Chapter 1093: Buying People's Hearts
Li Xin made a bitter face and tried to persuade Liang Kun to give him some more time, but Liang Kun didn't even give him a chance to say a word, and directly told him to get out with a wave of his hand. At this time, where did Li Xin dare to touch Liang Kun's brows, sighed and left the camp.
"It's hard before, it's hard after, and my life is too hard."
On the way back, a sigh floated out of his mouth, and the melancholy expression on Li Xin's face made all the soldiers he met on the road couldn't help but walk around him, and some even avoided it from afar. However, there was also a big list, not only did not dodge, but even smiled and stepped forward: "Isn't this Vice General Li?" Why is he so sad, isn't he encountering some difficult problems to solve? ”
This voice is-
Li Xin raised his head suddenly, and happened to look at the person who came up with a smile.
"Eldest son, why are you here?"
Luo Yu smiled slightly, he was already handsome, and when he smiled, he became more and more approachable. is obviously a person of noble status, and he can treat people whose status is far inferior to his own, even an inconspicuous junior soldier in the army, and he can treat each other as equals and have a gentle attitude, which makes Luo Yu quite popular in the military camp. Even Li Xin, who had a lot of prejudice against him before, was also very impressed.
I saw Luo Yu raise the object in his hand and said with a smile: "I'll send medicine to General Liang." ”
After Liang Kun was captured, he spent some time in a dark and damp cell, where he was punished by the enemy, so his vitality was greatly damaged, and he has not yet recovered. There is a shortage of doctors and medicines in the army, and it is normal to take some from the city, but it is abnormal that Luo Yu, the person in power, actually came to the barracks, which is too tiring and troublesome.
A hint of surprise flashed at the corners of Li Xin's eyes and eyebrows: "For such a trivial matter, just send someone over, why bother the eldest prince to run this trip himself." ”
"Ahem, in addition to sending medicinal herbs over, I also have some things I want to discuss with General Liang, and Luocheng is not far from the military camp, so it is not a bother. By the way, just now I saw Vice General Li walking this way from a distance, and his expression didn't seem to be very happy, didn't he encounter some problem? ”
"This ......." Li Xin hesitated.
Luo Yu obviously saw the flashing emotion, but pretended not to see anything: "Maybe I can also help with Vice General Li's problem." ”
Li Xin still didn't confess.
Luo Yu rolled his eyes, deliberately pretended to be lost, waved his hand, and said with a wry smile: "Alas, if Vice General Li is unwilling to say, then I won't be reluctant, after all, an outsider, it's not good to ask too much." ”
"No, how can the eldest prince be considered an outsider?" Li Xin finally couldn't help but open his mouth, "Actually, this is not a secret in the army, it's just a little unpleasant to say." If the eldest prince wants to listen, we can talk in another place. ”
After getting the answer he wanted, Luo Yu was much more relaxed: "Then let's go." ”
The medicinal materials in his hand were handed over by Luo Yu to the hands of the little maid, and then the two of them went one after the other and found a secluded place. Out of caution, Li Xin looked around, and after making sure that there was absolutely no one lurking in the surroundings, his heart completely relaxed: "This matter is related to the prestige of the general. ”
Subsequently, Li Xin said that Liang Kun had a bad reputation in the barracks, and most of the officers and soldiers in the army had opinions about him, and also said the deadline given to him by Liang Kun by the way, and sighed at the end: "The eldest prince is also a person in a high position, and he should know the importance of controlling people's hearts." Leading troops to fight, the most taboo is that the people's hearts are not aligned, an army without cohesion is like a plate of scattered sand, no matter how good the strategy is, it is impossible to win, and this is the problem that the general is facing at present. ”
Luo Yu nodded as if he didn't understand: "I can understand this mood, but I don't understand why General Liang has this change." When he was recuperating from his injuries in Luocheng before, General Liang never showed a bad side of his character....... Isn't my memory messed up?."
As soon as she said this, Li Xin couldn't help but sigh.
"The eldest prince doesn't have to doubt himself, the general has indeed changed a lot. Although the former general was not as gentle and atmospheric as the eldest prince, he was not as irascible and irritable as he is now, and he even understood his subordinates quite well before........ All these changes began when the general returned to the barracks. After returning to the barracks, the general was like a different person, like an irritable and irritable tiger, and the officers and men in the army were either reprimanded by him or saw him reprimand others with their own eyes, and it was precisely because of this that the army was unstable. Even those of us who have followed the general for many years cannot escape this calamity. ”
"This is strange, what happened to the general when he returned to the barracks?"
"No, as soon as the military division is divided, the people in the entire military camp obey the general's words, what can happen?"
The two glanced at each other, and Luo Yu clearly saw from the other party's gaze that he was dissatisfied with Liang Kun, although it was only a little bit, but a spark could start a prairie fire.
Luo Yu narrowed his eyes slightly: "Maybe the general is just like this for a while, and he will naturally change back after a while." ”
"Will it naturally change back after a while? Hehe, I'm afraid that by the time the general comes back, I will have become a corpse. ”
"Vice Admiral Li doesn't need to be so pessimistic." Luo Yu patted the other party's shoulder to express comfort, and said with an idea, "It's not very difficult to convince people's hearts, maybe Vice General Li can listen to my advice." ”
Li Xin suddenly became interested, he was desperate under Liang Kun's coercion, rather than waiting to die, it was better to listen to other people's advice to use the dead horse as a live horse doctor, maybe he could get a glimmer of life!
"Prince, please speak!"
Luo Yu didn't hide it, he stepped forward to expand his thoughts a little bit, only to see Li Xin nodding again and again, his face full of excitement, but the joy didn't last long, and soon he collapsed again: "What the eldest prince said is indeed a good way, but it is not easy to do." ”
Luo Yu's method of buying people's hearts is just to give the soldiers a little sweetness, and work hard in the barracks, maybe some people are to serve the country, but more people are the kind of people who chase interests, who doesn't want to become a general? People want to go to a high place, just find a name to reward and reward, it is a small favor, and it can also buy a person's heart. Isn't there a saying that people are short?
"The general may not be able to come up with that much money."
They came to march and fight, and they didn't come to buy people's hearts, so they didn't bring so many silver taels at all, and when the time came, the rewards were unevenly distributed, and I am afraid that they would have to complain even more.
Luo Yu had long thought that he would raise this question, and said with a slight smile: "This Deputy General Li doesn't have to worry." My Luo family has taken root in Luocheng for so many years, although it is not a rich family, but these silver taels are still taken out. ”
Li Xin's eyes widened suddenly, he couldn't imagine that Luo Yu was willing to give money even if he wanted to break his head: "What the eldest prince said is true?" ”
Luo Yu smiled and blinked: "Do I look like I'm joking?" ”
It was like a person who had been in the dark for a long time suddenly saw the sun, and Li Xin only felt that the shining one in front of him was so bright that he couldn't open his eyes. At the same time, he was full of joy, if Luo Yu was willing to pay to reward the soldiers, those dissatisfaction might be able to be pressed, and what the general told him to do could be regarded as done.
"Eldest prince, you are really a timely rain to save people!"
Li Xin immediately returned to the camp, and Luo Yu's suggestion was told to Liang Kun.
Liang Kun frowned: "The eldest prince is too generous. ”
Li Xin was stunned when she heard this, and she also figured out that something was wrong. Luo Yu has not known Liang Kun for a long time, his friendship is not deep, and Liang Kun does not have much say in the court, why does he want to help so desperately? It was very puzzling when he specially led the troops to the army to rescue people before, and now he wants to pay money to reward the soldiers, isn't there something sneaky in his heart?
Li Xin gasped: "It's because the subordinates are not thoughtful." ”
This time, Liang Kun didn't get angry at his subordinates, but just frowned and said: "There is something else wrong with this matter, you promise Luo Yu first to see if he is really willing to pay........ If it's true, it's good for us, if it's fake, hehe, he sent it to the door himself, don't blame us for being polite. ”
Liang Kun in this matter and Liang Kun who held Luo Yu's hand before and thanked him repeatedly.
Li Xin stood in place and looked at him silently, suddenly feeling that he didn't know much about his boss, at least he had never seen a general like this.
This person was so strange that he was frightened: "Maybe the eldest prince is just out of good intentions........"
"Good intentions? Heh, when has there ever been such a thing on the battlefield? Who knows if there is a trap in front of him, just waiting for someone to jump down? Unless Luo Cheng can fall into my hands, Luo Yu will never be a credible person. ”
Li Xin closed his eyes: "My subordinates understand." ”
How happy Li Xin was when he heard Luo Yu's suggestion, and how disappointed he was with Liang Kun now.
When he was in the Praetorian Guard, he accidentally committed a crime, and it was Liang Kun who guaranteed him, and when he encountered difficulties, Liang Kun helped solve them, and it was because of this that Li Xin obeyed him.
He always thought that the people he followed were loyal and righteous people, even if he was not loyal, there must be righteousness, after all, Liang Kun used to be good to his brother. But today, he began to doubt his own thoughts.
People who can be so ruthless to their benefactors, do they really take the word righteousness to heart?
As if walking into a misty deep forest, Li Xin was full of confusion and couldn't find the direction of the road at all.
Just when he was confused, his subordinates hurriedly came to report: "Vice General Li, the eldest prince is here, and he has sent a lot of things." ”
Li Xin breathed heavily: "What did you send?" ”
The subordinates didn't expect his reaction to be so big, they were stunned at first, and then scratched their heads and said with a blank face: "The subordinates don't know what the big boxes are in, they only know that the eldest prince attaches great importance to them and orders people to handle them gently." ”
