Chapter Seventy-Six: Turn Them into Coolies

"My words are true, I say that I will not kill you if I don't kill you, but you must also remember that now you are captives, and captives are slaves in the eyes of your nomads.

There are only two choices for slaves who want to turn over, either to redeem themselves, and then to be pardoned for meritorious service, and you don't have to think about the second option, you quickly write to your father Shan Yu, ask him to pay the ransom, and then you can be released. Liu Xie said lightly, and the king's aura of not being angry and arrogant gradually emanated.

Liu Bao was excited, if it was really as Liu Xie said, then this time it was the right bet, at least he could save his life.

As long as you live, there is hope, wait for yourself to go back, develop well, regroup, and go south in the coming winter, and the east of the river will be stirred up in all directions, and the beacon smoke will be everywhere.

However, Liu Xie changed his words and said: "However, before the ransom arrives, you must first have the consciousness of being a captive or a slave, because I can't support you in vain, so before that, you have to work and be responsible for rebuilding my Hedong, and make your due redemption for the restoration of Hedong." ”

Liu Bao was abrupt and asked anxiously: "I don't know what Your Majesty is referring to?" ”

"Simple, I want to restore the east of the river, first of all, this road must be repaired, the city must be repaired, this ditch must be dug, and this wasteland seems to have to be turned deeper." Liu Xie smiled and looked at Liu Bao.

If such a good labor force is not used, it will really be sorry for the people and the system bosses.

Liu Bao scolded in his heart, building roads, repairing cities, and digging canals, this Han Emperor wanted to turn them into coolies, and he didn't know how many people would freeze and starve to death at that time.

"That's right! One more thing you have to remember, you must take care of your men, as soon as I find that a captive has escaped, or there are signs of escape, all of them will be punished, and if I find out that there is still your influence in it, I will not mind taking a part from you. ”

Liu Xie's words immediately choked Liu Bao's throat, making him breathe heavily and his heart became even more manic.

But seeing that there were Han army guards all around, Liu Bao could only swallow his anger, not daring to have half a sentence of disobedience, and he didn't dare to overflow the noble arrogance of Wang Hou.

"Your Majesty, you really let them go like this, let them redeem it." Li Yan saw that Liu Bao was taken away, and the hatred in his heart was undiminished.

This group of Huns is not only Hedong, but also ruined by them, and the county town of Taiyuan was almost breached.

Liu Xie looked at Jia Xu with a smile: "This I naturally have to talk and count, the problem is from Jia Aiqing, you look for him to solve it." ”

"Ahem! Your Majesty, this is also for ...... Hey, Your Majesty, you can't blame it all on the ministers. Jia Xu smiled bitterly, he has never liked to take the blame, but he doesn't want to attract everyone's firepower.

"I don't care what your reason is, anyway, if you find a way, I want to see the best of both worlds." How could this little problem stump Jia Xu, Liu Xie shook his hand and left.

Li Yan and the others had no choice but to block Jia Xu, and Jia Xu had no choice but to say: "The redemption must be to let the Xiongnu go back to redeem some people, but how to redeem is up to us, and how many people to redeem is naturally up to us."

Didn't Your Majesty say that you would build cities, roads, and canals? The city does not need to be repaired by these aliens, let them go and build roads, and escort them to various places separately according to a team of 100 people, repair the roads for half a month, and then repair the canals, and His Majesty wants to dig a canal from Anyi to Urasaka, and the foundation work of digging the canal will be done by these prisoners.

There are also iron ore directions that can also be pumped over, the iron mine cave has the most casualties, and it is more closed, now you are satisfied. ”

Li Yan nodded and said, "In this way, all of them will go to the iron mines." ”

"That's right! All send them to the iron mines. ”

Iron mines are easier to guard, and they have the most casualties, and they also need the most young and strong laborers, so they can take away the strong and strong prisoners, and keep the old, weak, sick and disabled in exchange for money, and everyone agrees.

As for the handling of the Xiongnu prisoners, they naturally did it in the strictest direction, and asked the Xiongnu to plunder in the south every year, and who did not have any villagers who were harmed, and naturally had a deep grudge.

"You can't mess around with this, except for those who go to the mine, you can be injured in other aspects, but don't die, Your Majesty also pointed to them to change some war horses, and in the future, we have more war horses, so we can go north to attack the place where the Huns gather, and we can't lose a lot." Jia Xu saw that they were all filled with righteous indignation, planning how to kill these prisoners, and reminded him.

"Lord Jia, isn't the captured war horse this time enough?" If it weren't for the war horses, this time they would have killed these Huns directly, and what more prisoners would they want.

Jia Xu really wanted to roll his eyes, but smiled helplessly: "How can it be enough, this time it is only 3,000 horses of Liu Bao's department, plus seven or eight hundred horses of the Beibei department, counting our original war horses, I have a total of more than 4,600 horses now, and it is okay to use them for defensive operations, if you go to attack other places, especially if you go north to attack the Xiongnu gathering place, it will be overstretched." ”

Set the tone and policy, Liu Xie did not care about dealing with the surrender of prisoners, but asked people to find Zhao Yun.

Zhao Yun's arrival was the joy of this big victory, and the duel was unexpected by Liu Xie, so after hearing Li Yan tell him that a nephew named Zhao Yun came to help, he couldn't help but be excited.

Now Hedong lacks everything, especially talents, and the Wenchen who governs the place is okay, and after this battle, he can bring back the hundred officials, and then he will not have to rely on the family of Hedong.

There is really a shortage of generals.

Soon Zhao Yun was brought over by the guards, and when Zhao Yun saw Liu Xie, he immediately bowed and said: "Grass people Zhao Yun, meet Your Majesty!" ”

has no official and no position, and it is reasonable to call himself a grass citizen.

Liu Xie stood up and walked over: "Zhao Yun is not polite, let me take a good look, and see how I am a good man, how I am a fierce general with a brave body." ”

"Ding! Congratulations to the host for discovering the famous general Zhao Yun, stimulating the golden treasure chest, and opening the way - hero! Commander! Ten wins! Loyal to the host! ”

Another concise tip!

The system boss is slipping farther and farther in the direction of laziness!

Fortunately, these ten words are still easy to understand, and the conditions don't seem to be very harsh, and Liu Xie has information that can open it very quickly.

Zhao Yun was stunned for a moment, but he still stood up, straightened his body, and talked with a flat expression, but his eyes were on Liu Xie.

Sure enough, the Son of Heaven is so young, but he has the confidence and the spirit of a king that no one has, and he has a very special charm, which makes people inexplicably awe-inspired.

He has assisted Gongsun Zhan, handed over Liu Bei, and looked at Yuan Shao from afar, but the Son of Heaven in front of him feels like an experience that he has never had before, and it makes him feel a little impenetrable, like being stared at by a tiger, which is very wonderful.

"Yes! Not bad! Liu Xie looked at Zhao Yun carefully, and sure enough, he was as good as his name, he looked like a jade tree in the wind, a talent, handsome and fair-skinned.

"Give Zilong a seat." Liu Xieyi turned around and returned to his position, and then said, "Zilong told me about your affairs in Yicheng, how you single-handedly rushed to kill the Hun army. ”

Zhao Yun didn't expect Liu Xie to give such a high courtesy, so he hurriedly thanked him and then sat down, saying word by word, not daring to brag or delete, and telling the truth.
