Chapter Seventy-Five: Written Notes
The soldiers cleaned up the battlefield as fast as they could, and set fire to the camp.
Then they retreated to Laiwu City, as for Gou Chun's rout, some chose to continue to flee to the top of the mountain or deep in the woods, and some chose to roll down the cliff directly, maybe they were lucky enough to survive.
But the vast majority of Gou Chun's corporal soldiers laid down their arms and chose to surrender after Gou Chun was caught.
And Liu Tai withdrew to Laiwu with more than 2,000 strong men and more than 2,000 wounded captives under Gou Xi.
Liu Tai naturally didn't hold any banquets to celebrate today's victory, after all, this war will not end because of Gou Chun's defeat, on the contrary, this is just the beginning.
However, when Liu Tai returned to the city, he bought most of the local pigs and sheep and slaughtered them for the soldiers.
Liu Tai knows very well that the promises he made, especially the promises he made to the soldiers, must be fulfilled, if he can't complete it, then he will come to the battlefield in the future, and there will inevitably be a time to backfire on him.
Today's soldiers naturally feel that the food is much better, the fragrant lard sauce bibimbap, the delicious lamb bone and cabbage soup, and the oil stars floating in it are all delicacies that they can't think of!
With the defeat of Gou Chun's army today, eating these fragrant meats suddenly had great psychological satisfaction for the soldiers who licked the blood from the knife edge.
The morale of their soldiers has risen again, and they are even looking forward to Gou Xi's arrival!
Especially Ge Xin and one of the five hundred people who survived this battle, Liu Tai rewarded each of them with a pig's trotter or sheep's trotter, but unfortunately he didn't have any wine in his hand, otherwise maybe even the wine would have been enough for these people.
Because they're going to get some sleep next, and at least the war won't have anything to do with them for a short time.
Of course, the soldiers and commanders were enjoying the brief celebration brought by the victory after the war, and Liu Tai came to the military historians, as well as Meng Dong and Wang Jingru who had sweat on their foreheads.
At this moment, Liu Tai's face was a little dignified, and he didn't have the slightest joy of winning the battle, and said in a deep voice, "The war that belongs to the soldiers has come to an end, but the war that belongs to us has just begun!" ”
"From now on, our army must have a rule that must be implemented from beginning to end, and that is to give preferential treatment to prisoners.
The food was according to the standards of the county soldiers, and after the war, it was necessary for the medical battalion to help our wounded before they were rescued. ”
Liu Tai's eyes swept over everyone and said, "Which of you has an opinion?" ”
"Me!" Master Xi Bo took a step forward and said quite seriously.
A few people around gave Xi Zhubo a look, Liu Tai has a sick brain, and you didn't know it on the first day!
What if you promise it, if you really carry it out, you can see if the soldiers below will carry it out.
If it can't be implemented, General Liu will naturally withdraw this regulation!
"Isn't my order right!" Liu Tai looked at Master Xi's hard bone, and he always stood up for unpleasant things.
"This matter needs to be informed to the whole army, and it needs to be recorded, if the general has no reasonable reason, the soldiers are still fighting to the death one second, and the next second these prisoners are allowed to get food from the county soldiers, which will definitely make the soldiers feel confused and resentful, and the army will definitely mutiny after a long time."
Master Xi Bo said without hesitation, "If I know that the general is wrong and don't admonish, how can I put pen to paper!" ”
Liu Tai glanced at Master Xi Bo with some surprise when he heard this, and he really didn't expect Master Xi Bo to say such a thing.
However, Liu Tai pressed his temples, and I have to say that he is thinking simple.
Originally, I thought that if I gave an order now, the soldiers would support it unconditionally.
But no, the soldiers under their command are human beings, thinking people, and this is the warrior they can fight without hesitation at some point.
But in the same way, when their own orders seem illogical, at least to them, the soldiers below will instinctively resist.
Because they are thoughtful, they follow themselves not for a bite to eat, but feel that following themselves can have a chance for self-realization, or rather, they are shaped into what they expect.
In this way, if he has defeated Gou Xi and completely captured the soldiers, then he will propose a way to treat the prisoners preferentially, or choose the soldiers from among them, Liu Tai believes that these people will not object.
But now, although Gou Chun has been defeated, the whole battle has not completely ended, and at this time, he proposed to treat the prisoners preferentially, and the soldiers would not agree.
It's very simple, because at this time, the food that these captives ate in their stomachs and the medical treatment they received was originally a benefit for these soldiers.
This kind of encroachment on resources will definitely cause a backlash from the soldiers.
Liu Tai took a deep breath and said seriously, "When the orders I have conflict with your thinking, let's see if my position has changed!" ”
When everyone present heard Liu Tai's words, they couldn't help but glance at each other, and finally their eyes fell on Master Xi's body.
After all, it doesn't matter if you don't understand, just look at how Master Xi answers.
And Master Xi Bo said neither humbly nor arrogantly, "Hasn't the general's position changed?!" ”
"My position has always been the same, recovering the Han dynasty and unifying the world!" Liu Tai looked at Master Xi's extremely firm answer.
Master Xi Bo said with a little skepticism, "But if you treat the captives well, will you be able to restore the Han dynasty and dominate the world!?" ”
"They are indeed soldiers of the Jin Court, and many of them are still elite!" Liu Tai remembered the appearance of them fighting on the mountains, and I have to say that it was precisely because of this that Liu Tai wanted to treat them well, subdue them, and cattle them.
Liu Tai said seriously, "But because of this, we must treat them well, promote the recovery of the Han family, and accelerate the unification of the world!" ”
Liu Tai didn't wait for anyone else's words, but continued,
"We are at odds with the Jin court, but we have to figure out who is the enemy and who is the friend.
Who do you think our enemy is? Who are our potential friends? ”
"The Sima clan and the family that followed him should be our enemies, and our friends should be the families from all over the world who are willing to join us in the crusade against the Sima clan!"
Master Xi Bo thought about it and gave Liu Tai an answer, and the other military historians thought about it for a while and nodded.
After all, the Jin Dynasty is now supported by the family, and even many people in military history are inextricably linked to the family.
When Liu Tai heard this, he chuckled lightly, and couldn't help but say, "What about the people?" What about the soldiers? And even all of you?! ”
Master Xi couldn't help but be stunned when he heard Liu Tai's words, and the military historians present were in a trance at this time.
They didn't expect that Liu Tai would ask such three questions again and again at this time.
"Yourself...... Is it a potential friend of General Liu? "Military historians are in a trance and do not understand.
After all, for them, they never thought about their status, or maybe they just wrote their military histories with peace of mind, and then after they got married, they copied a copy of these military histories for their own family heirlooms.
Since then, he has been able to lick his face and say that he is a poet and book heirloom, and even a scholarly family.
And Liu Tai looked at these people in a trance, and understood that these people really never thought that they themselves were also at the bottom, a force that was incompatible with the wealthy family!
Liu Tai continued, "The Jin court is the Jin court of the family, the Jiupin Zhongzheng system is the official election system of the family, and the land occupation system is the family of the family's land occupation system.
And how much can I still read, but what about the people who really live at the bottom, and the soldiers who are forcibly conscripted into soldiers!
Compared with us, the Jin Ting, who bullies the weak and fears the hard, is afraid that the encroachment on them is the most serious!
I believe that the lower the people, the more absolutely hated the Jin Court, and the anger and flames against the Jin Court were nurtured in their hearts.
Aren't such people our potential allies? Aren't they the force we should fight for!
And this force, Jin Ting ignored, we can't ignore it! ”
When Master Xi heard Liu Tai's words, he bowed very solemnly to Liu Tai and said: "I have no objection to the policy of preferential treatment of prisoners, but it is not easy to educate them, does General Liu have any ideas?" ”
"Yes!" Liu Tai heard Xi's words and said, "First of all, the medical camp, you do your best to help them."
Because they are not their own people now, it is because we have not yet influenced them, and they do not know who they are.
But although they are Jin people now, with the emancipation of their minds, they finally understand that they are actually Han people! ”
"No!" Meng Dong and Wang Rujing replied without pressure, because as doctors, they originally wanted to save people.
Liu Tai nodded and continued, "The second step is to go out of the military history and empathize with them.
I believe that in this world, the hemp rope is broken in detail, and the bad luck is only looking for the miserable, and the beauty of the family is the same, but the suffering of the people is different.
Therefore, you need to guide them to speak out about their suffering of being persecuted by wealthy families and families.
If you don't have it yourself, you don't need to talk about it, go to your tun and ask who has been seized by the wealthy family, and even caused a ruin in the family, you can let them come and tell it in person.
Only sincerity can be exchanged for sincerity, this matter does not need to be cheating, only sincerity and sincerity immediately!
After gaining emotional resonance, we will tell that we are the army of the Han Dynasty, and we want to liberate the vast number of people of the Jin court from the painful slavery of the Jin court.
Let the people be the same as when they were in the Han Dynasty, become a good family with land and property, from the text can guide the country, from the military can serve the Han, from now on the old have something to rely on, the young have to raise, the strong have a precaution, the weak have a hold, each give full play to his talents, each show its ability.
It's not that everyone can bully you, and even try your best may not be able to live in this world.
Such a world is definitely the wrong world, so we need to overthrow it together and re-establish a new Great Han! ”
At this moment, Liu Tai is quite excited, and in the face of these military historians, he does not see half of the stage fright, but does his best to depict the big man in his mind.
These military historians glanced at each other, and they were extremely sure that at least the Han in the "Book of Han" was not as beautiful as Liu Tai's mouth, and only the Datong society in the history books could be as brilliant as Liu Tai said!
Master Xi was silent, and picked up the pen and wrote at this time.
The surrounding military histories looked at the attitude of Master Xi, and for a while I didn't know whether to sigh that Lord Xi was brave and straightforward, or that Lord Xi was thin and soft, and he could be so positive when he should be on the back.
Liu Tai was also a little curious at the moment, and said to Master Xi, "Master Xi, what are you recording?" ”
Master Xi said calmly and calmly, "The general has the ambition of the bird, Xi has the heart of the book, and today and now he personally records the wish of the general, which is to overthrow the old Jin court and establish a new Han Dynasty, and from then on the Jin people will become the Han people, the cultivator has his field, the weaver has his sword, the writer has his position, the warrior has his honor, the old have something to rely on, the young have to raise, and the people have their talents and show their abilities, right?" ”
Master Xi silently stopped his pen, and his expression seemed to say, the note has been established!
Why does it feel like there's a lot of weird stuff in it?
The heart of the reader is so dirty, how does Lao Tzu feel as if he has been set up!
Liu Tai complained in his heart, but looking at the gazes of the military historians towards him, he couldn't say out loud at this time,
"No, no, I think some of the content in it should be changed...... "Do you still want to lose face?!"
Therefore, Liu Tai said without hesitation: "Exactly!" What Master Xi remembered is exactly what I said! ”
Master Xi didn't say much, and after writing it, he solemnly saluted Liu Tai, and then said, "How bright the general's heart is, just like the night and the moon illuminate the direction, the general has this great heart, and our military history is naturally willing to live and die together!" ”
When the surrounding military histories saw this scene, they also went from sparse to unanimous, "Our military histories are willing to live and die together!" ”
Although the surrounding military history actually doesn't quite understand, why it is said that life and death follow each other.
But as a subordinate, even if you are not smart enough, you always know that you should say good things to you!
However, Master Xi Bo came back to his senses and spoke again, "But how can we verify that these soldiers are truly willing to submit to us? ”
"There is no need to submit to us!" Liu Tai shook his head and said, "Gou Xi will come over soon, even if they turn against us immediately, we don't dare to use them."
So I told them truthfully, because their families and friends are all in Qingzhou, so we won't let them join us, or even appear on the battlefield, otherwise they will inevitably be hated by Gou Xi.
Since we want to have a heart-to-heart relationship with them, we must first see them as human beings and understand their concerns.
If they're really willing to help, they'll just be able to carry the heavy load underneath.
If you don't want to do it, just rest in the cell and don't cause trouble, and when we finish fighting Gou Xi, we'll let them go back!" ”
"Are we going to let them go back?!" Hearing Liu Tai's words, everyone present couldn't help but show an incredible look.
"Naturally, we want to let them go back, if we don't let them go back, how can we defeat Gou Xi and return to Qingzhou!"
