"Get ready, there are 2 minutes left!" Lu Bu shouted loudly, and when everyone was ready to witness this historic moment, a reader suddenly said, "MD, the garbage author has updated!"

Good guy, all the readers who were swiping the screen for a moment disappeared.

"The author of the garbage must be spying on the screen and playing us on purpose!" Lu Bu The Number One Under Heaven said cursingly, then turned on the phone without hesitation, and began to look at it.

Because it was updated at a fixed time, the garbage author did not make readers wait this time, and threw out all three chapters in one breath.

After reading it, everyone felt a feeling of not knowing how to speak, and many readers who had finished reading these three chapters lost their smiles.

It's not that these three chapters are abusing the protagonist, on the contrary, the two protagonists are still living very smoothly and happily. At the same time, they have not experienced any failures and are still victorious against the enemy.

But most people couldn't see a smile on their faces, and some even held their chests in pain.

So what happened in these three chapters?

Very simple, Xiang Yu killed the prisoner.

These three chapters describe the whole process in a very flat tone. Xiang Yu and the allied forces of the princes marched to the Xin'an area with 20 Qin army captives. The conflict between the captives and the allied forces was already very serious.

First of all, because of the hatred between the coalition forces and the state of Qin, no matter how miserable Qin was against the six countries, the six countries were so cruel to these Qin captives.There are all kinds of torture and humiliation on weekdays, so it is not difficult to imagine, anyway, there is a lot of anger accumulated among the Qin prisoners.

And as Xiang Yu led the Allied Forces of the Six Nations to approach Qin, many prisoners began to have illusions.

There is a rumor gradually circulating among the captives that Zhang Han tricked them into surrendering to the coalition forces, and now the coalition forces are attacking Qin.

It is a good thing to be able to win, but if they lose, the coalition forces will definitely take their captives back to Kanto, and their wives and children in Qin will undoubtedly die.

So everyone has to be prepared, once the coalition forces fail, they can counterattack the coalition forces at any time, so that they can make meritorious deeds and save their wives, children, and children.

Soon this statement reached Xiang Yu's ears, and Xiang Yu began to feel that these captives of the Qin army who surrendered were a big trouble.

Secondly, a bigger trouble appeared, that is, the coalition forces did not have enough food and grass.

At this time, the scale of the entire coalition of princes was extremely large, with a total of more than 40 people, and the supply of food and grass only relied on the Kanto region, so there was a shortage of food and grass soon.

However, the coalition forces did not have much food and grass, and they had to give some of the prisoners of Qin to eat. Although in order to ensure that these prisoners had no resistance, the rations given to them were only about 1/4 of their daily needs, so that these prisoners could not even walk. The strength is very scarce, and basically there is no resistance.

But even 1/4 is a very large number, so there were many voices within the coalition forces, the most obvious one being "Why should we distribute our food and grass to these Qin people?"

In this case, Xiang Yu found himself in a very bad state.

On the one hand, the hearts of these Qin prisoners are unstable, and they may betray themselves at any time. At the same time, the coalition forces also have a lot of resentment towards these prisoners because of the problem of food and grass.
All kinds of problems were added together, so several confidantes around Xiang Yu collectively persuaded Xiang Yu that it is better to kill all these captives to avoid trouble in the future.

Xiang Yu finally agreed to this suggestion, but there is no description in the history books how Xiang Yu killed the 20 soldiers of the Qin army. The statement in the historical records is that Xiang Yu killed the 20 soldiers of the Qin army overnight. It is located in the south of Xin'an City.

Of course, this statement actually has a lot of flaws. The first method of killing people is pit killing, that is to say, driving the living people into the pit, and then the army outside collectively uses bows, arrows and flames to kill all the soldiers in the pit. Then cover it directly with soil.

In this way, no matter whether there are still people pretending to be dead, they are all buried alive.

This is a very efficient way of killing people, but it is not efficient enough to kill 20 people overnight.

The simplest point is that this hole is enough to trap 20 people, and it cannot be dug out in a short while.

And if the pits are dug in advance, then these soldiers of the Qin army will definitely get the news, and if they don't do it, they will trigger a rebellion in advance.

So later in the TV series "Legend of Chu and Han", Xiang Yu borrowed the urn of Xin'an City to kill people.

Wengcheng is a means of defense for the city. It is often located behind the city gate, and a second section of the city wall will be designed, so that once the city gate is breached, there will be a second city gate to resist the enemy.

At the same time, the area between the second city gate and the first city gate will also become a natural pit. As long as the defenders keep shooting arrows down on both sides of the city wall and throwing some boulders and gold soup, it will be destroyed. Capable of killing large numbers of enemy troops.

Wengcheng is actually a large prison with walls, which can firmly trap the enemy army in this prison.

According to the interpretation of "Legend of Chu and Han", Xiang Yu first tricked the 20 Qin soldiers into the Wengcheng, saying that he wanted to give them a lecture.If after all the 20 Qin troops entered the Wengcheng, they immediately closed the city gates on both sides, and then directly threw boulders, rockets, and kerosene into the Wengcheng from the city wall, and used all AOE methods to kill people quickly. The 20 surrendered Qin soldiers were all killed.

And because these soldiers don't have enough to eat on weekdays, they have no strength to resist at this time, and they can only be killed alive in the end.

This method is theoretically feasible, but there is a prerequisite, that is, the urn city is large enough to accommodate 20 people.

But the Wengcheng that can accommodate 20 people throughout the ages, except for the Wengcheng in Yanjing more than 1000 years later, there is no other city that can do this.

So these two ways of killing are actually unrealistic, so what is the most realistic way of killing?

The answer is very simple, it is still murder, but it is not a one-off murder, but a batch of murder.

In the archaeological excavations of later generations, people did find dozens of mass graves around Xing'an City, so most of the corpses inside have decayed, but the corpses from thousands of years ago can still be found, which is basically confirmed. The authenticity of Xiang Yu's murder of 20 Qin troops.

The dozens of mass graves also show that these soldiers of the Qin Army could never be driven into one pit and killed in a single brain, but entered dozens of mass graves one after another.

So in Liu Xu's writing, the whole process became that Xiang Yu first announced that he would repair in Xin'an, and stopped the entire coalition army in Xin'an.

Then let the coalition forces dig dozens of huge pits that can accommodate tens of thousands of people, and then Xiang Yu told the captives that our coalition forces don’t have enough food and grass to feed you, so I decided to let you go and let you find food by yourself of.

It's just that there must be some nobles from Qin among you, so before releasing you, you must be screened one by one, about 1 people will be screened each time.

After the screening is complete, I will let you go directly.

So every time, 1 Qin troops happily followed the Chu army out of the barracks, and were taken to one of the mass graves, surrounded by tens of thousands of strong and armed coalition soldiers.

So even if these Qin soldiers found themselves driven into the pits and realized what had happened, they were still no match for the coalition forces, and they could only be pitted and killed alive in these mass graves until 20 Qin troops were killed. Until all the troops are killed.
