Seeing that his soldiers were being "beaten" mercilessly by the Shangdang people, Wang Hao's face instantly turned ugly. Then he coldly said to Lian Po on the side: "General Lian Po, don't you care?"
Lian Po naturally saw the lively scene under the city tower, but for Zhao Jun, this scene was a rare and comfortable scene - I can't kill you, so why can't I disgust you?
Facing Wang Lu's question, Lian Po shrugged and said he was helpless. It's not my people who started the conflict, and it's not my sergeants who beat people with rocks. It's okay if I don't order help, but you still want me to help you suppress your own people?
How can it be!
What's more, Qin Jun is the one to blame for all this. If the people were not really pushed to the point of unspeakable misery, would the people of Shangdang dare to throw stones at this dark group of Qin troops? Even if the Qin army is now unarmed, even if there are Zhao troops escorting them around.
Therefore, the only reason to blame is that the Qin army went too far in conquering the people of Shangdang.
Of course, Lian Po said that since General Wang Lu had raised it, he still had to respond.
Then Lian Po said slowly: "Don't worry, General Wang. The order was issued yesterday. Our army has already cleaned the streets. The larger stones have been cleaned up. It's just some dirt and rubbish. At most, it's just dirty clothes. As for the people, We still need to let them vent."
Of course Wang Hao knew that these small amounts of rubbish could not hurt the Qin army at all, and even if there were large rocks, the casualties of several Qin soldiers would not need a general like him to worry about.
However, this kind of behavior by the people is not very lethal, but it is extremely insulting. Especially for the defeated Qin army, it was humiliating enough to lay down their weapons and enter the city with bare hands. Now that they were spurned by the Shangdang people, this was an almost devastating blow to morale.
Of course, Wang Lu must stop the further development and spread of this matter as soon as possible.
As he said this, he seemed to want to slap Lian Po in the face.
A wailing sound came from the ranks of the Qin army. A stone pulled out from nowhere smashed into the ranks of the Qin army. Immediately, one of the Qin soldiers suffered a head injury and bloodshed.
Wang Hao pointed at the fallen Qin army under the tower. His eyes were filled with anger, and he was even speechless.
"Accident, definitely an accident." Lian Po said with a sneer, then turned to the messenger and said: "Go, let me check immediately, who is responsible for cleaning the streets here, I must punish him severely."
"Yes!" the ordering soldier immediately accepted the order, but the ordering soldier did not know what Lian Po meant. He was afraid that "severe punishment" was false, while "heavy reward" was true.
Looking at the playful and smiling face of the messenger, Wang Hao knew without guessing that there would be no follow-up to this matter, and even if there was a follow-up, it was definitely not the follow-up he wanted to see.
Seeing that there was no benefit at all from Lian Po, Wang Hao's eyes immediately turned to Prime Minister Fan Sui.
Fan Sui understood, and immediately said slowly to Lord Pingyang and Doctor Lou Chang: "My two gentlemen, when we discussed with your generals yesterday, both of them were present. The prerequisite for our army to put down their weapons and enter and leave Jiepailing is, But Zhao Jun is responsible for the security in Jiepai Ridge. Now, there are mobs rebelling against the army. Why is Zhao Jun just watching? If so, the rear of our army should enter the city with weapons. If there is any misunderstanding due to this, , the responsibility lies entirely with you, Zhao State."
Lou Chang wanted to speak to Qin, but unfortunately the pain behind his back made him shut up in time. Even though Zhao Kuo was not present now, this was still Shangdang after all.
"This?" Lord Pingyang was obviously in a dilemma. From the bottom of his heart, Lord Pingyang, as a native of Zhao, was naturally happy to see the Qin army in embarrassment, but Lord Pingyang was also afraid that if the Qin people really entered the city with weapons, things would be troublesome. .
Pingyang Jun also knew that although he was the king's envoy, it was obvious that the whole army did not want to see him now, so he immediately looked at Pingyang Jun.
Lord Pingyuan had no choice but to look at Lian Po again.
Lian Po also knew that things should not be overdone, because going too far is not enough. Then he ordered the Zhao army to maintain order and slightly separate the Qin army from the people. The people's anger and resentment was also vented a little in the output. Seeing the Zhao army coming to maintain order, it was considered to be temporarily extinguished.
.
A seemingly anticlimactic mass uprising then dissipates invisible. However, silence is often the signal for a gathering storm.
People's hearts and minds are easy to gain. It's so easy to just distribute a few rice and some clothes so that they can have enough food and clothing. People's hearts and minds are even hard to lose. Unless they are forced to the point where they have no way to survive, the flag above their heads will be red or black. It doesn't matter; but the most difficult thing for people's hearts is to regain it after it is lost.
Trusting this thing is really mysterious.
Obviously, the Qin State once had the trust of the Shangdang people. They believed that the powerful Qin State would bring them a life different from that of the Han State. Otherwise, the Qin army would not advance so fast, so fast that Lian Po would not even have time to set up a defensive line.
Unfortunately, after three years of war, all the promises made by the Qin State were in vain. Even the "Qin people" in Hanoi were conscripted onto the battlefield, let alone the people in Shangdang County-the corvee was almost It never stopped, and the food collection was repeated over and over again.
Qin and Zhao fought, Shangdang suffered, and Hanoi suffered. Compared with the Qin State, the Zhao State did not cause much harm to the people of Shangdang because it occupied less territory. This further caused the people of Shangdang to turn to Zhao instead of Qin.
If this battle is successful, the King of Qin will be able to more or less restore some people's hearts with some tax exemptions, exemption from corvee and promotion of noble titles, and then send a capable minister to manage it. After three or five years, Shangdang and Hanoi's The pain gradually scabbed over and passed.
However, the final victory fell to Zhao Guo.
If the Qin State wants to conquer the territory of Shangdang or even Hanoi, I am afraid that the people alone will not be able to agree.
And Shangdang and Hanoi are connected to Hedong, and Hedong goes to Hexi...
Of course, these are all things for later.
Although under the maintenance of Zhao Jun, the people of Shangdang no longer acted impulsively, but the Qin Jun walking among them felt more like being captured, and one can imagine the depression in their hearts.
Under the scorching sun, the spears standing on both sides of the avenue glowed with cold light, piercing so hard that the soldiers of the Qin army could not open their eyes. Unconsciously, the bodies of Qin's soldiers became a little stooped.
If given a choice, the soldiers of the Qin army would rather be smashed to death by those rubbles than shuttle through the forest of Zhao army's spears. But this happened because the top brass of the Qin Army lost pressure on the generals of the Zhao Army...
What else can be done?
Just keep your head down and move forward. The depressing atmosphere made Jiepailing, which was in late summer, even hotter and hotter. Everyone was holding a breath of bad breath in their hearts, but they still couldn't get out.
And this walk is a whole day.
