Chapter 370: Liang Xing punishes spies and the three elders go to the court (4)
Those who win the hearts of the people win the world, and all those who are in the court understand the truth.
Zong Ze understands, Liu Xing naturally understands, and naturally knows what his words mean.
"In the past, the actions of the Tiance Guardian Assassin Battalion did cause too many injuries and deaths to civilians in the Southern Dynasties. This, I know is wrong, and it will make the people's hearts turn against King Kang, and I admit that it was my mistake that I failed to premeditate in advance. He first admitted his mistake, and Liu Xing showed a hint of apology when he spoke.
But as soon as his words changed, Liu Xing re-revealed a resolute and sure expression and said: "If you want to fight the opponent, there must be sacrifices." The sacrifice of the assassins is great enough, and I will not sacrifice the hearts and minds of the people again. That's why I've reformulated a new credo for the 3,000 Assassins in the Assassin Battalion, which is to 'kill as little as possible, and focus on protecting the people when they are in danger.' ”
Stopping again, Liu Xing turned his head and cast a glance at Liang Xing.
When Liang Xing saw this gaze, he immediately opened his mouth and said: "Loving the people and protecting the people is a tradition left by our army since the era of the Red Turban Army. Those people, naturally, would not pay too much attention to the safety of the people around them when they launched the assassination operation. ”
After a slight pause, Liang Xing took out a small notebook from his arms, opened it and continued: "But judging from the current situation of my Tiance Guard, the first three batches of most of the thorns from the rivers and lakes totaled two hundred and twenty-one, and now there are only one hundred and twenty people left. And these 120 people have now become instructors in various secret camps. ”
As he spoke, after turning the pages of the small notebook, Liang Xing continued: "According to the Taifu's order." Our Heavenly Guardian Assassin Battalion has stopped recruiting assassins since a month ago. Transferred to recruiting excellent officers and soldiers in the army. The 30,000 assassins-elect are currently undergoing special training in the three battalions of the dead. All of them came from various units of our Korean army, and I believe that there will be no more assassinations and accidental injuries to the people of the Southern Dynasties in the future. ”
"Three, thirty thousand assassins-elect!"
Before Liang Xing's words fell, Zong Ze couldn't help but widen his eyes and looked at him in astonishment: "Could it be that all those soldiers who have mysteriously disappeared in the army recently have entered your dead soldier camp?" ”
Hearing this, he raised his head and smiled faintly at Zong Ze, Liang Xingzheng said: "Yes, and not only in the army, but also in the patrol, river engineering, river transportation, and education camps in various places. There are also many who are now being elected to the assassinate. However, these 30,000 people will eventually be able to get out of the special training camp and officially join the dead soldiers' camp, but there will be no more than 3,000 at most. ”
As soon as he heard this, Zong Ze turned from astonishment to disbelief, staring at Liang Xing and said, "Only 3,000 of the 30,000 people can finally join the Dead Soldier Camp, so where will the remaining 27,000 people go in the future?" ”
Being asked like this, Liang Xing didn't dare to answer directly, and immediately cast a begging glance at Liu Xing for help.
With their eyes on each other, Liu Xing immediately spoke: "All those who enter the secret camp for special training are all parents and wives and children at home, and people who are unique. Out of 30,000 came 3,000. Those who were eliminated either died in special training, stayed in the secret camp to do things, or specialized in other things of Tiance Guard. ”
There was a pause in speech. A frosty smile appeared on Liu Xing's face, and he continued: "In short, only those who survive the special training in purgatory will be worthy of the little master's Tiance Guard in the future. Only those who can get out of the special training camp for the dead alive are qualified to continue to serve our dynasty. Only those who can live are qualified to be the backbone of our future. ”
"Purgatory Training!"
After hearing Liu Xing's words, Zong Ze's expression changed from surprise to horror: "The suffering of purgatory is difficult for the world to bear. Taifu used the name of purgatory to define that special training, believing that it would be cruel at a certain time. However, to let 30,000 good men be trained by their own brothers in purgatory, this, this seems to be too contrary to human ethics and morality! ”
"Humanity and morality?"
Hearing Zong Ze's words, Liu Xing's smile became a little sinister and said: "When the two armies are fighting, who will pay attention to humanity and morality?" When two countries compete, who cares about humanity and morality? Zong Shuai, you are also a veteran marshal who has been on the battlefield for a long time, when have you ever seen someone who really talks about humanity and morality on the battlefield? 30,000 people, compared to 30 million soldiers and civilians of our dynasty, to sacrifice one-thousandth in exchange for 99/1,000 of safety, even if it violates human ethics and morality? ”
In wars between countries, who will talk about benevolence, righteousness and morality? In the bloody war between nations, who cares about human relations?
Zong Ze understood these truths, because he couldn't remember clearly, he had resorted to a lot of poisonous schemes on the battlefield in order to kill the retreating Jin soldiers. After his poisonous trick was carried out, the three words of humanity, morality, and benevolence no longer exist at all, and can only be regarded as a joke.
Similarly, the cruelty of the golden dog, the ferocity of the Jurchens, and the viciousness of King Kang Zhao Gou. If Liu Xing does not train a group of assassins who can really stab the enemy chieftain without a fight and stop the battle at the end of the war, I am afraid that at any time, the 30 million people of the Northern Dynasty may face the trampling of the enemy's iron cavalry again, and then be swallowed up by the flames of war......
Zong Ze stopped talking, he just nodded with a heavy expression, and stopped talking. Because he firmly believed that Liu Xing's sacrifice of one-thousandth of the people in exchange for the safety of the 999th of the 1,000 Li people of the Northern Dynasty was far smaller than the sacrifice of fighting and killing with a large army in the future, and it was worth it.
Just as Zong Ze nodded and stopped speaking, Zhang Suo, who had already vomited to the point that his face was bloodless, turned around and staggered back to the lobby.
Without waiting for him to stand firm, Liu Xing snapped off: "Come on, take down Zhang Taibao." He was stripped of his title as a member of the Imperial Council, removed from his position as a fellow privy councilor, and relieved of his powers as a second assistant to the cabinet. He was immediately taken to the camp outside the south gate to be guarded, and after we arrived in Bianjing, the three legal divisions would try and convict him. ”
"Ahh
Shocked to hear this, Zhang Xian fell to the ground with a "plop". His body was already vomiting exhausted, and he passed out before his butt hit the ground.
At this time, Wang Gao and Ye Mengde also staggered into the lobby, hearing and witnessing this scene, they were immediately frightened and each held on to a door frame and sat on the ground softly.
"Whoever leaks our military aircraft is a felony. Although they were unintentional and did not collaborate with the enemy, the three of them caused great damage to the safety of all the people of our dynasty in the real sense. Someone came, and put the two of them and Zhang Suo down for me. Seeing that the two of them were also sitting at the door, Liu Xing shouted again.
With Liu Xing's shouting, Lei Zhen beckoned, and several of the forbidden soldiers who were carrying the three white bones and Zhao Maode into the lobby rushed to the three of them, and immediately stood up and carried the three of them out of the hall without saying anything.
