Chapter 5687 Veterans' National Protection
Liu Fan said coldly: "You stupid cow, you are just chopping people and drinking and eating meat all day long. These things are useless to tell you. Anyway, with Brother Jinu always protecting you, you don't have to worry about the days after you get rid of your armor and return to the field, or you don't have to consider the future of your children and grandchildren. But no matter how capable Brother Jinu is, you can't protect all the old brothers. Even Xie Tingyun, can't you protect Jinu in the end? Your brother has more than one iron cow and one A Shou, which can be said to be a friend of life and death. There are only eight thousand brothers that must be protected. Brother Jinu, if you don't have power or soldiers, how can you take care of their interests?"
Liu Yu said calmly: "Afan, I understand what you mean, but don't let the consequences. If it is a fair, reasonable, and completely implemented in the court laws, a peaceful world, and a bright world, if from officials to local tyrants, they are all law-abiding and loyal to their duties, how could they let the old brothers who retire from the army and live their lives suffer disasters? On the other hand, if the old brothers can abide by military discipline like in the army after returning to their hometown and do not bully others, how could they have irresolved conflicts with ordinary neighbors?"
Liu Fan laughed and pointed at Shen Tianzi in front of him, saying, "Brother Jinu, your beautiful ideal is simply impossible to achieve. Either Xie Tingyun and many old brothers returning home, they are alone and unable to operate industries. Then they collude with the powerful bullies in these aristocratic families and join forces to bully them, or come to Ming, and then falsely accused the soldiers returning home from the country after suddenly and falsely accusing the soldiers who returned home by using national laws, or use blackmail, pretending to be bandits to siege one or two old soldiers who left alone, just like Xie Tingyun. In short, most of the veterans who listen to you, received rewards, and then distributed the fields and returned home without a good result."
"If you are grouping together and becoming a local tycoon, just like the Shen family, you will start to establish your own private military department after returning home, and then run rampant in the countryside and violate the law and discipline. Didn't the Shen family go back and use the excuse of the neighbors who reported to their fathers and grandparents who committed crimes and then beheaded them all to pay tribute to their fathers and grandparents with their heads? All of these people are dead? Isn't there any situation where the Shen family brothers return to their hometown to take revenge and kill revenge?"
Liu Yu frowned and said, "I have personally investigated the Shen family's case. Liu Muzhi helped me to try it. They did have cruel revenge, which harmed their family members, but those enemies were also killed. In essence, these people are a local domineering, rampant in the countryside, bullying men and women. They also committed to the demon thief today in the war, and tomorrow they will be in charge of the government army. They have no loyalty at all. Only by using the Shen brothers who are loyal to the court and generals in the army to eliminate these local snakes can they completely control these grassroots villages. I don't think there is any problem with this. Among the Shen brothers, their elder brother also came out to take responsibility and took the responsibility. He was dismissed from office and returned to his hometown for the people, which was to deal with it according to the national law."
Liu Fan sneered: "That's the Shen brothers who obeyed you, Mr. Liu, Brother Jinu, do you think they are your people, and listen to your words, that is, to the country. But if you are not in this position, what will happen if the people in power in the Jin Dynasty change to others? I'm afraid it's likely that they will become those fellow villagers who were killed by them. If Brother Jinu really enforces the law and is justified, he should also deal with the Shen brothers according to the national law, instead of letting them pay off their titles. A big brother can withstand the family's vendetta and kill hundreds of lives if he dismisses his post."
Liu Yu sighed and said, "If we say so, our disposal of the Diao family and Wang Yu family is also an act outside of national law. During that period, Jianyi had just succeeded, and there were people from all over the country who had enemies with us. In order to establish his authority, the methods were inevitably excessive. Even your brothers have eliminated the forces and old subordinates left by Huan Chu in Jiankang City. During the special period, these things are possible, but after the world is stable, they must act according to national law."
Liu Fan raised his eyebrows and said, "Brother Ji Nu, you have one national law and another law. These laws are all very good. They are all your ideals, but to be realized, people need to implement them. While you cooperate with the noble families to maintain their power and influence in the grassroots villages, so that they can continue to control the countryside, while wishing to think that our old brothers can live a good life after returning to their hometowns. In fact, only in Yuzhou and Jiankang, if our brothers have the ability to shelter them, they can truly return home and live and work in peace and contentment. If our brothers’ military power and administrative positions are removed as you think, then these old brothers under our brothers will be unprotected and will end up with the same ending as Xie Tingyun and the others."
Speaking of this, Liu Fan looked at Meng Huaiyu and said in a deep voice: "Huaiyu, the loyal unit of your Meng family has been fighting with you for more than ten years. There are more than 2,000 veterans who have been fighting with the Raptors and you. You just hand them over to others with confidence. From now on, don't ask how they are doing and cut off contact?"
Meng Huaiyu hesitated for a moment, gritted his teeth, and said, "They are soldiers of the Great Jin Dynasty, not from my Meng family. Brother Afan still needs to recognize this. Although I am reluctant to part with these soldiers and these brothers who share life and death, I believe that under the leadership of Brother Jinu, the country's laws will become more and more perfect, and will be more and more smoothly when implemented. The tragedy of brothers Xie Tingyun is because we tried to return home for the first time, but we had no experience, and many subsequent guarantees and laws did not keep up. This time, I believe the situation will be completely different."
Xiang Mi also said, "That's right, there is a political affairs hall? They are not promoted openly and secretly but do not care about affairs. Even Helanmin's intelligence organization has been established. A Fan, this is why Brother Jinu wants to build a set of uncontrolled and superior families. Our military soldiers themselves have their own spy information. For example, to create a retired soldier, or an honorary military comrades Association, or to establish these intelligence organizations within our Beijing Eighth Party. Whoever is bullied or wronged is wronged, quickly upload this information to the political affairs hall and upload it to the court, and then the imperial envoy will solve these matters. As long as a few major cases like Wang Yu are handled, there will be no dog who has eaten the courage of the bear heart and leopard and dares to bully our veterans!"
