Volume VIII Praise 51 Praise

When it comes to the war in Dizhou, even Hong Jixun can't help but feel sorry, and there is a little respect in his compassion.

"yes. Of the more than 4,000 guards in the city, less than 1,000 were withdrawn. Luo Guoqi was really lucky to be able to escape, but it was a pity that Ji Zongzhou fell into the city. There is even more Ji Chong, knowing that returning to the city is death, but he still fights for himself, but fortunately, after being seriously injured, he happened to be met by Luo Guoqi and saved him. There is also Wang Guoyi, although he was attacked by the Yuan army because of carelessness, but he finally took the lead and repelled the Yuan army in time, so he received Luo Guoqi, Ji Chong and other soldiers who broke through the siege, and there was no mistake after mistake. ”

"It's not enough for the fallen soldiers. Do you know, sir? What is it that makes me feel most unbearable? ”

"But the badly wounded soldiers who were left behind in the city?"

"Exactly! Luo Guoqi's military newspaper said that there was no time to care about them when they broke out. I had no choice but to leave it in the city. The Tartars are ferocious, what will they do to them when they enter the city? Go without saying. His fate will definitely be inevitable, and I am afraid that it will not be a happy death. As their lord, he can't let them die in battle with dignity, but like chickens and dogs, he can be slaughtered wantonly. Deng She sighed, shook his head reproachfully, and did not continue.

After the Yuan army captured Dizhou, it would face a counterattack by Yidu reinforcements at any time, and it would definitely not have the heart to contain the prisoners, and those wounded would definitely be killed.

Deng She's self-blame was not only because he felt ashamed of the soldiers, because the Anliao army had been with him for a long time, and there were many old men who were thieves and thieves in it, including some low-level officers and even non-commissioned officers, and he also knew each other, and it was inevitable that they would have feelings for each other.

At the same time, it is also very sad. The sergeants of the Anliao Army are all old soldiers, even if they are wounded, they are also very precious treasures, and they did not die on the battlefield, but were killed by others without the power to fight back, which is indeed extremely worthless.

When the city fell, the enemy entered the city, set fire everywhere, and the wounded were in a desperate situation, knowing that they would die, the despair at that time can be imagined. They are all warriors who have been in the army for a long time and have experienced a hundred battles, not to mention that Deng She is sad about it, I am afraid that even they themselves feel that this kind of death is not worth it. Perhaps, there will be some singing and crying stories, and it is also known. It's just that, whether or not these stories have ever been there, they have all been dispersed with the wind with the gradually extinguishing fire and the gradually dissipating smoke.

War is such a tragic one.

People will always remember the glorious heroes. Even if the little person is a little person, whether it is glory or disgrace, or life and death, even if it is pathetic or heroic, in the end, in the final analysis, it is just a string of numbers.

"The lord doesn't have to blame himself too much. The reason why Dizhou fell was first of all because Wang Guoyi did not respond effectively; Secondly, because Luo Guoqi and Ji Zongzhou were careless, and they had nothing to do with the lord. After our Yidu reinforcements recapture the city, we can slowly punish those who have failed in their duties and seek justice for the wounded. ”

"Ji Zongzhou died with the city, which was really unexpected to me. ......, by the way, sir, did Luo Guoqi send Ji Chong back? ”

"Ji Chong is seriously injured and can't go fast. At this point, it's still on the way. ”

Deng She was silent for a moment and said, "When he returns to Yidu, you must remember to notify me as soon as possible." This time guarding Dizhou, the Ji father and son were loyal, and the city fell; A person is filial piety and generously dies. They are all good men in my Haidong. It is necessary to vigorously commend and praise them, so as to set an example for those who come after them. ”

"Yes."

"Ji Zong died on Monday, and the Ji family lost a big tree. And Ji Chong is still young, but he should not be too high. In this way, I heard that Ji Chong has three younger brothers, all of whom are not married yet. Sir, choose a few large families, and choose from among your subordinates. Pick a gentle one. I'll be the matchmaker, and I'll match them separately! ”

Hong Jixun was not surprised why Deng She suddenly had this idea, this was not only to reward the Ji family, but also to show other courtiers to relieve his worries, but he said: "This ,......。 Lord, Ji Zong Zhou Cai, according to the etiquette law, it is not appropriate to marry his sons now. ”

"Then the marriage will be betrothed first. ......, let's ask Ji Chong's younger brothers, are there any willing to join the army? If there is, pick one out and let him take over Ji Chong's position. If not, I will elect one person to come to my palace and be a senator. ”

"Succeed Ji Chong?"

"Ji's father and son have made this contribution, of course, they must be rewarded. I'm going to transfer Ji Chong to my guard and give Shi Sanqian as a deputy. ”

Ji Chong is already a military position, and it is abrupt to change to a civilian position, but if he continues to put him on the front line, it seems that Deng She has no sympathy, and he loses the meaning of "doing it for others". Therefore, simply transfer to the guard, and you can also take this opportunity to learn more about him, and if it is of great use, it is not too late to release him.

Hong Jixun Bingxue was smart, and immediately understood Deng She's intentions, nodded yes, paused, and suddenly sighed, and then smiled.

"Why does the gentleman sigh? Why are you laughing? ”

"Chen originally thought that Ji Zongzhou was a 'Feng Dao today', but he didn't expect it but walked away. I really didn't expect that this person actually has a side that sees death as home. read Luo Guoqi's military report, saying that when defending the city, he sat firmly at the head of the city and stroked the qin to help until the city was broken. The courage is also quite strong. The minister sighed, it was a pity that he understood him too late. ”

"People are the hardest thing to understand. The so-called 'coffin closure'. As long as you don't die, it's possible to change. A coward can be a warrior; A warrior can also become a coward. But why is the gentleman laughing? ”

"The minister laughs, because the death of Ji Zongzhou this time, although the lord has lost a powerful courtier, it is not a good opportunity."

"What good chance?"

"An opportunity to completely integrate the Yidu region into Haidong."

There are two representatives of the old ministers of Yidu, Chen Yutou is the number of military generals, and Ji Zongzhou is in the Wenchen.

The military generals said that Chen Yutou and Gao Yanshi had already been subdued. Wenchen is not the case, the scholars have many eyes and ideas, especially some are arrogant, pay attention to "the three armies can win the commander, but the husband can not win the ambition", or it is easy to use, but it is even more difficult to win his heart. Taking this opportunity to vigorously praise the Ji family is indeed helpful to the heart of the old ministers. This is also why Deng She gave so many orders one after another just now.

"Whoever knows me, sir."

After talking with Hong Jixun about military affairs for a while, discussing some government affairs, seeing that it was not early, Deng She sent him out of the court, stood in the courtyard with his hands, watched him go away, stood alone under the tree for a while, called three or two followers, and went to the backyard.
