People of the old school can certainly see Datang's intentions.
But the matter has nothing to do with themselves, and most people have a high-spirited attitude.
The younger generation is determined to serve the country but is unable to do so.
After all, fighting from the front is useless, and fighting from the side is meaningless. In the end, we have to rely on Datang to achieve peace.
Therefore, they could only watch as Datang's influence grew more and more in their own land.
As for young generals like Jin Rongxin, how could they be willing to do so?
If this situation continues, then Silla will become a vassal state of the Tang Dynasty like Baekje.
This is not what Jin Rongxin wants.
At this moment, I looked at these generals and soldiers who were still unwilling to lose the battle.
Jin Rongxin was also quite angry.
He said bluntly: "If one day in the future, the Tang Dynasty takes over Silla, you people will be the chief culprits."
"Your actions today, whether you dare not die or fight, will determine what kind of tomorrow Silla will have."
"A bunch of skinless, faceless, and boneless things. In vain, I pledged my life to the king that you would be able to repel the Japanese army."
Jin Rongxin sighed heavily.
"Now it seems that I was wrong."
His shoulders slumped: "Let's go, all of you, let me be alone."
Listening to the depressing words of their own generals, these generals felt a little ashamed.
After all, Kim Young-shin's strategy of dividing and encircling the Japanese army on a small scale was excellent.
This is also a tactic that Li Chengqian has been using for a long time, and it is especially useful against Japanese troops.
But now it was Silla, and they failed one after another.
Even when the enemy was surrounded, the enemy was still able to break through.
This is really unreasonable.
One of the generals knelt down on one knee, facing Jin Rongxin and said: "General, I am willing to bear full responsibility for this failure."
"you?"
"You are just a logistics person responsible for escorting food and grass."
Jin Rongxin chuckled and said: "If we lose the battle at the front, what does it have to do with you, a grain transport officer?"
"The crime of a bad general is not in war."
"It's because the general didn't try his best."
"If the general had sent me to deliver food and grass, I would have stood up and strongly opposed it and expressed my desire to go to the front line."
"Then maybe it won't be such a scene today."
This guy's words are quite unpleasant.
What does he mean?
Is it certain that he will win if he goes to the battlefield?
This also gave the generals on the side the urge to beat him up.
Isn’t this guy too owed?
Why didn't he say that if he was given the command, he could kill the entire Japanese army by himself?
"well said."
"But I can't punish you."
"It's even more impossible for you to bear the responsibility that you shouldn't bear."
Jin Rongxin is very happy if someone can stand up and admit his mistake.
He looked directly at the man and said: "From now on, you don't have to escort food and grass, just stay with me."
"Thank you for the promotion, General."
The general intervened and said loudly: "General, I will definitely live up to my mission!"
At this time, Jin Rongxin turned to look at the generals in the crowd.
He said: "General Song, from now on, you will be the new grain transport officer of our army."
Grain transport officer?
General Song jumped up and said: "General, but..."
Before he could finish speaking, he was rudely interrupted by Jin Rongxin.
"But what?"
"But you suffered a defeat, so I can't punish you?"
"Besides, do you think the position of transporting grain and fodder is not important?"
"The whole army is waiting for you to eat."
"And judging from your intelligence, your
It is indeed not suitable for commanding troops and horses in battle."
Jin Rongxin made no secret of his disdain.
He said: "Okay, you can do whatever I want to do. There's not much to explain."
Grain transportation officer is indeed a very important position.
After all, food and fodder go first before the soldiers and horses are used. In an army, food and fodder are extremely important.
If he had been appointed to this position before the war started, it would have been obvious that the general trusted him.
But it would be a bit insulting to be transferred from the front line to the rear after the war started.
Moreover, Jin Rongxin also said that he was not suitable to command soldiers and horses in combat.
Doesn't this make it clear that you look down on him?
General Song's face turned red and he gritted his teeth with hatred.
He clenched his fists and said, "But I am a pioneer appointed by the king, and you have no right to dispatch me."
Now, the war has entered its middle and late stages.
Datang was fighting a tough battle at the front, and all Silla had to do was help from the side.
So for many people, now is the best opportunity to earn military merit.
And with this kind of opportunity, it's natural for the powerful children to appear.
The Song general in front of him was none other than Song Jinhui, the son of Silla Prime Minister Song Shangxiong.
And how can a person from such a family obey the discipline of others, and how can he be wantonly insulted by others?
"Don't have the right to dispatch you?"
Jin Rongxin sneered: "Song Jinhui, don't forget, I am the leader of this army."
"I have the right to act according to the battlefield and dispatch generals to serve where they need to be."
"And you are not suitable for fighting on the front line, you are only suitable for doing odd jobs."
Jin Rongxin looked at Song Jinhui disdainfully and said, "If you have any objections, you can go back to the royal court and sue me. If you have no objections, just get out of here and dispatch food and grass."
Of course Song Jinhui would not be stupid enough to actually file a complaint.
After all, even if he files a complaint, there will be no consequences, and he may even be punished. >
Therefore, he could only say: "Jin Rongxin, just wait for me."
After saying this, he walked directly out of the central military tent.
Many generals present, you look at me, I look at you.
In the end, no one said anything.
No one stood up to speak for Song Jinhui.
After all, the situation in front of them is already very clear. If they want to continue to enjoy military glory in the army, they have to listen to Jin Rongxin.
Otherwise, Jin Rongxin would have to transfer them to insignificant positions.
And through this incident, it is enough to see that Silla's interior is not as harmonious as it seems.
Even within this small army, there are many forces infiltrating it.
And this is where Jin Rongxin is helpless.
He really envies Li Chengqian now.
After all, Li Chengqian was the absolute mastermind in that army.
The generals under him are all shrewd and capable. As long as his military orders are issued, they will be carried out immediately.
Li Chengqian didn't even need to waste any words, those generals would independently adjust their current tactics based on the battlefield situation.
Thinking of this, Jin Rongxin couldn't help but sigh.
It would be great if Silla could also have such generals...
How great it would be if Silla could also have a commander like Li Chengqian...
If it were true, then he would even be willing to attack the other party.
It's a pity that Silla doesn't have it.
He, Jin Rongxin, could only do it on his own.
After all the generals have left.
He stepped forward to the map and carefully watched the movements of the Japanese troops on the map.
Now, the Japanese army has passed through almost half of Silla's territory, and can enter Baekje within two or three days.
By that time, they would have no way to continue the pursuit, let alone avenge their shame.
Thinking of this, Jin Rongxin slapped his hand on the map: "I killed people and committed evil and still want to escape, but there is no way..."
