Chapter Seventy-Seven: Han Xin's Rule
"Big brother, this time to defeat Qin Bing, Han Xin has worked hard and made great achievements, and big brother should reward those who have merit. Xiang Zhuang said indignantly.
"I have my own measure in rewards and punishments, and you don't need to say more. Xiang Yu said coldly. He looks down on those who have no backbone in his life, how can a manly man stand up to the sky, how can he be humiliated by his crotch, how can a person like Han Xin, who has no manhood at all, be reused.
"General Yu, Han Xin is both wise and brave, he is a rare general, if it weren't for his dedication this time, how could we capture the city so smoothly, please reuse Han Xin?" Ling'er's green and smart eyes also showed a look of expectation.
"Okay, let's promote him to be the captain of the guard!" Xiang Yu said impatiently, thinking that his little ability is less than one-tenth of my Xiang Yu, how capable he is, first be the captain and then see.
"Thank you for the young general's support, Han Xin is just worried about the general?" Han Xin's voice became sonorous and powerful, and there was a hint of melancholy on his pale face.
"Worried about me?" Xiang Yu was surprised and disdainful.
"The anti-Qin princes are currently obedient to General Xiang on the surface, but have the generals ever thought about internal and external troubles?
This rhetorical question was completely unexpected by Xiang Yu, and he couldn't help but pause and said, "What is internal trouble, what is external trouble?"
"Not to mention that the main force of the Qin army, Zhang Han, was not damaged, and the fleeing Sima Xin was not a good type, the mana was strong, and the treacherous was abnormal, this escape will definitely collect and disperse the Qin soldiers to continue to recover the city to resist our army, and our army slaughtered a city every time it was fought, the soldiers acted recklessly, did all evil, the people were displaced, and there were many complaints. Han Shin made an impassioned statement.
Everyone was silent when they heard this, and Xiang Yu was also silent for a moment, he didn't think about these questions in his heart, and thought about it: "Han Shizhong's words have part of the truth, the external troubles are true, but the internal worries can't be talked about, I never thought that I had to rely on the princes who saw the wind and steered the rudder, it was better to have it, and it was better if there was not, as for the soldiers who fought to the death, shed blood and sacrificed, it is also a reward for them to enjoy it wantonly, those Qin people should be killed, we are just paying for the blood debt." β
Han Xin heard that although Xiang Yu was proud, he didn't have much ambition, he just wanted revenge, so it was better to provoke him and say loudly: "Dare to ask the general whether he has the world in mind, or only the Chu State?" Han Xin dared to persuade the general that the general must have strict military discipline and clear rewards and punishments, and must not act recklessly, and that the monarch must be of the same heart and mind with the people, so that he can live and die together, and there is no danger. Otherwise, the general's battle against Qin will be more difficult, and the resistance will be more intense. β
For the first time, Xiang Yu's face was red and white for a while, this Han Xin didn't have a little sycophancy, and he dared to teach him a lecture openly, he had always been unruly, contemptuous of those vulgar and humble people, and even more contemptuous of Han Xin's extremely humble behavior in the past, if it wasn't for the chaos that forced him, he didn't bother to listen to him at all.
The more I thought about it, the anger in my heart rushed up, and I said angrily: "Hungry boy, I know how to lead troops, and I know how to fight, I don't need you to teach me." The Qin army, as well as those Qin people who rebelled against me, are my mortal enemies, if I can't kill them all, it will be difficult to eliminate the hatred in my heart, and I will be a manly husband in vain, and I will rely on real skills to fight, and the winner will be the king, and the loser will be the king!
Han Xin secretly complained, he just provoked him a little, but he didn't expect that he not only insisted on going his own way, but also became angry, and he was even more disgusted with him Han Xin, obviously he said everything from the bottom of his heart, even if there is no merit, there is hard work, why is this?
"Big brother is angry, big brother is angry! Han Xin didn't mean to offend you, he just hoped that the eldest brother would restrain his subordinates more in the future and treat the people well. Xiang Zhuang hurriedly persuaded.
Suddenly, a messenger from outside came to report, it turned out that Xiang Liang heard that although Dong'e had defeated the Qin army, he ran away from Sima Xin, Xiang Liang urged Xiang Yu to unite with Qi army Tian Rong, and Zhao army sent troops to chase and kill Sima Xin's remnants of the Qin army.
'The last general is willing to take the guilt and make meritorious contributions, but the soldiers led by the last general must obey my military orders, so that I can be sure of defeating Sima Xin. Han Xin's face calmed down, he wanted to prove that his way of governing the army was correct, he was indeed a talent, and he hoped that Xiang Yu could really be reused by him.
Xiang Yu was taken aback again, and looked at Han Xin again with proud eyes, "Then tell me about your military orders?"
Han Xin glanced at Xiang Yu, he couldn't see his joy and anger for a while, and then looked at Xiang Zhuang, Xiang Zhuang was looking at him with admiration, and he suddenly had courage.
Ran said proudly: "This is a new military law specially added by me for some problems in the current Chu army, whether it is a meritorious general or an ordinary soldier, if you dare to violate it, you will be punished according to military law, as follows:
First, it is strictly forbidden for the army to seize the spoils of war without permission before victory, and those who violate it will be beheaded.
Second, the drum does not enter, the gold does not stop, the flag cannot be raised, the flag is not subdued, this is called the back of the army, and the offender is beheaded.
Third, the weapons are unprepared, the swords and guns are unfavorable, and the flag is withered, which is called bullying the army, and the offender is beheaded.
Fourth, abusing the people, forcing ** women, burning and killing looters.
Fifth, after victory, those who are not greedy for money will be rewarded according to their merits, and those who swallow it will be beheaded.
Sixth, after the first round of the attack was frustrated, the army must obey the order and launch a second attack at all costs, and those who violate the order will be beheaded.
Seventh, after the army has retreated, when the order is received to continue the march, it is still necessary to go all out, and those who cower and retreat will be beheaded. β
............
After hearing this, Ling'er clapped her hands and said with a bright smile: "Brother Yu, the military law formulated by Han Xin is really good, please give Brother Yu permission, with these military orders, we will definitely be invincible." β
She really couldn't bear to let the innocent people be slaughtered, the bloody scenes made her heart tremble, she was worried that there was no solution, she always felt that the problem of depression in her heart, she didn't want to be easily found by Han Xin to find the fundamental way to solve it, her heart couldn't help but move slightly, a sudden feeling of enlightenment came to her heart, she looked at Han Xin excitedly, at this time his pale face was a little less bloody because of the injury, but his eyes were very firm, Ling'er instantly saw hope, maybe he was a real peerless general, he was the person he should assistγ
Xiang Zhuang was also excited after listening to Han Xin's words, and he said excitedly: "Big brother, Han Xin must be a talent given to us by God, please be sure to reuse him." β
At this time, everyone's eyes were focused on Xiang Yu, and they saw that he was silent, but the disapproving expression on his face was very obvious.
