Before Wu Zhe answered, all the Xuanwu female generals had high expectations for her. ,
I've heard of her name as a think tank a long time ago, but I don't know how capable a military adviser is in marching and fighting. Can she be worthy of the name of a military adviser
But after hearing her answer, all the female generals couldn't help being stunned for a while.
Immediately, several female generals couldn't help feeling dissatisfied: No? surrender? Even if Emperor Xuanwu, who was in command of the army, surrendered, if the eldest prince surrendered, it would be humiliating to kneel down.
Even female generals Tang and Qiu strongly disagree with Wu Zhe's theory of surrender.
The female general Qiu didn't express her position, but the female general Tang asked tentatively: "Are you going to use a fake surrender to earn the city gate?"
Wu Zhe shook his head with a smile.
Everyone was smart enough to see that she was cheating. The slow-witted mind thought she was planning to make the raiders surrender.
Maybe it was because she considered the unfavorable situation on the battlefield and wanted to choose a way to survive? Some female generals murmured in their hearts. That should be the case, after all, Zhou Zhiruo has never experienced the baptism of war, this is the way of thinking of a woman who has never been on the battlefield.
Emperor Xuanwu had already heard a little smell.
When he posed the question, he didn't say that Prince Mo accompanied the army, but said the eldest prince, which already seemed to be a problem. But it may not mean that Prince Mo will stay in Wudu. Which one it is, no one else knows.
This is the question.
On the surface, it was just a strategic dilemma for Zhou Zhiruo, but in reality, there was an implicit problem of fighting for position and entrapment. As Prince Mo's think tank, is it necessary for her to get in the way of the eldest prince's accompanying army as the military governor
Emperor Xuanwu smiled slightly and asked: "Commander Zhou, please continue. You asked the eldest prince to surrender, but is there a plan?"
"Your majesty is wise. This humble minister is indeed a little cautious and prepared for the next move." Wu Zhewei bowed and began to explain: "Arranging for the eldest prince to send a few of his cronies to surrender in private, the emperor should be furious when he finds out. After blaming the eldest prince, he personally led people to chase after him. I didn’t want to meet someone who was sent by the eldest prince to surrender but was sent back on the way.”
"Commander Zhou, are you a prophet?" Lady General Tang and the others couldn't understand.
Wu Zhe smiled and said, "What do you guess?"
Now everyone knew that she had a plan, but that petty temper or bad taste caused it. Is selling off.
Everyone simply waited to hear what she had to say, but the young female general was a little anxious. It's a bit like listening to a book.
Wu Zhe continued: "Those cronies of the eldest prince were tied up and sent back immediately by the people of Qi. They were all covered in blood, and they were almost dying."
The youngest female general exclaimed: "Being beaten by the people of Qi? Did you whip a lot?"
"Almost." Wu Zhe said: "Anyway, he is bleeding all over his body, and the whole person becomes a stick."
General Qiu asked puzzledly, "A human stick? What kind of human stick?"
Wu Zhe explained with a serious face: "The human body is like a tree trunk, and the limbs are like branches. If Qigen cuts off the limbs, then the person is like a bare tree stick. This is the human stick."
A young female military general asked curiously: "Then the person has become disabled?"
Wu Zhe nodded: "Don't talk about being disabled, if you can't move your neck, you can just lie on the bed and act like a pool of rotten meat."
After hearing this, the female generals could not help but shudder after imagining the scene.
Wu Zhe said again: "The people who surrendered are treated like this, and the soldiers can understand what they think in their hearts."
Female general Tang nodded: "There is no doubt that we can only fight to the death."
General Qiu and the others nodded one after another: "This can boost morale. The whole army is united in a desperate fight, and there is still a possibility of breaking out of the siege or capturing the city."
Emperor Xuanwu smiled and looked at Wu Zhe and the others, asking and answering. He already knew Wu Zhe's plans in his heart.
A female general thought it wrong: "Hey? Wait, Commander Zhou, what if the Qi people don't kill our surrender envoy?"
All the female generals immediately echoed: "Yes, yes. If the general of the Qi State Commander showed kindness for a while, wouldn't it be impossible to boost morale if he didn't hurt people so fiercely?"
Even the female general Tang looked at Wu Zhe with a questioning look in her eyes.
"Qi Jun didn't do this in the first place." Wu Zhe said seriously.
She had a serious expression on her face, and there was no doubt about it.
"Ah? Didn't the Qi army do it?" The female generals were puzzled: "Could there be bandits nearby? Or the militia of the Qi people, or stragglers? Or the masters of the Sword Sect sect lurking in the dark to attack?"
You don't understand her strategy at all... Emperor Xuanwu smiled and looked at them, shaking his head secretly.
"So all this happened. It was all my plan." Wu Zhe said slowly: "The elder prince's subordinates surrendered, and those who cut off their hands and feet were also the elder prince's people. Without guaranteeing that the Qi people will be so vicious .We must be vicious against our own people."
Lady Tang's eyes widened: "What, what? This, this, is too cruel."
"There is no way forward, there are reinforcements behind, morale is low, and food and grass are exhausted. Such a situation is the cruelest. Rather than annihilating the entire army, it is better to abandon the interests of a small number of people and let everyone work together." Wu Zhe spoke very quickly. Slowly, dignifiedly: "The people of Wu Kingdom cannot surrender. Thirty thousand surprise attack troops. In this situation, there is only one way to die. It is better for everyone to fight to the death and let the emperor escape. After all, as long as the emperor is here, the Great Wu Kingdom will be..."
Emperor Xuanwu was most satisfied after listening to these last words.
Of course, the content of the previous plan also made him very appetizing.
In the face of national interests, we are not afraid to sacrifice personal interests. What human ethics. In front of the rulers are all floating clouds.
As long as the emperor is guaranteed not to die, it doesn't matter if ten thousand or even a million people die.
Emperor Xuanwu really appreciates Wu Zhe's way of thinking.
This is simply the best way to think about the royal family. The rulers of the dynasty must have a sage in their mouth and a butcher in their heart in order to sit firmly in the country.
What Wu Zhe explained shocked all the female generals.
No one thought that her strategy was to let the eldest prince cut off the hands and feet of his subordinates, and forcibly cut off human sticks, so as to create an atmosphere where there is no way to surrender, and the only option is to fight to the death.
When all the female generals were unable to react, Wu Zhe said lightly: "Compassion does not control soldiers."
well said! Emperor Xuanwu patted his hand on his thigh lightly, and almost exclaimed.
This sentence is simply the best summary of the character requirements of the commander of the army.
There is no courtesy, justice and shame on the battlefield. The most shameless act of killing, why bother with ethics
Commanders should be cruel. Whether it's against the enemy or against one's own people. In his eyes, only the final result of the war is right.
You Xuanwu female generals, are your knowledge and determination not as good as that of a little girl who has never seen blood? (To be continued..)
