My lord, you said that there are two things, the first thing is the disciplinary examination, then what is the second thing?”
After Zhu Pingan announced the epoch-making disciplinary assessment, the crowd of Zhejuns became even more curious about the second thing.
“The second thing is that this official is going to add a military law.”Zhu Pingan stood on the high platform, slowly scanned the crowd and opened his mouth with a serious face, revealing a mouthful of cold teeth.
“Military law?”
“And increase the military law?What military law ah?Adults are so serious ……”The crowd of Zhejiang troops looked at each other in dismay, judging from the seriousness of His Excellency, this military law must be extraordinary.
“We marched out from the peach blossom set, all the way to the south, rushed straight to the Japanese, to relieve the siege of Yingtian; late at night on that day, we had marched out to the temporary quarters of the Japanese, and killed all fifty-six of them, this is the glory of our Zhejian army, and it is even more of an honour for you all. However, behind the glory there is also dirt!When we rushed straight at the Japanese invaders, some people were afraid, timid, retreated and scattered, and our army formation was disturbed as a result; if the Japanese invaders hadn’t retreated in a hurry and fronted up to fight, the consequences would have been unimaginable: when we annihilated the Japanese invaders in the late-night battle, faced with the death-defying counterattacks of the nine Japanese invaders who were hit by the peacock’s tails, there were people who were greedy for their lives and fearful of death, who deserted their positions and were afraid of fighting, and even some people who fled faster even lost their weapons and armour.Even some people even lost their weapons and armour in order to escape faster. ……If we hadn’t planned in advance to make the Japanese get hit by the peacock tail psychedelic, and we were outnumbered, the one who failed in this battle would have been our Zhejiang army!”
Zhu Pingan stood on the stage with a serious face, and cited the problems of the Yingtian war against the Japanese one by one.
As Zhu Pingan’s words trailed off, many people on the stage lowered their heads in shame and turned red in the face, they were the very people who were fearful of death, fearful of the battle and fled first, and abandoned their armour, as exemplified by Zhu Pingan’s words.
“What Your Excellency said is very true, these people who are greedy for life and afraid of death are truly ashamed to be associated with them!”
“Mentioning them makes me angry, when fighting they hide behind, but when distributing bounties, they are scrambling to rush forward, now with the disciplinary assessment it’s fine, they don’t go forward in battle, they don’t contribute, they also share less or simply can’t share the bounties.”
“It’s not just a matter of money or not, the next time we fight the Japanese, we’ll be screwed over by these death-hungry people!Once they flee, the army formation will be in disarray and their morale will be scattered, so how can they fight against the Japanese.”
Many people were filled with righteous indignation, they had endured it for a long time, and had long been dissatisfied with the individual death-hungry people in the battalion.
Zhu Pingan reached out his hand, and the stage fell silent.
“Yue Wumu once said that the world will be peaceful if the civil officials do not love money and the military generals are not afraid of death. After wearing this skin and receiving this pay, you have to take on the responsibility of defending your family and country!To be a soldier is to fight!Being a soldier is about fighting!From today onwards, all of you must rate to remember these words:For promotion and wealth, please take a different path;For greed and fear of death, do not enter the Zhejian army!”
Zhu Pingan swept across the room with a serious face and said to the crowd impassionedly word by word.
“For promotion and wealth, please take a different path;for greed of life and fear of death, do not enter the Zhejiang Army!”
These words were very shocking and infectious, and after hearing them, the Zhejuns on stage were greatly encouraged and shouted after them.
Zhu Pingan noticed which of the people under the stage were ashamed, and after a slight pause, he said, “Of course, a person is not a sage, who can not make mistakes, and if you can change after making a mistake, there is nothing better. The past will turn the page, not to blame!From today onwards, all the Zhejiang army generals, from me, down to all of you every one, every battle must be brave to fight first!Shall not retreat and flee!”
“Promise!”The Zhejian troops under the stage answered one after another.
“But my lord, some people can’t change their behaviour, what about them?”
“Yes my lord, as the saying goes, mountains and rivers are easy to change, but nature can’t be changed, some people he is just selfish. Talking well now, when the time comes, against the Japanese again, they may still run as usual.”
Soon, another Zhejian army raised a question.
“Very well, you all have raised a good question, this is the reason why this official is adding a military law!”
Zhu Pingan verbally praised the general who raised the question, then logically led to the military law.
“In times of chaos, heavy punishments should be used!Now that the Japanese are becoming more and more serious, time is running out, there is no time to slowly reform cowardly people who are afraid of war, the only way is to grow fast, so this official has specially formulated this military law. This military law is called: the law of guilt by association!”Zhu Pingan said with a serious face.
“Sit-in law?”
“How?”
After hearing the name of the Sitting-in Law, the crowd of Zhejiang troops couldn’t help but open their mouths wide, just hearing the name sent a chill down their spine.
They basically have heard of sit-in, a person commits a mistake, not only he himself to be punished, his relatives around the neighbourhood and so on should also be punished, depending on the sit-in to what extent.
“From today onwards, the enactment of the law of guilt by association, mainly including three elements, from the officer to the officer, down to you every soldier, are all exceptions. The first item, the superior officer for the subordinate officer ‘sit-in’ guarantee. As the saying goes, the soldier bears a bear, will be able to a nest. Officers are the soul of the army and the role model of the soldiers, and superior officers are the role model of the inferior officers. In our ZheJiang army, every level of officer has to guarantee for the subordinate officers and write a guarantee, and this officer also has to guarantee for the battalion commanders and write a guarantee. The content of the guarantee is roughly as follows: now I, so-and-so, for the Department under so-and-so guarantee, guarantee so-and-so is not a cowardly, fear of death, now after its desertion, I am willing to be the same crime, with the guarantor so-and-so!And sign and draw a pledge.”Zhu Pingan stood on the high platform and said loudly.
“Ah?!What?!!A superior officer vouching for an inferior officer?!Our lord is also going to vouch for the battalion commander?!In that case, if the subordinate officer is greedy and afraid of death and runs away from the battlefield, then the superior officer is also guilty with him!This is ……In the past, when we sat in prison, we sat in prison for those below us, but I didn’t realise that our lord would be so cruel as to start with himself, and sit in prison for those who are in charge. ……
“Surprisingly, it’s the official who is the first to be seduced ……”
As soon as Zhu Pingan’s words fell, the crowd of Zhejuns under the stage couldn’t help but be shocked out of their voices, shocked by Zhu Pingan’s vigour.
“Hehe, all battalion commanders, take care of yourselves in the future, this official’s life is tied to you.”Zhu Pingan smiled faintly and arched his hand to the several battalion commanders in front of him, then revealed a mouthful of white teeth and said, “In order to save my life, I will drill and manage you all ruthlessly!If this official finds out that any of you are greedy and incompetent, don’t blame this official for mercilessly laying off!”
Liu Mu and the others hurriedly stated, “Don’t worry, my lord, the last general will never be greedy and afraid of death, on the mountain of swords, under the sea of fire, and will never take half a step back!”
Zhu Pingan smiled faintly, half-serious and half-joking, “To remind you, your lives are also in the hands of your subordinate officers.”
Liu Dazhou and the others suddenly came to a realisation, and hurriedly put a stern word with the subordinates behind them that they will surely drill and manage you ruthlessly in the future, don’t think that bribing and saying good words and begging for leniency can get you through, which one is incompetent, which one is greedy and afraid of life and death, I will definitely remove him……
