Volume 2 I Will Pull the Heavens and the Earth 6 Su Ji III.
After the city was breached, the soldiers generally had a conqueror's mentality. In the army, the black language is used to describe the Goryeo people as "two-legged sheep", which means life and death, and do whatever they want. The three-day slaughter of the city has even more indulged this mentality, making it develop to a peak.
People are emotional animals, slaughtering the city when they say slaughtering the city, and sealing the knife when they say that they will seal the knife, and few people can do it simply and neatly. Although Deng She's order to seal the knife was issued, there were many people who violated the yang and the yin. The three beheaded, just unlucky ghosts.
Early the next morning, Deng She went to send Wen Huaguo and Chen Hu out of the city. He almost suspected that he had arrived not in the barracks, but in the gates, there were piles of looted things from various departments, from pots and pans to wooden furniture. A pile in the east and a cluster in the west, squeezing the not wide camp road more and more narrow.
After walking a short distance, strings crossed the road and were tied to stakes placed on the ground, covered with all kinds of clothes. Most of them were replaced by old ones after the soldiers robbed the new ones. Most of them were born in agriculture, and they were afraid of poverty, so they were reluctant to throw them away, wash them, and keep them for replacement. Between the hemp covers, there were many women's clothes.
A few pigs and sheep, arched out of nowhere, covered in muddy water, snorted and chirped across the road, and the two officers shouted and cursed, and chased after them. Seeing Deng She, Wen Huaguo and others, they hurriedly stopped, gave a military salute, and ran again. It's a miasma.
Wen Huaguo smiled: "Dog's day, I can't even look at a pig." Then he raised his thumb and praised Deng She, "But these two boys fought well, and on the night of the camp, the one on the left cut three levels." Listening to the tone, these two officers are his subordinates.
If you want to say this situation, it's not that Dunshe hasn't seen it. There are even more outrageous ones in the Red Turban Army. But it was someone else's army, and he didn't feel anything when he looked at it before. Now this is my own army, and the foundation of standing up to save my life is completely different.
He suppressed his anger and pointed to the woman's clothes on the rope: "Who let it be hung?" ”
Wen Huaguo glanced at it and said with a big grin: "When I slaughtered the city, I robbed some Goryeo women, probably which brother who took pity on the fragrance and cherished the jade, and was reluctant to let the women dress up dirty. As he spoke, he looked left and right for a moment, then shook his mouth twice and shook his head, "It's not very pleasing to the eye." "Pull over a pro-soldier," Go, see which dog day hangs it, and the fuck quickly rips it off for Lao Tzu." ”
From Wen Huaguo's words, Deng She heard a layer of potential meaning, he turned his head and asked, "Are there women in the camp?" ”
"Do you need to say?" Wen Huaguo looked at him strangely, the red scarf has broken the city before, which time is not like this?
"How many?"
"I haven't counted." Wen Huaguo was about to say something more, but Chen Hu interrupted him and said, "It's not a lot, four or five hundred." Most of them were kept by centurions and above, and other soldiers robbed them, and the villains gathered together and set up a special prostitute camp. He pointed to the front right, "Where is it?" ”
Following the direction he pointed, separated by piles of booty, behind several tents, there was a circle of wooden fences, and there were dozens of tents, large and small. In front of each tabernacle, there was a long queue, and at the front was a table where an officer was seated. Every soldier who entered the tabernacle had to give him something, money or things.
This kind of scene has never been seen even in the red scarf. He rubbed his eyes, made sure that he was not dazzled, and for a moment he couldn't cry or laugh, and asked, "Whose idea?" ”
Wen Huaguo pushed out Luo Guoqi and patted him on the shoulder affectionately: "Lao Luo proposed it, it's really a good idea." General, in just two days, the quartermaster depot was collected,...... How much? He turned his head and asked Zhao Guo.
Zhao Guo was in charge of the military quartermaster and said: "Converted into silver, it is almost three thousand taels." ”
Luo Guoqi smiled modestly and didn't dare to take credit: "In the past, one of the purposes of setting up a female lu was to collect money for returning to the country. Our army was formed in hardship, and it came from afar, and the arsenal was not abundant. Therefore, the villain's inspiration is just to choose the wisdom of the sages, and there is nothing to boast about. ”
Deng She grabbed the horsewhip in his hand, looked at them as if they were proud of their merits but not proud, and almost slapped them with their heads and faces. Being in a dangerous place, like a leaky boat in the water, there is a danger of capsizing and sinking at any time, but they still have the heart to engage in these things! Barely restraining his anger, he said, "Order, tell the soldiers to disperse." When I left the city in the afternoon, it was time to reorganize and assemble. ”
"It's still early. General, you don't know, the puppies robbed a lot of things, and it was said that half of them were handed over to the public, and it was good to be able to hand over three. It's useless for them to keep the money, let's provide them with pleasure, one is to reward the army, and the other is to collect the money, which will be of great help to the next step of recruitment. ”
Wen Huaguo said that the head is the Tao, and his ideas represent the mainstream opinions of the generals. Since you plan to develop in Goryeo, recruiting troops is definitely necessary, and if you want to recruit soldiers, you must have money. The Shuangcheng Treasury was poor, and it didn't seize much, so it had to find another way. Therefore, when Luo Guoqi mentioned the setting up of military prostitutes, he all agreed.
"Ladies and gentlemen, prioritize them. The key now is not in recruitment, but in gaining a foothold. Deng She's fingers grasping the horsewhip were all white, he didn't want to get angry, pressed it again and again, and analyzed it for everyone, "We have only captured the twin cities, just like people, two legs can walk." The top priority at the moment is not to recruit troops, let alone to collect money. Instead, we had to hurry up and build camps, repair cities, pacify the city, set a goal, and capture them, so that the two cities would become horns, and they would be much more stable. ”
Everyone listened and nodded their heads. Luo Guoqi peeked at Deng She's expression, felt that something was wrong, and hurriedly said: "The general sees thousands of miles, and the villain is ashamed of himself." Listening to the general, it is indeed not the right time to set up military prostitutes. The villain will go, gather the headquarters, and ask the general to give a lecture. ”
Deng She stopped him: "The herald is more than 100 households, and those who keep women will all be handed over and not privately hidden." ”
Luo Guoqi's foot fell back to the same place. He didn't oppose it, but he heard and witnessed it, and in the past month, he probably understood the temper of the generals, and knew that there must be opposition. Dunshe, he did not dare to offend; Wen and Chen Zhuren, he doesn't want to offend.
Sure enough, Wen Huaguo was the first to be unhappy, he shouted: "General, just dismiss the military prostitutes, let the hundred households be happy." The brothers have been suffering for a month or two, and it is rare to be relaxed, this order is too unkind. ”
Monk Li followed: "The general is injured, and he has not been down to the camp in the past few days. The brothers were really miserable, and they all said that they had worked hard for thousands of miles, desperately not to capture the twin cities, and that it was worth dying to have the current enjoyment. ”
Deng She looked around, except for Zhao Guo and Zhang Xiao'er, the others either echoed or acquiesced to the general silence. As soon as the commander arrived, for the first time, his orders were not approved by the majority, and he immediately realized the seriousness of the situation.
He was silent for a moment and asked, "Of the more than 100 households, how many women are kept privately?" ”
"Six or seven out of ten." Chen Hu replied.
"What about more than 1,000 households?" More than 1,000 households, all of them are by Deng She's side, except for Zhao Guo and Zhang Ji'er, all of them remain. Even He Guangxiu grabbed one, which is called "foot warmer".
Deng She stopped talking, urged his mount, left the generals, and continued to walk. The generals looked at each other, and even the wooden man guessed that Deng She was angry. The atmosphere became awkward and oppressive. One by one, no one dared to speak loudly.
Chen Hu understood Deng She's mood better, he caught up and said, "Is the general worried that if the enemy attacks now, he is afraid that our army's morale will be low and he will not be able to resist?" ”
Deng She sneered: "Can't resist? I think it's a sudden collapse. "The horsewhip was raised, and the barracks were pointed out in the air," the generals hugged left and right, the centurion Changchun tent was warm, the ten-man changed to a tortoise, and the soldiers lined up to prostitute themselves. Yang Tian laughed, "It's ridiculous, it's a pity." ”
Wu Henian, who came with him, was interested, and came up to ask, "What is the general ridiculous?" He has always had no good impression of this group of martial artists, and he usually doesn't dare to offend, but he rarely sees an opportunity for Deng She to reprimand them, but he refuses to let it go.
"I laugh at what Mr. Hong said: prestige is vain, after all, Nanke is a dream. Tomorrow by the river, I am afraid that it will be the place where the general died. I didn't believe it at first, but when I look at it today, it's true! ”
"What is the general's pity?"
"It's a pity that Mr. Hong went out on business." Deng She touched his head and glanced at the heads of the generals, "These dozen or so good heads, when they fell down, he couldn't see them." Sighed, "If you knew today, why bother to break through Fengzhou?" "I felt sad in my heart, "It's better to persuade my father-in-law at that time, abandon everyone, and take the opportunity to go all the way back to my hometown, so that today Yin and Yang are separated and we can't see each other." ”
Wen Huaguo couldn't stand it, so he hit his horse to catch up, grabbed Deng She's reins, and shouted, "Brother She! Why do you say these things? The old boss died, and who of the brothers did not suffer? ”
"Pain? I see that everyone is very happy. When death is approaching, they are still busy enjoying themselves. Pushing aside Wen Huaguo's hand, Deng She scoffed.
For his subordinates, blindly getting angry can't do it, he can rely on the general order to forcibly implement the confiscation, but the temporary suppression will inevitably lead to a stronger backlash in the end. Therefore, as soon as he saw that the opposition was in the majority, he immediately changed his mind and used the method of first provoking the generals and then reasoning to convince them to accept the order.
Wen Huaguo's face flushed, he couldn't hear anyone say that he was greedy for life and death, greedy for pleasure, and said angrily: "It's nothing more than some girls, what do you say, what do you say, what do I do." ”
Luo Guoqi played a round game: "The general is far away, the so-called victory is not arrogant, it should be so, it should be so." ”
Brother Yellow Donkey has been following last, and over the past few days, he feels that he is becoming more and more like the ears of a deaf man. Seeing that Deng She, Wen, and Chen disagreed, they gloated, and couldn't help but add fuel to the fire: "The rangers have released a hundred miles, and it is a bit of a storm, and our army will definitely know in advance." As soon as the enemy comes, it's never too late to prepare. According to the villain's opinion, General Wen is right, relax for a few days, and then make the brothers happy. It also seems that the general is benevolent and righteous. ”
After saying that, he regretted it, and he was quick to talk for a while, so don't spoil the big things in the future. Hurriedly peeked at Deng She, and found that he didn't even look at himself. In addition to being relieved, the shame of being despised rose again. He gritted his teeth secretly, and rode a donkey to read the record book, and walked and see.
Not only Deng She, but what he said, including Monk Li, Luo Guoqi, and Guan Shirong, did not pay attention to it. Among the few people, the most indifferent should be Guan Shirong. He is not a woman, but his clansmen have robbed a lot, so on the side, he does not oppose or support.
Chen Hu diverted the topic and said, "It's strange to mention Koreans. The city was broken for several days, but there was not even a single movement. ”
Luo Guoqi said: "To the north of the twin cities is the Wolf Forest Mountain Range, and to the south there is the mud river. The big cities of Goryeo are all in Shanxi and Hedong, and the villain guesses that it takes time to move, and it is not easy to cross the mountains and cross the river. ……”
"It was not easy for our army to cross the river and the mountains and cross the Jurchen land. How many days did it take to get to the Twin Cities? ”
"Eight days."
"How many days have the city been broken?"
"Five days."
"How many days do you think the Goryeo army is left?"
Pinching his fingers and calculating carefully, Luo Guoqi deduced again and again, and really became nervous: "The short is four or five days, and the long is ten days." "There are many mountains and rivers in Goryeo, and the speed of the march will not be fast, but compared with the Jurchen land they passed, the terrain of Shanxi and Hedong is much easier to walk. Coupled with the time to assemble the army and mobilize grain and grass, no matter how wide you count, it will not exceed half a month.
Deng She asked again: "How many days does it take to repair the city and build the camp?" ”
"It will take four days at the earliest."
Deng She raised the whip again and lit the brothel camp: "The soldiers are in this state, can they be repaired in four days?" A rope stood in front of him, and the pro-soldiers who opened the way were a little slower, and Deng She whipped it down, and the stakes pulling the ropes on both sides fell to the ground.
In the dust, he looked back at the generals on his horse, changed color and said: "The city is not well repaired, the camp cannot be built, the enemy is not moving, and there will be thunder at every turn, what to resist?" The anger he had suppressed for a long time burst out, and he was furious, "Take you? You? Or do you count on these turtles, prostitutes? Or are those heroes who are on top of the fat powder array, and the women have soft legs? ”
He has never been angry in front of the generals, and he has always spoken politely. Now that the thunder is furious, Wen and Chen are silent.
Dunsher was so loud that it cracked the wound and soaked the gauze with blood. Zhao Guo hurriedly came over and re-bandaged. He closed his eyes, anxious, worried, angry, and all kinds of emotions surged into his heart like a tide, prompting him not to vomit or be unhappy: "As soon as Fengzhou is broken, rush eastward." Luckily, Yongping was obtained, and the army was slightly strengthened.
"Since the northbound journey, there have been two wars. On the night of the camp, the sound of artillery fire shook the heavens and the earth, and the dead and wounded were everywhere. Crossing the Yalu, going deep into the hairless, traveling thousands of miles, lonely into a foreign country. In the enemy's territory, he fought hard for a day and a night, and finally broke the fortified city.
"If you have this city, the city is ruined. Tigers and wolves are all over the ground, and dangers lurk. Eight strong enemies, alone in a corner, there is no help outside, there is nothing to rely on inside. And you don't hesitate to get it hard-won, but indulge in lustful pleasures. The military order is given, and the three are blocked. The blood outside the city has not dried, everyone, don't be afraid, when the enemy comes, the new blood will cover the old blood? ”
When he opened his eyes, he was heartbroken and angry: "Every time I think of the current situation, I can't sleep all night, and I get up three or four times a night!" Deliberate and painstaking planning again and again. It's not for glory and wealth, but just to keep everyone safe, so that they can have a place to live in this troubled world. But what about you? But what about you! He seemed to be asking himself, and as if he was questioning the generals, "But what about you?" ”
He revealed his true feelings, and his words were deeply meaningful. The generals stood silent for a moment, and the difficulties after the defeat of Fengzhou reappeared one by one with Deng She's words. I can't help but feel related.
Chen Hu was the first to kneel down and prostrate himself on the ground to receive the order: "Please give the general an order." Among the generals, he thinks more about the future development, and usually thinks about when the Koreans will come, but he doesn't think about it so carefully. Deng Sheyi said that he felt that it was reasonable, and he changed his original mind and took the lead in obedience.
"Please give the order, General." Under Wenhua Guo, all knelt down and received orders in unison.
"Those who know me say I am worried, and those who don't know me say what I want." Deng She let out a long sigh and lowered his voice as if exhausted, "Everyone, I was going to lose my temper because of anxiety in my heart. Don't take it personally. We wait for us to work together to have a glimmer of life. ”
Looking at the people on the ground, Deng She's heart was heavy. He is well aware of the purge of military discipline, and this is only the beginning. Wait until you can breathe a little, and don't treat it painfully, but it won't work.
He jumped off the horse, helped everyone up, and gave orders: "The general order: Wen Huaguo, Chen Hu, and the three camps in the city will immediately accept the women in the camp, and the prostitutes in each camp are only allowed to use those who have no home and no relatives, with a limit of 100 people." The rest was handed over to the governor's office and sent home. Self-text, Chen, the following, hiding the private, cut!
"The general ordered: The sergeants of the three battalions have live livestock and poultry, buy them at a fair price, and each hand over the baggage of the battalion for unified management. General order: The soldiers of the three battalions, there are silk and satin, furniture and utensils to play, etc., longer than an inch, heavier than one tael, forbidden personal private collection, all handed over to the public inventory, buy at a low price. ”
