Weiguo was not a big country, so it was handled quickly. Half a month later, Li Si left Weiguo with more than 200 people, most of whom had been determined to be either human traffickers or related to human traffickers.
After arriving in Zhao State, Li Si will arrange for personnel to interrogate him again to ensure that there is no accidental killing.
Then came the trip to Wei and Qi.
After having the seal and ribbon, no one can stop the two countries, and the road is smooth wherever they go.
All countries have no favorable impressions of human traffickers. If caught, they will be put to death at worst, or demoted to slavery at worst.
The King of Wei also specially sent troops to assist. Of course, he might also be on guard.
Things went smoothly. At the end of May, Li Si finished his trip to Wei Qi and came to the shore of Onezawa.
"There is only one last place left." Li Si looked at the endless Ohnozawa in front of him and said slowly.
Onezawa is more than three hundred miles long from north to south and hundreds of miles wide from east to west. It is a famous swamp in the Central Plains and one of the nine ancient swamps in China. It should have been a fertile soil for raising a family, but because it is located in the Three Kingdoms, it has become a gathering place for bandits.
land, seriously threatening the lives and property safety of surrounding people.
"Onozawa has hundreds of miles of water, complex terrain, and reeds everywhere. It may be difficult for more than a thousand of us to go in and arrest people..." Yan Xiong warned in a low voice, fearing that Li Si would be more impulsive than him because of his youth.
"Haha." A smile appeared on Li Si's face. It was not only difficult to arrest people in Ohnozawa, but to be precise, it was impossible at all.
Unless the navy army is brought in, in this kind of terrain, even the military soul army will not be of much use.
No matter how powerful Zhao Feiqi is, he can't fly on the water, and he will fall down like a lump when he enters the water.
But at this point, it was impossible for Li Si to give up no matter what.
The water thieves can be eradicated later, but the human traffickers must be killed now, no matter where they are spared.
"Excuse me, General. Give this list to the leader of the Onozawa Water Bandits and tell him to either send these thirty-three people out or wait for the conquest of the three kingdoms of Zhao, Wei, and Qi." Li Si took out a stack of paper and handed it to Yan Xiong.
Based on the intelligence collected during this period, Li Si determined that the water thieves in Onozawa were involved in human trafficking. Some even blatantly robbed women on the shore and then sold them to others.
In addition to personal information, there is also a simple portrait.
After all, these days many people are called Goudan, Black Shoulder, Xiaozhi, etc. If there is no simple portrait, it is easy to arrest the wrong person.
Yanxiong took the list and looked at it, and found that he only knew a small character... He had also tried hard to read in the past two years, but the progress was not obvious... But at least he could write his own name, so he
This old man was excited for a long time.
Yanxiong stuffed the list into his arms and flew towards the center of Onozawa.
Half an hour later, two small boats rowed out from the center of Onozawa. A mountain-like figure stood on the bow of the boat, and behind them were the water bandits who sent the traffickers out.
"Special envoy, human traffickers are unfaithful to nature and are not tolerated by the world. We are forced to become bandits because of the stupidity of the world and the lack of livelihood for the people, but we also know the etiquette, justice and shame. We have arrested the human traffickers on the list and sent them to the special envoy. If the special envoy knows anything else
People are abducting and trafficking people. Even if you write a letter, I will clean up the house.”…
When Yan Xiong jumped off the boat, a strong man stood out from another boat and said with clasped fists.
It seems that he should be the leader of the Onosawa Water Bandits.
A faint smile appeared on Li Si's face. Although he had already guessed that the Onozawa water bandits would not offend Zhao, Wei and Qi for more than thirty people, he was still relieved to see that things went so smoothly.
Whether the other party is sincere or superficially agreeable, it doesn't matter. At least let him successfully arrest the trafficker.
As for how to suppress the bandits in the future, that is a matter for the future.
If the entire territory of Onozawa is brought under one country in the future, it will not be difficult. On the contrary, if it cannot be brought under one country, no matter how hard we try to suppress the bandits, it will be impossible to wipe them all out.
"Are you the leader of the Onozawa water bandits?" Li Si asked.
"Not bad." The strong man nodded.
"What do you call it?" Li Si asked.
"Bad name Ge." said the strong man.
"Thank you very much, Chief Ge, for your help. Based on what happened today, if Chief Ge goes ashore to surrender to Zhao in the future, I, Li Si, will protect the leader's life." Li Si said, cupping his fists.
"Is this what the special envoy said seriously?" Ge asked instead of refusing.
The strength of the Zhao State can best be felt by the water bandits in Onozawa.
A few years ago, there were more than a dozen groups of water bandits, large and small, gathered in Ohnozawa, with a combined number of ten to twenty thousand. Now there are only three groups of water bandits headed by Ge, with a combined number of less than three thousand.
Where did the few people go?
They all went to Zhao State!
For the vast majority of people, as long as they have enough food and clothing, or even if they don't have enough food and clothing, they can survive without becoming bandits.
I had no choice at the beginning, but now I have the choice to naturally become a son of a good family.
Moreover, Zhao Guo will not refuse without household registration. As long as he is not the kind of person who does all kinds of evil and makes others look disgusted when mentioning his name, Zhao Guo will not pursue the past. After registration, he will be sent to Hetao to arrange household registration, arrange land, and distribute farm tools and equipment.
Farm cattle.
These water bandits are all strong men, so they don’t have to worry about dying on the road.
Therefore, most of the water bandits gradually became good friends one after another.
The rest either don't believe in Zhao Guo, or they are used to being bandits and are unwilling to live a good life farming. Although they are a minority, there are some.
As for Ge, he was originally the second largest water bandit in Onezawa. Later, the largest water bandit fell ill and died, and all the bandits under his command also dispersed like birds and beasts. Some went to Zhao State, and some sought refuge with him.
He naturally became the number one water bandit.
Others dared to vote for Zhao, but he did not dare to vote.
On the one hand, he does not believe in Zhao Guo.
He has experienced how dark the world has been in the past few years. In his opinion, what Zhao Guo promoted cannot be true. Even if it is true, it is just a short-term deception.
It is not that countries in the past have not enacted good policies, but they lasted for several years or several months. They were either abolished midway, or gradually began to rot from the inside out, and in the end they were not as good as before.
And he is different from those ordinary bandits. He is a bandit leader. Zhao State can tolerate those ordinary bandits, but it may not be able to tolerate him, the bandit leader.
Another point is... he is used to being free on his own in Onezawa and does not want to be bound by the Zhao State. Although Onezawa is poor, he still has more than 2,000 subordinates, so he is quite cool as a bandit leader.
But Chinese people pursue stability at their core. Just like when a person becomes prosperous, he always wants to buy land, add a house, and settle down his family.
Although Ge was sitting on hundreds of miles of water, his heart was always hanging in the air and could not fall down. He knew that the profession of banditry could not last a lifetime, and he did not want his children to become bandits in the future.
If Zhao Guo could provide certain conditions, he would not mind taking all the water bandits to defect to Zhao Guo.
