Chapter 3195: Family grudges and two people's hearts
『Ping the drum!』
『March!』
Zhu Zhi, standing on the warship, waved his arm and urged the Jiangdong Army to attack forward.
He cannot completely ignore Zhu Ran's life and death, but he cannot only care about Zhu Ran's life and death.
Zhu Zhi has two sons, strictly speaking, four, but he died prematurely. In addition, Zhu Ran can be considered as three sons. In this way, it seems that Zhu Ran is not harmful, but in fact it is a complete overturn.
If the Zhu family lacks Zhu Ran, it is possible that they will change their surname to Sun directly!
Zhu Zhi got a son when he was old.
Originally, Zhu Zhi thought he had no son, so he accepted Zhu Ran as his adopted son in order to inherit his legacy and inherit his family business. However, he did not expect that after taking Zhu Ran, Zhu Cai was born...
At this time, Zhu Ran was the eldest, and Zhu Cai was just young.
Zhu's army was already familiar with Zhu Ran, and Zhu Ran did have some skills. If he had a general, he would be afraid that the Zhu family would be killed by his father and son. You should know that the survival rate of children in the Han Dynasty was very low, and Zhu Zhi did not dare to say that his children would survive, so he did not dare to throw Liu Feng aside immediately like Liu Bei.
As Zhu Cai gradually grew up, Zhu Ran's proportion in Zhu's family's foundation increased instead of decreasing.
The reason is very simple. Zhu Zhi was naturally doting too much when he was old and could not discipline him. Therefore, Zhu Cai was in the dangerous environment of Jiangdong. When he was young, he was confused and ungrateful. He just knew how to dance guns and sticks, ride horses and shoot arrows!
But Sun Quan praised this and also specially encouraged it...
As the eldest son of Zhu, he did not understand scriptures and did not know the art of war. He just knew how to ride a horse and whip and charge, but he thought he could defeat the world?
So can Zhu Zhi hand over the Zhu family business to such a person?
Later, Zhu Zhi had a second biological son. He thought he could teach and train him carefully this time, but he didn't expect that the training was cultivated, which was indeed good. Then Sun Quan targeted him again, so he asked Sun Ce's daughter to marry Zhu Zhi's second son.
So Zhu Zhi's two sons, one is brave but not wise, only know how to do things recklessly, and the other is the princess, half of the Sun family. He wanted to wait for his third son to become a talent, but he lost his luck. Zhu Zhi's two sons died prematurely in succession.
Now Zhu Zhi took Zhu Ran to the battle, on the one hand, for the foundation of the Zhu family, and on the other hand, for further winning over Zhu Ran. In the chaotic times, if there were no people like Zhu Ran to protect the family business for Zhu, his two sons would have directly ruined Zhu!
But now Zhu Ran is captured by the Sichuan and Shu army...
This suddenly forced Zhu Zhi into a dilemma.
If you continue to attack without caring about it, then Zhu Ran has a high probability of death.
This is obviously going to directly harm the interests of Zhu.
If Zhu Ran was to survive, Zhu Zhi had to stop this war.
Letting the war stop will definitely be detrimental to the Sun family's great cause.
So, is it Gu Quan Zhu's family or protect the Sun family?
Zhu Zhi must make a decision, and before making this decision, he must do it first or determine something.
Zhu Zhi stared at the front line.
He is from Jiangdong, but he is also the head of the Zhu family.
Which country or country is more important?
People of different beliefs naturally have different choices.
Nowadays, local governments are in charge of their own affairs, and the court orders are even more said to have them. If they want to have them, there will be no one. If the people have resentment, they will all have orders from the superiors. If they get the benefits, they will be difficult locally. Those who say they are loyal and honest. In fact, corrupt officials will be appointed one after another, and they will be killed and eliminated...
Under such circumstances, what kind of belief does Zhu Zhi have?
What choice will you make?
"Governor..."
The guard beside Zhu Zhi looked around and called out in a low voice, as if he wanted to say something.
But Zhu Zhi did not look back, as if he was shouting for a fierce battle.
The guard was a little helpless. He felt that Zhu Zhi’s current location was not very good, and it was a little too close to the mountain city.
From his perspective, above the mountain city...
not good!
"Governor! Dangerous!"
The guard shouted, he had already seen stone bullets roaring out above the mountain city, flying towards Zhu Zhi's tower ship.
Zhu Zhi still did not move.
The next moment, a stone bullet roared and fell on the surroundings of Zhuzhi's boat.
『Bang!』
Large splashes of water splashed and filled their sight.
Zhu Zhi fell down slowly...
"Governor!"
"Governor!!"
The guards hurried forward and protected Zhu Zhi.
Perhaps Zhu Zhi was eager to fight, or perhaps the mountain city had strengthened its range. Anyway, the stone bombs and sulphur bombs on the mountain city are now hitting the surroundings of Zhu Zhi's flagship as if they were not expensive.
The intertwined splashes and flames are also a wonder.
The war drums in Jiangdong ended completely.
"Governor!!"
There was chaos on the flagship of the building ship.
Zhu Zhi was not injured all over the body, but he just fell into a coma with his eyes closed.
The Zhu guards hurriedly carried Zhu Zhi into the cabin, and then turned around and escaped from such a dangerous situation without saying a word.
The flag was moved and the whole army was attracted by it.
The first one to retreat was not someone else, but the Zhu family's direct troops led by Zhu Zhi.
Of course there is no problem with this matter. After all, most of the central army are from the Zhu family, or the Jiangdong Military Academy, which has a close relationship with the Zhu family...
These Zhu's direct troops are closely related to the Zhu's own family. When Zhu Zhi fell down, he would withdraw his troops regardless of the changes in the battlefield. For them, Zhu Zhi was their heaven. If he fell down today, what else is more terrifying than the sky falling?
"withdraw!"
Once the central army moves, it involves the entire army.
In the water and land of Jiangdong, the drummers who were beating drums opened their mouths wide and turned their heads to look in the direction of Zhu Zhi's flagship. Seeing that Zhu Zhi's flagship made the flag crooked, Zhu Zhi was not seen on the tower ship, and he couldn't help but relax his hand and the drumstick fell.
As soon as the war drum stopped, all the soldiers in Jiangdong noticed something was wrong and turned around and looked back.
Then at this moment, it seemed that everyone's movements had stopped for a few breaths.
『What's the situation?!』
"withdraw……"
The Jiangdong Central Army retreated sharply, and the two wings that were stretched out naturally became rootless trees.
Some clever ones yelled immediately, turned around and ran away, while others were slow and stood there, at a loss.
The defeat was like a mountain of defeat.
Without faith, how many people have balls?
"Aoao! Kill it up! Change your military merits at the head..."
Gan Ning was already fighting and bloody, and was still moving forward with a knife.
This battle is the hardest line.
The pressure of the Sichuan and Shu navy must be completely resisted by him.
At the beginning of the war, he led the navy and his army because of the loss, but others had a lot of gossip...
No matter in any dynasty, no matter ancient and modern, Chinese and foreign, there will always be much more people who gossip with their waists on their backs than do things.
Didn’t Gan Ning train the Sichuan and Shu naval army with all their heart and soul? But the soldiers did not frame and click, and then their proficiency could rise. Isn’t it normal for Jiangdong soldiers who are good at water warfare to be suppressed?
But some people will whisper, whisper, and discuss this and that.
Gan Ning didn't seem to say anything on the surface, but there was a fire hidden in his heart, and now everything exploded!
After this battle, as long as the Sichuan and Shu naval armies who survived will become the backbone of the future naval armies!
On the mountain city, Zhuge Liang shook his head and looked at the Jiangdong army, who was defeated by Zhu Zhi alone, and sighed, "The defeat of Jiangdong is not the soldiers who are not brave, and the soldiers are not strong, which is the disadvantage of the control."
"What is the disadvantage of the system?" Faping asked.
Zhuge Liang nodded, "The Jiangdong military system is the only one who is the one who is the one who is the one who is the one who is the one who is the one who is the one who is the one who is the one who is the one who is the one who is the one who is the one who is the one who is the one who is the one who is the one who is the one who is the one who is the one who is the one who is the one who is the one who is the one who is the one who is the one who is the one who is
The system of military-teaching is also called the "leading system" or the "world-teaching system". The monarch gave his subjects a fixed number of military soldiers, the father died and the son succeeded, and the brothers died and the brothers died. It can basically be regarded as the private armed forces of the family. Although the troops of generals in other countries were relatively common in history, the situation of hereditary situations is rare. Compared with Wei and Shu, the system of military-teaching in Eastern Wu was obviously more feudal.
"Since this is the case, does Jiangdong not know the disadvantages?" Faping saw that the current situation of war had been lifted, and the soldiers of Jiangdong fled and retreated, and the entire victory and defeat had completely turned to Sichuan and Sichuan, so he naturally relaxed and became interested in the political issues mentioned by Zhuge Liang.
Zhuge Liang nodded, "The lord has words, and the system is the government. If the politics is unclear, the system must be detrimental. The system in Jiangdong is caused by the lord's unclear and the ministers' disloyalty. It is not the fault of the people or the soldiers."
Faping bowed, "Please also be engaged in giving advice."
Zhuge Liang couldn't help feeling a little when he looked at Zhu Ran crying on the city wall.
Just now, the elite Zhu soldiers rushed to the city. Isn’t it just to identify with their own eyes whether Zhu Ran was really captured?
Zhu Zhi's decision was so decisive that he showed his viciousness and ethics on the one hand, and on the other hand, he did show the ills of Jiangdong to the fullest...
However, these things were also expected by Zhuge Liang.
『The defeat in this battle is not the general's crime...』 Zhuge Liang walked to Zhu Ran, whose nose was covered in tears, "Major General Zhu knew that the Lord's painstaking efforts should be fulfilled, so he should do more filial piety... I'm here, please ask Major General Zhu to go back and rest!"
Someone took Zhu Ran away naturally.
Faping looked aside, and seemed to have some insight.
"When engaged in this Zhu family... wasn't he afraid of... being blamed on him?" Faping was a little difficult to understand.
Zhuge Liang laughed, "There will be a punishment for the punishment, but the family business soldiers are in hand, and they only hurt their fur and do not move their muscles and bones, so it's okay... let alone...
Zhuge Liang shook his head, "Sun Zhongmou is not good at Jiangdong, Zhou Gongjin is seriously ill, and there are chaos in Nanyue... The Jiangdong clan was originally unwilling to go on an expedition, and Zhu Junli's actions were exactly what the Jiangdong clan wanted. How could he not be related to each other and help each other? It was mostly thunder and rain was slow."
Faping suddenly realized.
Any system is formulated by the superstructure, and there is no doubt that it is impossible to negotiate an effective system by the free discussion of ordinary people. In history, nomadic alliance system has not developed any high degree of civilization for thousands of years, which means that the free alliance is basically a gimmick, and the oligarchs who really work under the skin of the alliance are still dominating.
At the beginning of the dynasty, the system might be biased towards the bottom, but as the number of ruling classes increased, more and more knives were snatching the interests of the people, which would eventually lead to the distribution of interests tending to the ruling class, and would become more and more harsh to the bottom. Typically, the Ming Dynasty saw some systems close to the people in its early days, but the further development, the Ming Dynasty became more and more corrupt. By the end of the Ming Dynasty, it was already standing opposite to the people. Even if the Qing army did not enter the pass, it would inevitably be defeated by the next dynasty.
Therefore, the Jiangdong military-giving system was originally a system that existed for the Sun family to survive in Jiangdong. The "Fengqi System" and "Re-custom system" were the "Fengqi System" and the "Re-custom system" were the financial source for recruiting private soldiers, while the latter was used to protect the personal expenses of military and generals. In fact, the Jiangdong military-giving system relied on the cutting and concession between military and economic rights. In other words, the military-giving generals achieved the independence of military and political and financial to a certain extent. It is obvious that this poses serious hidden dangers to the rulers.
Although such a system has caused Jiangdong to make no big mistakes in a short period of time, it has also led to major hidden dangers in Jiangdong. By transferring power, the enthusiasm of generals is mobilized, which is a wartime policy and is highly temporary. Therefore, after the regime is stable, countermeasures need to be taken to avoid the warlordization of soldiers and generals and the local vassalization.
But it is convenient to get it out, but difficult to get it back.
Moreover, this kind of thing is very difficult to control, resulting in the fact that in the later period of Sun Quan, he could not command the generals at all. Even Lu Su's image as an honest person in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms had more than 10,000 direct subordinates, which made Sun Quan very worried. After finally waiting for Lu Su to die, he showed a pig like a whisper...
Why do Lu Su have so many soldiers?
That's because after Zhou Yu's death, Lu Su led his troops on his behalf.
Why didn’t Zhou Yu dare to let Sun Quan lead his troops when he died?
Anyone who understands this will naturally understand it.
In order to control these generals and prevent them from expanding infinitely, Jiangdong's troops were almost completely privatized. Generals recruited themselves, raised money on their own, took on their own profits and losses, and took all risks themselves. In this way, the recruited soldiers must only listen to the generals, rather than obeying Sun Shiwan's orders. In order to deal with these problems, Sun Quan was forced to invent many supporting measures, such as Fengyi system, re-custom system, etc. to restrict generals. The Fengyi system and re-custom system both at the cost of transferring taxes and population, which in turn damaged Jiangdong's financial foundation.
In other words, to patch a bug, more bugs are created...
Looking at the development history of Jiangdong, attacking Shanyue, everyone is competing for the first place, but fighting against foreign countries is a mess.
To attack Shanyue means expanding private troops, but fighting against foreign countries means to consume private troops.
Therefore, in the foreign war in Jiangdong, not only did the Jiangdong clans have low desire to fight, but even the Huaisi Group often did not work hard in order to preserve its strength.
The current problems of the Jiangdong system have been fully demonstrated.
As soon as Zhu Zhi fell, the central army retreated directly, leading to the defeat of the entire army...
In any major battle, only after the outcome is decided can a real large number of casualties begin to occur.
There will be victory or defeat first, and then there will be major casualties.
So morale is very important.
Maybe Jiangdong really has the chance to capture Yufu, maybe it's just a little bit worse, but it doesn't matter now. When the line in the hearts of Jiangdong soldiers broke, the Jiangdong army, which was ten times more powerful than Yufu, began to retreat on a large scale...
Once people's hearts are down, it has nothing to do with combat power or number of people.
Suppose that at this time someone shouted among the Jiangdong Army, gathered up the soldiers and counterattacked the Yufu Sichuan and Shu defenders who were chasing the entire line, would not only not lose, but also have a chance to fight back and capture Yufu.
But war is not such a simple calculation.
It's the human heart.
Zhu Zhi fell down, what if he killed all Yu and restored the defenders?
Every military academy, even every soldier in Jiangdong, knew in his heart that there were many people, but the more people they were, the less it was possible to work together.
Looking at the entire history of China, there are only a few that can make the whole country work together...
So now, the choice placed in front of the soldiers in Jiangdong is very simple. Whoever escapes in front and lives.
Those who fall behind will die.
A large number of casualties began to appear when they fled...
『Retreat! Retreat!』
A certain Jiangdong Military Academy shouted, "Go east! Follow the governor's ship!"
Yu Fu failed in this battle, so the camp built here would definitely not be able to be kept, so he could only continue to retreat east. Fortunately, he ran down the river, which would save effort.
As for the other Jiangdong soldiers who were on the shore and had not had time to board the boat...
"Wait a moment!"
The Jiangdong soldiers on the shore rushed towards the riverside, trying to rush onto the boat that was about to withdraw.
"Ahhhh... I'm not rowing quickly! The boat is about to overturn!"
At the military academy on the ship, they cut off the fingers of the Jiangdong soldiers who were desperately stalking on the side of the ship.
One by one, the fingers were like ham sausages, falling into the river.
The military academy's veins burst out, like crazy, and even more effort was needed than attacking Yu Fu just now.
Just kidding, even if it is defeated, it is the general's credit, but now if you take a step at night, then you will die!
"Kill! Kill the Jiangdong thief!" Wu Ban was full of energy and chased from the island to Jiangzhong. He still refused to give up. He held up his sword and took his guards. When he met Jiangdong soldiers, he slashed and slashed.
The sun gradually sets westward and dusk is coming. Many soldiers from Jiangdong who are in a panic can't board the ship, so many people try to escape into the mountains.
Yan Yan, who was blocked from the mountain city, was different from Wu Ban who was determined to cut more heads and earn more merit. He shouted, "Driving away the defeated soldiers! Drive away the defeated soldiers!"
The speed of chopping with one knife and one shot is too slow.
Under Yan Yan's order, the Sichuan and Sichuan soldiers began to line up and stabbed the stubborn Jiangdong soldiers who were trying to resist, and drove the Jiangdong defeated soldiers to the Jiangdong camp not far away...
"ah!"
"Mom..."
Screams burst out loud.
When you are happy, you are happy and when you are in pain, you think of your mother.
In fact, there are still many Jiangdong soldiers garrisoning in the Jiangdong camp, and these Jiangdong soldiers did not lose much physical strength. However, when they saw the Jiangdong defeated soldiers rushing towards them, these Jiangdong guards immediately turned around and ran away.
The mountains and fields were filled with Jiangdong soldiers running around.
It's like the already chaotic hearts of Jiangdong.
