Fusu brought 5,000 people into Liaodong. According to the suggestion in Heifu's letter, he left more than 4,000 Zhao soldiers in Xi'an.
But for the five thousand Yan soldiers, Chen Ping gave the suggestion that if they were placed in Xi'anping, it would be easy for the soldiers of Yan and Zhao to collude.
"Once they rebel, there will be tens of thousands more rebel troops in Liaodong, and there will be no peace in the north. Why don't you take the Yan soldiers to Korea and let them guard the entrances, firstly to facilitate the supply by sea, and secondly to make the country more peaceful?"
In North Korea, Yan soldiers are wary of each other, so they can ensure a safe future..."
After hearing this, Fusu thought it made sense, and asked several captains again. They also felt that Chen Ping's strategy was very pertinent, so they readily adopted it.
But now, this move has caused a catastrophe...
The Qin army's camp under Man Fanhan was divided into two major camps: the left and right. Yan soldiers were stationed on the left, separated by a ravine and a wooden wall, and the Guanzhong soldiers were stationed on the right, tightly surrounding the sentry tower where Fusu lived.
Fusu stood on the sentry tower and looked out, only to see that all the soldiers of the Qin camp on the right had been awakened, arranged in an array according to the organizational structure, and guarded the camp as if they were facing a formidable enemy.
However, the Yanzu camp on the left was completely out of order. There were people running around everywhere, mixed with noisy shouts, the sound of weapons clashing, and even the camp tents were on fire. The scene was chaotic.
"This is Yingxiao..."
Fusu opened his eyes wide and watched this scene.
The captain named Gao Cheng told him that this was the most terrifying civil strife in the army. The journey was thousands of miles long, getting farther and farther away from home, but getting closer and closer to the unknown foreign battlefield. When crossing thousands of mountains,
The losses were too great. People in almost every camp died or were killed for fleeing. In addition, the deputy general Yang Duanhe fell ill and died, which aggravated the tension of the soldiers of Yan and Zhao in the camp. The most secure generals were dead, not to mention them.
?
The reason why there was no chaos was entirely due to the five thousand elites from Guanzhong and the strict military discipline.
Seeing that they were about to enter North Korea, everyone was on the alert. Therefore, on such a quiet and dark night, a soldier's cry due to nightmares or fear would often trigger a chain reaction of others, causing the entire military camp to fall into a state of hysteria.
The soldiers may have thought that the camp was being attacked. In panic, they took up weapons and attacked others indiscriminately. Some people had evil intentions and wanted to take advantage of the opportunity to escape, so they killed each other and trampled on each other in the camp.
demon.
"Thanks to the Guanzhong soldiers who have been on the battlefield for a long time, they were not implicated by Yingxiao."
Captain Gao secretly wiped his sweat. This was a blessing among misfortunes. If it affected the young master Fusu and caused him to suffer any evil, then his ten heads would not be enough to kill him.
Fusu looked at this scene and just wanted to look up to the sky and sigh. This expedition was really disastrous. A few years ago, he served as a supervisor in the northern part of the Great Wall. He thought that he had gone deep into the military camp and understood the pain of the expedition, but this time suddenly
After being appointed as the chief general by his father, he realized that when he was the supervisor of the army before, it was just a child's game of traveling with the army.
The urgent war time, the heavy weight of more than 10,000 lives on our shoulders, the supplies that may run out at any time, the journey we walk every day, but it seems that it will never be completed, and the unexpected accidents that follow one after another.
In just four months, Fusu has experienced hardship and fear that he has not experienced in the past twenty years. This is just a march, not a formal war yet...
If he were a pawn, facing such huge pressure, he might not be able to help but let out a long suppressed roar, right?
Seeing that the chaos in the left camp was getting worse, more and more people were being trampled and killed, and the fire was almost spreading to the right camp. Fusu looked at the captains: "Gentlemen, is there any way to stop it?"
"stop?"
The two captains looked at each other, and Gao Cheng smiled bitterly and said: "This camp roar is similar to a prison roar. Once it happens, it is extremely difficult to stop it. If you enter the camp rashly, you may be attacked by soldiers. The best way..."
A ruthless look flashed in his eyes: "Send someone to occupy the camp gate, lock the soldiers inside overnight, and let them kill each other! By tomorrow morning, the young master will have a quiet camp."
In the eyes of the Qin people, it is inexplicable to bring these soldiers of Yan and Zhao to fight in a foreign country. It only increases the difficulty. It is better to die. It would be better if they all die, so as to save them from worries!
Fusu was silent for a long time. It is true that the advice of the captains was the best way to protect the Qin soldiers in the right camp, but Fusu finally sighed:
"Before the war started, the deputy general, Old General Yang, fell ill and died. After marching thousands of miles, one or two died out of ten. Now the camp is roaring, and another third is about to lose. How is this different from abandoning the army and losing the division? One general is incompetent, and the three armies are affected, said
Fusu, right? But no matter what, they are my soldiers and my innocent sons, Fusu cannot abandon them!"
He took one last look at the chaotic Zuoying and ordered:
"Gather the chariots and horses, all heavily armored, and follow me into the left camp to separate the soldiers!"
"Young master, no!"
The captains quickly tried to dissuade him, but Fusu was determined.
When he put on the heavy armor, stood on the military chariot, and glanced at the five thousand Guanzhong soldiers who were as stable as a rock, he couldn't help but sigh. He had always wanted his father to treat the land of Qin and the homeland of the Six Kingdoms equally. Along the way, he also
We continue to practice this and hope that the three armies can work together in the same boat.
But the fact is, how can hundreds of years of estrangement and generations of hatred be eliminated overnight? Once trouble occurs, the most reliable ones are the children of Guanzhong...
Fu Su made a long salute to these five thousand Guanzhong soldiers!
But on the other hand, he could understand the fear in the camper's heart.
This expedition was too long and too strenuous, and the emperor's deployment was strange, as if the soldiers from the three places were deliberately brought together to test Fusu for various problems that would arise during their use.
From the commander-in-chief to the soldiers, everyone's nerves are highly tense. The unfamiliar territory, the harsh military laws, and the precarious trust between the Yan people and the Qin people. The distant hometown in the dream and the bloody battle so close at hand, the past few days have
During the long journey with uncertainty about life and death, many familiar faces disappeared. Under the high-pressure military discipline, it can only accumulate depression for a long time.
Until the tight string broke!
With someone's scream, all the fear, anger, and confusion that had been hidden for a long time burst out in an instant and became unstoppable.
Fusu could understand, but even so, he had to stop this terrible incident!
The young master raised his sword and ordered: "Strike the gold! Open the camp gate!"
The strong men ring the bronze bell in the camp, which is a signal to withdraw the troops and stop the fighting. The sharp sound is also a good way to wake up the roaring soldiers in the camp.
At the left camp, some hurried and frightened soldiers heard the golden bell ringing, and subconsciously stopped the weapons in their hands, raised their heads, or turned their faces. However, they saw that the previously closed right camp was wide open, and in the night, a
A military chariot and horses led the way, followed by Guanzhong soldiers wearing armor and holding torches. They rushed straight into the left camp and shouted in unison:
"The general has an order, abandon your troops and lie down on the ground!"
Under Jin Minghe's shouts, many people woke up with a start, obeyed, threw away their blood-stained weapons, and crawled on the ground. After calming down, they looked at the corpses on the ground with fear. No one knew what happened just now.
In the darkness, in their madness, did they accidentally kill their country party leader...
Fusu's chariot and Qin's soldiers passed by them without stopping.
But in Zuoying, there are still many places where terrible killings are taking place. Some people are red-eyed and ignore it, while others want to fight their way out of the camp and escape from this hard labor completely!
The chaos in Zuoying did not improve. Some people were even crazy enough to attack the Qin soldiers who were quelling the chaos, and wanted to pull Fusu out of the chariot. The guards fought desperately to protect each other, and only then could Fusu be saved.
Fusu knew that the time had come to make a choice.
"Those who kill each other are guilty of the same crime as a private fight. Kill them!"
"Anyone who blocks it will be regarded as treason and will be killed!"
"Those who cross the camp will be considered as fleeing and will be killed!"
Three words of "kill" came out of Fusu's mouth with difficulty. He could imagine that if Qin Shihuang saw this scene, he would definitely praise him for killing him...
Relying on killing to solve problems was what Fusu hated and opposed the most.
But it’s not that easy to stop a chaos. Sometimes, you have to let some people die in order to let most people live!
"kill……"
It's such a terrible feeling to be forced into someone you once hated.
With tears in Fusu's eyes, he pointed the sword in his hand at the soldiers who were trapped in fear and madness, and at his former self!
"kill!"
…
A few days later, in Xi'anping, two hundred miles to the west, Chen Ping listened quietly to the messenger's account of what happened in Manpanhan.
"There was a roar in the left camp. Five thousand Yan soldiers were killing and trampling each other. The young master wore armor and swords and led the soldiers into the camp to quell the chaos. He killed hundreds of people and the chaos stopped..."
In short, the camp roar was miraculously calmed down by Fu Su. Afterwards, the number of people killed each other and trampled on each other. At least a thousand people died, and more than a thousand people fled in the chaos. The leader was a man named "Wei"
The Yan people who were full of "were the chief of the village."
The reason for the roar in the camp has also been found out. Rumors have been circulating in the camp recently that "the emperor's eastern expedition was a lie and he wanted to make the people of Yan and Zhao die to be true." The Yan soldiers were frightened, and Wei Man and others wanted to escape, so they took the opportunity at night
He yelled loudly, trying to cause chaos, and took the opportunity to slip away, but in the end, the falsehood came true, triggering this tragedy...
After Wei Man and more than a thousand people broke out of the camp, they dispersed and fled westward. Fusu was unable to catch up, so he sent a messenger to inform Xi'an, where the granary was located, to be careful of rioters.
"Is everything okay, sir?"
Chen Ping was very concerned about Fusu's safety.
The envoy replied: "Young Master has nothing to do. He just rushed into the camp in person. He was attacked by a group of soldiers, fought with them, and killed two people..."
Chen Ping could imagine that Fusu's sword, which was polished clean every day, was stained with blood for the first time.
"Unexpected..."
After the messenger retreated, Chen Ping sighed.
That rumor was secretly spread by him while he was in Xi'an. In other words, it was actually the truth.
Chen Ping originally just wanted to make Fusu's already tortuous expedition more difficult, causing the young master to become confused and bewildered, and finally asked the black husband of Jiaodong to clean up the mess for him.
"In this case, not only Qin Shi Huang will be disappointed with the eldest son, but the Lord may also give up on Fusu completely..."
Now it seems that it is self-defeating. Everything that follows is out of Chen Ping's control. Even he doesn't know in what direction things will develop...
Scratching his itchy scalp, Chen Ping laughed to himself: "The master still sees clearly. If you talk too much, you will definitely make mistakes!"
