Royal Gold Medal County Magistrate

Fang Zheng let out a roar, and Zhang Biao immediately turned around and ran back.

Zhou Tie, holding the ammunition belt in one hand, cursed at Zhang Biao: “You idiot! Military orders are like mountains! Who told you to charge forward without orders! I couldn’t even hold you back!”

Zhang Biao snorted coldly.

“Alright, alright! Hurry back!” Fang Zheng waved his hand to dismiss him.

Although the enemy was in disarray in front of the battle, the fighting had clearly not stopped.

Although their own shooting paused for a moment, it was only for that moment. The subsequent attacks continued, only with a significantly reduced frequency.

Li Yuanzhao stared intently at the situation of the enemy's main force, and said forcefully: “Do not stop firing without my order! Continue shooting!”

The military order was conveyed, and the shooting continued.

The situation had already greatly reversed, and it was not as tense as at the beginning.

Fang Zheng looked around, and all he could see were corpses everywhere, a scene of devastation.

Coupled with the strong smell of blood and gunpowder in the air, he couldn't help but show a bitter expression.

The feeling of killing people was not pleasant, especially since he knew clearly in his heart that the other party was being used or even forced to fight as innocent cannon fodder.

This battle was too fierce. Perhaps tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of people had already died on the battlefield.

This bloody tragedy happening before his eyes was really somewhat unacceptable.

Looking at those Jinyi Guards who were raising their guns and shooting, many people's expressions had become numb.

Even though the situation had eased down, they were still gritting their teeth, their cheeks bulging, their expressions ferocious and painful.

Clearly, they were the overwhelmingly dominant side, but they seemed as if they were about to be defeated. Clearly, the psychological pressure had already been immense.

A person's ability to withstand pressure has its limits...

Fang Zheng had seen many remarks that people in ancient times were psychologically strong and not as fragile as modern people, suffering from psychological disorders at the drop of a hat.

Now, after seeing this, it was not the case at all... but rather that these insignificant people had always been ignored by history.

These soldiers had never been brainwashed to believe that the enemy was an unforgivable villain. All they knew was that they were fighting against rebellious traitors.

But what did the rebellious traitors have to do with the lower-level soldiers? The reason for killing people was not sufficient at all.

Such efficient slaughter of the same kind was also not in line with animal nature.

Especially the main force, the Jinyi Guards. A large part of the Jinyi Guards' training strategy was personally determined by him.

In terms of values, they were closer to modern people, and in this cruel and bloody environment, their ability to withstand pressure was even worse than that of ordinary soldiers.

If they continued to kill like this, I'm afraid these people would have psychological problems for the rest of their lives...

Although he thought so, Fang Zheng did not say anything.

After all, there was only one commander on the battlefield, and their situation was not completely safe yet.

On the battlefield, the flags of the Prince of Wu and the various generals moved.

This time, it was no longer forward, but backward, showing obvious signs of retreat.

In the current situation, even generals who chose to fight to the death had to retreat.

Besides the order to retreat being useful, issuing other orders might cause even greater internal strife.

The defeated soldiers came like a tide, and retreated like a tide.

Except for the soldiers on the front line who were physically and mentally exhausted, the rest of the enemy soldiers were running away frantically.

Because discipline was out of control, these people fled in different directions, and a large number of people directly began to desert the army.

As the 'tide' receded, the dense corpses on the battlefield were revealed, as well as tens of thousands of surrendered soldiers who had completely given up on escaping and abandoned their weapons...

And the guns of Da Jing were still reaping the lives of these surrendered soldiers who had already been frightened.

“The whole army pursues! Heavy machine guns stay in place!” Seeing the enemy retreating in disarray, Li Yuanzhao gave a new order with bloodshot eyes, and turned to Fang Zheng and said, “Lao Fang, I will go and attack the enemy, you stay here and watch them.”

Fang Zheng rushed forward and grabbed his sleeve, and said urgently: “Stop firing immediately, these are all prisoners, you can't kill them anymore!”

“What nonsense are you talking about!” Li Yuanzhao shook off his sleeve forcefully, pointed at the battlefield and said angrily, “Look! There are still tens of thousands of people here, who may riot and resist at any time, the risk is still there!”

“Even if they don't resist, how can we take so many prisoners? We simply don't have enough food to supply them, and a great disaster will inevitably occur later!”

Fang Zheng stared at him, and pointed to the location of General Mord and others: “If you want to become the ruler of the world and govern all directions, you must stop! Those people are watching you, killing them will be an unjust war!”

“Look at our Jinyi Guards, they are not murderers! Now everyone is carrying hundreds or thousands of lives on their backs, and they are almost at their limit!”

“Occupying an absolute advantage, you must be tolerant and benevolent to rule the world, wake up!”

Li Yuanzhao looked around and frowned deeply: “Then tell me what to do, what about those surrendered soldiers, what about the hidden dangers!”

“Yes, you are right, not killing them all will leave hidden dangers.” Fang Zheng looked at him directly and said heavily, “Every choice has risks. Do you want the world, or a temporary victory in one place? Think carefully before you act.”

“Perhaps it was possible to kill prisoners in the past, but the situation of the war has changed, the situation of the world will also change, and the future war ethics will change even more. This is different from the past. You must set an example for the world, and now is your chance to show your power.”

Li Yuanzhao fell into a battle between heaven and man.

Fang Zheng looked at those surrendered soldiers who had already collapsed, and had a flash of inspiration: “Let those generals who came with us take these surrendered soldiers away, and leave them five days of food. Enduring it is enough to hold on until they return to the towns in the rear, where there is food.”

“We are only pursuing Wu Wang's main force now. Your Majesty, don't forget... there are still four nails beside Wu Wang. We may not have to fight again. First, keep a close watch on them, and take advantage of the other side's morale to see if the Brotherhood can succeed. If not, it will not be too late for us to fight again.”

“Well... good! This is a win-win solution.” Li Yuanzhao raised his head, “Lao Fang, I will reorganize the team first. You go and talk to those people as soon as possible. Don't delay too long, let's set off as soon as possible.”

Fang Zheng nodded, found a horse and galloped towards General Mord and the others.

Mord and a group of generals stood in the distance.

Each of them was crowded together with dull eyes and pale faces.

Although they did not join the battlefield, they could see clearly what happened in the battlefield.

Scary, too damn scary!

Two of them vomited directly, almost throwing up their intestines!

Although many people could be called battle-hardened, it was the first time they had seen such a tragic, one-sided war.

The exaggerated number of deaths even topped the entire army of some countries.

And the army of Da Jing did not seem to be fighting like humans!

The descent of the gods was nothing more than this, blocking the enemy hundreds of meters away without losing a single soldier.

It cannot be said that it was the descent of the gods. This army was simply a natural disaster... the entire land had been covered with blood.

At this moment, Mord completely understood why the Emperor of Da Jing and Marquis Jianye were so relaxed as if they were on a picnic.

They really came for a picnic....

He had worried that Da Jing's strong occupation of the six major dioceses would pose a potential threat to Xiluo and even other countries.

Now it seems... he was too ridiculous.

With such strength, people would not even look at them directly....
