Ren Jun drank the wine and said,
"With Pang Shou's character, there is a high probability that he will take the initiative to attack, and then it will be a replica of the Hanzhong County battle. Most of them were annihilated and a few were captured alive."
"Yes, but if you lead them, it will be different. You can completely rely on me, and then we will go to recover Dafengheshan together. We can raise our heads and live uprightly. No one needs to die so many people.
I am very merciful in fighting. General Ren must also know that I never kill prisoners. In battle, if I defeat the enemy, I will also capture and surround them alive. In my army, the reward for capturing a prisoner alive is Killing an enemy three times means that my army is not bloodthirsty.
The reason is that I am a Feng people, and my enemy is also a Feng people. When I think of Feng people killing each other and foreign countries watching the joke, I feel sad.
If you return to the capital this time and Pang Shou takes them, our two armies, the Feng people, will kill each other. No matter whether my people die or the people on the opposite side die, the people who die will be the Feng people and the young people will die. , all that is consumed is our national strength and manpower.
After this battle is over, the main force of the enemy army will be annihilated, right? By then, at least hundreds of thousands of people will have died.
General Ren, whether you want to sacrifice your small family to protect everyone, or sacrifice everyone to protect your small family, the choice is in your hands. "
The porcelain wine glass in Ren Jun's hand was suddenly crushed by him, and his eyes gradually turned red, which showed how hesitant and struggling he was in his heart.
Nie Chen continued,
"Of course, everyone values different things. I won't kidnap you morally because of this matter. It's understandable that you care about your family. People who don't even care about their own family's lives will naturally not care about others. life.
It is human nature to protect family members. Isn’t it the reason why soldiers join the army to protect their families and hometown?
Even if you choose to return to the capital to protect your family, I will not blame you or have any prejudice against you. On the contrary, I will ask those officials and ministers who have been bribed by me to intercede for you and strive for a result of house arrest.
After I capture the capital and eliminate Mingxuan, I will still invite you to come out and let you work for me and take charge of the legion. You don’t need to worry about this.
I am not Mingxuan, and I will not threaten you with my family and justice.
I still say the same thing, the choice is in your hands, I just give you the choice. "
Ren Jun's hand was bleeding from the fragments of the cup, but he turned a blind eye and was completely immersed in his inner world.
After a while, Ren Jun stood up, held his hands and bowed to Nie Chen.
Nie Chen smiled.
However, Ren Jun said,
"Sorry, I still have to go back to the capital."
The smile on Nie Chen's face gradually faded away. After a moment, he smiled leisurely and said,
"Can I hear why?"
Ren Jun sat down again and said seriously,
“When you are in this world, you should be loyal and righteous. The Lord can betray me, but I cannot betray the Lord!
Mingxuan can't forgive me, but I can't betray him. As long as he's still alive, I can't do anything to feel sorry for him.
Similarly, if I surrender you and work for you in the future, I will not betray you. Even if you cut me to pieces, I will not betray you.
This is the loyalty in my heart.
As for the 200,000 troops, I can only ask Mr. Nie, for the sake of the fact that we are all Feng people, and for the sake of your benevolence, Mr. Nie, stop killing more and give them a chance to surrender. They, They are all arrogant. "
This time, Nie Chen was silent.
For any lord, the sentence "The Lord can betray me, but I cannot betray the Lord" has great lethality.
Yes, if Ren Jun is a capricious, duplicitous man who loves military power and follows him today, abandoning his family's lives and rebelling against Mingxuan, will he be seduced by the enemy again tomorrow and rebel against him?
When the time comes, I don't even have a family member who can restrain him. Can I really trust him to hand over the army to him?
But if Ren Jun is loyal to Mingxuan now, he will also be loyal to himself in the future. He can remain loyal in the face of the coercion of justice and various temptations. Then, he will not worry at all in the future. He will rebel.
Thinking of this, Nie Chen nodded and said,
"You are right. I admire General Ren's loyalty. I will remember your words."
"Three glasses of wine have passed. I had a great time drinking with the general. I'll say goodbye today. I hope that one day, you and I can have a good time in the capital city."
Nie Chen stood up, held his hands and said,
"Farewell."
"Farewell to Mr. Nie."
Ren Jun stood up and held his hands.
Nie Chen took Zhou An and the escorts, got up and walked outside.
When he walked to the door, Nie Chen suddenly turned to Ren Jun and said,
"Your loyalty and my benevolence, if we are united in the future, we will be invincible."
Ren Jun did not speak. At this time, it was not appropriate for him to say too many words of loyalty to Nie Chen.
Suddenly, Nie Chen saw a soldier sitting at the door, his face still wrapped in gauze, and he couldn't help but ask,
"What happened to your face? Was it scratched by an arrow or gravel?"
"No, he was beaten by Pang Shou. He tried to hit me to death when he entered the city gate, but I dodged him, so he whipped me to vent his anger."
The soldier said quickly.
As soon as he mentioned this matter, he was filled with anger.
Hearing this, Nie Chen chuckled and got to know Pang Shou better.
"Do you want revenge?"
"think."
The soldier said without hesitation.
"Come with me if you want. I will take you to take revenge and kill Pang De."
Hearing this, the soldier looked at Ren Jun with some hesitation and some desire.
Ren Jun sighed and said,
"If you want to go, go ahead. Anyway, if you follow me to the capital, you will suffer along with me."
The soldier stood up, hugged Ren Jun and said,
"Commander, I will go with Lord Nie first. If the villain is lucky enough to survive and arrive in the capital one day, I am willing to continue to serve the commander."
"Hahaha, okay, okay, it seems that General Ren really loves his soldiers as much as his son. Let's go."
Nie Chen smiled and went out.
The group of people mounted their horses and galloped toward the north on the night road.
After Nie Chen left, Ren Jun found a piece of white cloth and casually bandaged the wound on his hand while thinking about the wonderful encounter with Nie Chen today.
It is true that Nie Chen is really a smart man. His clever tricks made Mingxuan play around, making Mingxuan act according to Nie Chen's rhythm step by step.
In Ren Jun's view, Nie Chen is very strong. This young man is excellent in all aspects. He can make and invent weapons, lead troops to fight, inspire people, know how to make good use of people, promote commanders, and is good at strategy.
But what really made him rise so quickly, Ren Jun felt, these were not important factors.
The most important thing is Nie Chen's... benevolence and righteousness.
Because of benevolence and righteousness, there were so many enemy soldiers who were willing to serve him and fight against him, so he could expand so quickly.
