Chapter 510 captures Tanzhou
In the city of Tanzhou, the fire is still raging.
The heat of the fire seems to be reaching the city gates.
The Tang army was still attacking the city, and the soldiers and horses of the Wei State were obviously a little absent-minded.
Li Yu stood under the city tower, looking at the situation on the city tower, his eyebrows slightly condensed.
"This Sima Yi is really ruthless."
Sima Yi would rather burn down the entire city of Tanzhou than send someone to put out the fire, this situation is not something that just one person can do.
But it's hard to say whether the choice was right or not.
And just when Li Yu said this, Xu Maogong next to him said: "Shengshang, the fire has burned Tanzhou City, even if we capture Tanzhou City, we are afraid of many things, and it will not be easy to deal with it." ”
When these words came out, Li Yu's expression moved slightly, and he immediately understood the meaning of Xu Mao's words.
Not only did they want to take the city, but they also wanted to keep the people behind it.
Now that they have set fire to the homes of these people, will these people have no hatred?
In this fire, I am afraid that many innocent people will die.
Even if Tanzhou City is captured, what is left to them in the Tang Kingdom will definitely be a mess.
The situation is not good.
And just when Li Yu was contemplating his eyebrows, there was a sudden change above the city tower.
"Shengshang, the soldiers and horses of the Wei State seem to be retreating."
"Retreat?" Li Yu was a little shocked, although because of the fire, the pressure on them to attack the city was much less, but to capture Tanzhou City, I was afraid that it would have to wait until dawn, and it was only midnight, and the soldiers and horses of the Wei State could hold on for at least three hours.
But they were to retreat.
Li Yu quickly reacted that Sima Yi was preserving his power, and the fire had destroyed the people's homes, so he just wanted to leave a mess for himself.
The Wei soldiers and horses were really retreating, and it didn't take long for them to push out Tanzhou City and march directly in the direction of Xudu.
Tang Jun, on his side, suddenly hesitated to enter the city.
"Holy Lord, now that the fire in Tanzhou City is raging, should we go in to put out the fire?"
Everyone has set their eyes on Li Yu, and now it is very unfavorable for them to enter the city or not.
They are now in a very tangled situation.
Li Yu's expression was solemn, the fire in the city was still raging, and the people might be suffering casualties, although there were not many of them, but after entering, they could extinguish the fire as quickly as possible.
Hesitation, hesitation.
In the end, Li Yu said: "Enter the city and put out the fire." ”
Even if something wrong has been brewed, even if the people in the city will not forgive them, Li Yu still decides to put out the fire.
If you can save a people, you are a people.
At the sound of an order, the Tang army rushed into Tanzhou City.
Many places in Tanzhou City are on fire, and the fire is very big, making the whole Tanzhou City look hot.
Some people were fleeing, some people were fighting fires, and when they saw the Tang army rushing in, they were scared, scared.
However, what these people didn't expect was that these Tang troops who rushed in didn't do anything to them, not only did they not, but helped them put out the fire.
This fire was set by the Tang army, but they were still very shocked and puzzled by the Tang army's firefighting.
The night had gradually passed, and it was not until dawn that the fire in Tanzhou City was finally extinguished.
There was smoke floating over Tanzhou City, and although many people came out alive, many people also died in the fire.
The people gathered together, they looked at the tired Tang Jun, and the emotions in their eyes were a little complicated.
"This fire was set by my Tang Kingdom, some of you have lost your family members, some have died of friends, you resent my Tang Kingdom, there is no problem, you do have the qualifications to resent my Tang Kingdom, but when the war starts, you should do whatever it takes, if I let Tang Kingdom make a choice, I will still choose to set fire."
War is cruel, and there is no need to feel guilty about slaughtering the soldiers and civilians of the other side before the enemy and the enemy have not decided the winner.
On the battlefield, human life is like a mustard, what's wrong with killing one or two people?
Li Yu's words were deafening, and after he said this, some of the people in Tanzhou were a little commotion, because Li Yu's words were too hurtful.
Burning down their homes, and not repenting, no matter how they listened, it made them feel uncomfortable.
Moreover, they are the people of the Wei State, and they have no good impression of the Tang State, so it is normal to cause a commotion at this time.
However, at this time, Li Yu said again: "The Wei State will be destroyed sooner or later, and now I give you two choices, if you want to be the people of Wei, I will let you go now, and if you want to be the people of the Tang Kingdom, you will stay, the burned homes, I will send people to rebuild them for you, and your family members will be burned to death, and my Tang Kingdom will compensate you, now, make your choice." ”
The situation in Tanzhou City is indeed a mess, and if it is not handled well, the situation is really bad, so even if it will cost a lot of money, now Li Yu has to find a way to solve this matter.
After he said this, these people in Tanzhou City began to hesitate, they didn't know how to make a choice.
If they choose to leave, will the Tang Army kill them?
But let them stay, and some people really don't want to.
In this world, there will always be some people who value integrity more seriously.
Of course, there are also some people who are less timid and have no pursuits, they just want to live well.
Talking, talking, and soon, someone made a choice.
Some people chose to leave, they still wanted to be the people of Wei, and after they left, the Tang army did not make a move, and directly let them go.
And after this part left, the other people saw that Tang Jun had no intention of making a move, and they immediately chose to leave.
In the end, half of the people who chose to leave, and the rest were willing to continue to stay in Tanzhou City and become the people of the Tang Kingdom.
Li Yu was somewhat relieved when he saw this situation, whether these people wanted it or not, it didn't matter to them Tang Guo, but the most important thing was that he wanted to ensure that the people behind him would not have a rebellious heart.
In this way, they can continue to attack Xudu.
"Okay, since you are willing to stay and be the people of the Tang Kingdom, then according to your losses, I will send someone to compensate you."
After saying this, Li Yu and the others did not leave in a hurry, but wanted to appease Tanzhou City, and when they were appeased, they would continue to rush and attack Xudu.
Of course, now that the Ming Kingdom and the Zhou Kingdom are almost about to take down the city, their Tang Kingdom is a little faster, and they need to wait here for the Ming Kingdom and the Zhou Kingdom.
They have to be on the same page.
