Chapter 75 Calming down civil strife ([-])

Outside Shouchun City
"Wan Sheng!"

"Wang Changyu, the Sima in the army, cut off the head of the Huainan rebel army at level 220!"

Tread-tap-

A group of Han cavalry held their heads in their hands, showing off to the Huainan defenders on the city wall.

These heads were all harvested when they beheaded the Huainan soldiers who went out of the city to grab food just now.

Since this month, almost every few days, the Huainan Kingdom will send soldiers out of the west gate to grab food, and Wang Changyu then takes the opportunity to ambush.

Wang Changyu himself didn't know how many military exploits he had made.

"I really hope that this siege can continue forever, so that I can get more military merit." Wang Changyu was secretly happy in his heart. There are not many places that are safe and military merit can be earned like this.

Wang Changzhi, who was in the camp of the Chinese army, looked at the state of the Huainan soldiers on the city wall in the distance, and found that those Huainan soldiers were no longer the self-confidence, health, and spirit they had before, but had become sluggish, desperate, and dazed.

"Soon, the city will be broken in a few days." Seeing the state of the defenders of Huainan Kingdom, Wang Changzhi knew that Shouchun City could hardly hold on, and now it was just holding on, and the siege continued. In a few days, the whole city will collapse in the purgatory of cannibalism.

……

No.15 days
Inside the castle
"vomit--"

Fu Xiaozhu, a girl who had been starving for several days, suppressed her nausea, tore off the cloth shoes she was wearing, bit the shoes, and ate them into her stomach.

Her mother was roasting a pile of dirt over a fire and eating it.

At this time, the mother and daughter could smell the fragrance, and it was still meaty.

Could it be? ! ! !
At this time when I don't even have to eat coarse grains, I can actually smell the smell of meat coming from the neighbor's house. What kind of meat is it? Needless to say?

……

Royal palace
"The people in the city cannibalize each other, this is not the Huainan country I want." Liu An, king of Huainan, looked at the scene of people eating each other in the city, and couldn't help blaming himself: "The widows will cause the people to eat each other for their own selfishness, and God will not forgive the widows. "

"Your Majesty!"

Huainan Guo Xiangguo and a group of civil and military officials all cried bitterly.

"I have made up my mind. I will kill myself to apologize to the world, but I beg the chariot general not to hurt one of my people."

"King!!!"

……

outside the city
"The Prime Minister of Huainan, please surrender!"

After more than half a year of siege, Huainan Guo Xiangguo led all civil and military officials to open the city gate and surrender.

Da Da Da~
Wang Changyu rode a steed to Xiangguo of Huainan Kingdom, looked at Xiangguo of Huainan Kingdom kneeling at his feet, and the head of King Huainan in his hand, and said contemptuously to him, "Is it the head of the traitorous king?"

Today, he is so majestic that even the Xiangguo of Huainan has to kneel at his feet and beg for surrender.

"you!"

Hearing that Wang Changyu disrespected their king so much, some Huainan officials wanted to reprimand them.

But they were all criminal officials, how could Wang Changyu give them face.

Clang!
Wang Changyu drew out his long sword and stabbed at the Huainan official who wanted to reprimand him.

呲——

"what--"

The civil servant died instantly.

"Oh! How dare a guilty minister be arrogant? A joke!" Wang Changyu said disdainfully, then took the Huainan King's head from the hands of the Xiangguo of the Huainan Kingdom, and was about to hand it over to the Chariot General Wang Changzhi.

"My king's last wish, general, please don't slaughter the city!" Huainan Prime Minister shouted at Wang Changyu.

"I will report to my... general." Wang Changyu replied coldly.

After arriving at the camp of the Chinese Army and confirming that it was the head of Liu An, the rebel king, Wang Changzhi also began to consider his posthumous name.

The king of Huainan asked him not to hurt the people in the city, but he actually didn't take it to heart. A loser is not qualified to negotiate terms with him.

Besides, in this world, slaughtering cities is a very normal thing, not slaughtering cities would be something else, the emperor would not blame him for such a trivial matter.

It's just that if you do this, you will have to bear a bad name in the future, which is not worthwhile for Wang Changzhi who is already planning to retire.

Since there is no seal to seal, Wang Changzhi is going to withdraw from the imperial court in order to prevent his meritorious deeds. As a chariot general, he can provide shelter for his family in Liaodong even if he withdraws from the imperial court.

If he came to attack the city with the soldiers of the royal family, it is absolutely impossible for him not to slaughter the city, because the reputation is not as important as the interests of the soldiers, but since he is bringing soldiers from the imperial court, he must take good care of his reputation. Whether the soldiers of the imperial court can grab things has nothing to do with him, Wang Changzhi?

Let the titans complain, I'm retiring anyway.

Thinking of this, Wang Changzhi ordered the soldiers: "Do not disturb the people after entering the city, and those who disobey the order will be executed!"

"what?!"

"General, are you kidding me?"

"Slaughtering the city is a common practice, how can you not slaughter the city?"

"In order to protect his reputation, the general asked tens of thousands of soldiers to come here for nothing. Isn't that too selfish?"

The generals and soldiers were all puzzled, they worked hard for more than half a year, and finally they were able to break through the city and go in happily, but the chariot general Wang Changzhi didn't let them slaughter the city, it was unreasonable.

Even if King Wen of Zhou, praised by the sages, slaughtered the city, why couldn't they slaughter the city?
The complaints from the soldiers kept ringing out. If they were not dealt with in time, they might cause a mutiny, or even blow up the camp on the spot.

"Huanyi, kill those who disturb the morale of the army immediately!" Wang Changzhi frowned slightly and ordered Wang Changyu.

Faced with this situation, any explanation is useless. Before you can finish your explanation, the soldiers have already mutinied. Only by cutting the mess quickly and killing a few who took the lead in making trouble, can the others be deterred temporarily.

"promise!"

Tread-tap-

呲——

"No, don't! Uh-"

Wang Changyu promised, rushed into the barracks with his own guards, shot a soldier who complained that he would not slaughter the city to death in front of everyone, and shouted to the rest of the soldiers: "Those who disturb the morale of the army, behead!"

Afterwards, Wang Changyu arrested those who took the lead in making trouble, took them to the barracks, and whipped them in front of everyone.

Snapped!
"what--"

"Forgive me, I dare not!"

"what!!!"

Everyone's face changed drastically. They didn't expect that the chariot general Wang Changzhi was determined not to slaughter the city. Although they wanted to make trouble, they couldn't help their legs trembling when they saw the miserable conditions of the soldiers who were whipped.

In the end, Wang Changzhi still didn't dare to let the soldiers enter the city, because once they entered the city, he, a chariot general, could not control them with a single military order.

Even if the soldiers who entered the city burned, killed and looted, he couldn't control them. It was impossible to kill all tens of thousands of soldiers.

"go!"

"The class teacher returns to the court!"

In the end, although Wang Changzhi won the head of King Huainan, he did not dare to enter the city, fearing that the situation would be out of control, so he simply returned to the court with tens of thousands of soldiers, and at the same time asked the scouts to notify the court officials in nearby counties and counties to bring them to the city. The soldiers from their counties and counties came to take over the big city of Shouchun.
