The First Tyrant of Daxia

Chapter 2449 Giving Up is Also a Choice

It’s no wonder Christina was so shocked. It’s really Qin Yun’s idea that was too shocking.

Since ancient times, the key to marching and fighting a war is to maintain the morale of the army.

Christina had not read Daxia's military books, but she knew that in a war, military morale and fighting spirit were very important.

If two armies are fighting, one of them has no morale and fighting spirit, but the other army has firm morale and unparalleled fighting spirit.

Then this battle will definitely be a victory for the army with unparalleled fighting spirit and stable morale.

This is beyond doubt.

As the saying goes, the first attack is as powerful as a tiger, the second is weaker, and the third is exhausted.

This is about the importance of momentum. If there is no momentum, there is no need to fight this war at all.

When Christina heard Qin Yun say that he wanted to let the people leave the city, she thought it was a good idea. After all, the people were not on the same page as them. Instead of letting them become an unstable bomb, it would be better to let them choose whether to leave or not.

But those soldiers are the foundation of their defense of this city!

No matter how powerful a weapon is, it needs people to use it to show its power!

If no one uses these weapons, what's the difference between them and a pile of scrap copper and iron?

Christina believed that if Qin Yun's decree was promulgated, at least half of the soldiers in the main city of Noki would choose to abandon Qin Yun and leave. Qin Yun had no reason to let these soldiers stay here.

In other words, as long as Qin Yun's words spread, the main city of Noki will soon become an empty city.

The soldiers who can stay at such a critical moment are truly iron-willed and passionate men who are willing to defend their country.

But the question is, how many such soldiers are there in this city?

Christina felt that human hearts could not stand the test, just like Tagrofi. A misunderstanding made Christina see everything clearly.

"Your Majesty, I don't think it's necessary to do this. These soldiers now obey your orders and can play a role in defending the city. There is no need to test them." Christina said earnestly. She thought Qin Yun wanted to test the loyalty of these soldiers, so he did this.

That's why she felt that there was no need to do this. After all, pretending to be ignorant when one knows the truth is the best option.

Qin Yun smiled gently, pinched Christina's soft jade hand and said: "Christina, if you want to be a capable person beside me, do you know what the most important thing is?"

Christina was shocked and immediately understood what Qin Yun meant: "Okay, Your Majesty, I will follow your order and announce it. I hope you won't blame me."

She knew very well what kind of person Qin Yun was. If it weren't for the fact that she was Qin Yun's woman, anyone else who dared to question Qin Yun would probably have been beheaded.

Qin Yun smiled slightly: "Go, tell those dandelions without roots that they can choose to leave here and go anywhere, but don't come back."

Christina nodded slightly. She would no longer question any of Qin Yun's decisions because she faced the reality that Qin Yun was the real master here.

She looked back at the bloody high-ranking officials. Their end was very miserable and they had no way to survive.

Christina sighed and rode away. She didn't feel sorry for these high-ranking officials, but simply felt that they were too cruel.

But war is so cruel.

Qin Yun said: "Han Xuan, you take people to clean up this place and burn the bodies, otherwise there will be problems. All the defense measures of the north gate also need to be rearranged."

Han Xuan nodded quickly: "I will follow your orders, Your Majesty."

Qin Yun left with peace of mind.

As for Fred, Qin Yun had no intention of spending time and energy hunting him down.

Qin Yun did not expect Fred's rebellion.

And the current chaos is basically a series of adverse reactions caused by Fred's defection.

The reason why Qin Yun decided to let the soldiers freely choose whether to leave or not was because Fred's defection had made it impossible for him to continue to lead the army.

Christina is right, military spirit and morale are very important things.

Qin Yun told the soldiers that they could leave if they wanted to before the battle even started. This was undoubtedly a huge blow to the morale of the army.

But Qin Yun really had no other choice.

To check and balance the army requires strength.

Qin Yun was not the general of the soldiers in the main city of Noki, he was just Fred's emperor. When Fred left the middle position, the bond between Qin Yun and this army was directly broken.

As an outsider, how can Qin Yun check and balance this army of 50,000 people?

Totally impossible!

Although Qin Yun still has 10,000 soldiers from the Shenji Battalion led by Mu Le under his command, he is also confident that he can lead these soldiers to defeat those soldiers.

But what time is it now?

Tagrofei will arrive soon with a large army, and the war will begin.

At this time, Qin Yun had no time to suppress and tame this army. Even if he succeeded, how great would the damage to the two armies be?

Take all of this into account.

Qin Yun knew that this army had to be abandoned.

If he didn't give up, not only would this army be useless to him, it would even cause trouble when he was fighting Tagrofi.

If there is a fire in the city, Tagrofi won't even have to do anything, they will tie Qin Yun up and hand him over to Tagrofi.

Sometimes, giving up is an option.

Qin Yun would rather choose an iron-blooded army of 10,000 to defend an empty city to the death than to defend a city with 50,000 fierce and ruthless criminals, because these 50,000 people could become his enemies at any time.

The soldiers who escaped are the best evidence.

They can escape today and rebel tomorrow. There is really no need to continue maintaining this army.

When Qin Yun returned to the City Lord's Mansion, Murong Shunhua rushed back.

"Thank you for your hard work." Qin Yun said with a smile.

In fact, at this time, it doesn’t matter whether to chase and kill the fleeing soldiers or not.

Murong Shunhua went out for a while and took Gongsun Wan'er to kill many fleeing soldiers and thugs, but his white clothes remained spotless.

On the other hand, Gongsun Wan'er was covered in blood or mud, and looked dirty. Her clothes were a little torn, and her face looked like a mud figure.

Qin Yun originally thought Murong Shunhua was quite gentle when she returned from a mission for him, but when he saw Gongsun Wan'er's miserable look, he couldn't help laughing.

"Your Majesty, is it so funny?" Gongsun Wan'er stared at Qin Yun with a pursed mouth.
