Chapter 94: Civilians? Let the civilians die!
"Do we really have any hope of winning?"
While the generals of the Persian Empire were discussing what they should do next, the soldiers from the Persian Empire fell into a wave of unprecedented confusion.
Their eyes were not blind, and they naturally saw the overwhelming army that appeared in the distance.
At the very least, the armies that appeared in the distance were many times larger than they didn't know.
In other words, they will need to fight forces that far outnumber them.
The most important thing is that the army from the Persian Empire is not a professional army, and there are many, many civilians in the Persian Empire army.
This is a well-known thing.
It is precisely because there are many, many civilians in the army of the Persian Empire that those serious soldiers are so confused.
They didn't know if they would be able to defeat the army of the Great Qin Empire.
For the guys in the Persian Empire, although the battle is considered in all aspects, the simplest battle is considered in the number of soldiers between the two sides.
When the difference in strength between the two of them is too great, then a wave of confusion will naturally appear in the hearts of all the soldiers.
In the face of these confused soldiers, those soldiers who were also in the Persian Empire had an unprecedented helplessness: "I don't know. ”
"I don't know if we'll be alive next."
"All I know is that all we need to do next is to honestly pick up the weapons in our hands and attack the troops in front of us who don't know what their names are."
"That's all."
"Other than that, I don't really know what we need to do."
The other soldier said with a look of calm in his eyes.
While the soldiers were beginning to discuss, so did the civilians from the Persian Empire.
"Ladies and gentlemen, once we meet with the enemy at that time, I think all we need to do is simply choose to surrender."
"No matter what, we must go back alive!"
A civilian of great prestige just said a word of advice.
In the face of the words of this disappointed civilian at this moment, the surrounding civilians nodded slightly and replied: "That's nature, I can't go and fight for those damn things." ”
"Usually those damn guys think about how to squeeze us, and we don't usually get any benefit, and now when they are in crisis, they think of us and want us to win this battle for them, but why should we fight this battle for them?"
"It's a loss of life!"
I saw another civilian with a heavy gaze in his eyes.
It would be true if the enemy they were dealing with was not very strong, but when they realized that the number of existing troops they needed to attack this time was far greater than the hundreds of thousands of them, they knew that they would never be able to defeat the enemy.
If they couldn't defeat the enemy, why should they serve the Persian Empire?
Could it be that because they are civilians belonging to the Persian Empire, they need to pay with their lives for the Persian Empire?
Sorry, they don't want to!
Therefore, one after another, the civilians began to discuss how to face the soldiers of Great Qin, and they chose to surrender.
While soldier after soldier and civilian population were discussing how to surrender and survive, General Edward and the other generals in the Persian army began to discuss the same.
I saw General Edward just say with a serious voice: "Everyone! ”
"I'm sure you all know the power of the unknown forces!"
"According to the information known so far, the number of troops on the other side is probably as high as three or four hundred thousand."
"In other words, the opponent's army is more than twice as large as ours!"
"That means we can't choose to go head-to-head next!" There was a heaviness in Edward's tone.
In the face of Edward's words, the other generals just looked at each other.
"So how do we go about it?"
A general's eyes were filled with doubt.
Faced with the doubts in the eyes of the current general, Edward exhaled deeply: "It's not impossible. ”
"Although the feasibility of this method is very low, it has to be said that this is the only way at present." Edward spoke so heavily.
When Edward's words rang in the ears of many generals, one by one the generals hurriedly asked, "General, what should we do next?!" ”
Looking at the eagerness in the eyes of the many generals, Edward said so seriously: "It's very simple, the next thing we need to do is to lead all the enemy troops to the various cities. ”
"We must not go head-to-head with the enemy here!"
"Once we have a hard fight with the enemy, the result at that time is 100% that we are hung by the enemy!" Edward spoke heavily.
"But if we had spread all the enemy apart, the result would have been different."
"Lead the enemy to one city after another, and then mobilize all the civilians in that city after city to pick up the weapons in their hands and fight back, although it is said that many civilians will die."
"But it's really the only chance we have to win." Edward gestured to the map in front of them.
It was a map of the entire Persian Empire, with clear records of the locations of one city after another.
When faced with Edward's words, the generals looked at each other, and they all saw deep thoughts in each other's eyes.
Soon, a general's eyes carried a seriousness.
"That's it!"
"As for the civilians?!"
"Dead is dead!"
"It is an honor for them to be able to contribute their efforts to the survival of the Empire!"
"Let's just follow General Edward's plan!"
At the same time, I saw a middle-aged general with a serious expression in his eyes.
Soon, more and more generals agreed with Edward's opinion.
"That's it!"
"Do as General Edward advises!"
In an instant, Edward's opinion was unanimously approved.
