So Wang Shun was unwilling to surrender and discredit his father after all, so he begged for his death.
"Kill me. I can’t surrender. Keep me. I will find a way to escape and then bring my troops back!"
He threatened Xu Tong.
Xu tong sneer at.
"it’s not me who will kill you, and I don’t have the strength and qualification to judge you. You will get the fairest trial."
"A fair trial?"
Wang Shun was very surprised. "I was defeated by you. No matter what method, I recognized that you wanted to kill me. I didn’t complain, but what are you going to do? Judge me? I am loyal to the monarch and the country, but I will never survive!
I will die, I will live up to the king and my parents in heaven and earth. What have I done that needs your judgment? Even if I’m wrong, it’s up to Emperor Dasong to judge, not you. Kill me quickly! "
Xu Tong shook his head.
For more than a year, Xu Tong not only trained soldiers, but also participated in the refresher courses organized by senior instructors from both China and the United States, and conducted intensive theoretical study.
Not only did he study textbooks, but he also read through the first volume of Hongwu Political Theory and the second volume just released to the public in his spare time to learn and understand Su Yonglin’s theory in a deeper level.
He has a new view on some problems that he didn’t think too much or felt vague in the past.
Through study, he felt that his vision of seeing problems and seeing the world was suddenly broadened.
In the past, his foundation for learning was [learning? Learn nothing! 】 It is enough to be able to fight and win the battle.
However, after in-depth guidance and explanation from the instructors in Zhongdu, he suddenly realized that he had made great mistakes in the past.
His attitude in the past was criticized by the instructor.
At first, he was very angry, but the instructor argued with him and refuted his blushing and speechless.
So he admitted that there was something wrong with him.
Now he deeply feels that what he has learned is very meaningful.
"The whole Song system is full of evil, exploitation and oppression. You are a vested interest and have not reflected on this problem. It is to obey your identity and maintain this evil system!
You are not wrong because you never feel that you have suppressed the people who were born and struggled, and this is your biggest mistake and the reason why you and you have died from the people! "
Wang Shun opened his mouth and didn’t know what to say.
Looking at the puzzled Wang Shun Xu Tong sighed.
"It’s time for you to learn our knowledge. Don’t always live so shamefully. It always feels like all the people are born to owe you this idea.
Who says ordinary people are born to owe you? Born to be a cow and a horse for you? With what? It’s really … Forget it. I’m not an instructor. There’s no need to entangle this place. "
It doesn’t make sense for Xu Tong whether these people surrender or not.
Because they will be tried after all, and the trial results will certainly not change. They have committed crimes and have to be sentenced to exile in Zhao Shen, let alone in the peasant army.
Wang Shun will not die because he refuses to surrender.
Song Chen will not live because of voluntary surrender
Their life and death are left to the public trial meeting to decide, and to the people who are born and struggle to decide.
Chapter 135 He is not underestimating his enemy enough
Xu Tong didn’t stop after Ezhou was breached.
He hasn’t finished yet
After the trial, he learned that there are still some troops stationed in other places in Song Jun, such as Qingshan, Bailuji, Fankou and Wuchang, and there are still 16 thousand Ezhou army soldiers.
Wang Shun seems to have put the defense focus on the east. He didn’t expect the peasant army to cross the mountains and go out of Jiangxia Mountain to attack Ezhou Camp directly, so he sent it.
He sent the whole left-behind army, so did the logistics of Ezhou Army.
What’s more, the important transportation channels and retreat channels of Xiangyang Army were also cut off.
After Xu Tong won the victory, he seized a lot of grain, grass and materials, but when he opened several armories in Ezhou, he found that there were not many ordnance left in these armories, even if there were, it was always bad.
It seems that Liang is really sold to the peasant army by them.
Even if Xu Tong didn’t sneak attack Ezhou Army, it wouldn’t last long if he directly confronted the main force of peasant army.
However, according to this, the Jiujiang army also has arms trade with the peasant army, so won’t the Jiujiang army last long?
Xu Tong looked at several arsenals and laughed.
On March 16th, Xu Tong set out again after only one night’s rest.
He left 1,000 troops stationed in Ezhou, and the troops were divided into two roads, one road and two thousand men. Jiang Gao, the deputy commander, led two thousand men to attack Hanyang all the way through the chaotic water. He personally led them to Castle Peak and attacked Castle Peak and Song Jun.
He won’t be afraid to divide his troops because of the small number of his own troops, because he is sure that there will be no established Song Jun stationed in other cities except Ezhou and Xiangyang.
It is impossible for Song Jun to arrange tens of millions of troops to defend every ideal city. It is impossible to arrange enough deterrent regular troops. The army is too big for the Southern Song Dynasty government to afford.
It’s enough to shock the civilians that they can arrange some people in the local area.
But it is obviously not enough to deal with the peasant army.
