Chapter 675: The Difference Between Surrender and Forced Surrender!
At the beginning, Lu Feng and the others got the information that Dong Zhuo only put 300,000 troops on the line of guarding Neiyang County, and all the rest of the army went to the front line of Xiyi City.
But in the end, the enemy army on the front line of Xiyi City was only more than 2 million, less than 2.5 million.
But the information he got was that Dong Zhuo used four million troops against the Southern Yan Kingdom this time.
Among the more than 4 million troops, only about one million are veterans at the beginning, and their combat effectiveness is not weak, and the rest are all recruits recruited by Dong Zhuo during this time, and their combat effectiveness is weak.
But the number of people is there, and if you ignore it, you will definitely be looking for death.
When he got the information on the number of enemy troops on the front line of Xiyi City, Lu Feng was still puzzled, there were 300,000 enemy troops on the front line of Neiyang County, and there were less than 2.5 million troops outside Xiyi City, even if it was estimated that there were 200,000 more in Bailan City, it would be less than 4 million.
They are still wondering where the rest of the army has gone.
When he arrived in the Bailan Kingdom and got the information of Chang Zike of Wanhu, he learned that all the people in Qingfeng City had moved away, and then he deduced that there were 950,000 troops in Qingfeng City.
Coupled with the troops placed in the city on the road from Xiyi City to Bailan City, the total is almost four million.
I have to say that Li Ru really has some ability, and he has done a lot of precautionary work against Jinyiwei's intelligence system, but now, the initiative has moved into the hands of Lu Feng of the Southern Yan Kingdom.
And when Jia Jiaxu and Gao Shun heard Lu Feng's words, their faces were relatively heavy.
They knew what Lu Feng meant.
I had always thought that the Spirit Sword Sect had not made a move in this matter, and was planning a more dangerous plan.
But the previous thing was to tell them that the Spirit Sword Sect had already made a move, and it was the only two ancestors they had come to assassinate Lu Feng.
Intent to fundamentally disintegrate the Southern Yan Kingdom!
Now, although the ancestor of the Spirit Sword Sect has been solved, the Spirit Sword Sect will definitely not give up.
Once the Bailan Kingdom cannot be solved in a short period of time, the progress of the Nanyan Kingdom on this side will be very slow.
When the Zonglan Kingdom mobilized its troops, the crisis faced by the Southern Yan Kingdom was even greater than the previous siege of the Three Kingdoms and the invasion of the northern barbarians.
Although the Zonglan Kingdom has no real name, in the southwest of Yuzhou, many kingdoms regard it as the suzerain.
They do it, and many small kingdoms will follow suit.
Even if it is a long way to transfer troops from them, it is still a great threat to the Southern Yan Kingdom.
Therefore, the Bailan Kingdom must be resolved as soon as possible, and it must be stabilized as soon as possible, so that it can withdraw from facing the Zonglan Kingdom.
Otherwise, when the time comes, there will be the Bailan Kingdom that has not been completely solved inside, and the Zonglan Kingdom outside, then the Nanyan Kingdom will really be dangerous.
"Your Majesty, the minister thinks we can surrender. ”
Jia Xu groaned slightly, looked at Lu Feng, and said, "The west and south lines of the Bailan Kingdom are completely controlled by Dong Zhuo, and all the army generals of the Bailan Kingdom on these two lines are Dong Zhuo's subordinates. ”
"Now that Dong Zhuo has been killed, although there will be people in those armies who will be loyal to Dong Zhuo and want to avenge Dong Zhuo, absolutely not everyone will be like this. ”
"Therefore, we can surrender, and not only the army in Qingfeng City, but also the army on the front line of Xiyi City, there is a great possibility that it will succeed. At that time, we will be able to deal with the army of the Bailan Kingdom at the lightest cost. ”
Jia Xu's suggestion is a good way, and surrendering is the best way to reduce the losses of the army.
But after Lu Feng groaned slightly, he shook his head and said, "Wenhe, if our Nanyan Kingdom has three years to arrange, this plan of yours is a good strategy, because three years is enough time for us to completely control the Bailan Kingdom." ”
"Not now. ”
Lu Feng's face was solemn, and he said, "There are too many troops on the west and south lines of the Bailan Kingdom, there are four million!"
"It doesn't matter if these four million troops are all new soldiers, and it is very easy to control the surrender, but there are a million veterans who have arrived from the north of the Bailan Kingdom. ”
"These armies are not weak in combat, and they will not simply surrender to the Southern Yan Kingdom. In addition, there are these four million troops, and there are one or two hundred people who can be called generals, and most of them are from the family. How do these people solve it?"
"If they surrender with their troops, then you can't deprive them of their military rights, but at least give them a place, and if they don't, there is a risk of mutiny, which will be even more difficult to solve. ”
"So, if you want to make these four million troops surrender, even if they agree to surrender, I won't agree!"
It's frustrating, but it's just the way it is.
Active surrender and passive surrender are two completely different things.
Voluntary surrender is to surrender directly without force oppression, in other words: abandon the dark and turn to the light.
In this case, can you not give him military power?
No way!
But once the military power is given, it is difficult to control, because most of these people are the elites of the Bailan Kingdom.
There is no doubt that Lu Fengfeng purged some of the families of the Bailan Kingdom, how will these elites of the families who control the military power stand in line at that time?
The first thing people who come out of the family want is always the interests of their own family, not anything else.
There is no doubt about it.
But passive surrender is different.
Passive surrender is when you use force to oppress and force him to surrender, and you want to leave the enemy behind, which means that if you don't surrender, then I will kill you, or the most cruel kind.
In this way, the enemy surrenders, and those generals will give you a place if they are of good character, and if they are not of good character, they will be imprisoned.
These are two different situations, and they are also the problems that Lu Feng needs to solve at the moment.
How to make these people passively surrender!
As for killing all these four million troops, this Lu Feng didn't think about it, after all, in that case, the Southern Yan Kingdom would also pay a great price.
An army of millions of people can't stand there and be killed by you.
Jia Xu's face also became more solemn.
He understood what Lu Feng meant, even if millions of troops were given to you, you might not dare to ask for them.
But if the problem of their generals is solved, these millions of surrendered troops may become their own army.
And to solve this problem, it takes a big battle, and it has to win beautifully!
That is to say, the 950,000 troops in Qingfeng City must be solved!
However, the enemy's city has high walls and a lot of food and grass, so it is not so easy to solve it.
Not only did Jia Xu understand this question, but Gao Shun and Zhao Yun's faces also became solemn.
They are all smart people and are naturally able to realize the seriousness of the problem.
"Your Majesty, the minister has a way to deal with the army of Qingfeng City. ”
