The casual life of the flat space
Chapter 229 I can’t figure it out
Seeing Mu Qingqiu nod, Bai Tieying continued: "Of course, I won't do this without your approval, because General Zhao will not agree to hand over more than 3,000 people or even more to me to deal with.
Well, I’ll save the rest for later, now it’s your turn to express your opinion!”
Although Mu Qingqiu was still wondering what the "Holy Mother" Bai Tieying was talking about was? Was it her Buddhist name? He had also heard of "possession", but why did she let Bai Qianjiao possess her? Was this the reason why she kept Bai Qianjiao? But Mu Qingqiu also understood that Bai Tieying just wanted to help those soldiers and had no intention of rebelling...
Thinking of this, Mu Qingqiu thought of the "Seventeenth Emperor" of his family and felt that an emperor who made elixirs every day and sought immortality seemed... Oh, no, no, no, it was too rebellious!
However, not wanting to put his head on the belt does not mean that he cannot help those soldiers! Not to mention how many tricks those other "eighteenth generations of emperors" have done, he himself can also have his own guards openly!
Thinking of this, Mu Qingqiu made up his mind and said, "Tie Ying, my thoughts were a little confused just now. Just like you said, let's talk about it later.
I don't have a title now, so there's not much I can do. But the prince can have 36 personal officials, so if something happens, I can use this title."
"So, you support it?"
Mu Qingqiu looked at Bai Tieying and nodded. Although he didn't know why he supported Bai Tieying, he didn't know where the idea came from that made him believe in Bai Tieying... Or maybe he just didn't want to see the light in Bai Tieying's eyes go out?
Not long after the two of them came out of the space, a soldier came to serve tea. After the soldier left, General Zhao also came back.
"Uncle Zhao, what I discussed with Brother Mu just now is that we want to accept those soldiers in our army who should retire but have nowhere to go." Bai Tieying was afraid of scaring General Zhao, so he spoke slowly.
"What? You..." General Zhao was shocked. He never expected that these two people would be so bold. But he couldn't say anything to Mu Qingqiu. Moreover, based on his experience, this must have been Bai Tieying's idea. So he suppressed his anger and said to Bai Tieying:
"Tieying, let's not talk about whether this is feasible or not. Just say, do you know how much trouble this will bring to Qiu Ge'er? It is true that they are disabled, sick and old, but they are all soldiers. Once they are used to attack, Qiu Ge'er's identity will not be able to protect him, but will become the most powerful evidence of his ulterior motives!"
General Zhao blushed as he spoke, but Bai Tieying had expected such a reaction. If he didn't react, Bai Tieying would be scared. So Bai Tieying stepped forward, handed over the teacup, and explained with a smile:
"Uncle Zhao, if you can think about Brother Mu like this, then I am even more certain that my decision is right. I know you will have a lot of questions and concerns, so please calm down and listen to me slowly, okay?"
Seeing that General Zhao was silent, Bai Tieying said slowly: "Uncle Zhao, I did this for three reasons:
First, given your relationship with Brother Mu, I am willing to believe you and help you. It doesn’t matter whether you believe me or not, as long as Brother Mu believes me, that’s enough;
Secondly, I will not harm Brother Mu, so I will arrange these soldiers well and have the ability to prevent anyone from catching me. As for if there are one or two people with bad intentions, I don't think Uncle Zhao will arrange for them to retire and come to me;
Thirdly, actually the above two points are not important. This is what I, Bai Tieying, want to do, and I firmly believe that I can do it well.
General Zhao, I really don't mean to offend you, but I want to ask, as a commander, do you really love your soldiers like your own sons?"
"Tieying!" Mu Qingqiu interrupted Bai Tieying anxiously, but he didn't know what to say, so he could only give her a pleading look, asking her to speak more tactfully. General Zhao called her "uncle" and "niece", but it didn't mean that she could stroke the tiger's beard.
General Zhao was so angry when he heard this that he laughed. He picked up the teacup, took a sip and said, "My dear niece, you may have offended me without intending to, but I am still willing to give Qiu Ge a favor and hear if you are exaggerating."
"Uncle Zhao is so generous!" Bai Tieying first gave him a small sweet date, and then said: "What I asked you just now was actually to say that you are 'blind to the situation'. I hope you can forgive me for my inappropriate words.
I was heartbroken when I heard you talk about the current situation of those soldiers, so I made this decision. But I definitely didn't make this promise casually, but I was sure that I had the ability to do it.
You naturally took very good care of these soldiers who had nowhere to go and were homeless, but this was a little unfair to those soldiers who still had fighting ability.
Shouldn't they have more money and food to spend on their food and armor when they go to the battlefield to kill the enemy? Shouldn't they have more comrades to fight shoulder to shoulder with them? Shouldn't they be able to see what they will look like when they grow old at a glance?
This has a subtle impact on the morale of the troops. You must hope that you can lead only tigers and wolves, right?"
General Zhao's expression did not ease after hearing this, but became even more gloomy. Bai Tieying continued:
Uncle Zhao, you must know much more clearly than I do the impact of the age composition of the sergeants in an army on its combat effectiveness. And you must also be deeply aware of the impact of these sergeants who should be retired on the initiative, flexibility and planning of the army.
If you were powerless before, now is the fork in the road for you to make a new choice. Do you want to maintain the status quo which is becoming increasingly difficult, or are you willing to seize this turning point and give your army, and these soldiers who should be enjoying their retirement, a chance.
But if I just say that I can arrange and take good care of them, not only you will not believe it, but the sergeants will not believe it either. Do you think this will work? First, I will persuade the sergeants who are willing to follow my arrangements, and they will not be considered retired yet.
We will set a deadline of three months. If those sergeants are unwilling to accept my arrangement and retire from the army after the expiration, it can only be said that my ideas and practices are inappropriate and I cannot share your worries. I am willing to give all my 20% shares in the food factory to these sergeants to add one or two meals.
In this way, you won't actually suffer any loss, and no one will criticize you in the short term. But if they are willing to come forward after the expiration date to prove that my arrangement is appropriate, you can arrange for them to retire from the army in batches. Do you think this is okay?"
General Zhao didn't answer for a long time. It wasn't that he didn't know what to do - he was a general of a department, and the thing he had the most was decisiveness - but he couldn't understand why Bai Tieying was so confident that she could arrange this matter.
