In the Longzhong general's tent, Xu Ping looked at the sand table on the table and listened to Wang Kai's report on the battle situation, and couldn't help but frown: "What? The two sides have not yet fought? What the hell is Yu Zanghuama doing? Gao Daquan occupied Anyuan Village, and he was watching. If he didn't take it back, most of his troops would be pierced into his pocket and he was dead!"

Wang Kai was also helpless and said, "Supervisor Jie, according to what came from the front, it was not that Yu Zang Huama did not want to take back Anyuan Village, but that he could no longer control his subordinates. Now the foreign tribes in the valley attacked and killed each other, and were in chaos. Our people could only watch from afar, and it was difficult to rush up and fight now. Those foreign people were crazy, no matter whether they were their own people or not, just kill them!"

"It's just that I put some water on, and even Anyuan Village can't be washed away. The thieves collapsed by themselves?"

Xu Ping looked at the sand table and frowned tightly. He calculated it all, but he didn't calculate this result. Now he was not afraid of the enemy being able to fight, but he was afraid of fighting too much. Organized troops, no matter whether they were killing or captives, could always predict the result. Now tens of thousands of people have lost their organization and are crowded in a valley that costs dozens of miles long. How can he clear the battlefield become a problem. Moreover, the two sides of the Sandu River are not so steep that they cannot climb, and the valley is messy. At that time, I don't know how many thieves will climb up the two sides and drill into the jungle of the surrounding mountains. How could Xu Ping send people to search for this vast mountain? Moreover, the mountains are the territory of each Fanluo under Qinzhou. If one is not good, it may cause Fanluo to attack and kill each other. The thieves who caught the invading Fanluo will be sent to Qinzhou for rewards. This is a policy that has been decided long ago and cannot be changed. If it is not sent to Qinzhou, who doesn't want the slaves sent to the door for free? Fanluo wants to rob it!

"Zhi Niang, is Yu Zang Huama's mind shit in his mind when he leads such an army to invade Qinzhou?!"

Faced with this difficult situation, Xu Ping, who had never sweared, couldn't help but curse. At this time, he couldn't help but think of a line from a movie he had watched in his previous life. Fifty thousand pigs could not be caught in three days and three nights. What he faced now was really like catching pigs in the mountains. No magical strategy was of no use. He had to wait first and let the thieves kill themselves first before talking about it.

After watching the sand table for a long time, Xu Ping couldn't think of any solution, so he had to sit back on his chair and said to Wang Kai: "Immediately send people back to Qinzhou, and order Zhong Shiheng and Liu Huan to recruit the nearby tribes of Fanluo, and prepare to cooperate with us to catch the invading thieves. Tell them to strictly order the Fanluo tribes that dare to kill good people, and rebel against them and kill them! The Fanluo's heads paid the rewards according to the low rewards, and the living people paid the rewards according to the high rewards, and three to one, so that Fanluo would try to get the living people as much as possible! Alas, even if only one-tenth of the Fanluo thieves ran into the mountains, there were thousands of people. The chaos that thousands could make was not small! We are not able to live in peace this winter!"

Wang Kai whispered: "Jingshuai, the prisoners of tens of thousands of people, people eat and chew horses, and it costs a lot, we are not as good as us."

Xu Ping waved his hand: "You must save this little food and not kill indiscriminately. The army supervisor and killing prisoners are ominous. This is the ancient saying. Don't think that the ancients were fools. It's a reason to propose this point. We kill Yu Zanghuama's surrender army and go north. What should we do when facing more Yu Zanghuama? Everyone fights to the death, and we have to use human lives to fill it. We are the king's army and come from the north. As a result, we are the king's army. As a result, we have blood. Who will believe us? What is the king's army? Not only do we get the king's order, but we must also practice the way of benevolence and forgiveness, and use the king's way to conquer the enemies and govern the people with the king's way to be called the king's army! Remember, what we want to recover is the homeland of the Han and Tang Dynasties. The land is my land and the people are my people. How can we kill indiscriminately? Today, if we are so flawed, how can we distinguish ourselves from the traitors of Dangxiang?"

War is a killing poke, but killing poke should only be on the battlefield and must not be expanded. This is not only a moral issue, but also the optimal solution to the victor. It is a lesson summarized by the ancients with blood and tears. A benevolent and righteous teacher can be regarded as a slogan, and various auxiliary results can be obtained from doing so, which is the true value of a benevolent and righteous teacher.

War is ultimately a political issue. If you cannot view war from a political perspective, you are not a qualified commander and do not have the ability to conduct strategic command. Before attacking the core area of ​​Dangxiang, the biggest challenge of the Song army was to compete with Dangxiang for the small tribes that swung between the two. Whoever could win them would gain a strategic advantage.

Although it is said that it is a prisoner who kills prisoners, Xu Ping will not take Xiang and bully seriously. He will not hesitate to consider the need to kill prisoners from a political perspective. After all, war is given priority to achieving political goals, and others are secondary.

Wang Kai hesitated and said, "But collecting tens of thousands of people at once will not be a big burden on Qinzhou's money and food, but even if these people stay in Qinzhou, it will be a big trouble. The thieves are not my race. If there is something wrong with Qinzhou, they will inevitably cause trouble!"

"Why should they be allowed to live in Qinzhou? Eating, drinking and living for free is better than when they were in their own tribe. How can such good things happen in the world? When the war ended, they would dislodge the captured thieves to Fengzhou, Chengzhou and Jiezhou, and transport grain and grass there. The army supervisors, our food and grass came from Sichuan and Sichuan. Although there were waterways, they were going upstream, and there were a large number of thieves and thieves. The thieves were so hard that many people died of exhaustion on the road every year to transport grain and grass. The grain transferred from Sichuan and Sichuan was a small matter, but the thieves were heavy duty, and the people of the states along the way were very miserable. This time, the captured thieves were removed from the people of the states along the way, and it was a merit to die of one less person!"

Wang Kai looked at Xu Ping and opened his mouth, unable to say anything anymore. He originally thought that Xu Ping was kind-hearted and could not bear to kill and kill people, so he tried his best to capture the invading foreign people, but it seemed that it was not the case.

The Sichuan-Shu area is the most densely populated area today. The land is fertile, and it is called the country of Tianfu. From there, the transfer of grain and grass is not only tens of thousands of people, but even hundreds of thousands of people is not a problem. The difficulty is not collecting grain and grass, but how to transport it to Longyou. There are waterways along the way, and the transportation capacity has indeed increased a lot, but this way upstream is also passing through the mountains, with the rapid flow of water, which requires a large number of boaters. The most miserable thing in Longyou is to recruit boaters along the way is to collect boaters. The boaters who die of exhaustion on the grain transport route every year are not a small number, no less than a big battle on the front line.

It doesn’t require any technology to tie it together, and someone can just drive it with a whip. Capturing the enemy, giving it food and drink but not killing it is a benevolent act of the king’s army, which can win the hearts of the people nearby. Sending it to several southern states to transport grain not only reduces harassment to the local area, but also expands the capacity of grain and grass. More troops can be used in the direction of Qinfeng Road, so why not do it?

There are not so many fancy things in war. In the final analysis, it is to change one's own people more and more, making fewer and fewer enemies. This is Xu Ping's real intention to resolutely not kill prisoners. In this era, manpower is precious, and as long as he can breathe, it will be useful.

At this moment, Li Zhang came in from outside and handed over the official document in his hand and said, "Fu Qiang Village has been sent, I just received it!"

Xu Ping opened the viewing and found that it was Sang Yi who wrote it and asked the General's Mansion. According to the scheduled plan, the floating bridge behind the Water Gate behind the Fuqiang Village was already built, and a large group of people could cross the river at any time. Sang Yi should send troops to counterattack the enemy troops gathered at the mouth of Chuangu, Sandu. However, because Gao Daquan released a flood, Yu Zang Huama's troops collapsed and attacked each other and attacked and killed each other continuously. At this time, the Dangxiang Army that had set up camp in front of the Fuqiang Village. The detailed rewarders had not yet built the siege equipment. In order to protect themselves, they first brought people to fight with the foreign troops that rushed over, which was difficult to separate.

How could Sang Yi send troops in this situation? Send someone to ask Xu Ping for instructions. The Fuqiang Village will not send troops for the time being, so just wait and see if it changes first.

Xu Ping handed the official document to Wang Kai and said, "I have drawn up a military order to Sang Yi. The current situation is beyond our previous expectations. If the previous order is taken back, they can not send troops for the time being. When will they go out of the city to attack, he can make his own decisions, or send new orders from the General Manager's Mansion. Alas, it ends up becoming such a mess, which makes people a little overwhelmed."

In this era, the army was under high pressure, and the thundering was not an unimaginable thing, but the chaos similar to the thundering in broad daylight was beyond Xu Ping's imagination. At this time, the Song army joined in to cause trouble, of course, they waited until the invading thieves had enough trouble and finally went out to clean up the mess.

Influenced by his impression of his previous life, Xu Ping thought the army of these small tribes was too strong. In fact, this chaos was their normal manifestation. At that time, Li Lizun also led tens of thousands of people to invade Qinzhou in a fierce manner. He was defeated by Cao Wei's charge, chased him for dozens of miles, and the number of beheadings was almost overtaken by Cao Wei's troops. Those dead foreigners back then probably encountered the same thing today. Most of them were not killed by the Song army, but by their own people in the chaos.

According to military law, one rank and fourth-class gifts were awarded. The old system was to reward three staples of money and three pieces of silk, and then count military merits. This was not a small number. At that time, Cao Wei's troops were attacking and killing each other, and they were afraid that they would go up to cut off the head and receive rewards. The memorials reported to the court naturally would not mention these details. No matter what the truth is, the number of enemies killed was the Song army bravely killed the enemy. Cao Wei did this to reasonably seek benefits for his subordinates, so it was naturally understandable, but it misled Xu Ping, who inferred the combat effectiveness of the foreign army from the court reports. This was the system's fault, not Cao Wei's fault, but also one of the reasons why Xu Ping no longer calculated military merits based on the head.

After Xu Ping changed the money system in the Sansi, the rewards in the army were no longer made of silk, but directly distributed money. In other army, it was still a great temptation to obtain a reward of one-level to five-chariots according to the old military law. However, whether this is good or bad for the war, at least according to what Xu Ping saw now, the benefits are not enough to make up for the disadvantages that come from this, or it is better to not talk about military merits according to the head.
