In the military camp, thousands of Yulin Army soldiers quickly gathered on the playground.

"Gongyi, the team has been assembled, let's set off."

Because Jiang Qin became the temporary highest commander of the Yulin Army, Xu Tu, Hou Cheng, and Su Fei reported to him after receiving the reports from the commanders below, waiting for him to issue the order to attack.

"Wait a moment, I have something to say to the soldiers."

Jiang Qin slightly cupped his fists and apologized to several colleagues. He felt that Ji Shu's temporary appointment to him was to unify the command in the north of the city. If someone else was on duty tonight, it would not be his turn to be the commander-in-chief.

Jiang Qin walked past the slightly confused people and walked to the front. Using the scattered fire pots scattered on the playground, he could only see a dense mass of dark figures. Jiang Qin took a deep breath and spoke.

"I was once a slave of a noble family and never studied. So when the general asked my husband to teach in the military camp, I was very grateful, but also puzzled."

There are some terms in the army that can be confusing. The "general" mentioned here does not refer to the official position. Because military positions above the commander level can be called generals, so in an established army, subordinates sometimes use the title "general".

"General" is used to refer to one's own generals. The "general" Jiang Qin mentioned here refers to Ji Shu.

"Why does the general want his officers to study? I have never understood this question."

The soldiers looked at each other in confusion. They also didn't understand the problem, and they didn't understand why Jiang Qin talked about it before going to the battlefield.

Looking at the blank eyes, Jiang Qin continued.

"Until the 'Lijia Village Robbery Incident' a few days ago, the general took us to apologize to the people of a village."

"Almost half of the brothers were present at the time. I believe the rest of the brothers had not seen it with their own eyes or had heard about it."

After scanning the crowd and seeing that everyone was a little solemn, Jiang Qin pointed at his eyes and shouted.

"The scene at that time still seems to be happening in front of my eyes. Only then did I understand that the general asked us to study to prevent us from becoming real beasts!"

What is the difference between beasts and humans?

When they are hungry, they will plunder, and when they are in heat, they will look for females. The blood makes them excited and crazy. These are wild beasts, following the instinctive desires of life and living wantonly.

People are rational and they can distinguish what is right and what is wrong.

Generals generally hope that their soldiers will be as ferocious as beasts when facing the enemy, but they don't care whether they have really turned into beasts.

Especially in the battlefield, a place where life and death are life-and-death, people often lose their last trace of rationality.

They don't know if they will still be alive tomorrow. If they need food, they will rob them. If they see money, they will take it. If they don't like it, they will kill it. If there is a beautiful woman, they will sleep with it. What's wrong with being a beast?

"The general hopes that we can read the books of sages and have dignity, pride and bottom line as human beings!"

Jiang Qin's voice filled the entire playground, touching every soldier slightly.

"Let me ask you, who allowed the slaves of aristocratic families who participated in the rebellion to enjoy the treatment of normal soldiers?"

Without hesitation, the soldiers answered in unison.

"It's the general!"

Jiang Qin nodded slightly and asked again.

"And who personally makes the training plan and practices with us day and night?"

The soldiers continued to answer.

"It's the general!"

Jiang Qin sighed with some emotion.

"Not only did the General not treat us unfairly because of our past, but he personally assigned us the title of 'Habayashi Army' in front of the Lord and placed high hopes on us!"

That's right, the General has nothing to say to our Yulin Army.

Whether it was the soldiers below or Xu Tu, Hou Cheng, and Su Fei beside them, they all nodded. All the soldiers were convinced of Ji Shu.

"But other armies probably don't think so. They often look at us with strange eyes. You all know that, right?"

"You all know it!"

Jiang Qin couldn't help but recall the look in Xu Sheng's eyes. It was definitely not the look he was looking at his comrades in arms. It was full of suspicion and contempt.

Such a look made Jiang Qin feel humiliated!

Jiang Qin couldn't help but roared angrily.

No! Not only Xu Sheng, but also all the Jiangdong armies were probably the same. He believed that many soldiers had felt his humiliation.

This is also the case. Faced with Jiang Qin's questions, many people couldn't help but tighten their swords and guns.

"Why?"

"Why?"

After asking this question twice, Jiang Qin glanced at everyone and continued.

"Because the Lord promulgated the "One Tax Law" and "Qi Min Law" in order to allow tenant farmers and slaves to have enough to eat and live like a human being! But many of us are afraid of change, shrinking our heads, and just continuing as usual

Follow the instructions of the master of the noble family, do evil when you need to do evil, and rebel when you need to rebel."

"I remember that my husband once said this when he was giving a lecture, 'If you treat me as a countryman, I will repay you as a countryman! If you treat me as a passerby, I will repay you as a passerby! If you treat me as a stranger, I will treat you as an enemy.

Pay it back!'. The Lord treats us as if he has given us a new life, but what about us?"

Jiang Qin slapped the armor on his chest hard, making a clanking sound.

Unable to answer, most of the soldiers were private soldiers from aristocratic families who surrounded and killed Sun Ce. Many of them gritted their teeth and lowered their heads in shame.

Not only those soldiers, Jiang Qin also remembered his past.

When the young master told him to break someone else's legs, he went to break other people's legs; when the young master told him to snatch a woman, he went to bring the woman to the young master.

I used to just do whatever others told me. Even if I felt it was wrong, I was still afraid of changing.

Weak and blindly controlled by others, the justice, truth, passion and blood in our hearts only live in dreams.

What kind of feeling is this?

The former weakness and drifting seemed to have turned into the most violent fuel, burning myself.

Shame, regret, humiliation, pain, my heart was burned by indescribable fire.

"You treat me with kindness and righteousness, and I repay it with a sword. However, my lord still treats us with kindness and righteousness!"

"I would like to ask all brothers, isn't such a king and such a general worthy of our death?"

Seeing everyone raising their heads and looking at him with burning eyes, they seemed to have found the answer.

Jiang Qin pursed his lips, pulled out his sword, and shouted at the soldiers.

"I am issuing a military order in front of the general. Anyone who takes a step back from the front of the formation will be immediately beheaded!"

"But I won't kill you. It's not that I'm lenient, but that I don't have the time!"

"I will step forward to kill the enemy and fight to the death without retreating!"

"Cowardly people can run away if they want."

"If you can only tremble in front of the enemy."

"If you don't have regret in your heart."

"If you still have the nerve to go back to Jiangdong to see your parents, wives and children."

"Run away if you want!"

"Brothers who are not afraid of death, fight to the death with me today, and let the other brothers of Jiangdong Army see the backbone of my Yulin Army! Let those who want to laugh at us shut up!"

At this moment, Xu Tu, Hou Cheng, and Su Fei were truly convinced of Jiang Qin. They understood that Ji Shu's appointment of Jiang Qin was probably not as simple as a temporary decision.

Especially Su Fei, he felt something completely different from the Han army. His blood was surging, and he understood why Gan Ning was so enthusiastic and admired Jiangdong when he persuaded him to surrender. Like all the soldiers, he raised his arms and shouted.
