Chapter 396: Killing people and breaking their hearts!
After all, they crawled out of a sea of blood and a mountain of corpses. The military generals of Jiangdong are much more courageous than the civil officials of Jiangdong.
Ye Kun sighed, looked around and said:
"Jiangdong is a land of outstanding people and natural resources. It is a land of great wealth, with many heroic states and talented people. It is rare to find so many loyal and righteous people. It is a pity that Xiao Dequan did not practice benevolence and righteousness, and thus suffered such a defeat. It is a pity and a pity."
Yu Guinong on the side blushed, lowered his head and dared not speak.
Being a traitor and a traitor to one's country is never an honorable thing!
Shen Tai sneered, "Ye thief, give us a quick death. If I blink even once, I'm not a hero."
"Why are you in such a hurry? Are you worried that if you go too late, you won't be able to be reborn as a ghost?"
Ye Kun rolled his eyes and asked again: "You guys are not afraid of death, but what about your family members? Do they want to die with you?"
Shen Tai had a blank expression on his face: "If you want to cut the grass, you must remove the roots. If you overturn the nest, no eggs will be left intact. I don't think you, Ye Thief, will let our family live."
"Bullshit!" Ye Kun was angry:
"Go and ask around. I have traveled all over China and am feared throughout the nine states. Have I ever killed innocent women, children, the elderly, or civilians? If I want to kill, I will kill you on the battlefield. I want you defeated generals to die with a sincere heart, and even ghosts will be afraid of me!"
Shen Tai was stunned and speechless.
He was originally a defeated general, there is nothing to brag about.
Zhuge Feng stepped forward and said with a smile:
"My fellow Jiangdong generals, you have a deep misunderstanding of the King of Hanzhong. In fact, the King of Hanzhong is a man of great benevolence and righteousness, not like Xiahou Chang and Xiao Dequan. Over the years, the soldiers of the King of Hanzhong have conquered countless cities, and have never harassed the people.
If it was your Jiangdong troops who captured Chengdu and Chongqing, I'm afraid you would massacre the cities, rape and plunder, and do whatever you want, right?"
This is how wars were fought in ancient times. Once a city was breached, the troops would be allowed to remain there for at least three days.
During these three days, the victors killed people and robbed money at will, and raped decent women and wives and daughters of officials at will.
Because only in this way can the bloodiness and animality of the soldiers be inspired to fight to the death to attack the city.
Ye Kun's army has strict discipline, and the grassroots generals are all young people who graduated from the Military Strategy Institute. They have faith and quality, and they would never dare to let their soldiers do whatever they want.
Occasionally, there would be bad apples, and Ye Kun would behead them as a public display and send a message to the military camp, and he would never tolerate them.
In terms of discipline, Ye Kun's militia also defeated Xiahou Chang and Xiao Dequan's elite troops.
Faced with Zhuge Feng's questioning, Shen Tai and others were speechless.
Ye Kun sneered, "Take these bastards to the street and see if our soldiers harassed the people, raped or plundered them. Let these bastards know why I won and Xiao Dequan lost!"
The personal guards rushed forward, stuffed several Jiangdong generals into the carriage, and went to patrol the streets with Ye Kun.
Order was initially restored on the streets.
The soldiers were busy and orderly, distributing porridge and food, cleaning, maintaining public order, and rescuing wounded soldiers and civilians.
Seeing Ye Kun, the soldiers saluted together.
Ye Kun rode on his horse and shouted loudly: "Brothers, you have worked hard. Tell me, whose soldiers are we?"
"The people's soldiers!"
"What is our mission?"
"Protect the people and benefit the folks!"
The soldiers answered in unison.
Ye Kun was very satisfied and asked loudly: "What are the three major iron orders of our army?"
"You are not allowed to harm the people, you are not allowed to bully women, you are not allowed to rob money, and those who violate this will be beheaded!"
"Very good, everyone continue with the mission!"
Ye Kun turned around and sneered at Shen Tai and others:
"Shen Tai, can you lead the troops like this? Can Xiao Dequan do it? If Xiao Dequan can do it, I will go into the mountains with my hair untied and hand over half of Jiangnan to Xiao Dequan! Or I will become a slave and lick Xiao Dequan's feet!"
Shen Tai closed his eyes, leaving two lines of tears.
Now he understood why Jiang Dong lost and why Ye Kun won.
After inspecting the main urban area, Ye Kun returned to the big tent and summoned Xiao Dequan's mother.
Xiao Dequan's mother was in her fifties and was respected as the Queen Mother.
The old lady thought she was going to die, so she came to the big tent tremblingly and bowed to Ye Kun:
"King of Hanzhong, my son is ignorant of the power of heaven and fought against you. His failure today is also the will of heaven. I am willing to die. I beg King of Hanzhong to spare my children and others in my house."
Ye Kun stood up and supported Xiao's mother:
"The fire at the city gate affected all the innocent people, the princes' fight for supremacy implicated the Queen Mother, and also frightened all the precious ladies in the boudoir. Ye Kun apologizes here.
Don't worry, your son Xiao Dequan is still in Ruxukou. I will not harm anyone in your family. On the contrary, I will send you to Ruxukou to reunite with Wu Hou Xiao Dequan. "
The old lady couldn't believe it and frowned, "The King of Hanzhong is willing to let us go?"
"Yes." Ye Kun nodded and said:
"Everyone in the mansion can take away the clothes, jewelry, and books they read. But all other money and property must be left behind. You took it from the people, and I will help you return it to the people, to comfort the people of Jiangdong and for post-war reconstruction."
The old lady was so moved that she burst into tears. She bowed and said, "I have always heard that the King of Hanzhong is kind and righteous. Today I know that it is all true. When I go to Ruxukou, I will persuade my son to surrender."
Ye Kun shook his head and smiled bitterly:
"Xiao Dequan hates me to the core and has already surrendered to Xiahou Chang. He will never surrender to me. Old man, go back and ask your family to pack up. Tomorrow morning, I will ask Shen Tai and others from Jiangdong to send you to Ruxukou."
To Ye Kun, these generals of Jiangdong were not considered geniuses.
We have our own military academy, so we can train our own generals who will be better than them!
Of course, if these guys are willing to surrender, they can play a role in stabilizing people's hearts in Jiangdong, which cannot be replaced by others.
Shen Tai was still worried and shouted, "Ye Kun, you are not going to pretend to be kind and let Wu Hou's family go, and then kill them on the way, right?"
Cao Cao has used this trick before.
After Cao Cao captured Jingzhou, he sent Liu Biao's son Liu Cong to the Central Plains, but killed him on the way and lied to people that he was killed by bandits.
"You are a villain, so you regard all the heroes in the world as villains!"
Ye Kun sneered and waved his hand:
"Release Shen Tai and the other commoners and let them move freely. Shen Tai, you can go to the city and gather your old subordinates to ask them if they are willing to go to Ruxukou with you. Those who are willing to continue to follow Xiao Dequan can go. I will send you a ship and will not stop you."
Shen Tai was completely shocked. He was stunned for a long time before asking, "Aren't you afraid that we will gather our old subordinates and start an uprising in the city?"
Ye Kun laughed: "Shen Tai, you think too highly of yourself. Before the city was captured, you had soldiers and generals, and I was not afraid of you. Now that you are defeated, how can I still be afraid of you? Go and gather your old subordinates and see how many of them are still willing to follow you!"
At this moment, Jinling City has settled down.
Everyone is busy eating, seeing a doctor, repairing houses, taking a bath and sleeping, and looking for lost family members. No one would want to continue fighting!
The city gates are controlled by Ye Kun's troops. Anyone who dares to rebel will be asking for death.
Shen Tai and others were listless and rolled out of the tent.
Ye Kun continued to finish off the enemy and personally escorted them out, saying with a smile:
"Generals, if you are unhappy in the future, you can come back to me. I have a military training hall and a military academy that specialize in training generals. When the time comes, I will teach you how to avoid losing the battle."
Shen Tai was furious and turned around and said, "King of Hanzhong, you are killing me and destroying my heart. You are bullying me too much!"
