Chapter 1566
Surrounded by Young Master Liu's scheming and [-] cavalry, the five thousand Turks could not resist the double pressure and surrendered.

No matter how Su Char and Su Lucha boosted their morale, the remaining thousands of people had no intention of continuing to resist.

As for what they thought in their hearts, it was because the situation was not as good as others, and they didn't want to die under the dragon cavalry for nothing.

Or Liu Mingzhi's sentence, you Khan must have told you not to die in vain, or there is hope that it will play a role that will not be known to outsiders.

At first, the Turkic people who followed the two of Suchar still had the intention of following the leader to fight.

But those Turkic people who were separated and leaderless chose to lay down their weapons and surrender under the pressure brought by the [-] trapped troops.

When the first Turkic who didn't want to die put down the scimitar in his hand, the atmosphere quickly spread.

One, two, three, thousands of Turks put down their weapons one after another.

No matter how Su Char screamed through the entrapment army in the middle, it was useless.

Once the morale of the army is lost, it is very difficult to regain it.

Half a day later, after clearing the battlefield, the entrapment army escorted more than 4000 Turkic captives and captured food and grass, and returned victoriously towards Dalong Yingzhou.

During the period, the two of Suchar wanted to draw their swords to commit suicide, but they were stopped by Young Master Liu. They were two daring iron-blooded men. People collect it for their own use.

Thousands of troops are easy to get, but a general is hard to find. An excellent general is often worth thousands of troops.

It's just that when the two were escorted, the aggrieved eyes staring at him made Young Master Liu no longer have much idea of ​​being able to take the two under his command.

However, Liu Mingzhi was not discouraged, let's try his best, whether he succeeds or not, he can only take one step at a time.

5 people escorted [-] captives and rushed towards Yingzhou without any pressure. Liu Mingzhi took up the map and looked at it carefully.

As the sun set, [-] soldiers and horses had already rushed to Shanhaiguan, so Liu Mingzhi put away the map in his hand.

Glancing around, Liu Mingzhi suddenly noticed that something was wrong with Cheng Kai who was riding with him on horseback. Young Master Liu curiously looked at Cheng Kai, who kept rubbing his fingers on the scabbard, and asked slowly: " Cheng Kai, what's wrong with you? Before the national war started, we won a great victory and won a beautiful battle. Why do you look unhappy!"

Cheng Kai's black scabbard paused, then turned to look at First Young Master Liu with a puzzled expression, and glanced at the Turkic captives with some complicated eyes.

"Marshal, the last general said something that shouldn't be said. You should understand that we don't really need prisoners."

"In addition to the main battle army in Yingzhou City, there are more than 5 auxiliary soldiers who are enough to repair the city wall in time and supply thunder stones and rolling logs for the main battle brothers."

"Even if these [-] Turkic people were escorted back to Yingzhou, they could be said to be tasteless. They were tasteless to eat, and it would be a pity to discard them."

"The last general really can't figure out why you want to capture them when you can wipe them out easily."

"The grain and grass we store in Yingzhou are limited, and the grain and grass from the household department have not arrived. Whether it can be supplied in time is still a matter of opinion. It is not a small problem to leave more than 5000 prisoners to eat."

"Although we seized thousands of carts of grain and grass, these grains and grass are only a 30-day ration for 20 brothers."

"Besides, there are so many brothers from Longwuwei who are in urgent need of food and grass. Why should these Turkic people be left behind?"

"If they make waves in the city while they are fighting against the Jin Kingdom's enemies, they will end up with more losses than gains. It is still unknown what price they will pay."

"From the end of Xuande's 28th year, the general will first provide disaster relief with you in Qingzhou, to suppress the bandits in the south of the Yangtze River, to the Western Regions, and to the army's departure to the north. The general will know that the commander-in-chief has never been an indecisive person."

"But this time the end is really confusing, I don't know what is going on in your heart."

"The killing of prisoners is inauspicious? The commander-in-chief should not care about these fallacies. During the expedition to the Western Regions, how about the commander-in-chief in Che Shiqian country?"

"Forget it, I won't mention what happened in the past. If the commander-in-chief feels that issuing this order will have a bad impact, I will be willing to do it for you."

"It doesn't even take a cup of tea to deal with five thousand captives."

"The last general doesn't care about the ominous death of prisoners, the motto of impending doom, for the sake of the dragon, the last general is willing to wash the enemy army with blood."

Liu Mingzhi frowned slightly, and his pupils shrank slightly as he looked at Cheng Kai, whose eyes were flickering with murderous intent.

"Cheng Kai, when did your murderous intent become so serious? Capture alive is more successful than a head!"

Cheng Kai lowered his head silently: "Marshal, following you, the last general has already been made an earl, and there are thousands of households in the city. At the age of the last general, military achievements are no longer important."

"The last general is mainly worried that if the five thousand captives are not dead-hearted and do something in the chaos, it will be detrimental to you and your brothers, Commander."

Liu Mingzhi looked at the more than 4000 prisoners behind him, then looked at Cheng Kai, sighed silently, patted Cheng Kai's shoulder lightly, and took the horizontal knife in his hand into his own.

Pulling out the horizontal knife, Liu Mingzhi looked at the several gaps on the blade and the slight smell of blood in the scabbard, and put the blade back into the sheath.

Lightly throwing the horizontal knife to Cheng Kai, Liu Mingzhi stared at the setting sun in the sky and became a little dark.

"Cheng Kai, you are one of the many brave fighters under my command. The life-threatening friendship between our brothers is not one or two years, but ten years."

"It can be said that the time spent with you old brothers is longer than the time spent with my third brother Liu Mingjie, who is a compatriot from the same mother."

"You also said that you know that the commander-in-chief is not an indecisive person. When I faced Suchar just now, the commander-in-chief said that it would be effortless to kill these five thousand Turkic people."

"But I didn't do it, don't you wonder why?"

Cheng Kai was startled, and shook his head with a puzzled expression.

"Commander, you let the last general go into battle to kill the enemy. It's okay for the last general to charge into the battle, but the last general really can't do things that take a lot of brains. Is the last general stupid? Please enlighten me, commander."

"Cheng Kai, I would like to ask you, how many troops are still stationed in the three cities of Yunzhou, Ganzhou and Suzhou under the command of Grand Marshal Yasukuni Yunyang?"

After thinking for a while, Cheng Kai blurted out: "There are about 19 masters, assistants, and recruits, and less than 20 brothers."

"You are so handsome, what are you doing asking this question all of a sudden?"

"Don't worry, I'll ask you again, how many Turkic cavalry have the Turks going south this time?"

"33! If you add the Turkic people who will follow Yunshu's grain and grass, there will be no less than 5 to [-] troops after assembly."

"Oh yes, the strength will not be less than 35. Although the army under the command of Lord Yasukuni is guarding the city, do you think they can resist all the Turkic people without entering our country?"

"As long as a Turkic iron cavalry detours into the hinterland of my dragon, it will be a wolf into a herd. Even if it is about 5000 soldiers and horses, it will set off a bloodbath."

"Once word gets out that we beheaded five thousand Turkic captives, do you know what terrible results will happen?"

"Behind the six gates is the hinterland of my dragon. It will take time for the common people to clear the walls and clear the country, do you understand? When we kill the captives, it's just a matter of shooting with a knife, but it will also cause a chain reaction at the same time."

"Do you know what dire consequences will happen?"

Cheng Kai was stunned for a moment, pondered for a moment and understood what Young Master Liu meant, and his puzzled eyes became a little panicked.

Seeing Cheng Kai's reaction, Liu Mingzhi knew that Cheng Kai had understood what he meant.

"Cheng Kai, people don't have long-term considerations, and they must have near-term worries. The battlefield is based on killing at any time, but blindly killing is not necessarily a wise thing."

"Subduing others without fighting is the best strategy."
