Technology dominates the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 35 [Military Law, Brothers]

After entering Panyu City, Cao Xing took five thousand cavalry to take over Panyu City, and was responsible for arresting the henchmen of the prefect Zhu Bing and confiscating their money, food, real estate and land.The most important thing is to check the treasury of the prefect's mansion and arrange heavy guards.

He Chong, the captain of the prefect's mansion, was going to escort 30 shi of grain out of the city, but when he was about to leave, he was arrested by the "Shenbing Battalion".Then Cao Xing led the cavalry to return all the grain shipped out to the treasury, and sent people to check it in detail.

However, when Cao Xing was busy investigating the treasury of the prefect, a ten-man cavalry team clashed with the people in the city.

The reason is that the cavalry passed by a tavern, asked about the fragrance of the wine, entered the store and snatched the wine, and did not pay for it.

When Lu Bu entered the city, he imposed three prohibitions:

"After entering the city, do not burn, kill or loot, do not embarrass the people in the city, do not take needles and threads from the people, and offenders will be dealt with according to military law!"

These three military orders have long been spread throughout Panyu City, and have been highly praised by the people in the city.

Unexpectedly, an accident happened not long after, and the impact of this incident was bad. The people in the city began to doubt the credibility of Lu Bu and his army, which was related to the aspirations of the people.

Listening to Cao Xing's narration of the incident, Lv Bu's face was darkened. On the one hand, he was annihilating the state army, and on the other hand, he was popular among the people.

Serious treatment will hurt the hearts of the soldiers of the Bingzhou Army, but if it is not dealt with, it will not be able to discipline the army, and it will also lose the hearts of the people. Lu Bu was in a dilemma and hesitated for a while.

He was an excellent special soldier in his previous life, but now he is a general with tens of thousands of soldiers. The brotherhood of sharing weal and woe in the army is still very important in Lu Bu's heart.

"What can you do?" Lu Bu asked, looking at Jia Xu, Chen Gong, Xi Zhicai and Guo Jia.

These are all four great talents, so they should be able to come up with a solution for themselves, right?Lu Bu thought so in his heart.

Among the four, Chen Gong came first, and he suggested: "Since the general has a ban in advance, there is no rule without rules, let alone in the army. The rule of the army should be rewarded for meritorious deeds and punished for mistakes. This is the way to govern the army. .The general’s soldiers violated the military order and should be dealt with according to the military regulations. This way, the military discipline can be suppressed, and the people’s hearts can be reassured. This is the way to understand the Lord.”

Chen Gong said one thing and another, although Lu Bu was not satisfied, he couldn't refute it.Lu Bu just nodded slightly, and asked Guo Jia, "Feng Xiao, what do you think?"

Guo Jia was stunned for a moment, then clasped his hands and replied: "General, I agree with Chen Gong's suggestion that the army should be strictly governed."

Xi Zhicai on the side didn't wait for Lu Bu to ask, and said, "General, I agree with Chen Gong and Guo Jia's opinion."

Lu Bu frowned, but he didn't hear the answer he wanted, and there was only one Jia Xu left. Lu Bu thought that this deep city guy should be very good at making friends, so he asked Jia Xu: "Wenhe, your suggestion is the same as the three of them. ?”

Jia Xu cupped his hands slightly to Lv Bu, and said: "I agree with Chen Gong's suggestion, but I think the general does not want to lose the hearts of the people or chill the hearts of the soldiers. I believe that military discipline cannot be broken, and strict military rule is a must."

"However, the general can ask those soldiers who violated the military regulations to publicly apologize to the restaurant first, compensate the restaurant for all losses, and also pay for the medical expenses of the restaurant and the shop assistants."

"While striving for the approval of the restaurant and the people, punish those soldiers who violated the military regulations in front of them."

After hearing this, Lu Bu frowned even more deeply, and said dissatisfiedly: "According to what you said, it can win the hearts of the people to the maximum extent, but doesn't it make the soldiers feel even more chilling?"

"I haven't said anything yet, general, don't worry." Jia Xu laughed a little awkwardly.

"Say." Lu Bu glared at him.

Jia Xu said: "The general is a general with tens of thousands of soldiers. Only strict and fair governance can make the soldiers obey the military orders. Therefore, the general cannot depose the prince. However, the general treats the soldiers as brothers and sisters. The military rules cannot be broken, and the general can Care about these generals in private, and send some condolences to let the soldiers know that you are their general and you must be punished for breaking military regulations, and you can also let them know that the general treats them as brothers in private and always cares about them."

"In this way, the soldiers in the army will be more in awe of the general, and they will be closer to the general in private.

Isn't this beating first and then giving candy?Did it seem hypocritical? Chen Gong and Xi Zhicai did not quite agree with this way of handling this matter.

Guo Jia has another idea: this Jia Xu is really unique, and if he has a good relationship with him, maybe he can learn some different strategies from him.

Sure enough, he is worthy of being a poisoner, and his strategy is different from others.Lv Bu made a decision in his mind, and asked Cao Xing to listen to the order: "Cao Xing, you should do as Jia Xu said, and you have to tell the soldiers who violated the military regulations. This general will strictly enforce military discipline, but always treat you as brothers." After they received their punishment, Hao Sheng took care of them and told them that General Ben would bring good wine to visit them in a few days."

"Cao Xing understands the general's intentions and will definitely follow through. Besides, it is our honor to follow the general." Cao Xing was very moved by Lu Bu's move.

After the two had finished talking, Lu Bu said again: "Cao Xing, you hand over the matter of money, grain, land and household registration to Chen Gong. You concentrate on maintaining the order in the city, and similar things cannot happen again."

"Promise!" Cao Xing replied, he was not good at managing money, grain, land and household registration, and handing over Chen Gong can also reduce his burden a lot.

"Gongtai, it's hard work for you." Lu Bu looked at Chen Gong and said.

Chen Gong cupped his hands and said: "I will listen to the general's orders, but I want a helper, I guess I can't be busy with one person in a short time." Said, Chen Gong looked at Xi Zhicai.

Lu Bu understood in seconds, turned his head to look at Xi Zhicai, and said, "Zhicai, you can cooperate with Gongtai. When Hua Tuo settles down in the city, I will ask him to treat your illness."

"Thank you General, I will obey your orders." Xi Zhicai responded.

Guo Jia on the side couldn't stand still, and said: "General, Mr. Jia Xu and I are idle anyway, why don't we go to cooperate with Chen Gong to handle official affairs?"

Lu Bu was stunned when he heard this. He really didn't think about what to arrange for Guo Jia and Jia Xu. After thinking about it, these are people who can't be idle, so he agreed: "Okay, you all go, but you need to Follow the arrangements of the public platform and handle things well."

"No!" Guo Jia replied, but Jia Xu just bowed his hands and did not speak.

Afterwards, the four followed Cao Xing and left the Taishou's mansion.

Not long after, Zhang Liao, Zhang Yang, Song Xian, Yang Feng and others brought the family members of the generals to the city to find a place to settle down, that is, the residence of the party members of the prefect Zhu Bing, for the generals and their families to live in for the time being.Of course, Lu Bu's family members were brought directly to the prefect's mansion.

As for Gao Shun, Wei Xu, Xu Rong, and Xu Huang were left in the army barracks outside the city, Hao Meng led the army to take over the city defenses and arrange related matters.

"Father." Seeing Lu Bu, Lu Lingqi ran and jumped on him.

"Little girl, go shopping around the mansion, and then choose a room you like. Father still has to discuss things with your uncle Zhang Liao, so he can't play with you now." Lu Bu patted Lu Lingqi's head and said.

"Okay." Lu Lingqi whispered, then smiled at Lu Bu, turned and left.Xiao Tao took care of Diao Chan and went to the backyard to find a room to settle down.
