Vol 4 Chapter 2782: Intimidation and lure for slaughter

When all the Xianbei generals retired, only He Lanmin and Harry Huer were left in the hall. He Lanmin's eyes were like water, sweeping over Harry Hu'er body, making him feel uncomfortable. This beautiful woman gave such a vicious and ruthless order just now. Combined with her previous cold-blooded ruthlessness, let this The officers who killed countless people had a chill in their hearts. How could they dare to have the usual courage and desire.
Harry swallowed a bit of saliva and said, "Madam, madam, you have left a humble position, but what else needs to be explained?"
He Lanmin nodded: "What you reminded just now makes sense. There is indeed something I have overlooked. Before the enemy attacked, killing people in the city is something that must be done. It is not only to protect the safety of the city, but also to build prestige. Tell others, including our Xianbei soldiers and civilians, what the outcome will be if the city is broken. Do you know why those Han troops would not work hard or even surrender?"
Harry Huer said bitterly: "These Han people have always been capricious and succumbed to power. They surrendered to us because they couldn't beat us before. Whenever there is a chance, they will come by their own clan and they will naturally have different intentions, especially It was because our army was defeated in this battle. I'm afraid that many Han Chinese have already surrendered to Liu Yu."
He Lanmin smiled slightly: "The situation has not yet reached such a bad level. Although our army has been unfavorable in warfare, these Han generals have always been afraid of our army's martial arts and did not dare to defect easily. After all, their family members are still under our army's control. Inside, according to Dayan’s military method, defectors have to question their family members. Therefore, most of them are now disintegrated and have not yet surrendered directly."
Harry Huer's eyes lit up: "That is to say, they will escape back, and can they fight for Dayan again?"
He Lanmin hooked his mouth: "This is hard to say. After all, the Han generals are not all family members in the city. Many of them are villagers and peasants in the villages of Dayan. What choice will they make next is to wait for them to escape home. Later, I decided to wait and see. I know the virtues of these Han people very well. It was like this in the Northern Wei Dynasty. They usually sat and watched the various parties fighting and defended themselves, and waited until the fight was almost done before surrendering the winner. Back then, Dayan They did just that when the first emperor conquered this Qilu land."
Harry Huer laughed and said, "Madam is too right, they are just like that. Therefore, the first emperor ordered us not to chase and rob these escaping Han people, saying that we wanted to subdue the hearts of the people. But..."
Having said this, his brows frowned: "But according to the order the lady just ordered, I was asked to kill the captives in the city. Why is this?"
He Lanmin hooked his mouth: "This is different. This battle was defeated badly. Our army has killed nearly 100,000 soldiers and morale is low. If the city does not open the killing ring, our morale cannot be reversed, and a little bit more, these looted Jin dynasties The Han people have no relatives and no reason. Killing them will not cause the soldiers to have a heart of rebellion. The last point is that we have to use this method to face Han Fan and Feng Fu, including Yuan Zun and Yuan Miao who may come back later. People said, the fate of betraying Dayan!"
Harry blinked suddenly and said, "Madam, please forgive me for the extra words. These people can be said to be an excuse for Jin country to attack my Dayan this time, and Liu Yu's teacher also said that we should return these. Captives, kill them all now, will they..."
A cold light flashed in He Lanmin’s eyes, and Harry suddenly closed his mouth, not daring to speak any more, only to hear He Lanmin’s solemn voice: "Stupid, you think we handed over the captives at this time and surrendered to Liu Yu. Will he be able to let us go? In this war, the so-called we first take predation is just an excuse. Liu Yu has been preparing for this battle for many years. When Jiangbei is attacked, he can take the army northward, food, grass, ordnance. You don't need to spend time preparing, just waiting for this excuse. We did it too late and too lightly, not the other way around!"
Harry swallowed a little bit of saliva: "Madam's lesson is that I'm just a low-level officer. I really don't understand this kind of military affairs. What Madam wants me to do, I just do it."
He Lanmin smiled slightly, and handed the token in her hand to Harry Huer: "Do you really want this token?"
Harry Huer’s face changed, and he took two steps back and waved his hands again and again: "This, this is like seeing your Majesty’s Great Yan Tianma Ling, national teachers and husbands are qualified to act with cards. How dare you be a humble servant? want?"
He Lanmin said coldly: "Without relying on this token, how can you mobilize the guard horse in Miyagi to do that?"
Harry gritted his teeth suddenly: "I am a little centurion, I am not qualified to do such a big thing, madam, you, you should ask another wise man, or, or you can transfer. Soldiers and horses, I can take the command."
He Lanmin's face froze, and his face suddenly pulled down: "Is a woman of mine still leading soldiers to fight? Harry Huer, why did you do these things when I came to you? Could it be that when I was in Helan Department before? Haven't you learned the truth about why women can't be generals?"
Harry suddenly said cowardly: "But, but this is to deal with thousands of Han people in the city, broad daylight, full of eyes, I'm afraid..."
He Lanmin said solemnly: "You also know that this is broad daylight, so can I rely on the killer assassins in my hands to do these things? Dayan has a military method, and he can sit in the back of the enemy. At this special moment, people are panicked. At most half a day, the defeat will be heard, and then these Han people and some turkeys will take the opportunity to cause chaos. If Guanggu is lost, where can we go?"
Harry Huer's eyes looked uncertain, and he was clearly struggling.
He Lanmin stepped forward and looked at Harry Huer motionlessly: "You are a member of our Helan Department. I have been taking care of you for so many years. How could I harm you? Just considering your low position, I'm afraid It’s hard to convince the crowd. I gave you this token, because my brother once said that you are considerate and decisive in your work, and you are suitable for such big things. I am a woman who has fled from the Northern Wei Dynasty. There is a token, I’m afraid that someone will dissatisfied. For example, Han Fan, as Shang Shuling, may resist orders at this time, but you are a soldier of the Helan Ministry for many years and he dare not question you. You only need to hold this token. Adjusting the palace guard to deal with the Han prisoners is the first hero to stabilize the people and defend the solid. After your majesty and the national teacher come back, you will definitely be promoted to you in recognition of your merits!"
