Three Kingdoms: Liu Bei seeks the master and seeks to conquer the world

Chapter 56 A little trick, Liu Ziping's exclamation

Since ancient times, the sages and sages have highly respected orders and prohibitions.

As it is said in "Guanzi. Lizheng": Orders are carried out, prohibitions are stopped, what the constitution reaches, and what the customs are imposed on, is like the heart of all kinds of bodies, and the expectations of government.

It means: the order is to be executed immediately, and the prohibition is to be stopped as soon as it is issued. Wherever it is affected by laws and customs, it is like a person's limbs and bones obeying the will of the person. This is the expectation of government. the result of.

For example, Xunzi, Han Feizi, Sun Tzu, etc. all explained the admiration of orders and prohibitions in their writings.

If the military order is not complete, even if they have excellent armor and weapons, the county soldiers can only be called mobs.

Deng Xu was also from a wealthy family in Pingyuan County, so he didn't understand the principles of laws and prohibitions.

But if you know what you understand, it is not for everyone to truly implement orders and prohibitions.

Deng Xu's method of commanding the army is more like mixing with the captains who are also from a wealthy and good family. Favors are more important than laws.

You can't say that this method of commanding troops is useless.

But what is certain is that this method of commanding troops has extremely high requirements on the personal ability of the commander.

Once the commander's personal ability is not good enough, and the favor is greater than the law, he can still fight in a favorable situation, but he will just run away when he encounters an adverse situation.

However, like Zheng Ping, the method of commanding troops with laws over human feelings does not require the commander's personal ability, but only requires the commander to lead by example and prohibit orders.

Leading by example and following the example, as long as these twenty commanders are well controlled, the thousands of county soldiers can be twisted into one rope, allowing them to exert the combat effectiveness that the county soldiers already possess!
Knowing Zheng Ping's intentions, Deng Xu's view of Zheng Ping gradually changed.

To be able to use tactics so skillfully, to control a thousand county soldiers in less than two hours, and to make these thousand county soldiers even more elite, what kind of scholar is this who doesn't know soldiers?

"Master Juncheng, have you ever commanded soldiers before?" Deng Xu asked cautiously.

Zheng Ping's eyes were a little more surprised: "Why do you ask such a question? Not to mention that the Zheng family originally had family soldiers, and the military books annotated by my father have all been reviewed by Lu Shangshu."

"Chang Shi asked you to come, did he treat me as Zhao Kuo?"

Deng Xu's eyes were a little embarrassed, and he apologized: "Don't blame Jun Cheng, the war is dangerous, and my father-in-law is also worried that Jun Cheng will be in danger."

When Zheng Ping traveled to Zhuzhou and counties, he made a special trip to Luoyang to visit Lu Zhi. Lu Zhi used many specific examples to guide Zheng Ping on how to select generals and train soldiers, how to march and deploy troops, and how to command the three armies.

Even the former Xiyuan Army in Luoyang, Zheng Ping also went to stay for a few months.

Regarding the art of commanding troops, Zheng Ping has always received a high-level education, and he has a complete set of military commanding procedures in his mind.

After all, if you want to airborne to an important position, you can't do it without a set of effective methods.

It can't be that you are all airborne, and you still have to learn some basic superficial knowledge from your subordinates, right?

Zheng Ping no longer entangled with Deng Xu on these trivial matters, and ordered: "Captain Deng, inform the quartermaster to boil a few pots of mutton soup, and reward the thousand soldiers of the county tonight."

"Take a rest tonight and go to Ande County tomorrow morning."

Zheng Ping is also familiar with the art of reward and punishment.

Unite the soldiers with rewards and restrain them with military discipline. Only in this way can the soldiers obey their orders and win the battle.

Knowing that there is mutton soup for dinner today, the wariness of these county soldiers towards Zheng Ping has also dropped to the minimum.

And those who were promoted to be the commander of the army and the commander of the flag, they admired Zheng Ping even more in their hearts.

There are rewards and punishments, and it is easier to understand for most ordinary county soldiers with simple ideas.

night.

Deng Xu told Chang Shi Liu Ziping about the military camp in Bai Rili one by one.

Seeing that Zheng Ping was proficient in methods, and he did not look like a novice at all, Liu Ziping's worries gradually dissipated.

But at the same time, Liu Ziping couldn't hold back his face.

After all, not only did Zheng Ping beat up [-] of the [-] captains at once, but Zheng Ping also made a special trip to ask Deng Xu to bring these [-] captains back to the Changshi Mansion to receive his punishment!
The meaning of this is very clear: since he is the commander of Chang Shi Lian, then Chang Shi will execute the military law on his behalf.

"The eighteen captains are all outside?" Liu Ziping's eyes darkened.

Deng Xu originally wanted to intercede for these [-] soldiers, but when he met Liu Ziping's eyes, he immediately swallowed the rest of his words: "They are all outside."

Liu Ziping snorted coldly: "It's not enough to succeed, more than to fail. It's embarrassing to the old man. Each person will be responsible for thirty, and you will be closed at home for three days. You will personally supervise the punishment, and then report the results to the county magistrate."

Deng Xu didn't dare to disobey the order, so he could only ask the criminal squad to punish the eighteen captains one by one.

This time, the eighteen commanders were completely honest.

Even Liu Ziping refused to call the shots, they could only bear with this loss, and hummed in a muffled voice.

"Satisfy you guys, Jun Cheng is not a soft-hearted man, if you hadn't looked at Yue Zhang, you would have been executed by military law." Seeing this, Deng Xu could only sigh secretly, beating one by one.

After the punishment of the eighteen soldiers was executed, Deng Xu went to the barracks to see Zheng Ping, and reported back: "Master Juncheng, the eighteen soldiers, the commander-in-chief, has ordered thirty battles, and they will reflect behind closed doors at home. Three days."

Zheng Ping didn't care about these eighteen soldiers for a long time, he just handed the still warm mutton soup to Deng Xu: "Drink a few sips to warm up your body, after leaving the city, you won't have the chance to drink this mutton soup. "

Deng Xu was moved.

There was only one porcelain kettle in front of Zheng Ping, and the soldiers around him were already full.

This means that Zheng Ping is specially reserved for Deng Xu.

"Master Xie Juncheng." Deng Xu thanked, picked up the porcelain kettle, and drank the mutton soup in one gulp.

During the autumn harvest, the nights in Pingyuan County are occasionally cool, especially in the military camps, which are not as good as the mud walls in the city to keep out the wind and rain.

After drinking a few sips of mutton soup, Deng Xu felt a little warmth in his body from the inside out.

Early the next morning.

Taking Deng Xu as the vanguard, Zheng Ping first sent two hundred county soldiers to Ande County.

Ande County also implemented the tactic of fortifying the walls and clearing the fields, but due to the rush of time, many of the crops in Ande County were robbed by the Yellow Turbans.

Now the Yellow Turban surrounds the county seat of Ande County, with the intention of breaking the city and defending it.

But the county magistrate of Ande County is Guan Zan, a wealthy son of a good family in Pingyuan County promoted by Chen Ji. Although he is not as good as Liu Bei, he is much better than the magistrate Ban who fled without a fight.

At least Guan Zan, the magistrate of Ande County, dared to go up to the city wall to supervise the battle.

"How dare these thieves drive the old and the weak, women and children to attack the city!" Guan Zan punched the city wall.

Driving the old and weak, women and children to attack the city is a common tactic of the Yellow Turbans.

After all, the composition of the yellow scarves is mostly old and weak, women and children.

However, this is a severe test for Guan Zan and the county soldiers of Ande County.

To kill, or not to kill, that is the question.
