"It's true. The defense of the city depends on you. You have to be careful. Those scattered Yellow Turbans are very likely to come back when they are desperate. So don't be careless just because you are behind the scenes."
"General, I understand. Please rest assured, General You Zhonglang, that Wancheng will never fall into the hands of others again."
After hearing Li Shushi's assurance, Zhu Jun didn't say much, and commanded the soldiers to follow the footsteps of the Yellow Turban Army to the east. Sun Jian, as the pioneer officer, had already taken the lead and rushed out. For them, this was It will be the last place where I can obtain meritorious service in this Yellow Turban Rebellion. The heads of Zhao Hong, Han Zhong and others are still very valuable.
"Okay, now we are left with the prisoners of the Yellow Turban Army. But with the fighting power of these old and weak people, even if the Yellow Turban Army kills them, it will not have any effect. Speaking of the fate of these abandoned children, it is really How sad."
I remember that in the battle meeting the day before, Liu Bei, who still maintained a kind soul to a certain extent, couldn't bear it when faced with Zhu Jun's order to kill the fleeing Yellow Turban Army. He didn't want to see these ordinary people leave this place quietly like this. The world, because he also comes from a grassroots background, he also understands the feeling of being oppressed, so even if he hopes that he can climb higher and become one of the people who were once high in his eyes, deep down in his heart, there is still a feeling of oppression. A piece of grassroots sentiment.
To this end, he, who had never read much, racked his brains and cited examples of the fight between Liu Bang, the emperor of the Han Dynasty who had founded the Han Dynasty for more than 400 years, and Xiang Yu, hoping to persuade Zhu Jun to be merciful. Of course, Liu Bang, who claimed to be of the bloodline, Liu Bei knew more or less the deeds of his ancestors. After all, there were many related folklore, and he could remember a lot of them with a little attentiveness.
"That time is the same as this time. In the past Qin Dynasty and Xiang Dynasty, the world was in great chaos and the people had no definite master. Therefore, they recruited surrender and rewards to persuade others. Now the sea is unified, but the Yellow Turbans are rebelling. If they are allowed to surrender, there will be no way to persuade others to do good. .To allow thieves to profit and loot as much as they want, and then surrender after defeat: this is not a good policy to keep the bandits in mind."
It's a pity that Zhu Jun's rebuttal level is much higher than that of Liu Bei, and Liu Bei was confused in just a few words. Of course, even if Liu Bei is still very sober, I don't think he will offend Zhu Jun, who is not very familiar with him. Charity. Don't you have to protect yourself first before helping others? If you even pay for yourself, you can only be called a fool, especially when you save a guy who repays kindness with evil.
Liu Bei, what are you thinking about now as you are ambushing in the east? Do you still feel that the sword in your hand is extremely heavy?
Of course, Li Shushi knew that he was really thinking too much. If nothing else, at least the mess in Wancheng in front of him was enough to give him a headache. You must know that there is not only no grain in Wancheng, but also a lot of old and weak people. Prisoners need to be guarded.
"Haha, the book is true, what a great harvest. It is indeed the seat of the wealthy Nanyang County."
Just when Li Shushi was feeling extremely depressed and having a headache due to the lack of resources in the city, Cheng Lian's excited voice came to his ears.
"What's wrong, Shengran? Did you find some treasure?" Seeing Cheng Lian's happy expression, Li Shushi was somewhat curious.
"That's right. Based on our experience in Dong'e and the guidance of local people, we discovered the wealth and food hidden by many powerful families and businesses in Nanyang City. The amount of both treasure and food is not small, and
I’m afraid most of them are ownerless. In addition, we also found a lot of property left behind by the Yellow Turban Army because they left in a hurry.”
"Separate the property and food for a while, and find some reliable people to take care of it to prevent looting. At the same time, ask Liu Meng and Wu Luan to identify it, and keep the things that are more valuable in troubled times. Then let Cheng Yu take a look at the distribution.
The soldiers are more or less suitable. We will hand over the remaining part directly to the public as spoils of war. Anyway, Old Man Zhu has a bad temper, so giving it to him will be self-defeating."
Li Shushi lowered his head and thought for a while before giving instructions to Cheng Lian. But even so, he did not forget to add one last sentence: "In addition, let Cheng Yu and Feng Xian add up the total to see if there are any omissions in my decision."
What happened?"
Watching Cheng Lian leave, Li Shushi had to sigh with emotion. Those powerful people indeed have deep roots. Speaking of which, if they hadn't accumulated a lot of experience in digging up the secrets of the family wealth of such powerful people in Dong'a, Puyang, Chenliu and other places,
If so, I'm afraid he will still have a headache on how to solve the problem of feeding these prisoners in the city.
But now, after his round of sweeps, the foundations of many powerful companies in Nanyang may be ruined. Even if they can still maintain their former reputation, it may take several generations of management and accumulation to regain the previous power.
.
Nanyang, once the most fertile area in the Han Dynasty, will probably fall into a long period of recovery after the Yellow Turban Rebellion. Fortunately, the land here is fertile and it is also at the intersection of a major transportation road. As long as there is no major war,
It shouldn’t be difficult to regain the original popularity after more than ten years. But is there still such an opportunity here? Li Shushi smiled and said nothing.
Li Shushi vigorously cleaned up the seized wealth in Wancheng and supervised the prisoners to repair the city walls and improve the city defense. Although most of the prisoners were old, weak, women and children, in Li Shushi's view, he left them a way to survive and let them
Being able to eat without suffering mental and physical insults is considered quite merciful.
In fact, the prisoners saw Li Shushi's powerful sergeants and bright weapons. At the same time, as long as they worked hard, they would have food to eat. Although the portion was not sufficient to prevent the prisoners from having a full meal and causing trouble for themselves, but
For those prisoners who have been abandoned, this may be the best result they can think of.
Li Shushi even had the mood to keep the boys and girls in separate custody, preparing to ask Zhu Jun for help after the war so that they could become the reserve echelon of his army. Of course, it is not ruled out that those girls would become a solution for Li Shushi to solve the physiological problems of the army.
Li Shushi was happily carrying the wealth that probably belonged to them. Because Li Shushi had already revealed the news of the reward to everyone, and coupled with Li Shushi's generosity along the way, the credibility of what he said was naturally quite high.
. So the soldiers who were full of motivation seemed to feel that they had a little more strength.
"No wonder the famous generals recorded in the history books all had no money left at home and would distribute every reward to their subordinates. It turns out that generous rewards have such a huge impact on morale. It seems that I got it wrong."
"Actually, isn't the reason for your idea exactly the result of this move? Don't they get the money just for consumption? Even if they save it, isn't it for greater consumption? It's just that the time span is a bit It’s just a little too big.”
A petite figure wearing a cloak behind Li Shushi said softly. However, Li Shushi felt that the ordinary cloak could not cover her curvy figure, and with the soft and cute voice, she did not think it was so. Does it add to the mystery of Zeng Nai, my dear Su Xiaololi?
In response to Li Shushi's sudden and inexplicable stare at her, Su Xiaoluoli, who was full of naughty things, just tilted her head cutely, then stretched out her little hand from her cloak and gently rubbed Li Xiaozhengtai's head, acting like a big sister comforting her little one. The harmonious scene of the younger brother.
However, more than ten miles away, by the Baihe River, it was a different scene.
"Kill, if you catch the leader of the thief, Zhao Hong, you will win." "Han Zhong is a coward, don't hide if you can."
The Baihe River, which was not too deep, had now become a chasm that the Yellow Turban Army could not cross. In the front were Liu Bei and Li Zhuo leading troops to block it, and behind were the armies led by Zhu Jun. Even on both sides of the river bank were Xu Qiu, Liu Yan and others. The powerful coalition led by.
Countless bows and arrows were fired from the other side of the river, causing the Yellow Turban Army to pay a huge price for every step forward. The blood had completely dyed the originally white river water red, and the "road" piled up by countless corpses seemed to be like a heavy dam. Generally, the river is cut off at the middle. But no one is in the mood to care about what is being stepped on.
Move forward, move forward, move forward with all your strength. Compared with the enemy troops chasing behind and on both sides, the front with obviously too many long-range troops can cause a devastating blow to the enemy and allow you to escape as long as you can rush forward. So the Yellow Turban soldiers with a little bit of brains are trying their best to rush to the other side. As for those who are not smart, even if they follow the trend, they are enough to set off a huge torrent. And this huge torrent is now about to rush over and The White River is not too deep.
"Brother!" "Brother, if we don't withdraw, it will be too late."
Facing the torrent that was about to rush to the other side, even Zhang Fei and Zhang Butcher, who dared to laugh three times when facing any enemy, did not dare to face the surging crowd at this time for the safety of his elder brother.
Well, think about the ending of the monsters who tried to stop the Paladins from chasing their favorite goals in the XX International Convention and Exhibition Center on the Holy War Day, if they had not mastered the powerful passive skills called "Escape" and "Evasion" , then it’s not impossible for a blood-stained XX Day to happen.
Although Liu Bei didn't have much opportunity to participate in Jihad Day or Christmas shopping to experience the crazy impact (of course, Xuande Gong said that he was actually the protagonist of Jihad Day), but he also knew how to go all out and then fail. The principle of three-for-one. Although this sentence means that morale will decline with the passage of time, it also tells us that when facing the opponent's most powerful morale and the potential for survival, we should run away to avoid its edge. Bar.
"Commander, the enemy has moved in the intended direction, and we will be able to close the net soon."
"Damn Yellow Turban Army, let me see what tricks you can come up with this time."
A sneer flashed at the corner of Zhu Jun's mouth. Looking from a distance, it seemed as if those teeth were emitting a cold temperature.
p.s. Before I knew it, this book already has 500,000 words. Although this number of words is nothing at the starting point, for us, it is already the longest story we have written since childhood. I am a little proud of myself. Let's celebrate.
I couldn't understand Tang Xianzu's crying for the people in the play before. Now that I have devoted myself to it, I realize that sometimes you will really be happy for the joy of the people in your play and depressed by the depression of the people in the play. .It feels very strange, really strange. Maybe this is also because I regard him as narrating my own story.
Still the same sentence. Although this book is a blockbuster book, we will continue to work hard. I also hope that everyone can continue to support us. Thank you everyone~
