Chapter 22: Born with Evil
The original intention of human beings to establish the army can be said to be extremely cruel, and its only purpose is to destroy its own kind more effectively. www.biquge.info Even in the later generations when civilization was highly developed, the theme of the world became peace and development, but the construction of the army never stopped, and the white-hot competition became more intense, because the enemy of the army changed from human beings themselves to prevent alien invasion.
Although the army was built to eliminate, the slogan of the army has always been to protect.
From protecting the emperor to protecting the country, the nation, and even all mankind.
This slogan has been around since the establishment of the army.
Since the righteousness of the army is for protection, it is natural for Wen to use this function.
The effectiveness of the armed forces, which is organized and disciplined, in the various post-disaster reconstructions, is astonishing. As long as it is a disaster, there will be all kinds of emergencies, and even many times people need to pay the price of their lives to prevent the further expansion of the disaster.
The post-war reconstruction of Zezhou City has been in full swing for seven days with the help of 50,000 troops of the imperial court.
In the main tent of the marching camp, Gao Huaide had a complicated mood, looking at the news that was lying on the case and was busy writing, and he wanted to stop talking.
Wen stopped writing charcoal, and smiled at Gao Huaide: "General Gao, if there is something, it doesn't hurt to speak directly." ”
"Wen Shuai, now that all the rebels have withdrawn to Shangdang, should our army immediately take measures against them?" Gao Huaide said. He was in a very complicated mood now, on the one hand, he had doubts about Wen's military talents, and on the other hand, he had a trace of gratitude for the events of that night seven days ago. Thinking of the destructive power generated by the explosion of the divine thunder, I felt palpitations. At that time, if he accidentally ignited the divine thunder, all the generals and His Majesty present would be killed, and the consequences would be unimaginable.
"General Gao, don't worry, we still have the resettlement of the victims as our first priority." In the past few days, almost all the generals in the barracks have come to Wen Wen to give advice. Now that the rebels are demoralized, and they have the weapon of the gods in their hands, as long as they drive the army to the party, the rebels will be defeated without a fight. These generals couldn't understand why Wen gave up such a good fighter plane and concentrated on the firefighting and disaster relief work in Zezhou City.
In order to reduce the losses, it is understandable to send troops to extinguish the fire, but it is difficult for these generals to accept the help of the people to build houses. Seeing and hearing about the current posture, I still have to carry on this cause endlessly, and my heart naturally begins to be dissatisfied.
In their minds, the army is for fighting, not for servitude.
"Wen Shuai, it is impossible to properly resettle these hundreds of thousands of victims in a few months. But we urgently need to defeat the rebels now, and the war cannot be delayed. Gao Huaide said solemnly. Seeing and hearing the current attitude, he has no intention of looking for a decisive battle of the rebels, Gao Huaide is anxious, Pan Mei is now under great pressure from Li Chongjin in Shouzhou, in case of a sudden war in Yangzhou, the consequences are unimaginable.
"What does General Gao mean by talking about His Majesty now?" Seeing that Gao Huaide's tone was not good, Wen frowned slightly.
"It's the meaning of humbling yourself, please Wen Shuai make a decision as soon as possible." Gao Huaide bowed his hand and said. After the siege of Zezhou was over, since Zhao Laoer did not take back Wen's military power and appointed him to continue to be fully responsible for the Jinzhou war, he naturally would not interfere in Wen's decision-making again.
Wen nodded slightly and said: "Since Your Majesty is not in a hurry, General Gao does not need to be in a hurry, and the commander has his own decision." ”
Seeing that his mind had been decided, Gao Huaide sighed deeply in his heart, and left with a sad face.
"You're going to drag it out like this?" Tan Fengyi, who was standing on the side, saw Gao Huaide out of the tent, so she asked.
"At least let the people have a place to live." Wen sighed. This time the city of Zezhou was burned, and the most serious losses were the ordinary people. Wen Wen's current mentality has not yet reached the realm of success and ten thousand bones, even if he has the name of righteousness in his hand, but the guilt in his heart still exists.
Tan Fengyi's expression was a little sad when she heard this, so she comforted: "You are a general, don't mind too much." ”
Wen turned his head and glanced at Tan Fengyi in surprise and said, "Fengyi, a few days ago, you had to kill me, why are you still comforting me now?" ”
In fact, hearing the nightmares she has often had in the past few days, the outpouring of feelings in her sleep is naturally clear to Tan Fengyi. For the burning of Zezhou City, Wen's heart is undoubtedly guilty, but this guilt can only be expressed in his sleep.
Tan Fengyi snorted lightly, and no longer paid attention to it, obviously it was really difficult to announce it as a woman peeping at a man sleeping.
Seeing that Tan Fengyi didn't care about herself, she turned her head helplessly and slowly fell into meditation.
"Report!"
Outside the tent, the voice of a herald interrupted Wen's thoughts.
"What?" Smell the words.
The herald outside the tent immediately walked in, knelt on one knee, and reported: "Marshal Qiyu, it has now been ascertained that Li Yun, the chief general of the rebels, died in the fire in the Zezhou Mansion. ”
"Is the news true?" Wen confirmed.
"Marshal Qiyu, in order to ensure the accuracy of the news, all the people who knew the rebel general Li Yun among the captives recognized each other with their eyes, and finally confirmed that the person who went to the fire was Li Yun himself." The herald replied.
After thinking for a moment, he said, "Report this news to Your Majesty and spread it to the whole army." ”
"No." The herald replied.
"Zezhou City, how is the disaster relief situation?" Wen continued to ask.
"Back to the commander, the fire in Zezhou City has been extinguished, and the people are renovating their homes with the assistance of our army." The herald replied.
Wen nodded and said solemnly: "We must emphasize discipline, strictly implement the five rules and thirteen beheadings, and those who dare to commit adultery, robbery, and murder of the people's property will not be pardoned." General Shi ordered that the inspection should not be slack. ”
"No." The herald replied in a loud voice.
"Let's go down." Wen sighed. No matter how strict the discipline is, I am afraid it will be difficult to prevent these things from happening. The biggest reason for the current soldiers to become soldiers is to be able to eat a full meal, and it is simply unrealistic to expect them to have a noble ideological consciousness.
When the herald saw that there was no other command, he bowed and withdrew.
Tan Fengyi was surprised: "Li Yun actually burned himself to death. ”
This is what the history books record, but I didn't expect that the wheel of history did not change direction because of the addition of his praying mantis, and Li Yun still did not escape the fate of being burned to death. Wen sighed with emotion: "You can't live if you do your own evil!" ”
In today's world, the war has been raging for a long time, and the people have begun to look forward to a stable life, hoping that in the name of restoring the Great Zhou Dynasty of the previous dynasty, they want to let the generals of the former dynasty take refuge, and the people are obedient, which is simply a fool's dream. During the five dynasties, their existence was very short, and it was extremely difficult for the people to be loyal to them.
"You've been waiting for so many days just to confirm the news?" Tan Fengyi asked.
Wen nodded and muttered, "If you can die less, let's die less." ”
"What do you mean?" Tan Fengyi listened to the whispering, and she didn't understand it.
Wen lifted his spirits and said: "Some people are born to be a great scourge, and if they die one, they can be happy for thousands of families." ”
"Like you?" Tan Fengyi teased.
