633 In the Name of Righteousness?
Li Rusong fought very smoothly during this time, and his military self-confidence became more and more firm, and he didn't ask many questions, he already had a certain degree of trust in Xiao Ruxun's arrangement, and was willing to act according to orders and fight according to orders, which is a rare thing.
And the same is true for the other generals in this big tent, if you can lead them to victory as the commander, they will be willing to trust you, obey your orders, fight according to your plan, and complete strategic goals.
This kind of trust in the commander of the army is a very important foundation for an army to win a war, and as a violent machine, it is really necessary for the operation of the army to be on par with the machine.
Now this state is very good, the generals are obedient to Xiao Ruxun, they have trust in him, and Xiao Ruxun commands them very smoothly, which is very comfortable.
Regarding Li Rusong's invitation to fight, Xiao Ruxun only smiled.
"It's easy to clean them up, taking the old and weak women and children to fight has been the way to die since ancient times, I'm not worried about this, I'm worried about the safety of those Han people who are imprisoned in the camp by them, no one can take care of those Han people when they fight, I'm afraid that they will suffer, can you think of a way to rescue them first, and then deal with those northern captives?"
The generals looked at each other and looked at each other.
Li Rusong looked at Xiao Ruxun and opened his mouth, as if he wanted to say something long, but in the end, he only said: "Governor, Ci is not in charge of the army." β
He is very satisfied with Xiao Ruxun in terms of fighting, and he feels that he is inferior to Xiao Ruxun in many places, and admires him a little, but there is only one point, he is not very satisfied with Xiao Ruxun's many scruples in fighting.
Especially when they were fighting, they were required to protect the captured Han people and wanted to rescue them all, but in the battlefield, how could they be so calm unless they had an absolute advantage?
At present, there will be nearly 100,000 soldiers and civilians in the north, in this case, how can the army so calmly rescue the people and then fight a decisive battle with the northern captives? Isn't that a fantasy?
When Xiao Ruxun heard this, he realized that what he said was difficult for some strong people, so he hesitated.
Xu Guangqi looked at Xiao Ruxun's hesitant appearance, and felt that what Xiao Ruxun said was right, so he wanted to help Xiao Ruxun speak and strengthen Xiao Ruxun's beliefs, so that those innocent people could have a chance to survive.
So he spoke: "What the governor said is right, his subordinates think that if they can't save those people, if the army fights, they will be harmed, so let's think of a good way to save those people!" β
As soon as Xu Guangqi finished speaking, he suddenly felt a strange gaze staring at him.
"What's the matter with you here? Who are you? How can it be your turn to intervene as a clerk? β
Li Rusong was not polite to him at all, Xiao Ruxun said that, even if he said so, how could this secretary of the army who came out of nowhere dare to intervene in military affairs?
Xu Guangqi was immediately angry, he was a person, how could he be so angry by these vulgar martial artists? Where is the face?
"Mr. Li, how can you talk like that?"
"Why can't I talk like that? Don't think you're a lifter to mess around with this kind of thing! Even a governor wouldn't dare point a finger at me, let alone you? Besides, you said that you were going to save the people, and I asked you, how can you calmly save people when there are so many enemies? What is our mission? The lives of the people are important, so the lives of the soldiers under my command are not lives? A soldier is as cheap as grass and deserves to die on the battlefield, right? β
Li Rusong hates these literati who like to interject the most, what about lifting people, lifting people? Lao Tzu has even beaten more than one Jinshi!
"You ......"
Xu Guangqi was speechless by Li Rusong, he really didn't know how to refute, could he say that the life of a soldier is not life? If you want to say this, it is estimated that even if Xiao Ruxun is here, it will be difficult for him to leave this big tent.
"I can't even pick up the sword, and I haven't killed the Beiyu, and I dare to talk about military affairs! Hum! β
Li Rusong's words are already very polite, according to his usual code of conduct, if he hadn't estimated Xiao Ruxun's face, it is estimated that he would have come up to beat people a long time ago, Xu Guangqi had also heard of Li Rusong's domineering, but when he really saw it, he was still quite at a loss-
Where had he ever met such a strong and rude warrior?
He talks and laughs, and there is no vain correspondence.
But it's all rude warriors.
"That's it! Say no more! β
Xiao Ruxun frowned and spoke, and Li Rusong and other generals immediately clasped their fists and bowed, and retreated to their positions.
"Xu Guangqi, this is a military matter, you don't have a little experience, don't talk nonsense!"
Xiao Ruxun first reprimanded Xu Guangqi to appease the generals, Xu Guangqi admitted his mistake with a dazed face, and then stepped back and kept silent.
Then Xiao Ruxun looked at the generals and said: "This matter is that the governor has not thought about it, there are many northern captives here, and the situation is complicated, so you can't tie the hands and feet of the soldiers to bring about their own defeat, when the generals enter the army...... Just ......"
Xiao Ruxun hesitated.
But in the end, he gritted his teeth and ordered: "At all costs, eat all the northern captives here, and don't let go of any of them!" β
"No!"
The generals received the order, and their hearts were greatly relaxed.
"Of course, if you encounter a large group of Han people fleeing, don't kill them wantonly, at least, show them the direction of escape, and live one by one."
The generals looked at each otherβdon't you want us to tie our hands and feet?
Xiao Ruxun looked at the puzzled faces of the generals, pursed his lips, and said: "Okay, reiterate the military order, at all costs, eat the northern captives, and rescue Datong City, this is the primary purpose, and the rest ...... The Governor will not pursue it! Mr. Li, you will command this battle. β
The generals breathed a sigh of relief.
"No!"
Under the leadership of Li Rusong, the generals stepped out of the military tent.
After the generals left, Xu Guangqi couldn't help but step forward and asked, "Why did the governor give such an order?" In this way, those soldiers will definitely not care about the lives of the people, and there are obviously a large number of people who are enslaved by the northern captives, so I am afraid that a large number of innocent people will be killed! β
Xiao Ruxun looked at Xu Guangqi.
"Mr. Xu, do you think I don't know? The imperial court edict wants me to expel the northern captives to recapture Datong, this is my primary purpose, as the commander-in-chief, it is also necessary to let the soldiers under his command live as much as possible, and only if the conditions permit, I will let the army rescue the people, and the current situation, the number of northern captives is beyond imagination, and it is no longer beyond my control. β
"Do you want to let the innocent people be killed?"
Xiao Ruxun was silent.
"The governor is benevolent and loves the people, I heard that the governor always prepares more medicinal materials and military doctors when he fights, and he cares about the lives of the soldiers.
Xiao Ruxun looked at Xu Guangqi, and a bitter look appeared on his face.
