Xu Tong explained Su Yonglin's questions very clearly.
"This is natural. If a person does not have the heart to serve the country and the people, and only thinks about his own achievements and future generations, no matter how good he is in fighting, he will not make me admire him.
The ancients said that a general's achievements are worth tens of thousands of bones. If it is just a battlefield, there is nothing wrong with it. It is impossible for a war to kill people. But if I use the lives of innocent people to achieve my own merits, then I will never take this kind of credit. "
Su Yonglin thought about the battle experiences of famous generals from ancient to modern times that he knew.
This is a very insightful summary, but then again, if it is just fighting on the battlefield, then death in battle is unavoidable, and no matter how good a general is, he cannot prevent his subordinates from dying in battle. .
It's just that on other levels, if non-combat attrition and civilian deaths in war zones are not well controlled, then the general's credit must be carefully discussed.
For example, some inhumane people use civilians in war zones as military rations. No matter how great their achievements and achievements, they will be nailed to the pillar of shame.
The poor bones by the Wuding River are like people in a boudoir's dream. These two lines of poems have been the most emotional for Su Yonglin since he led the army to fight.
Therefore, he paid special attention to the battlefield medical support system, thus establishing a powerful Ming army logistics support system, and poured money into it at all costs.
He was very happy that Xu Tong had such a sentiment.
"So, are you also willing to use your abilities to do your best to seek welfare for the people?"
"I'll do my best."
Xu Tong nodded without hesitation.
"Okay, then I have an important task for you."
Su Yonglin pointed to the southwest of Zhongdu and said: "The people of Sichuan and Shu need you. When the Ming Dynasty does not have the extra strength to send troops into Sichuan and Shu for the time being, I need you to become the second Zhao Yucheng, leading an army The small team enters Sichuan and Sichuan, develops resistance forces on the spot, and fights under the eyes of the enemy, are you willing?"
"Sichuan and Shu?"
"Yes, Sichuan."
Su Yonglin nodded: "You should already know about the appearance of a court in Sichuan and Sichuan, right?"
Xu Tong nodded.
"Yes, I already know that it is simply wishful thinking for the Sichuan, Shu and Song people to support a new emperor to fight against the Ming Dynasty."
"Having said that, we cannot underestimate them. I have decided to impose an economic blockade on them. This will definitely cause internal unrest in Sichuan and Sichuan, triggering public protests and even uprisings. This is an excellent opportunity for us. "
Su Yonglin said: "This opportunity is an important opportunity for us to develop and expand the Sichuan-Shu branch of the Renaissance Society. If we can mobilize the people within Sichuan and Shu to resist the Chengdu court, the effect will be much better than if we directly send troops in.
So I decided to select a team of capable cadres to enter Sichuan and Shu. After entering Sichuan and Shu, the local Skynet Army organization will assist this team. They need to develop and grow under the eyes of the enemy, persist in the struggle, and persist until the army Go south. "
Xu Tong took a deep breath, nodded slowly, and smiled.
"This doesn't seem to be a difficult thing. The chairman shouldn't have forgotten that I was promoted because of this, right? For me, this is just another action."
"Of course, but there is no Wu Lin in Jiangxi. If you go to Sichuan and Shu now, you will directly face Wu Lin and his army."
Su Yonglin smiled and said: "Like Jiangxi, Sichuan and Sichuan also have quite a lot of mountains and mountain people. There are enough places for you to hide and avoid the enemy's troops, and it will also give you the opportunity to give full play to your abilities."
Su Yonglin handed Xu Tong a topographic map of Sichuan and Sichuan.
"How about it, are you willing to go?"
Xu Tong took this relatively detailed topographic map of Sichuan and Sichuan and looked at it.
"I am a revival member, and the task assigned to me by the revival association is my mission. I will not reject my own mission."
Su Yonglin smiled.
"Really? You are now the deputy director of the Military Affairs Department of the Jiangxi branch and a general of an army. You have a very high status. There is no need to go into danger alone. I entrust you with this task. For you, it is a certain It’s not fair in a sense.”
"Revolution is the greatest fairness. Everything I have is given to me by the revolution, so wherever revolution is needed, I will go."
Xu Tong grinned and said: "And I believe in myself. Even if I leave my job temporarily, I can still achieve a higher position and lead more troops in the future!"
"Well done."
Su Yonglin patted Xu Tong on the shoulder and said with a smile: "I will do my best to provide you with support, but other than that, you have to rely on yourself, how to develop the army, how to develop the base, and how to fight against Wu when it is still weak. Lin, it's all up to you.
I will arrange for the army to threaten northern and eastern Sichuan and Shu at all times, forcing Wu Lin to invest a large number of troops in defense. If I cannot go all out to deal with you, you must seize the opportunity and seize the time and do everything possible to establish our base in Sichuan and Shu. The governance after the army went south is also of great significance. "
"I see."
Xu Tong put away the topographical map, stood up, and gave a military salute to Su Yonglin.
"My subordinates will never disappoint the chairman's expectations!"
"Be careful."
Su Yonglin gave him few instructions, because Su Yonglin felt that Xu Tong was already a mature warrior.
For a mature warrior, trust is his greatest support. If he lets him operate, he will definitely bring huge gains to Su Yonglin.
After selecting the candidate, the Organization Department of the Renaissance Association equipped Xu Tong with a complete basic team as quickly as possible.
The Organization Department arranged a group of capable political cadres, economic cadres and military cadres for Xu Tong. Not only that, but also transferred several craftsmen with relevant technologies from the General Administration of Firearms to join them, preparing for Xu Tong and others to find their own after entering Sichuan. Raw materials are used to build firearms troops.
In mid-April of the sixth year of Hongwu's reign, Su Yonglin established the Sichuan-Sichuan branch of the Fuxing Society in Zhongdu.
Xu Tong served as the director of the Sichuan-Shu branch of the Fuxing Society and the head of the Military Affairs Department, and Xu Tong's old partner Zhou Qiang, secretary of Yiyongjun, served as the deputy director of the Sichuan-Sichuan branch of the Fuxing Society and the head of the General Affairs Department.
After the Sichuan-Shu branch was established, each member had an initial run-in and understanding, and then went to Kaifeng together, and further went to Xiangfan to prepare. Then they would enter Sichuan-Shu from the mountainous area with the help of the Henan Corps and the Tianwang Army. place.
The Skynet Army will contact organizations in Sichuan and Sichuan to pick them up on the other side, take them to a safe place, and then prepare for the event after resting.
They need to understand the internal situation in the Sichuan-Sichuan region through the Skynet Army, and then consider where to launch operations.
What is clear is that although the land of Sichuan and Shu has revolutionary soil, it is limited by the closed geographical environment and difficult roads. Except for the Chengdu area, people here seem to have little understanding of the Ming Dynasty revolution, and they do not know the political ecology of the Ming Dynasty. .
Therefore, just like the situation on Jiangnan West Road, it took some local spontaneous actions to resist the imperial court before the Renaissance organization could find every opportunity to intervene.
And will there be spontaneous resistance against the Chengdu court in the land of Sichuan and Shu?
no doubt.
Of course.
Faced with the economic recession caused by the economic sanctions initiated by the Ming Dynasty, the Chengdu court had no response measures.
This situation also appeared in the Ming Dynasty. After the commercial and financial bubble burst, the Ming Dynasty also had a large number of urban unemployed people.
However, the Ming Dynasty experienced a complete social revolution, and the imperial court had a large amount of land, food, and funds, which was enough to arrange the unemployed people in cities and towns to return to their places of origin to work in agriculture.
The huge scale of state-owned agricultural land has become the biggest reliance on a soft landing in this business crisis.
While bursting the false financial bubble, Su Yonglin began to arrange for grassroots organizations to transfer large-scale urban citizens back to the land, successfully protected the Ming Dynasty's economy and situation from a soft landing, stabilized the Ming Dynasty's basic market, and survived this crisis without any danger. crisis and restart development.
Nowadays, the total agricultural production of the Ming Dynasty has been rising year after year, and the impact of the collapse of commercial finance has been fully buffered and disappeared by the vast territory.
But does the Chengdu court have this ability?
No.
If their leader had been Zhuge Liang, then the Chengdu court might have been able to survive a round or two, but unfortunately, there was only one Zhuge Liang in the ages.
