Youzhou, Youbeiping County, Songzhou
After the city of Songzhou was broken, the second prince Tuobajin looked at the corpses all over the city and the civilians fleeing in a hurry and said proudly, “Youbeiping County is not good.”
He Ximing, who was standing by, smiled, “It’s our Xianbei army too strong.”
“My sons, the next three days will be your carnival time! Start the massacre of the city!”
Tuobajin ordered the massacre of the city to punish their previous stubborn resistance!
It was because of their resistance that the fourth brother Tuobayu, who attacked Yanmen, took the city one step faster than him.
“Long live the Khan! The second prince is thousand years old!”
The Xianbei soldiers began to cry and howl. After the howl, they began to pounce on the unarmed people in the city like wolves.
He Ximing did not stop it, because the massacre of the city was more beneficial than disadvantages for them.
Their war with Dali has just begun. Although Songzhou was captured by them, these ordinary people are also enemies. They will kill them all to avoid becoming obstacles in the future!
Moreover, the massacre of the city can plunder materials and quickly replenish their consumption of siege.
In addition, you can threaten and intimidate other cities and make them give up resistance. Look, we have said that if the surrendered people do not kill the people in the city, you must not listen. Now the massacre of the city is your end.
Finally, the soldiers need to vent.
“Second Prince, there is news!”
Tuobajin was happy when he saw it. It turned out that it was the news that Pingzhou transported tax grain.
After reading it, he handed the letter to He Ximing.
He Ximing opened the letter and found that the team transporting tax grain in Pingzhou had just passed.
“Old Qi can’t do it. My second brother needs to do this military achievements!” Tuobajin said proudly.
“Second Prince, let’s divide the troops.” He calculated that if they moved south quickly now, they might intercept the grain transport team in Linyu County or Yangle County.
And after this massacre, when they went south to pass through other counties in Youbeiping County, those people would not dare to stop them.
So, Tuobajin and Heximing divided their troops.
Tuobajin took half of his troops away and went south, leaving the remaining half to clean the battlefield and serve as a supporter from the rear. Originally, He Ximing should have stayed, but he was not at ease with Tuobajin and went south with him. The troops here were left to another general.
The news of Songzhou County being slaughtered spread, and everyone felt cold.
Songzhou County is the border between Youbeiping County and the Xianbei grassland, and has a small population. .gΟиЪ.ōΓＧ
Like Houcheng, it is now Wanhu County, and Songzhou has only a population of about 2,000 households. With the garrison, the number of people is about 130,000 to 140,000.so.
Most of these people now either died in this battle or were slaughtered.
Xianbei is so cruel!
“This group of beasts!” Lu Desheng cursed, “What is Deng Fangyi doing? As the governor of Youzhou, how can he turn a blind eye to the crisis of Songzhou County?”
