The officers and men of the Han army carried out Yuan Zhao's orders very thoroughly. Although the killing of seventy or eighty thousand people overnight seemed an unusually cruel thing, none of the generals disagreed.

The enemy is the enemy. On the battlefield, mercy to the enemy is cruelty to oneself. Today, such a creed has been firmly instilled in the hearts of every soldier of the Han army. So they didn't hesitate to cut off the heads of those who were seriously injured with their knives.

The fierce Persians, until they fell into this boundless darkness of hell, could not believe that this eastern land, which they thought was within easy reach, contained such a hideous and terrifying power.

It's just that they don't have a chance to regret it. Once the dragon guarding this splendid and prosperous land is enraged, its scales and claws will fly, roaring in the sky, and the whole world and the four seas and eight wildernesses will prostrate and bow down in its long groan!

When another dawn came, Yuan Zhao, the prime minister of the Han Empire, who had not slept all night, walked down the Yumen Pass in the reverent eyes of thousands of soldiers. The blood and fire outside the city have not stopped, and victory is already in hand.

"Persians, that's it. Those who dominate with the posture of a brutal and strong beam will definitely die in the end! Our ancestors have spoken this truth countless times. It's just a pity that it will take a long time for these barbarians to understand. ”

Yuan Zhao walked across the drawbridge with a calm expression and saw that the moat under the city had been filled with Persian corpses. His tone was flat. The west wind is fierce, the smoke rises, the corners of his eyes and eyebrows, endless majesty, he is no longer the lonely and brave boy.

All the large numbers of generals who followed behind him were all awe-inspiring. The man who led them on never wore armor or carried a sword. But in the eyes of all of them, the figure itself was a long knife. As long as he points in the direction, they are willing to repay each other with blood.

Thousands of years of circulation, the legend of the famous general, the edge of the empire, this is the most!

"Yuanhou, I hate these Persians, who have come thousands of miles for no reason, killed and injured so many brothers in our army in the Western Regions, and all the places outside the border have fallen. In just a few months, their atrocities in the Western Regions were outrageous...... In today's battle, there is finally a bad breath! ”

These generals and schools in Yumen Pass have been aggrieved for many days. In the past few days, the beacon fire has been in an emergency, several counties outside the pass have been lost one after another, and the Persian troops are overwhelming, all of which make them feel that the jade gate guarded by them is in danger. Unexpectedly, with the arrival of Yuan Zhao, the army of 100,000 was drawn in a battle. Everything will be solved. How can this not make people's hearts stirred and their fighting spirits high!

Yuan Zhao nodded slightly. Of course, he can understand the emotions in the hearts of the border soldiers. And a large part of the reason why such radical methods were used to deal with the Persians outside the city was to boost the morale of the army and dispel the frustration in the hearts of some Han soldiers.

Now it seems that his goal has been achieved. Feeling the indomitable spirit emanating from the soldiers, Yuan Zhao said again.

"The first battle outside the Yumen Pass, although it was a great victory. But you can't despise the other party because of this. The combat effectiveness of the Persian army was still very strong. Next, the enemy we face directly will probably be the ace army of the king of Persia himself. It's an uphill battle, and I'm afraid it's hard to avoid. ”

"Yuanhou rest assured! On the day of the war, all the soldiers advanced and did not retreat, although they were not afraid of death! ”

Everyone puffed up their chests and thumped their ribs with the hilt of their swords. After this battle, no one would be afraid to face the Persians again.

"What are you talking about? The purpose of my war with you is not to send you to death. but for merit and glory! If the Persians are subdued again this time, looking at the whole world, it is likely that there will not be many enemies in the future of the Han Empire. This also means that the opportunity for men to gain wealth and fame immediately is greatly reduced...... Hehe. I hope each and every one of you will cherish it! ”

Yuan Zhao's words were like immediately giving everyone who listened carefully a chicken blood, whether it was a general or a younger lieutenant, their eyes were shining.

Even if they were martial artists, they all understood what Yuan Zhao conveyed to them. As the most important ruling minister of the Han Empire, what he said in public would definitely not be without purpose. His words have made it very clear that as the most important war of the Han Empire to the outside world, if he can make meritorious contributions in this battle to quell Persia, then the reward must be extremely rich!

"Yuanhou is mighty! The Great Han is mighty! …… This is going to fight Persia, not to destroy this dynasty food, and vow not to return home! ”

Don't say anything, just wait to do what Hou Ye instructs! The generous voice of the soldiers of the Han family spread all over the four fields. Countless crows that smelled blood flew around.

Outside the Jade Gate, it was already empty. After a night of fighting, the rolling hills and sand dunes were even more bare, and the vegetation was burned to the ground. All that was left was a messy battlefield, and it looked a little shocking.

The Persian army, which had been besieging the city with great momentum yesterday, was now no longer to be seen. The fierce warriors who had crossed the mountains and seas for the ambition of the king of Persia had become corpses that covered the land.

The burial place of nearly 100,000 people is just a fluttering stroke in the history books. However, if you see it with your own eyes, you will feel this unparalleled weight.

In the distance, the banner of the Han army fluttered faintly, and the men of the Han family who were chasing and killing everywhere were returning triumphantly one after another. They killed every Persian they could see until the end of the night.

"...... shouldn't have been so vicious!"

A whispered voice rang in Yuan Zhao's heart. He smiled wryly and shook his head, but he wouldn't say anything about it. Having come to this point, he can no longer have the slightest soft-heartedness. Because, on his shoulders is the rise and fall of a great empire, and he has the historical mission of maintaining and inheriting the ancient Chinese nation. Perhaps only by standing at this height, can he have a deeper understanding of those who bear the reputation of "executioners" in the long history of thousands of years.

In comparison, Qin Zhibai killed 400,000 Zhao overnight, and Xiang Yu, the overlord of Western Chu, killed 200,000 Qin troops at night, but they are not the same as what he is doing. They are all fighting for hegemony for the dynasty and killing their own clans. And he did not hesitate to slaughter the enemy with the sharpest means, but it was to resist foreign humiliation and maintain the glorious majesty of the Chinese nation! Presumably, in the history books of later generations, there should be a public opinion.

Yuan Zhao was thinking about it when he suddenly heard a soldier report that he had found a strange Persian on the battlefield. The other party turned out to be fluent in Chinese, and he desperately shouted loudly to see the supreme commander of the Han army. The soldier who caught him wanted to cut him with a knife, but unexpectedly, the man who looked like a madman took out a roll of parchment from his body and said that he was willing to dedicate the highest wisdom in the world to the commander of the Han army, just to make him promise one thing.

Yuan Zhao frowned, and then ordered to bring people over to have a look with an attitude that was unavoidable. Soon after, the young commander of the empire, standing on a scorched hill, met Buyano, who had followed the Persian army to the east.

Yuan Zhao, who was surrounded by soldiers in heavy armor, could see at a glance that the shabby guy in front of him was not a person from the Persian army. Obviously, he didn't have that kind of fierce aura, and even between his eyebrows, there was a bit of a familiar bookish atmosphere.

"Who are you...... Why do you want to see me? ”

Yuan Zhao looked at him a few times, and then casually took the thick roll of parchment handed over by the Han military captain who escorted him. When he opened it, his hand suddenly stopped.

"My name is Buyano. Don't...... You are the commander of this Han Dynasty army?"

Buyano looked up, his brown eyes revealing a look of shock. He could never have imagined that the general who ordered the merciless slaughter of a hundred thousand Persian troops with such brutal means would be such a young man.

"Yes, I am. So...... Who wrote what is on this parchment roll? ”

Yuan Zhao retracted his gaze meaningfully, staring seriously at this Xiyi man who couldn't tell his real age. The generals were a little surprised, and did not understand why he was so interested in a Persian captive.

"It's not anything, it's the highest wisdom in the world!"

It was astonishing that Buyano, who was still covered with a lot of blood on his face, raised his head proudly when he spoke of the parchment roll, and his face glowed with extreme confidence.

Yuan Zhao smiled faintly, he seemed to sense the contempt in the other party's heart, and said casually while flipping through it with his hand.

"The wisdom of the world is nothing but the inevitable product of the forward development of history. Everyone has it, and the times have changed, so how can there be any high or low?"

Unexpectedly, hearing his deliberately tentative words, the person in front of him seemed to have forgotten his identity as a prisoner, and despite the angry eyes of the Han soldiers, he protested loudly.

"There are prophetic awakened beings in this world! How can the treasures left behind by the great prophets be easily desecrated...... Everything recorded above is related to the secrets of the universe, stars, mountains, seas, and the earth. I'm afraid that there is no one in your Han Dynasty who can understand! ”

Hearing that his tone was so loud, and he looked like he was arrogant, all the Han army generals and colonels had no doubt that this guy was probably frightened by the cruel battlefield last night, so he didn't know that he was afraid of talking nonsense here.

"Yuanhou, after the victory, it is advisable to take advantage of the victory to pursue...... Why waste time with a madman? Wait for the last general to go and kill him! ”

Someone drew a sword and cut down this long-winded man. However, he was stopped by Yuan Zhao waving his hand. It is strange that at this moment his interest in a madman is more important than any military victory.

"Briefly, give me an example of the discovery of the wisdom of your great prophet, so that my generals may be convinced...... Otherwise, the knife in their hand will kill. Hehe! ”

Look at the ignorant human in your eyes and hear the other party's threat. The inheritor of the great prophet from the far western world, straightened his chest and said loudly.

"The Prophet tells us that this earth, in which all mankind coexists, is round!"

Hearing his words, Yuan Zhao laughed, and the others laughed even more. However, the meaning of their laughter is completely different.
