Chapter 47 Persuading Huaxiong
After this exercise, my goal has been achieved, and all the soldiers have been trained more vigorously. One by one, their emotions are high and their morale is unprecedentedly high. But Hua Xiong suffers. As the saying goes, good things don't go out, and bad things spread thousands of miles away. The things that Hua Xiong defeated the soldiers in the camp have spread all over the whole like wings. In the barracks, Hua Xiong has been training soldiers in the barracks all day long. To put it bluntly, he dares not go out of the barracks.
One night, Jia Rong came to Hua Xiong's camp alone with a few dishes and a jar of wine collected from Guo Yan.
Seeing Jia Rong coming, Hua Xiong still got up to meet him as usual. In his heart, Hua Xiong agreed with Jia Rong very much. However, from Hua Xiong's face, Jia Rong could not see Hua Xiong's previous self-confidence. In the past, no matter what Hua Xiong did, he was full of confidence, especially his eyes, as if he was telling others that he had nothing. No.
Seeing that Hua Xiong is like this now, Jia Rong didn't want him to go down. He took Hua Xiong to sit down, put away the wine and dishes and said, "General Hua, I know what you think in your heart. It's just lost to me a few soldiers trapped in the camp and lost face. In the future, I will see my colleagues without shame."
Hua Xiong was about to defend. Jia Rong motioned him to be quiet and said, "General Hua, are you afraid of failure?"
Looking at Jia Rong's eyes staring at him, Hua Xiong's eyes kept returning and faltered in a low voice.
Jia Rong poured the wine, and drank all the cup at the back. He said slowly, "I failed today. This is good news, which shows that General Hua can continue to make progress, and there is still room for progress, because failure makes us know our shortcomings; the first person in the Xiliang Army is actually just a false reputation. Yan, does the general care so much about this reputation? Will the general tell the enemy on the battlefield that you are the first person in the Xiliang Army, and he will surrender?
"Of course not. The most important thing is your own strength, General Hua. Today's failure is the basis for you to become stronger tomorrow. Don't paralyze yourself with false names. When you are complacent in those false names, maybe others have surpassed you. Only hard work is the right way, and only an open-hearted acceptance of failure. Only by working hard will you become stronger!" Jia Rong continued to persuade.
Looking at Hua Xiong's gradually clear eyes, Jia Rong said, "Although the general is defeated and loses his face, no one will look down on the person who has the courage to admit defeat, but will only laugh at the person who is depressed because of a failure."
After listening to Jia Rong's words, Hua Xiong thought for a long time, and then knelt down in front of Jia Rong and said, "Thank you, General, Hua understands!"
Jia Rong hurriedly helped Hua Xiong up and said, "The general must not do this in the future. If the villain sees it, it will definitely be unfavorable to you and me in front of Dong Gong."
Hua Xiong seemed to have regained his previous self-confidence. He picked up the wine in the glass and drank it all and said, "Who dares to say anything? Even in front of General Dong, I am the same. Isn't Hua Xiong the kind of ungrateful person? The kindness between the general and me, Hua will never forget it in his life."
Jia Rong continued to persuade, "General, that's not what I mean. It's better to be careful in everything in the army. It's definitely not good to hold the handle for others."
Hua Xiong also felt that his behavior just now was indeed a little extreme. Generally, only his subordinates worshipped his superiors, but just now he did feel it and couldn't help kneeling down to Jia Rong. This is a way to convince him from the bottom of his heart, and he didn't feel it in front of Dong Zhuo.
Jia Rong and Hua Xiong drank for a long time. It was not until late at night that Jia Rong staggered back to his camp.
Lying on ** and thinking about today's events, Jia Rong found that if he let himself command the general, a thousand people are enough to kill the ten thousand enemies. The reason why there are tens of thousands of generals is that the soldiers are unwilling to move forward with their lives on the battlefield, worried about the safety of life, and see the general rushing to kill. They retreated one after another to achieve the reputation of those generals.
Especially those yellow scarf soldiers, it's too late to avoid when they see the army killing. How can they return to meet the enemy? This situation has also created those generals with tens of thousands of enemies. However, Jia Rong does not deny that there are indeed the kind of tough generals who can fight against one hundred and bravely on the battlefield.
Having figured this out, Jia Rong is much more at ease. Although his ability to kill on the battlefield is not good, he can train a soldier who is willing to move forward with his life on the battlefield, and can level the gap between them and capture them alive. However, even so, he can't slack off. His own strength is the most important thing. Of.
The next day, all the soldiers of the Xiliang army found a very strange thing, that is, Hua Xiong has changed. He no longer drilled into the camp and can't come out. Instead, he walks in the army as usual and competes with other generals in martial arts. There is no decadent after the defeat, and there is no previous arrogance and hard practice. Martial arts, even when training soldiers, did not beat and scold like before. Jia Rong told him when he was drinking with him yesterday that you should treat soldiers like your own brothers. You treat soldiers as brothers, and soldiers also treat you as respectable generals, so that you can work harder on the battlefield. .
In the account of the Chinese army, Dong Zhuo stopped Jia Rong, who was about to salute, and said, "I heard that the soldiers trained by Zhiyuan were very strong and defeated Hua Xiong yesterday. I don't know if this is true?"
Jia Rong replied truthfully, "General Qi, yesterday I just lucked to win a move of General Hua. It's not true."
Dong Zhuo laughed and said, "Hua Xiong is the first brave general of my Xiliang Army. It is not easy for Zhiyuan's soldiers to defeat him. I just hope that Zhiyuan can tell me the method of military training. If the infantry of our Xiliang Army can be like the soldiers trained by comrades, wouldn't it be easy to defeat the yellow scarf thieves?"
Jia Rong arched his hand and replied, "General, the method of infantry training is extremely time-consuming, and the equipment of a soldier can be compared with the usual ten soldiers. The idea of implementation in the army is difficult to realize. I hope the general will think twice."
Dong Zhuo thought for a while and said, "In this case, Zhiyuan will train your soldiers well. If you need anything, please feel free to mention it."
Jia Rong thanked him with great joy.
However, Jia Rong was not ignorant and said, "After returning to the inferior position, I will definitely write down the detailed method of training soldiers and submit it to the general. I hope that the general can improve the method of training the inferior position."
Dong Zhuo is also a smart person. How could he not understand the meaning of Jia Rong's words? He laughed and said, "Zhiyuan is really my sage general. I have the ambition to help, and the day to break the yellow scarf is not far away."
Dong Zhuo motioned Jia Rong to sit down and said, "Now more than two months have passed, and the yellow scarf soldier still hasn't made any movement. I don't know what Zhiyuan has a good plan?"
"It's better to be quiet than to move. Now our army's strength is far weaker than the yellow scarf. It has committed a military taboo to besiege the anti-thief in Guangzong. Don't move. Today, the yellow scarf is not good at all the battlefields. What our army has to do is to wait for the yellow scarf soldiers to mess up their feet, and then defeat them in one stroke." Jia Rong persuaded.
Dong Zhuo sighed and said, "Wen You (Li Ru) sent the news that the court was very dissatisfied with the delay in fighting with the Xiliang army. If it hadn't been for Wen You in Luyang, I'm afraid the court would have been guilty."
There is no good way to see Jia Rong. What's more, what Jia Rong just said was also reasonable. Dong Zhuo had no choice but to wave his hand to let Jia Rong go back.
After returning to the army, Jia Rong immediately summoned all the generals for discussion. After more than a month of repeated investigation, all the personnel of the cavalry governor and the department governor had already been settled.
After the generals of various parts came together, Jia Rong said, "Recently, I have been busy training in the camp, and I seldom ask much about the affairs of various departments, but I am very clear about your efforts. I reiterate again that if you have merit, you will be rewarded, and if you will be punished, what you have to do is to train soldiers as hard as you can."
The generals all claim to be yes.
"From tomorrow, I will check the training situation of each department from time to time. If any soldier's training is really unsatisfactory, it will be useless for anyone to plead for mercy." Jia Rong said seriously.
Looking at the engrossed generals, Jia Rong said, "Also, tell your deputy generals to pay attention to the views of the soldiers in the army and their opinions on the army. As soon as you find any problems, report them in time and solve them in time. The problem of the soldiers is the most important problem, understand?"
The generals replied in a low voice, "I understand!"
In fact, after hearing Jia Rong's order, the generals were also very moved. These generals were basically promoted from grassroots soldiers. They understood the difficulties of being soldiers, and it was better under Jia Rong's account. In the past, under the accounts of other generals, those commanders and commanders often beat and scolded themselves. There is no way to ask for the opinions of soldiers.
After the specific training matters of each department were completed, Jia Rong kept Jiang Yu.
Jia Rong has always kept in mind Jiang Yu's contribution to the army. Since Jiang Yu surrendered to himself, he has been working hard to train cavalry all the time.
Jia Rong motioned Jiang Yu to come closer and said, "I don't know how the cavalry Brother Jiang has trained recently?"
Jiang Yu held his fist and replied, "General, the training of cavalry is completely in accordance with the method of training cavalry by the Qiang people and the suggestions put out by General Guo. All the soldiers have been able to go to the battlefield and are waiting for the war."
Jia Rong nodded and said, "Now there are five hundred cavalrymen. Although it is not as good as your previous commander, I believe that your official position will be bigger in the near future."
Jiang Yu knelt down and said, "I never want to be promoted. I just want to follow the general all my life."
Jia Rong hurriedly helped Jiang Yu up and sighed for a moment. It was really an honor for him to have such a loyal and righteous person to accompany him.
"Jiang Yu, you don't have to be so polite in private in the future. You and I are like brothers. Why do you care about those false gifts?" Jia Rong persuaded Jiang Yu again.
