MTL - I Want To Be Qin II-Chapter 1152 Ying Gao's decision
Chapter 1152 Yinggao's decision
Shogunate.
All the generals arrived one by one, unless they were military generals on duty, or as long as they were more than a thousand commanders, they all rushed to the shogunate. This time, Ying Gao did not live in the Handan Palace in order to avoid suspicion.
After all, the defeat of Handan was just a staged victory in destroying Zhao, not a complete destruction of Zhao. Three armies set off at the same time, and only he has achieved corresponding results.
"Although Handan City was broken by our army, the battle to destroy Zhao has just begun. This Handan City has already been occupied by our army. We originally planned to keep a guard and cooperate with the civil servants to receive it."
"At the same time, this general personally led the army to the direction of Wu'an in Yunzhong, and together with General Meng Tian, attacked the army of the Hushui Department."
Having said this, Ying Gao's sharp eyes fell on everyone, and he said with a solemn tone, "Who wants to stay in Handan?"
The shogunate was quiet, and no one answered the call. They didn't want to stay in Handan, but followed the direction of Yinggao Wu'an. In their opinion, as long as Yinggao was there, they would be invincible and invincible.
As long as you follow Yinggao, it is a military exploit.
If you stay in Handan, you basically have no place to use it. Handan City has been conquered, and the next step is to conquer the surrounding areas. It is the civil servants who take over Handan, and their generals can only guarantee stability.
Seeing that no one stood up, Ying Gao could not help frowning. He knew in his heart what the generals were thinking, but guarding Handan was also a difficult task.
Now that Daqin had conquered Handan and the area south of Handan, the rest still belonged to the Zhao people, and he did not have the extra troops to go to each place to defeat them one by one. He wanted to assist Meng Tian to annihilate the living forces of the Zhao army.
Therefore, the generals stationed in Handan are not only a famous defender, but also a general who is decisive and capable of attacking. Compared with Yang Duanhe, Ying Gao prefers Bai Zhong.
Thinking of this, Ying Gao walked to the map, unsheathed the Lulu sword in his hand, and the tip of the sword fell on the map, saying: "Now, our army only controls the area south of Handan, and next, Gu led the army with the sword pointing Wu An, eat this Zhao army together with General Meng Tian."
"However, north of Handan, in Xindu, Lieren, Qujin and other directions, there are still Zhao's castles and Zhao troops stationed there, but our army is not strong enough to occupy them all."
"Especially in the direction of Julu, the most important thing for our army now is to destroy the living force of the Zhao army. As long as the main force of the Zhao army is defeated, the entire Zhao land will belong to our Daqin."
"Therefore, the defender of Handan must be a general who has been on the battlefield, can defend Handan, and can deter generals from all over the world."
"Handan has already fallen into the hands of our army, so we can't lose it again. Tell this general, who is willing to stay in Handan?"
At this moment, Bai Zhong and Yang Duanhe glanced at each other, and they both knew in their hearts that because Wang Ben led the Wansheng Army to the north, at this stage, they were qualified and capable of guarding Handan, and they were the only ones.
At this point, Bai Zhong came out and said, "I will be the one who will guard Handan at the end."
Seeing Bai Zhong stand up, Ying Gao nodded and said, "Gu will leave you 50,000 foot soldiers and 50,000 cavalry soldiers, and then cooperate with the officials to control Handan."
"At the same time, guard the treasury, and cooperate with the people of the court to evacuate the treasury of Zhao State, including Zhao State craftsmen, palace collections, etc."
"No."
Seeing Ying Gao being so cautious, Bai Zhong also nodded his head. His father did not break Handan, but now Ying Gao has broken Handan, and Zhao is just around the corner. Bai Zhong believes that he will definitely stay in Handan.
The next moment, Ying Gao's eyes fell on Yang Duanhe, and he calmly ordered, "Yang Duanhe, you will lead the cavalry of the headquarters, immediately pull out the camp, and advance in the direction of Wu'an."
"No."
nodded in agreement, Yang Duanhe walked out of the shogunate, and the soldiers were very fast. Since the order has been issued, he naturally wants to send troops immediately and go to Wu'an.
When Bai Zhong and Yang Duanhe walked out of the shogunate, there was a lot of empty space in the shogunate for a while, Ying Gao looked at the rest of the people with a solemn tone, and said, "This prisoner of war has many soldiers and soldiers of Zhao Jun. Sick and disabled, there are still 70,000 troops left."
"All of these 70,000 people are integrated into the Central Army, and they are all broken up and integrated into the army. It must be ensured that only one of the Zhao army will be surrendered."
"For this matter, after you wait, tell the chief generals at all levels, the corps commander, the hundred generals, the five hundred generals, etc., if there is an abnormality in the surrender, kill them on the spot."
Hearing the words, the general's face was solemn, and they all knew that even if the 70,000 soldiers were to be recruited into the army, the risk was still very high. Once these people got weapons, they would be in danger.
"Ying general, once these people get weapons, they will be a threat to our soldiers. The last general thinks it is not right." Tie Ying stood up and said towards Ying Gao.
"Well, it's not right for you to know."
Yinggao's eyes flashed a stern look, with a solemn tone, and said, "However, what can I do, do I imitate Lord Wu An again and kill them all?"
"Now that the state of Zhao is about to be destroyed, let them be my Daqin people in the future. The slaughter is too heavy, which is not conducive to my Daqin's rule of Zhao, but if they stay here, 70,000 people will affect Bai Zhong's guarding of Handan."
"And most of these people are young men in Handan City who have just been recruited, and the risk of leaving Handan is even greater."
"When our army goes to Wu'an, don't give them weapons first. During the march, they will be trained, and if they find any dissent, they will be killed without mercy."
"No."
The generals left, and only Ying Gao, Fan Zeng and Zhang Liang, who had just returned, were left in the shogunate. All three were silent and did not speak to break the silence at the moment.
Especially Fan Zeng, he also knew that Yinggao's actions were very dangerous, but he just wanted the army to go to Wu'an, there was no way out.
Leaving Handan City, these soldiers will be in chaos.
Even if it is a pit killing, it cannot be pit killing in the city of Handan.
"General, wait for the army to leave the city, do you want to lower these soldiers?" Fan Zeng's eyes flashed with murderous intent, and he made a gesture of wiping his neck.
"no need."
Yinggao shook his head, explained to Fan Zeng and Zhang Liang, and said, "When Da Qin annexes the various countries, it will require countless manpower and material resources to reorganize the Central Plains, and at that time, these people can be used."
"Killing them is not conducive to Daqin's rule over Zhao. Lord Wu'an did it as a last resort, not to mention that after so many years, even if there is still hatred, it has gradually dissipated."
"At this time, another pit kill will awaken the hatred of Zhao people and the memory of the past, which is not good for Da Qin."
Yinggao rejected Fan Zeng's proposal. He knew in his heart that killing these soldiers would be harmful to Daqin, but most importantly, he was confident that he would accept this army.
"The two of you will also go down to prepare. When the handover is completed, I will point my sword at Wu'an."
