"If you want us to be slaves to the country, then swear to fight them to the end!"

"Fight to the end?" The man said with contempt, "What shall we fight with them?" As you can see today, we are no match for them at all, and to fight to the end is to sacrifice our lives for nothing. ”

"What then?"

The crowd asked in frustration that today's battle had indeed completely shattered their self-confidence, and these people immediately went from one extreme to the other, and became extremely inferior.

The man blinked but did not speak, and then another honest-looking man tentatively answered: "I heard those Song people say that they did not come here to enslave us, but only to crusade against the Wang clan for disrespecting the courtesy, betraying the lord for glory, and cruelty to the people, which has nothing to do with us.

Those Song people also said, don't you Goryeo call yourself some kind of Little China? It's so unproductive! They also said that as long as we are obedient, we can be the subjects of the great powers of the Celestial Empire......"

As soon as these words came out, some people in the crowd immediately exploded, some people were angry, some people were depressed, some people were silent, and some people yearned for it.

But since he was beaten to the ground, the momentum has been taken. At this time, although you can bury your own pot and cook by yourself, and you can talk freely, there are still heavily armed Liangshan sergeants standing guard not far away, and no one dares to attack on the spot.

"Raised by a son of a bitch, were you bought by the Song people to say such a thing......"

The man's face turned red, but when he thought of having Liang Shanjun's support, he suddenly became confident again: "What's wrong with being a Song person?" Goryeo is not weak enough to protect ourselves, don't we all dream of becoming the subjects of a great country and enjoying the treatment of a great country? If the Great China of the Song Dynasty took over our Goryeo Little China, we would be the people of a big country, what is wrong? ”

The person who first brought the topic immediately said: "I have also heard that these Song people said that the Chinese people are naturally superior, not only have advanced cultural accumulation and inheritance, but even Taizu (Wang Jian) also said, 'Only I am in the East, the old Mu Tang style, cultural relics, etiquette and music, all follow its system', and we even use Chinese characters for writing (Note 1)!"

In addition to the advanced culture, the technology of China is also advanced, the bows and arrows, long knives, and armor of the Song people have also been seen, and our weapons and armor are not their opponents at all! If we can become the people of China, who will dare to bully us in the future? ”

For all Koreans, the inferiority complex and insecurity of the widows of a small country have long been rooted in everyone's hearts, and there is a chance for them to become the citizens of a big country with high eyebrows, and some people are naturally tempted.

But some people muttered: "But the Song Dynasty can't even win the Liao State, and the Liao State can't win the Jurchen barbarians, can the Song Dynasty protect us?" ”

The person who was the first to bring the topic immediately said: "What do you know, the current Song Dynasty is not the same as before. Everyone also knows that this time to fight us is actually the Liangshan army, this Liangshan army has only been an army for a year, but it is invincible and invincible, and it is not their opponent until the Great Song Dynasty, or the Liao State is not their opponent!

You don't know, a few months ago, the Liangshan army only attacked the Liao State with more than 3,000 soldiers and horses, and only 100,000 Liao troops were powerless to fight back, and even took down eight state capitals and captured more than 70,000 Liao troops......"

When such a similar fantasy is said, most of the Goryeo prisoners of war naturally can't believe it, but it doesn't matter, after all, this thing really can't be true, Liang Shanjun has time for them to believe it, not to mention that Du Yan also specially brought the two living treasure trophies of Wanyan Wushu and Wanyan Yinshuke.

When the truth is revealed to them little by little, and more and more information and guidance are coming, it is believed that these Korean prisoners of war will make the right choice.

Most of the Goryeo prisoners of war were still engaged in ideological struggle, and the Goryeo slaves and sluts who were rescued after the capture of Yeeseong Port did not have so much hesitation, and the vast majority of them chose to throw themselves to the side of the Liangshan Army as soon as possible and became the subjects of the Chinese Celestial Empire.

The strategy and tactics of the Liangshan Army are actually a simple four-word encirclement point to send reinforcements, since the first battle completely annihilated 35,000 Kaijing Zhengjun and defeated 12,000 Wang Army. After the reinforcement is completed, the point does not need to be around.

After Deng Fei and Shan Tingqi rushed to Licheng Port with their troops, Licheng Port, which was garrisoned by only 1,600 troops, was quickly defeated, and then naturally everything was done according to the established plan, checking and dividing the property of all Goryeo officials, clans, and officials, and going door to door to release and rescue the slaves and maids in the city.

It is also interesting to say, because in addition to the Wang clan, most of the people who retire and do business in Yeesung Port are powerful ministers and nobles of the Goryeo Kingdom, and they are the top nobles of Goryeo; Moreover, Goryeo has the habit of being a private soldier and a slave general.

When the Liangshan army officially attacked the city, most of the family members of these clans and top nobles had a wise attitude of protecting themselves, and did not send many private soldiers to help defend the city, but one by one they said something good under the pretext of asking for surrender, thinking that the Song people would let them go.

After breaking the city, the Liangshan army did not have the slightest intention of winning them and building relations with them, but directly sent troops to seize various properties and release all slaves and sluts.

However, at this time, it was too late, and Zhu Wu's order was clearly understood, and the Liangshan sergeant who was on the mission could not expect these private soldiers, and directly suppressed the riot by thunderous means, killing these Goryeo nobles and many private soldiers with fear, and their heads were rolling.

However, for these rescued slaves and sluts, the Liangshan soldiers were very kind, and everywhere they went, they sent people to tell them in Goryeo that you are free now, we are here to rescue you, as long as you are willing, you can become the people of the Heavenly Empire, we can give you clothes to wear, so that you can eat your stomach, and give you a house and a land......

At the beginning, these ancestors were used to being subordinates, and they were beaten and scolded at every turn, and even the slaves and maids who might be beaten to death if they made a small mistake were simply stunned and couldn't believe it at all.

But when they were taken to the Yamen of Lichenggang, Wang Jian's old mansion, the mansion of an important minister, saw that many nobles and lords who had oppressed them before, and the generals and stewards had been cut down; There was a big pot on the stove in the yard, and countless rice grains, pigs, sheep, fish and ducks, vegetables and vegetables seemed to be moved into it without money, smelling the fragrant aroma, these slaves who were used to being cattle and sheep finally believed that this was true.

After the huge shock, especially after eating the first full meal and good meal, and thinking about the words of the Song people before, these slaves suddenly became so excited that they couldn't do it.

"This meat is so fragrant, it's the first time I've eaten such delicious meat, it's so delicious!"

"Why is it the first time you've eaten such delicious meat, I'm afraid you haven't even eaten meat before, right?"

The man's face turned red, of course he had eaten meat, but it was not pork and mutton, nor chicken, duck and fish, so the owner would naturally not give them such a good meal. He didn't know how to get the rat meat and bird meat he caught, and he secretly roasted it over the fire and ate it, and the taste was incomparable to what he ate today.

However, he didn't defend when he was squeezed out, but was full of emotion, and even cried with some sadness: "Speaking of which, we really want to thank Liang Shanjun, if it wasn't for Liang Shanjun who rescued us, how could we eat such a fragrant meal, it's so delicious that we have to swallow our tongues!" ”

These words immediately resonated with the others, thinking of the days when there was no light in the past, and the children and grandchildren could not see the slightest hope for generations of slaves and slaves, and thinking of the promise that Liang Shanjun had given them - from now on you will be free people, these people only feel like a world away.

"This time, the Liangshan Army not only saved us, but also gave us the treatment of the people of the Heavenly Empire, as long as we are willing, we can be the people of China from now on, and we will never be bullied and oppressed again, what do you say?"

"Needless to say, of course you have to stand up and be a Chinese, do you want to go back to live that lowly life like cattle and sheep, and be a dog for the Goryeo masters? How many lifetimes have you been a slave, but you haven't been enough? ”

"That's it, that's it, I'm willing to be a Chinese ......"

"I'm also willing, our whole family is willing to be Huaxia, and we will follow Liangshanjun in the future......"

"Think about it, the Celestial Empire, the people of the great country ......"

Unlike the Goryeo prisoners of war, these freed slaves did not need to be deliberately guided by a topic, and the vast majority of them did not hesitate at all, and wept bitterly and expressed their willingness to be obedient citizens of the Heavenly Empire from now on, and followed the Liangshan army in the future.

Of course, there are also a few people who may be worried that the Liangshan army is lying to them, and when the Liangshan army is gone, the Goryeo soldiers and horses will kill again; Or maybe the slave is used to it, and he is still a little unaccustomed to being a man for a while.

In short, no matter what the psychology of these people is, Liang Shanjun didn't waste too much effort on them, giving them two days to think about it, if they don't want to be the people of Huaxia, and continue to be the fourth class slave and maid slut of Goryeo, Liang Shanjun can give them travel expenses, let them out of the city, and let them fend for themselves.

Ignoring this, he just said that Zhu Wu, who had been busy all the time, came to Licheng Port, and immediately went to various resettlement points to visit and comfort these rescued slaves, and solemnly made a guarantee, and then had time to return to the temporary military camp in Licheng Port to start eating.

At this time, I saw Hu Cheng walking in with a happy face, and when he saw Zhu Wu from afar, he shouted: "Military Division, we can make a fortune this time, the money and materials seized this time, just a rough estimate, are enough to be four million!" ”

Zhu Wu was eating, and when he heard this, he couldn't help but stop chewing, and hurriedly swallowed a piece of mutton in his mouth, and said, "There are so many?" ”

Speaking of Licheng Port, it is the largest port of Goryeo's domestic and foreign trade, and it can also be said that it is almost the only foreign trade port, backed by Goryeo's own population of more than 2 million people, and it is also a transit station and logistics center for Liao, Jurchen, and Wa States.

No matter how rich Licheng Port is, after all, Goryeo is only a small country, isn't it?

I saw Hu Cheng said with a red face: "Speaking of which, thanks to the aristocracy and slave and maid system of Goryeo, this time we rescued more than 30,000 slaves and maids, these were like cattle and horses in the past, and they were not paid for their work, and they barely starved to death."

Yeesung Port is also the largest foreign trade port in Goryeo, where all the wealthy merchants and high-ranking nobles are concentrated. Not to mention anything else, let's just say that the Goryeo clans in Wang Jian's former residence have seized enough money of 1.5 million yuan!

Speaking of which, these people are no longer close to the branch lineage, and when they rely on the identity of the clan, they are still amassing countless wealth, and they are simply rich enough to rival the country! There is also the family of the powerful minister Incheon Lee here, and at least 800,000 yuan of money has also been seized! ”

Zhu Wu nodded, thinking about it, the class solidification of Goryeo was much more serious than that of the Great Song Dynasty, and it belonged to the aristocracy, and the number of slaves and maids was three or four percent, and the rest of the people were also poor tenant farmers.

It can be said that less than one percent of the top aristocratic population in Goryeo occupies ninety percent of the land and wealth, and wealth is highly concentrated.

"It seems that the military lord is really right, these Goryeo are really very servile, if the officials of the Great Song Dynasty are so wealthy, and the common people live so hard, I don't know how many times they have rebelled.

However, the step we took this time to rescue the slaves and sluts and post notices to give preferential treatment to the tenants was really the right move, and these rescued slaves reacted very violently and were very emotional!

I believe that it will not be long before it can be our help, at least to help us defend the city and act as an auxiliary. ”

Speaking of Lin Chong's brother-in-law, Hu Cheng was also proud, and hurriedly said: "That's natural, the military master is the man of destiny, he knows everything, can what he said be wrong?" ”

After a pause, he suddenly thought of something, and asked again: "Marshal Du has already led the troops to surround the capital, right?" After this battle, the Goryeo army in the city must have already lost its heart, right? ”

Zhu Wu smiled: "Presumably, speaking of which, the Koreans are also very inward-looking, they were arrogant at the beginning, their morale was also very high, and their military skills were not bad, I see that their formation is not that kind of rabble."

Before, I was still a little worried that there would be a fierce battle, although our army would definitely win, presumably there would be no fewer casualties, but if they really moved hard, these Koreans were immediately instigated, and the whole line collapsed before a round arrived. With such a national character, he has lost his heart when he wants to come to Kaijing at this moment, and he should not dare to go to war, but will send people to ask for peace and surrender to delay time, and at the same time send a message to the north to transfer the border army to Qinwang. ”

Hu Cheng nodded, this is the battle plan of the Liangshan Army that has been calculated a long time ago, and now everything is going according to the established plan, so

Note 1: Later Hangul, also known as Korean proverb, was invented in the 15th century during the reign of King Sejong of Joseon of the Lee family, and before that Silla and Goryeo used Chinese characters, but they have been resisted by the people, and Chinese characters are commonly used. It was not until modern times, after the end of Japanese rule, that the two countries simultaneously launched a movement to purify the Chinese language, and Chinese characters gradually disappeared from the peninsula. But it also brings a problem, that is, all the ancient books are not read.
