Zhao Hu stopped talking, and the other generals were just very unhappy with the bird civil officials.

Indeed, the performance of the civilian officials along the way has surprised everyone, and now the contempt for the civilian officials by the rebel army as a whole has reached a very serious level, and this is inevitable.

Xiao Ruxun was happy to see this scene.

Yuan Huang and Mei Guozhen couldn't say a word, and could only watch this group of generals express their contempt and dissatisfaction with civilian officials.

In the end, Xiao Ruxun ended the discussion with a speech.

"All in all, Ye Convention and I meet, I am going, you collect ships, step up the construction of ships, wait for Wuchang Mansion, I will march into Nanjing, and then go on the Northern Expedition, at that time it will be a decisive battle."

The generals were shocked, and shouted in unison with their fists: "Obey!" ”

"Stand down!"

"Yes!"

After the generals retreated, Xiao Ruxun left Yuan Huang and Mei Guozhen behind, and there were some things to discuss with them.

"Gong Yuan, Gong Mei, you say, will the Ye Guild believe what I say, and stand on my side and go north with me to crusade against Shen Yi?"

Yuan Huang stroked his beard and said slowly: "It is very likely, firstly, the relationship between you and Ye Mengxiong Gong is very good, and there is mutual trust between you, which is very rare, so the old man thinks that the possibility of success is very great." ”

Mei Guozhen didn't stop nodding.

"I thought it was the same, Ye Mengxiong Gong has a very high reputation, and he is the secretary of the Nanjing Military Department, and he is the head of the civil officials in the south of the Ming Dynasty, and his appeal is not the same as ours, if Ye Mengxiong Gong stands here with you, it means that half of the Ming Dynasty is standing here with you, and Shen has always been just a dry bone in the grave."

Seeing that the two henchmen said this, Xiao Ruxun smiled.

"In this way, the overall situation has been decided, and Shen has always been defeated! The world is finally saved! ”

Mei Guozhen couldn't stop nodding.

"When I see Shen Zhengyi, I will definitely ask him what kind of evil intentions he has!"

Yuan Huang didn't speak.

Glancing at the excited Xiao Ruxun, Yuan Huang hesitated slightly.

In the end, I decided to put the words in my heart for a while.

Looking at Xiao Ruxun, who was excitedly discussing with Mei Guozhen about entering the army later, Yuan Huang spoke.

"Ji Xin, there are some things that the old man feels necessary to say to you."

Xiao Ruxun and Mei Guozhen looked at Yuan Huang together.

"Yuan Gong, please speak."

Xiao Ruxun looked at Yuan Huang.

"Ji Xin, maybe this is the old man's overthinking, but the old man still wants to remind you that now the rebel army is flourishing, and the generals are high-spirited, which is a good thing, but you should also pay attention to the ensuing increasing arrogance of the generals.

It is not without reason that I am unifying the military with literature, the old things of the five dynasties at the end of the Tang Dynasty, the warlord secession, you can take it as a warning, and now the rebel army has no opponent in the world, although it is a good thing, but it is also becoming more and more unscrupulous, only obey you, this is not just a good thing.

When he was in Burma, the old man felt that the heart of the army was on you alone, and the army only served you, which can certainly smoothly command the rebel army, but it is not without hidden dangers, do you know, others don't say, but say that General Zhao Hu Zhao, when you go to the Central Plains for a long time and don't return, but you said that if you have an accident, you will raise troops to the north to rescue you. ”

Mei Guozhen was stunned for a moment, and then looked at Xiao Ruxun.

Xiao Ruxun savored Yuan Huang's words.

"What does Yuan Gong mean?"

"The old man has no other meaning, he just hopes that Ji Xin will be careful about using the army, soldiers, major affairs of the country, the place of death and life, and the way of survival, this is the precept of the ancients, soldiers, the ancients had to use it as a last resort, and now it is a last resort, but what if the world is calm?"

Yuan Huang looked at Xiao Ruxun.

Xiao Ruxun was silent for a while.

He understood what Yuan Huang meant.

But he decided to refute.

"It is precisely because of the use of literature to unify the military, and even to suppress the military with literature, that Shen has always been defeated by me, Yuan Gong, I raised an army to rebel, not only for the rebellion itself, but also to solve all the injustices I saw in the process of rebellion, otherwise, what is the point of me raising an army?

They followed me from birth to death, fighting desperately for me and for the Ming Dynasty, but do I have to calculate them behind my back? Because of the use of literature to unify the military, the Song Dynasty died in Jin, and died in the Mengyuan Dynasty, which was extremely humiliating, because of the use of literature to unify the military, the Ming Dynasty has come to this point, and the million army is not the opponent of my 100,000 army, Yuan Gong, can't you see which is better or worse? ”

Xiao Ruxun's words not only made Yuan Huang speechless, but also made Mei Guozhen speechless.

Yuan Huang and Mei Guozhen looked at each other, and the helplessness in each other's eyes was difficult to hide.

Everyone saw how the civilian and military generals along the way governed the localities, how weak the local defenses were, how many people bent their knees, and how few loyal people were.

That's why the army is becoming more and more disrespectful to civilian officials, more and more contemptuous of civilian officials, and contemptuous of those who grovel to the knees.

In their case, they will also despise those who have no integrity.

"Today's scholars have a low temperament and a high desire that is unprecedentedly high, how many scholars and doctors I have seen who are dedicated to the country and have no selfish intentions? The sergeant has not read the Four Books and the Five Classics, but he knows the same loyalty, filial piety, righteousness, and honesty, but I found that many people who read poetry and books do not have a sense of shame at all!

Furthermore, the ancients said that the way of survival in the land of death and life must not be ignored, "must not be ignored"! This is to make us pay attention, let us use a lot of energy to pay attention to instead of restricting the army, without the army, what do we take to defend the territory, what do we take to defend the foreign humiliation?

Shen has always paid enough attention to the army, and I will be killed by Chen Yongbin if I can't even get out of Burma! Where is today? The soldiers of the Ming Dynasty fought bloodily on the frontier to defend their families and defend the country, but they hated those powerful gentry who enjoyed this peace of mind while stabbing them in the back!

The soldiers are all warriors worthy of respect, and they are men who stand up to the sky! It's not a thief! I don't care what others think of the army, at least under my Xiao someone's hands, I will never allow anyone to insult my soldiers! ”

After that, Xiao Ruxun left the conference hall angrily, Mei Guozhen frowned and said nothing, while Yuan Huang watched Xiao Ruxun leave angrily, first stunned, and then full of chagrin.

"Gong Yuan, Ji Xin was originally a military general, and he didn't fall behind any of the generals he suffered, and he was almost killed by Shen Yiyi, isn't it tantamount to blaming him if you say it directly to him?"

Mei Guozhen looked at Yuan Huang and shook his head: "Why not be more tactful?" If it was more tactful, Ji Xin might accept it, right? ”

Yuan Huang sat down in his chair and sighed.

"Blame me, blame me, I'm too anxious, seeing that the arrogance of the army is better than day by day, I am very worried that the army will get out of control, why did the former Song Dynasty restrict the generals and the army so much, don't they know the consequences of doing that?

But everyone knows that Xiucai has failed to rebel for ten years, but the generals can divide and rebel, and Zhao Kuangyin himself is also a military general, so why do that? Isn't it also that it will be dangerous to find that the army is inflated and not suppressed? ”

Mei Guozhen said softly: "I believe Ji Xin can also see this kind of thing, he has read books and history books, it is impossible for him not to understand, but Yuan Gong, you said this, it was not the right time to say it, it hurt Ji Xin's heart." ”

Yuan Huang rubbed his temples.

"Find a time, I'll go and compensate Ji Xin, right......"
