Chapter 136: Humanity

Looking at the corpses of the Haisha Gang minions under the city, all exposed in the wilderness, Xiang Luyang said to Zhou Tiezhu: "Order someone to send a letter to the Haisha Gang, and ask them to send two hundred people over to transport all these corpses back and bury them." ”

"On such a hot day, these corpses are placed here, and they don't have to wait until it gets dark, they will start to decompose."

After opening the city gate, riding a war horse and going straight to the camp of the Haisha Gang, and passing the message to Hai Lie, Hai Lie felt very surprised, he didn't expect Xiang Luyang to let his people collect the corpses, you know, if these corpses are used as bait or obstacles, the blow to the morale of their own side is absolutely huge, although I don't understand what Xiang Luyang thinks, but Hai Lie still arranged two hundred people to collect the corpses.

These people who went to collect the corpses were all covered with white cloths on their heads, and they did not carry any weapons on their bodies, which Xiang Luyang had explained in advance.

These people started from the outermost part and went all the way to the bottom of the city wall, and they did not encounter any attacks, until after collecting all the corpses, the person who took the lead kowtowed to Xiang Luyang on the city wall, and did not speak, and left with his men and those charred corpses.

At the head of the city, Shen Aotian asked Xiang Luyang puzzled, "These corpses are still useful to us, why do you want them to take them back?" ”

Xiang Luyang said: "We can end their lives, but we can't trample on their dignity, do you know why we have such a small number of troops, facing more than 20,000 Haisha Gangs, and the people of Dengzhou City still support us?" ”

"Why?" At this time, Shen Aotian's heart really wanted to know how Xiang Luyang did it.

Xiang Luyang said: "Actually, the reason is very simple, although we may not be able to save their lives, but we let them know what dignity is. ”

"In my hometown, there are countless people who have sacrificed their lives for the sake of being able to live with more dignity, in order to let their descendants live a life that is no longer enslaved and discriminated against."

"Although we ended the lives of those below today, we must not trample on their dignity, otherwise what is the difference between us and the people of the Haisha Gang?"

After listening to Xiang Luyang's words, Shen Aotian nodded heavily, he had a deep understanding of dignity, although he had martial arts, but in the face of his father's injustice, he could only use extreme measures in the end, and there was no way to avenge his father according to normal channels, this kind of humiliation, people who have not experienced it personally, it is difficult to understand.

On this day, after the people of the Haisha Gang collected the corpses, they did not attack the city again, Xiang Luyang and the others, from noon until dusk, until the sun set, everyone began to take turns to wait on the city wall, and the others went back to the city to rest.

After returning to Zhouya, Zhou Tiezhu has counted the detailed losses, today the city defense army sacrificed one hundred and four people, injured more than two hundred, the rolling wood and stones in the city, has been consumed more than half, and there is not much fire oil left, looking at the list handed over by Zhou Tiezhu, Xiang Luyang thought for a while and said: "Now the shape is getting more and more severe, although we have hit the Haisha Gang harder today, but this heavy blow is not enough to hurt their vitality, on the contrary, it will stimulate their revenge, tomorrow's war, will be more severe, Our current material reserves, at most can only last tomorrow one day, after tomorrow, we will face the biggest test ever, success is to stand firm, defeat is to abandon the previous efforts, so I hope everyone has a psychological preparation, once Dengzhou is lost, our Qiē will be zero, and even lose our lives. ”

Wu Ran said: "Since the day we joined the army, we have been ready to sacrifice, so boss, don't worry about it, what do you want to do, just tell the truth." ”

As soon as Wu Ran's words fell, Marco also followed: "Yes, boss, you can tell me how to arrange the next step, and the brothers will listen to you." ”

Xiang Luyang said: "I have discussed with Squad Leader Luo just now, if tomorrow's battle is really as we expected, tomorrow night, a few of us will bring equipment and go to the Haisha Gang to carry out the beheading operation." ”

Glancing at Luoqiushui and Shen Aotian, Xiang Luyang continued: "Tomorrow night, when we start the beheading operation, the command of the city will be fully responsible for the two of you, if we can't return on the third watch, you will organize the people of Dengzhou City to break through, and those who are willing to follow, regardless of men, women and children, will give them all the treasury and silver of the Zhou Ya, this is the only thing we can leave to them." ”

Shen Aotian said: "Let Wu Ran and Qiushui stay, I'll go with you, there are people here to command, I can help somewhat." ”

Xiang Luyang patted Shen Aotian on the shoulder and said: "Aotian, you are the highest martial artist among our people, and you will have to rely on you to train the troops in the future, so you can't go with us, your task tomorrow is to take care of Wu Ran and Qiushui and leave some seeds for us people." ”

Shen Aotian still wanted to say something, but Luo Tianwu next to him said: "Aotian, you just listen to Lu Yang, he did this, not only for you, but also for the future, besides, if the battle situation changes tomorrow, we don't need to carry out any decapitation operations, it is just the worst plan." ”

That night, the camp of the Haisha Gang was all shrouded in pessimism, and more than 20,000 people attacked the state city, losing nearly 4,000 people in one day, which was an astronomical number for these Jianghu people.

They are not a regular army, it is normal for tens of thousands of people to die in a war, or even hundreds of thousands of people, they are gangs of rivers and lakes, they are all ordinary people gathered together, before yesterday, war was still a very distant thing for them, but today, they have personally experienced a war that is close to slaughter, and the side that was slaughtered is still themselves.

Hai Lie in the tent, listening to the sighs one after another outside, his heart was also very uncomfortable, these people were his brothers, he was the children of his Haisha Gang, he didn't feel anything in normal times, but once he lost it, he still felt a little unbearable in his heart.

After sorting out his mood, Hai Lie said to Pang Wanli beside him: "You send someone to inform Huang Junshan and tell him that if the siege machine does not reach my camp within three days, our people will no longer attack Dengzhou City, but all of them will be broken into pieces and return to Jinan Mansion, so that he can do his own thing." ”

Pang Wanli said: "Are we changing the way we put it mildly? ”

Hai Lie said: "That's it, he Huang Junshan doesn't make a contribution, he still wants to listen to good words, all the good things are his own, and you sue him, if you don't do what I say, even if I don't want Tian'er's life, I have to ask him for justice Huang Junshan." ”

When Huang Junshan received Hai Lie's letter, he only said two words, "Piff." ”
