Chapter 247
The sky brightened, and the heavy rain that had lasted for several days finally stopped. The entire Yinguan City was soaked in water, leaving only the collapsed city wall and ruins.

But at this moment, Guo Jiajian's barracks beside the Hong River was already overcrowded.

Suddenly, Dian Wei broke into Guo Jia's big tent, his face was a little tired because he hadn't slept all night, but he couldn't hide his excitement.

"My lord, my lord, I" Dian Wei couldn't even speak fluently because he was so excited.

Guo Jia smiled, picked up a cup of tea and said, "Don't worry, talk after drinking water, speak slowly, don't worry."

Dian Wei took the tea and drank it down. Just as he was about to speak, he found Gao Shun, Xu Huang, Zhao Yun and others rushed in. Everyone was just like Dian Wei, looking tired but excited.

It was Chunyi who took the lead: "My lord, when the flood came, the Huns immediately lost their fighting power and all surrendered. Except for a few who died in accidents, most of them surrendered directly. We did some calculations and found that there were two More than 3000 prisoners. Hahaha, with 1000 people capturing 3000 people, we will become famous this time. Liu Bao wanted to escape in the chaos, but was caught by Zilong." , very excited.

"That's right." Xu Huang, who has always been relatively calm, also stood up: "This time we went from Guangwu City to Lixian County, and then from Lixian County to Yinguan City. The Xiongnu army we defeated was about 3000 people. It's too old. Ma's 3000 men, Bisha's [-] vanguard army, Liu Bao's [-] army, and even took down the Xiongnu Zuo Xianwang. This is unprecedented. Even Wei Qing and Huo Qubing were not so proud back then. record."

Guo Jia laughed it off. Although they won consecutive victories, these three victories were all achieved by strategy.Fighting Ye Lao Ma relied on internal and external pincer attacks, fighting Bisha relied on fire attack tactics, and beating Liu Bao relied on water attack tactics. I have suffered a heavy loss.

This is strength. Now I can win with a strategy, but I can't always be like this. In the future, Cao Cao, Yuan Shao, and Gongsun Zan are not comparable to the Huns. I still have to develop power quickly.

Amidst the laughter, there was someone who couldn't laugh at all. It was Sanjie and Butter who were in charge of the army's logistics.

"Third Sister, Ford, why are you unhappy? This is a big victory." The careful Xi Zhi discovered this and asked curiously.

Everyone looked at it together, and they were also puzzled. It was a rare game where less wins more. Instead of smiling, the two of them had a bitter face.

Butter looked at the crowd, stood up apologetically, and said, "Our army won a big victory, so I'm naturally happy. But my third sister and I are in charge of logistics, so we have to worry about it now."

"Why is that?" Dian Wei asked in bewilderment.

"You don't know." The third sister got up and answered: "Originally we only had more than 1000 people, and the logistical supplies were not a problem, but now more than 3000 people are detained in the prisoner-of-war camp, and every mouth needs to eat. With only a bowl of gruel, we won’t be able to manage our food for long.”

Everyone understood as soon as they heard it. The most important thing in marching and fighting is food. If there is no food, no matter how brave the army is, it will collapse on its own.

Gao Shun stood up at the same time, and said to Guo Jia: "The third sister and Ford are right. In addition, more than 2 Hun prisoners are strong and strong men, and there is a big problem in guarding them. We only have 1000 people can't be seen at all, even if they don't have weapons, if there is a riot, it will be a terrible thing for us."

Suddenly, the happy atmosphere in the big tent disappeared without a trace, and everyone became sad.

Guo Jia naturally understood that it was all because he was too weak to be happy even after winning a battle.

"My lord, since this is the case, why not kill them all, so as not to waste food." Dian Wei shouted.

All of a sudden, the whole big tent exploded.

"No, absolutely not." Xi Zhicai immediately objected categorically: "This is more than 2 lives. Kill them if you say so. Do you know how much damage this will do to the reputation of the lord? How can the lord stop him when this happens?" Do you have to live in the crowd? The people of the big man will probably regard the lord as a murderous demon king."

"But the Huns are the enemies of my great Han people. They should die for harassing our Han people." Chunyi supported Dianwei's opinion, and the Huns should be killed.

"I disagree." Zhao Yun said, "Killing the enemy on the battlefield, no matter how we kill or how the enemy dies, is justified. But at this moment, the Huns have become prisoners of war and are unarmed. How can we kill these unarmed people?" Obviously, Zhao Yun and Xi Zhicai are standing together.

Suddenly, the big tent was divided into two factions, arguing endlessly over whether to kill the Huns, and for a long time, neither side overwhelmed the other.

Helpless, everyone can only look at Guo Jia. As the lord, Guo Jia has the right to make decisions.

Guo Jia smiled and looked at the blushing crowd, and then asked Xiang Dianwei who wanted to kill the prisoners: "Wuji, if you are asked to kill these unarmed people, are you willing to do it?"

"I don't want to." Warriors have their own principles. For Dian Wei, killing the weak is an insult to him, let alone killing prisoners.

"But my lord, if it's for you, let alone kill the captives, I won't hesitate even if I am asked to commit suicide." Dian Wei continued.

"That's right. Me too." The one-eyed dragon Chunyi also stood up. He once risked his life to block an arrow in the back for Guo Jia, nearly died, and ended up blind in one eye. Naturally, no one doubted his and Dian Wei's loyalty.

"My lord, and me." Li Ren said not to be outdone, the three of them were the main force insisting on killing the prisoners.

Guo Jia smiled happily, but this smile made Zhao Yun feel bad, and immediately retorted: "I know you are loyal to the lord, but are you the only ones in this big tent who are willing to die for the lord? No Speaking of others, let’s talk about military division and Yingtian, none of them can die for the lord. So don’t threaten each other with death.”

"You said we threatened each other with death?" Chunyi couldn't bear it, and immediately confronted each other again.

Seeing that the two sides were about to quarrel again, Guo Jia coughed lightly and stopped everyone's quarrel: "I, Guo Jia, are just a down-and-out kid. I couldn't even guarantee my own life and death, but today, I have brothers who have died like you!" , I am happy!"

"My lord!" Hearing Guo Jia's emotion, everyone's expressions were moved, and many of them were also people with twists and turns. If it wasn't for Guo Jia, where would they be today?

Guo Jia smiled lightly: "I know that you are willing to die for me, but I don't want you to die, I want you to live, and join me in holding the three-foot sword and making great achievements."

"Yes, my lord!" There was a plopping voice, and everyone knelt down in unison, their eyes flushed.

"Wuji, I don't think I can let you kill people today, but in the future, we will have a lot of opportunities to go to the battlefield and kill them to our heart's content." Guo Jia looked at Dianwei and the others apologetically, and said emotionally.

"My lord, I will do what you say." Dian Wei's eyes became redder, and the nine-foot man was about to cry, and he said in a firm but trembling voice.
