When Li Yan led his personal guards to the edge of Lushui.

The ships of the Nanzhao Navy had already stopped on the Lu River, waiting for Li Yan to send someone to pick them up.

As Li Yan arrived.

After receiving the news, the commander of the Second Tiger Army Regiment, who was defending Lushui, rushed over immediately, "Your Highness, we have observed the warships in Nanzhao, but we have not seen many soldiers and horses at present. However, we cannot estimate the warships within the warships for the time being. However, even if the people of Nanzhao want to set up an ambush in the warships, there will not be too many soldiers and horses."

Li Yan looked at the warships of all sizes above the Lu River and was still quite jealous.

There are not many warships in Xichuan, and there are only some small pitiful little guys.

However, Nanzhao owns a large number of warships.

Even though Li Yan had destroyed many warships in Nanzhao, the number of warships in Nanzhao Navy still made Li Yan envious.

The Nanzhao warship was crowded with people, only some people in tattered clothes were seen, but no Nanzhao soldiers were seen.

And if you can tell what you mean, Li Yan couldn't see what was happening.

"Please be wary. After Zuo Yan arranges people to come, you will defend yourself and prohibit any Nanzhao people from landing. Moreover, all the people will get off the boat in groups of every hundred people, check inside and out, and interrogate them to prevent fraud." Li Yan was still very careful in doing things.

Even if I first glance at the unarmed people on the Nanzhao warships, who can be sure that there are no Nanzhao people in them?

Nanzhao was very active in doing things this time.

Without notifying Li Yan, the people were sent back.

This also made Li Yan not make much preparations.

There are crowds of people on the warships and there are many people, and it is not possible to estimate the specific number of people for the time being.

Points can only be made when they are allowed to get ashore.

On board.

The people standing on the deck looked at the opposite shore with blurred eyes.

Many people have cried loudly.

There were even many people kneeling on the deck, clattering their heads towards Tang Guo, and making the deck sound.

"I'm back, damn, you're still alive."

"Dad, my daughter is back, my daughter is back."

"Mom, my son is back, I miss you."

"His father, I'm back, but I don't have the shame to see you."

“…”

On the boat, the people looked at the other side with tears in their eyes, and their hearts were filled with sadness and pain.

Women, whose bodies are defiled, account for the vast majority, and some women even have strong belly highlights. You can tell at a glance that they are pregnant.

Women who were captured in Nanzhao will inevitably be defiled by the people of Nanzhao unless they are more powerful or have skills.

Naturally, because this time Li Yan asked Nanzhao to send back the Xichuan people who had taken to Nanzhao, they would also be among them.

And at this time.

There is hope on the faces of these women, but also pain, and more of a sense of confusion.

They don’t know what the future will be, nor do they even know if their families can still accept them once they return to their hometown.

After all, they still have the seeds of Nanzhao people in their stomachs.

As for men.

As Li Yan saw on the surface, at least half were intact. It was estimated that about 60% of the people seemed to be harmless.

And what remains are either missing arms or missing legs.

And Li Yan is even more certain.

Those who appear to be intact and unscathed on the surface must also be returned with disabilities.

I guess the tongue is 100% gone.

At least.

After Li Yan captured Huichuan, among the thousands of people in Xichuan that he saw, there were few men and men who were intact.

According to the way the Nanzhao people treated the Tang people, either cutting their hands and feet or cutting their tongues.

Not only the Tang people, but also the Tubo people captured by Nanzhao, could not escape this fate.

Li Yan saw all the status on the ship.

Li Yan looked at the ship above Lushui and the people on the ship. His eyes narrowed into a line, but the flesh on his face was tense.

Shi Kuan, who was standing next to Li Yan, saw the expression on Li Yan's face and knew how unhappy Li Yan was at this moment.

No, it shouldn't be unhappiness, it should be anger.

Yes.

Li Yan was very angry at this moment, so angry that his heart could hardly be suppressed.

Especially when Li Yan saw many disabled people and those women with belly buttons, the anger in Li Yan's chest began to be unable to suppress it.

Li Yan's face was tense and his fists were clenched.

Shi Kuan, who was standing beside him, gently approached Li Yan and comforted him in a low voice: "Your Highness, let's report this anger after our Xichuan people return to their hometown. Anyway, we have not agreed to Nanzhao's conditions. At that time, your highness will be completely vented by the hatred in your heart."

"The people of Nanzhao are hateful! But you are right. You should take your anger slowly after a few days." After hearing Shi Kuan's consolation, Li Yan immediately relaxed his clenched fists.

You shouldn't be angry at this time, but you should be happy.

The people were sent back, and Li Yan was happy, happy for the liberated people.

There are still many things to do later. This is not the time to get angry, nor is it the moment to vent the fire.

Half an hour later.

When Zuo Yan led a large number of officials and officers to the edge of Lushui, the work of welcoming the people began.

Allowing the soldiers of the Second Tiger Army Regiment to stare at the ships near the shore, every citizen who gets off the boat is the object of the soldiers' eyes.

The officials sent by Zuo Yan first began to connect with the people of Nanzhao, and then instructed the servants to begin to identify all the people who had gotten off the ship.

After each group of 100 people got off the ship, they searched it with the officers to see if there were any weapons carrying them.

The officers' techniques are also very light, which makes the people not feel a threat.

These people were treated inhumanely in Nanzhao. Even if the servants treat them, they dare not resist at all.

Be obedient.

This is the state of the people.

On the other hand, Li Yan was looking at Zheng You standing in front of him.

"Your Highness Ying, in accordance with your instructions, I, Nanzhao, have sent back 34,000 people of Xichuan. Look, this is my Nanzhao's letter of peace. I don't know if your highness can sign it." Zheng You took the letter of Nanzhao and handed it to Li Yan.

Li Yan didn't even look at him, and then looked at Zheng You coldly, then turned to look at Lushui, "After all the people's investigation, I will read your Nanzhao's letter of peace. The people have not clearly identified it. I will not sign any letter of peace."

Signing the letter of peace.

Li Yan would not sign this thing at all.

If Li Yan really signs, even these people may not forgive him.

Besides.

Li Yan didn't plan to sign a letter of peace from the bottom of his heart.

If this proposal is signed with the letter of peace, Li Yan would have no excuse to attack the Nanzhao Kingdom again.

In order to solve the problem in the southwest of the Tang Kingdom, the only way is to pacify the Nanzhao Kingdom and prevent the Nanzhao Kingdom from reviving in the future. At that time, the southwest of the Tang Kingdom will be unstable.

Furthermore.

The revenge of the people of Xichuan is to be repaid.

When Zheng You heard Li Yan's words, he had to put away the letter of peace talks.

Li Yan said, he understands.

But he couldn't see Li Yan's thoughts and could not guess them thoroughly.

Depending on the current situation and past transactions between countries, as long as they have been said or what is already underway, countries generally abide by it.

Even if you only follow it for a short period of time, you will generally follow it.

Zheng You was also praying in his heart, praying that the matter would be over quickly and that he could return to Nanzhao, and that he would see his wife, children, and children.

Before Zheng You brought tens of thousands of people back to Xichuan this time, the king of Nanzhao asked him to complete the bookmark of the peace country, so that he could see his wife, children, and children.

Zheng You looked at the slow investigation and looked up at the sun above his head, hoping that the progress would be faster.

But.

The work of identifying the people cannot be completed in a short while.
