Chapter 75
Seeing Zhang Han's expression when he spoke, all the generals were beating their hearts.

If it is a proper strategy, then I must have said it outright just now. Only in the case of "killing [-] enemies, [-] self-defeating" would be hesitant.

For a while, the tent fell into silence.

In the end, Xin Sheng took the lead to break through and said: "General Zhang, please be blunt. Soldiers never tire of deceit. Lord Wu'an flooded the city of Yan in Chu in the past, and took this as an opportunity to capture the city of Ying, almost destroying the state of Chu."

In his opinion, the reason why Zhang Han showed distress was probably because the next strategy would hurt the peace of heaven, just like flooding Yancheng, which would cause hundreds of thousands of deaths in the city.

Xin Sheng met an old soldier who personally experienced the Battle of Yan and Ying. He recalled the scene of that day. The beams of the houses in Yan City were blackened by water, and the streets were full of swollen corpses.

The Chu land is currently the territory of the Great Qin in name, and the people in Pengcheng have "tested" that they are the people of the Great Qin.

When such human tragedies happened on the land of Qin State, all the people who died were the people of the Great Qin State. It was completely different from the previous years when Lord Wu An drowned and killed the people of the enemy country.

Even if there is a reason for the incident, Zhang Han's use of such a method will definitely leave a bad impression in the heart of the benevolent Majesty. If someone uses it as a reason to attack in the future, it will easily ruin his future.

Gritting his teeth, Xin Sheng got up resolutely and said: "If you want to reproduce the old things, I won't live for a few years anyway, you can cut it first and play it later, and then I will propose the whole plan in the memorial, and let the old man bear the infamy of General Zhang during his lifetime.

I followed the old general Wang when the Great Qin was sweeping the world, and defeated the armies of the six countries. Today, the Great Qin is in crisis, so why should I be so old? "

Deafening!

The emotions of the generals in the tent were affected by Xin Sheng's words, and they stood up one after another: "General Zhang, please say clearly, I would like to play together, and His Majesty will definitely agree."

After all, the law does not blame the public.

Let Xin Sheng and Zhang Han go to the hard top, they will definitely not be able to bear it.

But when so many of them wrote a letter together, things were different.

Above the court, they all have their own past, if they are all severely punished, I am afraid that Fusu will be overwhelmed by the swarming petition memorials.

"Old General Xin, sit down first." Zhang Han said calmly, "Don't get excited, everyone, my plan is not what everyone thinks."

The originally excited crowd looked at each other, unable to understand the meaning of these words for a while.

Regarding this, Zhang Han took a deep breath and said, "Everyone should have their own considerations about the current situation in the world.

With Pengcheng right in front of us, returning troops to save Handan and Hanoi counties would be a waste of money and an extremely stupid strategic choice.

And if we have the intention to leave, I am afraid that the Chu army in Sishui County will bite us and put us in an even more embarrassing situation. "

But in fact, Qin Jun really wanted to withdraw, and Song Yi and Xiong Xin had to celebrate each other.

As for the pursuit?

They are self-aware.Hmph, that will definitely be gone and never returned.

Of course, Zhang Han must judge according to the worst possible situation, and he cannot take it lightly.

After a pause, he continued in a deep voice: "But the passage between Guanzhong and us is like a fragile throat, and the Chu army in the two places is like a fishbone stuck in the throat, making our army extremely uncomfortable, so they must be eliminated.

But it is not the best policy for us to return our troops. In comparison, we should send troops from Guanzhong. "

After hearing this, the generals were puzzled.

Zhang Han had already analyzed it before.

The main force of the Qin army in Guanzhong needs to be stationed at Hangu Pass and Wuguan Pass, which cannot be deployed.If only a small number of troops were sent to encircle and suppress the rebels in Handan, it would be nothing more than giving away the head, and it would have no effect at all.

Zhang Han slightly closed his eyes and said: "I don't mean to ask His Majesty to send the elite from Guanzhong to encircle and suppress the rebels.

As far as I know, there are nearly 30 prisoners and sons of slaves in Lishan. If these people are pardoned and told that they can use their military exploits to offset their crimes, then they will definitely agree to fight in armor. "

When the generals of all dynasties recruited troops, they definitely gave priority to choosing good family sons.

Liangjiazi has a strong desire for meritorious service, and he is very disciplined when marching, and will not surrender unless it is absolutely necessary.

As for the prisoners in the prison, they were hardly considered by the generals for conscription. The reasons for this were complicated. The most important point was that after the prisoners went to the battlefield, their discipline was very low, they did not obey orders, and they might even lose their positions in the middle of the battle.

Looking at the horrified generals in the room, Zhang Han rubbed his brows helplessly.

It is really difficult for the public to understand my unruly thoughts.

It's just that he has his own reasons for making such a proposal.

Taking a deep breath, he explained: "When I was in the Shaofu, I learned about the composition of Lishan prisoners, and a considerable number of them were soldiers of the Great Qin Dynasty and received military training.

As to why these people became prisoners... I can only say that many of them did not actually commit serious crimes. "

Zhang Han can’t say these words too clearly, there are too many involved, the water is very deep, he can only say that he understands everything, and then read it in detail. Sometimes the relevant interests are too involved, and he dare not explain too clearly, and there is nothing he can do if he doesn’t understand.

The other generals exchanged eye contact, expressing that this was indeed an untouchable topic, and if they delved deeper into the origin of the existence of these prisoners, it would involve the emperor's tomb.

Xin Sheng pursed his lips: "I support General Zhang's proposal. Amnesty will enhance His Majesty's prestige, and organizing these criminals will eliminate the danger in Handan and Hanoi."

Seeing Xin Sheng supporting him, Zhang Han breathed a sigh of relief.

In fact, when Fusu asked him to lead the army to quell the chaos, he had considered whether to release some prisoners and incorporate them into the army.

But at that time, what I was going to lead was the elite of the Great Qin Dynasty, with sufficient combat power, so letting the prisoners join the army was superfluous.

After Xin Sheng expressed his opinion, most of the generals in the tent chose to support it, and the remaining few stubborn generals did not expressly object, but remained silent.

"Then make a decision like this. Tomorrow I will go up and ask His Majesty to pardon the Lishan criminals to form an army." Zhang Han said, "But what I am most worried about is whether someone in Guanzhong can organize and command such a large number of criminals. Therefore, after His Majesty agrees to my request, I have to trouble General Xin to lead [-] elite soldiers to Handan to join them."

"No." Xin Sheng nodded.

----

Hearing that there are so many prisoners, the generals are panicked.

Luo laughed and said: "In the past, King Wu led all the princes to defeat Zhou, and Zhou also sent slaves to serve as pastures for his troops. Isn't it just like today?"

With this statement, the army began to decide. ——"Historical Records Yangxiahou Family"
