Prosperous Tang Soul

Chapter 267 Is Pao Ze's Love Fake?
"Naturally, ten guan is a lot of money, and you can almost buy a cow!" Thinking of this, Zhang Yi looked at Xue Wanren with a smile on his face, and said, "But how many years can ten guan be used for? Is it possible to raise a young child to adulthood, to the point where he can support himself?"

When Zhang Yi asked such a question, Xue Wanren immediately became dumb, and even Tang Peng, who was beside him who didn't care about these things, fell silent.

"No! But this is almost always the case in the Tang Dynasty. Isn't there nothing I can do?" After a moment of silence, Xue Wanren shook his head and argued: "But it would be a bit tricky to conquer that tribe, how much more brothers? We can share some if there are less. But we have a manpower tribe here in Shuofang, and the court ordered me to wait to defend Shuofang, brother, I also have the will but powerlessness!"

As he spoke, Xue Wanren's voice became smaller and smaller. In fact, he himself had no confidence, and he had nothing to do about such a thing.

"You are still a man if you say that!" Zhang Yi immediately said: "A general who can consider and plan for the soldiers is a good general. Pure personal bravery is nothing more than a reckless man! Throughout history, any Famous generals, their individual abilities are actually not much higher than other generals, but they all have a common characteristic, that is, they love soldiers like children!!"

The reason why Zhang Yi said this is actually well-founded. In history, no matter whether it was the famous Song Dynasty general Yue Fei or Di Qing, or Zeng Guofan of the later Whip Country, these people all had this characteristic.
As the so-called heart-to-heart, treating soldiers as nephews to care about them, love them, and win their sense of identity is the cheapest management method summed up among famous historical generals. According to Zhang Yi's understanding, it is to play the emotional card.

Of course, this method also has certain limitations, that is, no matter how good the relationship is, it may be useful for a certain period of time, but as time goes on, unless the reputation is constantly replaced with new blood, otherwise the effect will gradually be greatly reduced.

After all, serving as a soldier is for food. No matter how good the character of a supervisor is, how loyal he is to serve the country, but when he can't even afford food, he can't even take care of his family, who is willing to fight for you?

This has nothing to do with personal morality, it is just the most realistic thing, so it is not unreasonable for Zhang Yi to say that a pension of ten pennies is simply a cheap purchase of human life.

Xue Wanren suddenly fell silent. As a general, he naturally has a very deep understanding and research on famous historical generals, because he found that Zhang Yi's words were not nonsense, and he could even say that they directly expressed the reason why these generals used their troops. Nature.

As Zhang Yi said, the reason why he was able to defend Shuofang City with a force of less than [-] is that he also adopted this so-called emotional management method of Zhang Yi. To live is to share blessings with difficulties.

It is also this method that made the relationship between him and the soldiers so strong that he did not hesitate to fight to the death, and allowed him to climb step by step as a leading soldier to the position of Marquis today.

But ask yourself, is it true that the so-called sharing of blessings and sharing of difficulties is true?
There is only one answer, no!

At this moment, Xue Wanren's mind was in chaos, the faces of his former comrades had gradually become blurred, and every loud scream on the battlefield turned into black and white pictures that gradually became memories. buried deepest.
Those people, those things, seem to be like disconnected pictures that gradually fade away with the passage of time!
It's just that now that I have achieved great success and fame, how many of those familiar and vague faces still exist?Except for a few old brothers who are still around, more people have turned into a cup of loess!
The eyes gradually became moist, and the heart suddenly felt like it was being torn apart!

"Brother Zhang, please teach me!~~~~" Suddenly, Xue Wanren stood up, clasped his fists in his hands and bowed deeply to Zhang Yi, and said, "Is it really wrong to be a brother? Is it because I have been too selfish all these years?" , or is it really just relying on them to achieve today's honor?"

Suddenly, Xue Wanren seemed to be several years old, and his whole body became a vicissitudes of life, as if he had lost all his strength, he suddenly sat down on the steps again, and continued with a pale face: "When we just met, I I can see that you are different from us! Really different! Although you are also the body of Marquis Wu, you give me the feeling that you are a literati, so naturally you are a big brother like Brother Biwei Zu has a way!
Just now you mentioned the issue of pensions, you must have a solution, right?right? "

As he said that, Xue Wanren held Zhang Yi's arm and shook it unceasingly, as if Zhang Yi would not stop once he denied it.

It can be seen that Xue Wanren is very entangled in this matter!
Tang Peng also looked helpless, and hurriedly said: "Second brother Xue, calm down first, Lizi must have a way to say for sure, why don't you stop tormenting him like this first here? It's not that you can't see Lizi's body, you have to If you continue to shake like this, you will almost fall apart, can you still think of a way for you?"

Hearing what Tang Peng said, Xue Wanren woke up, and then looked at Zhang Yi with an embarrassed look on his face.

For Xue Wanren and Zhang Yi, he was also drunk. Unexpectedly, he was still a man of temperament. Judging from the expression and words he just showed, he must have deep feelings for those soldiers in his heart, rather than the so-called really playing the emotional card.

Of course, it’s not necessarily true, after all, as the saying goes, he can soar to his current status by virtue of his military exploits, and Zhang Yi would not believe it if he killed hundreds of thousands of robed corpses under his feet.

It's just that many things are often done subconsciously. As Xue Wanren said, this love of soldiers like a son is taught by Chai Shao, so it can be said that his feelings for soldiers are from a certain point of view. It is a kind of art of war, not pure brotherhood.

But Zhang Yi's mind also became a little confused!

He was thinking, perhaps from the bottom of his heart, Xue Wanren just acted in accordance with the law of war inadvertently, but he did not deny that he also had a strong brotherly affection for soldiers!
But what does all this concern me?I just look at this group of veterans pitifully, and want to help them make their lives better, and by the way, when I take off my armor, I won't be able to return to my hometown without a home!Of course, I also made a little money along the way.
Thinking of this, Zhang Yi's face showed a look of empathy with Xue Wanren, and the eyes looking at Xue Wanren gradually became serious! "
