"After all, the slaughter of the city hurts the peace of the heavens, and this order should not be given by you." Fang Jianzhang never naively thought that the people of the enemy country were still called the people. For him, the enemy was only entitled to mercy when he surrendered and became a prisoner.

After staying in Beiyan City for so many years, I am used to seeing wars, life and death, and I have seen thousands of people die in Dacheng, and the more that anger accumulates, the more numb I will become to the enemy.

He still remembered the first time he went to the battlefield, and all he could hold in his eyes were those dead corpses, and he was a scholar who went to war for the first time, and he was smoked by the bloody smell of the sky and vomited.

But there is no way, the enemy is coming, and you have to fight. Because you are the soldier who guards this city, and you have the safety and honor of thousands of people behind you. Your failure may lead these people to become prisoners of the other side, to be insulted, to be beaten and scolded. It may also mean that the country is ruined, and the enemy will slowly eat away at the country you live in.

It took him more than half a year and three battles to gradually adapt to this kind of life. On one occasion, they chased a fleeing enemy all the way, and finally the general ordered the slaughter of the city.

If you look at it now, it may not be much more. But at that time, it was undoubtedly earth-shattering and tragic, and even he began to question the general's orders, thinking that these people were innocent, just like Yu Ruyan.

But the general said this to him, and he said: "Do you think they are pitiful, but who will feel sorry for the innocent people who have died so tragically in my great promise?" If these men do not send troops to attack, why should I sacrifice these brothers to fight for their lives? When you make a decision, you have to pay a price, and you too. I, generals, and soldiers. We are all pawns of war, pawns at the mercy of those in power. You think I'm not uncomfortable? Every day and every night, I dream of countless souls who have died tragically to ask for my life, and I dream of countless hands holding my neck and asking me why I want to kill them all! But what can I do? Do you want to watch the people under your rule be slaughtered for the sake of the people of the enemy country? If you can't afford to be ruthless, if you feel that the war is cruel and unbearable, go back there, go back to your court, and hold your book. Saying why don't you teach the first cool words, after writing the excerpt, I handed it over and played my book of indiscriminate killing of innocents, and this general suffered! If you still have to stand on the battlefield. If you want to protect the ordinary people behind you, then put away your sour set, pick up your swords and guns, and chop off a few more enemies' heads on the battlefield. More than anything else! ”

At that time, I was a small soldier. Not at all in the eyes of the general. But his questioning was accidentally heard by the general, but the general patiently said such a paragraph.

There is no right or wrong in war, only victory and defeat, only success and defeat.

He didn't know how to refute it, because he saw the anger and despair, pity and sadness of the people behind him, the pity expressed for the enemy, and the unbearable unbearability for the enemy. It's like a betrayal of the people who trust their own country on which they depend.

Now, he can be as 'cold-blooded' as the general of the past. It is also possible to personally order the slaughter of all the people of a city. As long as he dares to attack the great inheritors, he has no mercy on them.

The same is true of today's Quicksand Country. Therefore, he did not object to Fang Xiaoyu's so-called order to slaughter the country, especially when he saw the tragic death of 50,000 soldiers with his own eyes, he didn't feel how cold-blooded this order was.

Not only him, but also the twenty or so remaining wounded brothers did not think that there was anything wrong with this order. On the contrary, they wished that each other would die, and from then on, there would never be a single person from the Quicksand Country in this world. The reason why they were surprised was not that Fang Xiaoyu gave the order to slaughter the city, but that this order was given by Fang Xiaoyu.

Fang Jianzhang knew very well that such an order was easier said than done, but once he really saw the tragic situation of the slaughter of the city with his own eyes, he would definitely leave a lingering haze in his heart.

When he personally gave the first order to slaughter the city, he finally realized the meaning of what the general had said.

Awakened by nightmares countless times at night, he always felt that he was surrounded by the spirits of people who had died because of his orders. With hideous expressions and a pair of eyes full of hatred and unwillingness, they lingered by his side and became shackles.

Even though he had killed countless enemy soldiers on the battlefield before, and even from a small soldier who was nothing to a new general, after the slaughter of the city, listening to the screams of the other people, he still had a pain that shocked his heart.

So at least, at least such an order should have been uttered by him himself, not by his daughter. He knew that Fang Xiaoyu had never been on the battlefield, so what kind of weight did the word 'slaughtering city' seem to be easy to say had, she might not be able to understand its heaviness.

"What does it matter from whose mouth does the command come from? Dad, I feel the sacrifice of this 50,000-strong army. I can't explain to you why, but believe me, I'm as desperate as you are to avenge them! Blood debts need to be paid with blood, and the country of quicksand is only the first. There are also those traitors in the border city, as well as the Da Zhou who instructed Yiqiē behind his back, and those culprits who are hiding behind the scenes to play chess, I will send them one by one, one by one, to make amends to the 50,000 brothers underground! Fang Xiaoyu overlapped these 50,000 people with the 300,000 people in the past.

If they died on the battlefield, for the sake of their family and country, and for their own blood, she would not blame anyone, not even the enemies who killed them on the battlefield. Because in the war, except for the two people sitting on the dragon chair, all the chess pieces cannot be measured by right or wrong. Your brothers died, and they also had brothers who died on the battlefield. There is no right or wrong for each his own master.

But although they also died at the hands of the enemy, the cause was the betrayal of their own people.

Such a death is an insult to them!

Whether it was the 300,000 army under her command in the past, or the 50,000 army under her father now. They are the same. You can't even look at the same death!

"It's going to be painful." Fang Jianzhang said in a deep voice.

"I know." Fang Xiaoyu replied firmly.

I've experienced that pain. When I was a general. When I had 300,000 brothers under my command.

They walked me through the hardest of years. So I'm not afraid!

Fang Jianzhang suddenly laughed. This is his Fang Jianzhang's daughter, the daughter of the woman who doesn't let her eyebrows!

Although I don't know why she gave the order to slaughter the city. I don't know the reason for her empathy, but her arrival made him see the hope of avenging 50,000 soldiers.

This is his Fang Jianzhang's daughter! It's a continuation of his life! She avenged these 50,000 brothers. It is equivalent to him avenging these 50,000 brothers with his own hands, and there is no difference!

Now he is glad to have such a daughter.

"But there is still wine?" Fang Jianzhang asked Yu Ruyan with a smile, Yu Ruyan shook his head and said, "It's gone." I only brought the jar of wine...... I'll go down the mountain and buy some more, and the general finally laughed, which is something to celebrate. With that, Yu Ruyan immediately trotted away, with a smile on his face.

The so-called fear of Fang Xiaoyu's order to slaughter the city had long been drowned in the joy of General Fang's reinvigoration.

"Miss Yu has left. Dad, you deliberately broke away Miss Yu, but you have something to say to me? Fang Xiaoyu was also happy that his father could regain his strength, so he said with a smile.

Fang Jianzhang sat down on the ground again. patted the ground across from him and motioned for Fang Xiaoyu to sit down as well. Fang Xiaoyu didn't squirm, and he didn't care if the clothes that had just been patted clean would be dirty again, and he sat down with a heroic ass.

The crown prince also seemed to be taken aback by Fang Xiaoyu's order to slaughter the city. But after the shock. But he regained the direction of progress from Fang Jianzhang's cheer up.

Yes. He is the crown prince. He is the prince of the country. He is the future emperor.

He had known all these things before, but he had never known the weight of these titles, these titles, and these rights.

In the past, he fought with Ye Shucheng and fought with other princes, just to keep the identity of the crown prince, because he knew that the family affection in the royal family was weak and he was fighting for the throne. Do whatever it takes. He was originally the crown prince, but if he lost in this battle for the heir. The future can be imagined.

So he fought countless times and fought countless times, just to live in the future and live better, that's all. Even if he talks about working for the well-being of the people, it is just a little charity given on the premise that he is doing well.

But this trip to Beiyan has taught him a lot and experienced more.

He saw with his own eyes the fear of the people of Beiyan when foreign enemies attacked, and the cuteness of preferring to take out his own Kouniang to comfort the army when they ran out of food.

He saw with his own eyes that the veterans who were talking about gags and jokes one by one, went to the battlefield one day and never returned.

He is a prince, and he does not have to suffer as the people. But he was in the same place as the soldiers for fun. So I also saw with my own eyes things that I would never have seen in the position of the crown prince in the past.

The crooked but trivial and lengthy letter to the family. The pieces of money that were saved and kept for the living expenses of parents, wives and children. I don't know where the song is a minor tune that represents my hometown. The heroes who are ready to awaken and set foot on the battlefield to defend their families and the country......

If he didn't come to Beiyan, he would never know the cruelty on the battlefield and the real suffering of the people. Although he survived this near-death and went through all the hardships, it made him really grow up.

He knew what he had to do for the people as a prince. In the future, when you sit on that dragon chair, what can you do for the people?

He was glad that this trip to Beiyan made him never be a faint gentleman who listened to and believed partially!

When Fang Xiaoyu said that the people of the capital suspected General Fang of defection, he was really a little sad. It's sad to be so wolfish than yourself.

He followed all the way, was loved, protected, and experienced by countless people, only to know how difficult this journey was. And they obviously tried their best, even gave their lives, but they were so misunderstood and framed!

He felt furious.

The prince also wanted to get up and sit next to Fang Jianzhang, but saw that Ye Xici was also struggling to get up. They glanced at each other, and both saw the renewed hope in each other's eyes. He immediately helped Ye Xiqi up and helped him sit next to Fang Xiaoyu, leaning against the wall so as not to make him fall.

And those injured soldiers also moved slowly, moving behind Fang Jianzhang or Fang Xiaoyu, forming a circle.

Fang Jianzhang's expression was a little stern, and he asked: "Even if the Fox Wolf Grassland sends troops to attack the quicksand country with all its might, if it forces the opponent's nearly 400,000 troops to jump over the wall in a hurry, they may desperately attack the border city gate." Now that there is a shortage of water and food, the defenders of the city will be difficult to support, and the other party is full of food and drink, and our side will never be an opponent. ”

Fang Jianzhang calculated, the nearly 600,000 troops of the Quicksand Country should all be supported by the Great Zhou. It is not known how many troops there are in the country of Quicksand, but if you count it, it is estimated that there are at least 200,000 soldiers and horses in the country of Quicksand.

At this point, if the fox wolf grassland does its best, it will not be a problem to attack the quicksand country.

The country of quicksand first raised 500,000 troops, and later reinforced 100,000, adding up to 600,000 soldiers and horses. Beiyan has not done nothing for such a long time, at least it has consumed hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses of the other party, although Beiyan's soldiers will suffer heavier losses.

Just when there are still 400,000 soldiers and horses left in the Quicksand Country, if you know that the Fox Wolf Grassland will attack the Quicksand Country, it will be difficult to ensure that you will not withdraw your troops and go back for reinforcements. And if these generals are all from the Great Zhou Dynasty and don't care about the life or death of the quicksand country, it is difficult to guarantee that they will take advantage of this to enter the palace Beiyan.

The situation in Beiyan is really not allowed to be chaotic anymore, regardless of the life or death of those traitors defending the city, what he is most afraid of now is that some of the soldiers defending the city will collaborate with the enemy and treason, and open the city gate to welcome the soldiers of the quicksand country into the city, and the consequences will be unimaginable!

"Has the imperial court ever allocated grain and grass?" The crown prince suddenly remembered this. If it weren't for the delay in the arrival of grain and grass, they would not have been taken advantage of by others to make layouts.

"The imperial court originally allocated grain and grass, but it disappeared on the road. I am afraid that this is deliberately done, and at least it is certain that there are people in their own country who do not want to win this war. It is even very likely that the other party wants to use this matter to keep your father and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince in Beiyan together. Fang Xiaoyu told the matter, and he didn't want the soldiers of Beiyan to resent the emperor for not allocating grain.

"Is it Ye Shucheng?" The first thing the prince thought of was Ye Shucheng.

Fang Xiaoyu shrugged, not knowing what he was thinking.

"This time, the imperial court allocated another million quintals of grain and grass, and I asked Sizhu to transport grain and grass with 50,000 Gyeonggi guards to ensure the safety of grain and grass. In addition, I have sent another million quintals of grain from elsewhere for the ink marks, and will arrive in the near future. Fang Xiaoyu is also according to everyone's hearts.

"The emperor sent 50,000 Gyeonggi guards? What should be the safety of the capital...... Could it be that the emperor wants to dispatch the Shenlong Guard? Fang Jianzhang was shocked.

"Shenlongwei?" Fang Xiaoyu was puzzled. She had never heard the word Shenlongwei.

She knew that Dacheng would never have only two or three million troops as it appeared on the surface, which was too few for a country with a large population. But she didn't know where the remaining hidden power came from.

Shenlongwei? Could it be that this is Dacheng's real hole card? Just hearing the name seems quite powerful. (To be continued.) )
