As soon as Wise Guangxiu's words fell, Bai Qi waved his hand and ordered: "Come on, take down Wise Guangxiu" Wise Guangxiu was so frightened when he heard this, and knelt on the ground and begged for mercy: "What does General Gongsun mean by this, don't you have to say that the villain has no merit and hard work, and please show mercy to the general's subordinates."
Bai Qi stroked his beard and laughed: "Don't worry, you still have value for me, I didn't plan to kill you this time." ” "Then why did the general order me to be taken down" Akechi Mitsuhide's heart was a little calm, and his face was still full of puzzlement.
Bai Qi smiled and said: "Have you ever heard that Xiang Yu killed the Qin army in Julu Liuzhang Hankeng, and people would have temporarily imprisoned you in order to save your life, otherwise your head on Xiang would have been gone." ” "Ah, General Gongsun is planning to kill all the surrendered troops" Akechi Mitsuhide was so frightened that his face turned pale, and he regretted it in his heart, and he originally planned to take over Oda Nobunaga in charge of all the Japanese troops and be a great Japanese traitor "under the Han people and above the Japanese people", but now it seems that it has become a dream of Nanke.
It's just that there is no regret medicine in the world, and now that the wood has been completed, more than 400,000 Japanese troops have all surrendered, including Akechi Mitsuhide himself, who has become a fish and meat to be slaughtered; If you want to kill or chop, it's not a matter of Bai Qi's words, and now you can only knock out your teeth and swallow blood, and let Bai Qi dispose of it.
Bai Qi waved his hand and ordered Deng Qiang to step forward and arrest people: "Escort Wise Guangxiu for the time being, and release the prisoners after they are executed." ” "Now that General Gongsun has been decided, the guilty general has nothing to say, I just hope that the general can spare dozens of my henchmen, they have followed me from birth to death for many years, this time to get rid of Oda Nobunaga and Date Masamune have also made contributions, and I hope that the general will be gracious" Before Deng Qiang stepped forward to arrest people, Wise Mitsuhide bowed and pleaded for his henchmen.
Bai Qi's eyes were like frost, and he snorted coldly: "You will die of this heart, except for your wise Guangxiu, there will be no one left" Wise Mitsuhide wanted to cut Bai Qi's body to pieces with his own hands, but in the face of the cruel reality, he could only endure the humiliation and steal his life, save his life first and then make plans. could only sigh and let Deng Qiang twist his arms and escort him down.
After Akechi Mitsuhide was escorted down, only Bai Qi, Lu Xun, and Qi Jiguang were left standing side by side in the midst of thousands of troops, and at this moment they were the masters of the Japanese island, and one sentence could decide the life and death of more than 400,000 captured Japanese soldiers.
"Ahem" Qi Jiguang first broke the short silence with a cough, and asked in a solemn voice, "General Gongsun Shicai won't take what Wise Guangxiu said seriously, right?"
In terms of position, Lu Xun is the highest among the three, followed by Qi Jiguang, and Bai Qi is the lowest.
But this battle to completely annihilate Oda Nobunaga was initiated by Bai Qi, and played a leading role of 70 percent, so Lu Xun and Qi Jiguang unconsciously regarded Bai Qi as the main general, and Bai Qi's meaning was first consulted for any major decision.
And in order to suppress Bai Qi, Lu Xun did not say anything about stopping him from slaughtering prisoners, and even hated to encourage Bai Qi to massacre prisoners of war.
The lives of more than 400,000 people are not a joke, the news reached Jinling, and the civil officials of the Manchu Dynasty could drown Bai Qi with spit on the stars alone.
Qi Jiguang, who is loyal to the country and dedicated to opening up territory for the Han Dynasty, does not have so many ideas as Lu Xun, and he doesn't care who will be the main general after the merger of the three corps, but admires Bai Qi's way of using troops.
But deep in Qi Jiguang's heart, he did not approve of Bai Qi's massacre, believing that the way to use troops should be to attack the city and attack the heart first, and only by conquering the hearts of the people can there be long-term peace and stability.
For Bai Qi's first massacre, he killed more than 30,000 Japanese soldiers in Zhangziling at one time, and Qi Jiguang could still turn a blind eye.
Because the war situation was undecided at that time, the Japanese army was outnumbered, and keeping these prisoners would bring immeasurable difficulties to the Han army if they surrendered first and then rebelled, so Qi Jiguang did not express his position.
And now that the overall situation has been decided, Oda Nobunaga, Himiko, Date Masamune, Shibata Katsuya and other leaders and generals of the Japanese Kingdom have all died, and more than 400,000 rabbles have all been disarmed and surrounded, they are already fish and meat on the chopping board, lambs to be slaughtered, and they are still slaughtered, is it too cruel and bloody This is unacceptable to Qi Jiguang no matter what.
Bai Qi smiled: "Naturally, it's serious, doesn't General Qi look at me like I'm joking?"
"No, I don't approve" Qi Jiguang raised his voice, and intuitively rejected Bai Qi's proposal, "General Gongsun killed more than 30,000 prisoners in Zhangziling a few days ago, and last night he ordered He Qi to slaughter 10,000 Japanese in Yewang Town, at that time, the battle situation was undecided, and the slaughter was a helpless move.
For the final victory, Jiguang can support the general, but now that the overall situation has been decided, if he kills again, he will never be able to. ” Bai Qi slowly explained: "General Qi, you are the benevolence of a woman Although Nobunaga and Himiko are dead, Toyotomi Hideyoshi is still alive, the Japanese island has not yet been unified, Edo has still not been taken, and there are still hundreds of thousands of Japanese people on the vast islands of Hokkaido. ” Qi Jiguang argued: "General Gongsun, Jiguang admires your way of using troops.
But I don't dare to agree with your way of governing the country, our expedition to Japan is not only to conquer the land, but also to conquer the people and make them submit to the power of the Han Dynasty.
Most of these so-called soldiers were forcibly conscripted into the army by Oda Nobunaga, with seventy old men and seven-year-old children, many of whom were powerless, and now they have surrendered on their knees.
"Those who are not of my race will have different hearts."
Bai Qi also did not give an inch, arguing with reason, "The establishment of which empire is not a river of blood, and the corpses are piled up like a mountain Although hundreds of thousands of people were forcibly conscripted into the army by Oda Nobunaga, many of his family members died in the army, and the reason is that after all, it is because of the invasion of my Han Dynasty, it is inevitable that they will hate our Han in their hearts and lay hidden dangers for the future."
Only by completely killing them can we never suffer in the future."
"I can't kill it, I will never agree" Qi Jiguang's face turned red and his expression was angry.
Bai Qi's face was like frost, and he said coldly: "General Qi can't help it, I killed these captives for the long-term peace and stability of the Han Dynasty, I don't hesitate to carry prisoners for thousands of years and infamy, and I am not afraid of the accusations of thousands of people."
Does General Qi think that my Gongsun Qi is willing to have blood on his hands, and it's not for the sake of the Great Han Sheji?"
Qi Jiguang did not back down: "No matter how many reasons General Gongsun has, after all, this is more than 400,000 living beings, among which there are many women and children, why did they die tragically under the butcher's knife" "Which dynasty is not made of white bones, which country is not made of blood, these women and children are born in this war-torn era, and they are born on the island of Japan.
Since the Yellow Turban Rebellion, it has lasted about 20 years now, and more than 15 million innocent people have died.
Seeing that the two generals were arguing, including Deng Qiang, He Qi, Zhou Tai, Yu Dayou, Di Qing, Shi Lang and others came up to persuade them: "The two generals should be calm and don't be impatient, just discuss slowly." ” Tian Feng, who had been following Qi Jiguang to join the army, swept his eyes to Lu Xun, who was motionless in the eight winds: "General Gongsun and General Qi are arguing, I don't know what General Boyan means" Lu Xun couldn't wait for Bai Qi to kill all the captives, but he couldn't openly support it, so that he wouldn't be able to get out of it when the civil officials of the court were impeached.
But Qi Jiguang was so strongly opposed, as the leader of the legion, he couldn't say anything if he didn't stand up and say a few words.
"The two generals have a point, this matter is a bit tricky" Lu Xun cleared his throat and said an ambiguous word, "Otherwise, the two generals will win or lose in the competition, and whoever wins will listen to whom" "But" Bai Qi looked arrogant, and reached out and touched the saber on his waist.
Qi Jiguang also hugged his fists: "For the morality of the Han Dynasty, I am willing to fight with General Gongsun." ” "Hehe, that's it."
Lu Xun agreed with a smile, but he was inexplicably excited in his heart, the swords and guns had no eyes, the two tigers were fighting, in case they were both injured, the commanders of the three armies would be in their own pockets.
Tian Feng looked at Lu Xun's delicate face, his eyes flickered, and he took a step forward and said: "Two of you are slow, you are the chief generals of the three armies, how can you see each other with swords, if there are three long and two short, won't it shake the heart of the army" "That Tian Yuanhao thinks that how to decide, I will never agree to kill innocents indiscriminately like this," Qi Jiguang stroked his sword in his hand, uncompromising.
Bai Qi also clasped his arms to his chest: "My Gongsun Qi is by no means a butcher who takes pleasure in killing, and this is completely for the sake of the Han Dynasty's society. ” Tian Feng said: "It's better to repair a book and send someone back to Jinling, which will be ruled by the imperial court." ” Lu Xun showed disgust on his face, and said solemnly: "The sea is vast, send people back to Jinling from the Kanto Plain to ask for instructions, back and forth, I'm afraid that it will not be enough for two months, who will supply the food for these more than 400,000 people."
Deng Qiang strode forward, hugged his fists and said: "It's better for me to replace General Gongsun, and also ask General Qi to designate someone from the army to compete with me, whoever wins will listen to whom."
Qi Jiguang bowed slightly, it was not a way to stalemate like this, and his eyes swept to Zhou Tai: "Zhou Youping, are you willing to fight against Deng Qiang on behalf of the general?"
Zhou Tai clasped his arms in front of his chest, stroked his beard embarrassedly, and said with a wry smile: "General Qi, I'm really sorry, in fact, I support General Gongsun in killing all these captives very much."
A bunch of lowly peoples, why not cut the grass and eradicate the roots, once and for all" Qi Jiguang's face turned red with anger, and he drew his sword in his hand and shouted at Deng Qiang: "It seems that there are many people in the army who support General Gongsun, since this is the case, I, Qi Jiguang, will personally fight you for the outcome."
I won and left my captives alive, lost" What should I do if I lose, Qi Jiguang didn't know how to answer for a while, but he couldn't accept Bai Qi's large-scale massacre of prisoners no matter what. t1706231537:
