"Pfft!" Jun Moxie was drinking a mouthful of wine when he heard those words. He choked and sprayed a drop of wine onto the Third Uncle, Jun Wuyi, causing him to cough even more violently.
"Wahaha … That old bastard Li Shang has overreached himself. Not only has his Dantian recovered, but his meridians have also been greatly damaged. He's on the verge of death. Even his most beloved grandson, Li You Ran, has been affected." Grandpa Jun hadn't laughed so heartily for many years. "I heard that the pretty boy's face was directly disfigured, wa ha ha …"
Jun Mo Xie held the wine cup in his hand. He was flabbergasted.
I, I, I originally only wanted to cause a little damage, in all honesty, at that time, I really did not expect such a glorious result. I only wanted to destroy the Jade Coral, I really had no other intentions …
As for the Grand Preceptor Li Shang being seriously injured and Li Youran being disfigured, I really did not think about it! I am very innocent, although I wanted to be a little worse … at that time, I actually waved my hand casually to create such a good situation, the gods make fools of people …
"Just for this matter! Today, we must get drunk! "Grandpa Jun laughed heartily and raised his glass of wine.
"En, this matter is indeed frightening, but father, if the Grand Preceptor Li Shang is really unable to cure him and dies. We also need to be careful of the Li Family's movements. Li Shang's Blood God Guards could be said to have shaken the world for a period of time. No one dared to look down on them, and they are incomparably loyal to Li Shang. If Li Shang really dies, these people will definitely vent their anger. But if they want to vent their anger, their first target will be our Jun Family! We have to be on guard against this! So, we need to make some preparations in advance, "Jun Wu Yi smiled. He then calmed his mind and spoke slowly.
"That's right." Grandpa Jun put down his glass of wine. "If that old man really dies, although the Li Family will not be able to return to its former glory, the backlash from those men of sacrifice will also be a headache. Even if he didn't die, this would definitely be the reason for chaos. Wu Yi, most of the Jun Family's strength is now in your hands. So, how do you think we should handle this matter? "
Jun Wuyi furrowed his brows and said, "If we're talking about adapting to the situation, we still have to consider Grand Preceptor Li's final life and death as the prerequisite. If he survives this, all the arrangements will be wasted. The best countermeasure is to deal with the myriad of changes by not changing. Gathering the core strength together and not giving the opponent a chance to break us down one by one is the best strategy. I believe that our Jun Family's strength can ensure their safety. I'm only worried about General Shen and the others. They've been following us all these years. So, it can be said that their hatred with the Li Family isn't deep. So, if something were to happen to them, then they might encounter some misfortune! "
Jun Moxie smiled, "Third Uncle's words are certainly wise words, but you are worrying too much. Any one of these generals was an iron-blooded warrior who had survived hundreds of battles! His sensitivity to danger was definitely deeper than anyone else's! Otherwise, wouldn't they have already died in battle? As long as they receive this news, their first reaction will be to respond to it and ensure their own safety. If they can't even protect their own safety, then how can they go into battle and kill the enemy? "
Jun Moxie smiled as he said this. Then, he raised his eyebrows and said ruthlessly, "If they don't even have this ability, and we still need to send people to protect them when things come to a head, then what's the use of such trash? What's the point of abandoning them? What's the point of hurting them?! "
Jun Zhan Tian and Jun Wuyi were stunned at the same time. They looked at each other in dismay, not knowing how to react. These two men were commanders who had fought hundreds of battles in the army. It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that they loved their soldiers like their own children. They treated the soldiers under them like brothers and nephews. So, they naturally disapproved of Jun Moxie's incomparably ruthless words.
"Mo Xie, you can't say things like that. These people have followed our Jun Family for many years. How can we abandon them? " Jun Zhan Tian was a little angry. He stroked his beard and said in a displeased manner, "This is the basic integrity of a person. We share weal and woe, and never abandon each other in life or death! Your way of thinking is too … "Grandpa Jun didn't finish his sentence, but the criticism in his words was very obvious.
"Grandpa, Mo Xie doesn't agree with your words. Let me ask you something. If you only care about these incompetent people and cause the death of countless soldiers, then you should understand the pros and cons of this matter, right? The border has been unstable these past few years, and there have been battles all year round. And those people that Third Uncle mentioned before are all veteran generals in the army. It's inevitable that they will lead their troops to face the enemy. And if a general is incompetent, then thousands of soldiers will die! For me, if a person is really incompetent, then it's better to simply give up. Otherwise, if they are entrusted with heavy responsibilities, then the overall situation is bound to be ruined! At certain critical moments, it might even shake the foundation of the country! How can this be a trivial matter? This is a matter of great right and wrong. How can it be that we are heartless? "
Jun Moxie boldly retorted, "I just mentioned that if a general is incompetent, then thousands of soldiers will die from exhaustion, and the position will be lost. If it's serious, then the enemy will break through, and the entire army will be routed! Even the foundation of the country will be shaken, and the country will be destroyed. This is definitely not alarmist talk. Grandpa and Third Uncle also understand this truth. At critical moments, we must make a painful decision. Otherwise, we will have to pay an unbearable price. When that time comes, it will be too late for regrets!
"Use people who are virtuous; use generals who are resourceful! This is not something that we should be emotional about. We must be responsible for the majority of the people! If as a leader, you still have to be emotional, then I can only say that you are unqualified! If Mo Xie's words have offended you in any way, then I ask Grandpa and Third Uncle to forgive me. However, this is a matter of principle. Please forgive Mo Xie for not being able to give in! "
Jun Zhan Tian and Jun Wu Yi remained silent at the same time. They were both intelligent people, and even though they felt that these words weren't very pleasant to hear, but they couldn't refute the fact that these words were true. As a qualified leader, being merciful and soft-hearted was the biggest taboo!
Although they acknowledged that Jun Mo Xie's words were reasonable, with their characters, they would never do something like that, and would never do it. This was also why they were respectable. Although they were pedantic, they were adorable and admirable!
Perhaps, this was also the embodiment of human nature!
Jun Moxie chuckled and said, "Naturally, this is still our conjecture. As for the final result, it is still a different matter. I just want to remind Grandpa and Third Uncle in advance. When the time comes to give up, you must be decisive! If you are indecisive, you will be in trouble. Third Uncle taught us about the helplessness of the aristocratic families. Today's actions and the decision we make in the future are also the helplessness of the aristocratic families! "
Jun Zhan Tian and Jun Wuyi looked at each other. They were surprised and shocked by Jun Moxie's ruthlessness today. Jun Wuyi frowned as he pondered. He could not help but think of Jun Moxie's fatal moves. His heart shivered. As the second generation of the Jun Family, he undoubtedly understood his nephew's position. However, it was difficult for a soldier to give up his comrade-in-arms. It was just as Jun Moxie had said — helplessness!
Grandpa Jun stroked his beard and narrowed his eyes as he thought to himself. I can see through Jun Moxie's character. Although he is somewhat ruthless, he is someone who can wield power. However, he should not be too ambitious. Otherwise, the sky will be filled with blood! Is it a blessing? Is it a calamity? Grandpa Jun was a little worried and could not help but sigh.
The old man came from a poor background and was not a true descendant of an aristocratic family. It could be said that he had fought his way to where he was today, step by step. Therefore, he was very kind to the soldiers under him, especially those generals who had climbed up from the bottom. He valued them even more.
However, Old Man Jun had sixty years of experience. He had undergone the baptism of political struggles. He was no longer the hot-blooded and courageous man of the past. Moreover, he had lost his son and grandson. Therefore, he had gained a deeper understanding of the ways of the world. Therefore, Jun Mo Xie's words were more acceptable to him than Jun Wu Yi's. In fact, he even appreciated his only grandson's foresight!
Jun Wuyi turned his head and spoke to Old Pang. "Uncle Pang, I will have to trouble you to make arrangements for this matter. No matter what, safety is the most important. "
Although Old Pang was nominally the steward of the Jun Residence and was considered a servant, but in reality, everyone knew that Old Pang and Jun Zhan Tian were true friends of life and death! Jun Zhan Tian had never treated Old Pang as a servant. He only treated him as his own brother.
In the past, Jun Zhan Tian had wanted to remove his old brother's status as a servant. Then, he would be rewarded with military merits. Then, he would be bestowed the title of a wife and son. However, Old Pang was sincere about his elder brother. He understood that once he removed his status as a servant, he would no longer be able to accompany his elder brother. Moreover, he would no longer be able to contribute to his elder brother. Therefore, he refused to remove his status as a steward.
Therefore, Jun Wuyi had always regarded Old Pang as his elder. Therefore, he was very respectful towards him.
Old Pang smiled and nodded. Then, he got up and walked out.
Jun Mo Xie couldn't help but shake his head. Although the Jun Family's people were heroic and upright, but they were too sentimental and righteous. Being sentimental and righteous was a great advantage. However, as an aristocratic family, it involved the politics of the kingdom. Blindly being sentimental and righteous was not appropriate.
However, Jun Moxie did not expect his words to be immediately accepted by Old Man Jun and the Third Uncle. It was just a temporary reminder. In case of a critical moment, it might be of great use. With the character of this father and son, it would take at least eight to ten years of subtle influence to change them. Not to mention that Jun Dashao did not have the patience to do so. Even if he did, he did not have that much time to waste!
This kind of thing cannot be rushed. Let's take it slowly.
Suddenly, a sonorous voice rang out. "Brother Wu Yi, it's been ten years. How have you been?!" The voice was powerful and reverberated in the clear sky under the setting sun.
Jun Wu Yi's complexion changed, and his face turned white in an instant. His lips trembled slightly, and he almost jumped out of his wheelchair!
