If you want Yao Yuanfu to practice benevolence and righteousness and stabilize the place, even though he is relatively wise and courageous among the traditional warriors of the Central Plains, he may not be able to do this kind of thing very well.

But if you want to talk about how to subdue people's hearts with great terror, and how to defend a city with only a few hundred people, they are incompetent.

To put it bluntly, Yao Yuanfu and the hundreds of tooth soldiers he brought are not good people. Apart from not eating people, there are few other bad things that they have never done. He knows what to do.

.

Therefore, under the worried eyes of Guo Guangcheng, Yao Yuanfu did not let his soldiers relax at all.

Starting from the south gate, they chased the White Wolf Army and killed them indiscriminately. And it was not a mindless killing, but a conscious drive, and they did not kill them all at once.

This has an advantage, that is, after the White Wolf Army's psychological defense line is defeated, they will instinctively run towards familiar places, and often even run to the place where their family members live in an attempt to hide.

This tactic of chasing and confiscating an opponent's home and killing the entire opponent's family at once has been figured out by the tooth soldiers during the two hundred years of war in the Central Plains.

Historically in the Central Plains, except for idiots like Qin Zongquan and Sun Ru, or in other words, after the population of the Central Plains has dropped to a terrible level, there are very few people who engage in massacres without fighting the war to destroy the country.

To capture a place, it is enough to kill all the soldiers and their families on the opposite side. The rest should be kept for the soldiers to farm and create wealth.

As a result, this completely crushing battle dragged on for a long time. Yao Yuanfu and others entered from the south gate and directly killed through the entire Suiye City, until even a strong man like Bai Zhuer felt a little hypoglycemic.

Only then did he stop.

But by this time, no one in the entire Suiye City dared to stand.

In this kind of foreign land, the people are much more knowledgeable than those in the Central Plains. They kneel down on both sides of the road with their families, trembling and waiting for the end to come, praying that the soldiers will show mercy after they are tired of killing.

Heart.

Of course, it was useless for them to run away. While Yao Yuanfu and Guo Guangcheng led people to kill everywhere, Chi Tian and Guo Tianfang had already organized all the coolies outside the city.

Most of these coolies were unwilling to work with Guo Guangyi, or they were dissatisfied with Guo Guangyi's rule.

Many of them were even herdsmen from the Guo family and the Gray Wolf tribe where Chi Tian belonged. They organized them and soon blocked the other three gates of Suiye City.

Guo Guangjie woke up long ago, but he did not dare to move. It was not until a strong man gnawing on a leg of lamb picked him up that Guo Guangjie, who had lost half his teeth, howled desperately, and then

Not even half satisfied.

Guo Guangcheng came over dragging a sledgehammer. He was so angry that he wanted to smash Guo Guangjie to death with the hammer.

Yao Yuanfu chuckled and stopped Guo Erlang. He nodded at Bai Zhuer, who immediately showed a cruel sneer on his face.

Guo Guangjie saw thick wooden sticks that had been sharpened. Above the wooden sticks, there was a shelf specially designed to hold people in place. There was also a big stone placed on top of the shelf.

Those Guo family members who were tortured during the construction of Zicheng were applying oil to the sharpened wooden stick.

Guo Guangjie suddenly felt a stinging pain in his anus, and he struggled in fear. As a result, the white pig grabbed his throat and lifted it up in the air like a big goose. Guo Guangjie was immediately left with a purple face and swaying around.

hands and feet.

Yao Yuanfu chuckled, and the surrounding tooth soldiers also burst into laughter.

When they were in the Central Plains, the military discipline of the Great Zhou Dynasty was a bit stricter, which made the Ya soldiers feel like they were home in the Western Regions thousands of miles away.

"Come here, please put some oil on the back door of this guy who doesn't know anything about the Heavenly Kingdom and is willing to abandon his ancestors and become a beard. It's like a certain family is showing great kindness!"

Yao Yuanfu deliberately looked pitiful, and the laughter became even louder.

Bai Zhuer also threw it away in disgust, and Guo Guangjie stared with frightened eyes, collapsed on the ground and excreted and peed.

Because he knew what it was, the sharpened wooden stick was still greased with oil just so that it could be inserted into his valley smoothly.

The shelf that can hold a person in place is to prevent him from being stabbed to death in one fell swoop.

The big stone on the shelf is to ensure that the shelf will slowly fall down a little bit every time.

"Brother, don't worry, this kind of thing usually takes four or five days to completely tie you to it.

And in order for my brother to enjoy himself, a certain family will feed him honey and milk every day to maintain his strength. Otherwise, he won’t be able to cry out, which would be boring.”

An inhuman smile appeared on Yao Yuanfu's face, and then he said to Luo (Li) Yechuan: "A certain family once heard from Zhao Siwan that the highest level of this thing can make the wooden tip come out of the mouth, but the victim has not yet completely

Even after death, the eyes can still move.

Keep a good watch on me, if someone dies within four days, you will be punished for your serious crime of disobeying orders just now!"

In fact, Luo Yechuan did not make any big mistake, but Yao Yuanfu needed to strengthen his authority at this moment before a bigger storm came, so Luo Yechuan unfortunately ran into the head of the fire.

As for what the bigger storm is, is there any need to say?

After Yao Yuanfu captured Suiye City, Guo Guangyi would definitely counterattack violently in order to avoid complete defeat.

Yao Yuanfu had already seen what this traitor was trying to do. Guo Guangyi wanted to turn Suiye City into an iron felt while the walls were strong and the wilderness was clear. He himself led his elite into an iron hammer and came over the mountains and ridges, exhausted.

The unbearable imperial army was directly hammered to death at the foot of Suiye City.

But now the broken leaves have been recovered by him in a surprise attack. If Guo Guangyi doesn't take back the broken leaves before the snow melts in spring, his death will come.

Once you know the opponent's tricks, it's easy to find a way to deal with them, but they're also cruel.

Yao Yuanfu found Guo Guangcheng and said seriously: "We have brought two thousand people, but Guo Guangyi can mobilize at least another 40,000 people, which is twenty times more than us.

Manager Tiger will not be able to leave until at least mid-April, and it will be at least mid-May before we reach Broken Leaf. During these three and a half months, we can only rely on ourselves."

A look of pain appeared on Guo Guangcheng's face. Although many people in Suiye City failed to hold on, they were all once Guo Guangcheng's closest friends, and could even be said to be clan members.

Yao Yuanfu glanced at Guo Guangcheng sympathetically and said, "Guo Erlang, you really shouldn't have come to Broken Leaf. Why are you asking for pain?"

Guo Guangcheng slowly shook his head, "Yakong, ever since Guo Xingong led the soldiers of the four towns to guard the Western Region, my Guo family has been inseparable from Anxi, Broken Ye, and the river. Can we leave 20,000 people?"

There were originally about 140,000 people in Suiye and its surroundings. Guo Guangyi moved away 100,000 people and then added 5,000 confidants.

If we exclude the thousands of people scattered throughout Suiye and those who were beaten into hard labor, then there are still about 30,000 people in Suiye City.

Yao Yuanfu only brought 2,000 people. If we want to guard against the 30,000 people inside who may or may not have ulterior motives, and resist the siege of 30,000 to 40,000 people outside for three and a half months, it is absolutely impossible.

, so we must not be able to keep so many people in the city.

But it is impossible to drive these people out of the city, because they will definitely be used as cannon fodder by Guo Guangyi to attack the city.

So there was only one option left, which was to dig a hole and bury it.

Now Guo Guangyi must kill all the 5,000 men, women, old and children stationed in Suiye City, so there are still 25,000 people left.

Among them, three to four thousand people are the family members of those who were beaten as hard laborers. Of course, they must be preserved, so the fate of 21,000 or 2,000 people is still undecided.

Guo Guangcheng asked if 20,000 people could be left behind. In other words, he wanted to ask if he could kill only 5,000 people and retain 17,000 residents and 3,000 hard laborers.

But Yao Yuanfu shook his head. There was no difference between killing only five thousand people and not killing them at all. He said coldly: "The maximum number of people left is twelve to three thousand, of which three thousand women and four thousand men are left."

The three thousand women left here can do laundry and cooking, and can also relieve the anxiety of the soldiers guarding the city. If Hu Guang's army cannot arrive in mid-May and the food is exhausted, it will be even more...

Four thousand men plus three thousand hard laborers, plus the two thousand people who followed, there were nine thousand people who could defend the city.

Suiye City happened to have been renovated by Guo Guangyi. If Zicheng was not repaired, we would not use it and just defend Luo City. Anyway, if we defend both cities, we would not have enough manpower.

Guo Guangcheng sighed, he believed that Yao Yuanfu was not deliberately trying to make things difficult for him, but had made accurate calculations.

They, old soldiers, are extremely proficient at playing this set of things, and there won't be many mistakes or discrepancies.

...

In the fourth year of Shaoming Dynasty, on February 11th, Yao Yuanfu and Guo Guangcheng led two thousand warriors to cross the Bodal Ridge, raided and recovered Suiye City.

Yao Yuanfu then tortured Guo Guangyi's brother Guo Guangjie, his trusted general Aqsa and more than 2,000 soldiers, and tortured him by sitting on a wooden donkey.

Among them, Guo Guangjie wailed for three days before he died. It is said that even his internal organs were pushed out of his mouth.

On February 14th, Yao Yuanfu carried out three attacks and one kill in Suiye City, killing more than 14,000 people in one go. He dug more than a dozen deep pits to bury people. This also won Yao Yuanfu a lot of honors.

The title of Medicine Yama.

....

Hu Guang had just come out of the palace of the King of Jin in Shule City. He scratched his head a little irritably.

What do you think of Li Congde, the emperor's cousin and the crown prince of the Jin Dynasty? He really has two skills in governing the local area, stabilizing the people, restoring production, and building water conservancy.

But when he recited the Buddha's name, he made it a bit silly. He kept talking about killing less and increasing evil, and not using the people's power too much.

When he was asked to pull tens of thousands of men to cross the Zhenzhu River with the army, they all looked pitiful and miserable.

Because Li Congde believed that it would be extremely difficult to cross the Tianshan Mountains and the Zhenzhu River in mid-March. This was not asking him to recruit 40,000 people to help transport grain and grass. He was asking these 40,000 people to die. It would be better to wait until the weather changed at the end of April.

Go again when it's warm.

I heard that this Prince Wang has been studying Buddhism in Dunhuang for a long time. Which eminent monk taught him this?

Such a freak.

It's just that Hu Guang didn't know that in history, this prince, the fifth king after the restoration of Khotan, occupied Shule twice during his reign. He died in Central Asia and West Asia with one hundred thousand divine warriors.

There are many plans, and they are all beautiful battles in which the few defeat the many.

I think the expansion of the Tianfang Sect at that time must have been very intense, otherwise people like Li Congde would not have been forced to go on several personal expeditions.

"How long does it take for the king to reach Shule?" Hu Guang suddenly stopped and asked Guo Guangsheng beside him.

Guo Guangsheng quickly took out the small notebook in his hand, and after reading it, he suddenly had a wry smile on his face.

"The report arrived five days ago. The king and the eldest princess have just arrived in Gaochang. The eldest princess heard that the flavor of Gaochang honeydew melons is unparalleled in the world. It seems that she intends to wait until mid-May to eat fresh honeydew melons before setting off back to Shule."
