"Gentlemen, you must understand that before any battle commences, the actual objective of our side must be clarified."
"And our main objective this time is only one."
"That is to devour the fifty thousand elite troops and the Prince inside Yong Yue Prefecture. The rest do not matter; as long as they are gone, Daqing will lose its hold on the border and be forced to abandon the Three Prefectures."
"Vice General Chen, I'm right, aren't I?"
Chen Sansi agreed, "What General Fang has said matches exactly with what I had in mind."
Waging war is not about slaughter but about achieving strategic objectives.
Whether to slaughter or to be humane must be decided based on the current situation, adopting whichever strategy will lead to victory.
"Even General Fang thinks it's feasible?"
Meng Quji began to hesitate.
Clearly, in the military, experience is the real voice of authority.
He pondered, "But no matter what, allowing so many surrendered soldiers to return is still a huge loss."
