Even if he didn't have to listen to Gao Chu say this, Li Chongjiu knew that the morale of the enemy troops under the city was now gone.

Li Chongjiu said at the moment: "Send someone to shout to the thieves, saying that the court is a last resort, and they can't bear to kill more, so they allow the thieves to go to the city to shelter the injured and let them live." ”

"Master Hou, this is to let the tiger return to the mountain, if the thief recovers from his injury, and has the strength to resume the war, and then attack the city, it is more important to let the thief survive, and in the future, he will be lucky, and he will be more fearless in chaos. Master Hou, you must not have the kindness of a woman! Gao Chu hurriedly said.

When Li Chongjiu heard this, he glanced at Gao Chu.

Gao Chu's face turned pale, and he knelt down with a puff at the moment, and said: "Master Hou, if you lose your words in the next moment, please ask Master Hou to punish the crime." ”

Li Chongjiu helped Gao Chu up.

It is no wonder that most of the counties in the imperial court are strict in their efforts to exterminate the thieves who have emerged, so as to set an example for them.

For example, not long ago, in order to pacify the gangsters of Jingpantuo and Chai Baochang in Jiangjun, Fan Zigai killed all the thieves when he encountered them, burned down the village dock, and even those who surrendered were killed by the old and the young, killing tens of thousands of people within half a month, but unfortunately he still could not pacify Hedong.

As for another person who became famous for counterinsurgency two years ago, Wang Shichong, a fierce general of the Great Sui, led the Huainan Army to suppress Liu Yuanjin and others.

In order to avoid future troubles, Wang Shichong fraudulently allowed the enemy army to surrender, and then treacherously killed more than 30,000 people, so Wang Shichong was promoted to Jiangdu Tongshou.

Although the thieves were forced to cause trouble, it is understandable, but the damage to the county is unimaginable, and it is ten times more than the oppression of the imperial court.

The officers and soldiers never showed mercy when they surrounded and suppressed the thieves, and even the prisoners were killed together, which was not cruel, and there was really no extra food supply.

The price of rice in Guanzhong is hard to find, and the bandits in Hedong, Shanxi Province have not recovered, and the fields are also unharvested.

Deal with these thieves, lock them up, the court has no surplus food to support, put them back, these people have been hungry for a few days, forced by life, and have to be thieves again, so they have to kill them, so as not to be enemies again next time.

As a modern person, Li Chongjiu has been in China for 3,000 years, and the world will be divided for a long time, and it will be divided for a long time. Several uprisings from below to overthrow the upper strata have caused unprecedented damage to society.

The Yellow Turban of the Han Dynasty, the Yellow Nest of the Tang Dynasty, and the Li Zicheng of the Ming Dynasty.

On the occasion of the Sui and Tang dynasties, the rebellion of the thirty-six anti-kings knocked the population of the Great Sui Dynasty from the peak to the bottom, and even the later Zhenguan Dynasty did not complete the restoration to the most prosperous era.

Li Chongjiu smiled at Gao Chu and said: "It's not that I want to be a saint, Gao Brigade can be seen from the high brigade rate, it takes two or three people to care for a wounded, if you let these people go back, firstly, it will show the tolerance of the imperial court, and secondly, it will also exhaust the enemy's manpower." ”

Gao Chu suddenly looked at Li Chongjiu again, but he felt that this Hou Ye was not very kind and liked to play tricks.

At that moment, Li Chongjiu sent people to shout at the head of the city to allow the thieves to heal the wounded in the city, and he would never obstruct it, and the thieves under the city couldn't help but be suspicious when they heard it.

Soon after, a group of ten thieves tentatively came to the city to treat the wounded. During the treatment, the officers and soldiers really did not commit any crimes, and they were allowed to carry the wounded away.

In this way, the thieves were relieved, and more thieves came to the city to carry the wounded, and lifted more than 100 people back in one breath.

After returning more than 100 wounded people to the army, a general in iron armor who was a member of the former army of the thieves rode out on horseback, hugged his fists to the city and said: "Champion Hou Gaoyi, Zhao has thanked his brothers here." ”

Li Chongjiu stood at the head of the city and replied: "You are all forced to be helpless, this is a thief, as a parent official, I can't bear to see this, you better settle down early, and fight again tomorrow." ”

The general on the other side wearing iron armor said angrily: "If the court is all marquis, such a good official, why worry about the people of the Quartet rebelling." ”

At that moment, the general clenched his fists on the horse, and said that he would ride away.

The day has turned west, and the thieves have begun to collect their troops and retreat in an all-round way.

The general, who was wearing iron armor, returned to the Yanzi banner, dismounted and said: "The last general, Zhao Kang, see King Wei!" ”

A man in his thirties, wearing a dragon robe, said coldly: "Zhao Kang, are you guilty?" ”

After Zhao Dare heard this, he immediately hurriedly bowed down and said: "King Wei, the last general will be ignorant. ”

A strategist-like person on the side stood up and said, "General Zhao, you didn't save the crossbow cart when you went out of battle, this is one of his crimes." ”

"But when our army is newly defeated and morale is depressed, you actually praise the enemy's defender Gao Yi in front of the two armies, so where is the King of Wei?"

Zhao Dang's sweat fell, his body trembled, and he said: "The last general lost his words for a while, and I beg King Wei to forgive me." ”

King Wei said: "The lonely king was supposed to be beheaded, but I remembered the past kindness of you and me, this time I temporarily wrote down thirty rods, and if I commit it next time, I am willing to cut off your head." ”

"Thank you King Wei for not killing." Zhao Dang kowtowed his head a few times before retreating.

Immediately, two soldiers stepped forward, directly pulled off Zhao Kang's armor and pants, and scolded him in front of the generals.

After a cane scolding, Zhao Kang was already dying, and was immediately dragged down left and right to go back to the camp to rest.

Wang Xuba pinched his beard and said: "Lone thought that he could break through this bird city with this crossbow, but he didn't expect to meet such a fierce general. ”

"It's really better to be famous than to see it, I heard in the past that this champion Hou, in front of 200,000 Turkic wolves, dared to assassinate Shibi Khan, today I saw it, it was really brave, there was such a fierce general stationed in the flying fox, I don't want to step into Taiyuan alone."

The strategist on the side said: "King Wei, our army is newly defeated, I think it will not be possible to advance Taiyuan for a while, it is better to go south to meet Yashuai, and eat in Boling County, and it is better to spend the winter!" ”

Wang Suba was pleased, and said with a smile: "The military advisor is right, although Boling County is a big county, but what are you afraid of if Yashuai is here, let's go, we will go to Boling by road, eat and drink well." ”

You must know that there is a famine in Shandong and Shanxi at the moment.

If the king of heaven gathers hundreds of thousands of people together, the grain and grass will be eaten up for several days. Therefore, Wang Xuba divided his department into three, led one by himself, the commander Lishan Fei Wei Dao'er, and the general Zhen Zhai'er each led an army to attack the counties respectively.

Therefore, the war of thieves has always been to divert the flow of various counties, one is convenient for food, and the other is convenient for echoing and caring for each other.

For example, Boling County is a large county with a population of hundreds of thousands, and if you want to conquer it, the thieves must gather together.

Wang Xuba said with a smile: "Right now, the imperial army is fighting with the Donghai Gong and Dou Jiande's gang in the river, and I will not touch the mold of the imperial army, and they will fight with the imperial court for them." ”

"Our brothers went south to Boling County with great fanfare, set up a banquet, drank wine and ate meat."

After that, Wang Suba laughed.
