Chapter 456: Harsh Surrender
At this time, the enemies in front of them were not one or two, but there were 200,000 enemies in front of them.
200,000 people.
Even if it is 200,000 pigs, once they are desperate, they can cause them a certain amount of obstacles, and winning Changsheng in such a situation naturally requires some deep consideration.
At this point after hesitation.
Ying Changsheng made a decision to accept Chen Ping's suggestion and accept the surrender of the opposing Roman army, of course, this acceptance is not really accepted but the soldiers are not tired of deceit.
Once the enemy's army really laid down its weapons and won immortality after surrendering to him, he would not hesitate to kill, and it was impossible for him to leave so many people behind.
First of all, the number of these prisoners of war is too much, they are as high as 200,000.
In such a situation, Ying Changsheng must make a decision.
Deal with them, if they are left directly, Ying Changsheng can't afford to support them, after all, in this era, Rome's materials are relatively poor, and it is really a bit of a fool's dream to feed 200,000 slaves who have left their jobs first.
It's simply whimsical, just like the predicament faced by the Great Qin General Bai Qi after the Battle of Changping.
Win Changsheng also couldn't feed the captives in front of him.
So after they surrendered, Ying Changsheng could only make one decision, and that was to kill all these captives.
So as to reduce their own burden.
As for why you don't let the enemy go.
This is also for a reason, these captives are Rome in their young age, and they can resist the attack of the Great Qin Empire now, so once Rome releases them back to their hometown.
Who could guarantee that they would not continue to rebel against the Great Qin Empire?
And if they continue to rebel against the Great Qin Empire.
It will undoubtedly cause great casualties to the Great Qin Empire.
It is easy to make the soldiers of the Qin army exhausted, and then deal with them in such a situation, it is impossible to win immortality, and it is impossible to leave their lives.
He must cut down the grass and completely cut off all possibilities that the Roman Empire can resist Great Qin, and the best way is nothing else, which is to completely kill this generation of Romans.
And so it goes.
You don't have to think about it anymore.
I have to say that the idea of winning Changsheng.
It's a little poisonous.
But the problem is that in the current era, when racial civilizations are competing for living space and interests, all morality is superfluous and unnecessary.
Only the bloodiest plunder, the bloodiest scramble, is fundamental.
Sometimes your kindness doesn't do you any good.
On the contrary, it may kill you.
In this world of the jungle.
The weak do not deserve to live.
At this time, when he received a reply from the Qin soldiers, when the envoy returned, he was extremely surprised, and told the consul that the prince of Qin had accepted their Roman surrender, and of course made many harsh demands on them.
They are required to submit to the Great Qin Empire from now on, and in addition to contributing a lot of wealth to the Daqian Empire every year, they must also contribute the most beautiful palace maids to the supreme emperor of the Great Qin Empire in the Xianyang Palace.
In addition, the merchants of the Great Qin Empire should be given the most preferential merchant policy in Rome, allowing the merchants of the Great Qin Empire to enter and leave the territory of Rome at will.
And required.
Rome agreed to the Great Qin Empire to garrison troops in Rome.
by the invincible army of the Great Qin Empire.
Defend the safety of Rome.
In addition, the Great Qin Empire should also have the right to mine up and down Rome.
After the merchants and civilians of the Great Qin Empire committed crimes in Rome, the Roman region could not conduct a trial and ruling, and the people had to be handed over to the Great Qin Empire for trial.
In the face of such a harsh surrender condition.
In the face of the aggressive Qin army's demands.
For a moment, the consul was not angry at all, but he was angry.
I saw a smile on his face, and then he opened his mouth after glancing at the others present.
"See, the enemy has put forward such harsh conditions, it is really unbearable, it is simply bullying us, completely making us slaves!"
"yes, they're too harsh!"
The generals on the side nodded one after another.
But there was a relaxed expression on his face.
The reason is simple, in their opinion, if the Qin army directly agrees to their surrender, without saying the conditions after they surrender.
Or rather, the conditions of surrender are very.
It's very unreasonable, for example, after surrendering, let them run and dance as usual.
So.
It is clear that the enemy is tempting them to surrender and then intends to carry out some conspiracy behind their backs.
And now Ying Changsheng has put forward such harsh surrender conditions.
It was inevitable that the consuls of the Roman Empire, as well as the generals, would think.
Win Changsheng is real, and ask them to surrender.
If not for the surrender of them, as for putting forward such harsh conditions.
At this moment, I only heard the archon open his mouth.
"Qin's, this surrender condition is too harsh, but although it is too harsh, we can't accept it, after all, you have all seen that their army is so brave and good at fighting, if we don't surrender, is there any other way out?"
"And although this surrender condition is harsh, it is not without benefits, at least we can temporarily preserve everything in the Roman Empire, as long as we can concentrate on developing our own empire in the future, and bury our heads in ten years and ten years, we will meet the Qin State!"
"In addition, the distance between Qin and our Rome is too much, far away, as long as we can develop wholeheartedly, learn everything about them, learn their military technology, everyone has also seen that the reason why we were defeated is not because our soldiers are not brave enough to fight, in fact, they are brave enough, the reason why we are defeated is purely because our weapons and equipment are too backward, as long as we learn the sophisticated weapons of Qin!"
"At that time, we will be able to completely defeat the garrison of the Qin State in our Rome, and when the time comes, we will be able to defend the enemy outside the country, and we will be ashamed!"
I have to say that the level of this archon is really high.
He was able to mobilize a large number of soldiers as cannon fodder for a decisive battle, and after the defeat, he was able to sum up this truth.
It can be said that if Ying Changsheng really intends to use this harsh surrender of Rome as a colony of the Great Qin Empire as a governance policy against Rome, then a few years later, maybe Rome will really have the strength to fight against the Great Qin Empire.
It can really be used as an enemy with the Great Qin Empire, and then compete.
After all, the distance between the two sides is too far.
The power that the Qin State can project here.
It wasn't much, as long as Rome could organize an army of decent size that had completed a certain amount of firearms.
