Vow to die at the end of Ming Dynasty

Chapter 320 Three Years War (Fifteen)
After Chen Wu, Wei Lianxi, Ye Shenghuang, and Ye Shengming came in, they immediately raised their chests and raised their hands in salute, saying, "Your subordinates have seen the battalion commander!"

Ye Su nodded his head in return, and then he spoke.

"Comrades, sit down first, let's have a meeting."

After hearing Ye Su's order, everyone present took their seats.The people in the room were seated in order of ranking, and Wang Huakang sat beside Ye Su.

In the past few years, although Ye Su has been greedy for enjoyment, he has firmly controlled the army.In particular, the several major purges in the army made the officers and soldiers feel extremely awed by him.The senior military officers present here were all promoted after several purges, so they respected Ye Su and did not dare to overstep.

But now it's different, the enemy's army is overwhelming, and when the Sixth Battalion lives and dies, they have their own voice.

"Comrades, the remaining 20 troops of the Great Western Army are about to go north. Our army has less than [-] troops. The situation is grim! I want to hear your opinions." Ye Su said at the beginning.

Wang Huakang had already expressed his opinion before, and Ye Su called everyone here mainly to hear the opinions of the captains below, so Wang Huakang did not speak, but glanced at Chen Wu.

Although the big guy has his own ideas, the majesty established by Ye Su on weekdays is still very daunting.For a moment, no one dared to speak up.But when Wang Huakang glanced at Chen Wu and signaled Chen Wu to speak, Chen Wu hesitated for a while and had to speak.

"Battalion Commander, all the officers and soldiers below us demand a good fight with the enemy. Although there are 20 enemies, we are not vegetarians. The security regiment's great reputation is not something we boast about."

After finishing speaking, Chen Wu felt a little uneasy.

Ye Su noticed Wang Huakang's little trick, and he felt a little unhappy.Is it useless to speak by yourself, and the subordinates still have to act according to the color of the trainer?But the enemy is now, such trivial matters are ignored for the time being.

After listening to Chen Wu's words, Ye Su looked at Wei Lianxi, Ye Shenghuang, and Ye Shengming again.Especially Ye Shenghuang and Ye Shengming, looking at the two, Ye Su's eyes were full of deep meaning.

Wei Lianxi, Ye Shenghuang, and Ye Shengming said boldly as Ye Su stared at them.

"Battalion Commander, the soldiers have a strong desire to fight, and their morale can't be discouraged."

"Battalion Commander, let's fight. We were able to eliminate Liu Wenxiu back then, and this time we can also defeat Sun Kewang and Li Dingguo."

"Battalion Commander, the Great Western Army has bullied people too much and invaded our territory. This time, they just happened to defeat them and drive them out of the province, all in Sichuan."

The subordinates unanimously demanded to fight the enemy to the end, Ye Su frowned slightly, he said.

"Comrades, the current situation is very bad for us. The headquarters is besieged by the enemy, and there are also enemies in Sichuan. It is really not easy for our sixth battalion to establish a foundation. What should we do if we lose the battle? Or..."

Hearing this, Wang Huakang on the side suddenly became anxious.He didn't expect that Ye Su was still thinking about his own strength and the matter of transferring at this time.Although the desire to preserve strength is not wrong, it's just that the battalion commander doesn't think about defending against the enemy, and doesn't consider the significance of Sichuan to the entire security team. Instead, he cares about trying to escape.After all, even if the army is defeated, the battalion commander only loses the territory, but the soldiers who fought generously lost their lives.If the superiors don't care about the country, why should the inferiors protect it?
But Wang Huakang had to persuade Ye Su, because Sichuan was not only Ye Su's territory, but also the home of the soldiers of the Sixth Battalion.At this moment, the soldiers were not fighting for Ye Su, but for themselves and their families.

"Battalion commander. There are 60 troops under our battalion, and this is our homeland. When the enemy comes, he must fight to the death. If he flees without fighting, what will the villagers think of us, and what will the soldiers think of us? "Wang Huakang stood up all of a sudden, blushing when he spoke anxiously.

In fact, Ye Su's mentality was also swaying from side to side, rationally telling him that the enemy was too strong, and the Sixth Battalion might not be able to resist this time.But ideally, he didn't want to give up his territory.In his own territory, he is the boss who dominates.But to go to another place, everything has to start again, everything has unknowns and uncertainties.Even though the head of the regiment described how rich the country south of Tibet was, how weak the army there was.But this is just what the team leader said, after all, he has never seen it with his own eyes.If it was as desolate as Mobei, if their army was very strong, wouldn't he be delivering food in the past?

Ye Su hesitated at this moment.Many years ago, he was a decisive and persistent hero.But Wen Xiangrunyu sips and enjoys a lot, his will has been worn down, his pride has been subsided, he just wants to enjoy his current luxurious life.Living in this world is like a dream, so enjoy yourself today so that you can live up to the world.

But now Ye Su's power and Ye Su's glory and wealth are all based on the loyalty of his followers.In a certain sense, Ye Su was also bound by the will of the soldiers.

While Ye Su was hesitating, Wang Huakang, Chen Wu, Wei Lianxi, Ye Shenghuang, and Ye Shengming looked at Ye Su with piercing eyes, waiting for Ye Su to issue a combat order.

Fighting on the battlefield is the supreme glory of a soldier, but running away is the greatest shame of a soldier.No matter how grand the transfer is, running away is running away.Wang Huakang and others are pure soldiers and they don't want to escape.They would rather die in battle than give up this base.So their thinking is different from Ye Su.Strictly speaking, Ye Su was no longer a soldier, but a politician.In the eyes of politicians, as long as they can achieve their goals, there is nothing that cannot be abandoned.

Although the military is the means on weekdays, politics is the goal, and politics dominates the military.But at this moment, Ye Su felt that he was dominated by the military.But in fact, this is because Ye Su ignored the interests of the people and the interests of the soldiers.It was in Ye Su's interest to turn west, because with an army of tens of thousands, he could conquer one side wherever he went, and continue to enjoy the glory and wealth.But this also means that the soldiers have to abandon their families and stay away from their homes.After all, the roads are difficult and dangerous, and it is very impractical to migrate with hundreds of thousands of people. You can only bring elite troops and some family members.At this moment, Ye Su ignored that, in fact, the leaders of each column united in the main battle, which was also a political statement.

In the end, Ye Su still made a fighting stance.Under his orders, people from all over the country under the Sixth Battalion mobilized. The agricultural guards, joint defense teams, and main battle troops finally gathered 12 troops, which was the largest force mobilized by the Sixth Battalion.

Facing the menacing 20 troops from the rest of the Western Army, the Sixth Battalion fought to the death to protect their homeland!
