It should be back to Nanling, after all, Lu Zhe came here to prevent anyone from receiving the monstrous merit of annihilating Baiyue, and since the battle has been fought, the matter of cleaning up the battlefield no longer needs Lu Zhe to pay attention to it personally.

Don't let a certain general receive such a credit Lu Zhe dares to say that there is absolutely no sinister intentions, let alone fear that someone will gain great prestige after obtaining this credit or something, after all, in the real sense, this war is only planned by Lu Zhe himself, whose credit can beat Lu Zhe?

Lu Zhe did this to avoid causing trouble, which has many meanings, the most important of which is to avoid the so-called "high merit overpower" situation.

There is no real fool who can climb to a high position, whether it is Su Lie to Mei Kai at the beginning, or Zhou Wen later. They can obviously lead the army to annihilate Baiyue, even if they pay a heavy price, they can always wipe out the besieged Baiyue people, but why are they just besieging and probing, and not launching the final general attack? Because they knew that the only person who could order a general attack was the master of this force, that is, the object of their allegiance, Lu Zhe.

Many times the monarch does not have the intention of killing his subordinates, but the credit is so great that the subordinates will always panic themselves, so there is only another way to go except convergence. What way? Scare yourself, scare yourself and rebel, what other way can you go.

Kuaitong looked for an excuse to come to the battlefield halfway because he was worried about the appearance of fools, otherwise in a situation of victory, any counter-plots, co-optation and the like are dispensable, in order to go to the battlefield in person to avoid accidents.

Whether Su Lie, Mei Kai, and Zhou Wen have been warned by Kuaitong that they can't be considered, whether they don't want to or don't dare to make a mistake, they can only make the most ideal choice, anyway, as long as Baiyue is annihilated, the credit they deserve will not be less.

In fact, after the victory was confirmed, Lu Zhe had already ordered people to verify the merits of the battle, and the movement of the verification of military merits was never too small, and the soldiers had to evaluate their merits according to the rank they had received, but the generals had to look at how well the troops under their command performed in wartime.

As soon as it was calculated, Su Lie, who was demoted to a military marquis, was promoted to captain for his merits, and the captain could lead a section of 5,000 people. Lu Zhe no longer had the heart to let Su Lie be the commander of the army, so he simply assigned those heavy infantry to Su Lie's part according to Su Lie's preferences.

Mei Kai was very good in this final battle, and he performed well in the preliminary accounting of his combat exploits because he commanded the bow and crossbow troops to fully cooperate with the melee soldiers, and was promoted to the rank of partial general after calculation.

Other newly promoted generals such as Shen Tujia, Zhang Cang, Cao Shen, and Tang Jie were also promoted, but the merits of Zhou Wen, Xu Zhi, Luo Shao, Wu Liang and others were too large, but they had to wait for a very complicated verification after returning to Nanling before they could reach a conclusion.

After annihilating the Baiyue people on the west bank of Xiangshui, Lu Zhe did not forget that there was a Lian clan on the side of Lingling, and in order to commend Luo Shao and Wu Liang for their hard work, he deliberately handed over the task of exterminating the Lingling Lian clan to the two, and the Huang family and the Yong clan must contribute if they want to get better.

When the 100,000 or so army broke through to Lingling City, even the clan people didn't know that the patriarch and the clan soldiers were all dead. They are both bewildered and nervous. What puzzles is whether the Baiyue people in front of them are all finished, otherwise how could there be 100,000 Lu Zhejun coming to Lingling. There is even more reason to be nervous, they saw that Lu Zhejun's number included the banners of Huang Ping and Ning Benliao, but they did not see the patriarch Lian An and the clan soldiers.

Did Luo Shao use a method of camouflage and deception? No, absolutely nothing. It's not disdain, but the camouflage deception of the city generally appears in the romance, if a city can rely on camouflage to deceive the city gate and knock it down, it is basically not that the defender of the city has a negative IQ, or the defender of the city has an actual ruler who has surrendered long ago.

Lingling was run by the Lian clan for nearly thirty years. However, from the point of view of the city defense, you can't see the appearance of the fortified city at all, the city wall is four zhang high with rammed earth, but there is a female wall as a cover, but what kind of bed crossbow, stone thrower, hook and other defensive equipment is not seen.

When Sima Xin went south again, he brought some siege equipment because he wanted to recapture Luo County. Su Lie had earlier brought 50,000 people from the Eastern Army to attack Linxiang and also brought a lot of siege equipment, Luo Shao was going to attack Lingling, where the Lian clan was entrenched, and Lu Zhe naturally allocated all of them to Luo Shao.

Deception or something was destined to be impossible, and Luo Shao put 10,000 of the 100,000 troops in charge of camping. Ninety thousand men and those siege equipment were put into formation, and after loading the cobblestone shells, the ballistas fired three waves first, and after a roar, the walls and the city were full of ghosts and wolves. Huang Ping volunteered to go up and persuade him to surrender.

Lian An died, and the five thousand clan soldiers were all dead, Huang Ping did not hide this, and the explanation given was that Lian An was beheaded because he pretended to belong to the ghost fetus, and the rebellion in the Lian family's five thousand clan barracks was killed by one of them.

False attachment? The people of the Lian clan were not surprised by this, this time Lu Zhe led the army south with too much momentum, Lian An was indeed not voluntarily but had no choice but to return, so if it was said that it was inevitable to have a ghost in his heart, how could they not know this.

On the plain on the west bank of Xiangshui, there are nearly 500,000 headless corpses, and Lu Zhejun's soldiers are pickling and cutting off heads on a large scale, which Huang Ping said is a little exaggerated, but even the clansmen understand it, that is, Lu Zhejun's war against Baiyue has been won, and the implication is that Lian can choose to close the city and resist being slaughtered in the end, and can also gamble to surrender and obey Lu Zhe's fate.

In addition to the patriarch in the clan, there will also be the elders in the zài, and the elders in the clan are generally the cunzai of the clan's think tank. Some of the elders of the Lian clan were on the city wall, and what they saw was an army of more than 100,000 pushing weapons and arranging a formation to attack the city, and this army had obviously just experienced a big battle, and all the soldiers looked murderous.

The Lian clan has 30,000 soldiers, and some of the people who forcibly pull or come to take refuge have nearly 60,000, and the total number is nearly 100,000 troops, but the most elite 5,000 people have been killed together with Lian An, and they are thinking about whether they can defend the city.

Luo Shao ordered to fire at Lingling again, and this time not only the ballista fired, but also hundreds of bed crossbows and car crossbows also joined the firing sequence, and it took a quarter of an hour to stop firing.

After the shooting stopped, some of the rammed earth walls of Lingling were destroyed, and the wall covered by bed and cart crossbows was filled with thick crossbow arrows.

Lian Shi was a little stunned, where had they seen such a formation in the south, and before they had time to react, the hundreds of thousands of enemy troops outside the city were also shouting something in unison?

"Within Liuhe, the land of the emperor, wading through quicksand in the west...... The sun and the moon shine, and the boat carries it, all of them will die...... Under the whole world, it is not the king's land, and the shore of the land is not the king's ministers......"

The last "under the whole world, it is not the king's land, and the shore of the land is not the king's minister." "It's been repeated all the time, but it's just that both the elders of the high-ranking clan in Lingling City and the defenders who were scared twice by the siege equipment are all stunned.

The First Emperor of this time and space hadn't had time to go to Lang Evil, so the Lang Evil Carved Stone incident didn't happen at all, and the word "four characters" appeared like a product of poetry, which Lu Zhe deliberately made the troops who came to attack Lingling memorize by rote.

In other words, all the land in the world belongs to Lu ...... Lu Hou? King Lu? Emperor Lu's? "They don't know what to call Lu Zhe, but they can't help it, what is drunk in front of them can't be heard clearly, from the Book of Songs? Lesser? What is the wind in the valley? "Under the whole world, it is not the king's land, the shore of the land, and the king's minister." "Because it's been repeated all the time, you can listen carefully.

Domineering, it can be seen that Lu Zhejun really killed more than 500,000 Baiyue people, so he has the confidence to dare to be so domineering.

What to do? Lu Zhe even slaughtered more than 500,000 Baiyue people, and Lingling's defenders with less than 100,000 troops could resist Lu Zhe's army with that kind of terrifying siege equipment?

The soldiers outside the city were shouting something again, and this time they no longer stiffly chanted four-character poems, but instead sang something with a very strange tone, as if "men should kill people, kill mercilessly" or "blood flows thousands of miles, and corpses pillow thousands of miles away from the mountains." The strong man finished fighting, tired of sleeping on the enemy's corpse, "what" in his dream, still killing people, smiling and shining. Something like that.

Horror, terrible, an already murderous army singing this kind of song again, people can't help but imagine the scene of a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood in their minds, trembling in the song, trembling in the song.

"If you slaughter nine million, you will be the best of the best."

"Slaughter nine million, that is, the male of the male!"

"Slaughter nine million, that is, the male of the male—"

Repeating this sentence, the sound of nearly 100,000 people shouting out seemed to make the heavens and the earth reverberate, and this is not the end, the siege equipment that should be is firing stone bullets and thick crossbow arrows again, this time the defenders on the Lingling city wall can no longer bear the pressure in their hearts, after one drops his weapon and escapes, it spreads like a plague, and more defenders scream and throw away the guy in his hand and run away.

"How can this be, how can it be like this...... "The eldest Lian Elder shed muddy tears in his eyes, and sighed: "The poetry of the Chinese people is too vast. ”

Make no mistake! Isn't it to marvel at the momentum exuded by the enemy forces outside the city, and to praise culture in fear?

In fact, the more literate people are, the more they will be silent in poetry, especially the Chinese civilization has always been a civilization of poetry, and the power in poetry is the most noble warning for people who can understand it. Therefore, not only did the Lian Elder who understood fall into an inexplicable emotion, but Lu Zhejun's highly educated teachers and some generals also burst into tears in their chanting.

"Surrender, we are succumbing to the vast culture, not afraid of the strength of the enemy." The eldest elder of the Lian clan didn't care whether others believed such nonsense or not, anyway, he believed it himself. (To be continued......)
