Chapter 192: Benevolence, Righteousness, and Wu Anjun

"I don't understand, what is the king trying to do?!" , General Qiang, who was sitting next to Bai Qi, said with some annoyance, Bai Qi glanced at him calmly, and then said: "This is also war." Ma Fujun said: War is a continuation of politics. The king wants to weaken the state of Chu and prevent the state of Chu from participating too much in the affairs of the Central Plains, which is why I don't continue to attack the capital of Chen, the territory of Chu is vast and cannot be destroyed. Our strategy can only be achieved by eliminating their youth. ”

"Then it's all the more important to kill these captives... If you want the state of Chu to become a part of the state of Qin, you can only kill ... Kill these young people first, and then comprehensively attack all regions of Chu State, if the Chu people dare to resist, we will kill them, and when there are only ten households left in the Chu State that are killed, and when there are three households, the Chu State will no longer dare to resist...", Qiang was a little irritable, and Meng Wu on the other side actually understood him very well.

When Qiang led the soldiers to attack Chendu, the casualties of the soldiers were very heavy, although Bai Qi also gave him a lot of heads, but these heads were only enough for him to counteract, in the Qin State, if there were more dead soldiers under his command and the number of beheadings, the generals would be cut off the title, Qiang's son had just come of age, and he had always wanted to leave his son a title of right, and his age was not young, this was likely to be his last chance to fight for the title.

If these captives were killed, he would naturally be able to get tens of thousands of heads... The Qin State stipulates that the head of a captive cannot be counted as a beheading, but the rules are dead and people are alive, for example, if the soldiers of the State of Chu resist, want to escape, and want to kill the soldiers of the State of Qin who have captured them, then they will turn from captives to enemies, and they can be counted as heads. Of course, because of Qin Law's harshness, many people didn't dare to do this, but now that they are in the territory of Chu State, Bai Qi is the supreme commander...

Bai Qi shook his head and said seriously: "This is the ideological war that Ma Fujun said... I've never fought a war like this, and I'd love to try. Bai Qi already had a choice, Qiang naturally didn't want to say anything, in the army, no one could disobey Bai Qi's orders, he just lowered his head and sighed.

King Qin's order really caused dissatisfaction among many soldiers, and the soldiers were okay, after all, they didn't dare to think about things like killing prisoners to get the head, not to mention, King Qin stipulated that prisoners could also be counted as military merits, so they didn't panic, only those generals were a little resistant in their hearts, and the head in their hands was ah... And so it floated away. After Bai Qi asked the captives to dig the pit, he didn't waste it.

He ordered that the corpses of the Chu people who died in the battle be thrown into these large pits that had been dug out, which could be regarded as burying them.

However, Bai Qi did not let these soldiers of Chu State go, and the King of Qin asked Bai Qi to be in charge of this ideological war. To tell the truth, Bai Qi's lifelong campaign, that is, what Ma Fujun said about sports warfare, blitzkrieg, information warfare, etc., he understands it, because this is how he fights, but he did not make a summary himself. It's just that Bai Qi has only done part of this ideological war.

He asked the lower-level officers to familiarize themselves with the book of horse clothing, and told the soldiers of the Qin State: Great Qin is to end the war in the world, the second and third sons are fighting for the world, one day, there will be no more wars in the whole world, taxes will be very low, there will be no heavy conscription, everyone can get arable land, and work with peace of mind... And these will be the credit of the second and third sons, and the descendants of the second and third sons will be blessed because of your current war.

When the Qin State was fighting, it liked to use the officials in the county town to serve as the low-level officers, and the county officials to serve as the middle- and upper-level officers, so the officers of the Qin State were all literate and knew the law. After receiving Bai Qi's order, these people began to preach to the soldiers, and in their mouths, the world of one king and the world was obviously a beautiful and perfect paradise.

The soldiers sat dumbfounded, listening to the Qin officials tell themselves.

Bai Qi didn't know if the so-called ideological warfare had played a role, but this did affect the mentality of the generals, who looked like saviors, and could seriously be captured and say to the generals of Chu State: Killing you is to save the world.

These Chu nobles were stunned.

It seems that the Qin people are really crazy.

Bai Qi is a pure general, and in his eyes, there is only victory over the enemy. In the past, he directly destroyed the enemy's body, but Ma Fujun's book told him a new way to directly destroy the opponent's mind. During this period of time, Bai Qi has been studying Ma Fujun's thoughts, which has made him quite fruitful. Originally, he didn't want to take risks, and wanted to kill these captives directly to weaken the living force of the Chu State to the greatest extent.

At this moment, with the order of the King of Qin, he could not kill them again, he wanted to try a war that he had never been exposed to.

Soon, the generals of the Qin State all received the latest orders from Bai Qi.

When the generals of the Qin State walked in front of the Chu people, the Chu people who were in rags and were gnawing on the baked cakes were very panicked, they were trembling all over, some begged, some cried, and some scolded, but the generals of the Qin State did not take them away, he just stood in the middle of the crowd and said amiably in the Chu language: "Let the second and third sons suffer... Don't worry, we won't kill you..."

"These days, the second and third sons have eaten our grain, and as long as the Chu State pays for the food eaten by the second and third sons during this time, we will send the second and third sons back."

Qin said, he said seriously: "Qin is not here to conquer Chu, we are here to save Chu!" Among the second and third sons, can there be people who have private land? Will the grain you have cultivated for a year feed you? The cultivated land of the Chu State is in the hands of the nobles, and the second and third sons can only cultivate it for them, and they can't even reclaim it themselves, in the Qin State, this is not the case, the Qin people can get their own arable land, they can reclaim the arable land, and no one will dare to take it away..."

"It is wrong to say that the laws of the Qin State are harsh, and the laws of the Qin State were established to protect the people...."

The more Qin Yi said, the more excited he became, he said: "The second and third sons should know Ma Fujun, Ma Fujun He proposed a way to save the world, that is, one king in the world, there is only one king in the world, there is only one country, everyone gathers under the command of this king, like brothers and sisters, there will be no more wars, there will be no more servitude...", Qin Yi said, he said angrily; "The war of the Qin State is a just war launched to save the world!"

"The second and third sons are afraid of the destruction of the Chu State? Can't bear to live in your homeland? This is ridiculous, who is the real Chu person among the second and third sons? The second and third sons were Wu people, Yue people, Chen people, and Sui people a few hundred years ago, but the country of the second and third sons was destroyed by the Chu State, and the second and third sons became Chu people... The trend of the world is like this, the state of Chu annexes the states, and naturally there are countries that will annex the state of Chu... The difference is that the annexation of other countries by the state of Chu only brings them disasters..."

"The state of Qin is not annexed, the state of Qin is to save..."

"Here, this is the Mafu book, which records Mafujun's thoughts in detail... I'll talk to the second and third sons...", Qin Yi took out the bamboo slips, and explained it to everyone seriously, the Chu people didn't know what the Qin people wanted to do, but they just listened to the Qin people there blankly, after the Qin officials finished speaking, they asked these Chu people a few simple questions, and the Chu people didn't dare to answer, only a new "Chu people" stood up timidly, answered the Qin officials' questions, and then, he was rewarded, a piece of fat mutton.

The Qin people adopted the method of encouragement, as long as the Chu people listened carefully, they could be rewarded, if they did not listen carefully, then they would be frightened by the Qin officials, and they would not dare not listen.

Still on the banks of Rushui, here, everywhere you can see the Chu prisoners sitting on the ground holding horse clothes and reciting them, exchanging their opinions with each other, this place does not look like a prisoner of war camp, but more like a school. The Qin officials became sacrificial wine, and seriously and kindly taught them the benevolent thoughts of Ma Fujun, and discussed the paradise of a king and a world.

"The Qin State used to kill the captives, but now it has not killed the second and third sons, why is this? It is because of Ma Fushu that the Qin State has already known the truth of benevolence, and our king regards all the people of the world as his own people... He is also going to implement all the benevolent government systems of Ma Fujun... Soon, the Qin Kingdom will become the prosperous paradise mentioned in the horse service book!! ”

Bai Qi transferred the captives to the city of Fuyan, because the people here were all dead, and there were enough dwellings to arrange these captives, although the officials did not relax their watch. Bai Qi would often walk around these houses, listening to the noise coming from inside, he could understand some Chu dialects, such as spare your life, don't kill me, God will kill you, etc., but what they said in the courtyard, Bai Qi was a little incomprehensible.

An official on the side explained to him that these Chu people were really studying the content of the horse clothing book by heart. But Bai Qi felt that most of the Chu people should be pretending, and when they left here, they would never think of these contents again, he had already sent people to Chendu, wanting to discuss the matter of the capture with the King of Chu, but he did not expect that the King of Chu had given up Chendu and ran to Shouchun.

Probably the news of Jingyang's defeat has reached Chendu.

However, the strategic intention is to complete, Qin originally wanted to force Chu to move the capital, who would have thought that the small-scale battle would directly evolve into a big war between the two countries, fortunately, Qin did not suffer, and also completed its goal, and even had some unexpected gains.

When the king of Chu arrived at Shouchun, Shouchun had gathered nearly 100,000 soldiers again, the advantage of Chu was here, he had enough strength to compete with Qin, he was not like other countries, he would die after a big defeat, and the national strength of Chu was strong, even if it experienced defeat, it could gather soldiers again. However, the king of Chu was not happy to see these soldiers.

His face turned red, and he couldn't even raise his head, and he was deeply ashamed of the escape to Shouchun.

Chun Shenjun has already prepared everything here, long before the war, Chun Shenjun has actually made arrangements in Shouchun, he is a cautious person, he is not sure of defeating the Qin people, so he naturally has to leave a way back for the Chu State, Chun Shenjun has always proposed to move the capital, and when he was not at war with the Qin State, he proposed to move the capital to Shouchun, because Chen Du was too close to the Qin State, it was too dangerous.

At the beginning, the King of Chu was also a little shaken, and even thought about whether he should move the capital to Shouchun, but now, the King of Chu's face is only left with grievance and anger, after all, moving the capital by himself and being beaten to the capital are completely different concepts. Although Shouchun's palace was not as luxurious as Chendu, however, the king of Chu didn't care about this, and as soon as he entered the palace, he called Chun Shenjun over.

In these days, Chun Shenjun can hardly close his eyes for a day, he has to dispatch troops from all over the country to protect the king of Chu, but also deploy their food and baggage logistics, Chu has missed two years of spring planting, although the national strength of Chu is strong, but it will definitely not be able to bear such a loss. At such a time of crisis, an envoy from the State of Qin came and told Chun Shenjun that the State of Chu could pay the same amount of grain in exchange for the captured soldiers.

The State of Qin and the State of Chu demanded two million stone of grain... Chun Shenjun sat in front of the King of Chu exhausted.

Seeing Huang Xie's appearance, King Chu was also a little worried in his eyes, he didn't want Huang Xie to be tired to death like Xiang Xian. Xiang Xian's death made the king of Chu very sad, the king of Chu returned the title of Linwujun to Xiang Xian, and buried him, Xiang Xian's son, as well as his younger brother, were rewarded by the king of Chu, however, Xiang Xian's younger brother refused the reward of the king of Chu, and took 20,000 soldiers under his command to stay behind Chen Dudu.

"Will the Qin people keep their promises?" , The king of Chu asked, the credibility of the Qin people is recognized as poor, and it can even be said that they have no reputation, as early as after they experienced being deceived by Zhang Yi and deceived by the king of Qin, the Chu people no longer believe in the Qin people, and when they heard that the Qin people wanted to let the Chu state redeem the prisoners, the king of Chu subconsciously felt that this was the strategy of the Qin people, and after they took the grain, they would definitely kill those prisoners.

Insert a sentence, the book reading app I've been using recently, [ Source Change Artifact APP] There are many book sources, all books, and fast updates!

The Qin people had no credibility in front of the Chu people, Chun Shenjun thought for a moment, and then said tiredly: "The king... Even if the Qin people will keep their promises, the ministers will not be able to prepare two million stone of food, our food is already a little insufficient, if the war continues until next year, in the territory of Chu, I don't know how many people will starve to death, even the virtuous ministers in the palace, I don't know if they can eat a full meal..."

Huang Xie shook his head and said resolutely: "I can't give it." ”

"If the widow does not redeem these captives... How will the Chinese people view the widows? The King of Chu asked again.

"This matter, you can leave it to me, the people of the country know the cunning nature of the Qin people, as long as they know that this is the trick of the Qin people, no matter whether the Chu State gives food or not, they will kill the captives, perhaps, those captives have been killed now... They know these things, so naturally they won't blame you anymore...", Huang Xie frowned, and said seriously: "The minister must continue to collect troops, stick to Shouchun, Juyang, and Xia Cai..."

"Now, I can only send people to Zhao State and ask Zhao State to send troops, Qin State's army is in Nanyang, if Zhao State's army can attack Shangdang... can be attacked on both sides...", Huang Xie tried to sober himself up, and said: "I heard that Zhao Guo had a bumper harvest last year, and there was enough food, and Chu State had rescued Zhao State before, and Zhao State should not sit idly by... There is also the Wei State, and the Mao Sui of the Wei State also has a Wei army, so that he can rush to Jiaoxian County and prepare to support Juyang..."

The king of Chu listened carefully, but his heart was extremely uneasy.

Jingyang couldn't stop Bai Qi, but some soldiers who were temporarily recruited could really stop the attack of the Qin people?
