"PS: Today's two chapters have been released, and we will continue to add more chapters later, and book friends can wait until tomorrow to read them. To collect the wealth of the clan, it should be written in the chapter on the sheep's tongue, so it is necessary to speed up the rhythm of this section and start writing about the attitude of the high-level of Chu and the attitude of other countries. Also, don't ask about the manuscript again, the manuscript is dead.'
ββββ the following textββββ
The ominous premonition in Yan Mo's heart really came true.
When Zhao Hongrun ordered the Wei soldiers of the Junshui Battalion to quickly take control of the whole city, and personally led 500 Wei soldiers to the place where the shouts of killing were heard, he was stunned to find that on the road near the center of the city, there were corpses of ordinary Chu people, old and young, men and women.
Zhao Hongrun frowned and looked at Hou Bai, the general who was panting and rushing over, but saw that Hou Bai was also stunned for a moment after seeing the corpses all over the ground, and looked around blankly.
Zhao Hongrun was about to say something, when he suddenly heard a woman's scream and cry not far ahead, he frowned, and galloped over.
It didn't take long for Zhao Hongrun to ride a war horse to a few mud brick houses, only to see that outside the house, more than a dozen Ping Xuan soldiers were laughing and laughing about something.
After all, who Zhao Hongrun is, none of them in the Pingxuan Army are not clear.
Zhao Hongrun ignored the sergeants and soldiers, turned over and dismounted, came to the outside of a mud brick house, and kicked the door open.
Suddenly, the sound in the room stopped abruptly, and several Pingxuan soldiers in the room subconsciously raised their weapons and looked back at the door, when they found that it was His Royal Highness King Su of Wei who kicked the door, they were all a little at a loss.
At this time, Zhao Hongrun's Zongwei Shen Yu and Zhang Biao, as well as Yan Mo and Hou Bai of the Ping Xuan Army, also poured in.
"Damn!"
Yan Mo and Hou Bai scolded in their hearts.
For they saw the corpse of a man on the ground in the house. Although he had long since choked his breath, his face still clearly retained his anger, and on the bed, a stripped woman was crying in a low voice in the shabby bedding, and beside the bed, several soldiers of the Pingxuan Army stood helplessly, and one of them was even more anxious to strip naked. At the moment, he is hiding behind his companions with his head down.
"These ...... of the bastards"
Yan Mo gritted his teeth hatefully.
At this moment, he was so ashamed that he wanted to pick up a knife and kill all these guys.
What a shame! It's a shame!
Secretly glancing at the somewhat unhappy expression on Zhao Hongrun's face, Yan Mo couldn't help but think of yesterday's incident.
I remember that after conquering Runan yesterday, Zhao Hongrun asked him Yan Mo if he had disturbed the people in the city, and he Yan Mo didn't think much about it at that time, but just said truthfully, "The soldiers and generals of the Junshui Battalion are very regular."
At that time, Zhao Hongrun's expression was a little strange.
Yan Mo didn't think much about it at the time, but felt a little strange. It was only at this moment that he suddenly realized: it turned out that His Royal Highness King Su was not worried about the Junshui Battalion, but about these Pingxuan soldiers from the Chu army under his command!
Who can guarantee that these Pingxuan soldiers who have committed the evil deeds of burning, killing, looting and plundering the people of Wei will definitely follow military discipline when they treat the people of their homeland?
"This ...... What should I do?'
Yan Mo couldn't help but feel a little difficult.
I have to say that this question is really tricky.
You must know that the state of Chu does not restrict the sergeants and soldiers of the army from killing and plundering in the city after conquering the enemy city, after all, this kind of barbaric looting. It is the main source of wealth for the poor Chu soldiers, after all, the Chu army has nothing but a "settling-in fee". However, there is no so-called military salary, it all depends on the looting after conquering the enemy city, and if it is forcibly stopped, it will cause dissatisfaction and backlash among the sergeants and soldiers.
Therefore, the generals of the Chu State often turned a blind eye to the killing and plundering of their subordinates.
But the problem is that now it is Zhao Hongrun, the king of Great Wei, who is in charge. And His Royal Highness King Su made his position clear to Yan Mo yesterday: We are soldiers, not Kou!
Thinking of this, Yan Mo couldn't help but glance at Hou Bai, the two thousand generals, with hatred.
After noticing Yan Mo's resentful eyes, Hou Bai, who was two thousand people, couldn't help but feel a little wronged. He said in his heart, "I have not supported these people who are persecuting their homeland, I just have them stationed here."
But even so, he still understood the hidden meaning in Yan Mo's gaze, and he was stunned for a moment, and shouted in a deep voice: "Someone! β¦β¦ Drag out these degraded pieces of military discipline and cut them down! β
As soon as the words fell, the sergeants of Pingxuan outside the house rushed in when they heard the sound, and they were all a little surprised by Hou Bai's order, but they did not dare to disobey after all.
Seeing this, the few sergeants in the room knelt on the ground in fright, and cried and begged: "The general spares his life!" The general spares his life! β
Yan Mo and Hou Bai turned their heads away in disgust, believing that they must be very resentful of these soldiers who persecuted the people of their own country at this moment.
They simply didn't have the face to face the Wei soldiers of the Junshui Battalion.
You must know that although the Chu soldiers had killed and plundered many of the people of the Wei State in the territory of the Wei State, they could attack the territory of the Chu State, and none of the Wei soldiers repaid their grievances with grievances, and they never did anything to massacre the people of the Chu State.
The Wei army, they understand the concept of "enemy" very well, on the battlefield, they will never let go of any Chu soldiers who still hold weapons and try to resist, but when they leave the battlefield, they will never kill those unarmed Chu people.
This is the quality that an elite division should have.
Looking at the army of Chu from this point of view, it is simply a rabble! A bunch of bandits! A bunch of bandits!
There is no right to call it an army at all!
It may be that seeing that Yan Mo and Hou Bai don't care about them, the few Pingxuan soldiers in the house cried to Zhao Hongrun.
"His Royal Highness King Su, we are all sincerely obedient to you and to Great Wei...... We're waiting, yes, we've long regarded ourselves as Wei people, so ...... These Chu people are our enemies, don't you say? β
"Can you say that?"
Yan Mo's eyes showed a strong look of disgust.
But he didn't say anything, just turned his head to look at Zhao Hongrun, as long as Zhao Hongrun said the word "kill" in his mouth, I believe that he would definitely kill all these shameless miscellaneous people without saying a word.
In his opinion, these miscellaneous people are not worthy of the Wei people. Not worthy of being a Chu person!
Under Yan Mo's close attention, Zhao Hongrun sighed after pondering for a while: "Yes, this king said that all the Chu soldiers who surrendered to this king will be treated equally by this king. But...... This king wants soldiers, not cowards! After that, he glanced at the few desperate soldiers and soldiers, and said in a deep voice: "You should be credited with surrendering to this king and helping Qu Cheng capture this city, but the evil deeds you have done today will not be tolerated by this king." β¦β¦ The merits and demerits are offset by this, and this king will not kill you. However, you are no longer soldiers of the Pingxuan Army. Go, take with you the filth you have plundered, leave the city, and return to your homeland. β
"His Royal Highness King Su ......"
Zhao Hongrun raised his hand violently to interrupt the pleading of the Pingxuan soldiers, and said coldly: "This is already the bottom line of this king. β¦β¦ If you don't leave, you won't be able to leave. β
"What a reward......
Yan Mo, Hou Bai, and the rest of the Pingxuan soldiers in the house were all in awe when they heard this.
They were shocked by Zhao Hongrun's resolute attitude towards not harming civilians. was also moved by Zhao Hongrun's rewards and punishments, so clear that because of the other party's merits, he spared these Chu soldiers who could be called miscellaneous in their eyes.
"Don't get out of here!" Yan Mo bared his teeth and shouted.
Those few sergeants of Pingxuan, no. It should be said that the original Chu soldiers who had been removed from the Pingxuan Army, they glanced at Zhao Hongrun in horror, especially Yan Mo, who was full of murderous intent beside him, lowered his head and took the looted property, and left in a hurry.
glanced at the woman who was still bowing her head and sobbing on the couch in the room, and then glanced at the dead Chu Min who fell to the ground. Zhao Hongrun let out a long breath and called in a deep voice: "Yan Mo." β
"The last general!"
"In the name of this king, you have sent an order to the Pinghui army: this king has decided to give the Pinghui soldiers a salary that is higher than that of the Yanling soldiers, and the goods taken from the great clan, when the king rewards the three armies after the war. Rewards will also be given to the whole army accordingly. However, from now on, the Pingxuan army will no longer kill and loot needlessly, and if the king is bumped into again, he will be killed! β
"Yes!"
Yan Mo was impressed in his heart, and responded with his fists.
"Hou Bai."
"The end will be."
"Assemble the sergeants, this city will be taken over by the Junshui battalion, and if there are any sergeants who have committed murder, plunder, and robbery during this period, they will all be eliminated from the Pingxuan army, and let them return to their hometown with dirt."
"Obey!"
Half an hour later, the 2,000 soldiers who remained in the city were informed of the latest order from Zhao Hongrun, the king of Su.
It is undeniable that most people are very happy, after all, Zhao Hongrun decided to give them military salaries, and the amount is comparable to that of Yan Lingbing, not to mention Zhao Hongrun's promise that after the war, he will reward them with some of the wealth of the big clans he captured.
This greatly enhanced Zhao Hongrun's prestige in the Pingxuan army.
However, Zhao Hongrun's order in the second half made most of the Ping Xuan soldiers look at each other.
What the? Killing and plundering Chu Min? They killed and plundered the people of Chu by the soldiers of the Ping Xuan Army?
This...... How is this possible?
You must know that the soldiers of the Pingxuan Army are all Chu people, since they are Chu people, how can they commit such evil deeds as rape, robbery, and murder in this Chu country?
However, the results of the investigation made most of the Pingxuan soldiers look at each other: it turns out that among their Chu people, there are really that damn miscellaneous things.
It was simply difficult for them to accept that the Wei people had never persecuted the people of their Chu State, but on the contrary, they were their compatriots, who had done such ugly and shameless things in disregard of their homeland.
This undoubtedly complicates their feelings.
After this episode, the Wei soldiers of the Junshui camp quickly took over the entire "Pengcheng", and the Peng clan had already surrendered at this time, and Zhao Hongrun did not kill them, but gave them a copy, ordering them to move to Runan immediately.
For the other nine, Zhao Hongrun ordered the Yan Ling soldiers who were rushing to transport the carriage to quickly load the cart and transport it back to Runan, where they would be transported to Great Wei in the future.
As for the domestic slaves and farmers of the Peng family, Zhao Hongrun announced that the previous contract was invalid and asked these people to move to Runan.
However, it is undeniable that due to some shameless things done by individual Pingxuan soldiers in Pengcheng, the Chu people in this city do not trust this mixed army of Chu and Wei people.
At this time, Qu Cheng had already conquered the next small city built by a big clan.
It is said to be a large clan called "Lu". (To be continued.) )
