Chapter 2828: Everyone has their own ambitions, but its hard to find one
Speaking of this, Zhuge Changmin became more excited and raised his tone, which made his voice echo in everyone's ears: "Brother Jinu, you also know that this is what our Beifu Army has done over the years.
According to the rules, looting is allowed after victory, so that the brothers can get what is rightfully theirs. From the Battle of Junchuan to the pacification of the eight counties of Wudi in Liu Zhenbei, which time was this not the case?"
"Under your command, Jingkou Jianyi, there were only more than a thousand brothers who participated, and they were all rewarded with titles. I won't go into details here. But during the last western expedition to Jingzhou, you said that you wanted to appease the people of Jingzhou and not allow plunder.
, the brothers themselves are very dissatisfied. This time we attack the Huru, it is still the Huru who has a deep hatred with us. The Murong family has been rampant in the north for many years, and countless treasures are hidden in Guanggu. How can we let the brothers let it go?
I’m afraid that people will feel uneasy!”
Liu Yu shook his head gently: "Changmin, let's put it this way, the brothers in your headquarters who are willing to come to the Northern Expedition this time are not because they want to expel the Huru or because of the imperial court's order, but because they heard something about Murong Murong.
There is news that there is a large amount of treasure hidden in Guangzhou. Do you want to make a fortune?"
Zhuge Changmin's expression changed slightly, and he turned to the other generals and said, "Is this rumor only in our army? There should be such rumors everywhere in your army."
Tan Shao nodded: "Yes, before the army was sent out, many sergeants took the initiative to join the army, saying that they would go to the north to conquer Nan Yan. Not only could they take revenge and fight back to their hometown, but they could also get the treasures that Nan Yan had hidden for hundreds of years."
Xiang Mi also said in a deep voice: "Yes, even my three nephews who are farming in Wudi are here. They refused to come during the last Western Expedition, but this time they took the initiative to come. It can be said that most of the people in the army came
There are rumors that the Murong family has ruled the north for many years since they entered the Central Plains. They have a large number of treasures from Shizhao to the former Qin Dynasty, and are extremely wealthy. Therefore, every time the Yan Kingdom is attacked, they must summon the Xianbei people from all over the country to return.
The purpose of the capital is to protect these treasures from outsiders!"
Liu Fan laughed: "Not only in Yangzhou and Jiangbei, but also in our Yuzhou and Yanzhou, these rumors were popular a month ago. I heard that the reason why tens of thousands of Xianbei people are willing to leave their homes, even like the Helan tribe,
He rebelled against the Northern Wei Dynasty and defected to the Southern Yan Dynasty because of the treasures of the Murong family. Not to mention the Shi family of the later Zhao Dynasty, even the years of savings of the Fu family of the former Qin Dynasty were robbed by Murong Yong of the Xiyan family in Chang'an.
He wanted to return to Liaodong all the way, but was killed by Murong Chui. These treasures finally belonged to Murong Chui. Later, when Hou Yan was destroyed, Murong De took most of the treasures and fled to Qingzhou. Now these treasures are all in Guanggu.
Otherwise, how could this mere state of Qingzhou mobilize hundreds of thousands of troops for him?"
Following Liu Fan's words, all the generals in the tent were talking to each other and nodding in agreement. Obviously, they were also facing the same situation.
Liu Yu sighed softly: "I didn't expect that the troop dispatch and assembly went so smoothly this time because of such a rumor. It's also my fault that I was too anxious to send troops this time and didn't even understand these rumors in the army."
Sun Chu said: "Jinu, these rumors were spread everywhere before the troops were sent out, but they were only spread among the Beifu army and veterans, and ordinary people did not have these rumors. You are probably in the court or the commander's mansion,
I don’t know about the rumors among the soldiers below. It’s just that after this expedition, military laws prohibited the spread of these rumors, so although the soldiers thought so in their hearts, they didn’t say anything.”
Liu Yu nodded: "So, everyone actually joined the army this time to get the so-called century-old treasure after conquering Guanggu?"
Yu Qiujin said seriously: "Jinnu, I know you don't like to hear this, but it is the fact. There are few ordinary soldiers who think about making contributions and leaving their names in history like you did back then. This time it is not a guarantee.
Jiaweiguo resisted the invasion of the Huru, but went to the Northern Expedition to destroy the country. To be honest, it has been nearly a hundred years since the north fell to the Huru. Although there were several recoveries, they were all quickly gained and lost.
The people are already three or four generations apart from Da Jin, who are the descendants of northern refugees in the south. Unlike Bottle, Rabbit and the others who went south, they still have the urgent idea of regaining their homeland. Everyone must risk their lives just to fight.
It’s a bit hard to go back to the place that my grandfather or even our great ancestor fled when he was a great ancestor.”
Liu Yu raised his eyebrows lightly: "It's true. Three generations have actually been released on the fifth server. When I was a child, my father taught me every day to fight back to the north and restore the Central Plains. But even I find it difficult to have time.
Now go teach Xingdi these principles. Takako, what you said is indeed human nature. However, even if it is a normal imperial recruitment, it is not without rewards. In the army, there is military pay, and at home, the whole family can be exempted from military service because of his joining the army.
, there will be rewards after the war, aren’t these enough rewards?”
Zhuge Changmin smiled and waved his hand: "If we are talking about annihilating a mountain bandit or attacking some Wu natives who are causing trouble in the manor, then of course these are enough to recruit people. After all, the difficulty is very low and it is easy to complete. Just rely on
A reward from the imperial court would allow the whole family to be tax-free for three years, and everyone would compete for this kind of thing."
"But this time it is the Northern Expedition, and the opponent is the Nanyan of the Murong clan who has dominated the world for hundreds of years and is almost invincible. Not to mention the distant place, more than ten years ago, during the battle of Wuqiaoze, almost every family in Jingkou wore a mourning hat. It can be said that we are big
In all the Northern Expeditions of the Jin Dynasty, the one who suffered the most losses and suffered the worst death was at the hands of the Murong clan. No one knew whether he could come back alive against such a powerful enemy. It would be really hard to join the army at this time.
We, the old brothers, can say that you, brother Jinu, will go through hell and fire with just one order, because you have saved our lives and led us to glory and wealth, but what about those young people? You can force them to do nothing.
Life and death, just to realize your ideal, Marshal Liu?"
When he finished speaking, Zhuge Changmin's eyes widened and his hands clenched into fists. Finally, he could express what he had buried deep in his heart for many years, which made him feel extremely relieved.
Everyone's eyes turned to Liu Yu. Yes, Zhuge Changmin said what they all wanted to say but didn't dare to say. Now everyone is waiting for Liu Yu's final decision, which is to continue to adhere to his ideals and implement them.
Benevolence and righteousness, but a return to the policy of Liu Laozhi's period, which was to release loot after victory to stimulate morale, lies in Liu Yu's words.
Liu Yu's expression was calm, his eyes swept over the faces full of complicated expressions, and finally returned to Zhuge Changmin. His voice was not loud, but every word was clearly heard: "
Brothers, may I ask you, what did you want when you were a young man joining the army?"
