Chapter 554 Captive
Yang Heng comforted the golden cicada pattern for a while, which made the beauty calm down and fall asleep deeply.
On the morning of the second day, Yang Heng stood up early, and then issued a general order in the Central Army's tent, asking the generals to come and discuss.
With Yang Heng's order, the soldiers flew out of the camp, like Kaifeng City, and soon became lively in Kaifeng City. More than a dozen generals rode war horses and rushed to the camp with their new recruits.
They entered the military camp, came to the central army's tent, and after each dismounted, they entered in order according to their ranks.
After entering the big tent, they stood on both sides. After a while, Yang Heng finally walked out of the back camp and entered the big tent of the central army.
After Yang Heng sat down, the generals knelt down together and bowed to Yang Heng.
"No gifts and equitable."
After everyone stood up, Yang Heng looked at them and said, "Last night, I was attacked by people sent by the pseudo-Song King in the Central Army. Do you know about this?"
The generals below actually received the reward of exploring the horse last night, but Yang Heng did not send an order at that time, so they did not dare to send troops privately.
Before Yang Heng could wait for the generals below to speak, he slapped the table and said angrily: "This pseudo-Song King is already at a dead end. It is unbearable to dare to be so arrogant."
"Liu Yue."
"The last one will be here." Liu Yueyi came out more and more and bowed Yang Heng to salute him.
"I order you to lead three thousand cavalry to pursue the fake King Song, and to see people alive and to see corpses alive."
"The last general is the order."
Liu Yue took the command arrow handed over by Yang Heng, then turned around and left the central army tent with the command arrow, lit up his troops, and soon flew out of the camp, headed straight for the southern road, and pursued King Song.
Next, Yang Heng asked: "How is the situation in Kaifeng City?"
As a disciple of Yang Hengda, Shouming quickly came out, bowed his fists and said, "Report to the Grand Marshal, Kaifeng City has calmed down and all the remaining enemies have been eliminated."
"How much is the loss between the enemy and us?"
"Report to the commander, our army lost more than 3,000 people in this battle, of which more than 1,200 people were killed in battle. Most of them were recruited just this time. The losses of veterans were much smaller, with only more than 200 people."
Yang Heng let out a long sigh when he heard this loss number. This time, he didn't lose much of his troops, which was a great blessing.
"How about that enemy side?"
"Report to the general, the army of the pseudo-Song King has been defeated, and many people have already been trapped nearby, but more than 40,000 people were captured by us. In addition, more than 10,000 people died in battle, and the main force of the pseudo-Song King has been completely lost."
Yang Heng was satisfied at this moment, and he should attack everywhere and recover the entire Henan.
However, there is another question: how to deal with the captured enemy troops. You should know that this is more than 40,000 mouths after all, and you have to eat every day. The court's finances are now in short supply, but there is not so much money and food to support these people.
"What should we do if you say these prisoners? Should we release them or kill them?"
After listening to it, the generals below looked at each other, and they were silent. They didn't want to take on this matter.
Because whether it is released or killed, there are huge hidden dangers, and they don’t want to take the blame.
Yang Heng had no choice but to name the name.
"Han Ming, you are one of my top generals, tell me."
Han Ming was helpless when he heard Yang Heng clicking his name, so he could only stand up and bow his fists and say, "You are the general, it's better to kill him if you see him."
"Oh, let me tell me the truth."
"Master General, Henan has now suffered a destruction by the pseudo-Song King. Even if we recover Henan again, we will not be able to support so many troops. Not to mention the court, the ability to maintain our military rations is considered to be a burning incense. I am afraid that we will not add 40,000 military rations to us."
"In this way, if they are put back into the countryside, perhaps these people gather together to occupy the mountains and become kings for the sake of stuttering, and then there will be no peace in Henan. It would be better to cut them out once and for all."
When Yang Heng heard this suggestion, he nodded secretly. Now killing these prisoners together is the most convenient way, and he will not be afraid of the imperial court bosses.
But Yang Heng turned over and thought that if he gave this order, he would probably be infamous for thousands of years, because the killing of prisoners has been unknown since ancient times.
Just when Yang Heng was in a dilemma, a female voice suddenly came from outside.
"What's the problem? I still have some savings, donate it to buy some military rations and support them for the time being."
As soon as this sentence fell, the golden cicada pattern walked in from outside.
When Yang Heng saw Jin Chanwen walking into the tent, he quickly stood up and stretched out his hand to greet him. After that, he ordered someone to prepare a chair for Jin Chanwen next to his handsome desk.
Jin Cicada Wisdom slowly walked into the central army's tent, then sat on the chair and looked down with his wonderful eyes, with a hint of disdain on the corner of his mouth.
After Yang Heng sat down again, he looked at Jin Chanwen and said, "Did you say you want to donate your money to support these 40,000 people? Isn't it a bit of a loss?"
In fact, Yang Heng didn't want Jin Cicada to take over this matter. Now Jin Cicada is already his wife, and her money is also his own pocket, but if he donated it to support these 40,000 people, he would be useless if he didn't make a fuss.
Jinchanwen secretly gave Yang Heng a wink, and then said: "Behind these 40,000 people are 40,000 families, each of them is the pillar of the family. If we kill them, 40,000 families will go bankrupt. What should we do if so many refugees are there?"
After saying this, the Golden Cicada Pattern still looked at the generals below, and looked at the generals and the Golden Cicada Pattern's eyes paired with their eyes and lowered their heads in shame.
Although Yang Heng and Jin Chanwen have not been together for a long time, they still know her personality very well. This lady has never been merciful and has suddenly been worried about the families of these people. I am afraid there is a reason for this, but it is hard to ask now.
"Since the lady is very merciful, I won't say anything. The forty thousand people are temporarily placed in another camp and will be led by the lady, so let's not worry about it."
The generals below finally breathed a sigh of relief when they heard Yang Heng's general order, so they would not have to bear the charge of killing prisoners.
"Okay, that's what happened today. I will bring the army into Kaifeng City this afternoon. You must not slackew."
After hearing Yang Heng's words, the generals held their fists and bowed their heads to leave the central army's tent.
After all the generals left, Yang Heng stood up and came to the Jinchan tattoo sitting there, holding her shoulder and asked, "Madam, what do you mean?"
Jinchanwen smiled at the corner of her mouth, and her right hand couldn't help but touch her abdomen, and then said, "My husband, I'm also thinking about your future."
"Oh, Madam tell me."
Jinchanwen glanced at Yang Heng with a wonderful eye, and then said confidently: "Since ancient times, the great achievements have shocked the master. He used his husband's ability to quell the rebellion in the world. It was just a backhand. When the day of his success, how should the emperor treat him?"
Yang Heng's heart trembled when he heard the question from the Golden Cicada Pattern.
He had never thought about this before, and now he often reminded Yang Heng of the darkness of politics.
In ancient times on the earth plane, emperors killed many heroes, and this has become a rule.
When Yang Heng thought that in this plane in another world, the emperor should not be immune to the vulgarity.
If this is true, then you have to make some arrangements and prepare for a way out.
Although I have magical powers, I am not afraid of the emperor's rebellion, but I still have family members after all.
When he thought of this, Yang Heng couldn't help but touch the golden cicada pattern next to him, and then he had made up his mind to not be able to stand still.
"What the lady means is to cultivate these forty thousand people into their own confidants so that they can go in the future?"
When Jinchanwen saw Yang Heng reacting, he nodded with satisfaction, and then continued: "How can these 40,000 people be enough? In the next battle, my husband should continue to recruit prisoners, and then I will take them all under my command. When the time comes, my husband will be very good at soldiers and food. I don't think that the emperor dares to be too presumptuous."
"Okay, this matter will be done as the wife said. The forty thousand people will be handed over to the wife for leadership."
After saying this, Yang Heng's eyes became deeper.
When Jinchanwen heard Yang Heng agreeing with his opinion, the corner of his mouth once again showed an excited smile, and at the same time, his hand touched his abdomen again.
On the same day, Yang Heng followed Jin Chanwen and took his personal soldiers into the prisoner camp.
Then Yang Heng summoned the prisoners and said some comforting words, which finally calmed down the original uneasy hearts of the prisoners.
Because these people were the first to follow the pseudo-Song King to rebel, they were afraid that the court would not forgive them and executed them all, so they connected each other last night, thinking about how to survive in death.
As a result, today the enemy's commander came to the prisoner camp to comfort them and promised them not to kill anyone and ensure that their private property was safe.
This made everyone in the prisoner camp grateful, and the look of looking at Yang Heng began to turn vigilant into reverence.
Next, it was time for Golden Cicada Pattern to appear. She first introduced her identity to everyone, who was Yang Heng's wife, and then announced to everyone that from now on, she would be controlled by her captive camp.
The prisoners were very welcome to the arrival of the Golden Cicada Pattern, because the Golden Cicada Pattern was a woman and should be kind-hearted. Such people control the prisoner camp and their lives are easier.
At noon that day, a group of subordinates emerged from somewhere. These people rushed into the camp with pigs and sheep, and then started to work hard. At noon that day, all the prisoners ate a meal of meat and vegetables.
In this way, the morale of the entire camp slowly moved closer to Yang Heng's side, and the purpose of the Golden Cicada Pattern was also achieved.
However, what made Yang Heng a little wary was that there were actually some generals under Jinchanwen's command, and these people had not weak management abilities. After only more than an hour, they commanded their respective troops, allowing the captive camp to barely fight.
