Chapter 675, Internal strife
The words Qin Zhiping said were all his true words.
He also fully understood what these people were thinking.
The Northern Front Army was defeated, and then the remnants were transferred to the Southern Front Army. In the end, the war was won. What benefits did they gain?
It's rare.
The best they can do is to distribute them according to their military merits, and they still have to shoulder the responsibility for previous defeats. After this reduction, I'm afraid there will be nothing left.
But it would be different if the Northern Front Army could be 'rebuilt'.
Although the previous defeat was still an indelible stain, they were not completely wiped out. Instead, they formed an independent army and played a vital role in the subsequent war. In the final analysis of merit and rewards, as an independent front army, there will definitely be many more benefits than a defeated general with a remnant army.
But the only question is: can we still win the war if we engage in internal strife before the war and there are still many little ones in our hearts?
By now, they are all remnants of the army, and they are still doing such messy things, which really makes Qin Zhiping feel sick.
He sincerely believed that the previous defeat of the Northern Front Army was due to insufficient organization, insufficient unity, and too many people who were half-hearted.
Otherwise, if they had really held on to the end and fought with all their strength, the Northern Front Army would not necessarily have collapsed and failed in the naval battle.
At least he won't lose like this.
To put it bluntly, I deserve to be treated like this.
How can you defeat the insects when you are with these insects?
If you want to win and wash away the shame of defeat, you should obey Commander-in-Chief Gu's orders and fight well under the command of the alliance army.
Qin Zhiping admired Gu Hang very much.
Earlier, after hearing many rumors, especially Marshal Leroy's evaluation of Gu Hang at the 'Swearing-off Conference', he actually didn't like Gu Hang that much.
Even malicious.
After all, the iron armor they came to beat this time was a series of problems caused by the development of local separatist forces. Although Commander-in-Chief Gu was a friendly force fighting alongside them on the southern front, this could not change the fact that Gu Hang's so-called 'alliance' had a strong background of local separatist forces.
Moreover, if the alliance had not been developed for a short time and was not strong enough in the early days, they would be more questionable than Iron Armor.
This is Qin Zhiping's view from the perspective of his own duties as a judge.
The Human Iron Armor is a battle group after all, and has natural rights within the political environment and political conventions of the empire. The Chapter's homeworld is theirs; they have high command authority and can take over the command of various Imperial armies in various battles where there are no other Space Marines. Coupled with the name of fighting against a 'black hole in the void', it is quite reasonable for them to expand and develop.
The rationality of the alliance is much smaller.
As a judge, from a professional perspective, he is naturally full of doubts about such situations.
But now, he has no such views.
The Alliance saved his life and that of his men, but that wasn't the key factor. More importantly, the nature of this behavior can be interpreted to mean that Gu Hang does not care so much about personal honor and disgrace, and does not mind the previous bad relationship with the Northern Front Army. He will act for the ultimate goal of the victory of the empire and the victory of mankind.
How loyal!
In addition, after he was rescued, he had been in the Alliance Army for several months, and he could see a lot of things.
He believes that Gu Hang is very loyal; Gu Hang's management and rule of the alliance, at least in terms of the army, is perfect and reliable, better than any other army he has seen with his own eyes; among the armies of the alliance, Among them, as the presiding judge, he did not find any corruption problems...
Compared with the Northern Front Legion, which had no affiliation and was forced together, the alliance here is much more reliable.
There may not be any difference when fighting with a tailwind, but when there is a headwind and you need to grit your teeth and persevere, the difference will emerge. Now, Qin Zhiping just believes that if he wants to win the war, he must follow the alliance and Commander-in-Chief Gu.
These losers now want to push Xi Rui out to cause trouble, which is directly stepping on Qin Zhiping's bottom line.
Get a hammer!
If there were only those insects, Qin Zhiping didn't even want to waste his time talking nonsense with them. He reported it directly to Gu Hang and then made a suggestion: arrest these people, and then he can talk to the deputies and middle-level officers below them Have a good talk. Those who are disloyal can be dealt with; and those who remain wavering can be made more loyal. Then, the alliance can send some mid- to high-level officers to take over these troops.
However, there is the biggest variable and the most difficult character here, and that is the Black Cross Army Marshal-Xi Rui.
If he hadn't been living under someone else's roof and on Xi Rui's boat, he could have scolded Xi Rui as well.
But isn’t that impossible?
He also had to worry about whether Xi Rui had arranged for three hundred swordsmen and axemen to come in and punish him just waiting for the cup to be thrown.
Then everything will stop.
No matter what Xi Rui did, he probably wouldn't kill him, but he would just imprison him, and then use his identity as the "Commander-in-Chief of the Northern Front" to play the role of the backbone, create a split, and establish an independent system outside the alliance. The command system is on an equal footing with the Alliance...
That's still possible.
He had no doubt that the final winner would definitely be Commander-in-Chief Gu, who he had found to be very powerful during this period of observation. However, it is never a good thing to start internal turmoil before a war.
He wants to stop all this, and the key person here is Xi Rui himself.
His previous persuasion was not so much about persuading everyone as it was about persuading Xi Rui.
"The progress of the war has become an established fact. But failure is not terrible. After failure, further ruin of reputation is more terrible. Once something we don't want to happen happens, it may affect not only ourselves, but also the people behind us. Everything.”
His words already had the meaning of warning, but he just said it clearly: Xi Rui, if you act without a clear mind, not only you will be unlucky in the end, but also the entire Black Crusade.
He believed Xi Rui understood.
At this moment, Xi Rui sighed and shook his head, ignored Qin Zhiping, and said to the others in the communication: "You all want me to stand up and talk to Gu Hang about whether the Northern Front Army should conduct unified and independent command operations. ?”
"Yes."
Many people responded.
"I object!" Qin Zhiping's pale voice beside him seemed very isolated.
"Then let's do it." Xi Rui said, "I will think about it, and you should all be prepared."
After saying that, he closed the communication.
Turn around and face Qin Zhiping.
Qin Zhiping had already taken out his plasma pistol.
