...

The sun sets, the remaining horses split their armor, and the wailing figures on the ground are filled with the cruelty of war...

Bai Qi led a large army to pursue the Anding defenders. As he expected, the soldiers of Yongzhou were already exhausted. Their spirit was wiped out by the Far Eastern Army, which was waiting for work at Hongyang City, and they could not be compared with the Northern Army with strong morale and well-equipped military skills.

In this battle, 30,000 soldiers in Yongzhou were defeated. Only Wang Mao and Zhang Dian led more than 1,000 people to break through and retreat in the direction of Anding. The remaining more than 20,000 soldiers, including Dong Hu's brother and Dong Qian, had no choice but to become Bai Qi's prisoners.

“Bring it up~”

Chen Wu shouted loudly, and Dong Feng was tied up and brought to the Baiqi tent.

"snort……"

Bai Qi snorted coldly, shrugged his shoulders and pushed away the soldiers behind him, staring at Bai Qi sitting on the main case with a resentful look on his face.

Bai Qi stared at Dong Qi coldly for a while, and said for a long time: "Dong Qi, as long as you can obey the orders of this general and lead the 20,000 surrendered soldiers to help our Far East Army capture Anding, I will spare you. What do you think?"

"Bah! Dream!" Dong Qian cursed, "You traitors, want to let the soldiers and civilians in Yongzhou kill each other? They are so beautiful. What do you think you are? The concubine's son and the untouchables also want my Dong family to serve you? If you don't urinate, you are worthy of yourself or not!"

"Bold! You prisoner dare to be so rude!"

Seeing that Dong Qi was rude, Chen Wu shouted angrily and kicked him in the bend of his knee, leaving him kneeling in the tent.

Bai Qi's face was gloomy, and his eyes suddenly appeared. He suppressed his anger and said to Dong Qi: "Dong Qi, I will ask you the last question, is it willing to cooperate with the Far East Army?"

Dong Qi opened his eyes wide open, and said to Bai Qi word by word: "I wish I could not eat my skin and flesh, drink my blood, how could I surrender to a traitor like Liu Ce, and I would kill and cut it for you to deal with it, but if I want me, Dong Qi, to shake your tail and beg for mercy, that would be a fool!"

"Ba~"

Bai Qi couldn't bear it anymore, slapped the table, stood up and pointed at Dong Qi and shouted loudly, "You stubborn thing, I think you are superior to others when you were born. Do you really think that this general dare not kill you?"

"Then come!" Dong Qi was fearless and stretched his neck and shouted loudly at Bai Qi, "If I, Dong Qi, blinked my eyelids, I, would not be a member of the Dong family's direct line!"

Bai Qi's pupils ejaculated even colder, and his clenched fists had already burst into blue veins.

"Okay, I will fulfill your wishes! Come..."

"General, wait!"

When Bai Qi was about to drag Dong Qi out to behead him, Deputy General Wang He quickly persuaded him: "Prices should calm down for the time being. Dong Qi should die, but it shouldn't be now. If he dies, what should the 20,000 surrendered soldiers be dealt with?"

Bai Qi calmed down after hearing this, glared at Dong Qian, waved his hand: "Drag him down first and take care of him!"

After Dong Feng was taken down, Bai Qi said, "Go and see the situation of these surrendered soldiers first!"

...

At the place where the surrendered soldiers in Yongzhou were guarding the prisoners, the chef was delivering the food they ate to each of them.

According to the latest regulations on prisoners and prisoners in the Military Governor's Office, the levels of prisoners are also differentiated. Most of the foods of soldiers and prisoners in the Central Plains are two to three pieces of bread with one meal, and one bowl of vegetable soup. They are basically made of two meals.

I dare not say how good it is, but at least it is fine to fill my stomach, and it is even much better than the food in many local military positions.

Under the stimulation of this treatment, the defenders in various places naturally lost the fighting spirit to fight to the death with Liu Ce, and many cities were descending.

Just imagine that the food and treatment of prisoners is so good, then actively surrendering to join the Far East Army will definitely receive higher treatment...

In fact, this is true. When Liu Ce recovered the eight northern provinces, he gave enough treatment to the local officers and soldiers who took the initiative to surrender, ensuring that they would not starve in the years of famine, and quickly gained their support.

But today, this measure seems to have lost its due effect...

"Pooh……"

A non-commissioned officer in Yongzhou chewed a bite of cake and vomited it to the ground with great dissatisfaction. Then he stood up and threw the cake in his hand at the military commander who distributed the food.

"Damn it, what are you giving us food? I want to eat meat and bring it to us!"

Under the instigation of this Yongzhou non-commissioned officer, the surrounding Yongzhou soldiers were also making noises after initial surprise, clamoring to eat meat.

"We have all seen it. Why can you group of Far East barbarians fry meat and eat it? We can only eat this dry bread?"

"Yes, we also want to eat meat and bring it to us!"

"Damn the Far East Barbarian, I'm so harsh..."

The people of Yongzhou are extremely tough, which has also created a arrogant and arrogant temperament in the Yongzhou army. They all choose to "fight" against and dissatisfied with things.

They didn't feel that the food they had in their hands was not good, but when they saw someone eating better than them, they were very dissatisfied and did not realize that they were a prisoner.

This scene happened to be seen by Bai Qi passing by. He saw the place where the prisoners were imprisoning was noisy, and the fierce light in his eyes splashed out like a tide...

After inspecting the prisoner-of-war camp and returning to the tent, Wang He said with concern: "If these prisoners are so disobedient, this will probably affect our army's war against Yongzhou..."

Bai Qi heard this and said in a deep voice: "What should we do according to the intention of the deputy general?"

Wang He replied: "Originally, he wanted to place this captive soldier in Hongyang to help the defenders consolidate the city, but he probably couldn't take such measures,

It would be better to let them all return to their hometowns, so that they can convey to the people of Yongzhou that our military governor is a benevolent and righteous army, not an invader…”

"Let them all?" Bai Qi's eyebrows were narrowed and he looked at Wang He with confusion, "There are 20,000 people. If you let them go, aren't you afraid to deal with us again?"

Wang He said: "This is impossible. You can't delay the attack on Anjian for these surrendered soldiers, right?"

"Of course, we cannot let these surrendered soldiers miss the military opportunity..." Bai Qi said with an expressionless face, "But if we release these surrendered soldiers to their hometown, it will be impossible to pose a threat to our Far East Army in the future!"

Wang He's heart tightened. Looking at Bai Qi's expression, he seemed to understand what he wanted to do, and asked tentatively: "General Bai, what do you want?"

Bai Qi picked up a book of this article and said calmly: "We should do special things in special times, and all the consequences will be borne by this general..."

"Please think twice!" Wang He knelt on one knee, bowed his hands and persuaded him quickly, "The 20,000 surrendered soldiers cannot be killed, which is related to the reputation of the General of the Military Commander in the future command of Yongzhou.

General, you killed 20,000 barbarian soldiers that day. This was General Huo's order, and those 20,000 barbarian soldiers should indeed be killed. This is understandable.

Last year, 50,000 soldiers in Shangling were captured and killed. They were afraid that the rebellion of surrendered soldiers would affect the situation of the eight provinces in the northern region. They also understand this.

But you can't move these 20,000 surrendered soldiers in Yongzhou. Now the army has enough food and supplies. How can you make up your mind to kill them? Isn't it too cruel?

Please think twice. This matter is of great importance. How can you explain to the military governor in the future..."

"Woman's opinion!" Bai Qi shouted angrily, threw the Chinese book heavily at Wang He, stood up and yelled, "I am the commander of the first army. I am ordered to cooperate with the military governor to launch a strategic offensive against Yongzhou. As for everything else, I don't care about anything else.

Do you still know what the Governor said? Anyone who blocks the road to my Jingwei Camp, whether it is a human or a ghost, is an obstacle. Since these 20,000 prisoners are unwilling to obey the general's advice, he is the enemy!

No kindness is needed to treat enemies!"

Wang He was speechless when he was shocked, and could only look embarrassed. He bowed and repeated: "General, please think twice before the last general. As long as these Yongzhou soldiers teach well, they will definitely be willing to obey the arrangements of the military supervisor..."

"Enough, don't say anything more!" Bai Qi strode to Wang He and pulled him up from the ground, "I don't have that much time to spend on such trivial matters. Teaching? That's the matter of the appeasement department!

Don’t say that the general’s command has not brought the people from the Pacification Department here now. Even if he has brought them, he will not have time to teach them nonsense. Do you understand how powerful the soldiers are?

If we delay one more day here, who can guarantee that there will be more resistance to recovering Yongzhou in the future? In short, the general has decided that these 20,000 surrendered soldiers must all die tonight!"

After saying that, Bai Qi roared loudly outside the tent: "General Chen!"

Chen Wu got the order and immediately entered the tent, bowed and said, "I am here, what instructions does the general have?"

Bai Qi said: "Immediately summon the brothers of the Northern Palace Army to gather outside our tent. I have important matters announced!"

"Abide by the order!"

When Chen Wu got the order, he left the tent in a straightforward manner. Wang He closed his eyes and could only sigh helplessly.

...

The night is as bright as ink, dark clouds cover the moon, and the earth should have been solemn, but a sinful killing quietly unfolds under this quiet night sky.

"Shoot the arrow~~"

"Shit ~~"

With a command, the bow and crossbow strings broke through the air. With the flames, the dense cold light turned into falling meteors and poured down.

"Puff puff puff puff puff puff..."

“Uh~~”

In the camp of prisoners, a shrill whine sounded and the surrendered soldiers in Yongzhou who were still sleeping could not have imagined that their misfortune would come.

"Bai Qi! You are a man who slaughtered! You must die a good death~"

Dong Feng, who first reacted, had a very unwilling roar towards the executioner outside the camp.

But soon, a dense rain of arrows in the air pierced towards his head...

"Fight with them~"

"Damn the Far East Barbarians, I won't let you go even if I become a ghost..."

Several waves of arrow rain fell, and the camp that imprisoned prisoners was completely in chaos. They kept running around each other, trying to avoid the attack of the deadly arrow rain...

"Kill~"

"Drink~"

But obviously, the Far East Army, who had made up their minds to kill, would not give them a chance to escape. With Chen Wu's order, the soldiers of the Northern Army who were forming a formation slowly walked into the camp with their spears and shields, and ruthlessly poked the bodies that had come into view to the ground...

The blood shone through the sky, dyeing half of the night sky red, and the miserable hissing sounds had not subsided for a long time...

Bai Qi stood outside the prison camp and watched all this coldly. Wang He beside him looked as if ashes, and looked at Bai Qi's pupils with a faint sense of fear.

For the first time, Wang He found that this cynical comrade who was about the same age as him on weekdays was so strange and terrible, which made him feel awe of him and could not get rid of it...
