Chapter 2074 Xiao Siye’s choice
Glancing at Xue Yantuo's soldiers who were kneeling on the ground and begging in pain at the city gate, Fang Jun sighed and shook his head, "Compassion does not control soldiers, justice does not control wealth, love does not establish affairs, kindness does not serve as an official... I am really not a leader." The general’s information. From here to the north, all military affairs will be decided by General Xue.”
Xue Rengui hurriedly said: "Xue Li will obey your order!"
Fang Junle turned his horse's head and went to the rear army to clean up the aftermath.
Out of sight, out of mind...
Xue Rengui is different from Fang Jun. He has not experienced the education of a harmonious society. The border peoples are enemies who invade the national borders, burn, kill and plunder, and will not stop until death. They are not brothers.
The head of the Hu tribe is the best military achievement of every son of the Han family!
Any soldier returning from an expedition will immediately become a hero in the countryside if he can record the rank of owl leader in the merit book of the commander of the army.
The squires will deliver wine, meat, cloth, and silk to your home, and the rich men will ask matchmakers to come to your home to propose marriage to their daughters. Even county officials and subordinates will treat each other with respect and courtesy...
Killing Hu is the innate mission of every son of the Han family.
If we don't kill all the barbarians, how can the Han family be peaceful and happy?
Seeing the unbearable look on Fang Jun's face, Xue Rengui shook his head. Erlang seemed violent, but in fact he was kind-hearted... Since Erlang can't be ruthless, I will be the villain. Even if he kills too much, Qian Tianhe, if he lets go These Xue Yantuo soldiers were eventually recruited to invade the south again in the future. They were all Han people who suffered massacres. Could it be that they were indirectly killed by him?
Xue Rengui looked resolute, rode his horse to the prisoners, and said loudly: "Since you have surrendered, then put down your weapons and obey the Tang army's disposal! Come, count 500 people at a time and escort them to the south of the city for resettlement. Wait until the attack After Yu Dujunshan, bring them back to Datang for disposal! Remember, don’t bring too many people at once, so as not to make the prisoners scream!”
"Here!"
Immediately, soldiers rushed forward like wolves and tigers, gathered 500 people from the captives, and escorted them to the south of the city.
The captives didn't know what their fate would be. They just assumed that as the Tang army general said, they would be brought back to the Tang Dynasty in the future, so they were not afraid.
Who doesn’t know that Monan is warm and has abundant water and grass?
There is nothing wrong with becoming slaves. In Xue Yantuo, they are tribesmen in name, but in fact they are no different from slaves...
*****
Naturally, there are so many prisoners that they cannot be executed all at once. When the prisoners in despair see that they have no way to survive, they will burst out with extremely strong fighting power. The last struggle of tens of thousands of Xueyantuo soldiers on the verge of death is enough to reduce the number to a small amount. The inferior Tang army was overwhelmed.
Execution in batches secretly, then there is no problem at all...
Fang Jun has always suspected that Qin general Bai Qi killed Zhao Jun for 400,000 yuan in one attack. How did he kill him?
Even if there are 400,000 sheep, it would be quite troublesome to kill and bury them, not to mention the elites that Zhao State transferred from northern Xinjiang to the Changping battlefield to fight against the Mobei Xiongnu all year round?
……
The whole Zhao Xincheng was busy.
Xue Rengui led his army to deal with Xue Yantuo's prisoners. Groups of prisoners were taken to the valley south of the city. They were first ordered to dig pits under the frozen soil exploded by gunpowder, and then massacred them. Their bodies were thrown into the pits and buried. After a whole night of this cycle, these prisoners were finally disposed of...
Gao Kan acted as the commander-in-chief of the army. While collecting the captured grain and baggage, he also counted the ammunition storage of Youtun Guards.
Xi Junmai kept a group of soldiers at Fang Junzhi's side. After all, Zhao Xin City had just been captured, and no one knew whether there were still Xue Yantuo's soldiers hidden in the city. If there was a rebellion and Fang Jun was harmed, there was nothing anyone could do. explain.
There is no way to explain it to the emperor, and there is no way to explain it to myself.
In such a chaotic situation, Xiao Siye found that except for a few soldiers, no one could care about him for a while...
At night.
In a house, Xiao Siye looked at the sleeping soldiers of Fang Jun who were guarding him. He carefully moved to the window, stretched out his hand to pierce the window paper, and raised one eye to look outside.
The yard was dark, with only a few main rooms in the south lit by candlelight. That was where Fang Jun was working overnight. There were two fully armed soldiers standing on the left and right of the door. There were about a dozen or so people away from him. A distance of ten feet.
what to do?
Xiao Siye was a little confused.
Do you want to stay?
Waiting for Fang Jun to repeat the ancient feats of Huo Qubing, Dou Xianna and others who sealed Lang Juxu and Le Shi Yanran, and then fulfill his promise to intercede for himself in front of the emperor and save himself from death?
He thought about it, but he didn't believe that Fang Jun was such a broad-minded person who repaid evil with kindness.
Escape to Xue Yantuo?
That's even worse.
He had seen with his own eyes the power of Youtun Guard's firearms. Wuchuan Town and Zhao Xincheng were the fortresses and passes heavily guarded by Xue Yantuo. As a result, under the strong attack of Youtun Guard, he could not hold out for even an hour. Unable to hold back, Youtunwei's more than 20,000 soldiers and horses rushed forward as if they were in an uninhabited country. The next step was to whip Xue Yantuo's tent. Can Yinan Khan withstand Youtunwei's attack by the violent wind and rain that cracked mountains and cracked rocks?
Xiao Siye thought it was difficult.
Since Fang Jun dared to go deep into Mobei alone, and under the premise of "falsely conveying the imperial edict", he naturally had the confidence to go straight to Xue Yantuo's tent, defeat Xue Yantuo with a thunderous force, and even march across Mobei, riding on horseback. Dragon City!
Firearms are raging, even if the Yinan Khan has three heads and six arms, he will definitely be defeated!
If he ran to Yi Nan Khan and waited until Fang Jun's army plowed through the caves and destroyed Xue Yantuo's tooth tent, wouldn't he still be a prisoner under his command?
By that time, it is absolutely impossible for me, who is completely useless, to escape Fang Jun’s hands...
Return to Chang'an?
If the Yanmen Pass guard had previously accused An Le of "fake work" and begged Xiao Yu to get forgiveness from the emperor, Fang Jun had framed himself with the charge of "false transmission of imperial edicts", but it was enough to make him die. A hundred times a thousand times...
Xiao Siye sadly discovered that the world was so big that there was no place where he could stand!
It was all wrong. I should not have been so obsessed with it that I wanted to cross the Baidao to join Xue Yantuo. However, I was caught by Fang Jun and boarded his pirate ship...
Go, there is no way to go.
Stay and wait.
what to do?
Xiao Siye was like an ant on a hot pot, anxious and at a loss.
I can't help but secretly regret in my heart. How could I have lost my mind in the first place and decided to go against Fang Jun to resolve the feud? Otherwise, relying on the relationship between in-laws, even if the guard of Yanmen Pass framed him, Fang Jun's words would be enough to settle it. Who would dare to pursue it?
As a result, Fang Jun, the bastard, instead of helping himself, actually added insult to injury and allowed himself to "falsely pass on the imperial edict"...
"Come here!"
A shout came from outside the house, which frightened Xiao Siye's heart. Just as he was about to return to the bed and pretend to be asleep, his eyes suddenly lit up, but an oil lamp was lit. A soldier stood up from the bed and stared at Shang standing there. Xiao Siye in front of the window asked: "What are you doing?"
Xiao Siye was so frightened that his heart shrank into a ball, and he quickly said: "I am feeling anxious and want to relieve myself."
The soldier wondered: "Then why don't you shout something? Do you know that if you go out, others will think you are running away, and they will chop you with a knife."
Xiao Siye's face turned pale: "Um... isn't it cold? After thinking about it, I'd better wait for dawn."
The soldier sneered: "You are really a young man from a noble family, and you are afraid of the cold even when you urinate..."
But in the end, I still believed Xiao Siye's words and didn't ask any more questions.
There was another shout from outside, and the soldier hurriedly got up, opened the door and responded loudly: "Come on, come on!"
He ran out quickly.
Xiao Siye put his heart back in his stomach, and then heard someone outside scolding him: "Are you going to die in your sleep? I shouted twice before I came out. If you miss the commander, I will chop off your head!"
< br>
The soldier quickly apologized: "It's not that I was delayed, it's that Xiao Siye woke up and needed to relieve himself."
The other person cursed and cursed, but did not pursue it after all...
After a long time, the soldier pushed the door back and saw Xiao Siye already lying on the bed. Then he turned around, closed the door and walked towards the bed. Several other people were also awakened and asked: "What are the commander's orders?"
The soldier put an envelope into his arms, took off his shoes and got on the bed, and replied: "The army is running out of firearms and ammunition. I will send a letter to Marshal Xue early tomorrow morning and ask him to quickly escort the ammunition to speed up the journey... What do you think of Marshal Xue?" Yes, so big With the credit in front of him, how could he not be in a hurry? Two days ago, a scout came to report that he was just crossing the Nuozhen River while throwing Youwuwei. It must be at least ten days' journey from here. Isn't this right? It will delay things..."
"Mother! Are you tired of living? That master is not someone to be trifled with. If you gossip about him behind his back, it will be a big deal if word spreads."
"Hey! Aren't there just a few of our brothers here? Are you going to spread the word?"
"You can't say for sure. It depends on whether you can get on the road or not."
"You bastard Hu Laoer, will it be good for you to kill Marshal Xue?"
"That is, if you die, let your brothers help take care of your thin-skinned little lady. Haha, don't worry, your baby brother will also be raised as his own son!"
"Um, fuck you bitch..."
A few people talked and laughed, then turned off the lights and the room became quiet.
The north wind was howling outside the window, and the cold wind came in through the cracks in the doors and windows that were not tight, causing water to drip into the house and turn into ice.
Xiao Siye couldn't feel much cold, but his body was burning like a flame!
He lay motionless on the bed, his eyes widened, his chest heaved violently, and his heart was surging like a tidal wave!
Youtunwei is out of ammunition? (End of chapter)
