"How can you say that, going home is not necessarily a shame, returning to your hometown with glory and returning to your hometown, have you heard of it?"

Yang Santai seemed to have caught the handle in Yang Huairen's words, and immediately asked, "What the general said makes sense, returning to his hometown with glory and returning to his hometown is of course glorious and proud, but I am now driven out of the forbidden army because of illness, and I go home like this, how can it be regarded as a return to my hometown?" ”

"This ......"

"It's not impossible for me Yang Santai to go back to my hometown, according to what the general said, if the general can come back with some merit from the last battlefield, then I don't need the general to speak, I will consciously go home."

Now Yang Huairen was in trouble and dug a pit for himself. Now how is he going to find a battle for him? You can't find something to do to fight with the Hu people, right?

Besides, even if there is a real war, whether the soldiers of Long Wuwei and Hu Benwei have a chance to go to the battlefield or not, it is not his turn Yang Huairen to have the final say, there are officials and the Privy Council above him, and the battle in Huanzhou is purely accidental, but it is impossible to find it.

"Nonsense!"

Yang Huairen straightened his face, "Yang Santai, you are not too young, according to the grade, I have to call you uncle, the two of us are still our own family, you talk these things nonsense, have you ever thought about the things in this world, can't I just talk about it?"

I still want to go to the battlefield to fight, are you teasing me? I said that tomorrow I will lead everyone to sweep the Western Xia and the Khitan, can the court let it? What can the official family make? ”

Seeing that Yang Santai was silent, Yang Huairen continued, "I said that letting you go home is an honorable discharge, not to drive you away."

Do you think I'm willing to be a wicked person and drive you away so that you hate me for the rest of your lives? I don't have that disease! You ask yourself, is your age, your body, really fit to stay?

You also said that you want to go to the battlefield to fight, so let me ask you, if you really go to the battlefield and your arthritis attacks again, do you want others to fight on your back? ”

"I ...... I promise not to drag ......"

"You promise a fart! You can't promise anything, if I let you go to the battlefield, it will be for you to die, and not only that, but you will kill one more comrade around you, you know? ”

Yang Santai also imagined a picture, on the battlefield, he was fine, but suddenly arthritis happened again, he couldn't run, so he had to let another comrade-in-arms carry him, and the result was that the two of them were shot by the enemy with one arrow and two birds with one stone.

He was also afraid, knowing that Yang Huairen scolded him reasonably, his current age and physical condition were indeed not suitable for going to the battlefield to make meritorious contributions.

But he just didn't want to leave, and two lines of tears flowed.

"General, Xiao Di also knows that what you said makes sense, but ...... Xiaodi just doesn't want to leave, I've been in Long Wuwei for more than 20 years, what my hometown is like, and I almost forget my mother's face.

And everyone here seems to be my family, Long Wuwei, is my home, this family was not very good before, but I have gotten used to it, and now that it has begun to get better, I am even more reluctant to leave.

If I'm gone, where can I go? Go back to your hometown? But what can you do when you go back? I don't even know if my father and mother are still there, and my brothers have already started a family, who else cares if I live or die? ”

A big man cried in front of him like this, and Yang Huairen felt a little unbearable in his heart. And what Yang Santai said also has his truth.

He has been in the army since he was a child and has been away from home for more than 20 years, maybe it is really like what he said, his father and mother, and the faces of his relatives He has a vague memory, and those people, do they still remember his face?

Although he did not have the opportunity to make contributions, Yang Santai did dedicate his youth to the forbidden army, and today he is no longer young, and it is indeed difficult for him to integrate into society if he leaves the forbidden army.

Yang Huairen was really embarrassed, because he thought that there were still two thousand people like Yang Santai in Long Wuwei and Hu Benwei, and they were indeed physically or age-free to continue to stay in the barracks, but their feelings for the barracks were not fake.

Although the camp has changed places, and there are many people around them, in their eyes, the place called Long Wuwei is their home, and the people around them usually don't feel anything, but when they want to leave, they find that those people are their brothers and their own family.

For a moment, Yang Huairen really felt that it was okay to let them stay, even if they couldn't go into battle to fight and do logistics work.

But thinking about it on the other hand, if this is the case, then what is the reward and punishment system he formulated to make the forbidden army stronger?

The redundancy of personnel in the forbidden army is not a matter of one or two days, and this is an important reason for the low combat effectiveness and low quality of the forbidden army.

A lot of people know this, and some people have thought about changing that through change, but over the years, no one has actually done it.

Human favors, face, relationships, various reasons led to the failure of the reform, the forbidden army is still the weak forbidden army, the personnel continue to be redundant, the empty salary eats empty salary, and the training has always been slack, and nothing has changed.

This change must be done, the future Long Wuwei and Hu Benwei must be different from the previous forbidden army, and they must be responsible for these people who were persuaded to retire, but also for the entire Great Song Dynasty, as well as for the millions of people of the Great Song Dynasty.

Therefore, the streamlining of personnel must be carried out, and there is no room for progress.

However, Yang Huairen suddenly thought of a point, let them leave the forbidden army, and they did not necessarily have to let them go back to their hometown.

"Yang Santai, I won't talk nonsense, since the system has been decided, we must strictly abide by it. But...... When you leave the forbidden army, you don't necessarily have to go back to your hometown. ”

Yang Santai's heart tightened after listening to the first half of the sentence, and after listening to the whole sentence, he seemed to see a glimmer of hope again.

"I mean, people like you may not be suitable to stay in the current Dragon Warrior Guard, but that doesn't mean you can't stay and do things."

"Doing things? What to do? ”

"Did you know that on the other side of the valley, an academy is about to be completed?"

Yang Santai nodded, everyone in the camp knew that on the other side of the valley was a college that Yang Huairen spent money to build to teach cooks, as if the construction was very fast and was almost completed.

"I, Yang Huairen, am not impersonal, you who have been honorably discharged from the army, if you want, you can go to the academy to learn cooking and learn a craft of eating, there is always no harm.

Moreover, in the future, the leaders of Long Wuwei and Hu Benwei will be found from the graduates of the academy, as long as you study well, you will still have a chance to return to the forbidden army.

Even if you can't return to the forbidden army, I promise to arrange a way for you to live, become a cook, and now you make a lot of money, and no one will laugh at you by working to support your family. ”
