Chapter 8 Death, the people suffer
Guo Jia's words, Wang Wei naturally has no reason not to listen.
As Wang Wei looked up and looked down, Xiahou Xuan, Yu Ban, and Dian Wei all got up.
"I'm willing to kill Bianrang!"
"I'll do this!"
"I'll go!"
The three of them got up first, and Wang Wei's subordinates were not willing to be left behind, Li Dianle Jin also asked for battle, and even Li San was eager to try - not that Li San was not a little pressing, but that the plot characters in the Three Kingdoms world wanted to grow up, and they would inevitably experience a big war or even a bloody battle.
Seeing that the generals below were in high spirits, Wang Wei suppressed his hand, he turned his head and looked at Guo Jia.
"What does the advisor think?"
Guo Jia said with a smile.
"In my opinion, General Xiahoudun is really the best choice."
Wang Wei made a little trick of Guo Jia - none of these people present Wang Wei didn't want to offend, and it was not good to let anyone go, so he simply handed over this matter to Guo Jia to do.
Note that it was you, now you choose another person, right? What's more, the military adviser bears the blame for the general and even the lord, which is an eternal truth throughout the ages......
And Guo Jia's choice was indeed not unexpected by Wang Wei.
Xiahoudun is not only brave, but also has a strategy - his strategy must be stronger than Dian Wei, from this point of view, Dian Wei has no competitive capital.
Because Dian Wei is a person, how to say it, it is difficult to assume the position of a general in commanding the army.
And from the comparison between Yu Ban and Xiahoudun, Xiahoudun also has an advantage in everything - intercepting and killing Bian Rang is a credit, and this credit must be given to Xiahoudun, who has deeper qualifications and a harder background.
As for the ticket under Wang Wei, he is not competitive at all......
At this moment, Guo Jia spoke, Wang Wei nodded immediately, Xiahou got up and left immediately after receiving the order, and Wang Wei chatted with everyone for a while, and ended tonight's meeting.
The next day, the army set out again and headed for Xuzhou.
……
After seven days of marching, Wang Wei and his entourage finally stepped out of the boundary of Yanzhou and came to Xuzhou.
Wang Wei did not set up camp at the first time when he entered the enemy border, but led the army to continue to move forward, until a small county town in the distance came into view, Wang Wei waved his hand and announced the siege of the city.
The gap between Cao Cao and Tao Qian is visible to the naked eye, and now Tao Qian is hiding in Xuzhou City and shivering, without the courage to fight, correspondingly, many counties and counties outside Xuzhou have long been abandoned by Tao Qian. The small county town erected in front of Wang Wei in front of him, the defenders are less than 1,000 people, and the city defense is loose, and the city wall is also low, Wang Wei does not need to arrange troops at all, only need to let the general go first, and he can easily take the city.
And what happened next was not unexpected by Wang Wei.
As the commander-in-chief of the three armies, all the sergeants present at this moment are under the bonus of Commander Wang Wei, and the normal soldiers are okay to say, the focus is on those fierce generals - Dian Wei, Le Jin!
These two were originally super-first-class generals, Dian Wei was likely to be stronger than Lu Bu if he talked about foot combat alone, after they got Wang Wei's 84 points of commander value bonus, it was like a hanging, Le Jin climbed the city with a simple leap, and Dian Wei, like a chariot, stepped on small steps, and ran straight to the city gate.
I saw that at this moment, Dian Wei rounded his right fist and smashed it into the city gate, accompanied by a violent roar, and the door bolt made of solid wood was directly broken!
The violent force made the corners of Wang Wei's eyes twitch, and he was not only envious in his heart, but even had a crooked thought of "I want", but Guo Jia on the side said confusedly.
"This general's martial arts seem to be better than some time ago......"
Wang Wei didn't explain to Guo Jia, he just waited quietly for a while, and just an hour later, Dian Wei, who was covered in blood, walked out with the county order of the county.
"The city has been broken, and the last general will not be dishonored!"
"Good!"
Wang Wei waved his hand.
"All the soldiers will follow me into the city!"
……
This city is called Jiuling, which is a small county town that is not famous and inconspicuous.
However, such a small county town is indeed enough for the soldiers under Wang Wei to set up camp and serve as a base camp for a short period of time.
This expedition to Xuzhou, Cao Cao will personally conquer, now that Lao Cao has set off, he will be able to come in about three or five days, and he appointed Wang Wei as the vanguard, in order to let Wang Wei take the first step and lay a place for the rear army to rest.
It can be said that when Wang Wei defeated Jiuling, his task was basically completed.
Sitting in the county office, Wang Wei listened to the casualty report, and at the same time arranged trivial matters such as the encampment of the army - Wang Wei had studied all these things, so it was also in good order at the moment.
The only harsh thing was the wailing and screaming that sounded from time to time outside......
On the surface, Wang Wei seemed to be unmoved by anything in the outside world, and he was fast and methodically solving the big and small matters in the army, but in fact, Wang Wei was not calm in his heart at this moment.
It wasn't until the soldiers who came to report the results of the battle retreated, and only Wang Wei and Guo Jia were left in the house, Wang Wei finally couldn't bear the sad sound that lingered in his ears, he sighed and put down the bamboo slip in his hand, half-squinted his eyes, and said coldly.
"But if you get the city, you will slaughter all the people in the city, and you will take revenge on your father."
"The general can't bear it?"
When Guo Jia asked, Wang Wei nodded directly without saying a word!
At that time, at the oath meeting, Cao Cao's words were sonorous and powerful, and most of the soldiers heard it clearly, and when Jiuling City had just been broken, before Wang Wei could restrain him, the soldiers and horses under the command of Dian Wei and Yu Ban could not wait to rush into the city and began the atrocities of common anger!
Even the soldiers under Wang Wei were messed up!
But Wang Wei really can't stop this......
First of all, this is Cao Cao's personal order!
In the final analysis, Cao Cao's order is above all else, he said that if he slaughtered the people to take revenge, then the soldiers under his command would definitely slaughter Cao Cao to avenge his father!
Moreover, the slaughter of the city is more beneficial than harmful to the army.
Aside from benevolence, righteousness, morality, and so on, the training of soldiers is hard, every time there is a war, it is licking blood on the tip of the knife, pinning the head to the waistband of the trousers, this pressure is beyond imagination, even compared to the reincarnation of the person is not much better, but there are no too decent entertainment facilities in the ancient army, and every slaughter of the city is a carnival feast that connives, the soldiers are wantonly vented!
If the army is elite, it will naturally be able to restrain the desire to slaughter the city, but unfortunately, the group of people under Wang Wei is not very elite now......
With Cao Cao's personal order, when the slaughter of the city became a natural order, the beastly nature in the sergeant's heart was like a dam bursting, and it was out of control! Even if Wang Wei, the commander of the three armies, dared to stop in front of the soldiers whose brains were occupied by beastliness, not to mention being hacked to death with a knife, I am afraid that his prestige would plummet.
Guo Jia may also know Wang Wei's thoughts, he looked at Wang Wei with a smile in his eyes, but shook his head gently.
"Duke Cao has great ambitions and talents, but he has less benevolence and more tyranny, and this matter is actually not recognized by the next, however, you also know that you know that tens of thousands of people in this city are exchanged for the morale and loyalty of the soldiers...... It's a good deal. ”
Wang Weiden was silent.
Vaguely, he seemed to have a deeper understanding of the deep meaning of the ancient troubled times - human life here is not valuable......
"Xing, the people are suffering, dying, the people are even more bitter!"
With deep emotion, Wang Wei looked at Guo Jia again.
"Strategist, pass on my military order for the sergeants to take in children under the age of ten and the elderly over fifty, and these people are not to be moved. Then send my military order to collect all the bodies of the dead and wounded, and I will be of great use later. ”
Guo Jia listened to it, and laughed dumbly, he just looked at Wang Wei, and for a moment, Guo Jia shook his head slightly.
"General, I have a very disrespectful word...... You have power in your hands, and you are unwilling, but you can't do what you want and think. As a human being, your intellect is always higher than your sensibility...... I think you're really boring to live, General......"
Wang Weiden was silent......
It wasn't until Guo Jia left that Wang Weifang sighed.
"I can't help myself."
