Chapter 290: Self-interest and Others

Some choices are the most distressing in many cases, especially when the move is uncertain.

Gongwei is not a well-known filial son, but he also respects his father who raised him with hard work. Now there is no such thing as "loyalty and filial piety cannot be both", and there is no idea that "the country is big, and the private family is small".

It is said that there is no country where to come from, but in fact, the country is not composed of one family after another? It should be that there is a family before the country, and the family can't take care of it, so how can you still consider the country.

The phrase "how can the world be leveled if the family is not peaceful" will make the rulers scoff, and sacrificing for the sake of the country has always been advocated. In many cases, the ruler supports "sacrificing the ego (family) to achieve the great self (country)", because someone needs to sacrifice to maintain the rule, and usually the person who sacrifices will always be the smallest person, and the same "righteousness" will have more different interpretations when it is the turn of the powerful. So in the usual case, "righteousness" is both privileged. Of course, there are no absolutes in things, it is people who look at things, and people who do things, as long as they are people, they will have their own subjectivity and right and wrong, and they cannot be generalized.

Does the lieutenant have the "righteousness" in his heart? Yes, everyone has their own "righteousness", so "righteousness" is also belief.

Position determines right and wrong; The butt determines the head; My heroes are enemies. What the lieutenant needs is to determine his position, see if the position under the ass is on Lu Zhe's side, or if he wants to move his ass and sit on Xiang's side. He can become a hero who makes Chu State hate on Lu Zhe's side, and he can also turn into an enemy of more than two million people in Nanjun, Hengshan County, and Cangwu County

Gongwei has the idea that people should have at the moment, it is not a complicated "family and country", but a very simple "Gu family". To put it more clearly, that is, how should he choose the most beneficial side for the family, which requires thinking about whether Lu Zhe is more promising, or whether Chu can get ahead.

It's a very simple contrast, the lieutenant still insists on his own ideas. Chu is the "shell" of the Xiang clan to conquer the world, it is difficult for the Xiang clan to have a chance to get ahead in the Chu state, Huan Chu, who was an old minister of the Chu state, still does not believe that the Xiang clan can be rich and noble, can he not worry about the Xiang clan's increase even if it really comes true, but can he still keep his promise when he doesn't need himself?

Looking at Lu Zhe again, Gongwei has always felt that Lu Zhe is a master who does what he says, cherishes his position and is indifferent to wealth, and believes that whoever trusts him will be entrusted with important tasks.

Oh, the above words are more profound and good-sounding, in fact, to put it bluntly, Lu Zhe is a person who does not take power lightly. It's very generous to money.,But after appointing someone, it's always a matter of letting people do it.。

Gongwei has never received a verbal or literal promise from Lu Zhe, saying that he will be a marquis and a fief in the future、...... And so on and so forth.

Whether it is Gongwei, or Ji Bu, Su Lie, Mei Kai, Xu Zhi, Mian Bi, Zhao Xian, Kunchuan, Wu Liang, and other people who follow Lu Zhe from Yiling to Weimo, what they hear most from Lu Zhe is "How much effort should be put in if you want to have what kind of achievements, status, power and wealth, and hard work is true." Yes, that's right, only the rewards of the effort you should have paid off are heavy. Otherwise, who can enjoy the gift of promises and favors with peace of mind?

Meritorious service, where does the family business come from without merit? When Lu Zhe was talking to them, he always spoke very thoroughly. That is a simple statement that clearly expresses the hard work together and finally sharing the wealth! It is more real than any vague promise. It's reassuring.

If he had listened to his father's previous betrayal, the military law Cao and Zhangzuo would not be on his side, and the lieutenant knew this. He made the necessary trade-offs, but they were just the ones that people think about when they are confronted with a choice. Human nature is understandable, and it is not necessary to talk about anything big.

People are always just looking at what they do. As for what is thought in the heart, it should not be used as a reason for criticism. If right and wrong are judged from inner thinking, it is called "the sin of belly discussion". If you think that a person who only thinks and does not do is guilty, it is also called "unwarranted".

Of course, many people don't like this kind of conclusion, but people are human because they are intelligent, they know how to think, and they know how to weigh them. The lack of ideological ethics is unpleasant, but whether it is in the past or in the future, such things can never be broken.

Military Law Cao sent his subordinate soldiers to patrol around, and also repeated the propaganda of the order to go to war, and the soldiers in the township were limited to a certain time to be in the barracks, so there were soldiers everywhere who returned to the station.

The composition of the soldiers in Hengshan County is a bit complicated, it should be that five-tenths of the soldiers are from the remnants of the Six Kingdoms, three-tenths are from Nanjun, and two-tenths are locals of Hengshan County.

Most of the soldiers from the remnants of the Six Kingdoms among them are soldiers, and they are also a relatively early group of people who have always attached importance to forming an army, if you want to compare any loyalty, these people's loyalty to Lu Zhe should be the highest.

The soldiers from Nanjun are a category that joined the army late, and most of them envy the treatment of soldiers before they enlist when recruiting, because the family members living in the counties of Nanjun enjoy good treatment because they have become a member of the army, and this group of people has no shortage of loyalty to Lu Zhe.

And these soldiers in Hengshan County, Hengshan County has not been in the hands of Lu Zhe for a long time, and a series of policies to benefit the people in Nanjun have just begun, and these people basically entered the military camp as soldiers just for food, so they have no loyalty to Lu Zhe.

Originally, how could anyone be grateful to someone for no reason? Only after getting the corresponding respect and benefits will there be a good feeling, Lu Zhe knows this better than anyone else will there be a series of measures to benefit the people, as long as he insists on making the head of the Qiantou under his rule can get benefits under his rule, then the foundation can be stabilized.

The military lawyer Cao was busy with his own affairs, and the civilian officials in the army were not idle.

Because of the snatching of millions of stone of grain from Baiyue, Lu Zhejun did not lack military rations, and the commander of the army wrote an order to transfer how much grain from the granary to become military rations, and the grain officer in the army naturally led people to load the prescribed grain into trucks and prepare for departure.

An army needs a lot of equipment in addition to soldiers and food and grass, so if there is a grain officer, there will be a craftsman officer, a medical officer, a livestock officer, and so on.

Craftsman officers are a type of civilian officials who are responsible for leading craftsmen in the army, mainly responsible for repairing the damaged weapons of the soldiers, and are also responsible for leading a group of craftsmen to produce supplementary arrows and other consumable equipment for the army.

Not to mention the duties of the medical officer, he is the head of a group of medical craftsmen, and he is also the most indispensable group of people in every army.

The livestock officer is literally well understood, and is responsible for the management of animals such as chickens, ducks, geese, pigs, dogs, cows, horses, etc. in the army. Except for the horses, the rest were slaughtered animals for the soldiers to eat.

However, there are many kinds of livestock officials, this official position in the Central Plains is only responsible for the care of war horses, and is responsible for the management of cattle and other livestock Under normal circumstances, Hu has similar officials, and the Qin army will also have this official position, but not every Qin army has it.

Lu Zhe set up a livestock officer because he attached great importance to the food match of the soldiers, otherwise he just ate food and consumed very terrifying, and he actually didn't know that only the Hu and Qin people would carry so many livestock in the army at the moment. It's not that other armies don't have meat, it's that other armies can eat meat that is basically slaughtered and processed from other places.

"The lord did not plan which route to Jiujiang from, but looking at the map, there are two roads that are most suitable for our army to walk." The communist's tone of voice, which had calmed down, was as calm as usual, and he pointed to the topographic map of the mountains and rivers: "All the way is the direction of Anfeng, and our army can march from there to Jiujiang all the way east to take the six counties, and then turn south to meet the army of Su Lie and Shu in Lixian; On the other hand, we marched to Yixian, where we waited for the fleet of ships to and from Nanjun and Huizhang Danyang. ”

In fact, the garrison of Hengshan County also needs to protect the safety of the Yangtze River, after all, now Lu Zhe's supplies in Huizhang County are completely dependent on waterways, so Su Lie will stay in Jiujiang County to cleanse the forces of the Xiang clan with the Shu clan, and also suppress the armed forces of the remaining Jiujiang County forces along the Yangtze River.

"To walk the Anfeng line, our army will need to walk for about five days, and the time to capture the six counties cannot be guessed, depending on the number of local garrisons and combat effectiveness. However, once the six counties are taken, our army will have one more stronghold in Jiujiang in addition to the original Anfeng and the stable nest behind, and the three counties of Anfeng, Liuxian and Juchao will be owned by our army, and they will formally occupy more initiative. Gongwei's explanation was not superfluous, and he explained the pros and cons of taking the waterway: "It only takes two days to reach the nest by water, and the advantage is that you can quickly meet Su Lie and Shu's family. Looking at the generals present, he asked, "Where do you think you should go?" ”

There will be a few independent battles in Anfeng, which is expected by the generals who have not experienced a few major battles. After they became the garrison of Hengshan County, they were just fighting a little to clear some of the remaining bandits, which was not a war achievement, the last time they went to support Lu Zhe, they didn't catch up with the big battle, and they saw that the other brother troops continued to make great achievements, and they ran or ran in addition to running, and now is the time when the sense of war is the strongest.

"Commander, did the Lord say when it was necessary to meet with the troops led by the Su?" Someone asked.

Gongwei shook his head: "The lord only ordered us to march into Jiujiang County, and did not stipulate when it was necessary to join Su Lie and Shu. ”

The endorsement of the military law Cao and Zhangzuo for the co-lieutenant proves that there is indeed no provision in the military order.

There's a lot of room for autonomy, huh? They thought about it, it seemed that everyone on the Anfeng front line could more or less have a battle and a meritorious service, so they all felt that since they would not miss the military order, and at the same time, they could also have an advantage in attacking Jiujiang County for their side, so there was nothing to hesitate.

"So ......" the lieutenant finalized: "Take the front line of Anfeng!" (To be continued......)
