"Among the more than 6,000 captives, there are more than 5,000 Han Chinese, and nearly 1,000 Manchurian Tatars, just let Ma Zhishu and Xinzhu run away!" , the staff officer took the booklet and reported to Chen Jialuo and other senior officials of the Red Flower Society, "At present, these people have all been detained in temporary cells, I think their emotions are very unstable now, the staff department means that they have to come up with a settlement charter as soon as possible, if it is a long time, I am afraid it is easy to change!" ”

"What do you think about what you think about what to do with these captives?" , Huang Shijian's sailors had already retreated after learning the news of the defeat of the land route, and the 5,000 green battalions from the west were even more unbearable, and retreated thirty miles in a row after the defeat of Ma Chengshu; In the next six months, Funing Mansion hardly had to worry about being attacked by a large Qing army, and the Red Flower Society used the gun in its hand to buy itself valuable time for development.

"According to my meaning, these Han people are all sent to Mr. Huang's mine to open mines, and the Tartars are all killed!" , Luo Bing hated the Tartar to the core, so the method he chose was more intense.

"Now is the time to expand the army, these more than 5,000 green battalions may be able to add one or two to us, the chief helmsman might as well send someone to screen it?" , Zhao Banshan is a businessman, and he always feels that it is too wasteful for so many people to pull all of them to open mines.

After the two of them, several leaders of the Red Flower Society put forward several different plans, these differences were mainly focused on the green battalion soldiers, and for those Eight Banners, they unanimously agreed to kill them all, seeing that Chen Jialuo was silent for a long time, someone asked, "I don't know what the chief helmsman has planned?" ”

"My idea is first to use these people to hold a victory parade in Funing Mansion, and pull these captives out to the people of Funing, first, to show our strength and deter Xiaoxiao, and second, to establish confidence among the people and lay the foundation for the next policy implementation and recruitment." , if those people still thought that the Qing army would soon be able to recover Funing. Then, after seeing so many captives, they may have to consider surviving under the long-term rule of the Red Flower Society.

"As for the parade, it's over!" , Chen Jialuo continued, "It's too wasteful to kill so many people directly." Moreover, it has been ominous to kill prisoners since ancient times, so we might as well inform Yang Tingzhang of them. Let them redeem the captives with silver. ”

"Isn't this a return to the mountains? I'm afraid there will be endless troubles? Lu Feiqing hesitated.

"Hehe, do they deserve to be called tigers too?" Chen Jialuo explained with a smile, "You might as well think about it, after these people are redeemed, even if the Tartars are relieved to let them go to the battlefield again, they know when they meet us that even if they surrender, they will not die." Will you still be determined to fight us to the death? Besides, according to the virtues of these Tartar officials, they are afraid that they are reluctant to redeem all these people, and they dare not redeem those Manchurians in the Eight Banners, as for these Han green camps, who will care about their life or death? ”

"In this way, it can not only weaken the enemy's determination to fight, but also drive a wedge between the Manchu and Han soldiers." , Huo Qingtong echoed, "It's just that it seems a pity that these Tartars are let go so easily!" ”

"It's just a temporary release, there won't be such a cheap thing in the future!" , Chen Jialuo explained. "When we have the strength to occupy the whole of Fujian, it is time to settle the ledger with the Tartars, and we will not let go of any of them at that time!"

We discussed it. Everyone still accepted Chen Jialuo's plan, and selected two officers from the captives and put them back, with a letter from the Red Flower Society to Yang Tingzhang.

"The Manchurian people are one thirty taels, the foreign commissioners are sixty taels, the foreign commissioners are one hundred taels, the total is one hundred and fifty taels, the thousand are two hundred taels, the Han people are ten taels, the foreign commissioners are twenty taels, and the foreign commissioners are fifty taels. put the total eighty taels, and the thousand total one hundred and twenty taels". The four captives knelt in the hall and read the different price codes marked by Chen Jialuo for the captives, and the faces of Yang Tingzhang, Wu Kegong, Xinzhu and others in the hall were like ashes. After this defeat, their future was bleak, but the letter gave a glimmer of hope.

If you redeem all these people, you will have less responsibility, and then play tricks on the folds, and give some money, maybe you will be able to fool this level; After listening, Yang Tingzhang waved his hand to make the four people stand back, and gently tapped his fingers on the table and asked, "What do you think?" What tricks do these thieves play? ”

Wu Kegong shook his head and smiled bitterly, "Since these thieves have this plan, I'm afraid they won't just send these four people, presumably it won't be long before the families of those captives will know the news; We'll have to make a quick decision. ”

"How much money can we come up with right now?" , The most pressure in this is the new pillar, the Han people are good to say, these Eight Banners live with him in the city on weekdays, and a little turn can be related to his family, I heard that his house is now blocked, and the wives and daughters of each family cry in his house.

Wu Kegong and Yang Tingzhang glanced at each other, and finally Yang Tingzhang said, "There is still some silver in the treasury at the moment, but now there are a lot of places to use money, and at most I can take out 100,000 taels of silver to handle this matter!" ”

"100,000 taels of silver is not enough to redeem all these people!" , Xinzhu silently calculated, the letter read by the captive had already said that the ransom for the meritorious position on his body was doubled, and these Manchurian Eight Banners were indispensable to these, and 100,000 taels was only enough to redeem the more than 1,000 Eight Banner soldiers.

Everyone was silent again, and after a long time, Yang Tingzhang coughed and said, "The thief's words can't be trusted, let's take out some silver to redeem some of the soldiers first, and if it really happens, we will make up money to redeem the next batch." ”

It is self-evident to redeem those people first, Yang Tingzhang's words can be regarded as giving everyone a step, Xinzhu was the first to respond, and then Huang Shijian and Wu Kegong also agreed, even if Ma Chengshu was angry in his heart, he could only endure it.

Three days later, the messenger sent by Yang Tingzhang came to Funing Mansion with a reply from the Fujian government, just in time for the grand military parade and prisoner sacrifice ceremony, the mighty Red Flower Society soldiers and those dejected prisoners were in stark contrast, the neat queue, the murderous aura shocked the messenger's legs, almost fainted, and the surrounding Funing people also saw that the imperial court had no way to take back this place in a short period of time, and then thought that the Red Flower Society had no offense against them in the autumn these days, and vaguely felt in his heart that this was not a bad thing.

The door of the cell opened with a bang, and an officer of the Red Flower Society walked in, holding a roster and pointing out several names in a row, "Erdenbu, Folroll, Goxinga, you three come out!" Yang Tingzhang sent someone to send money to redeem you, and you can go home now!" ”

"My lord, what about us?" , a dozen or so Han soldiers in the same cell immediately surrounded them.

"You guys? Those in office don't plan to spend money on you! Stay tuned! (To be continued)
