Chapter 465 Kill, Kill Without Amnesty
Du Meiyue's body became cold again. Since she was young, her country was destroyed and her family had been destroyed, she saw blood and corpses. But she didn't want Yang Guang to become a murder machine.
"The Turks have the strength to launch an attack on the border at the same time. If you kill 7,000 prisoners of war, they don't know how many unarmed innocent people they want to massacre. This time you have killed 13,000 Turkic soldiers and have achieved an unprecedented victory. Isn't that enough?"
Yang Guang turned coldly, "If I don't kill prisoners of war, I won't kill the people of the Central Plains. As you said, I have killed more than 10,000 of them. The Turks have never suffered such a big loss and they will never give up. They will definitely take revenge on the massacre. Can we stop this? Should the Great Zhou Kingdom kneel down like Gao Shaoyi to be the son emperor for the Turks?"
Du Meiyue was also angry, and her chest was so angry that she was undulating. "But the two countries would not kill the envoys, and the two countries would not kill prisoners of war. Generally, they would exchange prisoners of war with each other after the war ended. So now, the lives of Turkic prisoners of war are saved, which means that the lives of their brothers and soldiers are saved. If you want to kill the Turks, you will kill them. When will the killing stop like this?"
Yang Guang suddenly smiled and walked over and reached out to lift Du Meiyue's chin, "Haha, you have never argued with me like this. For the lives of the Turkic soldiers, okay, go back to classify, and those who surrender will survive and send them to the quarry to quarry and build cities. I want to use Turkic soldiers to raise and strengthen the walls of Yingzhou before the Turkic soldiers head south. As for the purpose of not surrendering, they will be killed without any other purpose. But the problem is that these 7,000 people need to be strictly guarded. Do you know how much food will 7,000 prisoners of war consume? In a remote and poor place like Yingzhou, how much ability do you have to raise 7,000 Turkic prisoners of war besides raising 30,000 elite soldiers? Even if you don't talk about this, I have ordered Luo Shixin to lead 50,000 soldiers alone through Alshan and head straight to the Huer grassland of the Turkic nest. Who will escort prisoners of war? Can Yingzhou be used?"
"In addition to the issue of eating and guarding, do you know how big a prisoner of war camp is required for 7,000 people? How long does it take to build it? If they are not full or warm, these people will still resist. They will also kill them at that time, and their reputation will be worse at that time, and large-scale resistance may also cause unstable morale."
Yang Guang then spoke in a majestic tone. Du Meiyue was stunned by what he said, but what surprised her even more was Yang Guang's military strategy. "You...what did you say? You actually sent Luo Shixin's enemy alone to the hinterland of the Turkic. Isn't this an egg hitting stones and moths to the fire? It's absolutely impossible. This kind of crazy behavior has never happened in a century. You are blinded by victory. No, please order your troops to retreat and strengthen the city defense and defend the Yingzhou front line."
Yang Guang was not angry this time because Du Meiyue said the truth, so he took her hand and told her the truth little by little. He said it in detail. In fact, he himself needed someone to listen to. Maybe Du Meiyue could not give him the final advice, but he said it very much.
Du Meiyue felt extremely conflicted after hearing this. She knew that she had mistakenly blamed Yang Guang, but is this really OK? Although she was also worried about the lives of those soldiers, she was even more worried about Yang Guang's future and situation. Doing so without Yang Jian's order would be like committing suicide. Once Luo Shixin's team was wiped out in the heart of the Turkic region, Yang Guang would probably not be able to make up for this life.
As for the issue of prisoners of war, she is really in a dilemma. What can I do if I kill too bloody and cruelly? Let it go, hum, if it is released today, they will return to the battlefield and kill you immediately,
Yang Guang's other sentence made her feel even more deeply, "The kindness to the enemy is the cruelty to herself."
She looked up and took a deep breath, "Are you sure Yang Su will follow your order to attack the Turkic hinterland?" Yang Guang did not answer immediately, but looked up at the battlefield still filled with smoke at the foot of the mountain. "I am at least 70% sure. If I take a desperate bet, I will be 10% sure. Do you know, I only told you that this is actually the result of my neglect of the victory. I have planned this beheading raid for a long time, and I have a great confidence in winning, but it is even more difficult after winning. The Great Zhou was powerless and was waiting for the anger and revenge of the Turkic soldiers."
"The credit for this great victory is mine, so the disaster is also caused by me. Since it is caused by me, I must be responsible. Therefore, I have to defeat the Turks at one time and completely subdue them, so that they know that the army of the Great Zhou can also defeat them, and they can also attack their nests, and they can also be brave and fearless and seriously injured their vitality. The Turks have been strong for a hundred years, and the Central Plains army dare not take the initiative to attack them against them more than they have defeated. Then with the help of the Yuchi Jiong Rebellion, this opportunity comes."
"Believe me, the combination of Luo Shixin and Zhang Xutuo and Yuan Zhou is very strong, so strong that you can't imagine. There is also Yang Su, who is also very strong, so strong that you can't imagine. Four people and 100,000 soldiers were definitely not rushing into the Turks to die, but going to kill people and fight. Although it is impossible to guarantee that 100,000 people will return when they go, I am still sure that there will be at least 70,000 left. War will inevitably kill people, and the enemy will die, and we will die. This is the war, and we must all face it."
Du Meiyue kept looking straight at Yang Guang, "I understand, you decide for yourself, I support you. I am a woman who is short-sighted and has not seen the strength and suffering in your heart. I will bear it with you. It is indeed your credit, but if you cause the Turkic soldiers to completely anger and send the troops south, it is your guilt. You must bear it. This is the man I, Du Meiyue, like. I believe you, you must be able to be the first person to attack the Turkic nest and win."
"But look at your eyes, you have to be with Luo Shixin." This question is what Du Meiyue is most worried about. Yang Guang was stunned when he heard it, "Haha, you know me. I really want to go with you. One is that when I went there, the soldiers would never come back if they were not winning, and they would never come back. The other is that I want to use my determination to prove to everyone that the second son of the Yang family is equally outstanding and fearless. If he can return from the Turks alive, then this experience will have an extremely important training effect on future battles. It can be said that no matter what situation I encounter in the future, I will no longer be afraid of Turkic soldiers but Turkic soldiers are afraid of me."
"You will immediately return to Yingzhou to lead troops to receive Turkic prisoners of war. I guess there will not be many people who refuse to surrender. The rest must be killed, otherwise they will not be able to eliminate their arrogant momentum for a hundred years."
Du Meiyue rode back to the camp without delaying for a moment. She rode a horse naturally. Black Pearl has now adapted to her identity and rhythm, and her relationship with the War Emperor is getting better and better, just like their master,
Yang Guang walked down the mountain and ordered Luo Shixin to take 7,000 prisoners of war to an open land, and then stood on a high place to let the sword teeth who were proficient in Turkic language be interpreted.
