Chapter 1319: The ancient method of killing is used today

 When the morning sun rose from the horizon the next day, the sound of drums and horns sounded in the military camp of the Xiyan Army, and the sound of rough shouts in Xianbei language rang out, accompanied by the sound of whistles and whistles one after another.

With the sound of golden drums, the sleepy-eyed Xiyan sergeants lazily got up from their respective camps. Amidst the dense sound of drums, they put on their armor, picked up their weapons, and lined up. It took about half an hour.

, 20,000 troops have already lined up in front of the North City of Jinyong City.

The sun has risen, and the rays of the rising sun shine on the helmets and armor of the Xiyan army, shining brightly, especially the three thousand armored cavalry arrayed in front of the formation, standing tall and motionless, holding long spears and big bows, looking cold

The ground stands in front of the entire army, exuding a chilling aura. This silent army is the most effective in combat, because once it breaks out, it moves like thunder and is unstoppable.

Liu Yu stood on top of the city, frowning deeply and touching his chin. Tan Pingzhi on the side muttered: "What's going on? Why did the Xiyan army let the armored cavalry go forward? Murong Yongyong would not be so stupid as to let the cavalry go."

Let's attack the city. Is it possible that their horses can fly?"

Liu Yu shook his head: "I'm afraid it's not that simple. I think this stance is to establish authority and give instructions."

Murong Lan frowned deeply: "But they also dispatched siege equipment today. They should be attacking the city. They only want to establish their authority and give lectures in the camp. Is there any need to come here?"

Liu Yu's eyes flashed coldly: "Aiqin, have you ever heard of what's so special about the military law in the Xiyan Army?"

Murong Lan smiled and said: "You can just ask our Murong family directly about the ancestral system of the Xianbei tribe. On this grassland, there are many tribes fighting each other. The reason why our Murong family can remain invincible is because we compete with each other.

Compared with other tribes, not only are they not inferior in martial prowess, but they also have strict military discipline. This military discipline is the eleventh day killing order."

Liu Yu softly said "Oh": "What law? This is the first time I heard of it."

Murong Lan put away her smile and said sternly: "According to military regulations, if the soldiers on the front line do not listen to orders and escape without authorization, the general will be beheaded. If the general dies in battle, it means that the surrounding guards failed to protect them well and they will all be cut in half. But except for

Except for the generals, the soldiers who ran back are not immune, they are all punished by death."

Wei Yongzhi said with a smile: "Death in the army is not real death. Often, the head is sent away, beaten, and then incorporated into the vanguard battalion death squad to take the lead in the assault. If you can survive, you can be pardoned from the death penalty. We people,

But quite a few have had this experience, right, Brother Jinu."

Liu Yu nodded: "Yes, this is the case in our Beifu army, but those who commit capital crimes here are often because of drinking, fighting or robbery, but there are no escapers on the battlefield. Aiqin, your Xianbei military law is so bad

How?"

Murong Lan sighed: "We will gather all the defeated soldiers who have escaped, and first kill the general who escaped in public, and then let all the soldiers capture and eunuch them, and pick one out of every ten, and the other companions will kill him.

In principle, the lot should be drawn according to the usual group of ten people, so as to ensure that those who kill him are his closest accomplices and comrades."

Tan Pingzhi's expression changed: "This is too cruel. Although not all of them were killed, this method of execution will kill even the best friends. Even those who survive will suffer."

Murong Lan nodded: "Yes, the recruitment of our own troops is based on tribes. Generally, the people in the same team and group are all fellow villagers, the best friends and the people with the most contacts, so they can be on the battlefield.

Sacrifice one's life to protect each other and share the same hatred of the enemy. This is the same whether it is Da Jin or our Da Yan, but it is precisely because of this that killing one's best companion with one's own hands can leave an unhealable scar and pain in people's hearts forever, making them feel guilty.

It is difficult to deal with it. We are obviously fleeing at the same time, but some people are required to kill other companions. Those who survive will have no physical desire in the future and will fight to the death, not to seek merit, but to die to avenge shame. Such a soldier,

The fighting power is very fierce, and he is also a dead soldier in the art of war."

Liu Yu looked calm, looked into the distance, and said slowly: "I think what they are going to use now is this eleven-day killing order. Aiqin, can you tell me why later, this eleven-day killing order

Haven’t you heard much about the killing order?”

Murong Lan sighed: "Because this military method is too cruel and has great consequences. Although it can temporarily frighten people on the battlefield, it has almost formed a sworn blood feud with the entire army. Although only ten of them were killed."

Only one person, but let the remaining people live in shame and guilt forever, so this military method is generally only used on surrendered captives and servant tribes, but it must not be used on our Murong family's headquarters and close relatives and tribes.

Those who did this, later, because of this military law, many tribes rebelled, and the gains outweighed the losses, so this military law was officially abandoned after my ancestors of the Murong clan entered the Central Plains."

Liu Yu smiled slightly: "In other words, this kind of military law cannot kill your own people, it can only kill those miscellaneous people and surrender the army, right?"

Murong Lan smiled and said: "Yes, it seems that Murong Yong is going to do something like this today. We asked the people who fled back yesterday. Those who were monitoring and supervising the battle were the former Qin surrender troops in Bingzhou. The leading generals were named

Gou, in order to establish his authority, Murong Yong will probably use the eleven-day killing order to deal with them today."

Liu Yu pointed at the Xiyan army formation in front: "Poor General Gou, he didn't survive until today. It seems that he was killed by Murong Yong last night."

Everyone followed Liu Yu's fingers and saw that a handsome stage had been rearranged on the hill where Murong Yong was yesterday. Murong Yong was full of murderous intent and was wearing a large armor. He was sitting on the stage with a bright red glow floating behind him.

A large flag with the word "Yan" in it, with blood sprinkled on it, and a dead head hanging on the flagpole, side by side with the word "Yan", looked particularly scary.

The cavalry of the Xi Yan Army slowly separated to both sides. Nearly two thousand Yan Army soldiers without armor, wearing single clothes and bare feet, who were the archers supervising the battle yesterday, staggered out, their eyes flashing.

With a look of fear and scars all over his body, he walked forward step by step, facing his terrible and unknown fate.

The dense sound of war drums one after another made people's hearts flutter, and the monotonous and steady sound of horns made people's blood surge. Liu Yu looked at these frightened Yan troops in the distance like lambs waiting to be slaughtered, and the corner of his mouth

He ticked the hook and murmured: "Murong Yong, you are so cruel!"
