fighter will be delayed, and the future will be endless. At that time, Qin Chu will fight again with the whole army, and it will not be dozens of tired soldiers who will die, but thousands of soldiers! ”

"Therefore, since then, Heifu has also learned one thing, the commander of the general, must have an iron will and determination, command and act, and must not spoil the overall situation because of soft-heartedness!"

The last time the Huns were lured by the grain team to make the first move, it may also lead to heavy casualties in the grain team, but after calculating it, the gains should be greater than the losses.

If you can't bear to throw the bait in your hand, you won't be able to catch a fish.

In the same way, if the people were to rest because they were tired and delayed in bringing food to the front, the soldiers who fought against the enemy might starve. Those who fight hungry and do not have to die may die tragically due to the weakness of their hands, which will lead to the defeat of a front, and eventually the whole situation will collapse, and the dead will be everywhere. ”

Saying this, Fusu's face changed slightly, which he really didn't expect when he was young.

"Heifu secretly thinks that if this situation occurs, it will be the greatest injustice! Today's matter, I heard that Gongzi has punished himself for the second class, so forget it, but I hope that Gongzi will supervise the grain in the future, don't delay the trip! ”

Fusu was secretly reprimanded by Heifu, but he was not annoyed and angry, but solemnly lowered his sleeves and bowed his hand: "Fusu has been taught." ”

At this time, under Zhao Ben's announcement, the people were urged to get up, and Heifu said: "The grain team will leave immediately, Heifu will lead the way for Gongzi in front, how about Gongzi delaying?" ”

"The Lord will be in front, and the prison army will be behind, as it should be."

Heifu nodded at Tang Duo and left with his entourage, at this time, the master of Fang Cai had a conversation with the prison army, and Chun Yuyuecai, who did not dare to speak knowingly, said in a low voice:

"This lieutenant general, although his attitude is modest, but in his words, he has a lot of criticisms and even reprimands for his son!"

Fusu shook his head: "General Wei's words do have some truth. Knowing is knowing, not knowing is not knowing, Fusu was in the early days of the military, and he really didn't understand military affairs. only cares about the fatigue of the people, but forgets that the front-line soldiers are also looking forward to food, taking care of one and losing the other, and helping the Soviet Union, if you encounter similar things in the future, you should follow the law of the general! ”

After that, he seemed to think of something, looked at Chun Yuyue, and said with a smile: "Also, General Wei governs the army strictly, does not accommodate the Gongzi supervising the army, and talks to me neither humbly nor arrogantly. ”

The Mo family admired Heifu more, and Tang Duo was overjoyed: "That's right! The lieutenant general is a capable general! ”

Chun Yuyue wanted to say more, but was stopped by Fusu reaching out.

"Mr. Chunyu, Mr. Tang, like you, I don't agree with my father's wanton dispatch of troops to fight this open border battle that hurts the people's strength. None of these 15,000 people from the Kanto region wanted to go to the outside of the country. But since Fusu has been given the mission, whether he wants it or not, from the day the division is released, he must do a good job of the responsibility of supervising the army! The chief general and the supervising army not only check and balance each other, but also assist each other, I hope to cooperate frankly with General Wei, similar words, sir must not repeat in the future! ”

Chun Yu retreated, although this son is elegant and benevolent, he also has his own stubbornness in his bones, which cannot be changed in a few words.

Seeing that the grain team was about to set off again, Fusu, as the supervisor of the postponement, took the time to visit the few people who were suffering from severe heat stroke, vomiting and fever, and could only rest in the pavilion.

He didn't have a frame at all, like a jade boy walking among the sweaty people, everyone was respectful, but also retreated, for fear of soiling the son's clothes......

"Fusu will not let the second and third sons fall to death."

The people who were left behind for treatment in the Fusu Dynasty gave up, and regardless of whether these people from the Kanto region could understand his words or not, he turned around, and the perseverance in his eyes when he recited "Dongshan" remained unchanged.

Seeing the long line in front of him embark on the long journey again, he held on to the rails and said secretly in his heart: "General Wei said that Ci is not in charge of the troops, this is reasonable." ”

"But I'm not a general in charge of the army, but a son of the overseer......"

Walking in this group of people for more than half a month, watching their lives and listening to their complaints, Fusu understands that the world is initially decided, and the people of Shandong just want to live a good life at home, spring ploughing and autumn harvest, and no one wants to come to fight this battle.

But the emperor has a life, and he has to obey, Fusu only feels that as the prince of Qin and as a prisoner, he may be able to make them feel some kindness.

If even he turned a blind eye, then what reason did these people, who were treated as relocated slaves by the Qin soldiers and flogged and driven away at every turn, have any reason other than the harsh law of strangling their necks, so that they can carry grain and bear the pain of thousands of miles of transfer in this war that has nothing to do with them?

"Therefore, the general shall not be merciful and help the Su, but he will be merciful to everyone!"
