Chapter 8 I admit that I am a gambler
A group of cronies laughed heartily:
"Don't worry, general, I will definitely make Lord Chang'an despised by all the soldiers in the army!"
"The general is still too cautious. Even if the Lord of Chang'an is allowed to do what he does, he will probably provoke a mutiny."
"Military affairs must be managed by military personnel. A man who has never set foot on the battlefield has become the commander-in-chief, and the soldiers are already feeling angry!”
For this task of confusing right and wrong, the cronies have no pressure.
Ying Chengxuan is indeed the commander-in-chief, but the only people loyal to him are the one hundred soldiers. Without the help of these generals, how could Ying Chengxuan make his voice heard by the entire army?
It’s not just what they say!
As for whether the soldiers believe it or not? Then there is no need to worry.
The military has always been relatively xenophobic, and the Great Qin military is even more so. The soldiers are risking their lives to fight for wealth, and no one wants to follow an incompetent general and lose their lives in vain!
Ying Chengyu, a young general who was only sixteen years old, had no reputation as a soldier, and had never set foot on the battlefield, was a god of plague in the eyes of the soldiers! The god of plague that might kill them!
Soldiers are naturally not of the same mind as Ying Chengyu, and there is no pressure to smear him.
Fan Yuqi's tone turned sharp:
"But I also said ugly things before."
"Suppressing military morale and inducing mutiny are just for excuses. The mutiny was carried out to get rid of Lord Chang'an."
"There will be no military merit in the battle to quell the rebellion. You must not take advantage of the chaos to kill Pao Ze and use Pao Ze's head to receive military merit."
"Don't take this opportunity to abolish public service for personal gain." Go ahead and suppress those who are dissident and use your troops to wreak havoc!”
“Otherwise, I will kill you without mercy!”
A group of cronies quickly responded in a solemn voice:
“ I will wait and obey the general’s orders!”
Fan Yuqi nodded slightly: "You can organize your troops on your own."
When all the cronies left the tent, Liu An did not leave, but asked worriedly:
"General , the general still feels that it is too risky to kill Lord Chang'an through rebellion."
"After all, Lord Chang'an is the second son of the late king and the younger brother of the great king."
" Lord Chang'an is dead, general. You will definitely be blamed!”
Fan Yuqi smiled easily: "The son of the late king and the younger brother of the great king, his status is indeed noble."
"But the problem is that his status is too noble, and he is even qualified to inherit the throne!"
< br>"With such a person here, how can the king feel at ease?"
Fan Yu Qiruo glanced at Liu An pointedly: "Why do you dare to kill Lord Chang'an in the army as a general? "
"The king may punish me for the sake of the royal family, but in the future, the king will definitely promote me!"
Liu An still felt a little uneasy: "But he..."
Fan Yuqi interrupted Liu An and said in a deep voice: "I admit that I am gambling!"
"But Xiangbang has already asked his guest Lao Ai to tell me: No one wants Chang'an Lord to return to Xianyang City alive!"
"Someone must do the inconvenient things for you, and this is what I am doing. It’s to share the worries of the king.”
“Even if the worst happens and I suffer, my family and relatives will definitely be favored by the king.”
"Liu Lieutenant, you will also be missed by the king!"
Of course Fan Yuqi knew that his actions were dangerous, but who among those who fought in the army had not faced danger directly?
Fan Yuqi uses himself to save others and believes that Ying Chengyu should be a thorn in Ying Zheng's side and a thorn in his flesh. This gamble has low risk and high returns.
Then why not place a bet!
Seeing Fan Yuqi's firm attitude, Liu An also put aside his uneasiness and shouted: "I will obey your order!"
While they were talking, the sound of arguments came from outside the big tent.
"Chang'an Lord, please don't force your way in. The general is discussing matters in the tent!" "Chang'an Lord, please wait a moment while I inform you first!"
"You are so impudent, My master is the commander-in-chief of this army. Not to mention the main tent of the central army, there is no need to inform others even if he goes anywhere in this army!"
Fan Yuqi immediately walked out of the big tent and saw Ying! Cheng Yu's family soldiers were confronting the soldiers in the main tent of the Central Army, while Ying Cheng Yu stood behind the family soldiers with his hands behind his back, looking at the tent thoughtfully.
Fan Yuqi hurriedly shouted angrily: "How dare you, this is the commander-in-chief of our army, Lord Chang'an of the Qin Dynasty. How can you have the courage to stop me?"
Hearing Fan Yuqi's words, all the soldiers quickly got out of the way. On the road, Fan Yuqi continued to scold as if his anger had not diminished:
"Today I will deal with the marching law on behalf of the general."
"Captain Liu An!"
"Pull these few soldiers who have committed rebellion out of the central army and punish them twenty times!"
Liu An suddenly handed over his hand: "I will obey your order!"
Several gatekeepers suddenly panicked.
Twenty army sticks cannot kill anyone, but they will go out after the conscription is over. During the bumpy march, their injuries will not get better, but will become infected, and eventually they will die due to wound infection. die.
That would be more uncomfortable than being beaten to death directly!
"Wait a minute!" Ying Chengyu finally spoke up to stop Liu An, and comforted him in a gentle voice: "Seeing that your venerable master can still uphold military discipline and guard the Chinese army's tent without any sloppiness, what's wrong?"< br>
Several soldiers breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly handed over their hands: "Thank you, General, for your kindness!"
Fan Yuqi had no expression on his face, but he was quite scornful in his heart.
Want to have a benevolent image in the military? Another young general who was dumbfounded by the stories of famous generals!
Wu Qi sucked the pus, and the soldiers died in his service.
It seems to be because of Wu Qi's benevolence, but the prerequisite is that Wu Qi is a murderer with high prestige in the army!
You, a person with no prestige in the army, still want to show your kindness, which will only make the whole army bully you even more!
Ying Chengyu smiled and patted one of the soldiers on the shoulder: "I see that you guys are powerful and energetic."
"I think you joined the army for a reason. "What a great achievement."
"In this case, I will recruit you into the first camp and promote you to a high official position. I hope you will fight bravely and win the title of general!"
< br>Several soldiers immediately panicked:
"General, spare your life!"
"The last general's obstruction of the general is out of consideration for military orders, not to embarrass the general!"
They are not new recruits in the army, and they know very well what it means to go to the camp first. What are you wearing?
Although it is easy to achieve success in the first camp, it is difficult to come back alive. The first camp is a cannon fodder camp!
Ying Cheng's face turned cold: "All of us in the First Deng Camp are warriors. I put you into the First Deng Camp out of respect for you, but you promised to spare your life?"
< br>
"Are you greedy for life and afraid of death, or do you want to disobey the general's order?"
Several soldiers were speechless and all looked at Fan Yuqi in unison.
Fan Yuqi's face also turned cold.
He understood clearly that Ying Chengyu did not want to establish a benevolent character at all, but just used this method to tell Fan Yuqi who has the final say here!
However, even if Ying Chengxuan is isolated and helpless in the army, he is still the commander of this army. Fan Yuqi has no way to openly oppose Ying Chengxuan and can only scold his own soldiers:
"Didn't you hear Lord Chang'an's order?"
"Why are you still here? Go and board the camp first!"
Several soldiers were about to cry, but they didn't He could only promise desperately:
"Wei!"
Several soldiers were taken away. Ying Chengyu seemed to have nothing happened, and invited Fan Yuqi with a smile:< br>
"General Fan, the weather is fine today, why not go out to pay respects?"
