Forced into a substitute marriage? The concubine’s unparalleled medical skills amaze the world

The body fell from a great height, broken into pieces and looking horrible.

Not only was Zhou Jingxuan's face filled with anger, but even the Great Zhou soldiers who followed him went from being shocked to being furious.

They thought about what shady means Yao Chu would use.

However, on the battlefield, there are endless strategies, some of which are insidious, but everyone is used to it.

But this is the first time I have seen one's own people used to threaten the enemy.

If they disagree with something, they will kill the people directly.

This Yao pestle must be a beast.

These are his Wurong people, not the Great Zhou!

Seeing how Yao Chu killed so cleanly and efficiently, they all thought that the people on the city wall were not from Wurong, but from Da Zhou.

Zhou Jingxuan looked at Yao Chu sharply: "What are you doing!"

"Yao Chu, I used to respect you, but now you are really not worthy of being a human being!"

"Why do we march and fight? It's for our country and our people!"

"Look at what you are doing!"

Yao Chu looked at Zhou Jingxuan with a cold expression and said slowly: "I did this for Wu Rong."

"After all, if we have to blame someone, shouldn't we blame you, Zhou Jingxuan?"

"If your Great Zhou had not come to invade our Wurong territory, would this general have made such a decision?"

"Do you think I'm not sad or heartbroken for making these decisions?"

“But I’m doing this for this country.”

"If it works, sacrificing them is worth it!"

Zhou Jingxuan glanced at Yao Chu with disdain. He sneered, "Even ordinary people can be sacrificed by you."

"It seems that Wu Rong really shouldn't exist anymore."

"Yao Chu, I really look down on you!"

Although Yao Chu was humiliated by Zhou Jingxuan's words, he said nothing. Instead, he looked at Zhou Jingxuan coldly and said, "If you don't retreat, I will kill you again."

"Until Yangshou Pass becomes an empty city."

"Don't think I don't dare. Zhou Jingxuan, from the day I, Yao Chu, came to Yangshou Pass, I had no intention of returning alive."

"If a general wants to defeat a city, he will die!"

"As for these innocent people, they died because of you."

After listening to him, Zhou Jingxuan felt a little complicated.

It is really difficult to evaluate Yao Chu.

He is neither afraid of death nor will he flee from the battlefield.

But he committed the act of massacring the people.

I really don't know whether to say he is a good general or a bad person.

Yao Chu looked at Zhou Jingxuan standing there without making any statement. He waved his hand and another group of people were brought up: "Zhou Jingxuan, you better think it over."

"These people died because of you. You are so cruel that you didn't even save them."

"I have plenty of time for you to think about it."

"Wait a little longer, and I'll kill more people."

"Anyway, once the city is destroyed, they will be slaves of a conquered nation. Rather than living in vain, they might even thank me for making their deaths worthwhile."

Those who were forced onto the city wall were all the elderly, the weak, women and children.

They were hunched over, their faces filled with tears and fear, staring into the distance without saying a word.

The fear of death enveloped them.

Those were all people from the Great Zhou. Even if they didn't understand, they knew that the Great Zhou and Wurong were in a state of hostility. What did the death of these Wurong people have to do with them, the people of the Great Zhou?

Those people from the Great Zhou won’t care about them.

Zhou Jingxuan frowned and said nothing, he was also feeling a little conflicted.

These are all Wurong civilians, but they are also ordinary people without weapons.

The general beside him stood up and whispered to Zhou Jingxuan: "My Lord, what should we do now?"

"Should we retreat, or should we ignore the lives of those people?"

Zhou Jingxuan narrowed his eyes and looked at the people on the tower. He slowly asked, "What was your ideal when you joined the army?"

Deputy General Zuo scratched his hair and said, "I don't have any ideals. My family was poor and couldn't afford the taxes. If someone in my family could serve in the army, I could get a tax reduction, so I came here."

He paused, squinted his eyes and looked at the weak Wurong people on the tower, and his voice became a little softer: "Later, I saw too many miserable people, and I thought I should protect these people."

"Let them live in peace and security, and let them live in a stable environment."

After saying this, he hesitated for a moment and looked up at Zhou Jingxuan. He no longer called Zhou Jingxuan "Prince", but shouted: "Marshal."

"In my humble opinion, these unarmed civilians are no different from the people of the Great Zhou."

"They are also the ones I want to protect!"

"I know that war is cruel, but war is for a better future and longer peace!"

Zhou Jingxuan glanced at Deputy General Zuo and his heart moved slightly.

When he turned to look at Yao Chu again, the disgust in his eyes was undisguised: "Yao Chu, you win."

"Let's retreat!"

After saying that, Zhou Jingxuan shouted: "Retreat!"

The city that had already been taken was evacuated because of the people of Wurong.

There are all kinds of ideas in the army, and not everyone is like Deputy General Zuo.

Some people thought that they were just the people of Wurong and had nothing to do with them.

Since the Wurong people themselves don't want to give them a chance to live, just kill them.

As long as they win the battle, they will have made a contribution.

Zhou Jingxuan led his troops to retreat ten miles away. Even so, Yao Chu breathed a sigh of relief.

This shows that Zhou Jingxuan cares about the people.

No matter whether he was truly kind or just pretending, it was enough that he got the result he wanted.

Military Advisor Yan rolled his eyes and said, "General, I know they will compromise."

"Now as long as those people are in our hands, Zhou Jingxuan will not dare to act rashly."

"Unless he can rescue all the people in the city."

"He can't take down our Sheep Head Pass."

Hearing what Military Advisor Yan said, Yao Chu's brows furrowed even deeper.

He didn't think that he could control Zhou Jingxuan in this way. Perhaps this was not a long-term solution.

He was a general, so naturally he had heard the rumors about Zhou Jingxuan.

He is a man with the title of God of War. He is brave and resourceful, not just a reckless man.

Even if Zhou Jingxuan compromised today, he would quickly find a way to resolve the current dilemma.

Yao Chu didn't know how long he could delay.

Given the current situation, of course we have to delay it for as long as possible.

One more day, Wurong State will exist one more day.

Even though he knew that the final result was already visible, he still felt somewhat unwilling.

Zhou Jingxuan retreated thirty miles away and asked his people to set up camp.

Jiang Si was not with Zhou Jingxuan today. She was taking care of the wounded soldiers in the back.

Although we were unstoppable along the way, people are not made of iron and there were still casualties.

It’s just that there are not as many as Wu Rong.

There were still many wounded soldiers, and she and several military doctors worked from morning till night before they could barely get through.

When Jiang Si received the news of the retreat, she was stunned for a moment.

Judging from the current battle situation, we only need to wait another day or two to capture Yangshou Pass.
