Chapter 191: Ci is not in charge of the troops
In fact, Zu Di was also surprised that Xu Xun knew "Yu Punishment", this book was only a small part of the manuscript left after the first emperor burned the book and pit Confucianism, and his ancestors were fortunate to get a copy It was a great luck, and many of his own methods of governing the army also benefited from this ancient method, so Zu Di really couldn't understand that Xu Xun, who came from a small family, also knew this method, which really surprised Zu Di.
Xu Xian naturally saw the surprise in Zu Di's eyes, and explained: "My father once spent his life studying the criminal codes of all dynasties, from the "Tang Punishment" (the general name of the criminal law of slavery in the Shang Dynasty named after Tang. "Zuo Chuan, the sixth year of Zhao Gong": "Shang has a chaotic government, and he is punished by soup." To the Western Zhou Dynasty (the sale contract that appeared in the Western Zhou Dynasty) and Fu Bei (the loan contract that appeared in the Western Zhou Dynasty) were involved, so I have also heard of this law in the "Yu Punishment".
Xu Xian's words surprised both Zu Di and Zu Gai, but they didn't expect Xu Xian to be proficient in criminal codes!
Zu Di nodded lightly, and said warmly: "There are many wonderful points in this method, especially in the management of the army, there are many that are worth learning from, and the Xia generation is almost all fighting with various nomadic tribes on the grassland, so many of their punishments are customized for nomadic tribes, and there are indeed many things that can be used for reference."
Zu should also be in line with the Tao: "What Shizhi said is extremely true, although it is not possible to use this means today, but it is very beneficial in order not to be defeated when encountering the Xiongnu in the future."
Xu Yan also nodded and said: "Although there are many killings in this method, it has a very deterrent effect, and it is used for the surrender of troops, and it will not damage the original members of the Wuyi Army, it can be both powerful and attacking, it is really a wonderful method, but it is just ......."
Zu Di and Zu Ying both didn't understand what Xu Yan meant, and the two of them asked in unison, "It's just what?" ”
"Although we can slowly let these troops completely integrate into our Wudifficult army, but only military law has no way to inflict heavy damage on the Hun iron cavalry, I am afraid that it will backfire, especially if I say a big disrespectful word, if we and the Hun iron cavalry encounter on the plain, once our Wudifficult army is defeated, the sequelae of this law will appear......"
Zu should have been a little by Xu Yan's words, and also fell into contemplation, because now there is indeed no good way to deal with the Hun cavalry, if you really encounter the Hun cavalry on the plain, the victory or defeat is obvious, at that time, if these soldiers see their generals defeated by the Hun iron cavalry, at that time, even if Zu Di still has food in his hands, these people will not come back......
Thinking of this, Zu Cai was also a little worried, and his eyes involuntarily looked at Zu Di.
Of course, Zu Di knew Xu Xian's allusion that he actually had to use this method as a last resort, and whether he could really completely integrate this batch of tens of thousands of troops, the key was to look at the first battle with the Huns, if he won, the army would go to the next level and lose, then he might not even have a chance to turn over, and he would even be attacked by these soldiers when he escaped, so this method from "Yu Punishment" was also struggling for a long time before using it!
Zu Di's mind suddenly recalled the plot when he watched this book, and he clearly remembered the last sentence of the text: I hereby use this method, be cautious, and use it as a last resort!
Thinking of this, Zu Di unconsciously smiled bitterly......
Zu Di said to Xu Xun and Zu Cai: "Although the Xiongnu are the strongest in cavalry, but the land of Guanzhong is not everywhere in the plains, as long as we can detect the enemy situation first, and then cooperate with Sima Mo, the king of Nanyang, and fight according to the city, we still have a great chance of winning."
Zu Gai and Xu Yan both heard the helplessness in Zu Di's words, after all, this Hun iron horse was really too strong, especially their bow horse was even more terrifying......
Zu Di was tired for a day, he was indeed a little tired, and after seeing off his eldest brother Zu Gai and Xu Xian, he returned to the Xu family alone.
He found that Xu was already asleep, so he took off his armor and slowly walked to Xu's side, and when he was about to sleep with his clothes, he heard Xu speak.
"Husband......
"Lady? Well? Why don't you sleep yet? ”
"I'm going to school today......"
"You saw it all?"
"Hmm".
"Do you also think I'm cruel and let them kill each other?"
"I'm a little sad, but what my husband does is for everyone's sake and for the sake of the army."
"Lady, do you think I'm terrible......"
"A little ......"
“…….”
"Husband, what would you do if I was among them, and it was I who drew the death lot?"
"Lady, this doesn't look like what you should say?"
"But I want to know ......"
"Military law cannot be violated!"
When Zu Di said this, his heart was throbbing, when those people killed their comrades-in-arms who had lived and died together in front of him, those crazy scenes, when did his heart actually calm down? And the initiator of all this is himself! I saw the end from the beginning to the end, without pity or guilt, but why did my mother's words make my heart hesitate and start to throb......
Zu Di looked into Xu's eyes and said again: "If you and I are both inside, I will live and die with you!" ”
When Xu Shi heard this, he immediately hugged Zu Di Kuiwei's body, and tears couldn't stop flowing......
On the fourth day of the ninth month in 311 A.D., in the afternoon
Liu Yao's army slowly drove out of Tongguan and marched all the way to Chang'an.
On the wall of Tongguan, Zhao Ling saw the figure of Liu Yao, the king of Shi'an, who was far away, and he felt that he really couldn't understand this Liu Yao, the king of Shi'an, because he was not only willing to divide his troops to others, but even asked that Liu Cang for himself to take care of Tongguan, and even did not leave a single soldier in Tongguan, did he do this because he trusted himself? You must know that Tongguan is the only way for them to retreat, if they fail to attack Chang'an, and they close their doors, they will be a dead end, and this Shi'an King Liu Yao can trust himself so much, I really don't know whether to say that this Shi'an King Liu Yao is stupid or he is too trustworthy?
In short, although Liu Yao, the king of Shi'an, has gone away, Zhao Ling's heart is still up and down, and he even has a feeling that if he can never fight with this person, it may be a blessing!
And Zhao Yi, who was behind Zhao Ling, was looking at Zhao Ling, who was still watching Liu Yao, the king of Shi'an, with his eyes rolling, and he didn't know what he was thinking......
Zhao Ling suddenly turned around, walked in front of Zhao Yi, patted him on the shoulder, and said affirmatively: "Zhao Yi, have all the departments arranged the matter of defending the city?" ”
"General, it's already arranged!"
"Well, you are doing a very good job, when General Zhao Ran comes back, I will definitely ask the general for a reward for you!"
"General Xie's great grace! The last general must not hesitate to go to the soup for the general! ”
Zhao Ling nodded with satisfaction and looked into the distance again.
And Zhao Yi looked at Zhao Ling's figure, but his eyes became more complicated......
After Zhao Yi left, Zhao Ling remembered that he should hurry up and report to General Zhao Ran, report everything that happened here in Tongguan, and then wait for Zhao Ran's judgment and decision......
