Chapter 400
"What, Bai Qi slaughtered one thousand captives of my Dahua, as well as nine thousand local tyrants and gentlemen of Jinyuan City?" Wang
Mang couldn't believe his ears when he received the news.
Although he knew that Bai Qi had the title of "human slaughter," it was taboo to slaughter prisoners and civilians in such a blatant manner!
No matter when these people were slaughtered, it would become a nightmare for the people and unpopular.
If the people don't support you, you can't do anything anywhere, which is why very few people actually slaughter people and prisoners.
What's more, the reason used by Bai Qi this time is also very far-fetched, saying that these local tyrants and gentlemen will destroy the whole family if they don't give food.
Even
Zhuge Liang was surprised at the moment, revealing a puzzled look: "It's really strange, how could Bai Qi be such a famous general and commander, how could he do such a thing."
Coupled with the strange behavior of the other party before, the possibility that Wei Chen thought that the other party had a conspiracy increased.
Maybe......
After all, they had a long way to come here from Daqin, and the roads in Shu were difficult to travel, which was not conducive to transporting grain, so they did not dare to fight a war of attrition with our army here.
In order to force our army to go out of the city to fight them as soon as possible, they will use this method to provoke us and want us to go out of the city to fight them.
Once the news of the massacre spreads, the people on the side of the Great Sui will definitely be angry and ask our army to send troops.
I, Dahua, have just taken over Daqin, and if we can't even guarantee their lives, then the people of Dasui will inevitably be disappointed in my Dahua.
But what I don't understand is that as long as the other two major legions of our army come here, there will be more soldiers and horses than the other side, and Bai Qi will dare to fight a decisive battle with our army?"
Zhuge Liang meant very simply, he thought that Bai Qi was deliberately trying to provoke them and lure them out of the city.
But now Dahua has two major armies here, adding up to nearly 200,000, and the 300,000 against Shangbai is not much behind.
And the next Wolf Legion and the Silver Leopard Legion will also arrive, and they will have 100,000 more soldiers and horses.
In this case, what would Bai Qi do to fight a decisive battle with them?
Even if the Dahua soldiers and horses gave up the advantage of defending the city and directly fought the opponent in the field, relying on the superiority of troops and the talisman in Wang Mang's hand, they could still wipe out the entire army of the Great Qin soldiers and horses!
Of course, Wang Mang also knew this, and when he heard this, he raised his eyebrows and paced back and forth in contemplation.
Zhuge Liang's words made him more vigilant, knowing that Daqin might have a plan against his Dahua, and he definitely couldn't fall for the other party.
"Could it be that Bai Qi really wants to provoke me and fight a decisive battle with our army while the other two major legions have not yet arrived?"
After thinking about it, Wang Mang felt that this might be the biggest possibility at present.
After all, the Wild Wolf and the Silver Leopard Legion are still on their way
, and it will take a few days to arrive! If Bai Qi provokes him in the past few days and asks him to lead the army to a decisive battle in Jinyuan, it will be the advantage of Great Qin's forces.
But what's the use of that, he Wang Mang has a lot of talismans in his hands.
In a hurry, he directly used the Scattering Bean Talisman + Heavenly Meteorite Talisman, and he didn't believe that he couldn't kill Bai Qi!
"It's hard to say" Zhuge Liang shook his head with a solemn face: "Let's wait for the other military advisors to reply to the letter, and see what they think." "
It's been a while since Wang Mang sent out the letter, and it is estimated that the letters from other military advisors should be on the way.
After all, in addition to Zhuge Liang in the territory of the Great Sui, there were also Dongfang Shuo of the Wild Wolf
Legion, Jia Xu of the Silver Leopard Legion, Wang Meng of the Crane Legion, Pang Tong of the Fox Legion, Xun Yu of the Gang Legion, Guo Jia of the Tiger Legion, and Sun Wu of the White Horse Legion! With so many strategists, they will definitely have their own judgments!
Moreover, these people are all in the territory of the Great Sui, and they pass news back and forth very quickly.
Things were as Zhuge Liang expected, and that night, Wang Mang received a reply from these military advisors.
The first to arrive was a letter from Guo Jia, the commander of the Tiger Legion closest to them, and Wang Mang couldn't wait to open the letter to take a look.
I saw that Guo Jia wrote in the letter: "Your Majesty, it is very strange for Bai Qi to act like this, there must be a big conspiracy behind it, and you need to be careful."
In addition, Li Xing, who fought against our Tiger Legion, also captured many civilians in the past few days and killed all of them outside the city.
The river outside the city was littered with corpses, rivers of blood, mountains of corpses, and at least twenty or thirty thousand people were killed.
Wei Chen is foolish, maybe this is Bai Qi's strategy, and he wants to provoke our army through this kind of slaughter policy
! He must wait until the two armies of the Wild Wolf and the Silver Leopard arrive to fight the other party, and he must not fall for the other party's strategy of anger!
" Putting down the letter in his hand, Wang Mang bowed his head and said: "Guo Jia's opinion is similar to Zhuge Liang's opinion.
It's just that I didn't expect Li Xin's side to start slaughtering the people, this Bai Qi really dares to do such a thing that is angry and resentful!"
Then less than an hour later, Wang Mang received a letter from Dongfang Shuo and Jia Xu, who were not far from them and were rushing to Chengdu.
Dongfang Shuo's opinion is not very novel, and it is also speculated that Bai Qi wants to provoke them and let him fight with the other party as soon as possible, and advises him not to fight immediately.
Instead, Jia Xu's letter puts forward a different view.
"Your Majesty, at first the minister thought that Bai Qi wanted to provoke our army to fight a decisive battle with them, but after thinking about it, such a simple method of provoking generals, can't Bai Qi see that it seems that our army can see it?
Bai Qi killed 10,000 people at once, maybe there was another purpose, maybe these dead people could let him achieve a certain goal.
If Wei Chen's guess is correct, perhaps Bai Qi will also order the slaughter of many people, please pay close attention to the movements of Bai Qi and his soldiers and horses.
If it is really unfortunate to be expected by Wei Chen, please pay attention to this matter, after all, Daqin is also a warlock, and it is difficult to guarantee that the other party will not use crooked ways to deal with our army.
After reading Jia Xu's letter, Wang Mang couldn't help but have a cold look in his eyes and shivered all over.
He knew that Jia Xu was very yin, so the angle that the other party considered was also the most insidious and the worst.
Now Bai Qi has killed 10,000 people, and Guo Jia's letter just now also said that Li Xin's side also killed 20,000 or 30,000 people, isn't this exactly what Jia Xu said!
"Bai Qi killed so many people, it is impossible for no reason, can they really have any evil art to deal with my Dahua's soldiers and horses?"
Thinking of this, Wang Mang suddenly couldn't sit still, and immediately stood up and walked back and forth in the room.
After a moment, he picked up the letters from several other military advisors and read them one by one.
The other letters from him didn't have too many suggestions, they were all the same as Zhuge Liang and Guo Jia, who thought that the other party wanted to provoke them to fight a decisive battle as soon as possible, and asked him not to be fooled.
After reading these letters, Wang Mang finally put Jia Xu's letter in his hand and had an idea in his heart.
Then, he quickly wrote a letter!
"Yuan Fang, this letter will be sent back to Dahua as quickly as possible, and I will urgently transfer someone here!" Wang
Mang said with a straight face: "Maybe only this person can really break the mystery in front of him and let the other party's conspiracy be revealed!"
