Chapter 106 Preparing to evacuate Pyongyang City

Under Su Xingchen's arrangement, the generals of the allied army moved very quickly, they took their own soldiers of the headquarters, took the west gate as the central point, and quickly searched and advanced in the east, south, and north directions, and in less than three hours, they captured more than 10,000 people in Pyongyang, these captured people were all young and strong women and children under the age of 40, and there was no one for the old, weak, sick and disabled!

Outside the West City Gate, large and small warships covered with the entire Xicheng moat, a team of Allied soldiers were escorting those civilian prisoners to board the boat!

The captives of the common people looked full of grief and indignation, but their faces were bloodless, lifeless, and their eyes were very blank, they all carried their shoulders and hands, carrying the only food and property they had, and under the command of the Allied soldiers, one team after another boarded the ship!

"General, isn't it a little too cruel for us to do this?"

Looking at the miserable faces of the common captives, Zhang Jie was a little unbearable, he was born in a literati family, although he had fallen into a family of ordinary people as early as his grandfather's generation, but after all, there was a family heritage, he followed his grandfather to learn the way of Confucius and Mencius since he was a child, and was greatly influenced by Confucianism!

Su Xingchen turned to look at Zhang Jie, staring at Zhang Jie with two sharp eyes, and said coldly for a long time: "Zhang Jie, you have to remember!" You are now a general, not a literati, and you can't help but be merciful! The next time I say these words that shake the morale of the army, I will definitely not be spared! ”

"Yes! The last general knows it's wrong! Please, General, Anger! Zhang Jie's face turned pale, and he quickly knelt down to admit his mistake!

"Get up!" Su Xingchen stepped forward to help him up, and his tone became much softer.

"I hope you can remember that there is only blood and death on the battlefield, and those who are soft-hearted will not survive!"

Su Xingchen looked at the generals around him and said solemnly to everyone: "The marshal often teaches us that war is never warm, and wars between different nationalities and countries are even more so!" Today we are strong, we will conquer, those who follow will survive, and those who go against will die! In the same way, when they become stronger, they will do the same to us! ”

"I hope everyone must understand that the war between different races is neither righteous nor evil, both sides are in order to improve the living environment of their own nation and expand the development space of their own nation, there is never any right or wrong statement, only the naked law of the jungle, only blood and conquest!"

"Goguryeo, as an alien country, has been spying on our land of China for hundreds of years. At this time, the territory of the Great Sui was turbulent and about to burst into flames, and the development of our Han nation would fall into a historical low ebb. ”

"At such a time, if we are too merciful today, tomorrow they will use their long knives and spears to plague our people and kill our fellow citizens. Therefore, today we can only deal with the internal affairs of our Han nation with peace of mind if we completely cripple them and plunge them into civil strife and hardship......

"The last general understands, thank you for the general's teaching!" All the generals saluted to Su Xingchen in unison!

Most of them are from ordinary people, and they have an innate sympathy and pity for ordinary people, so they are a little resistant to the orders of the captured civilians in their hearts, although they all strictly implement Su Xingchen's orders, but they have never figured out why they did that, and they have always tied a knot in their hearts. And Su Xingchen's words made them completely understand the reason, and also completely opened the knot in their hearts!

"General, then why are we retreating now? Isn't it a pity that there are still a large number of people living in Pyongyang who have money and food, so we just left? It is better for the general to hand over this task to the last general, and then give the last general a thousand men and horses, and the last general will definitely be able to capture all the people in this Pyongyang city before dawn tomorrow! ”

Wang Wei excitedly suggested to Su Xingchen that he was born in the Sui Army, had a military career of more than ten years, experienced dozens of battles of all sizes, was accustomed to seeing the weak and the strong, parting with life and death, and cultivated a hard-hearted heart, therefore, he did not have any resistance to the practice of capturing ordinary people, nor did he have any knots, and he just had the idea of completing the task perfectly!

Looking at Wang Wei's excited appearance, Su Xingchen had a dumb smile, and he secretly wondered in his heart: Is the marshal thinking too much!

It turned out that Su Shang had always been a little worried that these generals were too young, inexperienced, and prone to extremes in their thinking when encountering problems, so before he led the army to the domestic city, he also specially explained to Su Xingchen, asking Su Xingchen to pay attention to the ideological situation of these generals at any time, and always be ready to give them an ideological lesson!

"Captain Wang's idea is very good, and Ben Jiang wants to do it too!"

Su Xingchen looked at everyone and smiled, and then said, "However, the current conditions don't allow it!" The general has already received the news that Gao Yuan, the king of Yingyang, has opened the door to surrender to the general, and the general has also ordered the Sui army in the city to temporarily stop all kinds of actions, and we are all acting as the Sui army this time, so we have no chance to shoot openly! ”

"Another point is the most important, according to my estimates, including the marshal, the enemy soldiers and civilians who will be captured in the inner city, at present we should have more than 30,000 prisoners, and our current number of soldiers is too small, if there are more prisoners, it will be difficult for us to suppress them when we return by boat, and it is easy to have accidents. In addition, the transport capacity of our warships will also be insufficient! ”

"Is that so? What a shame that is! ”

Wang Wei looked at the city of Pyongyang from afar, with a look of pity and regret on his face, "There are so many people in the city who have left them with so much money and food, it is really too cheap and high yuan for them!" General, are we going to go like this? Do you want to set them on fire? ”

Su Xingchen was overjoyed, he wanted to give this order to the generals just now, but there were already some generals before, because the order of the captured people had a knot, he was worried that after this order was issued, those generals would be even more resistant, so he never found the right time to say it!

Su Xingchen lowered his head, pretended to think about it, and said with a smile: "Captain Wang, your proposal is very good!" In fact, for the survival and development of the Han nation, our best way is to wipe out all their living forces. However, if you do that, there will be more people to kill, and the sin will be too great! Therefore, let's take another approach and try to consume their war power, which is also feasible! ”

"Wang Wei, this is the method you have come up with, then this task will be handed over to you! You immediately lead 500 soldiers to execute! An hour later, you rushed directly to the docking point of the Hunshui River to board the boat and evacuate! ”

"Yes! The last will obey! Wang Wei answered the order, he didn't stay any longer, just turned around and ran out to prepare!

Su Xingchen turned around and gave another order to everyone, "Zhang Jie, you immediately go and assist Captain Wang Peng and set up those craftsmen with him." Those craftsmen are talents, and you must not go wrong! The other generals also immediately boarded the ship, arranged their respective headquarters officers, and our fleet will set sail and evacuate in half an hour! ”

"Yes!"
