The ass determines the head, and the head determines thinking.

Although this was the most serious conflict between Cheng Shijie and Ning Haijun since Ning Haijun became an army, there was really no fault in this conflict.

Do you want to say that Meng En and Admiral Ning were wrong?
In fact, they are not wrong. They are just considering what may happen in the future and planning a way out for themselves in advance. Is this wrong?It is only human nature to punish others for their own sake, and there is nothing wrong with that.

What's more, they just want to use the hands of the slaves to get rid of those bastards in the capital, those worms in the country. To be fair, this is indeed a solution to the problem.

However, the problem is that from Cheng Shijie's perspective, this incident is like a very famous joke in later generations: "A madman tied up five innocent people on the railway track, and also tied up another track." You killed an innocent person, and now a train is passing by. You can change the track of the train, but will you step off the track and sacrifice one innocent person to save the lives of five other innocent people?”

Now Cheng Shijie is just the man standing next to the track. He has no ability to stop the huge inertia of history, but he can step off the track and change the direction of the train.

Sacrificing the lives of Navy officers Ning can certainly reduce losses, but it is equivalent to one person on this track, and the people of Gyeonggi are those five people.But the problem is that although Ning Haijun is a professional army in Cheng Shijie's mind, although Cheng Shijie has trained them more than once, they should not be loyal to Cheng Shijie, but to this country, but in the minds of Ning Haijun, they are not A professional national army, but just Cheng Shijie's personal private army.

They did not owe the Ming Dynasty anything, but they owed Cheng Shijie. They could die for Cheng Shijie without hesitation. Just like now, in order to awaken the confused Cheng Shijie, they did not hesitate to kill themselves and use blood to stimulate Cheng Shijie to awaken him.

Cheng Shijie is still thinking about this problem. In fact, this problem is almost unsolvable. When Admiral Ning stops Jian Nu from going south at all costs, Admiral Ning will definitely sacrifice his life and countless soldiers will die in battle. Could it be said that the Ming Dynasty The lives of the common people are important, but the life of Admiral Ning is important?

It is your fate as a soldier to die on the battlefield, but the problem is that this war is completely an unnecessary war that happened at the wrong time and in the wrong place.

If the soldiers of the Ming Army on the Great Wall defense line did their duty, used the Great Wall passes, and resisted tenaciously, even if all the soldiers of the Ning Navy were exhausted, they would not have any complaints in their hearts. This is a battle for survival. Either you die or I die. Both sides If our positions are different, we will naturally shed our last drop of blood for our nation and country.

But the problem is that the defense line that took Ming Dynasty more than 200 years, countless money and blood and sweat to build was deliberately opened by their own people. Their real purpose was to deal with Cheng Shijie, the Prime Minister of the Nine Borders.If Cheng Shijie had not accepted the official position of Prime Minister of the Nine Borders, maybe they would not have made this move.

Cheng Shijie was thinking about how to solve this problem. In fact, later generations have already tried to solve this problem, just like the movie "Saving Private Ryan", which involves an abstract philosophical thinking. Is it worth exchanging eight people for one person? , Ryan’s life is life, isn’t Captain Miller’s life not life?
This movie is thinking about how to measure the value of life. If you were from Cheng Shijie's perspective and killed all the Ming officials in the capital, he would not frown. Some of those officials were of good moral character, but most of them deserved to die. But the problem is, just like wooing He Sui and Qiao Zhaolin, it is only the behavior of some officials, not the behavior of all officials.

There are many officials of the Ming Dynasty in the capital who are conscientious and doing their own thing. They are not involved in this conspiracy. Could it be said that killing them without any reason is right?Do they deserve to die because they are scholars?
Cheng Shijie took a machete and frantically chopped at the horse posts outside the tent, venting his anger by chopping wooden stakes. Until the knife was full of gaps, Cheng Shijie tremblingly walked towards the Chinese army's tent. Cheng Shijie's back looks extremely lonely and lonely, which makes people feel distressed.

Looking at his lonely finger shadow, Zhou Ning frowned, feeling a little unbearable.

This was the first time he saw Cheng Shijie like this. Cheng Shijie was not like this before. Even if the sky was falling, he could still hold it up with a smile. That bright, sunny, and somewhat rebellious smile was very contagious. Seeing him smile makes them feel at ease, and they can be used as a blanket even if the sky falls.

But now, there is no smile on his face anymore. The commander of Ning Haijun is injured, he was injured by them!
Zhou Ning turned around and looked at Li Xin beside him: "Are we going too far?"

Li Xin was silent for a long time and sighed: "The commander-in-chief is so kind. No matter what he does, he wants to do it perfectly. He not only hopes that this country that is suffering from a serious illness can regain its strength and regain its glory, but also hopes that there will be no bloodshed. How is this possible? ?He’s too naive.”

When Li Xin said this, he smiled: "Of course, this is not a bad thing. Didn't we decide to follow him because of his innocence and persistence? Without this innocence and persistence, he would not be Cheng Shijie, let alone so many outstanding people are willing to work for him."

Meng En smiled bitterly and said, "He is disappointed in us. Really, so disappointed. I can feel it!"

"It is expected. He has always hoped that the entire Ning Haijun would be like him without any selfish thoughts and wholeheartedly protect the country. When this happens, of course he will be disappointed. In fact, we also want to be like him, but... we are The generals of the Ming Dynasty are destined to fail. There are too many people who are holding us back or watching us secretly. As long as we show the slightest flaw, they will pounce on us and tear us into pieces, even if they are destroyed for it. I won’t hesitate to kill the whole country!”

Li Xin said firmly: "If you don't want to see the current crisis again, the only way is to sweep all the rubbish into the trash can, wipe off all the dirt, and turn the whole country into a blank sheet of paper again! "

Only white paper can draw the most beautiful blueprint. It is impossible to paint on a piece of dirty paper, even a painter can't do it.

Zhou Ning sighed and said: "I'm afraid that the commander-in-chief will be hit hard by this and be unable to recover!"

"Wait until we finish these things, then apologize to the commander!"

Li Xin said almost coldly: "If I tell the truth to the Marshal again in the future, the worst case scenario is that I will use my life to apologize to the Marshal!"

Zhou Ning said: "Use the power we can use to spread the news that the slaves are about to go south. Let the people run away as much as they can. As for those who don't want to escape, they can only blame themselves for their lives." alright!"

Li Xin continued: "Our Ning Haijun transportation team will stop delivering food to the capital from now on!"

Meng En said: "It's best to deploy in advance!"

"How to deploy in advance?"

"Once those people take the initiative to retreat, there will definitely be a lot of broken troops. We will deploy some people in advance and disperse them among these broken troops..."

"Do you want to learn from Xie Zhiliang?"

Li Xin shook his head and said: "Xie Zhiliang's success is largely due to chance. First of all, he is the commander-in-chief of Taiyuan Town. He treats the soldiers well and has won the hearts of the military. The soldiers and horses in Taiyuan Town are mainly from Shanxi. In order to Guarding Pingding Prefecture is also to protect their relatives. However, most of the troops on Xuanfu East Road and Zunhua Prefecture are not from Beizhili. No matter how many civilians are killed and injured when the guest troops fight, how much does it have to do with them?"

"Chief of Staff Li, you misunderstood me. What I mean is that we can control a large number of defeated troops and let them carry the people with them and flee south. Even if we force the people to flee south, it is better than waiting to die in the capital. !"

Cheng Shijie fell into deep self-blame. He closed the door, saw no one, and did nothing.

After sitting like this all night, at dawn, Cheng Shijie seemed to have figured it out. In fact, he had not figured it out. He just wanted to escape from this whirlpool. Whatever you want to do, then do it. He just wanted to take him with him. children leave this world.Come on, out of sight.

"Come on!"

Hou Si bowed and said: "Commander, please give me your instructions!"

"Prepare the car!"

Not long after, Cheng Shijie's exclusive carriage and RV were prepared. Originally, Cheng Shijie's carriage and RV was a four-horse carriage, but with the arrival of the Sharma, Cheng Shijie's carriage was changed to a two-horse carriage.However, although the contents of this carriage have not been changed, the carriage has been optimized.The carriage is equipped with a bulletproof shield, but since then, the vehicle has also become much heavier, which is almost equivalent to pulling more than 2000 kilograms. Cheng Shijie was lying on the carriage. He seemed to be making a robot. Now the robot has its own consciousness and has already Start thinking for yourself.

Now that Ning Haijun has his own consciousness, Cheng Shijie is no longer needed.

"Commander, where are we going?"

"Back to Liaodong!"

Cheng Shijie wanted to escape, to bury his head in the sand and act like an ostrich.

Of course, as the commander-in-chief of the Ning Navy, even if Cheng Shijie wants to return to Liaodong, it is impossible to reduce the escort force he should have. There are more than [-] Guards infantry and nearly [-] Guards cavalry, totaling more than [-] troops. Responsible for protecting Cheng Shijie's safety.

At this time, Cheng Shijie was lying in the carriage, as if he was a frustrated ball, with no interest at all.

Cheng Shijie's departure did not affect the operation of Ning Haijun. In fact, Cheng Shijie was also very lazy. He handed over the political affairs of Liaodong to the Liaodong Management Committee and the military affairs to the General Staff, and the staff team of the General Staff was quite large. Luxurious, his departure did not affect the operation of the Ning Navy.

After Cheng Shijie left, Li Xin, Zhou Ning, Meng En and others performed their respective duties. First, they released a large number of sentries and intelligence personnel, keeping a close eye on the troubles in the Beijing-Tianjin area, and at the same time strengthened the communication with the Dashun Army. Contact to ensure control of the Dashun Army.

Under the command of Zhou Ning, the Annan Army of the Ning Navy withdrew from Datong and Shanxi and assembled in the direction of Datong Town. The men and horses were responsible for closing the gap and preventing the war from going unfavorable and allowing the slaves to flee north.

There are only three roads that can escape north in the direction of Gyeonggi. One of them is in Juyongguan in Yanqing County, one is in Gubeikou, which is in Miyun County, the Baihe Ancient Road is in Jinganbao, and the other is in Qianxi County in Yongping Prefecture. Xifengkou.The other directions are not suitable for the entry and exit of large armies. Sneaking through hundreds or thousands of elite and lightly-armed personnel is acceptable. Large-scale troops can move south. The only three directions for building slaves.

At the same time, the General Staff of the Ning Navy prevented the Jianshou army from taking advantage of the momentum and built defense lines in Baoding and Tianjin to prevent any eventuality. I want to give them this beautiful country.

……

In the capital, Dongzhimen, in an inconspicuous house, this is the stronghold of the Ning Haijun Feng Group.

Ma Xing was reporting to Chen Guodong the intelligence he had just received. Gao Qiqian, the supervisor of Ning Haijun, was assassinated by an unknown force. No matter how the court dealt with it, Ning Haijun could not ignore it.

After all, beating a dog depends on the owner. No matter what Gao Qiqian's status is within Ning Haijun, but he is labeled as Ning Haijun, it is impossible to let this matter go.

At least we need to investigate clearly who is targeting Ning Haijun.

Ma Xing took the intelligence report: "According to the situation, before Eunuch Gao was ambushed, the Beijing camp mobilized more than 2000 troops to go to Xishan to suppress the bandits. These 1000 troops carried more than ten artillery pieces, and more than 260 and [-] pieces of artillery. There are more than [-] artillery pieces and war horses in total!”

"What size of banditry is worthy of using more than two thousand capital camps?"

"Unknown at the moment!"

Ma Xing smiled bitterly and said: "This unit was led by Beijing guerrilla general Zhou Yuji. Seven days later, he led the remaining troops back. Then three days ago, he was appointed as the chief military officer of Taiyuan Town by the Ministry of War. Now Zhou Yuji has taken up his post!"

"Then please ask Mr. Zhou to meet!"

"I'm afraid this is not good?"

"That's right, the imperial court also wants to lose face, so... Zhou Yuji will go to Taiyuan to perform his duties this time, and he should bring a lot of people with him, right?"

"There are more than [-] people accompanying us!"

"More than [-] troops? This number is quite a bit too much!"

Chen Guodong said: "Check Zhou Yuji's side to see who has been promoted the fastest. It's best to grab a few tongues while you can! Zhou Yuji can't touch him easily, the people around him should be able to!"

"Then I'll go there myself!"

However, just as Ma Xing was about to leave the capital, Chen Guodong asked: "Is there any latest information from Yanqing?"

Ma Xing said doubtfully: "It's just like usual, nothing big happened! It's just..."

"Just what?"

"General, see for yourself!"

Chen Guodong saw the intelligence sent, and Meng En took the lead in forcing Cheng Shijie to marry him.

The butt determines the head, and the head determines the thinking.No matter what Meng En's original intention was, he was coercing Cheng Shijie. In Chen Guodong's eyes, this was rebellion.

Chen Guodong asked: "Where is Meng En now?"

"Still in Yanqing!"

"Let Zhou Yuji's matter go, and we will go directly to Yanqing! I want to see whether Meng En wants to rebel, or Zhou Ning wants to rebel!" (End of Chapter)
