In the palace of the city lord in Xiangcheng, the soldiers of the Chu State had captured all the family members. After ensuring safety, they allowed Roy to move in and temporarily regarded this place as a military base camp.

Orders were issued one after another from Roy's mouth, and the entire city lord's mansion was in a panic.

It was also in this chaos that Liu Ji came here with Xiao He and others.

"Did it disturb the general's office?"

Liu Ji stood at the bottom, hugging Roy in front of him and bowing his head slightly.

Her tone was very soft, much softer than the cheeky and prickly look when they first met. She secretly raised her head to look. Looking forward, when she noticed that Roy was looking right at him, she felt panicked and quickly lowered her head.

Fortunately, she was lowering her head, otherwise people would turn red when they saw Pei Gong. That would definitely be Big news.

But Xiao He, who was standing behind Liu Ji, still noticed it. He was a person who was good at observing people's emotions. After noticing that Liu Ji's ear beads were a little red, Xiao He felt indescribably weird.

He first raised his eyebrows He started to look at Roy.

Well, although General Xiang was like a demon on the battlefield, invincible, he definitely looked like a handsome young man.

He then looked at the Lord next to him.

Although Pei Gong was careless, sometimes he talked like a gangster. , but I have to say that Pei Gong is also very handsome, otherwise he would not be sought after by so many widows in Peixian County. Thinking about it this way, Xiao He felt that the taste was even more wrong. Could it be that these two people were like King Wei to Long Yang? Like you, Long Yang is good!

Well, this idiom needs to be changed now, and it should be called"Pei Gong is good".

He filled up countless words in his mind in an instant. If it were in modern times, he would probably be an expert. A rotten girl who makes fun of CP.

But even if his lord is as good as Long Yang, he can't care about it. Xiao He looks at his nose and heart and stands there without saying a word.

"Things have been told, so there is no need to disturb me."

Roy replied with a smile. He glanced at Liu Ji and saw that the other party had put on the fiery red dress again, but she stood there quietly like a little daughter-in-law. For a moment, he was stunned. Roy was a little embarrassed, why did this female gangster become a lady in front of him now? And you have to remember that you are a man now. If you are a man, don't show such a shy look!

"Is Pei Gong's injury okay?"

"It was fine. The doctor said it was just a small flesh wound. Apply some medicine and it would heal in a few days without leaving any traces. Liu

Ji waved her left hand and replied quickly.

After hesitating for a moment, she knelt down and said:"……Ji betrayed the general's trust. He was really unworthy of the general. He even asked the general to go out in person to save my life on the battlefield. I hope the general can take back his life and let Ji be a pawn."

If it were the Liu Ji of the past, this would mean retreating in order to advance, taking the initiative to take on her faults in exchange for a good reputation. At the same time, she could inspire others to give her another chance.

Because her position was appointed by Roy. If he withdraws the order now, it will easily make people think that he does not know people well.

Many people in power are very concerned about face and will never admit that they are not good enough. People with extremely thick skin like Liu Ji are rare.

But now Liu Ji really hopes that Roy can take back the order. She realizes that she is really not the type to fight, and is afraid that she will miss Roy's big event.

Roy shook his head and said:"……No one is born knowing everything, and no one is born knowing everything. Everyone learns a little bit and makes a little mistake before they can grow and progress. There is no need for Pei Gong to say these depressing words. One failure is nothing, as long as you don’t make the same mistake again next time. The error is"

"I……"

Liu Ji was deeply moved. She had some changes in her heart when she was rescued by Roy. Now when she faced Roy's words, every word almost made her heart expand infinitely and make her think wildly.

‘Could it be that the general is really interested in me? Otherwise, why would you treat me so well?……’

Her brain was a little dazed, but her heart felt happy. She had to carefully analyze every word Roy said for a long time, and she interpreted many unintelligible meanings.

There was still a touch of pride in her heart. A woman looks good to her, and a man dies for his confidant. Roy's actions almost took up both aspects. When she saw Yu Ji in the past, she still thought about how to get closer to her. He coveted her, but now Yu Ji's appearance flashed through Liu Ji's mind again, and he began to think about comparison.

Seeing Liu Ji's bewildered and touched look, Roy thought it was quite interesting that the thick-skinned Emperor Gao was so shy.

Xiao He on the side still pretended that he was a wooden person, as if he did not exist, and secretly sighed in his heart, these two people are indeed having an affair!

"Report! General, we have captured the city lord at the city gate. Do you want to bring him to see you?"

Just when the atmosphere in the city lord's mansion was getting weird, a soldier ran in and loudly reported

"How's it going in the city?"

Roy retracted his thoughts and asked in a deep voice.

"The entire city was cleared, and a total of more than 2,000 Qin soldiers were captured!"

The soldier shouted

"Well, there is no need to bring the city lord to see me, I can just order him to be cut in half."

Roy replied without thinking.

The kind of scene where an enemy resists desperately and would rather die than surrender after being captured. The lord is overjoyed and unbinds him personally. The scene of not killing the enemy is only found in novels. Reality is not such a fairy tale.

The other party is resisting so desperately, and you have killed and wounded countless soldiers, but you can still feel their loyalty and keep their lives. Wouldn't it chill the soldiers under your command? Isn't it telling others that as long as you see me, you will fight with all your strength? If you resist, I won't kill you?

So the most correct thing to do is to kill them with the cruelest punishment, so that anyone else who is your enemy will feel fear, and think about the consequences before becoming hostile to yourself.

"But we have investigated, what is the attitude of the residents in the city when they are defending the city?"

"General, after investigation, it was found that the residents of Xiangcheng collaborated with the violent Qin soldiers when our rebel army attacked the city, and gave them a lot of support!"

The soldier replied again.

"If this is the case, then order the entire army to celebrate for three days to let them vent their pressure."

Roy waved his hand and said coldly.

This order is undoubtedly to massacre the city!

"Yes, General!!"

The soldier said with great joy.

Massacre of a city seems extremely inhumane to modern people, but it was the norm in ancient wars, and it also had many benefits.

First, it was a way to tell the cities to be attacked next that all those who resisted me would be killed. If you don't want to be killed, then surrender obediently. This is a deterrent; secondly, ancient warfare is not just about pulling the trigger in modern warfare. Ancient warfare requires killing at close range, which can easily cause huge psychological pressure on soldiers. If If there is no outlet, when these pressures are on the verge of a critical point, they may cause the army to collapse.

The massacre of the city is undoubtedly a measure to relieve pressure.

Many famous generals and emperors have actually done these things, and only in peaceful times will there be civil servants. He denounced him in fierce terms, but if he really threw the civil servant on the battlefield, if he did not turn into a cold-blooded butcher, he would be the first to die.

War has never been kind, and war has never been a child's play.

Liu Ji wanted to say something Stop again

"Does Pei Gong have anything to say?"

Roy asked with a smile.

"Returning to the general, it is really inappropriate to massacre the city now. It is not good for your reputation. I think it is better for someone else to issue this order. Liu

Ji said with a frown. She had no objection to Roy's order. She also knew the importance of this move, but now she was thinking about Roy's reputation and didn't want Roy to let her down because of this kind of thing. His reputation was not good, so he tactfully reminded him to find someone to take the blame.

At this time, Roy looked to his side and behind him and asked a civil servant who was recording something on a bamboo slip:"……Have you written down everything Pei Gong said?"

"How should I remember this?"

The old civil servant said with cold sweat.

"Just remember that Xiangcheng was defeated, and Yu was very angry and wanted to massacre the city. Pei Gong was kind and kind, and he tried to admonish Yu and put in good words for the people of Xiangcheng. However, Yu didn't listen to his words and still went his own way!"

After speaking, Roy looked at Liu Ji again and said to her warmly:"……Since the Qin soldiers left a wound on Pei Gong's arm, I will sacrifice the life of his entire city to comfort Pei Gong."

These cruel, ferocious, and domineering words were horrifying.

But when Emperor Gao heard Roy's words, he almost cried for his love and care.
