The Soul of the Han Dynasty in the Late Ming Dynasty

Chapter 799 Disagreement
Unexpectedly, Gu Zhun, who looked calm and had been working happily with Baiganbing, would make himself unable to step down in public. Qin Liangyu suppressed his anger and asked:

"The imperial court dispatched white soldiers and the 'Red Banner Army' to kill the rogues. Now that the rogues are heading north, my official ordered them to pursue them all the way to Shaanxi, where they live, so what's wrong?"

Zhang Fengyi couldn't forget the life-saving grace of the "Red Banner Army". Seeing her mother-in-law turning livid with anger and screaming inwardly, she quickly gave Gu Zhun a wink.

Ma Lanhua was originally a small banner officer in the female guards of the white-armed soldiers. She married Qin Yuyi for seven years and learned a lot of new knowledge in the "Red Banner Army" system.

After she was ordered by Qin Yuyi to lead a general "Red Banner Army" female soldier to protect her adoptive mother and perform filial piety for her, she has been by Qin Liangyu's side and is inseparable.

At this time, Ma Lanhua saw that Gu Zhun had a dispute with Qin Liangyu, and secretly sweated for Gu Zhun.

She has been in the "Red Banner Army" for more than seven years. Of course, she knows that General Zhenglu treats the white soldiers with sincerity, and he must be thinking of Qin Liangyu when he refuses the white soldiers to enter dangerous places.

Ma Lanhua was already thinking about how to help Gu Zhun persuade the old patriarch who had a bad temper and was extremely stubborn.

Gu Zhun's heart is strong, and the generals of the "Red Banner Army" system are full of confidence and less slavish, because the atmosphere of the "Red Banner Army" is like this.

Huang Han has been paying close attention to the ideological education of the soldiers. Each battalion will have a summary meeting every ten days, and there will be a monthly regular meeting. There will be criticism and self-criticism in every meeting.

If there is something, change it if there is nothing, then encourage it. The mutual help and mutual supervision of the officers and soldiers does not matter the size of the official position, and everyone can speak freely.

Regarding today's matter, Gu Zhun believed that his decision was correct, and he was discussing the matter with a responsible attitude towards the [-] Sichuan Army and the [-] white soldiers. He didn't care if he offended General Zhengxi.

He said: "The first duty of a soldier is to guard the land and protect the people. Now there are as many as 300 million hungry people within [-] miles of Chengdu. General Qin has left with his troops. What should they do? Sit and watch them starve to death, or wait for them to die. Become a vagrant and develop into a rogue?
If General Qin led his men and horses all the way to chase out of Sichuan and go to Shaanxi, the general reckoned that the bandits would not be able to fight much, and more than half of the white soldiers would be consumed, and it might take a year and a half.

And the 300 to [-] million hungry people you left behind will rise up, and they will definitely rob everywhere. After a year or so, the number of hungry people will double, and the number of local rogues in Sichuan will grow to tens or hundreds of thousands.

At that time, the whole of Sichuan was full of hungry people, and it was impossible for the white soldiers to stabilize the situation.This is the vicious circle that the last general's mentor, General Zhenglu, often mentioned. If Sichuan really wants to develop into that, General Qin will be a sinner through the ages. "

Ma Lanhua's knowledge was already higher than that of more than [-]% of the white soldiers and generals of the Sichuan army. Hearing Gu Zhun's debate, he almost applauded subconsciously, but suddenly remembered that this was not a regular meeting of the "Red Banner Army", so he stopped quickly.

Seeing that Gu Zhun spoke so tit for tat, the general of the white-armed soldier couldn't help secretly admiring him.

Being reprimanded face-to-face by a late junior, Qin Liangyu's face flushed red, but although his words were not pleasant, they seemed to make sense!

She glanced at her son Ma Xianglin, daughter-in-law Zhang Fengyi, nephews Qin Yiming and Qin Gongming, and saw that they were all frowning in deep thought.

Qin Liangyu saw that none of the generals of the white-armed soldiers stood up to refute, so he could only open his mouth and said: "General Gu, what should you do now according to your plan?"

Gu Zhun calmly said: "What we did in eastern Sichuan three years ago, and we are still doing the same in Chengdu and even northern Sichuan, why should we look far away?

The official believes that the first thing is to wipe out the bandits, bandits, and bandits within a radius of [-] miles, and then proceed step by step after ensuring the stability of this area.

The "Red Banner Army" will try its best to ensure that no one in Sichuan will starve to death, and will immediately transport the hungry people out to bring food into Sichuan. "

Qin Liangyu said angrily: "The imperial court's military order and the emperor's imperial decree are all to send us to suppress the bandits, but we refuse to pursue the main force of the bandits, and just sit and watch them escape. Isn't it a disobedience to the order?"

The attitude of the Sichuan Army, especially the Baigan soldiers, towards the imperial court was completely different from that of the "Red Banner Army", so there was a disagreement. Gu Zhun was loyal to Huang Han and looked down on what the imperial court did.

He didn't care and said: "General Qin's words are wrong. We stayed in Sichuan to suppress the bandits. What is the main force of the bandits? Does it matter if the number of troops reaches tens or hundreds of thousands?

Then wait and see, if we let the hungry people, bandits, and rogues in Sichuan ignore it, tens of thousands and hundreds of thousands of rogues will be born in a few months.

Therefore, our stay in Sichuan is also a vital force to eliminate the bandits. Whoever insists on resisting the edict and not obeying the order will be the last general. At the end of the day, we will go to the capital to meet the emperor to make a decision. "

Ma Lanhua couldn't help nodding her head when she heard these words. She couldn't applaud and support her, so she secretly gave Gu Zhun a thumbs up.

This action happened to be seen by Zhang Fengyi, and seeing her mother-in-law was about to run away in anger, Ma Lanhua, who was originally a maidservant, was still supporting Gu Zhun behind her back, Zhang Fengyi gave Ma Lanhua a vicious look.

Gu Zhun is very good, of course, this confidence comes from the "Red Banner Army" as a group, besides, he also thinks that the rogues can't be killed by blindly chasing and fighting, and the only way to eliminate the soil that breeds rogues is to eliminate them.

The head of the family, Huang Han, spared no effort to subsidize money and food to stabilize the party regardless of gains or losses. Starting from the source is the only way to solve the flood of rogues.

Sichuan has been ravaged by bandits, and there are millions of hungry people. If they are left to their own devices, less than half of them may become bandits.

Taking advantage of the time when the rogue bandits fought all the way to Chengdu, the "Red Banner Army" and the white-armed soldiers took advantage of the situation to touch Chengdu and affect northern Sichuan.

Gu Zhun believes that he has no selfish intentions, but he is looking out for the overall situation, to prevent the white-armed expedition from being wasted in vain, and also to avoid the danger that Qin Liangyu, Ma Xianglin and others may be wiped out when they encounter slavery and bandits in Shaanxi.

Qin Liangyu was used to speaking out, and Qin Liangyu had never seen any general stand in front of her, and felt angry for a while.

But Gu Zhun, the commander in chief of the aid and suppression army, was not the general of the white-armed soldiers, but the chief general of the "Red Banner Army". She didn't look at the face of the monk but at the face of the Buddha.

Qin Liangyu calmed down, and after thinking about it, she felt that Gu Zhun's concerns were not unreasonable. She chose to compromise and suggested:
"General Gu is right, but the white-armed soldiers are the army of the imperial court and must carry out the imperial decree. The 'Red Banner Army' is better at reassuring the people than the white-armed soldiers, and they can also receive a large amount of food aid.

I am going to continue to lead the white soldiers to chase the main force of the bandits north, and General Gu can lead the troops to stay in Chengdu to resettle the hungry people. "
