Chapter 408 Slaughtering people must be slaughtered in two parts, and dealing with captives is the most important

The criminal law is strict, including whipping, beheading, digging, etc., and even minor crimes cannot be pardoned. Previously, Fusar and Lunbuzhi were afraid of squatting in the Tang Dynasty because the black prison in Tubo was a prison dug directly underground, several zhang deep, and the prisoner had to squat for two or three years even if he committed a small crime.

If you offend a big nobleman, and the other party wants you to live and not die, then you can just throw you into the prison, and after ten years, there may only be a handful of dry bones left, even if you can survive, that is also half a life.

Fusar is still under house arrest, but Zanpo is not so happy. Shudun City used to be the royal city of Tuyuhun, with a royal palace and gardens, and naturally a dungeon. As the most valuable prisoner of war captured this time, his detention treatment is naturally different from that of other prisoners, he is locked up in the palace dungeon, and the two hundred Tang elite soldiers who are in charge of guarding around him are two hundred Tang elite soldiers who are Miao Hong, and it can be said that even a fly can't fly out.

As the son of the Tibetan minister Gar Dongzan, Zampo was born to be a human being, where has she ever tasted the taste of squatting in a dungeon? Although he had already made up his mind to die after his brother broke off that day, he was defeated and captured, and he was transferred all the way here. He thought that the generals of the Tang Dynasty would come to see him, but after waiting for three days, there was not even a shadow.

Three days followed and another three, and the days flew by, and he did not know how many indistinct lines he drew on the earthen wall, and no one came to see him except the one who delivered the food, as if he were not a captive. In the end, he finally couldn't help but ask to see the Tang general, but who knew that the soldier who delivered the meal glanced at him with an idiot look. Said a sentence slowly.

"The big marshal and the deputy marshal are not available now. I will naturally come to see you when I am free, so you can wait with peace of mind! ”

The next day, the unrelenting Zampa made a request to see Li Xian or Qi Bi Heli, however. The person who delivered the food seemed to have been instructed, but it was as if he was deaf and dumb, and he left without saying a word, without the slightest intention of rambling with him.

It was only at this time that Zanpo felt that his heart was gradually sinking. He had a noble status in Tibet, and he didn't know how many civilian slaves he had taken. Or against the Gar family, the nobles were thrown into prisons. To truly taste this hopelessness and loneliness now is to go crazy.

How did Zampo know that Li Xian treated him with extra preferential treatment, and there was still a torch for lighting in this dungeon, otherwise if it was pure darkness, I was afraid that he would not be able to support it. The dungeon of this royal palace was originally the place where King Tuyuhun used to imprison political enemies or nobles, and there are peepholes in hidden places. It seems that no one comes to see him, but in fact, there are people watching him twelve hours a day. It was feared that this prisoner with an unusual identity would be killed or wounded.

In terms of Li Xian's death order, that is, you can only lock people up, and you can't touch them!

"I heard that the brothers of the Gar family are very harmonious with each other, if they are not of the same mind as each other. It is impossible to crush those nobles in the country to death. If this tsampa dies, I am afraid that it will arouse the hatred of the Gar family. At that time, you won't be able to reap any benefits, so you must be optimistic! ”

Li Xian's eyes finally left the peephole and ordered someone to cover it up, and when he turned his head and saw Qu Tushenruo looking at him with his hands clasped behind him and smiling, he shrugged his shoulders and said something like this. At this time, a dry cough finally came from the other side, but it was Dugu Qingyun.

Dugu Qingyun didn't seem to realize how obstructive he was standing here at the moment, scratched his head and asked on the spot: "Your Highness, do you really want to send that Fusal away tomorrow?" ”

"That's just talking, sending people away, who do I ask for money?" Li Xian smiled, and pointed in the direction of the dungeon with his thumb, "Three thousand Tibetan captives may not be as valuable as a zanpo!" ”

"But ......"

Dugu Qingyun wanted to put forward his own opinions, but suddenly felt that he was good at fighting, but his ability to grasp the overall situation and organize was really insufficient.

"Your Highness is dealing with those people who don't have the Lu clan in Tubo, and on the other hand, he is ready to use Zanpo to blackmail Qinling, is this ......?"

Qu Tushenruo took over the conversation, and winked at Dugu Qingyun with a smile: "General Dugu should know that soldiers are not tired of cheating, since you can cheat and deceive unscrupulously on the battlefield, why not on this battlefield?" If the Gar family is in power alone, it is true that they will march into the outside world to ensure their prestige in the country, but once the Gar family is out of power, there are no nobles like the Lu family and the Niang family to come to power, why not take the same measures? ”

Seeing that Dugu Qingyun showed a sudden realization expression for a moment, Li Xian went up and patted him on the shoulder, unaware that there was something wrong with him, a hairy boy who was less than twenty years old, enlightening a general who was nearly forty years old.

"The matter of the war is over, the matter of Douxinyan is not over, General Dugu, you have worked hard these days, in a few days, Qinling will definitely send someone over!"

Of course, Fusal did not make it the next day, and almost as soon as he saw the generals of the Tang Army who came to "send" him, he immediately said a series of price codes - three hundred taels of gold turned into a thousand gold and silver utensils, in addition to a number of cattle, horses, sheep, beauties, and so on. Dugu Qingyun, who was in charge of the "escort", listened to the speed of this guy's speech, heart

Feeling eccentric.

Why did the fuck give King Yong everything?

Strange to strange, he still stood there and pretended to hesitate for a while, and then asked people to close the door and hurriedly went to find Li Xian. And Li Xian was shouted by Huo Huaien and Sheng Yunwen early in the morning, and when he was listening to the report of the two, he saw Dugu Qingyun rushing into the room with excitement on his face, and he didn't know what was going on.

"Dugu, do you know why the Lu clan wants to redeem three thousand captives?"

Without waiting for Dugu Qingyun to answer, he laughed: "Although Tubo now occupies a vast area, there are not many really trained soldiers, if you mobilize the whole country's young and strong, it is about 150,000 people, and the first 50,000 troops and horses have lost the battle, except for those we killed and captured, the defeated troops have been brought back by Qinling to suppress the situation." These prisoners of war were subjects. On the battlefield, of course, you have to listen to the orders of the Lord. But it is not the private soldiers of the Er family, and this redemption can be used against the Gar family. They weren't sure how many people we had captured, so they only offered to redeem three thousand! ”

"I understand what Your Highness means. Instead of temporarily pulling young and strong to resist Qinling, why don't they redeem these elite soldiers to increase their chances of victory? ”

Dugu Qingyun slapped his head suddenly, and finally understood it completely, but when he thought of the convenience of using prisoners of war to build cities and roads, and thought of the two common sayings of letting the tiger return to the mountain and raising the tiger. His brows couldn't help but frown again, and he confided his worries.

Li Xian's answer was very understated.

"Negotiation is negotiation, this captive should still do something, this Fusal is not the number one person, even if the preliminary intention is reached, I have to let him bring the big man over for me to meet! I heard that Qinling's life is not easy now, and those nobles can't withstand his soldiers, so they pull out Xiao Zampu as a call. I heard that many soldiers loyal to the royal family have thrown themselves over, and the two sides are evenly matched, and the east wind will not be able to overwhelm the west wind for a while and a half, and the west wind will not be able to overwhelm the east wind. More than 10,000 captives are very valuable! ”

He Li didn't care about this matter in Qibi, and Li Xian sent a message to the Tang Dynasty court in Chang'an. Claiming to treat the captives with kindness and virtue, he had to negotiate amicably with Tibet, so the power to dispose of the captives was personally issued by Li Zhi and sent to Li Xian. As for the old ministers who were worried about the endless war in the northwest, they also breathed a sigh of relief.

Anyway, Li Xian promised not to kill prisoners, he can do whatever he wants, as long as he doesn't fight!

Shudun City retained 5,000 Tang troops, Fu Qicheng garrisoned 3,000, and the rest were gradually withdrawn from the state. Now that Tubo has no heart to fight, Tuyuhun has no strength to fight, and the garrison army consumes a lot of money and grain, and Li Xian himself feels that it is not cost-effective, so naturally he will not force himself to pull the 40,000 army. Even if it really starts, with the distance between Shudun City and Datang Longxi, it is very convenient to transfer troops or retreat.

And the prisoners of war that Li Xian kept saying that he wanted to treat kindly, those prisoners of war who he called Jingui, are now miserable and happy. The soldiers of Tibet are not standing soldiers, the officers are nobles, and the soldiers are all from the people, and they have to work to make a living without fighting, and they are not afraid of hard work. After being starved half to death by Li Xian's dismount, their rations have recently relaxed a little, and Li Xian has released a word in time that someone in Tubo wants to redeem 3,000 prisoners of war.

This new, never-before-heard of event excites the large number of captives. Seeing that a few days ago, several people who escaped were quickly chased back by the Tang Army, and they showed their heads to the public on the spot, and their heads are still hanging on the flagpole, and many people have no idea of escaping. Now I hear that as long as you perform well and can go back, who is not willing to work hard? As a result, the efficiency of both building cities and roads doubled dramatically.

"Isn't this supposed to be called painting bread to satisfy hunger?"

Seeing that Li Xian only had to move his mouth and someone would faithfully implement the plan, seeing Fusal raising the price every day there, seeing the envoy of Qinling being blocked outside the city, jumping up and down and walking around, and seeing that the group of Tibetan prisoners of war broke out one by one with great potential and looked forward to going home, Qu Tushen had to admit that as long as Li Xian, a lazy guy, was willing to think of ideas, it was indeed someone who was unlucky.

"This bread is not just on paper, but it is so close that it seems to be immediate, and those who are already desperate can not give birth to hope? The bottom of this battlefield is the same as the top of the battlefield, the siege is the bottom, and the attack is the top! ”

Li Xian smiled and grabbed Qu Tushenruo's hand, and took advantage of the situation to add: "If I hadn't broken your heart, would I dare to propose to you?" ”

Qu Tushenruo didn't expect Li Xian to go around and return to him, and he was immediately angry, and gave him a white look: "Okay, don't show off your poor mouth, I heard that the envoy of Qinling almost didn't wipe his neck to show his sincerity, don't hang others for too long!" ”

"What's it to hang him? Just because Qin Ling dared to attack you and Helan that day, I can't just hang him for a few years! This time it was Zanpo who was arrested, if it was Qinling who was caught, even if I didn't want to give credit to the prince, I would have to kill him! ”

In an instant, Lee Hyun's hippie smile disappeared without a trace, replaced by a gritted look of anger. Qu Tushenruo next to him was stunned at first, and then showed a charming smile. Chong Guan was angry and blushed, which is really beautiful.
