Vol 2 Chapter 702: Lay down

Killing prisoners and enmity? Lu Zheng stared at Meng Shanming, and his heart was shocked again. When he slaughtered 600,000 captives of the Song Dynasty, could he not be enemies?
Not only a hatred, but also a big hatred, it will be a shame that Song Guo will be engraved on and off. If Song Guo has the opportunity, he can not hate this hatred!
This turned out to be intentional, in addition to the grand strategy previously told to Gong Lince, but also to cut off the back road of attacking Song Dynasty soldiers and forcing them to fight bravely!
It turns out that killing prisoners can also be a way to boost morale!
He understands that there are so many reasons behind it. No wonder Meng Shuai will not hesitate to bear the pressure of infamy and the three major factions ...
The army left Qunluo Mountain, and the group of captives left Qunluo Mountain. All the forces carried by the army forced the captives to bear, liberating the burden of the Yan state.
Although the ground was dry a lot in this place soaked in water, the footsteps of the road were still muddy, and the journey was slightly difficult.
The prisoners who bear the burden, Meng Shanming did not want to waste food on them, but only gave some soup to eat and drink. He was physically weak and had a heavy burden. The situation can be imagined.
And these captives were almost wounded, all had missing ears, and everyone had blood on their cheeks.
The ground was muddy and the army was moving slowly.
...
"Master Dao, Gongsunbu's letter, and the red-faced monkey, the letters on both sides arrived almost simultaneously."
In the mountains, Guan Fangyi took out two letters.
Niu Youdao looked at Gongsun Bu first, and there was nothing else, just to remind that the army of Yan Guo in the mountains has set off again.
Later, when I read Yuan Gang's handwriting, only two people were familiar with the writing. Niu Youdao knew that it was top secret information.
At first glance, Gao Jiancheng from Yanjing had a reply.
Even when Gao Jiancheng's news came late, he could understand that because of the need for confidentiality, he didn't let Guan Fangyi and other people around him know that he had contact with Gao Jiancheng, and then transferred it to him when he arrived at Yuan Gang. The news came late.
Niu Youdao rallied his spirit and looked closely at his opinion, which was very pertinent.
Gao Jiancheng first mentioned that Yanjing was going to take 600,000 captives as a bargaining chip for negotiation, first let Niu Youdao know.
Afterwards, Gao Jiancheng did not say whether the 600,000 captives could be killed, but only made suggestions for Niu Youdao to refer to.
After all, it was 600,000 captives, killing these 600,000 people, not to mention anything else, the impact on Meng Shanming's reputation is conceivable. At least one reputation as a "murderer" may not run away.
If you do n’t kill, it ’s obviously not necessary to keep the food and grass. It ’s better to give the court bargaining chips.
If you want to kill, it's a bit of a particular idea. It's better not to kill too directly. It's more appropriate to use it as a bargaining chip.
This bargaining chip does not refer to the bargaining chips of the imperial court, but the bargaining chips of Shang Chaozong or Meng Shanming.
Gao Jiancheng meant to ask Meng Shanming to ask Song Jun for food and grass, and the news came back to Song Jing. There must be two groups of people arguing in the court of Song Jing. One party was willing to give for 600,000 elites, and the other party was unwilling to give.
The premise of this argument is that Yan Jing is using 600,000 captives as the conditions for the Song army to withdraw its troops, and attaches the requirements of grain and grass. Song Jing will think that the conditions here are too harsh, and worry that Meng Shanming will be more powerful after receiving grain and grass. Once he regrets, it will be endangered. Song Guo, so Song Jingchaotang will inevitably have more than two factions.
There are several advantages to this.
Once the prisoners are killed and the court investigates, Meng Shanming can complain about the lack of food and grass, and resist the court's blame. Whoever has no sufficient supplies here, the court cannot provide it.
Another is that Meng Shanming can say that Song Guo killed him without sincerity and anger. To some extent, he can offset some of the negative effects of killing prisoners. He can blame Song Guo for blaming Song Guo for not wanting to save these prisoners, which can weaken the hearts of the Song army. And morale.
The last advantage is that once the prisoners are killed, Song Jingchaotang's advocates of giving food will blame those who did not agree to giving food. Those people have caused 600,000 elite killings, which can cause Song Jingchao to fight in the battle.
What Gao Jiancheng meant in the end was that when bad things were done, there was reason to argue that he was not a bad person, and he had to take the opportunity to create some trouble for his opponent.
After reading Gao Jiancheng's opinion, Niu Youdao twitched his mouth and found that the person who had been soaked for a long time was the one who had been soaked for a long time.
Niu Youdao is still the same attitude. If it is not necessary, he does not want to interfere too much on the battlefield. He delegates specialized tasks to professional talents to let go and do it.
Of course, there will not be any traces of high-level achievements, all converted into their own meaning.
The two sides were not too far apart, Gongsun Bu quickly received his letter, translated the secret letter, and gave it to Meng Shanming as soon as possible.
The road was muddy. Meng Shanming was sitting in a slow-moving carriage when he saw the letter. Gongsun Bu passed in from the window and handed it over from Luo Daan.
After reading the letter, Meng Shanming shook his head and sighed softly, "Dao Ye is Dao Ye, and even a good abacus is also played on the temple."
He is sincerely admired. Although he is fierce in fighting, he has always been not very good at things in the court, such as the evaluation of outsiders.
To be precise, it is not that he is stupid, but he does not pay much attention to it, and he does not want to invest energy in this aspect. The energy of man is limited, and too much dispersal cannot master one. When King Ning was alive, he could concentrate on studying wars. He had nothing to do with Chaotang. He was blocked by King Ning, and now he has no need to control what Chaotang thinks.
And Niu Youdao did not restrain him from the beginning to the end of the war, only provided useful help, but also made him feel very comfortable, unlike the three major schools like to intervene.
There is a capable person who has been hiding behind the scene, paying attention to the crisis, and taking timely actions to help resolve it. He deeply feels that it is a blessing.
For example, before the rebellion and the crisis approaching, no one in Nanzhou was aware of it. Only Niu Youdao realized that the court was going to start against the Shang dynasty, and Niu Youdao immediately transferred the Nanzhou 100,000 Tieqi who was about to fall into a big disaster , Let him Meng Shanming lead 100,000 Tieqi out of danger in time.
It was unacceptable for Meng Shanming and other people to have Shang Chaozong in distress at the time. Meng Shanming wanted to lead people to first aid, but Niu Youdao sent someone to stop him.
Now that I have come back to think about it, to a certain extent, as long as his Meng Shanming and Nanzhou's strength is still there, the court would not dare to give Shang Chaozong what to do.
From another perspective, the Shang dynasty left to bear the consequences and suffered a crime. The killing of Shi Sheng was gradually faded.
Looking back at the situation again, Niu Youdao was the most sensible and calm person. Combined with the situation of Shang Chaozong at that time, it could even be said that the reason was terrible.
If it ’s not Niu Youdao, the consequences of the matter can be imagined. It was them who shouted to send troops to save the country of Yan, but it was Niu Youdao who cleared the obstacles and prevent risks to them. If there was no Niu Youdao hidden behind the scenes With the shot, the consequences of the Shang dynasty's dying and killing Shi Sheng alone are unimaginable, and how can the current situation prevail.
A bird appeared in the distance, and Zhang Hu's voice soon came out of the car window, "Master, Song Jing is here, and we want to verify the number of captives."
Meng Shanming closed the secret letter in his hand and said indifferently: "Inform the ministries to take precautions and let them verify. In addition, the people in Song State were informed that they wanted the prisoners to bring food ..."
...
The negotiations between Song and Yan have already yielded results, but they have not stopped the pace of Song Jun. Song Jun's 500,000 pioneers finally came to the city and encircled Yan Jing!
The gate of Yanjing was closed, and the guards were facing the enemy at the head of the city. Various anti-attack facilities were prepared. The millions of people organized in the city were busy and cooperated with the army to defend the city. It can be seen from this that, with the determination to prevent, the resistance in Yanjing City is not limited to the 200,000 defenders.
Despite this, the people in the city were still panicked.
Outside the city, a monk sent Song Shiqian Qian Liansheng to meet General Song Jun.
With the persuasion of Qian Liansheng and the military orders of Luo Zhao, Song Jun only siege temporarily, waiting for the outcome of the negotiations, once the implementation is unfavorable, Song Jun will immediately attack the city!
Song Jun clamored and intimidated outside the city, and from time to time trumpeted and trumpeted, creating pressure on the people in the city!
Somewhere in the palace, no one dared to come any closer, because some of the corpses in the palace were gathered here and burned.
No one dared to mention the cause of death of the palace princesses. Although they knew that they couldn't hide it, the general manager Tian Yu still issued a ban, and the deliberate ones died!
Shang Jianxiong didn't dare to go back to the harem for a while, and even the place where he lived was temporarily moved to a small room in Yushufang. The people around him were afraid of what they knew, but no one dared to break it.
The enemy forces outside the city shouted. In the palace inside the city, Tong Mo took the negotiation results and discussed the implementation steps with Shang Jianxiong and others.
There is no way to negotiate this. It is necessary to implement the results of the negotiations and to take care of the sentiment of the Shang Dynasty. The current situation is no longer possible for Shang Jianxiong to issue orders to the Shang Dynasty.
Military power is also the most hated part of civil servants to military officials, and it is also the most feared by civil servants. Therefore, as long as there is a chance, civil servants ca n’t wait to impose restrictions on the military power of military officials.
At this time, I dared to anger the Shang Chaozong, and it was useless to talk about any results.
Before, Shang Jianxiong hoped that Shang Chaozong's 100,000 Tieqi would attack Song Jun. Now, he is really afraid that Shang Chaozong will impulse him.
From the perspective of Shang Jianxiong ~ EbookFREE.me ~ Shang Chaozong has every reason to do so.
Meng Xuan came and ignored the guards outside and rushed in.
Shang Jianxiong stood up after the case and asked,
Meng is in charge, can the three factions on the frontline be arranged properly?

Meng Xuan hesitated for a while, and he was embarrassed about this, and it was a bit difficult to speak. After all, he had promised him before.
But there is no way, the news returned by Gong Lince really makes sense. The most important thing is that Meng Shanming and others have their own troops and rely on their ability to control the situation. They do not listen to the three major factions. At this time, the three major factions dare not treat Meng Shanming as long as they still care about their own interests. Otherwise, the consequences will be unbearable!
Upon seeing his reaction, Shang Jianxiong and others were nervous, and the atmosphere did not dare to breathe.
In the end, Meng Xuan said slowly: "Your Majesty, it is estimated that it will not take long for Song Jun to launch an offensive. Let the army be well-preserved and ready to coexist and die with Yanjing!"
PS: There is another man on the of the hero who is immediately swaying, and the new leader "chenrh1974" of Xie Xin will support it!
