At the beginning, Qin Shi Huang traveled to my home

Chapter 400: Battle of Changping (2)

But that's how war is. There will always be casualties in war. Many, many people die every day.

Bai Qi did not think there was anything wrong with doing this, and so did the other generals. They saw something even more cruel. On the battlefield, it was either you die or I live, and everyone wanted to live, so naturally it depended on who was stronger.

The stronger one will naturally survive.

Many people in front of the sky curtain felt that there was no problem at all. Of course, there were also many people who felt that Bai Qi was too cruel. Wouldn't it be good to live in peace?

The barrage was also discussing this matter, and some people said things like we should ask for peace. That was called being ridiculed by the group, and I was directly scolded to the point of becoming autistic.

No one dared to ask for peace anymore. As soon as they saw that the person was from the Song Dynasty, they had already guessed it. They didn't even need to guess to know that he was from the Song Dynasty.

The other people in the Song Dynasty didn't want to say anything anymore. They felt very ashamed and had already lost all their face. Losing it once or twice was nothing.

“Senior Bai Qi, please don’t get me wrong. I just feel that war is too cruel and I’m a little scared. I also know that war is bound to happen. Only if we are strong enough and have absolute voice can we prevent other countries from invading,” Li Wu said. In the past, their country was too weak, so they were bullied, looked down upon, ridiculed, humiliated, and invaded. So everyone in the country knows that only by becoming strong can they avoid being bullied.

"What the immortal said is that with the world map given by the immortal, in the future, the whole world will only belong to our Tang Dynasty," Li Jing said. Their Tang Dynasty is powerful, and now that they have the world map, they can't wait to attack other countries.

Especially in places where the immortals say there are immortal seeds, no one will complain about the vastness of their land.

When Emperor Taizong of Tang heard Li Jing's words, he laughed out loud, as they completely expressed what he was thinking.

The barrage of comments started arguing about this, with everyone saying that the world should only have the Qin Dynasty, the Han Dynasty, the Ming Dynasty, and so on. They all wanted to conquer the world and take over all the land on the world map.

After hearing this, Li Wu nodded and said, "Senior Li Jing, you guys need to work hard. We don't want to learn any foreign languages ​​in the future. It would be great if there was only one language left in this world." Of course, this is unlikely.

Just in later China, especially in the south, there are countless languages, and each ethnic minority has its own language.

But fortunately, there is Mandarin, and basically many people can understand it.

"Let's continue talking about Senior Bai Qi's deeds," Li Wu brought the topic back when he saw that the topic had drifted off to another place.

The three of them nodded and started eating. Soon, the whole roasted lamb was eaten up.

The robot Li Yan was grilling other delicacies nearby. Looking at these foods I had never eaten before, I couldn't help but drool. They were so delicious.

"Zhao Kuo was left with nowhere to go, so he regrouped his troops and tried to break out again, but ultimately failed and died on the battlefield.

The Zhao army was defeated, and hundreds of thousands of surrendered Zhao soldiers were killed by you, Senior Bai Qi.

Including the soldiers who died in previous battles, Zhao State lost a total of more than 45 people in the Battle of Changping.

After this battle, the State of Zhao was unable to recover and suffered severe damage.

There are many rumors that Senior Bai Qi killed more than 400,000 Zhao soldiers, but in fact, it should not be that many.

Many people asked, the Zhao army had already surrendered, why were you, Senior Bai Qi, still so cruel and wanted to kill them all.

This question is actually not difficult to answer.

First of all, Senior Bai Qi, you are worried that those surrendered soldiers will rebel in the future. After all, they are not your own people. This worry is normal.

The second issue was food. Both the Qin and Zhao states invested a lot of manpower, material resources and financial resources in the Battle of Changping.

The Zhao army surrendered, which meant that Qin had to take them back. How much food would be needed for so many people? At that time, Qin did not have enough food to feed the surrendered Zhao army.

I can't afford to raise them, and I can't release them. What else can I do in the end? I can only kill them all.

Of course, under the circumstances at that time, Senior Bai Qi was right to do so. The person must not be released. It is impossible to let the tiger return to the mountains. It is even more impossible to bring it back. There is no point in bringing it back without food.

Alas, there is nothing we can do about it. If possible, I think Senior Bai Qi would not want to kill so many people," Li Wu sighed. Although Bai Qi was called the God of Killing and the Butcher of Man, Senior Bai Qi was also a living person with flesh and blood.

When Bai Qi heard that he had actually done such a thing later, he was a little confused for a moment, but he soon reacted. If it happened again, he might still choose to kill the surrendered troops and not leave any hidden dangers for the Qin State.

"What the little immortal said is true. At that time, there was nothing we could do. There was no way out," Bai Qi raised his head and closed his eyes. Those were human lives. How could he not feel guilty? But what was his choice? He could only do so.

The barrage of comments: The people of Zhao have already cursed Bai Qi half to death. How can they not hate Bai Qi for killing so many enthusiastic people of Zhao?

There were also people who spoke up for Bai Qi, and another round of quarrel began.

Li Jing and Han Xin also looked at Bai Qi with sympathy. If it were them, they might not be able to be as decisive as Bai Qi.

"After the Battle of Changping, Senior Bai Qi, you planned to seize the opportunity to pursue the victory and destroy the State of Zhao in one fell swoop.

However, due to the persuasion of Prime Minister Fan Ju at that time, King Zhaoxiang of Qin did not agree to your request, Senior Bai Qi.

Qin allowed Zhao and Han to cede land in exchange for peace.

In 259 BC, Qin, Zhao and Han signed a ceasefire and withdrew their troops.

After you, Senior Bai Qi, knew about this, you also became enemies with Fan Ju.

After that, Senior Bai Qi has been staying at home on the pretext of illness. Even though Qin's repeated attacks on Zhao were unsuccessful, Senior Bai Qi refused to return.

In 257 BC, King Zhaoxiang of Qin continued to send more troops to attack Handan but failed to capture it.

Hundreds of thousands of Chu troops attacked the Qin army, and the Zhao army sent small teams to harass the Qin army's rear, causing the Qin army to suffer heavy losses.

King Zhaoxiang of Qin personally went to your residence, Senior Bai Qi, and forced you to lead the troops to war, but you refused and said some words that made King Zhaoxiang of Qin angry.

Later, King Zhaoxiang of Qin once again sent Fan Ju to your residence, Senior Bai Qi, to request your return, but you again refused on the grounds of illness.

King Zhaoxiang of Qin was furious and demoted you, Senior Bai Qi, to a soldier.

Because Senior Bai Qi was ill, we did not set off immediately.

Later, news came from the Qin army's defeat, and King Zhaoxiang of Qin took his anger out on Senior Bai Qi.

You are ordered to leave immediately. Senior Bai Qi, you have no choice but to set off despite your illness. This is not the end yet.

Even so, King Zhaoxiang of Qin still refused to let Senior Bai Qi go. He thought that Senior Bai Qi was still unconvinced and even dared to complain, so he sent someone to give Senior Bai Qi a sword and asked him to commit suicide.

When you are dying, looking up at the sky, you don’t understand what you have done wrong, and don’t know what you have done wrong to end up like this.

But you thought of the Battle of Changping and the Zhao army that you killed, and you felt guilty, so you committed suicide. "
