With Liu Yang's 100,000 army, Su Yun is now strong and strong, and Wang Lang recalled the troops from all over the country in order to keep Handan, so there was almost no decent resistance on the way south, and the army soon drove to a place more than sixty miles outside Handan. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

The soldiers were gearing up one by one, but Su Yun gave the order to camp on the spot.

It's not that he doesn't want to fight quickly, but the defenders in Handan City have reached 200,000, which is equivalent to Su Yun's strength, and Wang Lang has also forcibly recruited nearly 100,000 homeless people and let them garrison outside the city, although these people have no combat effectiveness, but they are enough as cannon fodder.

It's not easy to fight, and it's not a way to encircle, then Wang Lang has been operating in Handan for many years, and there is no problem with the grain and grass reserves for half a year, Su Yun can't afford to wait.

Fortunately, he already has a backhand.

It didn't take long for the battle report to come from the south, and the 100,000 soldiers led by Xie Gong also fought outside Handan City, facing them across the city.

That night, Xie Bow led several generals to Su Yun's camp.

This person Su Yun met when he was in Wancheng, he has always been silent in the court, and he is not particularly biased towards any camp, in terms of personality, he should be the same kind of person as Zhu Kun, and he is only loyal to the Han family.

"Wu Xinhou, I can't imagine that in just a few months, you have laid this upside down in Hebei, which is really admirable." Xie bowed all the way over, and when he saw Su Yun's army neatly and neatly, he was moved.

"Shang Shu smiled, they all took advantage of the trend and ate with their mouths." Su Yun led them into the tent and nodded to Jia Fu and Cen Peng, who were following behind Xie Gong.

Xie Bow didn't think too much, and as soon as he sat down, he said: "I came this time, I must have known the intention of Wu Xinhou, Handan City is also one of the best fortified cities in Hebei, and now the garrison is even tighter, this time His Majesty only transferred 100,000 troops over, even if you add your military strength, there is still no chance of victory if you attack strongly, why don't we combine our two armies to make a siege strategy?" ”

"No." Su Yun shook his head, what he lacked most was time, and it was impossible to agree, "If it is in other places, besieging the city is indeed the safest method, but Hebei is seriously troubled, and several peasant armies such as Qingli and You Lai are still wandering around, adding up to nearly 300,000, if it drags on in Handan for too long, maybe something will happen, and I am afraid it will be difficult to clean it up at that time." He had already thought of this reason and said it directly.

Xie bowed and was silent for a moment, feeling that what Su Yun said did make some sense, "But in the current situation, is there any other way than to besiege the city?" ”

"Attack the heart." Su Yun explained the plan in detail, and hesitated a little after listening to it, "This plan is indeed a bit ingenious, but it is a little immoral, right?" ”

"Compared with the tens of millions of people in Hebei, it should be clear which is more important than the other." Su Yun said with a smile.

Cen Peng and Jia Fu also nodded in agreement, and Xie Gong finally made up his mind, "Okay, in order to end the war as soon as possible, I can't do much." ”

Watching Xie Bow leave, Su Yun sighed, to be honest, he still admires this person, Xie Bow is different from Wang Kuang and others, the starting point of doing things is not to seek personal interests, just to be loyal, but this is also the saddest thing about him, such a person does not enter, it is impossible to win it over, so he is destined to become an enemy, just like what Su Yun just said is the same reason, which is more important than this time and space and his bow? The answer is clear.

If you want to say that the most innocent people in this war must belong to those displaced people who were forcibly conscripted, these people dragged their families and left their homes for a bowl of rice, but they were inexplicably arrested as cannon fodder.

These people obviously had this kind of awareness, and they gathered outside Handan like walking corpses, holding weapons such as sticks and stones in their hands, and the prison guards sent by Wang Lang were guarding behind them.

Some people will definitely say that there are so many of them, dozens of times the number of prison guards, as long as they escape, I am afraid that they will not be able to stop them, theoretically, but human nature often cannot be reasoned with normal at such times.

A person may be able to grit his teeth and fight hard when he encounters danger, but a group of people will often only be silent when they encounter danger, everyone wants to run, but no one is far from being the first bird, because the first person to run must die, even if there is a glimmer of hope for life, they would rather be honest and wait for a gamble.

Just like the tragedy that happened in Nanjing City a thousand years later, tens of thousands of soldiers who still had the strength to fight actually lined up to wait for the execution ground, such a grotesque thing is not uncommon in history.

As a liberal arts student, Su Yun naturally understands these things, and what he has to do now is to awaken the resistance of these homeless people.

His plan was simple, but it seemed a little cruel.

In the past few days, the vicinity of Handan is full of soldiers, and their task is very simple, that is, to arrest the old, weak, women and children everywhere and escort them all to the vicinity of the battlefield.

Early one morning, a spectacle appeared outside the city of Handan, where hundreds of thousands of old and weak women and children were surrounded by soldiers armed with weapons.

If it was embattled that made the overlord of Western Chu collapse back then, then now it is crying on all sides.

Most of these old and weak women and children are the families of those displaced people who were forcibly conscripted by Wang Lang, and they didn't care about screening in such a short time, and all those caught were rushed forward.

Seeing that these people did not know what was going on at first, the outcasts were reprimanded by the prison guards and took up their weapons and prepared to fight, but as they got closer and closer, and finally saw their faces, the commotion began.

"Two dogs! Come back soon! If we don't come back, our son will die! ”

"Iron pillars! Mother misses you! There you are! ”

"Daddy! I'm a leftover! ”

……

Under the persecution of the soldiers, these old and weak women and children began to call out the names of their relatives, and the scene of these hundreds of thousands of people crying together was unprecedented.

"How so! Mother! Where are you! A rascal heard a familiar voice, his lifeless eyes became agitated, and he threw down his weapon and rushed outside.

"Whoosh!"

The arrow pierced his heart in an instant.

"There is no mercy for those who escape!"

The cold voice of the overseer came, but the effect was not great, and more and more people began to move, two, three, and constantly people rushed out of the line and ran towards the opposite side.

The prison guards began to panic, they shouted and began to slash and kill the homeless people in the ranks, which countered and provoked the ferocity of the homeless people even more, and the chaos was out of control.

The outcasts fled in sporadic ways to massive collapses, and some of the bold ones even turned around and slaughtered the hateful prison guards.

Human nature is like this, they can be lucky about their own life and death, but they can't watch their relatives die, the resistance in their hearts is completely stimulated, and even becomes extremely tyrannical.

Seeing the chaos intensifying, Su Yun immediately ordered the soldiers escorting the women and children to retreat, and it didn't take long for the displaced people who were running faster to rush over and look for their relatives in the crowd.

The outside of Handan City was full of people, and the prison army soon collapsed, and once surrounded by the homeless, it was definitely a terrible death, and became a scapegoat for the homeless people to vent.

The army in the city also found something unusual, bows and arrows rained down, and countless casualties were immediately killed and wounded outside the city, but the ferocity of the displaced people had been stimulated, and they were not afraid of death at all, and actually turned around and began to attack the city gate.

Only a few can find their relatives, and most of them are alone, infected by chaotic emotions, and they can't take care of anything.

Those who wanted to flee had almost fled, the old and weak women and children also ran away crying, and there were still tens of thousands of red-eyed homeless people left outside the city, and Su Yun's face sank like water and gave the order to attack.
