Chapter 496

Zhao Bing also had a worry at this time that the thoughts of some officers and soldiers would change after returning to their hometown. They would rather reunite with their families in Quanzhou than return to Qiongzhou with themselves. This problem not only troubled him, but also troubled military commanders of all generations. Huang Xianyao prohibited his family from looking for relatives because of this consideration. He thought that intimidation, surveillance, and banning the camps by severe punishments and laws are all good ways, so Zhao Bing believes that it is better to be relieved than to be blocked at the moment.

Missing your hometown and missing your relatives is a human nature. If you forcefully prohibit it without analysis, it is not only a violation of human ethics, but also a violation of human nature. This will only make people disgusted and resist, and even escape and resist. Even if you stay in the camp, you will have a passive confrontation. This will not be beneficial to the next battle, but if you leave a channel for them to vent, plus the constraints of military discipline, you can avoid attracting ** to a certain extent.

Then Zhao Bing went to the adjacent Houjun camp, which was much more lively than the previous military camp. The Houjun army formed an army based on the volunteerism brought out by the Zhuang brothers and the recruited royal army. The Zhuang family was a large clan in Quanzhou. After evacuating with the court, Suodu and Pu Shougeng cleaned the Zhuang family and razed the village to the ground. In order to avoid the persecution of the Yuan army, the Zhuang family scattered all over the country. After hearing that the Zhuang brothers led their troops back to their hometown, they all came to investigate the whereabouts of their relatives. When they saw it, they cried with joy, and when they heard the bad news, they heard the sad voices.

"See Your Majesty!" Although Zhao Bing became the emperor, he brought the general's army with him. The veterans all knew each other and walked freely in the camp. When Zhuang Siqi heard about it, His Majesty had already walked to the big tent.

"No gift!" Zhao Bingxu helped him and said, "Is there enough food?"

"Your Majesty, this... I am guilty!" Zhuang Siqi had already seen the little emperor's boots covered with mud, and knew that he had been walking along the way, so he could see clearly the situation in the camp. According to military discipline, family members were not allowed to live in and out in the military camp, and the people were not allowed to enter and exit at will. His rear army had become a market. Seeing that His Majesty was unhappy, he thought there was something in his words, so he quickly apologized.

"I have seen it just now. Your fortifications need to be strengthened. Now the troops from Xinghua Army and Fuzhou have come to help at night and will arrive at the latest the next day. However, all the troops stationed have not been covered, the fortress has not been covered, the access has not been repaired, and the road has not been repaired. It must be completed as soon as possible, and there are no obstacles on the periphery!" Zhao Bing pointed out many inappropriate points.

"Your Majesty, I will immediately order people to strengthen my work and work overnight!" Zhuang Siqi said with a red face.

"How do you deal with these people in the camp? Do you ask them to help the war or ask them to stand up and cheer?" Zhao Bing said with some anger.

"Your Majesty, I will clean up the camp area immediately and evacuate the people!" Zhuang Siqi looked at the villagers in the camp and looked embarrassed, but he still gritted his teeth and said.

"Okay, Ni Liang, let's take a rest with this big tent!" Zhao Bing snorted coldly and turned his head to enter the tent.

"Brother..." Seeing that His Majesty entered the tent, Zhuang Siqi quickly ordered someone to prepare tea. He also followed him in, but was grabbed by his elder brother Zhuang Gongzhe.

"Commander Zhuang, do you still have Your Majesty in your eyes? Do you still have this big brother?" Zhuang Gongzhe asked coldly at his brother. He has entered the Military Affairs Office now, and any group of sponsors will follow His Majesty. Of course, His Majesty will follow him when he comes out to inspect.

"Brother, I don't dare!" The elder brother was like his father. Zhuang Siqi was stunned for a moment and said with a tribute.

"Your Majesty has the kindness of taking our brothers in, and he has also entrusted him with important responsibilities. He should repay his kindness." Zhuang Duke Zhe said sternly with anger, "What a great thing this expedition to Quanzhou? Your Majesty has recommended you to lead your troops with you, but what do you do? The west of the city is a barrier of the city, and the important military space, but you let the people go in and out. If there are spies from Tartars among them, wouldn't it be clear at a glance? Not only that, you also keep them in the army. If the war comes together, they will cause trouble and lead the enemy into the camp, and if the city defense is lost, how many heads will you have enough to cut it!"

"Brother, the villagers who followed our king to die and die. Now that my family is here to find relatives and inquire about the news, how can I bear to put them outside the camp?" Zhuang Siqi argued after hearing this.

"You are humane, and you are the only one who brings your relatives to the king in the village?" Zhuang Gongzhe asked even more angrily, "The Huang family is also a major family of Quanzhou officials. The former army commander Huang also serves the king in the whole family. There are fewer children in Quanzhou in the army than in your army. But yesterday they still led the army to assist. Although there were heavy casualties, you can see how the former army camp is a hundred times stronger than your doghouse. And you have not yet entered the city to look for relatives, and you have not put the people in the camp like you do!"

"I...I'm not as hard-hearted as him!" Zhuang Siqi said unconvincedly with his neck still.

"A bastard, you read the books of sages when you were young. After receiving your father's teachings, you should know which one is more important than the family and country. Now you are a soldier, your Majesty's personal army, but you don't want to repay your kindness, but you are still addicted to personal feelings. While you have not made a big mistake, I think you should leave your hometown!" Zhuang Gongzhe shook his sleeves and said angrily.

"Brother..." Zhuang Siqi didn't expect that the eldest brother would say such heavy words, and couldn't help but feel anxious.

"Let's go, you can still save your life if you want to leave your hometown now, continue the incense for my businessman and worship your ancestors!" Zhuang Gongzhe waved his hand, his face full of disappointment, and seemed to have become much older again.

"Brother, I know I'm wrong!" Zhuang Siqi saw that the eldest brother was really annoyed, so he knelt down on one knee and admitted his mistake.

"Your Majesty is benevolence and righteousness. I think you have made a small contribution to the court. I have not criticized you today, but you still feel resentful. You will inevitably do something to betray the Lord and rebel against the Lord in the future. You will be unable to protect your life at that time. Let's go!" Zhuang Gongzhe sighed and pulled his brother up and said.

"Brother, I have no disrespect to Your Majesty. I just expelled these orphans, widowed mothers and displaced villagers from the camp. I really couldn't bear it. I lost my composure, not intentionally!" Zhuang Siqi grabbed the elder brother's clothes and begged.

"Your Majesty can spend all the property in the mansion and take in all kinds of brave men. Zhou Ji's orphans in the army have never given up under great difficulty. He just gained a foothold in Qiongzhou and ordered to find military families and be reunited to Qiongzhou. Quanzhou once was his majesty's fiefdom, and the people in the city were all their people. How could they let them be displaced and have no food and clothing?" Zhuang Duke Zhe shook his head and said seriously, "Your Majesty has just issued an order to ask the army to draw special personnel to register the names and names of those who are looking for relatives, and set up a camp to temporarily adopt them to provide food and clothing. Then search according to the list, if they are killed, they will be given a pension. If they are still in the army, they will be taken in the city and reunited with their relatives in time. Those who are willing to go to Qiongzhou will be taken in and properly placed."
