Chapter 342: Do we really want to accept the imperial court's edict?
"Alright guys."
Li Dezhen slowed down for a long time, and then looked at the high-level military officials under the stage and said: "Okay, this is the case, the county respects everyone, help everyone bear this infamy, I hope you don't live up to the hard work of the county, I still say the same thing, we eat the grain of the people of Lantian, we are the soldiers of the people of Lantian, we are guarding Lantian County, the meaning of our soldiers is to keep Lantian County from being attacked by foreign enemies, whether this foreign enemy is Zhang Xianzhong's rogue army, or the homeless, or someone else, As long as they don't want us to live a good life, they are our enemies and must be destroyed. ”
"I know you're in a bad mood to let you slaughter the homeless, and I'm not good, and I don't want to kill the homeless, but don't these homeless people kill them? If you don't kill him, you will take the Liukou into our Lantian County and kill our relatives and friends, and besides, it is not the Lantian Army who drove the homeless, but Zhang Xianzhong of the dog day, and this account should be counted on him. ”
"Finally, let me say a few more words, you should have seen it, we have a lot of grain in the grain depot, and there are big fat pigs, these things are all given to us by the people of Lantian, reward us soldiers who shed their blood in order to protect them, we ate other people's good food, ate other people's pork, and finally didn't protect people's people, then we don't have to live, find a rope to hang ourselves."
Li Dezhen stood up and said, "The meeting was adjourned." ”
After speaking, he left the conference room first, and at this time, the conference room was silent, Li Chaomeng looked left and right, got up, and left.
Both of them left, the others looked at each other, and someone said for a long time: "I think what the division commander said is right, we are soldiers in Lantian, and we are eating the military salary provided by the people of Lantian, and now Zhang Xianzhong, the king, is ready to attack my Lantian County with the homeless, if we sympathize with the homeless people and lose this copper money pass, then we will really be ashamed of the county and the 2.3 million people of Lantian." ”
"That's right, the situation in the world has collapsed to this point, no one is qualified to sympathize with others in this troubled world, we sympathize with the homeless, lose the city, the one who becomes the homeless is himself, the homeless is innocent, but the people of Lantian deserve it? We eat the rice of Lantian and drink the water of Lantian, if we harm the people because of sympathy, we can commit suicide to thank the world. ”
"Yes, Zhang Xianzhong drove the homeless people to death, he is not guilty, what are we guilty of, I didn't say it, my first brigade is willing to be the first to shoot at the homeless, this crime is on my first brigade, and I have a clear conscience."
"Hey, Lao Wang, why do you carry this crime, Lao Tzu's surname is Li, but the county is the county's own family, this kind of infamy county is willing to bear, I will carry it with the county honor, I didn't say it, this first shot was released by our third brigade."
"Hey, surnamed Li, you are the county respecter's family, Lao Tzu had a second-class merit in the Qingyu Defense War, and your kid was only a third-class merit at that time, why should you compare with me."
"Oh, it's more meritorious, in the later six major valley passes elimination battle, Lao Tzu is a first-class merit."
"Who isn't, what are you ......?"
"Alright, alright, stop arguing."
At this time, a peacemaker came out to reconcile.
"Two brothers, now we have passed this level, but the soldiers under him still need to do mental work, after all, our soldiers have never had a battle like this massacre of homeless people, and they need to do psychological construction, otherwise there will definitely be chaos, after you go back, you will personally go down to each company and platoon, and you must find your political commissar to help, in terms of psychological counseling, they are professional."
"Yes, yes, that's right, our Lantian good sons are not bad breeds when dealing with rogues, horse thieves, and even Tartars, but in the face of homeless people, they are likely to have mental obstacles."
The massacre of displaced people is a very difficult thing for an army, especially for a disciplined, ambitious, and pure army.
For example, the Lantian Army, since they became an army, they have been the people's soldiers, they are kind and righteous, so let them kill the homeless, they must have obstacles in their hearts.
But the current situation is like this, the beasts of this era like to drive the homeless people as cannon fodder when they fight, if the Lantian army can't overcome this, then in the face of other rogue troops in the future, they won't be able to fight.
So they had to pass this level, and they had to pass it.
And the reason why they are so entangled is also because of Li Chaosheng's education and Lantian policies, which led to the fact that Lantian's army is very kind, and it is incompatible with this era.
After all, things like massacring civilians, killing good and risking merits, robbing and slaughtering villages, are not difficult for any army in this era, such as the Liukou, such as the Ming army, such as the Tartars.
They look at the common people like pigs and dogs, killing them to make themselves profitable is not difficult for them at all, it is common for the rogues to massacre the homeless people on a large scale and rob the common people, so what if it doesn't happen that day?
The Ming army, except for Lu Xiangsheng's Tianxiong army, Sun Chuanting's Qin army, and even Hong Chengchou's Shaanxi army killing civilians is not a big deal, as for other troops, especially some armies with the nature of warlords, they really treat the people like pigs and dogs.
As for the Tartars, not to mention, the people of the Ming Dynasty are inferior to pigs and dogs to them, and they don't kill the heads of people who enter the customs.
And in this world, only the Lantian Army is an outlier, they really regard the people as people, not only as people, but also as relatives, which leads to the improvement of their moral standards, not to harm the people, not to harm the people, and the army and the people are one family.
So now they need such a complex psychological counseling to kill the homeless, of course, all this is what Li Chaosheng wants to see, Li Chaosheng likes these soldiers under him very much, although they may not be ruthless enough compared to the soldiers of this era, but Li Chaosheng prefers their kindness, their perseverance, and their bad heart and discipline.
Only such an army can be called an iron army, an army needed by the people of Lantian, and an army needed by Li Chaosheng, not an army with loose military discipline like Zhang Xianzhong.
The Tongqian Pass side was well prepared, the militia was reinforcing the city wall, the soldiers were receiving psychological counseling, and Zhang Xianzhong's army finally opened on the third day after a day of rest, a day of military mobilization, and a rush for food.
However, the first to open was Sun Kewang, Liu Wenxiu, and Ai Nengqi's army, each of whom had an army of 20,000, expelling 60,000 displaced people to Tongqian Pass, and they didn't even inform Li Dingguo's army during the whole process.
"Fix the country, fix the country."
Early in the morning, Wang Jiadong ran into Li Dingguo's tent, and Li Dingguo was still asleep at this time, sleeping soundly.
"Fix the country, fix the country."
Wang Jiadong woke up Li Dingguo, Li Dingguo rubbed his eyes and said, "What are you doing?" ”
Hearing this, Wang Jiadong said: "Dingguo, Sun Kewang and the army of the three of them have been pulled out, and we have not been notified at all, we can't be left behind, hurry up and get up." ”
Hearing this, Li Dingguo turned over and said: "If you didn't tell us, you didn't want to take us at all, since you don't want to take us, why should we go up, put a hot face on their cold buttocks, and when the time comes, they will be scared to think that we are going to compete with them." ”
Wang Jiadong said: "What's wrong, we are besieging Lantian from all over the world, and now it's just us, what's the matter?" When the time comes, the eight kings will ask again, how can we explain it? ”
"I know that they dumped us and ran away, and those who don't know think that we are cowardly and afraid of war, and when the time comes, there will be villains to sow discord, and the eight kings will ask what to do if they are guilty."
Wang Jiadong said anxiously to Li Dingguo, Li Dingguo heard this and said: "Anla, Anla, Jiadong, what is the relationship between us and Sun Kewang, how can the eight kings not know, but it was just his intentional arrangement, my father-in-law, likes to play the way of balance, you and I are too capable, he is not at ease, so he connived at Sun Kewang and the three of them to target me everywhere." ”
"But there are some things he can't do too much, after all, if we fall, Sun Kewang will not be able to control them, so he always likes to play the way of checks and balances, a static and moving, before it becomes a square circle, so Sun Kewang They do it, father-in-law, we don't have to argue, Sun Kewang They are not happy to take us, I don't want to follow them, sleep, notify down, the whole camp will continue to rest, and pull out the camp in the afternoon."
"This?"
Wang Jiadong looked at Li Dingguo hesitantly, Li Dingguo smiled and said: "Go quickly, he Sun Kewang doesn't want me to follow them to grab merit, and I don't want to follow them to drive out the displaced people and do that hurtful thing." ”
"Well, okay, I'll let you know."
Wang Jiadong said, turned around and left, Li Dingguo turned over and continued to sleep, not in a hurry, what a hurry to die.
At this time, Sun Kewang, Liu Wenxiu, and Ai Nengqi were slowly moving forward with the army, 60,000 Liukou elites drove Wuyang Wuyang, and 60,000 old and weak women and children, shouting and scolding, and drove forward with whips.
The 60,000 displaced people were in mourning, crying, and screaming.
At this time, these rogues drove away the people like driving a large animal, and if they did not want to go, they would be slaughtered with a knife, and if they walked slowly, they would be a whip, and it was really a cry, and all of them were treated like this, and only a few good-looking ones could be pulled by ox carts, and the reason for this was because of these women, they had to enjoy it at night, and they should not be tired.
As for military discipline, there is a bird military discipline.
"Big brother, let's go out without saying a word to the second child, and we won't be blamed by our father-in-law."
At this time, in the center of the army, Sun Kewang and Liu Wenxiu were riding horses, Ai Nengqi was lying on a carriage and said to Sun Kewang with some worry, Sun Kewang heard this and smiled: "Blame, blame what, blame Li Dingguo for acting obediently, unwilling to drive with the three of us?" ”
"Huh?"
Ai Nengqi looked confused when he heard this, obviously we didn't tell him, why did he act obediently?
Seeing that Ai Nengqi was so stupid and cute, Liu Wenxiu laughed and said: "Fourth, you are stupid, even if this matter is known to the father-in-law, the father-in-law blames it, the three of us said in unison that we told Li Dingguo, but Li Dingguo said that he was unwilling to go with the three of us, and Li Dingguo said that we didn't inform him, who do you say the father-in-law believes?" ”
Ai Nengqi blinked and said, "Of course, there are many believers." ”
"Isn't that the end of it? There are many of us, we have a reason, what are you afraid of. ”
Liu Wenxiu laughed and said, Ai Nengqi heard this and said, "Well, it's this reason." ”
But after a while, Ai Nengqi frowned again and said: "But it's not right, big brother, our attack on Lantian County this time is a desperate job, the three of us are in the front, and Li Dingguo is picking up the benefits in the back, we are too stupid." ”
Hearing this, Liu Wenxiu glanced at Sun Kewang, Sun Kewang rode a horse at this time and said: "Fourth, your head is not bright, as the first team, we will consume these 60,000 homeless people first, and our headquarters will not be on it, and when the homeless people are almost consumed, Li Dingguo should also arrive, and then we will say that we have fought several battles here, and the casualties are too great, and then we will hand it over to Li Dingguo." ”
"How can Li Dingguo refuse when he arrives, he can't refuse, he will take his own men and horses to attack, and when his men are almost consumed, our main force will rush up again and take Lantian County, so that we can exchange the least casualties for the greatest results."
Sun Kewang said with a smile, listening to Sun Kewang's calculations, Ai Nengqi swallowed his saliva and said: "Big brother, you are too bad, if you do this, the second child will not hate us to death?" ”
Sun Kewang laughed when he heard this: "Are you afraid that the second child will hate you?" ”
"I'm not afraid."
"Isn't that the end of it?"
"yes, hahaha......"
The three of them laughed, calculating why the second child was always so happy.
Zhang Xianzhong's camp, Zhang Xianzhong's deputy whispered in Zhang Xianzhong's ear, Zhang Xianzhong frowned when he heard this: "The boss took the third and fourth children, and opened without notifying the second child?" And took all the displaced people? ”
"Yes."
Zhang Xianzhong's brows furrowed even deeper when he heard this, and the deputy general said, "Do you want to order the eldest prince to reprimand them?" ”
Zhang Xianzhong raised his hand and said: "No need, the second child is stubborn and arrogant, the three eldest are all mediocre people, if you don't use some means, how can you beat the second child, well, don't worry about this matter, by the way, what is the situation in northern Shaanxi?" ”
Hearing this, the deputy general said: "The situation is not optimistic, King Chuang was besieged by Hong Chengchou and Sun Chuanting in Shijiawan in Suide, and broke through three times without coming out, and Lu Xiangsheng's Tianxiong army came from Shanxi, although the general Li Zicheng slowed down the pace, but with the combat effectiveness of Lu Xiangsheng's Tianxiong army, Li Zicheng could not drag on for long, and within a month, he would definitely be able to join Hong Chengchou and Sun Chuanting into an encirclement, if the encirclement was completed, then King Chuang would be defeated, and no one could save him." ”
Hearing this, Zhang Xianzhong frowned and said: "Hey, the general trend has gone, what can I do about it, by the way, where is Yang Sichang's envoy?" ”
When the deputy general heard this, he said: "I have already reached the border of Hubei, and I should come to us soon." ”
Zhang Xianzhong nodded, and then the deputy general hesitated for a moment and said, "Eight kings, do we really want to accept the imperial court's edict?" ”
