"Loose?" Jin Wushu's face showed a hint of sarcasm, like those generals, but also seemed to be asking himself: "Do you all think that such conditions can be considered loose and fair for us?"

Alida frowned, but still answered without hesitation: "Yes!"

He paused for a while, then continued: "Marshal, under the current situation, we are trapped, and we can't even find our way out, just like a group of wild wolves that have been introduced into the snow trap. Song Jun didn't know where they were lying in ambush. They were hunters who waited for work. They were waiting, waiting for us to lack food and clothing, waiting for our hearts to fall apart, and even waiting for us to give up all our dignity and beg for mercy. , Marshal, now the time is on the Song Army and the others. It is us who can't afford to wait. What they want now is only two-thirds of the ordnance and war horses. In another ten days and twenty, we have to keep it. It may be two-thirds of the Erlang, Marshal, Alida is not afraid of death, but the Deputy Marshal was right just now, and there is a Daikin guarded by our guard, Marshal!"

He has been following Jin Wushu for many years, speaking straightforwardly, and tears are everywhere. For a while, all the generals in the tent felt the same, and bowed their heads.

No one would doubt Alida's bravery. When he was less than seven years old, a lone wolf wanted to steal the only lamb in his family. Alida used his bare hands to bite with bare hands. It was so hard. Born to scare the wolf away, just because he believed in his heart that this lamb was used to exchange medicine money for his father’s medical treatment. It was his father’s life. Even if he died, he couldn’t let this lamb be taken by the wolf. go with.

After growing up, after following Jin Wushu's battle, Alida has been charging all the way. No matter how difficult the environment is, he has never hesitated or retreated. Originally, Jin Wushu said he was an accountant. The bravest general under the command is not a word of praise, but is recognized by the generals sitting here.

Therefore, everyone here, even Jin Wushu, understands that Alida is not greedy for life and fear of death, what he said is true and true from the bottom of his heart.

Although these generals may not be as clear as Jin Wushu or Zhao Kuangyin, the Jurchen cavalry in front of them is related to the safety of the Jurchen Kingdom, but they all almost intuitively understand the roughest truth. If these The most brave Erlang of the Jurchen tribe was ruined here, so who would have to rely on to protect Daikin.

They used to be the pride of the Great Golden State, and they once placed the hope of the entire Jurchen tribe, so no one of them dared to imagine that if this Jurchen iron ride disappears, what will the Great Golden State do? What should the Jurchen do

As for the ordnance war horse, that's another story.

When the Jurchens started from Baishan and Heishuijian, there were no serious warriors in battle, and there were not many serious war horses that had been trained and put on battle armor. As a result, they were still rampant in the world, and no one could do it

Jin Wushu may not understand how severe the current situation is, because there are so many things they dare not say to Jin Wushu.

After all, over the years, Jin Wushu’s thoughts have mostly been placed on state affairs and state affairs, and he has relatively little time to manage the army. Most of the things in this Jurchen cavalry are managed by these generals separately, so Jin Wu Shu's heart may have regarded this army as the indomitable Jurchen cavalry back then, but in the hearts of these generals, they all understood that today is different from the past, and the current Jurchen army is no longer in the past.

This is not that there is a problem with their control and training, but that the origins of these soldiers have been different.

When the original Jurchen first came from the White Mountains and Black Waters, everyone was poor and white. Everyone was fighting with their heads on their heads. Whoever is more brave and who has more enemy heads in his hair than others, then he can get everyone's money. Respect, then he can be promoted.

But now

This Jurchen cavalry was established as the foundation for the rule of the Jurchens, so the main force in the army requires that the children of the Jurchens should be filled. According to the practice of the Jurchens, all males are half hunters and half farmers, so these The Jurchen sergeant was recruited from almost all Jurchen families, and it is precisely because of this that this Jurchen cavalry can have such a large scale as it is now.

However, it is different from the time when the Jurchen people lived on safari in the white mountains and black waters. Now it has been more than 20 years since the foundation of Dajin and the nation. Those Jurchen people are no longer equal and are as close as family members. There are poor households, nobles, high-ranking officials, and imperial relatives. Therefore, after several rotations of these generals, they also found helplessly that the original Jinwu Shushu promoted in the army should have been effective. The set of, but now it does not work, there are always many irresistible forces, there are always many irresistible people and things, to force them to slowly change the rules of the army.

They have also asked Jin Wushu to tell about these things, and Jin Wushu has personally asked several times, but every time it seems that the matter has been resolved under the pressure of Jin Wushu, it is always wildfire. Endless, only when Jin Wushu's attention shifts slightly, these things will always make a comeback, even better.

Once they came and went, they would no longer bother with Jin Wushu, and they would slowly accept such a reality.

After all, every time they see this old man, no matter how dangerous the soldiers are in the past, they talk and laugh freely, and the energetic commander's quick white sideburns always feel sour in their hearts. Can't bear to add a few more wrinkles to the handsome face.

Indeed, now the Jurchens have established a nation, and now the Jurchens are the people who dominate the other races. Now the Jurchens themselves have been divided into three, six or nine classes. It is impossible to have such a branch as before. In the army, everyone can be like a brother, and everyone can work hard for the lives and future of everyone.

If time goes back twenty years, and if the army that is now guarding the tents is the army they had twenty years ago, then they will probably think like Jin Wushu, and they will also want to be vigorous with the Song people. Fight hard.

However, they understand better than Jin Wushu.

Not!

Those things existed twenty years ago, but they did not exist in front of them.

You can't use the Jurchen army in front of you as it was 20 years ago.

Given the current quality of this Jurchen army, there is no hope of rushing out, and it can't even hold on for much longer.

The snow sinking that Alida mentioned just now is a way of hunting wolves often used by experienced hunters in the Jurchen tribe.

Wolves are cunning, come and go like the wind, and when they act, they come in groups and are the most difficult to catch.

Experienced hunters often don’t fight head-on with wolves, but they dig sinkholes in the soft snow and bury the dead bodies of pigs and sheep in the sinkholes. The hungry wolves who have nowhere to forage in winter, After digging these things that can be eaten in the snow, they will inevitably work together and continue to dig until the pit that has been dug out has been dug out, and it is sunk in.

And those wolves can't climb up in the pit, have nothing to eat, but in the end they will split up and kill each other, just so that the hunters can take advantage of it without any effort.

Alida’s metaphor is not unreasonable. In these days, among the lower sergeants of this army of Jurchen, there is already a shortage of food and clothing. Although there has not been a phenomenon of ecstasy, but only Fear is only a matter of time.

Ten thousand steps back and said, even if you can't make that step temporarily, at least many of the lower-level sergeants have already had the intention of surrendering. If it weren't for the infestation of the Song army, they didn't know where the camp was standing. I'm afraid there are already many Jurchen sergeants at this time, who fled in batches to surrender.

At this time, Alida broke the words, and the generals became calm and looked up at Jin Wushu, waiting for him to speak.

Jin Wushu sighed softly and looked at Ali Da, but he asked, "Alida, I remember that when you were seven years old, you once drove a wolf away!"

Alida was taken aback, stood up, bowed and replied, "Yes!"

He paused, raised his head, but his face was flushed, and he said: "Alida just said what he wanted to say, not afraid of death. If the commander really decides to fight, Alida is willing The first one to be a vanguard must have a timid move of retreating. The commander used a knife to grab Alida's head.

This incident is the deepest and most proud thing in his life. He heard that Jin Wushu mentioned this thing that best demonstrated his bravery in this situation, but he was turning a corner and condemning him for not You should be afraid of death, so you can't help but get excited for a while.

Jin Wushu laughed blankly and waved to Alida: "Sit! Sit down and say! I didn't mean that."

He watched Alida sit back, looked up at the sky outside the tent, and said, "I'm just thinking, if the wolf bumps into you in the future, how will he react?"
