Chapter 113: Through the Song Dynasty's Rectification of Military Discipline
Chapter 113: Crossing the Song Dynasty to Defend Luoyang
In response to what happened that night, Fang Yu thought to himself, in the dignified General's Mansion, the two little thieves were able to come and go freely at night, if the Liao army of the third watch came in from outside the city wall in the middle of the night, then what would it be?
That night, he enumerated ten standards of punishment and reward, and prepared to make a "surprise attack" on the soldiers defending the city.
When I went up to the tower, I saw that some of the soldiers were leaning back, some lying on their sides, some lying on their backs, and there were already several empty wine jars on the ground.
Is this how they defend Luoyang? Is this the kind of virtue that the soldiers who defend Luoyang? The lives of the people of the whole city are actually in the hands of such soldiers!
"Where is the leader of the city guards?" Fang Yu shouted.
The wind, "whirring", blew like a file on his face, painful and painful, and swallowed his words in an instant.
Although he has crossed over, at this moment, he is a general of Zhengyipin, protecting the city and defending the city, and the responsibility is heavier than Mount Tai.
How could these twenty or thirty soldiers with good wine be able to withstand the offensive of the Liao army? If the enemy attacked the city at this moment, the Song army would inevitably be defeated, and it was the people who suffered after all.
"But to make the dragon city fly, do not teach Humadu Yin Mountain. In the cold wind, he stared at the dark night sky, as if his eyes could pass through the boundless night and reach the imperial palace of Liao.
"As long as I'm here, don't wait for half a step to break into Luoyang City!"
A basket of rhetoric is not as good as a practical action. If we want to accomplish our goals, we must first straighten out military discipline.
He fetched a bucket of cold water and poured it on the drunken and sleeping soldiers. The soldier was woken up by freezing with an "ah", and immediately scolded.
Fang Yu stepped forward and said angrily, "Is this how you defend the city?"
The soldier rolled and got up from the ground, and when he saw that it was the general who protected the city, he was so frightened that his face was like dirt and he fell to his knees.
"Wake them all up, and gather them all here!"
After the soldiers were drunk and hazy, supporting each other and concentrating, Fang Yu already had an extra whip in his hand.
"Whoever dares to hide will be killed!
After Fang Yu finished speaking, when the soldier stood still, he suddenly whipped over, the soldier screamed, most of the wine woke up, and then the whip was pumped, the soldier screamed again, and woke up completely, the third whip passed, he "poofed" and knelt on the ground, kowtowing again and again and begging for mercy: "The big ones spare their lives, and the little ones don't dare anymore." "
Fang Yu took the whip and called another soldier to stand up, and also gave him three whips. It wasn't until all the soldiers had finished fighting that he asked, "Answer me, do you have parents, brothers and sisters?"
One after another, the soldiers replied, "Yes." "
"Do you know how many families there are in Luoyang City? If the Liao army invades the city at this moment, how many families will be separated from their wives? Among them, there are also your relatives!"
"The Liao army didn't come again...... A daring soldier muttered.
Fang Yu didn't say a word, he stepped forward with a kick, and then, "Papapa" whipped him ten times, hitting him with his skin and flesh, and he fell to the ground and groaned.
"From today onwards, first, those who commit the following crimes: 10 lashes for the first time, and no punishment for the second time; second, those who do not observe military discipline shall be punished with 20 lashes for the first time and death for the second time; third, those who do not report the delay of military aircraft if they know about it: they will not be punished for killing; fourth, those who fight with each other: they will not be punished with death; and fifth, those who gather a crowd to make trouble: they will be killed...... "
Fang Yu said the ten "don't talk about killing" in one breath, and then listed the reward standards of the ten. He handed down these two standards and asked everyone to memorize them.
At the same time, he asked the soldiers to choose two leaders to defend the city, one for the day and one for the night, and rotated every seven days.
He asked the two soldiers to write a record of the daily defense of the city and a record of the handover.
At the same time, he also asked the soldiers to select a military attache to be responsible for the soldiers' daily drills, and to keep a record of the daily drills.
He then asked the soldiers to choose two leaders of the city, one for patrolling during the day and one for patrolling at night.
"Obey orders, obey commands, and if anyone dares to disobey, he will be whipped the first time, and killed the second time. If the leader bends the law for personal gain, once it is verified, the nine clans will be affected!"
"Do you understand?"
"Yes, sir!"
"Also, the three of you, since you are the leaders, the rewards at the end of the year are naturally much richer than the others. However, if a violation is found, the punishment will naturally be doubled. Did you hear me clearly?"
"Yes, sir!"
"If the people below have any problems, they can solve them with your leader, and if the leader can't solve them, they can report to me. "
"Thank you, sir!"
"If you understand, let's do it!" Looking at the darkness outside the city, Fang Yu waved his hand.
After arranging all this, the night was deeper, and the wind was stronger.
When he will be able to go back, he doesn't know, if he can never go back, maybe Luoyang will be his last home.
Just as he was standing in the castle tower in a daze, staring into the distance, a piece of clothing was gently draped over him, and a soft and soft body gently hugged him from behind.
"Don't be angry, okay?" Yu Yan's gentle voice sounded in his ears.
"No. Fang Yu patted her jade hand gently.
Yu Yan said softly: "Go back to sleep, it's windy outside, be careful of the cold." "
He gently took her hand and accidentally touched the strangulation marks on her wrist, and Yu Yan instinctively shrank back.
"I'm sorry, it's all my fault. Fang Yu immediately put the clothes draped on his body for Yu Yan, and at the same time hugged her * tightly.
"I don't blame you. None of us are allowed to mention it in the future. "
"Hmm. Let's go, go back and rub some medicine on you. "
After a pause, he asked softly, "What about the children?"
"I'm already asleep. Yu Yan leaned on her husband's shoulder, although the moon tonight was hidden in thick clouds, her heart was incomparably bright.
Walking on the street, Yu Yan saw groups of soldiers, divided into several groups, each group of three to four people, the front one carrying a lantern, holding his head high, and the back holding a spear, patrolling back and forth.
"Hello Lord Fang! Hello Mrs. Fang!" When the leader saw it, he immediately stepped forward to greet him.
"Recently, the Liao army is about to move, and the spies in front say that the Liao army intends to plot against our Great Song Dynasty, so you need to be more vigilant!"
"Yes, sir!"
"You really look like a general. Yu Yan said with a smile.
It's just that this general didn't protect his beloved woman, and he almost regretted it for life. As he spoke, he hugged her tighter.
"I'm just doing my duty as a wife, but I can't get a good night's sleep for the man I love. "
Fang Yu was stunned for a moment, where did she start saying this, it was obviously her own negligence, but now she said sorry to herself in turn.
"To be honest, at that moment, I was desperate, I thought I was dead. Even if you can't die, this life is over. Luckily, there are two babies. "
"I'm not at home all this time, what are they doing now?"
Speaking of the two children, Yu Yan's words gushed endlessly. After breakfast, reading and writing, the two children spent another hour, and then went to the master, Yuanyuan liked piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and just liked to study medicine, they had one thing in common, that is, they liked to read.
Fang Yu nodded and said, "It's a good thing that I like to read." But don't forget, they are going back to the modern society, try not to be too disconnected from the children of the modern society, otherwise, we will have time to worry in the future. "
"But what if they want to go back and see Grandpa?"
"Before we get a thorough grasp of the Black Wood Box, I think it's better to forget it. If you hula go back to the Jurassic, it won't be good. "
"Jurassic, do you want to see dinosaurs?" Yu Yan laughed. Like a flower, blooming in the night sky.
She looked around, on such a cold day, the soldiers were still patrolling, although the duty was also hard enough. Especially in the beginning of this period, she could feel that everyone was still afraid of General Zhengyipin, and they were not completely convinced.
She asked her husband about the number of soldiers on the night vigil and the handover time, and at the fifth watch of the next day, while her husband and children were practicing, she ordered the people to buy meat and come back, boil it into a pot of broth, bring bowls, and transport it to the carriage to the gate of the city.
At the time of the shift change, she beckoned everyone to warm up with a bowl of broth.
There is still broth to drink at night guarding the city, which has never happened before!
Everyone, look at me, I look at you, although the stomach is hungry, no one dares to be the first to step forward and serve a bowl.
"My lord!" the leader respectfully asked for a peace.
As soon as Yu Yan turned around, she saw Fang Yu standing behind her with a smile.
"The concubine has seen Lord Fang. Yu Yan smiled and made a wave.
"Lady, please get up. Fang Yu gently lifted her, turned to the soldier and said, "The night is cold, the brothers who defend the city have worked hard, this is the broth that Mrs. Fang specially made for everyone, come, everyone drink a bowl and taste it!"
When the soldiers heard the adult's words, they ran over suspiciously, and the leader took the lead in drinking a bowl, and couldn't help shouting: "It's delicious!"
Sure enough, everyone lined up in an instant.
"Hahaha, come on, let's drink together!" Yu Yan smiled, and every time she filled a bowl of broth, she said "hard work".
Looking at the smiles on their faces, Yu Yan coded: "In the future, every morning at this time, I will make a pot of soup in a different way, so that the brothers who guard the city at night can warm up and then go home, so that those who go to work will have more strength to go on duty."
"Thank you, sir, thank you, madam!" the soldiers smiled happily, "it feels like coming home." "
Fang Yu hugged his fists and said: "Yes, we are a family, do your things well, my wife and I represent the people of the city, thank you!"
Yu Yan smiled and said, "You are protecting the safety of the people in the city, and it is natural for the slave family to take care of everyone." "
When they met such a good officer, the soldiers immediately said: "I am willing to smear my liver and brain for the adults!"
Isn't this how communication between people is like this? How good it would be to exchange one person's sincerity for another's sincerity, without so much intrigue!
