Chapter 1023: The Aftermath (Part II)

The Goguryeo people who were driven away were finally left behind, and some of the rolling logs that had fallen on the ground outside the city were brought back, and then a cauldron was erected under the city walls and water was boiled.

Such behavior made countless Goguryeo people hate Li Chengqian to the core, but also have a deep fear, hundreds of people crying while carrying logs, and some are cursing Yu Rongchang and Kim Xiangdong for being incompetent.

Almost everyone knows that the end of digging a pit outside the city is to be buried alive, but fortunately it is winter, and it is not easy to dig a pit in this season, so even if you die, you can wait until many days later, and you will not die immediately.

But boiling water is different, who knows if the prince of the Tang Dynasty has the habit of eating people, and whether boiling so much boiling water will be used to cook people! In case it is used for boiling, it means that after the water is boiled, these people who carry water and chop firewood will soon die in Huangquan, and the death method is extremely tragic.

The Goguryeo people were frightened, Li Siwen and others were also frightened, and even Duan Zhan, a war maniac who regarded human life as a mustard, came to Li Chengqian's side.

"Gao Ming, do you want to think about it again? Although those grandsons are bad, they can be buried even if they are buried, so there is no need to be so ruthless, right? ”

"Yes, Gao Ming, even if there is a big hatred, this person is as dead as a lamp, there is no need to be so ruthless, this is not good for your reputation."

"My little ancestor, don't we toss it? If you look at those Goguryeo people and annoy them, I'll arrange for someone to cut them all down now, and we can't do cannibalism. ”

As friends and subordinates, Li Siwen, Duan Zhan, Cheng Chumo and others tried their best to get Li Chengqian to dispel the idea of boiling water, and asked Li Chengqian, who was thinking about what to do next, in a daze: "What are you talking about?" Who's going to eat people? ”

"You, if you don't eat people, what are you boiling water for?" As Li Chengqian's brother-in-law, Cheng Chumo naturally has the right to say this about him.

"Lao Tzu boils water just to eat people? So are you digging birds just to? Anyway, after what Cheng Chumo and the others said, Li Chengqian rolled his eyes helplessly.

"What does this have to do with me Lao Cheng, Lao Cheng digs birds to go to the thatched house." Cheng Chumo glanced at Li Chengqian with disdain, as if he was saying that he had diverted the topic.

"Get out of here, organize defense, arrange for the soldiers to rest, we still have a battle to fight tomorrow, if there is really nothing to do, go and see the wounded, see if there are any difficulties that need to be solved by the medical soldiers, don't bother Lao Tzu!"

Li Chengqian didn't bother to explain what 'disinfection' was to these bastards, and pushed them out of his room.

"It's over, it's over, Gao Ming should be completely crazy now, right?" Leaving Li Chengqian's room, Cheng Chumo sat down dejectedly.

Duan Zan stood in place for a while, snorted fiercely, as if he had made a lot of determination: "No, even if Lao Tzu disobeys orders, he must not let this happen, do you have the courage to stop this matter with me?" Lao Tzu doesn't force it, he wants to go with Lao Tzu, and Lao Tzu who doesn't want to go doesn't force you. ”

"What dare you dare, Gao Ming is your friend or not my friend? He's still my brother-in-law! Cheng Chumo jumped up from the ground, stared at a pair of bull's eyes and said angrily.

"Bang" "Shut up Lao Tzu!" Li Chengqian in the room finally couldn't bear it anymore, and threw out the big porcelain bowl in his hand to these guys who were holding ignorance as fun.

"Brother, what are you doing? Boiling water is boiling bandages, and after boiling, it is used for those wounded soldiers, what does it have to do with cannibalism, what should I do? Don't make a mess here! Cheng Lin stopped Li Chengqian, walked out of the room, dragged Cheng Chumo to the side, and muttered quietly.

"What is a bandage? Can you eat it? Based on the excellent genes of the Chinese people, when Cheng Chumo heard the bandage, the first thing that came to Cheng Chumo's mind was whether he could eat it.

"What to eat, it's for the wounded to be bandaged. Oh, why are you talking so much, take them and hurry up, don't make a mess here, let's go! Cheng Lin also had no tricks for his eldest brother, and simply said what a bandage was in his head, and then beat Cheng Chumo away.

"Sent away?" When Cheng Lin returned to the room, Li Chengqian, who was in deep thought, raised his head and asked.

"Well, a few of them are too disagreeable, Brother Prince, when you go back and wait for Anshi City to finish, you must teach them a good lesson." Cheng Lin pouted.

"Alright, you don't have to cover for them!" Li Chengqian took a deep breath: "Your brother is also kind, I know this." ”

"Thank you, Brother Prince!" Cheng Lin saw that Li Chengqian was not really angry, and a smile appeared on his face, but he quickly frowned again: "Brother Prince, those, those Goguryeo commoners......"

"You don't need to say this, it's not that I don't want to let them go, it's just that in order for the future battle to be smoother, this thing must be done, and it must be done thoroughly." Li Chengqian waved his hand to interrupt Cheng Lin's words.

Of course, he knew what Cheng Lin was going to say, but considering the situation on the battlefield in the future, if he easily let these Goguryeo people leave, then the next city would inevitably resist with all its might.

Anyway, even if the war is defeated, there will be no responsibility, and when the time comes, it will still be what to do, and after there are no worries, it will only make Goguryeo's resistance more tenacious. Therefore, the only way to kill is to kill until the Goguryeo people tremble when they hear the Tang army, and only in this way can the casualties of the Liaodong Army be reduced.

Mistakes that don't have to pay a price will always be put at risk, and it is only when the cost of making a mistake is unbearable that people will realize the horror of making a mistake.

This is what Li Chengqian learned through this battle, so even though he was not a particularly murderous person, he had to make such a killing order in the end.

What a simple truth it is that dead friends don't die poor, but if you want to really understand it, the price you need to pay is often unbearable.

Li Chengqian can almost imagine what kind of hat he will wear when the news is transmitted back to Chang'an, executioner? Butcher? Maybe it's worse than that. But in order to make fewer deaths for his subordinates, the executioner should be the executioner, after all, it was the Goguryeo people who died, not the Tang people.

After having such a determination, Li Chengqian's originally hesitant face finally showed a smile, looked at Yang Yuxin and Ye Mei standing behind him, and said, "You two are familiar with the situation in the city, right?" How about taking the main palace to the castle lord's mansion to see? ”
