Chapter 1736 Turning the Flower Country Into Ruins
If Zhong Xiao hadn't been sure that the person in front of him was Wang Dao, he would have even thought that he was pretending to be someone else.
He thought he knew the purpose of going to the Flower Country this time. He was going to destroy the country, but destroying the country and killing were two different concepts!
Zhong Xiao was very sure that he could kill any soldier, any member of the royal family, or even the family members of the officials in the Flower Kingdom without any problem.
But to massacre the people and kill everyone in the Flower Country is too much!
If you really want to do this, how is it different from a demon?
If it were anyone else, Zhong Xiao would probably attack the person who said this directly now.
But this man is king! The great saint of the north! Even the savior of Shifang Continent! How could he say such a thing?
With a glimmer of hope, Zhong Xiao asked cautiously, "Wang Zhangzong, did the general hear correctly? Are you talking about wiping out all the troops in the Flower Kingdom?"
Wang Dao smiled. Of course he knew what Zhong Xiao meant, but it was a pity to disappoint this powerful and powerful general.
"General Zhong, let me ask you a question. In a nationwide war, do you want to wipe out all the resistance of the other party?" Wang Dao decided to be tactful and not scare the other party.
Zhong Xiao nodded naturally and said, "Of course, this is necessary."
"What about the situation in the Flower Country? Do you think we should kill all the people?" Wang Dao asked rhetorically.
Zhong Xiao's face stiffened and he looked a little unnatural.
Zhong Xiao already knew about the Protection of Luck, and he also knew that the Protection of Luck in Flower Country represented the resistance of the whole people. However, he did not think that far-reaching at the beginning. The inertia of years of fighting allowed him to combine the people and the enemy. To distinguish, it never occurred to me that the common people were also part of the resistance force.
What's more, Xu Saiguo has only been fighting monsters for so many years and rarely takes action against his compatriots. In his eyes, the people are the people and the enemies are the enemies. These are two kinds of people.
But Wang Dao's inquiry just now shattered his concept.
yes! This time the enemy is not only the military power of Flower Country, but everyone in Flower Country!
Just at the thought of taking action against the common people, Zhong Xiao, the iron-blooded warrior, showed a rare look of intolerance on his face.
"Just...is there no other way?" Zhong Xiao struggled and asked.
Wang Dao smiled and said, "General Zhong, let me figure out the method, okay? You just need to tell me whether you are sure to kill everyone in the Flower Kingdom."
Everyone in Zhong Xiao was dumbfounded. What was this? We’ve already killed everyone in Flower Country, is there any need to think of any other way?
But thinking about how magical the king's way has always been, maybe there is some way that a rough guy like me can think of in this life.
Thinking of this, Zhong Xiao's eyes showed a glimmer of hope, and he immediately put aside his womanly kindness and began to ponder with firm eyes.
Upon seeing this, Wang Dao nodded with satisfaction. He now looked like a first-rate general, decisive in killing, clear in his division of labor, and self-aware.
It seems that Zhong Xiao is still worth cultivating.
This is actually a test of Wang Dao. The test was mainly because he saw Zhong Xiao's concern for the people and knew that Zhong Xiao, a man of iron and blood on the battlefield, had kindness in his heart and was not completely corroded by the blood of the battlefield. Only then did Wang Dao With a test in mind.
Xu Zisheng originally said that he wanted to train Zhong Xiao, but Wang Dao didn't pay much attention to it. He just thought that if there was a chance, he would give him some pointers on his martial arts.
As for bringing back Xundao Sect and obeying his subordinates, Wang Dao never thought about it. Instead, he hoped that Zhong Xiao could train Lian Ting and Wang Lian, so he let them study under Zhong Xiao.
Because the people of Xundao Sect, first of all, have a bottom line.
Wangdao is not the Holy Mother, and Xundao Sect is not the Holy Mother, but not being the Holy Mother does not mean a completely selfish, self-sacrificing martyr. The Kingly Way is very shameless.
But on the premise of living a good life, help others and love others. Wang Dao does not care about this and supports it very much.
A person who doesn't even have good thoughts in his heart, how dare he use the royal way?
There is a bottom line for selfishness. If you exceed this bottom line, you are a pure villain and a villain. Such people can only be used, but they can never be friends, let alone be recruited.
But in the same way, people whose judgment is affected by good thoughts and become pure Virgin Heart, or even Virgin Bitch, are not needed in the royal way.
Therefore, Wang Dao tested Zhong Xiao after he had the bottom line of kindness. He saw that Zhong Xiao did not affect his judgment because of his kindness, and he did not accuse himself of anything. This is enough to show that Zhong Xiao can be cultivated. of.
Maybe the Xundao Sect can have one more subordinate like a warrior.
After a while, Zhong Xiao raised his head and said, "Wang Zhangzong, my previous judgment was insufficient and I did not take into account all the citizens of the Flower Kingdom. Therefore, I may not have been fully prepared and my conception was not rigorous. I can only make a preliminary statement now." How about you listen to my plan first?"
Wang Dao nodded confidently and said, "Go ahead."
"First of all, we only have three million people in this expedition. There is absolutely no problem in terms of combat power. In other words, if we lose, we will definitely not lose. The Flower Country will be destroyed."
"But if we are to ensure that all the citizens are killed, the difficulty will be raised several levels. The general does not know the specific number of people in the Flower Country, but it must be hundreds of millions. He wants to use these three million to kill With hundreds of millions of people, it’s too difficult.”
Wang Dao nodded, that's for sure. This is not the era of hot weapons, and Xu Saiguo's warriors are not that high. Naturally, it is impossible to destroy the world. It needs to be cut out with one knife, even if the attack range is larger. , if you want to kill hundreds of millions of people, you can't do it in a short time.
"Tell me a way." Wang Dao said straightforwardly.
Zhong Xiao took a deep look at Wang Dao, and the light of hope in his eyes grew stronger and stronger. He felt that Wang Dao must have other ideas, otherwise if he simply slaughtered the people of the Flower Kingdom, they would not be needed at all. The current disciples are all existences that destroy the heaven and the earth. Just let them come up, there is no need for them to bother at all.
Thinking of this, Zhong Xiao no longer hesitated and said, "The first thing to solve is the problem of people fleeing. If we want to completely massacre all citizens, we must make it impossible for them to escape and hide. Then the prerequisite is to change terrain!"
Wang Dao's eyes lit up. He had never considered this before and asked, "How to change it?"
"I am not very familiar with the terrain of Flower Country. The specific plan needs to be reported in detail later. I can only briefly talk about it now. First of all, there must be no mountains and forests in Flower Country. Otherwise, we will hide in the forest and we will not be able to leave in a year or two." Want to kill everyone.”
"Secondly, we need to block all escape routes, completely block the borders of the Flower Country, and completely imprison them within the borders of the Flower Country. But this will involve too many troops. We only have three million. The number is There are too few, so the terrain also needs to be changed to make up for the lack of troops.”
"The last thing is the buildings. If we want to quickly deal with the citizens in the city, we can't let the soldiers search each house one by one. It's a waste of time, and it's easy to be ambushed, so we need to change the topography of the city."
"These three changes in terrain require the efforts of Wang Zhangzong to turn the Flower Country into a plain, turn the Flower Country into mountains surrounded by mountains, and turn the Flower Country into ruins!"
