Chapter 4348: Soldiers working together to defend their country
Xie Hui's beard moved slightly in the wind, and he said loudly: "All the children of the great families, all the officials and civil servants of the Jin Dynasty, we have all been favored by the country, and we are able to stand here. It is our ancestors who are here."
In times of crisis back then, just like the generals today, they served the country, shed blood, sweat, and sacrificed their lives, and only then did we, the descendants of us, gain glory and wealth."
"Now, the Great Jin Dynasty is once again facing danger. This time we are no longer facing the Hulu cavalry, but those demon thieves who have been causing trouble for many years. We have pardoned them and defeated them, but they do not want to repent and are ungrateful.
, instead they took advantage of our Marshal Liu's Northern Expedition to the Barbarians and regained the lost territory, and took advantage of the opportunity to launch a sneak attack. They relied on some scum from our aristocratic family and colluded with them with an ulterior conspiracy. They were lucky enough to succeed for a while. Now there are dozens of thieves.
Wan, the army is coming to Jiankang, and our Jin Dynasty is once again at a time of life and death!"
"Just a few days ago, we didn't have the courage and hope to defend the city. The important ministers in the court and the leaders of the famous families were discussing at the court how to evacuate and where to evacuate. If Marshal Liu hadn't returned to the city in person, if it hadn't been for Xie Xie
My wife defied all opinions and insisted on staying. How could we be waiting at the gate of the Imperial Ancestral Temple to witness the determination of the soldiers to kill the thieves and defend the city, and to witness the feats of Marshal Liu and the generals who made their determination clear in blood?!"
Xie Hui's words were so righteous, coupled with his resolute expression and sonorous and powerful gestures, even Xie Hun and Xi Sengshi couldn't help but blush in the audience. Although they had already stood up at this time, compared to
When I knelt down and asked for resignation just now, I felt even more ashamed and wanted to find a crack in the ground to crawl into.
Xie Hui's eyes swept over Xie Hun and others, and said calmly: "Today, I am waiting here, in front of the ancestors of the Jin Dynasty and our ancestors, not to pursue anyone's fault. Just now Marshal Liu
That's right, even he was afraid when he was crossing the river, facing thunderstorms and rough waves, and he was hesitant and didn't dare to cross the river."
"But in the end, Marshal Liu's courage overcame his fear of death and resolutely boarded the ship. Sure enough, the sea was calm and the thunder and lightning stopped. This is the prediction given to us by God. No matter how powerful the enemy is, no matter how disappointing the environment is,
Despair, back then our ancestors could defend the south of the Yangtze River when the land of China was sinking, and back then our ancestors could win the Battle of Feishui when the millions of troops of the former Qin Dynasty pressed on the border. Today, we can definitely unite as one and defend Jiankang!"
There was a burst of cheers at the bottom of the steps, followed by thunderous applause. Even Xie Hun and Xi Sengshi applauded. Everyone's face was filled with excitement. Many people even
He had already rolled up his sleeves and tied the bottom of his wide skirt around his waist, exposing his trousers and calves that were easily hidden from others. This was an extremely disrespectful behavior for a member of a noble family.
You know, in order to achieve the kind of demeanor that looks like gods, the children of these aristocratic families wear wide robes and long sleeves as their standard equipment, even if it affects their walking. When Liu Muzhi joined the army in Jingkou, he wore short clothes and was still in trouble.
This has been ridiculed by the children of the aristocratic families in Beijing for a long time, but now, they all wish they could become Liu Muzhi when he joined the army.
Liu Yu looked calm. When the cheers and cheers of the crowd gradually subsided, he slowly said: "Defending the city is not only a matter of the army, nor is it only a matter of the children of the aristocratic family. It requires everyone in the city.
Every common person, every soldier, and every son of aristocratic families work together and unite as one. Today, at the gate of the Ancestral Temple, due to the limited size of the venue, I cannot express my true feelings to every common person and every soldier in the city,
I can only tell you here."
"Standing here now are generals from the Jin Dynasty and children from aristocratic families. Each of you has to command hundreds to tens of thousands of soldiers, and mobilize hundreds or even thousands of manpower.
Controlling a large amount of grain, grass and ordnance, without soldiers, it is impossible to fight and kill bandits at the front. Without children of aristocratic families, it is impossible to maintain supplies in the rear, record battle reports from the front, draft various military orders, and use the savings in the city.
Materials for military use. Only if we work together to protect our country can we win this war."
Many people in the audience began to shout: "I am willing to join the army now to serve the country and fight to the death against the monsters and thieves!"
"Even if I bring some wine, I want everyone to see my blood."
"Including me, I want everyone to see that the blood of the children of our family is hot and red, even if it means holding a halberd and a sword."
Liu Yu smiled slightly, pressed his hands down, and made appeasing gestures, which slightly eased the volcanic eruption-like atmosphere. The audience began to become silent, but everyone's eyes shone with earnest light, focusing on Liu Yu.
On Yu's body.
Liu Yu said seriously: "To be honest, we are extremely benevolent towards the monster thieves. When they started to cause chaos, many of us sympathized with them, including me. Lu Xun, Xu Dao and I
After all, they had fought side by side and defended Luoyang together. Before I went to the land of Sanwu, I thought they were forced by the government to rebel and wanted to recruit them. Until I saw with my own eyes that the land of Sanwu was deserted for thousands of miles.
, ten rooms and nine figures, the corpses of the murdered aristocratic family members and villagers, hung with branches, and the Jin army soldiers who died in the battle were made into a Jingguan, I was shocked, and I realized my mistake.
"
"But I still had illusions at that time. I thought these were people who had been oppressed by powerful families for many years and had to resist. They exploded the anger of being oppressed for a long time. Although it was cruel, it was also understandable. Until
When I followed the army to the Qiantang River, I saw the swaddling clothes floating all over the river. I saw the drowned babies. They were all thrown into the river by their biological mothers. I thought this was to send their children to meet the water and become immortals. I then
Only then did I truly understand that what we are facing are no longer human beings, but a group of demons walking in the world. No matter what means we use to deal with them, it is appropriate."
"From now on, I will show no mercy to monsters and thieves on the battlefield, because I know that they will never show mercy to me, my brothers, or the people who are unwilling to defy and follow them. The children of the aristocratic families used to oppress
The common people should only strictly investigate and deal with the illegal activities that are rampant in the countryside through national laws, and must not resist through this method of destroying everything and massacring the city and clearing out the countryside. I can let go of the rebellious people who can be saved, but for those
The leader of thieves who brought trouble to the world, I will cut him into pieces!"
