Chapter 699 Prisoners, I Will Not Let Them Go!

Gong Lince's face gradually darkened, his seemingly grumbling complaints made him feel what it meant to be a proud soldier.

This group of people dared to disregard the court supported by the three factions in front of him. To some extent, did they also mean not to take the three factions seriously?

"After a few victories, you're starting to be defiant?" Gong Lince said coldly, instantly suppressing the dissatisfaction in the tent.

There was no sound in the Chinese army tent, Su Qitong and Zhang Hu looked at each other and I looked at you, and they all quietly glanced at Meng Shanming who was sitting in a wheelchair.

"Both of you go down." Meng Shanming waved his hands suddenly.

Zhang Hu and Su Qitong bowed their hands together and retreated.

Luo Da'an and Lu Zheng stood behind the wheelchair, one on the left and one on the right, Meng Shanming's eyes met Gong Lince's.

In the end, Gong Lince broke the calm, "Meng Shuai, I understand everyone's feelings. Although the court's decision is selfish, it is also good for everyone. To express his anger, Meng Shuai ordered to cut off the ears of 600,000 captives. Even if the people are put back, those people who lost their ears are a disgrace to the Song Dynasty, and it can be said that they are angry. Zhang Hu and the others are all your old troops, and now they are under your command. They will listen to you , I hope Meng Shuai will let them understand more."

Meng Shanming's expression was calm, and he said word by word: "I won't release the captive!"

Gong Lince narrowed his eyes suddenly, "Meng Shuai, you have to think about the overall situation. If you continue to fight like this, Yan Guo will not get any benefits. It will only hurt both Song Guo and Nanzhou. It is a good thing to have peace talks." !"

Meng Shanming: "It's not time for peace talks yet."

Gong Lince snorted, although he disagreed, he said politely: "I hope to hear from Commander Meng."

Meng Shanming: "Peace talks now? Let the main force of the three million Song army led by Luo Zhao withdraw smoothly to the Song State? Then return the 600,000 elite to the Song State. Has the head of the palace thought about the consequences?"

As soon as these words came out, something in Gong Lince's mind faintly awakened, and he frowned subconsciously.

Meng Shanming continued: "Returning the 600,000 elites, and allowing the 3 million main force to withdraw smoothly, the loss of Song's strength is actually not great, but the local battles have suffered heavy losses. I have been a soldier all my life, and Zhao Guo China, South Korea, and Song have all fought against each other, and they know the importance of national strength in combat. Song's national strength is still there in this battle, far stronger than Dayan, and it can accumulate supplies for World War I at any time. If Song can keep enough elite soldiers From the point of view of me, a soldier of the Yan Kingdom, it will be a huge threat to my Yan, which I cannot tolerate!"

"The head of the palace, the Song Kingdom came in a fierce manner in this battle, but they shot themselves in the foot with a stone. Do you think they will let it go? Especially when they retain their national power and military strength, can they let it go? In my opinion Come on, if they agree to the negotiating terms of the imperial court and withdraw their troops, it is only a temporary strategic retreat in order to save the unfavorable situation due to the temporary situation! The loss of national power and military strength is not large, and they are still far stronger than Dayan. Do you think they Will you really bow your head and admit defeat to the weak and weak Dayan?"

"Once they complete their strategic retreat and stabilize their position again, they will definitely launch another attack on our country of Yan! This is not just speculation, but the current situation of Dayan, which has been tossed into this state by them, Too weak, too easy to bully, like a three-year-old child, the people of Yan Kingdom have difficulty even raising the basic food and grass for the army in the country, who else can they fight if they don't take this opportunity to fight you?"

"Once the Song Dynasty is allowed to make a comeback, it will be difficult to attack the Dongyu River again. Does the head of the palace think that there is still such an opportunity? No, it will be difficult to reorganize the troops. The current opportunity will not be repeated. With it, it will be useless for anyone to command the army to fight at that time, a clever woman can hardly cook without rice, and Dayan is doomed to perish!"

"There is also South Korea! Song State has withdrawn, and Yan State has been tossed to such a weak point. Once Song State withdraws, it should be South Korea's turn to attack Dayan. After South Korea launches an attack, even if Song State does not immediately If we make a move, we will wait until South Korea is almost ready to attack Yan again, Song Guo paid such a high price, it is impossible to sit back and watch the South Korean family take advantage of it."

Gong Lince was terrified after hearing the remarks, and asked in silence for a while, "Wouldn't it be possible to prevent South Korea from sending troops if the fight continues?"

Meng Shanming: "The misfortune is coming to the east! South Korea's coach Jin Jue, I have fought against him, and I know that this person is good at forbearance, good at capturing the best opportunity to attack, he will not easily shoot if he is not sure, this is also the case of South Korea. The reason why people and horses have not attacked Dayan for a long time. Shao Dengyun is still good at fighting. With him in Beizhou, Jin Jue will be afraid. I guess Jin Jue is unwilling to confront the heavy troops assembled in Beizhou unless he has to. He is waiting, he Chen Bing border is waiting for the best opportunity to attack."

"Look at it! You can't let him stare at Dayan all the time, you have to attract his attention to Song Guo. The current situation is a great opportunity. Luo Zhao is young and energetic, greedy for big things, and has created a major strategy for me, Dayan. During the opportunity period, I, Dayan, must not miss it, and must firmly grasp it! As long as our army blocks Luo Zhao's three million troops on the other side of the Dongyu River and cannot return, and then disrupts the internal affairs of the Song Dynasty, it will be within your reach, and Jin Jue Definitely throwing troops at Song State!"

Gong Lince understood what he meant, subconsciously nodded slightly, but hesitated and said: "The current state of Yan does not have the strength to annex the state of Song. We paid such a high price, but ended up making wedding clothes for South Korea. Once South Korea is annexed If we leave Song, I'm afraid we may not be able to accept our affection, and being in South Korea is not good for me, Dayan!"

Meng Shanming: "That's why it's time to really negotiate with Song Guo, and now the negotiation is looking for death! Only when Song Guo is disabled, Song Guo is eager to protect himself, forcing Song Guo to have no way out, will he be sincere Implement the results of the negotiations. You can’t win people on the battlefield, and you can’t make them succumb. It’s unrealistic to expect people to succumb through the power of words in negotiations.”

Speaking of this, Luo Daan waved his hand and immediately turned the wheelchair, pushing him down in front of the map.

Gong Lince followed him to the map.

Meng Shanming took the stick handed by Luo Daan and pointed on the map, "Both countries are weak. After the negotiation is successful, neither of the two countries wants to see the other party fall under the butcher knife of South Korea and make themselves the next ghost under the sword." Only in this way can we unite against the common enemy. After the negotiation is successful, both Yan and Song have a chance to breathe. The two sides strike, and the fighting forces can be assembled northward. Both countries can gather the strongest forces to attack South Korea in the north. At this time Only the joint efforts of the two countries can make South Korea dare not act rashly."

"Conquer the Song State, and the threat to the east and the east of the Yan State will be lifted. After the Song State is settled in the northern part of the Yan State, you can calmly dispatch troops who are fighting with the Song State to strengthen the defense in the north. Together with the Song State, you can protect the There is nothing to worry about in the north. There is a vast sea in the south. There is too much investment in sea warfare, and the possibility of danger in the south is unlikely. In the west, Nanzhou is willing to serve as the barrier to the west of Dayan. Daoye has enough influence on Zhao Guojinzhou. Once Zhao Guo launches an attack , without the court's call, Nanzhou will take the initiative to join forces with Jinzhou to defend against the enemy."

"This is the grand strategy that I, a crippled old man, made for Dayan. The three major factions can implement this strategy, which can temporarily relieve Dayan's crisis! As long as this strategic goal can be achieved, although it seems a bit fragile, it is better than nothing. Fight for a breathing space for Dayan, seize the time to recuperate, and accumulate national power! When Dayan is strong and powerful, who else would dare to attack?"

Gong Lince stared at the map, recalling Meng Shanming's words in his mind, and took a long time to let out a long breath.

For so many years, it was the first time that someone stood in front of him from the perspective of war and pointed out such a comprehensive and grand battle strategy for him. He felt a little shocked in his heart, and many things that he had to deal with hastily due to the situation were organized, and he had a clear mind. decide the direction.

Deeply moved in his heart, he sighed again, "If Meng Shuai refuses to let those captives go, Yanjing may be really in danger."

The suddenly aggressive tone before was gone.

Meng Shanming: "As long as our troops point to the interior of the Song Dynasty, Luo Zhao's attempt to attack Yanjing will not last long in the face of unbearable pressure, and the army must be withdrawn! It doesn't take too long, just seven or eight days is enough The capital is high and wide, easy to defend and difficult to attack. If 200,000 people can't defend it for seven or eight days, I really don't know what use it is to keep those rubbish in the capital? If it is gone, it will be gone. Well, it's better than Dayan gone."

Gong Lince: "It seems that Meng Shuai insists on this!"

Meng Shanming: "You can dismiss me as the general of the Eastern Expedition, or you can kill me and replace me with someone else in command."

The corner of Gong Lince's mouth twitched, he really didn't dare to touch Meng Shanming now, especially after hearing Meng Shanming's words just now, he also saw the attitude of Zhang Hu and others.

He didn't say anything else, turned around and left, ready to re-communicate with Meng Xuan.

After Luo Daan pushed Meng Shanming to the throne, he packed up his things and was about to move.

Lu Zheng, who had been listening for a long time, was shocked. Hearing Meng Shanming's words was an eye-opener. He couldn't help but walked up to Meng Shanming and tried to ask, "Meng Shuai, if you really kill the sixty Ten thousand prisoners, I'm afraid it will have a big impact on your reputation."

"How many years can I live? I am lonely, as long as Yan can win, what is the reputation for? Lu Zheng, remember, killing prisoners in this situation is not only for Song, but also for our own strategy and tactics. Choice. Our army entered the territory of Song State to fight. There was not enough food and supplies, and it had a great impact on morale. I don’t know what difficulties we will encounter later. Yan State has reached this point, and there is no way out. Only then can the situation be saved! Kill the prisoners and make enemies, fearing that the Song army will retaliate, the soldiers who invaded the Song state must not dare to surrender, so they can fight to the death, and the people who fought against the Song army in the country would not dare to surrender!"
