Chapter XIV: Interrogation
In the turbulent times of the Northern and Southern Dynasties, the country went back and forth to fight and war, and what the people wanted was actually food and clothing, so naturally there was no way to say anything about reading and writing, let alone learning the art of war. Even some generals who led the troops did not understand the art of war, but they just followed the rules and regulations of the previous term, and most of the battles relied on the army to cover up and kill.
This also makes several strong armies in the north and south of the dynasty particularly dazzling, such as the Beifu soldiers who won the battle of Weishui and saved the Eastern Jin Dynasty, the Xifu soldiers who once decided the change of several dynasties in the Southern Dynasties, and the white-robed army that swept Heluo with 7,000 cavalry, all belong to the first-class strong army, it is precisely because these armies from the commander to the soldiers, the quality is generally higher than that of the enemy and the rest of their own army, and the order prohibits the execution of the law of war, and the battle is rushed to kill the robe, so it can show its own light in this troubled world.
Compared with the Beifu soldiers and Xifu soldiers who relied on the advantages of the Han family athletes in the north, Chen Qingzhi's white-robed army can definitely be said to be an army formed on the basis of the children of the south, and it is also an army cultivated by Chen Qingzhi, a Confucian general.
According to the military books that Li Cheng and others more or less knew, Li Xinchen vaguely figured out what Chen Qingzhi relied on.
The sage Confucius has a cloud: there is no class in teaching.
In fact, Chen Qingzhi's method is very simple, since he can't recruit good soldiers, he simply teaches these soldiers some knowledge of the art of war, which seems to be just a wishful thinking of a Confucian general, and may even attract the eyes and cynicism of many generals, but it is these not complicated military knowledge and terminology that allow the soldiers to more fully understand the intentions of the main general in the chaotic battle, so as to achieve the order and prohibition from another angle - everyone knows which direction to attack, even if there is no order from the commander, and naturally will attack in that direction, so compared with the rest of the army, Chen Qingzhi's white-robed army changes formation more quickly on the battlefield, and the army officers and soldiers can cooperate with each other, people and people cooperate with each other, squads and squads cooperate with each other, and continue to rise is the cooperation between these seven thousand cavalry, so it has become a whole that swept across the two Huai Heluo.
And from another aspect, Chen Qingzhi was able to teach the non-commissioned officers the art of war, and also gathered the morale of the army to a certain extent, so that the non-commissioned soldiers felt the importance of the commander to themselves and the difference between themselves and the rest of the army, which naturally enhanced the cohesion of this army, and then increased the fighting spirit and unity of the army when facing the enemy.
Kill two birds with one stone.
Therefore, the white-robed army more or less knows some of the art of war, and the guards around Chen Qingzhi, such as Li Cheng, have learned more in the process of fighting side by side with Chen Qingzhi, at least famous articles like "The Art of War", although they can't understand some places, they can recite them.
And then Li Cheng and they took root in this village, one is to cultivate the next generation of young people to protect the village to survive in the troubled times, and the other is also out of nostalgia for Chen Qingzhi, so the three of them set up a private school, and what they taught is the art of war that Chen Qingzhi taught them at the beginning, although these things are not much, but compared with the rest of the young people of the same era, Li Xinchen has to sigh that the young men in this village are still lucky.
Something is better than nothing.
It's just that now it seems that the effect is not very good, after all, Li Cheng himself is half a bottle of vinegar swaying, and they don't understand much, they are all memorized by rote, if Zheng Qing and they can have an epiphany when they meet such a teacher, then they are real geniuses.
There are not many geniuses in this small village, and there is one Li Xinchen, and Li Cheng and they are content.
"But we don't know where these bandits are gathered now, let alone how many of them there are." Zheng Qing said with some embarrassment, "We have few people, so what if we can't find it?" โ
Li Xinchen chuckled lightly and pointed to the outside of the ancestral hall: "We don't know, but there are two guys who know." โ
โโโโโโโโโโโโ-
"Smack!" The cowhide whip whipped on his body, and he was drenched in blood.
The facial features on the faces of the two thieves were already wrinkled together, and it was obvious that even those of them who robbed houses couldn't bear the pain. A thief shouted in a hoarse voice: "Good man, let's be lighter, we also have a hard time, if we say everything now, in the future, it will fall into the hands of the brothers, I am afraid that there will be no place to die!" โ
"If you don't say anything now, you will still die without a place to be buried." Li Xinchen said coldly, these two guys had obviously shown a decadent look before, Li Xinchen thought that as long as he casually slapped and interrogated, he would be able to pry their teeth open, but now it seems that he really underestimated the hard bones of these bandits.
There are two possibilities for a person to be hard-mouthed, one is that the person is indeed determined, and the other is naturally the revenge that he will face once he says it, and this person has no way to bear it, so he would rather grit his teeth and support the past than say it.
And it is obvious that these two thieves now belong to the latter, which also makes Li Xinchen put away the last bit of underestimation of the enemy. These two guys are afraid of being retaliated against by their accomplices after they say it, which can show that this group of bandits has strict discipline and organization, which is definitely not so easy to deal with, and it also further verifies Li Cheng's conjecture before, this is a group of guerrillas, and they also maintain the rules of the army.
Li Xinchen frowned, it was really difficult to deal with, he didn't expect that he would have to face such a strong opponent at the beginning of the crossing. At that moment, he glanced at Zheng Qing beside him, Zheng Qing and Song Fei and others were whipping people for the first time, such a bloody scene, even if they were hunters in the mountains, their stomachs couldn't help but turn over the rivers and seas, after all, prey and people are still different after all, and they are not killing people now, but torturing them.
But looking at Li Xinchen, who was also experiencing this scene for the first time, frowning and giving orders, Zheng Qing, Seinfeld and the others suppressed their disgusting feelings and strode forward. Li Xinchen has always been their idol and role model, and now Brother Chen can hold on, what can't everyone persevere, you must know that the burden on Brother Chen's shoulders is much heavier than theirs!
"This is your choice, ask again, do you say yes?" Li Xinchen squatted down and looked at the two thieves who were already blurred with flesh and blood, these two guys were able to support this step really surprised him, but it didn't mean that Li Xinchen was not prepared to deal with them in other ways. At this moment, Li Xinchen knew very well that if he was not cruel to them, then they would show their fangs to themselves and the entire village.
So he had no choice but to pry open the mouths of these two guys by all means!
"I really can't ยทยทยทยทยทยท" The thief on the left whispered, already angry.
Although Zheng Qing and the others couldn't bear to see such a scene, they didn't show the slightest mercy, and the strength to deal with prey like wild boars was used on people, and even Li Xinchen had to sigh that these two thieves really had some ability.
