At night, Qin Ge's tent seemed a little deserted. Qin Ge sat with the generals. During the day, the strategy proposed by Qin Ge in the main tent had spread throughout the military camp. Many nobles regarded Qin Ge as a demon and were afraid to avoid him.
Man Chong showed a wry smile and said: "My lord! I really don't know whether I should say you are wise and mighty? Or should I say you are reckless! You dare to say such things, which is against the rules of human ethics! Subjugating the superior has been a treason since ancient times and has been regarded as disrespectful. To be loyal to the devil, to be loyal to those above, this is the road of loyalty, your suggestion has already touched the red line of the nobles and even the entire world!"
Mao Jie also nodded and said: "Although the people recommended by you are all rare talents, they are of low status, have no prestige and are incapable of holding power. Subjugating the superior has been against human ethics since ancient times, especially Confucian orthodoxy. Please be careful what you say!"
"Bullshit! So what if the eldest brother says it! Gaozu was just a pavilion chief. He could counterattack and become emperor. This is not about defeating the superior! Bullshit!" Sun Guan was very angry and criticized Man Chong and Mao Jie!
Man Chong's face suddenly changed and he yelled angrily: "Nonsense! You can't say this again. This is the way to die. Do you want to trap the Lord and his righteousness?" After saying that, he stood up and walked to the tent, opened it, and warned Check to see if anyone is eavesdropping.
Sun Guan had studied classics with Man Chong. Man Chong's attitude shocked him and made him shrink back.
Qin Ge sighed and said: "We have a saying over there that 'you can never wake up a person who is pretending to sleep.' Everyone knows this, but those with vested interests want to protect their own interests, while the weak want to be attached. The strong rise but don't dare to break the news, my words just hit everyone's nerves!"
Looking around the brothers, Qin Ge let out a long sigh and said: "How could I not know this matter? Mr. Zhu Jun is a great Confucian of the world. The most important thing for a Confucian is reputation. His cruel methods along the way will definitely be condemned by the world." Criticism, such heavy killings are likely to endanger the country. I can't figure out why he acted like this, but one thing is for sure. He wanted to end the Yellow Turban Rebellion as soon as possible, and even risked everything to do so, even giving up his own reputation. No matter what, I was infected by his spirit of daring to give up everything for the world! That’s why I came up with this strategy! Do you know? One billion people died in the Yellow Turban Rebellion, which is equivalent to the population of three states. In total! The protection we receive from our free leaders is just a drop in the bucket. If the chaos continues, the consequences will be disastrous! I just want to contribute to ending this troubled world!"
After hearing this, the generals fell into silence. Mao Jie clenched his fists and lowered his head, while Man Chong looked at Qin Ge with a strange look in his eyes.
"Bo Xi! Don't you tell us every day that we must do our best in human affairs and obey destiny? You can do better than the people in the tent who are working for personal gain a thousand times regardless of yourself and being criticized by thousands of people. We will always be your strongest backing !" Yu Jin stood up and looked at Qin Ge.
Man Chong and others came out and knelt on the ground and kowtowed: "We will support the lord to the death!"
Qin Ge looked at the brothers in the room and smiled and said: "With you, what if Qin is broken to pieces? Let us burn the last drop of blood vigorously in this chaotic era!" No matter how dark the road ahead is, no matter how weird the future is, as long as Looking at these brothers, Qin Ge was fearless.
The generals were also infected by Qin Ge's indomitable heroic spirit. At this time, the pressure from the nobles in their hearts had long been forgotten. They were so passionate about following Qin Ge that their blood was boiling every moment.
Qin Ge helped everyone up and said: "Brothers gathered in the big tent today just to talk about their hearts. Too many things happened during this period, and I was also upset. I just wanted to tell my brothers what was on my mind, otherwise I would I was so depressed, but now I feel much better!"
…
In the large tent of the Chinese army, Zhu Jun held the Confucian classic "The Doctrine of the Mean" in his hand and was walking around in the tent reading at night. However, at this time, his thoughts were already hard to calm down. Finally, with a long sigh, he threw the classic on the table and sighed: " The battlefield is really no place for studying!"
At this time, a voice came from outside the big tent and said: "Greetings to Cao Cao, the Inspector of Cavalry!"
Zhu Jun frowned and said, "Please!"
Cao Cao, wearing armor, pushed open the camp tent and stepped in. He looked at Zhu Jun with a smile and said, "Cao Cao knows that Zhonglang will be in a state of confusion, so I will give you a dose of tranquilizing medicine!"
Zhu Jun looked at Cao Cao and saw him looking at him with bright eyes, then he smiled and said: "When did Meng De change to study medicine? I don't know that I am uneasy!"
Cao Cao said with a smile: "My lord used to sit upright when he was reading the scriptures. However, today when Meng De was patrolling the camp, he found that your lord was pacing back and forth in the big tent. Your lord can't even calm down to study the scriptures. It shows that he must be very confused!"
Zhu Jun stroked his beard and smiled: "Everyone says that you, Cao Mengde, are shrewd and can communicate with the gods. This is true! I am really looking forward to your tranquilizing medicine!"
Cao Cao said sternly: "The crux of your illness lies in indecision. Since you have made up your mind at the beginning, why should you hesitate now? Do you want to back down?"
Zhu Jun sighed and said: "Meng De! You are really going to become a spirit! Since I have already traveled ninety years, how can I have any intention of turning back? It's just that I'm afraid that the powerful medicine Qin Boxi gave me will not be enough!"
Cao Cao laughed and said: "Although your Excellency has been in politics for half of his life in local states and counties, and studied in the academy, although he has been among the officialdom and nobles for most of his life, he does not know his nature! There is a proverb among the people, 'Barking dogs are not fierce', which means those who The barking dogs are loud but not vicious! Do you know Cao's 'five-color stick' that day? Although these nobles are vicious, as long as you don't force them into a desperate situation, they may bark at you fiercely, but they are timid. They are astonishingly like barking dogs. As long as you lift the stick, they will run away with their tails between their legs. Who dares to resist and cause chaos? As for gathering troops to mutiny, they really don’t have the courage! Your Excellency, you should have heard of Qin Boxi’s plan to reorganize the Northern Route Army. Come on, Liu Gongshan’s dignified Han family members were almost scared to death, this is the courage of the noble people, they have long lost the blood of their ancestors, they are just a bunch of stupid pigs!”
Zhu Jun was most worried about this matter. With the battle, the imperial army suffered heavy losses. Now the main force of the army is Yanzhou soldiers and Xuzhou soldiers. These are the private soldiers of noble families from all over the country. Zhu Jun actually approved Qin Ge's plan during the day, but Seeing the fierce reaction of the noble clans, he felt a little guilty, fearing to arouse the anger of the noble clans and cause a mutiny. But now when he heard what Cao Cao said, he felt at ease.
Zhu Jun thought in his heart, what Qin Ge said today: "Cao Cao has the talent to command thousands of armies and horses!" Thinking that Cao Cao was marching with him, and that Cao Cao had secretly influenced him in many important decisions along the way, he suddenly thought Realizing how extraordinary this man was, Zhu Jun couldn't help but look Cao Cao up and down and said with a wry smile: "I am really dim-sighted, and my vision is not as good as that of a boy! Meng De! If you are put in charge of the three armies, are you sure you can defeat the enemy?"
Cao Cao smiled complacently and said: "Since Qin Boxi dares to do such a shocking thing, how can I, Cao Mengde, lose to him! I can issue a military order to your Excellency. If I am allowed to take charge of the army, I will use Qin Boxi's strategy of recommending people to defeat the enemy." The Five Jue Formation is effortless, but the difficulty lies in conquering the Qingzhou home base of the Yellow Turban Bandits. What I fear the most is the nobles. If the war becomes anxious, they are likely to retreat. At that time, I will be like Qin Boxi, who was in charge of the Northern Route Army some time ago, and be defeated by them. If we attack in groups, my lord, you will have no choice but to abandon Cao!"
Zhu Jun's eyes flashed and he said: "As long as you can break the Five Jue Formation, I will do whatever it takes to support you in commanding the army!" Cao Cao's eyes flashed.
…
In the army camp, Qin Ge had a heart-to-heart talk with the generals. For a while, everyone poured out all their depression during this period and felt a lot more at ease.
"Jizong! I heard people say that Xiliang soldiers cannibalize human flesh. Will you follow suit? You have become a little frightened to me since you came here!" Qin Jiben looked at Qin Jizong and said.
"How could we eat human flesh! The Xiliang soldiers are simply monsters. They burned, killed, looted, raped and looted. They reduced everything in their path to ruins. The scene of eating human flesh was simply too horrific. Thousands of corpses were killed. He was hung up and disembowelled like a pig or sheep was being slaughtered. I still have nightmares every night!" Qin Jizhong's face was livid with fear. Thinking of the horrific and bloody scenes, his whole body trembled slightly. Zang Shun who followed him also turned blue. It seems that Dong Zhuo really left a psychological shadow on everyone.
Qin Jizong shouted softly: "Jizhong! We promised General Dong that day not to publicize this matter, how could you break your promise!"
After all, Qin Jizhong was young and shrank his neck and said: "My brothers and I have been in panic all day long. When I saw my brother today, I wanted to express my true feelings." The generals had different expressions when they heard this, but they were all frightened. This Dong Zhuo is simply a devil. .
Qin Ge was also shocked by this incident. As a modern man, he had also encountered perverted things, but the collective eating of human flesh by the troops was simply horrifying. Looking at several generals of the Wolf Cavalry, Qin Ge looked at the Leng Qiu said: "Don't you have a bunch of psychology talents entangled? I think we should provide psychological intervention to the Wolf Soldier Corps to prevent them from leaving evil thoughts!" Leng Qiu clasped his fists in response.
Mao Jie clenched his fists and said angrily: "It's a disaster for the common people that such human demons can hold high positions! It's appalling!"
Man Chong was also filled with righteous indignation and said: "This Dong Zhuo only openly cannibalizes people, but those Manchu noblemen, they drain the blood of the people and waste care for the common people, they secretly cannibalize people, this court is really hopeless!"
Qin Ge looked at the generals and said: "Dong Zhuo is the result of the Han Dynasty's distortion of power and the evil consequences of the noble clan. We should take this as a warning and strictly adhere to the bottom line. Since Ji Zong promised Dong Zhuo, we should not publicize it again!"
"Is Bo Xi here?" Cao Cao's voice came from outside the camp.
Qin Ge's face was full of doubts. At this time, he was like a god of plague, and everyone was trying to avoid him. Why did Cao Cao come to him in such a high-profile manner? He stood up and said: "Everyone, go back to each camp and restrain your brothers. During this period, nothing can happen." Necessary friction!" The generals took the order and left with fists clasped.
Qin Ge walked out of the military tent and saw Cao Cao wearing armor. He came over and said with a smile: "It's me, Meng Lang. It turns out you are holding a military meeting!"
Qin Ge welcomed Cao Cao into the tent and said with a wry smile: "What kind of military meeting? It's just that it's cold now and the brothers huddle together to keep warm! But Meng De, you are not afraid of getting bad luck when you come to this filthy place?"
Qin Ge took Cao Cao into the account. After Cao Cao took his seat, he smiled and said: "Cao sometimes really envy you, brother Qin. With such a group of confidants, you will never be lonely at any time! As for bad luck! I don't think so, but I came to Here, it’s like the warm spring sunshine, making people feel comfortable all over!”
Qin Ge poured Cao Cao a cup of hot tea and said, "I know Meng De likes to drink, but now in the military camp, he can only drink tea instead of wine!"
Cao Cao picked up the tea cup and said with a smile: "Bo Xi, you have always seemed to be alienated from me. Why are you so kind to me now?"
Qin Ge smiled bitterly and said: "Mengde is making fun of me! I have only respect for you. As for the estrangement you mentioned, because in our time and space, you were the number one hero throughout the ages. I was affected by the fixed mindset! And now, I, Qin Ge, am like a bedbug, even if they trample me to death, I feel stinky. You are the only one who can come at this time, so Qin can only be moved!"
