Chapter 454: Pit and Kill the Prisoners of War in the Sabbatical Country

After the 2nd Cavalry Brigade of the Guards Regiment of the Broken Army defeated the 21st Cavalry Brigade and 5 infantry troops of the 21st Regiment of the Rest Kingdom in the west outside Mogute City, Lü Bu only left two cavalry battalions to guard the prisoners, and the other three cavalry battalions were divided into three routes.

In the other three directions outside the city of Mogute, there is an infantry team of 10,000 people of the 21st Army of the Sabbath Country, although the task of these three infantry teams in the siege war is only to contain the strength of the defenders in the city of Mogute, but after attacking the city in the past few days, their losses are not small, plus the main force of its legion has been defeated by the Broken Army, in the face of the imposing cavalry of the Broken Army, these three infantry 10,000 troops were quickly defeated by the cavalry of the Second Cavalry Brigade of the Guards Legion.

In the end, the 2nd Cavalry Brigade of the Guards Regiment of the Broken Army basically wiped out the 21st Army of the Rest Country with less than 5,000 casualties, and of the nearly 5,000 casualties, more than 4,000 were killed.

The 21st Army of the Rest Country originally had two cavalry teams of 10,000 troops and eight infantry teams, totaling more than 100,000 people, but in the few days of attacking Mogute City, it lost about 10,000 people, and of the remaining nearly 90,000 people, more than 50,000 were captured by the Second Cavalry Brigade of the Guards Regiment of the Broken Army, and more than 30,000 people were turned into corpses, and there were less than 2,000 soldiers of the Rest Country who could escape the pursuit of the cavalry of the Broken Army.

Qiu Rui, the captain of the Ninth Infantry Brigade of the Western Regions Legion guarding Mogute City, had not seen Lu Bu before, but it did not hinder Qiu Rui's gratitude to Lu Bu. ”

Lu Bu waved his hand and said: "There is no need for Xie Lu, Lu is also on the order of the lord to support the defenders of the cities of Shakhtinsk Province, and now that the siege of Mogute City has been lifted, then Lu will take his cavalry and rush to the next city!" ”

"General Lu, there is still more than an hour, it should be dark, why don't you rest in Mogu Special City tonight, and then set off for the next city early tomorrow morning, so that Qiu can have a few drinks with General Lu at the wine table."

"Thank you General Qiu for your kindness, but there are still three cities in Shakhtinsk Province that are under siege by the army of the Sabbatinist State, and the military situation is urgent, so I can only wait for General Qiu to drink later!"

"What General Lu said is extremely true, or the military situation is important, it seems that I can only wait for the opportunity to have a few more drinks with General Lu in the future! By the way, do you need someone to prepare something to eat for the brothers of the 2nd Cavalry Brigade of the Guards Regiment? ”

"When we set out from Cilicus City, Lu Mou had already asked his soldiers to carry a lot of dried meat and mare's milk, but there was no need to prepare anything to eat, but the tens of thousands of prisoners captured by the Sabbatical State and the hundreds of wounded of the Second Cavalry Brigade of our Guards Legion would have to trouble General Qiu and the brothers of the Ninth Infantry Brigade of the Western Regions Legion."

"General Lu, rest assured, those tens of thousands of prisoners of the Sabbatical State and the wounded of the Second Cavalry Brigade of the Guards Legion will be handed over to our Ninth Infantry Brigade of the Western Regions Legion!"

After leaving Mogut with the remaining 35,000 cavalry of the 2nd Cavalry Brigade of the Guards Regiment, Lü Bu arrived at the city of Ludisia, the second city in the Shakhtinsk province, which was under siege by the Sabbatinist state, on the morning of the next day.

The Broken Army unit guarding Ludisia City is the Sixth Infantry Brigade of the Guards Corps, the brigade captain is Lu Zhishen, and the brigade captain's deputy general is Deng Yuanjue, both of whom are top generals.

The army of the Sabbatarian that attacked the city of Ludisia was the 23rd Army of the Sabbatarian State, and its establishment was the same as that of the 22nd Army of the Sabbatarian State, with two cavalry teams of 10,000 troops and 8 infantry troops, with a total strength of more than 100,000 people.

The situation of Ludisia City is better than that of Mogute City, although Lu Zhishen and Deng Yuanjue, when the 23rd Army of the Rest Country arrived, also led troops out of the city to give the enemy a dismount, but after finding that the 23rd Army of the Rest Country was not a soft persimmon, with the force of Lu Zhishen and Deng Yuanjue, they took the troops out of the city and quickly returned to the city.

This initiative only brought a loss of 3,000 men to the 6th Infantry Brigade of the Guards Corps, plus 7,000 people lost in a few days of defending the city, when Lü Bu came to Ludisia City with the remaining 35,000 cavalry of the 2nd Cavalry Brigade of the Guards Corps, there were still more than 30,000 people in the 6th Infantry Brigade of the Guards Corps in the city.

The 6th Infantry Brigade of the Guards Regiment was equivalent to the loss of about 10,000 men in exchange for nearly 20,000 casualties of the 23rd Army Corps of the Sabbath.

Because Lu Bu brought the troops very quickly, so that the news of Mogute City had not yet come, and the 23rd Army Corps of the Rest Country did not know that the 22nd Legion that attacked Mogute City was almost completely annihilated, so the appearance of the 2nd Cavalry Brigade of the Guards Legion, although the generals of the 23rd Cavalry Brigade of the Rest Country were a little surprised, but the 23rd Legion of the Rest Country still mobilized two cavalry teams of 10,000 people, and fearlessly faced the more than 35,000 cavalry of the 2nd Cavalry Brigade of the Guards Legion.

As a result, what happened in the west outside Mogute City was repeated again, the two cavalry of the 23rd Army of the Rest Country were quickly defeated by the 2nd Cavalry Brigade of the Guards Regiment of the Broken Army, and the cavalry of the Rest Country that fled was driven by the cavalry of the Broken Army to the infantry battle formation of the 23rd Army of the Rest Country......

The final fate of the 23rd Army of the Sabbath Country was much stronger than that of the 22nd Army Corps of the Sabbath Country, only two cavalry and four infantry of the 23rd Army of the Sabbath Country were completely defeated, and the remaining four infantry troops of the 10,000 troops fought and retreated, and finally relied on a mountainous terrain to successfully get rid of the pursuit of the Second Cavalry Brigade of the Guards Regiment of the Broken Army.

However, after the commander of the 23rd Army of the Sabbatical Legion, Goodes, counted the number of troops, he found that the four infantry teams of 10,000 men and several other 10,000 troops were only a little more than 20,000 men.

The 2nd Cavalry Brigade of the Guards Corps of the Breakers suffered nearly 5,000 casualties here in Ludisia, but achieved the record of killing 20,000 and capturing 40,000.

Later, Lü Bu did not stay long in Ludisia City, and after handing over the prisoners and his own wounded to the Sixth Infantry Brigade of the Guards Regiment guarding Ludisia City, Lü Bu took more than 30,000 cavalry under his command and continued to rush to the next city that was being besieged by the Sabbath State.

However, on the afternoon of June 7, Lü Bu arrived at Gadamai, another city in Shakhtinsk Province, with 30,000 cavalry, but found that the troops besieging Gadamai had retreated.

It turned out that the commander of the 23rd Legion of the Sabbatical Country, Guds, had already passed the news that his legion had been severely damaged by hundreds of thousands of cavalry of the Broken Army outside the city of Ludisia to the Marquis of Obaid, the commander of the Sabbath Nation, who was staying in the city of Gaqim, and the 6th Legion of the Sabbath Country was also in the city of Gaqim at this time.

When the commander of the Sabbation Army, Marquis Obaid, heard that there were more than 100,000 cavalry of the Broken Army in Shakhtinsk Province, he immediately ordered several other Sabbatarian legions to stop the siege and approach the city of Gaqim as soon as possible.

Huhesa Province is the main battlefield of the war between the two sides, and now the army of the Rest of the country has forced the army of the Rest of the country to mobilize more than 100,000 cavalry into the province of Shakhtinsk, the army of the country of peace has overfulfilled the task, and then as long as the army of the country can contain the cavalry of the hundreds of thousands of prisoners in the province of Shakhtinsk, it is another great achievement.

On the evening of June 9, in a study room in the city lord's mansion of Gadamai City, Shakhtinsk Province, Lu Bu looked at a piece of information from the Heishuitai in his hand, and his anger grew bigger and bigger, and he suddenly smashed the bookcase in front of him with his fist.

At this time, in the study, there was also Captain Fang Jie of the Second Cavalry Brigade of the Guards Legion, as well as Brigade Captain Yu Tai and Captain Xie Qingyuan of the Ninth Infantry Brigade of the Western Regions Legion, Yu Tai was a general under Wang Qing in the Water Margin, with a force value of 87 points, Xie Qingyuan was a second-rate military general during the Sui Dynasty, with a force value of 78 points, and the Ninth Infantry Brigade of the Western Regions Army was the unit that originally guarded Gardamai City.

Seeing Lu Bu's angry appearance, Yu Tai hurriedly asked, "General Lu, what news has come from Heishuitai?" ”

Lu Bu gritted his teeth and said: "Heishuitai got the exact news from the city of Gaqim that was captured by the army of the Rest Country, and the nearly 20,000 soldiers of the 17th Infantry Brigade of the Guards Regiment who surrendered to the army of the Rest Country in the city of Rest have all been beheaded by the people of the Rest Country!" ”

Lu Bu's words made Fang Jie, Yu Tai and Xie Qingyuan all stand up at once, and everyone's faces showed anger.

"It's so deceitful! The rest must not be spared! General Lu, what do you say? Yu Tai shouted angrily.

Liu Ji, who was in Cilisi City, the capital of Huhesa Province, learned of Lü Bu's brilliant results, and immediately asked Lü Bu to command all the troops of the Broken Army in Shakhtinsk Province, that is to say, the eight infantry brigades in Shakhtinsk Province, including the 17th Infantry Brigade of the Guards Corps with less than 4,000 men left, will be temporarily under Lü Bu's command.

Fang Jie followed and said: "Although the nearly 20,000 soldiers of the 17th Infantry Brigade of the Guards Regiment are basically the surrenders of the Red Turban Army, they are also the soldiers of our Broken Army, and they are also the people of our Jin Kingdom. ”

Xie Qingyuan also said: "Blood for blood, tooth for tooth!" ”

Lu Bu's eyes flashed with a fierce light and said, "Do the people of Anxia think they have captives? Immediately give an order to General Qiu of Mogute City and General Lu of Ludisia City to hand over the prisoners of war of the Second Cavalry Brigade of our Guards Regiment to them, and kill all of them, leaving not a single one! ”

Hearing that Lu Bu was going to kill the prisoners of war of the Rest Country, Fang Jie, Yu Tai and Xie Qingyuan looked at each other, Fang Jie hesitated for a moment and asked: "General Lu, the Second Cavalry Brigade of our Guards Regiment is in Mogute City and Ludisia City, but we have captured a total of more than 90,000 prisoners of war from the Rest Country, and we want to kill all these more than 90,000 prisoners of war from the Rest Country, do you want to ask the lord for instructions first?" ”

Lu Bu waved his hand and said: "The notoriety of killing prisoners of war can be borne by me Lu Bu alone, there is no need to report this matter to the lord, so as to avoid the lord's embarrassment, and Lu Bu will ask the lord for guilt afterwards!" ”

Yu Tai laughed at this time: "General Lu, such an opportunity to become famous, how can you let yourself monopolize it, if the lord blames it, Lao Yu is willing to bear it with General Lu!" ”

Xie Qingyuan hurriedly said: "Such a good thing, I can't miss Xie Qingyuan, Xie is also willing to bear the notoriety of killing prisoners of war, blood for blood, tooth for tooth, so that it is happy!" ”

Fang Jie clasped his fists at Lu Bu and said: "It's still General Lu's thoughtfulness, the notoriety of killing prisoners of war must not be involved with the lord, my Fang Jie is willing to advance and retreat with General Lu, General Xu, and General Xie!" ”

When Lu Bu heard the words of the three of them, he couldn't help but show a smile on his face, "Since the lord appointed Lu to command all the troops in Shakhtinsk Province, the notoriety of killing prisoners of war must be borne by Lu alone, and Lu Bu can't let the soldiers of the Broken Army die in vain!" ”

Regarding Lu Bukeng's order to kill the prisoners of war of the Rest Country, Qiu Rui, the brigade captain of the Ninth Infantry Brigade of the Western Regions Legion, and Lu Zhishen, the brigade captain of the Sixth Infantry Brigade of the Guards Regiment, did not hesitate at all, and immediately sent troops to escort the prisoners of war of the Rest Country and dug a number of large pits, nominally to bury the soldiers of the Rest Country who died in the battle, but after the big pit was dug, tens of thousands of prisoners of war of the Rest Country were forcibly driven into the pit, and then the soldiers of the Broken Army began to fill the pit with soil......

At the same time, Liu Ji received the news that the army of the Rest of the State had slaughtered nearly 20,000 captured soldiers of the 17th Infantry Brigade of the Guards Regiment and that Lü Bukeng had killed more than 90,000 prisoners of war of the Rest of the Country.

"Smack-" Liu Ji slapped the table in front of him fiercely and shouted, "Okay! Good kill! If the Sabbatarians dare to slaughter the 20,000 soldiers captured by our Breaker Army, our Breaker Army will dare to trap and kill 90,000 of their prisoners! ”

At this time, Xun Yu hesitated for a moment and asked, "Lord, about General Lu Bu's plea......

Before Zhang Liang finished speaking, he was interrupted by Liu Ji, "Please? What sin please? Lu Bu killed 90,000 prisoners of war in the Sabbatarian Nation in order to seek justice for the nearly 20,000 captured soldiers of the 17th Infantry Brigade of the Guards Regiment. ”

Liu Ji's words made many generals of the Broken Army breathe a sigh of relief, although Lu Bu's pit killing of prisoners of war in the Sabbatical State this time was an unauthorized proposition, and he did not report to Liu Ji before, but Lu Bu's approach was appreciated by all the generals, not to mention that Lu Bu did not report to Liu Ji, and Liu Ji could avoid being tainted with the notoriety of killing prisoners of war.
