Chapter 282: One Way of Thinking

Lu Peng and Tian Feng stood under the tall city walls of Yuyang City, facing the countless defenders in the city, discussing what method to use to take Yuyang at the least cost, and completely control Yuyang in their own hands.

"If a complete Yuyang City is attacked by the combined army, judging from the comparison of the strength of the two sides, the area we occupy will be very small, let alone the entire occupation of Yuyang County, so we can simply use the fire oil bomb in our hands to give him a jade stone to burn, burn the entire Yuyang County into a white ground, so that all the people who occupy it will not have any benefit, and this city may of course become ours." Tian Feng cautiously suggested.

Shocked, absolutely shocked, this is even more vicious than Jia Xu, the most vicious strategist of the Three Kingdoms.

With his hands behind his back and looking at the tall Yuyang County, Lu Peng asked lightly: "Sir, don't you feel that it hurts the heavens?" "This is different from the original Quanzhou, where there were almost no people, and this Yuyang is now the so-called "capital" of the traitor Zhang Ju, where there are hundreds of officials and their families, as well as their domestic slaves, servants, and Shunmin.

Tian Feng saw that although Lu Peng blamed himself, there was no sense of blame in his tone, so his heart relaxed and continued to say his thoughts.

"I think it's worth it to give up a hundred lives in exchange for a thousand, even if God punishes me in the future, I can be justified."

Lu Peng let out a long sigh, but he didn't say anything, and continued to listen to Tian Feng.

"Yuyang County, originally occupied by Zhang Ju and Wuhuan people, according to the scene after we were stationed in Quanzhou, there will not be too many Han people left in the city, basically those who can escape have fled, and those who can be killed have been killed, and the remaining people, I dare not say that they are all the kind of traitors you said, but they will definitely go not far first, kill them, I don't think I am doing evil, but I think I am avenging the Han people who died unjustly."

Tian Feng was deeply influenced by the Confucian idea of loyalty to the monarch and patriotism, and he hated rebellion, and in his eyes, the riots were due to the factors of official coercion and rebellion, which was understandable, sympathetic and forgivable.

But rebellion is greedy and evil, fatherless and kingless, and rebellious, and it is absolutely unforgivable.

This line of thinking, Lu Peng thinks that it is right, in the places occupied by the Wuhuan people, the Han people who can survive dare not say that he is all traitors, but they must not deny their bad mentality of servility and humility! At this point, they are innocent.

Although Lu Peng has such a mentality, which is a bit excessive, but at this time, no one will accuse him.

Looking at the heroes of the world, which one is not stepping on the white bones of innocent people? Kindness, in this troubled world, is simply a suicidal truth.

"And if we occupy Yuyang, we will face the Wuhuan people on the grassland in the future, then this city will become an outpost of the Han nationality and the grassland people, and in the city, there is a huge Han population left, which is a kind of suffering for them, and a burden to the occupiers, such as us."

Lu Peng turned his head, looked at Tian Feng, and asked lightly again, "What do you say?" ”

Tian Feng saw that his lord did not oppose his opinions, so he was more assured and boldly said all his planning ideas.

If there are a large number of innocent people in the city, once the enemy besieges the city, then as the army defending the city, in order to morally protect these civilians, it is necessary to defend the city.

Lu Peng nodded, such examples have appeared countless times in later generations, and he can actually understand better than Tian Feng.

"Another point is that once the two armies go to war, the people in the city will not only not be able to help the defenders defend the city, but will become a drag on the defenders. Because the people in the city could not really participate in the defense of the city, but directly consumed all the materials in the city, so the subordinates believed that whether it was now and in the future, all the castles along the border line would turn them into large military camps, and they would definitely not be the habitat of the people! Once war breaks out, our soldiers guarding these cities can rely on the walls to resist the enemy's attack, but at the same time, they can also abandon the city at any time and go to another place without worrying about the future. ”

Then he said bitterly: "I have read through all the previous wars between our Han people and foreign races, often because they are righteous, but countless soldiers who could have been transferred to other places have died innocently, which is actually a kind of sadness. ”

"At the same time, it is precisely because of this kind of righteousness that countless innocent people have died tragically in this war after war, which has consumed the vitality of our entire Han nation in vain."

Lu Peng raised his face to look at the sky, and then closed his eyes, in the history he knew best, the Manchu Qing Dynasty went south, the Battle of Jinan, the Ten Days of Yangzhou, the Three Massacres of Jiading, and all kinds of massacres of the Han nation, in fact, it was really as Tian Feng said, it was those soldiers who resisted, intentionally or unintentionally, coerced the people, if the people of Yangzhou were evacuated early, the soldiers had no worries, and the people could not be killed, is it better?

Suddenly, my head flashed, and I remembered the Nanjing Massacre in the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression and the later Battle of Changde.

Although there were various reasons for the Nanjing Massacre, in fact, the bigger reason was that the people in Nanjing were not evacuated in time.

And the battle of Changde, the general of the guard, evacuated the people in Changde early, and as a result, with the strength of an army, to defend Changde, in the end there was only an erected chimney in the city of Changde, and there was no wall to stand on, although tens of thousands of heroes were killed in the battle, but there were no casualties among the people, and a lone army, against tens of thousands of Japanese troops for more than a month, the two were compared, Tian Feng was quite right.

"Sir's proposal is very right, we will burn this Yuyang City to a white ground, and after we take over, we will transform it into a forward position facing foreign invasions, a large military camp."

Looking at the trebuchets in front of him, Lu Peng instructed the Jinyi guards beside him: "You immediately order someone to return to the Savage Valley to find Wu Tao, and I will limit him to deliver me another 200 trebuchets within ten days, no less than 10,000 fire oil bombs." ”

He called another Jinyi guard: "You go to Pinggu immediately, mobilize Pan Feng's army too, and prepare to carry out projection at the West Gate." ”

Everyone imagined that nearly 300 catapults would throw tens of thousands of fire oil eggs into Yuyang City day and night, what a tragic and spectacular scene.
