The best ring

The current situation in Linshui City has trapped Peng Chuan. He can neither advance nor retreat. He can only maintain the threat to Linshui City through long-range troops and temporarily refrain from charging Linshui City.

But this is not a solution.

Before the battle started, Peng Chuan was worried that the army of Shuiyue Kingdom would help Qi Feng.

And his worries are becoming a reality. According to the news from the spies, the army of Shuiyue Kingdom has arrived, and the vanguard is the army of Yangyu Pass that he was worried about before. In addition to sending the army of Yangyu Pass to help Qi Feng, the emperor of Shuiyue Kingdom also dispatched an elite army from the palace of Shuiyue Kingdom, and has now entered the territory of Heishui Kingdom.

In short, the emperor of Shuiyue Kingdom was determined to keep Qi Feng. In a sense, Heishui Kingdom was the gateway to Shuiyue Kingdom, and the emperor of Shuiyue Kingdom obviously did not want to lose this gateway. Qi Feng had always been obedient, but he was not very familiar with Peng Chuan, so the emperor of Shuiyue Kingdom naturally hoped that Heishui Kingdom would be in Qi Feng's hands.

Peng Chuan, who learned the news, was naturally not in a good mood. Once the army of Shuiyue Kingdom arrived, and he had not yet taken Linshui City, then there was a great possibility that his people would be attacked from both sides, and at that time, the possibility of defeat was very high.

This battle had already gambled his own life, the lives of his soldiers and the lives of their families, and Peng Chuan must not lose!

"General!" Xue Jin came over and said in a low voice: "This is not a solution. Brothers think that we should be ruthless when it is time to be ruthless. We cannot be soft-hearted on the battlefield. As long as we go to the battlefield, no matter whether it is the elderly or children, they will not be innocent if they die."

Obviously, Xue Jin and others have also seen the current dilemma. If the situation continues like this, then they will all be finished.

Xue Jin is not afraid of death. When he decided to revolt with Peng Chuan, he was ready to die, but he did not want to die in a cowardly way, and he did not want to die in obscurity.

Xue Jin certainly knew Qi Feng's sinister intentions, but they really had no better way now. Only by treating those elderly, women, and children equally can they get through the current predicament. Otherwise, they will only be defeated.

Peng Chuan said in a deep voice: "Does everyone think so?"

"Yes." Xue Jin nodded: "General, this matter can't be delayed any longer. The old man Qi Feng thought that you, the general, dare not attack the people, so he came up with such a dirty and treacherous plan. We can't let him succeed. What's more, it was Qi Feng who forced those old, young, women and children to go to the battlefield, not us. So, even if those people died on the battlefield, they should blame Qi Feng, not us."

Peng Chuan was moved after hearing Xue Jin's words.

Xue Jin's words made sense. In fact, Peng Chuan also understood these, but he couldn't get over the hurdle in his heart. If countless old, hot, women and children died at his hands, I'm afraid he would never escape this shadow in his life.

After thinking about it, Peng Chuan still shook his head and said: "No, I can't do that. If I do that, what's the difference between me and Qi Feng? It's even more excessive than him."

"But General, if you don't do this, then this Linshui City can't be taken down." Xue Jin said anxiously.

If possible, Xue Jin certainly didn't want to do anything to those people, but the current situation forced them to do so. Apart from that, he couldn't think of a better way.

"Think about other ways, there must be other ways." Peng Chuan said: "Even if I really ordered the massacre of those old and hot women and children, I'm afraid some soldiers would not be able to accept it."

In fact, Peng Chuan was more anxious than Xue Jin. After all, these people followed him in the uprising because they believed in him. If the uprising failed, they would all die, and he would fail their trust and even cause them to lose their lives. He felt uneasy.

However, if he really had to do something to those old and hot women and children because of this, Peng Chuan couldn't do it.

Moreover, the soldiers were also human beings. It was not something that everyone could accept for them to massacre ordinary people without weapons.

"As the saying goes, kindness cannot lead the army. It's easy to say, but it's really not easy to do it." Peng Chuan thought to himself.

Peng Chuan had been a general for many years, so he naturally knew that kindness was not good for the army. In the past, he was also a general who clearly distinguished between rewards and punishments on the battlefield. He knew that kindness was a very dangerous thing on the battlefield.

But this time, he was really stumped. There were tens of thousands, or even more than 100,000 old and hot women and children.

"General, what if we still can't think of a solution? The army of Shuiyue Country is getting closer and closer." Xue Jin asked.

Xue Jin knew very well that this order was not easy to give. If Peng Chuan really gave the order, he would definitely be nailed to the pillar of shame by historians in the future. No matter what the cause of this incident was, the massacre of tens of thousands, or even hundreds of thousands of old and hot women and children was not something that anyone could accept.

But for the sake of the overall situation, Xue Jin had to force Peng Chuan to make a decision.

Peng Chuan looked towards Linshui City again, gritted his teeth, and said coldly: "If there is really no way, let the brothers let go and fight!"

Xue Jin was secretly relieved when he heard Peng Chuan's words. In this way, he could still accept it.

At this time, a messenger ran over and said to Peng Chuan: "Report to the general, the army from Yangyuguan has arrived sixty miles away from us, and is expected to arrive outside Linshui City tomorrow. "

"You came so fast!" Peng Chuan's face became more serious when he heard the messenger's words.

Peng Chuan has been paying attention to the army in Yangyuguan. This army is the elite force of the Shuiyue Kingdom, and it is also the vanguard of the Shuiyue Kingdom to support Qi Feng this time. Their arrival is likely to Change the situation in Linshui City.

"General!" Xue Jin said again: "The enemy is very close to us and will attack us at any time. It's time to make a decision!"

Yes, the sixty-mile journey can be completed in about two days. The Yangyuguan army will go on another journey today and it is very likely that they will arrive outside Linshui City tomorrow. Once that time comes, they can It's really like being attacked from both sides.

In his heart, Peng Chuan asked himself to be cruel. He also knew that the current situation was serious and it was not the time to continue to hesitate.

Just when Peng Chuan was about to give the order, he suddenly thought of Wu Fan.

It can be said that the reason why he was able to escape from Linshui City and the uprising was successful was because of Wu Fan. Wu Fan helped him a lot. When he realized that the situation in Linshui City was dangerous, he asked Wu Fan for help. Wu Fan Fan also wrote back to him.
