Ying Feng led 15,000 light cavalry and swept across the battlefield.
They forcefully broke through the encirclement of the rebel army and brazenly slaughtered a bloody path paved with corpses.
He charged forward towards Wu Pass.
"Damned thief Qin, stay here!”
A wave of arrows stopped their charge.
Fan Kuai was furious.
They pounded their chests and stomped their feet, but could only watch Ying Feng leave easily.
He was unwilling!
That general was definitely a key figure in the Qin army.
If he killed him, it wouldn't be too much of a loss to lose thousands of people in this battle.
However, Ying Feng had successfully escaped.
Today, it could be said that he had suffered a double loss!
Fan Kuai shouted, furious.
"General Fan, remember not to pursue a desperate enemy.
Perhaps, this was also the scheme of that Qin general!”
Zhou Bo knew very well how powerful the Qin army was.
Afraid that Fan Kuai would act rashly, he hurriedly stopped him.
The Revolutionary Army had already suffered great losses, so there was no need for unnecessary casualties.
"Humph!"
Fan Kuai snorted and said unwillingly,"
"But if we let them go so easily, how are we going to explain to Liu Gong?”
Hearing this, Zhou Bo lowered his head and began to ponder.
During the sneak attack on Wu Pass, the rebel army had lost more than 20,000 men.
If they went back like this, their morale would definitely suffer a huge blow.
"The closest city to the Wu Pass is Pill Water.
There was a large amount of grain stored within.
As long as we can get the pill water, we can answer to Liu Gong when we return.”
"That's good!
Come, pass on the order.
Attack the Pill Water, regardless of gender or age.
Kill all who resist!"
Fan Kuai shouted angrily.
Zhou Bo's pupils constricted as he frowned.
Regardless of gender, age, or age, they would kill anyone who resisted?
If a person was robbed of food, they would also resist symbolically, right?
Fan Kuai's intention was clearly to massacre the city.
Even in the current chaotic era, killing everywhere.
It was normal for blood to flow like a river.
However, massacring a city was still an extremely cruel thing.
The main reason was that Pill Water City had already submitted to the Revolutionary Army.
However…
Although Zhou Bo had his doubts, he looked at Fan Kuai and fell silent.
He led his army and attacked Pill Water City without hesitation.
The failure to attack the Martial Pass would result in great losses.
If he went back like this, he would be severely punished.
Rather than letting himself be punished, he might as well plunder Pill Water City.
Isn't it nice to shift the blame?
As for the lives of the citizens of Pill Water City, what did it have to do with the Revolutionary Army?
To put it bluntly, the 200,000-strong army was a motley crew.
Before the defeat at Wu Pass, their morale was at its lowest.
Right now, they urgently needed a one-sided massacre.
Only then could he vent the resentment in his chest.
Under the night sky, the moonlight shone with a demonic light.
The originally bright moonlight seemed to have been dyed with a deep haze.
In the city by the Danshui River, the people were already asleep.
The entire city was silent.
How could they have expected this?
At this moment, a group of fierce bandits secretly attacked.
With a sharp weapon in hand, he violently broke through the city gate.
In the moonlight, a bloody massacre was carried out.
For a moment.
The entire Pill Water City was filled with screams and the thick smell of blood.
The rebel army laughed sinisterly and started a brutal massacre.
The so-called Liu Bang Revolutionary Army had completely exposed their beastly nature.
It had only been an hour.
The brutal Fan Kuai led his troops to guard Danshui and the people.
The massacre was complete.
Even the baby who was still in swaddling clothes and waiting to be fed.
He was also killed.
Needless to say, those old, weak, women, and children were killed immediately.
The air was filled with the pungent smell of blood.
Broken corpses littered the ground, and there were expressions of unwillingness and fear.
When people saw this, their bodies trembled.
In this chaotic world, human lives were like grass.
If he didn't want to be killed, he could only kill.
This was fate.
...........
It was a quarter past midnight.
"Pei Gong!
General Zhou and General Fan took down Pill Water City and seized a large amount of resources.
We have all the provisions, gold, silver, and other items we need. Please move your troops to the city.”
The vanguard envoy suddenly arrived.
Furthermore, he had brought news of Zhou Bo and Fan Kuai conquering Elixir Water City.
This caused the rebel army of the Pill Water Camp to boil with excitement.
They had been busy all the way, causing the rations in the army to continuously decrease.
There was no need to mention meat.
Now that they had conquered Pill Water City, they could finally feast and satisfy their appetites.
The soldiers present were excited just thinking about it.
Even Liu Bang was surprised to hear this.
He was just about to order the army to move to Pill Water City.
He filled his stomach.
"Pei Gong, please punish Fan Kuai and Zhou Bo.”
At this moment, Xiao He's face was cold.
He strode into the tent of the Middle Corps and said in a deep and fierce voice.
"Xiao He, do you know what you are saying?”
Fan Kuai and Zhou Bo had captured Danshui City and seized a large amount of grain, gold, and silver.
He is the hero of our Revolutionary Army!
It's fine if you don't ask for merit for them, but you want me to punish them?
What is the reason?"
Liu Bang's mouth was wide open as he exclaimed in shock.
A great merit?
It was better not to mention this.
At the mention of this, Xiao He became even angrier.
"Pei Gong!
If he had only taken the grain, gold, and silver from Pill Water City, it would have been fine.
But you know.
What inhumane things had Fan Kuai and Zhou Bo done in Elixir Water City?
Massacre the city!
They had actually ordered the massacre of the entire Danshui City!
The old, weak, women, and children were all killed!
Now, the city was littered with corpses, like hell on earth.
Apart from the rebel army, there was not a single Danshui citizen left alive!”
Liu Bang raised his eyebrows in surprise.
However, in reality, he didn't care too much about it.
They weren't on the same side, so it didn't matter if they were killed.
Although massacring a city was not benevolent, those who achieved great things did not care about trifles.
After all, Xiao He was just a scholar, and his heart was still too soft.
This was war.
Killing a few people was a common thing.
What was there to make a fuss about, even punishing his two generals?
Therefore, Liu Bang explained patiently,"
"Lord Xiao, I believe that the Qin army must be obstinate.
Zhou Bo and the others had no choice but to order a massacre.”
"In a situation where one's eyes are red from killing, some things are hard to avoid.
Xiangyu often did it.
Our army will only do this once, and there will be no next time!”
In the Battle of Dingtao, Xiang Liang, Lord Wuxin of Chu, died in battle.
In his rage, every time he attacked a city, he would order a massacre.
Everywhere he passed, there were mountains of corpses and seas of blood.
It's hard to see a living thing.
"Never again?
Do you really think there will be a next time?"
Xiao He shook his head indifferently.
"Not long ago, Danshui County sent an envoy over.
Announce your allegiance to our Pei County Revolutionary Army."
"Now, our army has broken our promise and attacked the Pill Water.
They even slaughtered cities.
If the world knew about this, how would the soldiers of our Revolutionary Army deal with themselves?”
From the words, he could hear it clearly.
Not to mention Zhou Bo and Fan Kuai, the two who killed enemies on the battlefield.
Even Liu Bang didn't care about the massacre.
In the long run, the Revolutionary Army would definitely become like the Qin Army.
In fact, it was even worse.
Wherever he passed, no matter the people or soldiers.
They all avoided him like snakes and scorpions.
Without saying anything else, Xiao He stood up and said solemnly,"
"If Liu Bang doesn't punish Zhou and Fan today, I will be punished.
I will never be able to join the Revolutionary Army again."
"Everyone in the world knows that Xiang Yu is cruel and ruthless.
Every time they passed by a city, they would massacre it.
As a result, the hearts of the people were lost and they were notorious.
Even King Huai of Chu was extremely wary of him.”
"Today, the Pei County Revolutionary Army will follow Xiang Yu's example.
That was a path of no return!
They talked about entering Guanzhong and saving the world.
They were just jackals of the same tribe as the Qin army and would only bring disaster to the world.
Such an ending was not what Xiao He wanted.
I think it's time for me to leave the Revolutionary Army and retire.”
