Most of the people here, especially the local officials and noble families in Hedong who had traveled hard with Wang Yi, as well as the Hedong tycoons who had just been released from the former Baibo Army, were already hungry. But seeing Gongsun Xun acting like this, they just

Able to hold one's breath and sit quietly at the table.

Even those who had no extra thoughts at this time also pricked up their ears to listen. They were also curious about what exactly the army was in the eyes of Gongsun Xun, who was recognized as the world's most famous general.

"What is the army?" Gongsun Xun sat in the chief chair, unhurriedly, but actually a lot more serious. "In a word, it is the auxiliary of the country! What does it mean? It means that the army is used to assist the country.

The tools used to operate and maintain peace and tranquility in the world are used to hoe the strong and support the weak, not to bully the weak; they are used to support danger and calm chaos, not to disrupt government and cause disaster!"

Wang Yi opened his mouth and wanted to interject with sarcasm, but then he thought about it and realized that the other party had Dong Zhuo, a bastard, as a shield, but it was not easy for him to humiliate himself.

"I know that there are many criticisms among you here. After all, with Dong Zhuo in front of you, all the princes in the world can be complacent, pointing to Dong Zhongying and claiming to be virtuous, claiming to help danger and calm chaos... This situation is indeed like this now." Gongsun Xun seemed to see it.

It caught the minds of some people, but he did not hide it. "Even though I, Gongsun Xun, are two thousand miles away and dare to bring 20,000 troops here, isn't it because Dong Zhuo is cruel and cruel? He will lose people's hearts quickly. He will be killed quickly."

Is it weak? As for you, especially the rulers of the three counties of Bingzhou and Hedong, and the leaders of the clans, most of them think that it is just because they are between Dong Zhuo and me that they have no choice but to choose the good one and follow it, rather than because of their own merits.

Loss of morality and chaos in government..."

"Isn't it like this?" Wang Yi and Wang Wendu finally couldn't bear it anymore and got angry. "Is it unethical for me to work hard to maintain the situation because I am weak and unable to do anything for the overall situation? Is it also considered a disorder of government?"

"Of course," Gongsun Xun didn't even look at his senior brother, he just sat where he was and continued to speak proudly.

"What are you talking about?" Wang Yi became more and more angry. "You have worked hard for two years and now you have become a thief?"

"Senior brother, why should you lose your composure? What's so difficult to understand? It's just that you don't occupy your position and don't pursue politics. You just occupy your position and pursue politics." Gongsun Xun remained calm and unhurried. "In other words, being immoral will lead to chaos in government.

It all depends on the person... Is it the same thing for princes and ordinary officials to disrupt government and cause disaster, and for scholars and ordinary people to disrupt government and cause disaster?"

Wang Yi came to his senses a little, and although he was still a little angry, he finally sat back under the worried eyes of many people in the court.

"Brother Wendu, for example, you are the kind of person," Gongsun Xun chuckled softly, not letting him go just because he was sitting down. "You have a position of two thousand stones, and you are under orders. After Dong Zhuo's rebellion, you are actually a prince in the same place. Do you have any

Chaos brings disaster, not to see if you can maintain the situation, but to see if you can help the crisis, quell the chaos, and preserve the country! In other words, since the era of great strife has arisen, and various princes are separatist, at this time, as a

If the leader of one party is weak and incompetent, unable to contribute to the overall situation, unable to support the country, and yet wants to segregate one party and form a system of its own, it is already regarded as chaos and disaster!"

Wang Yi still wanted to tell the difference, but when Gongsun Xun saw this, he changed his color and yelled: "If you don't say anything else, I just want to ask my brother, Dong Zhuo started forcing millions of people in Henan to move to Guanzhong two months ago. I heard Wei Wei

Bo Xi said that people died of hunger, disease and death on the road... Isn't this wrong? Although you are weak in Anyi, what if you cross the river and fight a few battles to save some people? If you can't save people, go and collect some corpses on the road.

So what? There are a hundred thousand Baibo bandits on the side, and I am coming. Are you afraid that Dong Zhuo will cross the river to retaliate? But did you do it?! Only because you don’t go against the trend again can you keep your reputation.

That’s all, what else do you want? I asked you to abdicate and deal with Wei Gu and Fan Xian. Do you really just want to seize the power of Hedong? Do you three really have a clear conscience in presiding over the overall situation of Anyi?!"

Wang Yi was speechless in silence.

"Actually, it's not just you, Wang Wen, who is in your position and can't do it?" Gongsun Xun said this, but he glanced sideways at Liu Yu beside him. "Some people are above the three princes and have auxiliary orders.

Faced with being surrounded by tigers and wolves, they do not take the initiative to eradicate the chaos. Instead, they only consider their personal reputation, gains and losses. They repeatedly pretend to be deaf and dumb and sit back and watch the situation collapse! And when the overall situation collapses, they can neither calm the chaos nor help the crisis.

They want to die to serve the country, but instead want to live in a corner and survive. Even some colleagues can't bear it. When they are about to draw their swords, they have to be restrained by their own selfish interests... Such people claim to be virtuous, but in fact they are bringing disaster to the world.

generation."

At this point, Liu Yu's face was already livid, but he could not refute it. And many of the people in the audience were frightened, but they didn't know what to say.

"That's right." Gongsun Xun suddenly laughed. "I'm talking about Yuan Wei, Yang Biao and their like! They have been favored by the country and have the hope of the world. They govern the court, but they sit back and watch Dong Zhuo under their noses.

Those who arbitrarily abolish and establish...I just said that Yuan Yang and his like were established under the sect. Although I was joking, I am not resentful that they did not stop Dong Zhuo in the first place?"

The audience felt relieved for a moment, and everyone sighed.

"However," Gongsun Xunfu looked at Wang Yi again. "Brother, there is no need to worry about it. What I said about being immoral and disorderly was just because you were in office and did not do what you did. Now that you have abandoned the position of local chief official,

, then there is no need to blame yourself for this... When the world is safe and peaceful, people like you will still be asked to go to the court to take over the situation from those who are in charge of the situation."

Although Wang Yi's face still looked ugly, he still slightly raised his hands to each other... The small disturbance caused by the handling of the official forces in Anyi, Hedong, was over.

However, Gongsun Xun seemed to be addicted, and he continued to talk long and hard, regardless of everyone getting hungrier:

"I just started talking about what an army is, and talked about whether the princes are virtuous or not. It's not without reason... After all, the world is in turmoil at this time, and the princes are rising together. In a world of great strife, military affairs come first, and military affairs are state affairs. Both of them

Naturally connected. And if we continue talking, we can actually talk about officials, soldiers, powerful families and even common people."

"For example, below the princes, what is the priority for military affairs?" Gongsun Xun sat at the top, looking left and right, and said calmly. "It is not generals, soldiers and horses, and armor, but civil affairs. Civil administration is well organized, the people are rich, and the system is complete.

Naturally, we can easily gather food and grass and recruit strong troops... Just like this expedition, which defeated four counties in a row, there were often arguments in the army, saying who had done more credit, Duke Yi or Su Qing, and who should be in the first place? But at the beginning of this conversation

That's not right. In my opinion, at this point in the expedition, only Lu Changshi, who maintained the situation at the back, and Wang Shuzhi, who led the auxiliary troops and handled the logistics along the way, can compete for the first credit! Emperor Gaozu's "The merit of the man is the merit of the dog"

On the other hand, is it false?"

As soon as this was said, Han Dang and Gao Shun quickly came out and knelt down to apologize in public. Wang Shuzhi also quickly stood up and declined.

Gongsun Xun stood on top of him and waved to them casually, asking them to go back: "It's none of your business, and I'm not trying to beat you. It's just that I saw Mrs. Guo commit suicide in Gaoliang Pavilion. In the past few days, because of

I have a lot of thoughts about how to deal with prisoners. I was asked by my senior brother today, and I thought about the upcoming confrontation with Dong Zhuo, so I couldn't help but say a few more words... You just think I am idle and boring, listen if you want to, and don't listen if you don't.

Pay attention."

The two generals then bowed their heads and retreated... But the people sitting here, especially the locals in Hedong, couldn't help but marvel. They were used to seeing arrogant and powerful generals in Hedong, but they didn't want Gongsun Xun to ride two officer leaders at one step.

To be so honest, but then I thought about it, Gongsun Xun originally started his career in the military, and it seemed normal for him to speak out in the military.

"Moreover, when it comes to the war itself, it is still not the lieutenant general's turn, but the military system is greater than the officer." After Han Dang and Gao Shun retired, Gongsun Xun continued to talk. "One Army.

People, first of all, the system must be perfected, the promotion of officers and soldiers in the army should be smooth, the army should be complete, and the discipline should be clear... For example, in the battle of Gaoliang Pavilion, you all said that I was so majestic that day, and how the righteous man commanded in battle.

How can Su Qing use one as ten? But in fact, if the whole army has a complete system and smooth command, and the army is one of the best in the world, how can it fight with no officers? I am afraid that it will be like the Baibo Army on the opposite side, with no courage.

They are just a rabble."

There is indeed some truth to what he said. Everyone in the court, including many young officers, officials and even members of the family, were sitting upright at this time and listened attentively.

However, there are also smart people like Tian Yuanhao, who suddenly realized something else.

In other words, Gongsun Xun repeatedly emphasized the system and logistics, and repeatedly ignored the outstanding generals under his command. It seemed that he had no intention of being suspicious and worried about the generals in the world of great battles in the history books. He even went to the point of being unscrupulous. Tian Feng had already felt confused.

.However, after careful calculation in his mind at this time, he discovered an interesting thing - it turned out that the famous minions and generals under Gongsun Xun were all extremely reliable people!

For example, Cheng Pu and Han Dang are both from the same hometown, and the former was born as a county official and was an old official of Gongsun's family from the beginning, while the latter started as an ordinary soldier and was Gongsun Xun's personal guest from the beginning;

As for Guan Yu and Gao Shun, the former was just a fugitive murderer from Hedong, and the latter was just a criminal accomplice in the army in the past;

There are also Wei Yue and Cheng Lian, who are all wanderers from the border counties who have lost their hometown and foundation;

As for Tian Chou, Tian Yu, Zhao Yun, Zhang Nan, Jiao Chu, Wen Ze, Yuwen Heita, Zhang Fan and others, although they can be regarded as powerful and powerful aliens with different origins, they all came from Gongsun Xun who settled in Changping.

Local people at their base.

There is only one person who can help, a member of the Anping clan who is also a ranger, but this time he has also been transferred to a local position, and this person is not an ordinary minion.

In other words, speaking of the leading generals and subordinates in the army, who are just the minions, who dares to argue with Gongsun Xun? In other words, who among these people can rely on to stand up to Gongsun Xun?

?

Of course, if you want to understand this, Tian Feng is not shocked... After all, when it comes to Gongsun Xun's deliberate intentions, others don't know, doesn't he, Tian Feng, know? He has scolded the other person for harboring evil intentions for more than ten years. Could it be that he

Isn’t it Tian Yuanhao?

Only when he thought of the troubled times recorded in the history books, those generals betrayed and changed sides as common as eating and drinking, and then countless heroes were embarrassed by these things, Tian Yuanhao felt a little sad for the other princes in the world.

"And let's talk about it this way." Gongsun Xun, who didn't know that Tian Feng was slandering him in his heart, suddenly burst into laughter in the audience. "Those local officials, the generals and subordinates' misconduct has led to disaster, and it's about to happen...

Let me tell you, ordinary officials with less than two thousand stones do not need to work hard for the overall situation of the world, but if they cannot appease the people and restore peace to a place, they still have to worry about it; and those powerful men who have thousands of soldiers and regulate the place have to worry about it.

, military leader, when facing a duel, apart from the military law, I don’t care about their self-protection in troubled times, but if they plunder excessively, invade the place, and kill indiscriminately, they deserve to be punished!"

Among the several Hedong tycoons who had just arrived here from the prison camps, from Yang Feng to Cheng Yin, from Li Le to Han Xian, there were many changes in their expressions... but they were either relaxed or nervous.

"As for going down further..." Gongsun Xun sighed more and more. "In the army, they are ordinary soldiers, and in politics, they are ordinary ordinary people from good families... If you ask me, they are all innocent people! As the saying goes, those who are above are like boats, and those who are below are ordinary people.

The water is clear in ordinary times, but in troubled times, the water becomes turbid. Isn't it because we, the boats, stir up the water? Why should we criticize and vent our hatred on the water itself? This principle is not only

I, Gongsun Xun, all of you, whether you are as big as two thousand dan or as small as a village official, you must keep this in mind... Otherwise, if you count each one as one, you are still here to attack Dong Zhuo, so you might as well stay with me in Changping and plant chestnuts!

"

There was a moment of silence in the courtyard of Yao's ancestral temple.

"So," Gongsun Xun's long story of chaos is finally coming to an end. "People from good families and ordinary soldiers must be treated as kindly as possible... In military terms, if they are soldiers in one's own army, they must be fed and clothed.

They also have military pay, and are guaranteed to have functional rewards, and guilty will be punished; but in the enemy's army, except when there is no last resort, you should try to preserve it as much as possible! This is why I released 40,000 to 50,000 Baibo bandits in Hedong before.

These people are just trying to survive in troubled times, and some of the blame has been shouldered by Mrs. Guo alone, so why should they be harshly punished? As for ordinary people, we should be as considerate as possible and not easily harassed!"

After saying this, everyone saw that Gongsun Xun was a general and half of the political affairs had been dealt with from top to bottom. This could be regarded as expressing his principles for dealing with all parties, and they all stood up to express their opinions... The leader was naturally Wang Xiu

, Lou Gui, Xi Zhong, Han Dang, Gao Shun and others, and even Tian Feng did not have any trouble. They were listed after the two of them. Most of the people in the Youzhou army were among the two thousand stone soldiers.

Under the leadership of the senior officials, they all bowed and said yes to show their approval; although Wang Yi and Liu Yu did not say a word, they also stood up and raised their hands, which did not undermine the overall situation.

In this way, everyone expressed their stance. It was not only Hedong's formal surrender and allegiance, but also the new and old people in Bingzhou, Youzhou, and Hedong temporarily unified their thoughts before facing Dong Zhuo directly... So far, after all, it was a unified process.

It was a fairly qualified conference.

Of course, it is probably inevitable that some of them will be dissatisfied... As long as the overall situation of Dong Dong is at the forefront, Gongsun Xun also has a strong army at hand, so it doesn't matter:

It is true that Gongsun Xun was harsh on the family, but it was still ten thousand times worse than Dong Zhuo who killed the whole family at every turn. Moreover, the powerful army was here and its momentum was strong. Who would step forward to commit suicide in vain?

Immediately, everyone returned to their seats with their own thoughts... But when things got to this point, Gongsun Xun, the master of the room, was supposed to raise a toast to each other, but he still sat still and had no intention of starting a banquet, which was quite surprising.

Feeling uneasy.
To be continued...
