Chapter 621 Distinction between public and private
Liu Mingzhi looked helplessly at the enthusiastic gazes in the eyes of these generals. At this time, their appearance was in line with the late Wu Guogong Wan Buhai's evaluation of them.
A group of unruly and howling wolf cubs.
They will only show this arrogant but confident posture in front of Liu Mingzhi, a bole. This is how they should be.
Liu Mingzhi silently stared at the twenty or thirty generals who were promoted by himself, and Liu Mingzhi felt a little sad in his heart.
They did not get the position they should have in this expedition, which had a lot to do with themselves.
Although Liu Mingzhi didn't say anything, he knew it as clearly as a mirror.
“You all sit down and fight like you did under me. What are you thinking?”
Everyone's commanding habits are very different. Mr. Yun belongs to the group that seeks stability. If you are not afraid of being dealt with by military law, I will leave you alone.
Do you dare?
Do you dare to ignore military orders like mountains?"
A group of guys with wild eyes suddenly became stunned again when they heard Mr. Liu’s ‘rebuke’ words.
Cheng Kai was one of the first generals to follow Young Master Liu, and he had the prestige of a big brother among the generals.
He gave the brothers a calm look. He knew that since the commander called him and others to come, he must have his own ideas.
"Commander, the brothers are accustomed to obeying your orders and are too lazy to think about it. Just tell them how you want them to behave."
Liu Mingzhi gave Cheng Kai a satisfied look and lightly rolled his eyes at the others. The meaning was quite obvious.
Study hard and use your brain more.
The generals scratched their foreheads angrily and laughed helplessly.
Obviously, he has long been accustomed to succumbing to Master Liu's power.
They all came here with Liu Mingzhi in hand, so they are naturally quite familiar with Liu Mingzhi's habits.
“Please give me some advice, Commander-in-Chief.”
Liu Mingzhi sipped the tea and pondered for a while.
“Fighting, of course I want you to let go and fight.
But how to let go and fight, you must have a bottom line in your heart, and let go and fight with the permission of Commander Yun's military order.
The position that all of you are currently in makes it difficult to engage in close combat with the enemy.
In this case, if there is no enemy, then create an enemy.
Do you understand what I mean by this handsome king?"
Liu Mingzhi’s eyes mainly focused on Cheng Kai, Zhou Baoyu, Ye Baotong, Feng Buer, Ning Chao and Chu Jing.
After all, the six of them are the generals of the Six Guards of the New Army, so their brains are naturally extraordinary.
The six people looked at each other silently and began to think. Their eyes kept spinning, thinking about the meaning of Liu Mingzhi's words.
After a long time, the six of them seemed to have come to their senses and looked at Liu Mingzhi tentatively.
“Commander, I’m afraid it won’t be easy!”
“You stay with me, what is the most important command I give you?”
"Two armies are facing each other, and the war is changing rapidly. We cannot stick to some side details and act according to the situation."
“Hmm! Just understand.
Come on, there’s a lot to learn.”
Looking at Liu Mingzhi who was picking up the tea cup and tasting the tea carefully, the six of them whispered the words "play it by ear", and their eyes gradually brightened.
“Commander, do you mean to seize the opportunity and let the brothers take advantage of the military order issued by Marshal Yun to separate themselves and form their own army during the battle?”
Liu Mingzhi looked at Cheng Kai with a very satisfied look deep in his eyes, but with a serious expression on his face.
“Cheng Kai, what are you talking about? What do I mean? What did I say? You damn boy are throwing dirty water on me.”
Cheng Kai stared blankly at Mr. Liu's "heartless" reaction. The corners of his mouth twitched as he picked up the tea to hide his embarrassment.
“Commander, please forgive me. I have lost my moral character after drinking and talked nonsense. I will propose a toast to you. Please don’t get angry with me, commander-in-chief.”
A group of people looked at Cheng Kai's shameless face and black heart in silence. No one could get drunk even after drinking tea.
However, many people gradually understood the meaning of Liu Mingzhi's words and began to think about it carefully.
Liu Mingzhi leaned forward and took off the tobacco bag from Song Qing's waist, and started smoking again.
Lighting the tobacco skillfully and puffing out, Liu Mingzhi's eyes became serious and wandered over the crowd.
Everyone who was thinking felt a familiar pressure exerted on themselves and others. They suddenly came back to their senses and sat upright and looked at Mr. Liu.
Looking at Liu Mingzhi who was kneeling behind the low table and puffing away smoke, the soldiers seemed to have returned to the days when they were on the battlefield, when the general was sitting in the central army's big account and giving orders to the three armies.
"This national war is about the country, the country, and the country, and the credit is not small. Although I am not with you, I still don't want to see the disaster that caused Xiao Qiang happen in the army. Do you understand what I mean?"
“We have been given the order and will never fight for power or benefit, or kill each other. If we betray you, humans and gods will be angry, and heaven and earth will destroy us.”
“Well! Just understand. You are all veterans who have been with me for many years. You have been eating from the same pot for many years. You must not be blinded by some utilitarianism and harm the friendship that has been established for many years.
Likewise, you are not allowed to do things that are detrimental to your brother troops. You can tolerate it if you can, and retreat if you can. You must help when you need to help. You are soldiers and you have the same purpose. If you have any conflicts, let them be clear about it. The better the time.
, compete in front of the whole army to vent their anger, victory or defeat depends entirely on strength.
If anyone dares to be angry and stab you in the back, I don’t care how hard you work and merit, as long as it is reported to me, once it is verified, the first day your commander returns to the court will be the day he engages in military law."
“We will obey the orders.”
“Chu Jing.”
“The end will be here.”
“Compared to Cheng Kai and the other five, you have a heavier burden and greater pressure. You cannot bear to sacrifice your life for the country. I hope you can lead the brothers of the Futu Guard well and carry forward the banner that I cannot bear to protect to the death.
In the last battle, your Futu Guard had the largest number of dead and injured brothers, and conversely, you also have the largest number of new recruits now.
This is quite a challenge for you.”
“What the commander-in-chief said is true, but please rest assured, commander-in-chief, the general will not lose his reputation as a general and will carry forward the reputation of the Futu Guard again.”
“Just have confidence. Although the imperial court and the Ministry of War have officially appointed you as the general of the Pagoda Guard, to me, you are still just the general of inspection.
This is the battle to change my king's opinion of you."
“When the general gets the order at the end, he will definitely get it approved by the prince.
"The general's words are empty. On the day of the expedition, the prince can go to the battlefield and practice it for the brothers, and personally test the morale of the 50,000 soldiers of our Futu Guard."
"this"
Liu Mingzhi hesitated for a while and nodded slightly: "Okay, on the day of the expedition, I will personally go to practice for your brothers in the Sixth Guards, and also see how well you have trained the new recruits.
If the king is not satisfied, he can be served with a military stick."
“We are always waiting for the commander-in-chief to review the brothers.”
“Brothers, I have an unkind invitation for you to come this time.”
“Please give me your orders, Commander-in-Chief!”
“Willow pine.”
“Yes, Master!”
Liu Song came over with a jar of wine, patted off the sealing mud and placed it in front of Liu Mingzhi.
Liu Mingzhi picked up the wine jar and walked towards everyone one by one.
“You should not be allowed to drink alcohol today, but I will make an exception today and share a drink with my brothers.”
Seeing that Liu Mingzhi wanted to pour the wine himself, the generals hurriedly picked up their teacups and stood up respectfully to wait.
During the tea time, everyone present, including Song Qing, all raised their cups.
“Brothers, Liu Mingzhi respects you.”
"please!"
“Congratulations, Commander-in-Chief!”
Liu Mingzhi drank the cup in one gulp and signaled to everyone.
“Thank you, Marshal.”
“After drinking wine, I will no longer hide my secrets. You all know my character and know that I don’t like to cheat.
Brothers, the primary goal of this national war must be the Kingdom of Jin."
Everyone was stunned, wondering how the commander-in-chief knew about Mr. Yun’s deployment. Then they thought about Liu Mingzhi’s experience in leading troops, and it was no longer surprising.
“Brothers, if the Kingdom of Jin is unfortunately destroyed by your cavalry, I have nothing to say.
You are soldiers, and it is the bounden duty of soldiers to obey orders. You are going out to fight for the country, and I will not restrict your steps with affection.
But I ask you to understand the difficulties I face as a father and husband.
Once the Jin Kingdom is destroyed, I hope the brothers can show mercy to the little girl and the bitch, Liu Mingzhi thanks you in advance."
The generals looked at Liu Mingzhi who bowed and made a heavy salute. They hurriedly put down the quilt in their hands and walked out. They lined up neatly in two rows and knelt down on one knee facing Young Master Liu.
“We dare not accept this great gift.
Don’t worry, Commander. On behalf of the 50,000 brothers who are trapped in the battle, I will swear to protect my wife and my niece Luoyue. I will not worry about my niece’s life. If something goes wrong, I will have someone come to see her."
“On behalf of the 50,000 Polu army brothers, I will vouch for my wife and my niece, Luoyue, who is safe and sound. If something goes wrong, I will have someone come to see her.”
"The general can represent the 50,000 brothers of the Futu Army to protect his wife. Yue'er's niece's wealth and life are not worried. If something goes wrong, the general will commit suicide and apologize to the commander."
“On behalf of the 50,000 brothers in the Hundred War Army, I will swore to protect my sister-in-law Yue’er and my niece from appearing in front of the commander safely. If something goes wrong, I will have someone apologize.”
"On behalf of the 50,000 brothers of the Fang Guard, I will swear to protect my wife, and my niece Luoyue will return to Dalong. If something goes wrong, I will have someone to apologize."
“On behalf of the 50,000 brothers in the Rui Shi Army, I will guarantee that my sister-in-law and my niece Luoyue are safe and sound. If anything goes wrong, I will be willing to commit suicide and apologize to repay the kindness of the commander-in-chief.”
Cheng Kai and the other six people gave their assurances one after another. Liu Mingzhi looked at General Liu Wei gratefully and bowed again.
“Thank you all brothers, thank you Liu Mingzhi.”
“We dare not, but we are willing to go through fire and water for the commander-in-chief, even to the death.”
“Brothers, on this occasion of the expedition, Liu Mingzhi should stop talking nonsense.
Still as I said before, save your life, perform meritorious service, bring your brothers back, and fight within the limits allowed by military orders.
Since the formation of the army, the 300,000 cavalry under my command, Liu Mingzhi, have been invincible and invincible.
Even if you die in battle without dishonoring your name, a soldier should protect his home and country and return his body wrapped in horse leather.
You may die in battle, but you cannot die for no reason.
You have followed this king to all the dangerous places in the Three Kingdoms without ever being defeated.
This expedition cannot be defeated.
Let's not sacrifice ourselves as pawns in vain.
I wish you all brothers in advance that 300,000 soldiers will return triumphantly.
When the teacher returns to court, I will serve wine at Shanhaiguan to celebrate your victory."
“Thank you, Marshal, for being mighty!”
“Mighty!”
“Mighty!”
“Get back!”
“We leave!”
Just like in the past when the army was commanding generals, Liu Mingzhi, although wearing civilian clothes, gave instructions to the generals of the three armies with high spirits.
In a matter of seconds, thirty people came and left quickly, leaving only two brothers, Liu Mingzhi and Song Qing.
Song Qing looked at Liu Mingzhi with complicated eyes.
“Three hundred thousand elite cavalry will protect my brothers, sisters and niece Luoyue, so I have no worries.”
“Yes, worry-free!
Sending troops north is for the sake of the country’s justice, and it’s fair!
Swearing to protect each other to the death is out of brotherly love and private!
Being able to distinguish between public and private matters makes him an outstanding person in the world."
