Chapter 1148
Wei Zhuang waved his hand, and all the soldiers understood.
"Master Zhuge, in this battle, we only had light injuries to five hundred people, serious injuries to thirty people, and not a single soldier sacrificed!"
"Now the lightly injured soldiers have already transported those seriously injured soldiers to the Nancheng to recover."
"A total of five thousand surrendered soldiers were captured, without exception all old soldiers. It seems many old soldiers are not even locals of Great Qin. They were all pulled from the Seven Kingdoms to fill the numbers." Speaking of this, Wei Zhuang sighed. It made sense that the Seven Kingdoms were unified by the Qin State.
With these old soldiers who were afraid of death, leading new recruits to surrender, how could they possibly win against the real Qin army?
That's right, in Wei Zhuang's view, these so-called elites were just shrimp soldiers and crab generals, no!
Looking at those old soldiers lying on the ground, they weren't even shrimp soldiers and crab generals; they should be stinking fish and rotten shrimp!
"Military Advisor Zhuge, these five thousand people?" Wei Zhuang looked at Zhuge Liang with a questioning look.
Zhuge Liang smiled slightly and then whispered in Wei Zhuang's ear.
"We can pull them all back to dig iron. In this way, the liberated new recruits can have more time to participate in training."
"However, those who are afraid of death and lie on the ground among the corpses pretending to be dead, I think they have already lost the reason to live."
After Zhuge Liang finished speaking, he shook the goose-feather fan in his hand, looking just like a weak scholar.
But who would have thought he could say such cruel words.
Following Wei Zhuang's order, all the Qin troops present were reorganized. Their weapons were taken away, and even the armor on their bodies was stripped off.
Only thin clothing was left for them. Zhuge Liang looked at the sky and shook his head. Among these five thousand people, I'm afraid quite a few will die!
Immediately after, more than five thousand people were locked up together. They didn't dare to move around; they were already prepared to welcome their new fate.
That was to be reorganized, and then form an "elite" force again, and then attack others.
Perhaps they would die on the battlefield, but as long as they surrendered fast enough and were skilled enough at pretending to be dead, they could also be experienced in a hundred battles without dying.
However, the next second, their livers, lungs, spleens, gallbladders, and kidneys were almost scared out.
They saw those Bashu Nancheng new recruits holding weapons, stabbing each corpse several more times to confirm whether they were dead or not!
Finally, under this pressure, an old soldier didn't pretend to be dead anymore. He knew that if he continued to pretend to be dead, he might really die.
Because the next one would be him!
However, just as he stood up, his head was shaved off by a new recruit beside him, which left the few old soldiers nearby stunned.
The bodies that had just been propped up unknowingly lay flat again, but they all squeezed inward.
However, it was useless. In the end, it was still their turn. No matter whether they stood up or hid in the innermost part, they were all dragged out and killed!
Finally, an old soldier at a slightly further distance couldn't hold it anymore. If this continued, they would all die!
The old soldier stood up directly and shouted loudly.
"Aren't you afraid that your master will blame you for whipping the corpses like this? I surrender. You promised that those who surrender will not be killed!"
Under the leadership of an old soldier, countless soldiers pretending to be dead all stood up and then knelt on the ground with their heads on the ground.
They kept muttering, "I surrender, I surrender!"
However, this was like a fuse igniting a powder keg. All the Bashu Nancheng new recruits charged over directly.
Facing soldiers with no power to resist, they were like a massacre. They were all wiped out, and not a single living person was left!
This made the five thousand old soldiers who were detained tremble uncontrollably, and even some old soldiers' expressions gradually became crazy.
He prepared to resist!
However, just then, Wei Zhuang suddenly said loudly to them.
"You don't need to worry!"
"You are the first batch to surrender, and we will not kill the innocent indiscriminately."
"And they, they all wanted to pretend to be dead to muddle through. Such people deserve to die!"
"Their deaths are just to let you know, don't play tricks in front of our Bashu army, otherwise they are the outcome!"
"As long as you are obedient, you will not be slaughtered at will, and you will even have food to eat and work to do!"
Wei Zhuang's words were extremely tempting. A few short sentences directly made those surrendered soldiers quiet down.
Even many people's eyes were filled with hope?
This made Zhuge Liang a bit confused. What kind of look is this? Longing, hope?
Wei Zhuang seemed to see Zhuge Liang's confusion and whispered in Zhuge Liang's ear.
"Master Zhuge, they are all people from the Seven Kingdoms. Although they are soldiers, it's not bad if they can eat one full meal a day."
"Only when fighting a war do they have two meals, and they aren't even guaranteed to be full. Now, as surrendered soldiers, it's not bad that they aren't killed."
"What's more, they can have food to eat just by working?"
Facing Wei Zhuang's explanation, Zhuge Liang expressed that it was a bit hard to believe...
Great Qin has clearly unified, why is it still so rotten?
Is Qin Shi Huang really so obsessed with immortality?
"Since that's the case, then bring them into the city! By the way, let the tailors in the city make more clothes. It will be snowing heavily soon!" Zhuge Liang said with some worry.
Originally, the entire Bashu had no problem being self-sufficient in terms of clothing, but now there were suddenly more than five thousand people. There wasn't enough time to prepare clothes for these five thousand-plus people!
And Zhuge Liang didn't know if other cities would also have captured many surrendered soldiers, at least the enemy army they faced in the Nancheng.
In his view, they weren't even as good as the Yellow Turban Army!
That's right, they didn't even feel like farmers, because they had no will to fight at all, and only wanted to save their lives, and even made those who wanted to fight shrink back.
Sometimes it's not that the general is incompetent and tires out the whole army, but that the soldiers below have no desire to fight at all.
Zhuge Liang sighed long. Judging by the weather, it would probably snow heavily tomorrow!
If it's fast, maybe it will be snowing heavily tonight.
Wei Zhuang also knew what Zhuge Liang was worried about, but he still didn't quite believe it. How can anyone know what the sky will do?
Wouldn't that be like a god?
On the other side, Qin Mu saw the large army led by Li Xin from afar!
Visually estimated at about seventy thousand. Because Qin Mu had a telescope, he looked more carefully.
Unlike Wei Zhuang and Zhuge Liang on the Nancheng side, who all 5.0 misjudged.
Ten thousand were seen as more than thirty thousand.
Seventy thousand people. The garrison of the Beicheng had two hundred thousand, a gap of nearly three times the military strength.
What are they using to attack the city?
However, Qin Mu didn't want to just guard the city or leave the city to meet the enemy.
Since he had already made the decision to let all the new recruits experience the battlefield, Qin Mu wouldn't easily wipe out this large army just like that!
"Pass on my order, take away all the items in the city, leaving only enough grain and clothing for one hundred thousand troops for one month."
"Everyone in the Beicheng, not just soldiers, but also the elderly and children, all leave the Beicheng with me!"
"Temporarily move into the Imperial Capital!"
Everyone was curious about Qin Mu's order, but they still did it.
In Bashu, no one didn't admire Qin Mu!
Qin Mu, on the other hand, had the corners of his mouth slightly raised. He didn't know if Li Xin was already prepared.
