Carrying AK into Ming Dynasty
Chapter 119 Unforgivable
Chapter 119 Unforgivable
In the city of Datong, there were those chasing the defeated soldiers and those escorting the captives. They were in a mess.
The people in the city didn't know what happened, they only knew that there were shouts of killing everywhere outside the house, and all the people didn't know to go in, so they could only close the door and hide in the house, shivering.
Another sleepless night.
The east is gradually showing a fish belly. Although the Mid-Autumn Festival has just passed, the withered grass outside the city has already turned frost.
These years, the autumn wind can no longer be described as bleak, cold and biting, everyone knows that it is another difficult winter.
Within three days, Taiyuan Prefecture and Datong Prefecture were restored one after another, and the faces of the soldiers of Qianhusuo and Xuanfu soldiers were full of joy.
After all, these two border cities are both high and thick fortified cities. If they are evenly matched, in three days, let alone two cities, without five thousand soldiers to fill the pits, there is no way to attack one of them by force.
In the Battle of Datong, nearly [-] soldiers of Wei Penghong's main attack, beheaded more than [-] militiamen, and captured more than [-] soldiers.
Most of the militiamen became prisoners in their sleep, and a small number of them rushed out disheveled and became ghosts under the knife of Xuanfu soldiers.
How to deal with the more than [-] civilian army prisoners became the focus of discussion among several people.
Chang Yu, Zu Qiuqing and others from the Qianhu Office of Wansui Mountain all died in Linxian's offensive and defensive battle, and suggested killing the prisoners as an example.
As the chief soldier of the Xuanfu, Wei Penghong fought the most with the militia and hated the militia the most. He suggested that all the captives be escorted to the capital and let the court handle it.
Most of the others also expressed their opinions around these two plans, some suggested execution on the spot, and some suggested escorting them to the capital.
However, Liu Hongjian was not very satisfied with both opinions.
Thousands of households in Wansui Mountain are all young people, and they don't know the serious consequences of killing prisoners, not to mention that they plus Xuanfu soldiers currently have a total strength of more than [-] people, and there are not as many prisoners.
In case someone leaks the news, there will be an uprising... Another bloody storm will be set off.
And if you have a criminal record of killing prisoners, who would dare to surrender to you in the future, I am afraid that if they see you coming to attack the city, they will all fight you to the end, the gain outweighs the loss!
The most important point is that no matter how hateful the peasant army is, they are still Ming people. To be precise, they are Ming people who can’t get enough to eat. All they do is just want to survive. If there is food to eat, who will eat enough? I was so desperate to do this precarious business.
And what the traditional soldiers represented by Wei Penghong said, it seems more appropriate to escort these militiamen to the capital, but how many guards are needed to escort more than [-] people to the capital?
How much food will be wasted along the way?
What's more, there are a group of ministers in the court who have never fought a war or seen the misery of the people, and a group of nobles who only know that the peasant army is burning, killing and looting everywhere, but they don't know why the people don't eat minced meat.
Based on the court's attitude towards the peasant army, there is no doubt that the end of these militiamen is still to be executed, but there is an extra high-sounding reason, to accept the destiny of heaven, and to punish lawlessness.
Such a muddle-headed death is not only a waste of time and money, but also meaningless. In Liu Hongjian's view, it is simply too wasteful.
More than 8000 people, not more than 8000 sheep, don't they just want to have enough food, just give it to him.
"Quiet!" Liu Hongjian waved his hand to make everyone stop.
Everyone, including Wei Penghong, immediately stopped discussing. Yes, the uncle has the final say here. No matter how much is said, the uncle still has to make a decision.
"I understand your opinions in general, and you all worked together with me to return most of Shanxi to Ming Dynasty, and the credit will naturally be insignificant.
But the official believes that keeping these prisoners of war will be more effective than handing them over.
Therefore, Ben Bo decided that all the prisoners of the bandit army who are over 35 years old will be regarded as low-ranking citizens and will not be allowed to participate in the imperial examination or do business forever. "
His heart is available, but his crime cannot be forgiven!
Winter is coming soon, and the coal mine affairs should be prepared as soon as possible. These are free labor. In this harsh winter, as long as there is something to eat, Liu Hongjian is not afraid of them running away.
Hearing what the uncle said, everyone looked at each other in blank dismay. Before they could communicate, Liu Hongjian continued.
"In addition, none of the bandit army's generals with more than a hundred officials can stay. Mr. Wei, I need to trouble you to send a special person to screen this matter. You must not let any general go. Oh, that old Bi's nephew Bi Yuntao is not counted!"
If you really want to find some scapegoats among the bandit army to appease the hatred of the Ming army and the people, these generals should be the best choice.
Compared with those ordinary militiamen who just want to eat, these generals are the root of all evil. What they plan is not just to eat, they have become greedy and want more.
Even if you soften your heart and let them go, these generals will not miss you, and will only look for opportunities to continue to rebel. Such things happened a lot in the late Ming Dynasty.
In the final analysis, these generals have already enjoyed the pleasure brought by power. The so-called transition from frugality to extravagance is easy, but from extravagance to frugality is difficult.
Release a group, kill a group, and deter the remaining group. Without the shackles of those greedy generals, the remaining people can all be used by Ming Dynasty, and there is almost no need for training. They are ready-made sources of troops.
Although Chang Yu and Wei Penghong were limited by their own class, they didn't quite understand why the uncle treated the captives so kindly, but they didn't have any objections and handed over the promise.
You are the boss, so you can do it like this, anyway, if something goes wrong, we don't need to be responsible for it.
"There is one more thing, and it is the most important one!" Liu Hongjian knocked on the table and began to focus.
"If we do this well, we'll be rich!"
Thanks to book friend Piaoxiang diyun for the reward of 100 coins, thanks to book friend Piaoxiang diyun for the reward of 200 coins, thanks to book friend 5335 for acting, squirrel who loves tomatoes for the reward of 500 coins, and thanks to book friend Fatty Shenzhen 700 coins as a reward, ashamed, there will be another update in a while.
