The first choice, ending the war included meeting Shuyu with my men at the back entrance of the kingdom, and kill them. This will lower the morale of other soldiers and they will leave Tong'an, I thought this would also be termed as a sacrifice but then I realized the deaths of the people has to be through my own hands - or my own mouth if I was to burn them to ashes.
I was so confused by everything, hence I relied on Lee for support since he understood my situation. He was against my decision of burning the men claiming they were innocent and if I were to burn someone they it should by Yushu. "Think about this Mingzhu, those men out there have families, they have kids, and wives waiting for them back at home. Yushu puts them to this and then he ran like a coward. Now this general Tao may think he's doing the right thing, and he is probably power hungry like how Yushu was. But, don't burn them... there must be another way" he said.
