"Captive?" Mu Jing also began to have some headaches.

As the saying goes, it's easy to fight a war, but it's a little harder to clean up the mess.

What he wants is to be a soldier and fast.

Those who were killed were either buried or burned directly, and it didn't take long or much energy, but the soldiers who became prisoners were a huge trouble.

First of all, he has to give a part of his troops to keep an eye on, which has already held him a lot of troops.

In addition, we have to guard against their rebellion, not only to prevent it, but also to give food, more than 10,000 prisoners, and the food consumed every day is an astronomical amount, even if Chen Cang is taken back now, with the full support of the beneficial state, it is very difficult to raise it like this.

The key is that Mu Jing is going to raid Chang'an now, but once he is held back by some of his troops by these captives, he will suffer a lot.

"Lord, we have a lot of casualties, the soldiers' morale is also very low, the combat effectiveness is only seven or eight percent at most, if the strength is weakened again, even if we successfully arrive in Chang'an, it will be difficult to do anything!"

Zhang Liao said in a low voice.

"But we can't ignore these captives!" Xu Shu gritted his teeth and said: "Xiliang soldiers have always been wild, if too few troops are left to take care of them, even if they don't have weapons, they can't watch it, and when the time comes, let them rebel, we will suffer from the enemy!" ”

"Left is not right, nor is it right!"

A captain said fiercely: "Just kill it!" ”

"No!"

Many generals walked out, knelt on the ground, and said to Mu Jing: "Lord, since ancient times, the murderer has violated the way of heaven and humanity, and he will be spurned by the people of the world, absolutely not!" ”

Mu Jing looked at the captain who came out and proposed, and felt cold when he thought about it, these more than 10,000 lives, can you really kill them.

He shook his head, then said, "Killing prisoners is something you can't do!" ”

Even if he has fought on the battlefield for many years and learned to be ruthless, he can't do such contempt for life, fighting on the battlefield, and assuming his destiny, which is helpless, but after the war, he can't absolutely not be an executioner.

"If you don't kill it, it will drag down our march and hinder our strategic deployment!"

"Guys, is there a way to get the best of both worlds?"

Mu Jing's eyes were lifelike, and he glanced at the generals.

"My lord trusts me?"

Suddenly, Pound stood up, he found a military doctor, treated the injury, and rushed to the middle camp, at this time he should have been silent, but he didn't know why he came forward.

He instinctively wanted to stand up, and then arched his hand to Mu Jing and asked in a low voice.

"Naturally believe!" Mu Jing replied magnificently: "A certain family has always used people without suspicion, and a certain family will never doubt you!" ”

"The lord gave me the Pang Zi camp, and I promise to keep an eye on them!"

Pound asked for an order: "Never let them have the slightest chance to rebel, and they will not be allowed to delay the lord's affairs!" ”

He said to himself in his heart: I'm not for Mu Longtu, I'm for these innocent Xiliang soldiers, I can't bear to see them die after the war, so I will stand up.

It's kind of a self-soothing.

"Really?" Mu Jing squinted, looked at Pang De, and said.

"I would like to make a military order!" Pound said.

"My lord, no!"

Someone suddenly said: "Captain Pang is a Xiliang person, and he is a general, and the time for attaching to my Minghou Mansion is too short, I don't know if he will be soft-hearted in the face of these Xiliang prisoners, if he is soft-hearted for a while, causing these prisoners to escape, it will be a great ......disaster for us in the future."

He almost didn't say directly, whether Pang De would collude with these Xiliang prisoners and flee back to Xiliang directly.

"Shut up!" Mu Jing snorted coldly, interrupted the words of the captain, and said: "I said, there is no suspicion in employing people, and there is no need to suspect people, Ben Hou trusts Captain Pang, since he has already promised Ben Hou to fight for Ben Hou for three years, Ben Hou will never doubt him for half a point!" ”

"Lord ......"

There are still people who want to speak, after all, it is not only one person who does not trust Pound, but many people.

"There is no need to discuss this matter again!"

This time, Mu Jing was dictatorial, and he shouted in a low voice: "Pound! ”

"In!"

"Now I give you the power to supervise these captives, and even the power to dispose of them!" Mu Jing said: "You can choose to let them go, or you can choose to surrender them, but you must ensure that I don't have to worry about the future!" ”

"If because of their rebellion, the strategic deployment of Daowu fails, you will be guilty of this crime!"

"Yes!" Pound gritted his teeth and surrendered.

"The matter of the captives will be settled, the order will go down, the various departments will be integrated, tomorrow at noon, the vanguard will go first, and in the early morning of the day after tomorrow, the army will be drawn and the troops will go to Chang'an, I will come to Chang'an City within three days!" Mu Jing said categorically.

A lot of time has passed.

Now that the army is in Chang'an, he doesn't know how much influence he has, but he knows that it must be fast, the sooner the better, and the faster the more it can affect the trend of the bloody battle in the entire Guanzhong.

………………

After the meeting was dispersed, the various departments began to prepare, and after the war, they were able to clean up the battlefield, and now they were in a hurry to pull out the camp to the east, and the commanders of the various departments were too busy to touch the ground.

Xu Shu stayed, he was a little puzzled, so he wanted to find Mu Jing to solve his doubts.

"You're not a careless person who believes in Pound like that?" This is what Xu Shu doesn't understand: "Once Pang De reverses, he has tens of thousands of Xiliang prisoners, which will be fatal to us!" ”

"Will Pound be the opposite?" Mu Jing smiled and asked Xu Shu rhetorically.

"It's unlikely, but it's ......"

"Wouldn't that be enough?"

Mu Jing said softly: "Yuan Zhi, between people, a little more trust, if I don't give Pang De trust, Pang De will never trust me for the rest of his life, do you understand!" ”

"That's too risky!"

"Don't risk anything!" Mu Jing raised his head and put his hands behind his back: "There are three points of certainty, you can already do it, there is five points of hope, then you must not hesitate, there is no matter, it is absolute, but if you don't do it, then there is absolutely no hope!" ”

"You want to reclaim Pound?"

"Isn't that obvious?"

"Not only did you let Pang De guard the prisoners, but you also gave him the power to dispose of these Xiliang prisoners, I'm afraid it's not simple!" Xu Shu keenly felt Song Shan's wolf ambition.

"What do you think I'm thinking?"

"Surrender!" Xu Shu thought for a while and said: "Xiliang soldiers and horses have always been elite, these prisoners who can survive from the battlefield are the most elite part, once they can supplement the losses of the Mu army in this battle, then the Mu clan's combat effectiveness will be directly restored!" ”

"But we've just beaten you to the death, will they surrender to me?" Mu Jing smiled.

"Others won't, but Pound, there's hope!" Xu Shu sorted out all the clues: "The lord gave his trust to Pang De, if Pang De did not live up to the lord, he would inevitably offer his ability because of your trust, including the surrender of this batch of Xiliang soldiers, these Xiliang soldiers directly surrendered to the pastoral army, they will not be willing, but if they are controlled by Pang De, it is different, because Pang De is a Xiliang person!" ”

"I can't hide anything from you!" Mu Jing clapped his palms.

"But the lord is too risky, in case Pound does not accept the lord's trust, then the lord knows what he will do!" Xu Shu asked in a deep voice.

"If Pang De can't go back to the Longxi Army, how many choices will he have?" Mu Jing was silent for a moment, did not answer the question, but asked Xu Shu rhetorically.

"This?" Xu Shu thought for a while and said, "I'm afraid there aren't many left!" ”

"So I want to make myself his only choice, do it with human hearts, even if he is not grateful to Dade, I don't believe that he will stab me at this time, if I look at the wrong person, then I deserve it!" Mu Jing said confidently and domineeringly: "You deserve to die!" ”

………………

A few days later.

Chang'an City.

This city, which had glorified the Han Dynasty for hundreds of years, was frightened by the sudden sound of horses' hooves.

"What's going on?"

"Where did the sound of horses' hooves come from?"

On the city gate, the captain who was crumbling on the city guard suddenly woke up, he looked into the distance, and faintly saw the dust rolling.

"It's not good, it's cavalry, it's coming at us, there is an enemy attacking the city, quickly close the city gates!"

The captain of the garrison shouted loudly.

"Close the gates!"

"Inform the imperial court that there is an enemy breaking into the city!"

At the head of the city, there was a sudden chaos.

"Who is the enemy army, dare to come to Chang'an!" The captain of the city gate widened his eyes, looking at the cavalry getting closer and closer, and gradually became clearer, and the battle flags held by the banner-bearers were very uniform.

Minghou!

Shepherd!

This is the battle flag that belongs to the Ming Marquis Mansion, and it is also the announcement after the arrival of the world-famous herdsman.
