Nine dragons fight for the throne, I don't want to sit on this throne
Chapter 1179 I don’t mind killing one more person!
"Your Highness, the Crown Prince of Chu, although General Liu did make a mistake, please forgive him this time for his efforts in resisting the Qin army."
"Yes, General Liu suffered heavy casualties this time. If we capture General Liu now, it may cause trouble."
"Please, Prince Chu, spare General Liu this time for his hard work."
"Your Highness, the Crown Prince of Chu, General Liu is the garrison commander here after all. If we capture him right after our victory, I'm afraid it will disappoint the soldiers below."
No matter what, Chu Ning's attempt to capture Liutian would be disadvantageous to all the Zhou Dynasty generals.
Firstly, it will affect morale, and secondly, some people will inevitably think that Chu Ning wants to take advantage of the victory to capture Liutian and gain command of the troops here.
For a moment, all the generals on the scene pleaded for Yanagida.
Even Xue Huaide frowned and said in a deep voice: "Prince of Chu, perhaps General Liu's command in this battle was inappropriate.
But this cannot be entirely blamed on General Liu. After all, he was hesitant because he was worried that the soldiers under him would not be able to resist.
Fortunately, our dynasty won this battle in the end. Please show some mercy, Prince Chu!"
As a general of the Zhou Dynasty, in charge of all troops, Liu Tian was naturally one of his subordinates.
Now that his subordinates are in trouble, Xue Huaide cannot just stand by and watch them die.
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief when they heard this.
If we were to say who had the best relationship with Chu Ning at the scene, it would definitely be Xue Huaide.
As long as Xue Huaide opens his mouth, he believes Chu Ning will give him some face.
What's more, Xue Huaide was a great general of the Zhou Dynasty, holding a high position of power. I believe Chu Ning would not fail to give Xue Huaide this face.
But Chu Ning narrowed his eyes when he heard this, slowly stood up, and said in a cold voice: "If it were in my Chu State, Liu Tian would be sentenced to death if he fails in the battle!
I have spared his life and only put him under house arrest, which is already a mercy beyond the law."
As soon as these words were spoken, the faces of the generals changed drastically, and even Yanagida himself looked very ugly.
None of them expected Chu Ning to be so resolute.
But then, Chu Ning added: “However, since General Xue Huaide has asked for mercy, I cannot but give him face.
How about this, the house arrest will be cancelled. General Yanagida will wait for news from the empress in his mansion during this time.
Before that, you can't go anywhere, and leave your troops under the command of General Xue Huaide!"
Although Chu Ning did want to concentrate the military power here in his hands.
But he also understood that if he did so at this moment, everyone would think that he was abusing his power for personal gain.
So what if he is famous, or if he leads the people to defeat the Qin army, or if he has made great contributions?
Once the generals think that he is trying to seize military power, these soldiers can kill him without waiting for the Qin army to attack.
Therefore, he was not in a hurry to take over the military power here, but let Xue Huaide lead it.
At this moment, Xue Huaide had not yet reacted to the previous question. When he suddenly heard Chu Ning handing over the military power to him, he was a little stunned.
"Why, General Xue doesn't want to lead the garrison here?"
Seeing that Xue Huaide was slow to speak, Chu Ning couldn't help but laugh.
Xue Huaide reacted and immediately bowed and saluted: "I obey your orders!"
After saying that, he glanced at Yanagida beside him, with a hint of apology in his eyes.
"General Liu, I believe you have no choice but to resort to this desperate measure!"
Xue Huailiu De stepped forward, took Liu Tian's hand, and said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty will definitely give General Liu a satisfactory answer."
But Liu Tian snorted coldly, looked at Xue Huaide deeply, and then moved his gaze to Chu Ning.
"Do you think you can rest easy just because you've captured me?"
"You can easily take down this general today, and from now on you can easily take down anyone."
After saying this, Yanagida turned around and walked out of the hall.
Upon seeing this, all the generals present looked at each other, with a flash of horror in their eyes.
Although Chu Ning did not kill Liu Tian, he imprisoned Liu Tian in his mansion, which was the same as capturing Liu Tian.
But they didn't dare say these words out loud, they could only lower their heads and let Yanagita pass by them and leave.
After Liu Tian was taken away, Chu Ning looked indifferent. He glanced at everyone and a cold light flashed in his eyes.
"Generals, no matter how you feel, if you work under me and fail to complete the tasks assigned by me, you must accept punishment!"
Chu Ning said calmly: "Next, let's talk about the remaining 50,000 soldiers of the Qin army."
"This time, I will make sure they never return. All 100,000 soldiers will be annihilated here!"
When these bold words were spoken, all the generals present were horrified.
The 50,000 troops led by Li Xing were not ordinary Qin troops, but a force consisting of 40,000 cavalry and 10,000 spearmen.
With such a configuration, even if they were surrounded by the Zhou army, the enemy could rely on the charge of their war horses to defeat the Zhou army.
On the other hand, the Zhou army did not dare to take the initiative to fight in the face of such a famous general.
Everyone knows how powerful the Qin army is. What's the difference between attacking at this time and committing suicide?
While everyone was surprised, Xue Huaide frowned and asked, "Does the Crown Prince of Chu have any news about Li Xing and others?"
Chu Ning nodded slightly and said with a smile: "I have always known his whereabouts. According to the time, he should arrive today or tomorrow.
Therefore, if we want to take action, our army doesn't have much time left. Do you generals have any good ideas?"
As soon as he finished speaking, the scene fell into complete silence.
Li Xing is no ordinary person, and the main force of the Qin army under his command is no pushover.
Although they defeated the Qin army this time, no one was sure of being able to fight against Li Xing and the Qin cavalry.
Once Li Xing brings his troops here, they will have no way to retreat.
Humans only have two legs, how can they escape from a four-legged warhorse?
So, they could only brainstorm.
For a moment, there was a lot of chattering at the scene.
"If Li Xing comes here with cavalry, we don't have to engage in battle. Let's see what they do!"
"Yes, if we can defeat the Qin army once, we can defeat them many times."
"Why don't we take the initiative and attack? Maybe we can break their formation and then we can take advantage of them."
"No, the fighting power of our army is well known to everyone. If we go to war with Li Xing's 50,000 main forces, our army will definitely be defeated."
The generals said all kinds of things and expressed their opinions.
Seeing that the situation was about to get out of control, Chu Ning raised his eyebrows, revealing a hint of displeasure;
"okay!"
These two short words revealed Chu Ning's dissatisfaction.
I wanted everyone to come up with a plan to deal with the situation, but I didn't expect that these generals didn't have any good ideas.
Seeing the situation like this, Chu Ning could only personally give the order: "The most urgent thing is to find out Li Xing's whereabouts first."
"Also, set up an ambush on their route and kill as many as possible."
"In addition, the results of this battle must be publicized. I want to demoralize the Qin army!"
"That world-famous Li Xing, humph, I want to see how he responds this time."
So what if he is a world-famous general?
Chu Ning was not afraid at all.
Countless famous generals have died at Chu Ning's hands, he doesn't mind one more!
