I have lived forever since the end of Qin Dynasty

Chapter 60 Reason (Come in and tell everyone)
Seeing that Chen Luo did not support the surrender, Xiang Yu was relieved.

Of course he knows the saying "kindness does not control soldiers".

When a judgment needs to be made, Xiang Yu will choose to execute it without hesitation as long as it can be exchanged for a result that matches the price paid.

But now it is not fighting on the battlefield.

His heart is quite resistant to attacking a group of unarmed people, which is completely different from the feeling of killing the enemy in an upright duel on the battlefield.

Of course, if everyone wanted to kill the surrenders to protect the interests of the Chu army, then he would naturally not go against everyone's thinking to save those surrenders.

But fortunately, Chen Luo coincided with his thoughts.

Thinking of this, the corners of Xiang Yu's mouth raised slightly, and he solemnly looked at Chen Luo who was talking freely.

"... Even if the saying that killing prisoners is ominous is absurd, but if you think carefully, in most cases, killing prisoners may indeed have worse consequences."

Looking around at the generals beside him, Chen Luo could see the puzzlement on their faces.

He chuckled lightly: "At first I said that there were three reasons to persuade you not to kill the prisoners, and now I will explain them to you one by one.

One of the reasons for not killing prisoners is that killing the soldiers here will cause every Qin army we encounter later to fight us desperately.

Think about it, everyone, if fighting is death, surrender is also death, if you put yourself in the same place, how would you all want to surrender and die humiliated in the pit?
Just as Changping Baiqi pitted 40 Zhao people in the pit, and then Qin soldiers besieged Handan for two years, but none of the Zhao people were willing to surrender. Isn't it because Changping's 40 surrendered soldiers are vividly remembered?

Even though Brother Yu is the most brave man in the world, but with only one ear, all Qin soldiers will fight to the end. If our army wants to win, how many dead soldiers will it take? "

The two rhetorical questions shook the group of people who were not determined to murder the soldiers.

They killed the soldiers to ensure the safety of the next march.

But according to what Chen Luo said, they killed the surrendered pawns here, and every Qin army they met next knew that surrender was also death, and they would fight with them to the end.

Of course, Chen Luo knew that the example he gave of Bai Qikeng killing Zhao Guojiang was still different from the current situation.

The 40 soldiers were almost all of Zhao's vital forces. After the murder, they would destroy Zhao's national fortune. Even if Zhao people were attracted to defend Handan, it would still do more good than harm to Qin.

But now they only captured nearly [-] Qin soldiers. If they killed them, it would make the follow-up Qin army fight to the death without surrendering.

Chen Luo continued to speak slowly: "The second reason for not killing and surrendering soldiers is that the world has suffered from the Qin Dynasty for a long time, and it is not the hometown of the Six Kingdoms, and Guanzhong is the same.

The needs of the people of Qin and the needs of the people of the world are indeed stable.Craftsmen want less corvee, farmers want to be able to plow their fields, merchants want light tariffs and no robbers, scholars want to read the classics of sages and sages without restrictions.

If so, who wants to do the opposite?
Promising to divide the fields in Guanzhong and the descendants, who will follow them, turn their backs and attack Qin, is to restore the old story of Muye. "

If the first reason is to analyze the consequences of killing the surrendered soldiers, then the second reason he said is to explain the benefits of not killing the surrendered soldiers and how to deal with them.

Even those generals who were originally steadfast in their hearts towards killing and surrendering began to waver at this time.

Even Long Qi, who was the first to put forward the suggestion of killing and surrendering, showed hesitation on his face, thinking that he would wait for Chen Luo to give the third reason before deciding whether to stick to the proposal of killing and surrendering.

Seeing that the people around were gradually being persuaded by him, judging from their expressions, at least half of them started to support his decision not to kill and surrender.

Chen Luo took a deep breath, rubbed his chin and said: "As for the third reason why I oppose killing surrender, it is that I have to do it, but I really can't.

Qin's army has nearly ten thousand soldiers, and our army is only more than [-]. If you want to kill them all, what can you do?

If you use swords and soldiers to add to your body, you are afraid that the blade will roll and the slaughter will not be finished; if you dig a pit and bury it, or the Qin aid will arrive and the pit will not be deep.And the Qin soldiers are not bound, they can do it all, and if they want to kill them, it will take two days.

When the matter is settled, Puyang has long been prepared. The city is strong and the Qin army is united. It will be difficult for our army to attack. "

His final argument was back to reality, and he brought up the biggest problem with the surrender, which was that it would take a long time to complete.

Xiang Yu's Chu army was only [-] strong, even if there were [-] pigs here, they might not be able to kill them all in three days and three nights.

And what the Chu army lacks most now is time.

If the soldiers of the defeated Qin army fled back and reported the news here to the Puyang defenders, then the opponent would definitely not dare to go out of the city to fight against the Chu army.

Facing the Qin army relying on the strong defense of the city, it can be said that the difficulty for them to win has increased a lot.

Many generals looked at each other in blank dismay, and then turned their attention to Xiang Yu and Long Qie.

Long Qi was the one who first proposed to kill the soldiers, while Xiang Yu was the one who could make the final decision.

At this time, Long Qi sighed, cupped his hands and said: "What Chen Zuoyin said is as precious as gold and as unshakable as a mountain, it made me suddenly wake up like drinking sweet nectar. Can I say anything to refute it?"

Seeing the dragon and being persuaded, even if there are still people who want to kill the soldiers, it is impossible to jump out and express their own opinions.

Chen Luo said with a smile: "General Long has said it before, and I'm just talking about it. Although I am contrary to your previous opinion, I believe that we are all thinking of Da Chu and have no selfish intentions."

If Long Qi's proposal was rejected in public, and the other party recognized his point of view, then he still had to give Long Qi a step down.

Glancing at Chen Luo with his lips pursed, Long Qie's heart grew a little grudge, which disappeared without a trace, leaving only his deep admiration for Chen Luo.

At this time, the scene became quiet again, and everyone's eyes were focused on Xiang Yu.

Although Chen Luo persuaded them all, whether to implement it depends on whether Xiang Yu agrees or not.

Sensing that everyone was looking at him, Xiang Yu laughed loudly and said, "I'm not an arbitrary person, so it's possible that I will forcibly oppose you after discussing something?
Now that Jiang Ning has finished stating the reasons for not killing the Qin army and surrendering soldiers, and you all agree, then we will implement this plan. If you encounter any problems that need to be solved in the middle, just ask Jiang Ning for questioning. "

Chen Luo frowned slightly, realizing that Xiang Yu's words were a little strange.

So after thinking for a while, he asked in a low voice: "Brother Yu, why don't you deal with it yourself when you encounter problems halfway? I'm really unfamiliar with military matters."

Xiang Yu looked to the northwest with sharp eyes: "In the third point Jiang Ningyou said just now, the words 'Puyang is already prepared' reminded me. Next, I will lead the cavalry to attack Puyang City. Before the garrison Qin army receives the news that our army has defeated the ambush here, I will break into the city!"

In the fifth month, the Chu army left Pengcheng.

Ji Yu went to Dongjun, crossed Jishui, was ambushed, led hundreds of soldiers, shot and killed Qin generals, and broke them vigorously.The [-] Chu troops looked at each other across the river, everyone was startled, and bowed to Xiang Yu.

When all the generals crossed the river and gathered together, Xiang Yu asked: "Qin has many soldiers, but the army has enough food, what should we do?"

Long Qie said: "Please do all the pits, so as to avoid future troubles."

Xiang Yu was silent, refused, and asked Chen Luo: "What does Jiang Ning mean?"

Chen Luo replied: "It's not auspicious to kill prisoners, I'm afraid there will be disasters."

Luo also argued with reason, and all the generals agreed.Countless soldiers were killed alive, and the reputation of benevolence spread to Guanzhong, and the people of Qin admired him. ——"Historical Records Yangxiahou Family"
