Among the hundreds of people Wang Yong brought with him, Wang Yong was not the only one who married a wife, but the only one who ran away from his wife was Wang Yong.
I don’t know whether I should say he was unlucky and didn’t meet the right person, or whether I should say he was unlucky and didn’t meet the right person.
There are not a few people who have wives, families, and children; on the contrary, they account for the majority of the people; after all, the prerequisite for them to leave Jixiang House is that they have grown up and can support themselves, which means
I hope I can get a wife.
Not to mention that these men are all poor. It is not easy for men to live in this era, but it is even harder for women. As long as they can be relied on to ensure that they will not starve to death, they will not worry about not getting a wife.
It is precisely because of poverty that these men will cherish their wives and children even more. Although this may sound offensive, it is the fact. After all, it is not easy to marry someone. Moreover, people in this era value blood and heirs.
.
No, the guards use the men's wives and children as threats. It can be said that one threat leads to the other.
You yelled at me one sentence at a time, and the yelling got louder and louder. It was so noisy that you couldn't even hear what everyone was yelling about.
Yuchi showed impatience on his face, and a shadowless soldier saw this and shouted: "Shut up, everyone."
The men dared to roar just now because they were anxious. As they roared, they forgot about their current situation. Being shouted at by the soldiers was enough to bring them back, and they hurriedly lowered their heads and huddled together in fear.
Yuchi stepped forward and came to Wang Yong, "They said you were just captured?"
Although Wang Yong is ordinary, he is not stupid. He knows that this is the only chance for their group to survive, so he hurriedly replied: "To the general, if you don't believe me, you can ask other miners, they can all testify to the time of our arrival.
not long."
I also remembered what the general said just now about 'someone snitching', "We used to be gangsters, but we never did anything harmful to nature. General, can you ask if we people have ever oppressed the miners?"
This is not difficult to ask. The miners still have a high degree of trust in the soldiers who rescued them. When the Shadowless Army asked for a while, they not only asked about the true situation of Wang Yong and others, but also asked
A lot of other stuff came out.
A soldier took Yuchi aside to talk.
"General, many of these miners can barely be considered as their accomplices."
The reason why I use the word "forced" is that they were originally the same as the other miners who were captured, but after being captured, they became the minions of those people.
The price is very low, sometimes it's just half a steamed bun, sometimes it's a brown rice dumpling or a wild vegetable dumpling.
When the soldier said this to Yuchi, his tone was calm and there was no ambiguity. When Qibaoer arrived, Yuchi reported the matter to her and also had no contempt for the miners who had done such a thing.
This is not because they are cold-blooded and disregard people's lives. On the contrary, they all know that those people are just trying to survive.
If they were also one of the miners, they would also be resentful and resentful, but from their perspective, they would blame not these people themselves, but the people who caused this situation.
Yuchi placed a stack of account books in front of Qi Bao'er, "Your Majesty, these are the mine's accounts for the past six months."
Qi Bao'er didn't take a closer look, he just turned to the end to see the total.
When she saw the huge amount on it, her eyes sharpened; then Yuchi handed over another booklet still smelling of ink. She was tired of reading.
"This is the number of miners who have died since the mines here were reopened."
The book is about as thick as half a year's accounts, and it is densely packed with many ordinary and even funny names.
Liu Chang, Fan Jian, Du Qiyan, Du Ziteng...
"More than a hundred people..." Qi Bao'er's voice was so soft that it seemed to be blown away by the wind.
Yuchi pursed his lips and nodded, then shook his head, "These are all people whose names can be found out. Many of the people who were killed did not even know their names."
In private iron mines, the miners are all people they picked up from who knows where. How can they possibly record their names even after they die?
To be able to find out the names of these hundreds of people, it is lucky that some of the surviving miners still remember them.
Qi Baoer was silent and sighed, "Go and notify the Zhongcheng magistrate and ask him to bring people to settle those people properly."
"yes."
After Yuchi left, Erniu, who had come with Qi Baoer, came over.
Maybe it's because of the many years of fighting at the border. There was too much blood, and people's sympathy naturally became less. Although the miners sounded pitiful, they were just a little pitiful.
What he is more worried about is...
As if he was talking to himself, he muttered: "With so much iron, how many weapons can be made from this?"
Qi Baoer glanced at him with an unclear look, but she didn't expect that the stupid and stupid Uncle Erniu had changed after not seeing him for so many years.
Er Niu was made to feel as if his clothes were no longer on him, and his face twitched with embarrassment.
Qi Bao'er didn't embarrass him, and responded according to his words: "The whole Qi family's soldiers have one hand, and some heavy siege weapons are enough."
With the answer, Erniu immediately went down the slope, came closer and whispered: "Aunt Bao, did you find the weapon they made?"
At that time, he and Dayou were kicked out by the general, but they didn't go far, and the general didn't keep his voice down when he spoke in the tent. They heard the general yell about weapons.
This time he was lucky enough to follow Aunt Bao out, and saw that Dayou was also assigned a task by the general. He left the camp faster than Aunt Bao and him, and he brought with him all the strong and burly soldiers in the army.
Soldiers in the army do not necessarily have to be strong warriors on the battlefield because they are tall, but those who are tall and strong will definitely be strong.
Dayou left with hundreds of powerful soldiers. Then he thought of the general's shouting about a weapon, and now he saw that the imperial court's iron mines were being opened privately...
Da You said that he occasionally has a brain.
Qi Baoer raised his feet and left without answering him.
But at this time, no answer was already an answer.
Dayou immediately put on a smile that was even stupider than that of Erwazi who was stupid due to high fever when he was a child in the village.
The Ga people in the Shadowless Army are not all brainless, there are still a few people left who look like they are the leaders here.
At this moment, they were all detained in the brightest and best-built brick house in the 'village'.
Do you think there is any preferential treatment for them?
NO, at this moment they wish they could just be killed by a knife like the other guards.
These people are guards placed here to guard the miners. Perhaps their superiors will not be easily discovered here, or they feel that even if they are caught, there is no place worthy of keeping their secrets. Therefore, they do not have the classic method of hiding poison in their teeth.
set.
But it saves the Wuying Army trouble, and they don't have to worry about interrogating them because of a momentary oversight and all of them being questioned before they even start questioning.
Yuchi is an expert in interrogation. He can turn anything into an interrogation tool, but he is also a completely indifferent person.
That is, the people he interrogated generally no longer looked like human beings after the outcome of the trial.
In less than half a day, one confession after another was placed in front of Qi Bao'er.
