Chapter 542 The emperor is first and foremost a person

Feihu City obviously cannot accommodate a hundred thousand troops. The imperial guards quickly took over Feihu City, which had only three walls left, and the military tent extended outward to form military camp walls.

For the Song Dynasty, the city walls formed by the military camps were much stronger than those of brick and stone.

Zhao Zhen wanted to check the extent of damage caused to the enemy by artillery himself, but Cao Wei, Di Qing and others stopped him and refused to let him go. Xia Shu was very dissatisfied: "What's wrong with checking with Your Majesty?"

Cao Wei was reminiscent of Xia Feng, and his face was pale in an instant, "I'm afraid that his Majesty's eyes will be filthy..."

Xia Feng walked towards the north of the city without believing in evil. He was also a person who had seen killing. How could he look as exaggerated as Cao Wei? Could it be that they had something to hide from His Majesty and not to himself?

What the army fears most is that it is illegal to deceive superiors and conceal subordinates. Even though the imperial guards have improved too much now, Xia Shu still feels that it is necessary to perform the duties of military supervision. If anything violates military discipline, it will be bad.

The most important thing when the army attacked Feihu City this time was that it would not kill the prisoners of surrender after the war. Naturally, it should not show mercy to the enemies who beg for surrender during the battle. Who knows if he would suddenly start to hurt people?

But once the battle is over, the prisoners must be kept. This is the habit of the Central Plains dynasty. Killing prisoners is not just a saying. The wisdom of the ancients is vividly reflected in this article. Once it is claimed to not kill prisoners, it is also true that this is done, and the resistance encountered during the battle will be smaller.

What a smart plan, it is just a small strategy, but it takes advantage of human survival instinct. Whenever there is a way out, people always give themselves hope for life.

But when Xia Feng came back, his whole body changed, his eyes were red and ferocious, his legs were trembling again, and the muscles on his face were stiff. When he saw Di Qing and Cao Wei, he rushed forward frantically, grabbed Di Qing's collar and said, "How dare you...how dare you do this?"

Zhao Zhen looked around for no reason. Even if the imperial guards did not leave a living mouth, it would be fine. Although there is such a saying that killing prisoners is bullied, Zhao Zhen knew the metaphor. At worst, he would leave the prisoners down from the next battle.

When Zhao Zhen was about to go to the North Gate, not only Cao Wei and Di Qing disagreed this time, but even Xia Shu stepped forward to stop him: "Your Majesty, you can't go to the North Gate!"

"What's going to do? I've experienced swords and weapons back then. I haven't seen any miserable situations?" Zhao Zhen looked at the person who was kneeling in front of him and said dissatisfiedly. After all, he had to take a look at the damage caused to people by the cannons and went to the north gate more and more determinedly.

Seeing that Zhao Zhen could not persuade him, everyone could only follow him carefully. Once the official could not stand the tragic scene, he could quickly cover it up.

On the way to the north gate, Zhao Zhen saw a group of frightened Liao troops tied forward by a long rope. At this time, the Liao troops did not look as arrogant as before. They all curled up their bodies together. Even if they were captured, they showed a down-to-earth expression, as if this was the safest destination.

It seemed that the power of the cannons shocked them a lot. Zhao Zhen nodded with satisfaction, but when he saw the situation at the North Gate, his face turned pale and his internal organs were overturned. The scene in front of him could not be described as tragic. There were broken limbs and broken arms everywhere, incomplete meat all over the ground, and there were also pieces of meat on the city walls that could not be named. This scene was comparable to Shura Hell!

Resisting his vomiting, Zhao Zhen said to Xia Shuo: "Send someone to deal with these. Although it is autumn and the weather is a little cold, it is inevitable that the disease will spread. It is best to disinfect lime, so that everyone can stay away from here as much as possible!"

Xia Xu nodded repeatedly: "I followed the order and the officials also looked at it. It would be better to leave this place of great evil."

Zhao Zhen nodded and turned his head suddenly and said, "Let the reinforcements in China speed up and start laying the road to Feihu City. The speed must be fast! There is not much time left for us."

Xia Shun and others nodded. They knew what the officials were worried about. According to the speed of Feihu City, the Song Dynasty's attack on other cities in Yanyun would be quite fast, which means that the logistics speed must be kept up with the previous plan of the official.

Everything was so unexpected and reasonable. Xia Shu and others looked at the official family who turned around and left silently. The reason for their silence was that no one knew what words to describe the official family. Everything seemed to be based on the official family's original plan, and no one could escape this vicious circle.

When a person arranges everything, even the details are planned, the whole thing becomes very weird.

Yes, weird!

Many people have this feeling. They feel that everything is in the calculations of the government, or in other words, including this Northern Expedition.

Feihu City was successfully conquered, and it was reasonable to make it go down in one go. The power of the cannon is very powerful and the power of the cannon is 100 meters. The official seems to have seen the destructive power of the cannon in actual combat. Although his face is not good in the Shura hell scene, he can tolerate it. Xia Shu can see that the official is not astonishing perseverance but other reasons.

Zhao Zhen, who returned to the imperial tent, recalled the scene just now, turned pale, and turned to the toilet, and vomited in a dark and sunny way. He had seen the destructive power of human civilization, but he still felt disgusted when facing the tragic scenes of the North City.

No matter what he has experienced, first of all, he is a human being, and he will become resistant to the scene just now and feel disgusted... unless he is a pervert.

When Xia Shu and his men heard vomiting and coughing sounds outside the imperial tent, they almost breathed a sigh of relief at the same time. The official family was normal, and they still had a heart of compassion, and they were still familiar with the official family.

Why did Xia Shu get angry at Di Qing and others? It was because this scene was too tragic. It was inevitable that it would have an impact on Zhao Zhen's reputation when he appeared in the imperial throne of the Song emperor. At the same time, after seeing Zhao Zhen's expression, he began to worry that the war would change the mentality of the officials.

Peng Qi looked at the group of people surrounding the imperial tent and coughed lightly, "What are you doing? Are you watching the official family?"

Xia Feng rolled his eyes and said, "Have you ever seen it at the North Gate? I am worried about the official family. If Sancai is not here, you must serve him well. Go and prepare warm water and tea for the official family."

Peng Qi rushed in with a pale face. Xia Shu's words reminded him of the scene just now. Even Peng Qi's courage was scared and his whole body was numb, let alone the official family. He heard the overwhelming vomiting inside and quickly ran to Zhao Zhen to a cup of tea on the ground: "You can take a sip, don't be like that for a while."
