Wu Niankang still couldn't help it, and walked over with a resentful look on his face, like a wronged kitten, squatting next to Zhao Kang.
Seeing that Zhao Kang didn't pay attention to what she meant, she asked again, "Who is she?"
"Xu Jing."
Zhao Kang smiled, and Wu Niankang asked doubtfully, "Do you know each other?"
It shouldn't be. Zhao Kang asked people for their names before.
Zhao Kang shook his head and said, "She is very similar to the same person, and so are you."
But it’s not. ??
After muttering secretly in his heart, Zhao Kang stood up and said, "I'm going to check on those officers and soldiers. It's getting dark and we have to travel tomorrow. You should rest early."
Watching him leave, Wu Niankang, who had a lot to say but didn't know where to start, felt a little depressed.
…
"Hero, you! Please let us go!"
"Yes, yes, heroes, we were wrong, we never dare to do it again!"
"Show your noble hand and spare our lives!"
As soon as they saw Zhao Kang, the officers and soldiers of the Economic Affairs Department hurriedly called out. Compared with the show of force during the day, they looked a little miserable at this moment.
Even the armor was taken away and pierced on the bodyguards of Zhou Hu and others.
Now that he was wearing nothing but pants, he finally understood that he had offended someone he couldn't afford to offend.
"I say something, and you answer something." Zhao Kang said softly.
"Understood! Understood! We will answer whatever you ask!"
A soldier hurriedly showed his obedience, but Zhao Kang's seven orifices bled with a slap and he died on the spot.
"Too much nonsense."
Zhao Kang said something, grabbed the corpse by the neck and threw it out. Many people were frightened and pissed on the spot.
"Where is the Economic and Strategy Department?" Zhao Kang asked.
"In the Eastern Dragon City!" a soldier shouted at the top of his lungs, fearing that he would be photographed by Zhao Kang if he answered late.
die.
"Eastern Dragon City, isn't that the imperial capital of the Xia Kingdom?"
The soldiers hurriedly said, "Sir, that was almost a hundred years ago in the Xia Kingdom! Now the Eastern Dragon City is the Economic and Strategy Department, with 60,000 troops stationed in it!"
"In addition, each of the ten major criminal cities has 20,000 troops stationed in it, all of which are under the jurisdiction of the Economic and Strategy Department. We are all garrison troops in the second criminal city, selected from among the criminal citizens by the Economic and Strategic Department!"
"Not bad."
Zhao Kang nodded with satisfaction and asked, "Have you ever heard of Zhang Mingyuan?"
After a moment of confusion, a soldier's eyes hurriedly shouted as if he had remembered something, "I know, I know, Zhang Mingyuan was the first military envoy, and all subsequent military envoys were inherited by his descendants..."
After an interrogation that was not a torture, Zhao Kang learned everything he wanted to know.
When Yang Qian and Wu Xiong rebelled against the Qian Kingdom, in addition to the original Qian army, they also attracted tens of thousands of people from the Eastern Region to rebel together.
It's just that people's hearts are separated from each other.
Zhang Mingyuan, who was originally in charge of logistics, betrayed the two of them, resulting in Yang Qian and Wu Xiong being defeated and killed in the battle.
After all the rebels were exterminated, the imperial court sent a large army to the eastern region to massacre in order to retaliate and establish its authority, and carried out a brutal and inhumane massacre.
Everything in the city and in the fields was destroyed, and countless people were killed.
Then the people of the Eastern Territory were divided into criminals, and the Economic and Strategic Affairs Department was set up in the Eastern Territory to station troops. Zhang Mingyuan was named the first Economic and Strategic Envoy because he was loyal to the imperial court.
Take charge of the Eastern Region.
In addition to collecting gold and silver from beauties and presenting them to the court every year, the Zhang family is equivalent to the emperors of the Eastern Region.
Obviously, the imperial court also felt that after that massacre, all the people from the Eastern Region were almost wiped out, so there was nothing
The value of squeezing it was too high, so I left it to the Zhang family to get it themselves.
What’s interesting is that Dongfang Ming!
The little kid whom he appointed as the King of Zhendong also launched a rebellion with Wu Xiong and Yang Gan, which led to the annihilation of the Dongfang clan.
Zhao Kang then thought about it, could it be that these two guys, Wu Xiong and Yang Gan, deceived the little brat and destroyed the country of Qian and made him the emperor?
Judging from General Wu Xiong's enthusiasm for learning, this is not impossible.
After the establishment of the Economic Strategy Department, the Zhang family gathered 80% of the people from the Eastern Region and distributed them to ten major cities, which were the so-called Ten Sin Cities.
Slave these criminals.
Zhao Kang couldn't help but admire him after hearing this. No wonder you, Zhang Mingyuan, are able to manage the household department of Daqian and take advantage of the situation. You, Master Zhang, are an expert.
But have you ever thought that this move will affect your descendants? .??.??
…
It's dawn all night.
Although they talked all night, Wu Niankang's resentment obviously did not lessen. Instead, it became as heavy as the dark circles under his eyes. He was like a ghost following Zhao Kang who gave orders everywhere.
After everyone had packed up everything, they looked at Zhao Kang with big eyes.
The latter smiled, put him on the horse's back, and then looked at Xu Jing who had done nothing since he got up.
After thinking about it, she asked Zhang Shouqian to bring a horse, but Xu Jing didn't say anything and got on the horse.
Zhao Kang asked the soldiers from Sin City to bring them to the 10th Sin City, which is the closest to here.
According to this group of soldiers, almost 80% of the people from the Eastern Region now live in the Ten Sin Cities.
At the same time, soldiers from Zuicheng often go out, with the purpose of patrolling and catching those people from the Eastern Region who are living outside.
The sinners in the sin city eat and sleep except when they are working.
They are all shackled, and the Department of Economic Affairs has absolute power of life and death over these criminals.
The massacre was so massive and cruel that even now, decades later, no criminals have dared to resist.
And these people living in Sin City have endless work to do every day.
Either mining, building cities, or farming, there is basically no profit at all.
Even meals have to be distributed by the garrison in Suicheng.
The only way to escape his fate is to rely on the smoke coming out of his ancestral graves and be drafted into the garrison to escape his status as a criminal.
Of course there is another kind, but it is only for women.
That's the face.
However, there are also those who are unlucky. Just like Xu Jing yesterday, she was not discovered by the people from the Economic and Strategy Department, but was discovered by the garrison.
Then he was taken back to the military camp, and his fate was needless to say.
Recalling everything the soldiers in front said about Sin City last night, Zhao Kang held Wu Niankang in his arms and muttered, "Sin City, Sin City, Sin City is really quite appropriate."
After about five days of traveling, the outline of a huge city appeared in front of us.
The soldier leading the way stopped and turned around to look at Zhao Kang cautiously: "My hero, the Tenth Sin City is just ahead."
Zhao Kang said casually, "Go and shout for the people inside to open the city and surrender."
Hearing this, even Zhou Hu and others thought that Zhao Kang was crazy. Huang Batian took out the two machine guns on his back and prepared to fight.
The soldiers did not dare to say anything and hurriedly rode towards the city in front of them. However, they stopped moving after entering the city.
Letting everyone stay where they were, Zhao Kang got off his horse and walked step by step towards the tenth sin city.
Xu Jing couldn't help but look at Wu Niankang, "What is he going to do?"
