Chapter 285 Annihilation!
But the deputy general came hurriedly to report to Bai Mingwei: "Miss Bai, it's not good, General Cui's subordinates have caused trouble!"
Bai Mingwei slowly put down the pen in his hand, raised his eyes and asked, "What's the matter? Tell me slowly."
Seeing Shangfeng so calm, the deputy general gradually calmed down.
He told Bai Mingwei what had just happened: "Miss Bai, General Cui's subordinates helped us clean up the battlefield, and then went... and went to look for flowers and willows."
"Miss Bai, this fact is too much. There are more than 21,000 prisoners, and ours is only 18,000 left to fight."
"Apart from the soldiers guarding the city, there will be no more left to guard the prisoners. Once the prisoners counterattack, we will waste all our efforts, but they will even go shopping in groups of kilns."
"The girls in the building dared not pick up the guests, so they took the military pay in their pockets to find the wild warbler. Our people went to persuade them, but they said that General Cui would take them to find them when they won the victory.\/Just enjoy them to show encouragement."
Bai Mingwei listened carefully, but his expression never changed from beginning to end.
Even though Cui Zhihui's subordinates made such a big mistake at this critical moment, Bai Mingwei never showed any anger.
Unreasonable calm.
In fact, she was also angry, but she knew how to restrain herself and let her emotions be concealed.
Upon hearing this, she did not immediately decide what to do about this matter, but instead made a major decision: "Send the order and wipe out all the prisoners!"
The deputy general was shocked and stared at Bai Mingwei with his eyes, as if he was confirming the order to Bai Mingwei again.
Bai Ming took a deep breath, slowly closed his eyes, and spit out two cold words again: "Total annihilation!"
She made a very difficult decision.
The handling of prisoners has always required the court or the chief officials like Huo Shixun to have this power.
Besides, even if she waded through the sea of corpses and blood, she did not blink, but she did not kill people.
There were more than 20,000 people who surrendered, but she felt no trouble when she killed her.
However, Cui Zhihui's soldiers are not on the same path as the Bai family army. If the prisoners counterattack, the Beiyan soldiers stationed in the neighboring city "Mirror City" attack Liancheng.
Not only will all their previous efforts be in vain, but they will likely be completely lost in Liancheng.
Eliminating the threat of prisoners has become an imminent matter.
The deputy general's shock did not stop for a long time: "Miss Bai, if the people of Northern Yan were angry and attacked the people of Jingcheng and Qiangcheng, we would not be able to save those people."
Bai Mingwei suddenly opened his eyes, his eyes were bright, and his voice was as cold as iron: "All annihilation! We will work hard until this moment, and we must not break here because of the captive's counterattack."
"Otherwise, what we lose will not only be the city and the people, but also the millions of brothers who fight side by side. This choice is difficult and the risk is also great, but we must do it."
The deputy general did not dare to delay and immediately went to issue an order.
Bai Mingwei found Liu Yao and took him to the execution ground of 20,000 prisoners.
Liu Yao was a little resistant. The scene in Yinshan had already caused a shadow in his heart. Now he could not do anything when he saw more than 20,000 living lives being killed in front of him.
"kill!"
As the deputy general shouted, the captives who were tied to the ground and knelt on the ground and lost their ability to resist suddenly fell to the ground.
Blood soaked the land outside the city, gathered into a blood river, and rushed into the moat like a mountain torrent.
The riverbed, which was thirsty due to the dry season, was gradually filled with the bright red blood accompanied by a pungent fishy smell, spreading over the entire Lotus City.
Compared to the fight between swords and swords, this killing seems even more bloody and terrifying.
Standing on the city wall, looking at the rolling heads one by one, and the blood that winds into a river.
Liu Yao's eyes were so angry that he turned around and was about to escape.
Bai Mingwei reached out and held him: "Your Highness, please look down!"
The force of the hand was so strong that it was like an iron hoop. He couldn't break free at all. He just trembled his lips and begged in anger: "I won't read it! I don't want to read it! Let go of me!"
Bai Mingwei didn't say anything, but still clamped Liu Yao steadily.
The desperate wailing of the prisoner before his death and the terrifying voice of Liu Yao dissipated with the cold and bitter night wind, mixed with the smell of blood, making it strange like a ghost realm.
When everyone was killed and Liu Yao was already scared and paralyzed, Bai Mingwei lifted Liu Yao up and looked at him.
"Cruel?"
Liu Yao nodded, looking disgusted.
Bai Mingwei still stared at him: "Calend your useless fear and extra compassion. This is the battlefield, the land of sin and sin. You must know how to face it!"
Liu Yao shouted: "I am a phoenix son and a dragon grandson, pay attention to your attitude!"
Bai Mingwei's voice suddenly rose: "I am the tiger talisman holder of the Bai family army! Even if you are the noble prince, you have to listen to me on the battlefield!"
Liu Yao hugged his head and was so scared that he shivered.
He had long lost his arrogant arrogance, like a child who was afraid of being beaten, and kept trying to shrink into the corner.
But when he raised his eyes carefully, he encountered Bai Ming's slightly tearful gaze.
Liu Yao had never seen Bai Mingwei so fragile. Even the day she went to Yinshan to collect the bodies of 80,000 soldiers, she was calm when she saw her, as if she would not be defeated.
But at this moment, there were tears in her eyes.
Liu Yao was stunned for a moment and stared at Bai Mingwei in a daze.
He said, "I am obedient, don't do this."
The tears in Bai Mingwei's eyes never had a chance to fall, reflecting the bright flames above the city walls, but the beautiful and resolute eyes were like red flames that were dancing violently.
Bai Ming slightly let go of Liu Yao: "Your Highness Nine, this is life, a tenacious and fragile life. Even if you close your eyes and don't look at it, many lives will pass away every day."
"Diet to death in battle, starve to death, and sick to death... There are almost no normal people who die of old age in Dongling!"
"The hands of these people are stained with the blood of our Dongling Erlang. They have slaughtered our people and committed heinous crimes on the land of Dongling!"
"How many people's sons died at their hands! How many people's husbands were killed by them! How many people have lost their father because of them!"
"Now it is just a success and a defeated enemy. They lose their battle and lose their lives. But you can't bear to look at their deaths, and even feel pity for such an enemy."
"Then should we forget about the lives of the soldiers who died tragically under their butcher's knife?"
"This is not cruelty! This is just revenge! Revenge against those executioners stained with the blood of the people of Dongling!"
Seeing that Liu Yao was still stunned, Bai Ming punched the thick bricks and stones with a slight punch.
The ancient city wall could not resist her heavy blow, and the bricks and stones were shattered, showing huge gaps.
Bai Mingwei held the city wall, his eyes stayed on the bloody color, and he had never seen dodge, guilt, or even pity in her eyes.
From the moment she issued this order, in just a moment, she became aware of taking all the consequences for what she did.
Even if she goes to hell, she will have no regrets!
This is the courage she must possess as a leader. When necessary, she must be more ruthless and worse than anyone else!
Only when she is determined to walk on the bloody road, those who follow her will not be shaken.
Finally, she looked at Liu Yao sideways: "Your Highness, you are not wrong with respecting life, but the ones that should be respected are those who have never hurt others and struggle to survive, or those who have worked hard for others."
After saying that, Bai Mingwei stopped speaking.
While carefully observing her face, Liu Yao asked, "I want you to tell me the reason you must kill them."
Bai Ming took a deep breath, as if he was feeling extremely depressed. If she didn't use this method to soothe her, she would probably be difficult to speak.
"Your Highness, look, compare the dead captives with the number of our soldiers. What serious consequences do you think will be if these captives rise up and resist?"
"Of course I also know that in the whole thing, these prisoners are not the fault, and those who started the war, the soldiers at the bottom just obey orders."
"But if we don't kill them, our soldiers will be in danger, and the Lotus City we are desperately guarding will be in danger."
"I cannot make our soldiers and the people in unnecessary danger because of mercy."
Liu Yao asked: "Aren't we short of manpower? Why don't we take them under our command?"
Bai Ming smiled and shook his head: "Although the people of Northern Yan are learning a lot of knowledge about our Dongling, they never look down on us Dongling people and think that our Dongling people are weak and cunning."
"Today they surrendered because of their defeat, but they will not change their views on us. Their killing and beastly nature in their bones will instruct them to wait for an opportunity until they find an opportunity to step on us."
