"Boy, what does it feel like to be a conqueror?" As soon as he reached the gate of the palace, he saw a large group of people kneeling there, and they did not dare to raise their heads. Compassion had never personally occupied a big city, and Hong Tao had to educate him on how to deal with such a scene.

"Hey, hey, hey...... Anyway, it's better than being beaten......" Mercy only smirked at this time, so many people, all local officials and rich people kneeling at his feet, he really hadn't experienced it, this feeling was completely different from being bowed down by a large group of slaves.

"Shut your mouth shut, and don't laugh like a fool who has never seen the world. The more this time, the more you have to cover up your emotions and don't let them know what you really think. The more mysterious you are, the easier it is for them to succumb. When necessary, blood must be used to make you more respected and feared. If you were me, what would you do with these people? They were all vassals and dependents of the former Sultan. Hong Tao simply stopped and pointed at the group of people in front of him with his chin.

"Kill! Liwei, I know! They are all burned to death on the docks, and they have to be watched by the residents here! "If you don't say that adults are the objects of imitation by children, it is useless to educate children just by talking with their mouths. If you teach your children to be honest all day long, and as a result, if you talk nonsense to colleagues, employers, and neighbors when you have nothing to do, your children will definitely learn the same. The same is true of Compassion, which he uses in the same way that Hong Tao did in the port of Kalamba.

"Kill them all?" Hong Tao didn't expect mercy to be so ruthless.

“…… Or do you leave the young people and children behind, and burn only the old people and women? When Compassion heard Hong Tao ask, she immediately realized that her handling method was flawed. I tilted my head and thought about it, and made another change.

"Why do you want to leave young people and children to burn the old and women?" This time, Hong Tao really didn't understand.

"Young people can work as slaves. Old people and women are useless! Compassion didn't even think about it, and answered Hong Tao's question exactly according to the idea of catching slaves.

"You're a fucking captain, and your father's brain has not been inherited. It is the young people and children who should be killed, and they are the biggest unstable factors in the future here. We killed their parents, brothers and sisters, and you can expect them to grow up and not harm you? Old men and women are just appendages to men here, and keeping them can show your magnanimity and not trouble you. Who wants to be with someone who kills innocents indiscriminately? It's okay to kill people. But you have to come up with a good reason, and you have to fit the local customs. Now you immediately think, give me, no. Not for me, but for the inhabitants of this place to give a reason to kill them! "Hong Tao was a little disappointed in compassion, and this child did not develop much in the future. It's not that he's not loyal enough, and he's not smart enough. It's a pity that great wisdom is missing. It's innate, and it's hard to change the day after tomorrow.

“…… Tell me, I can't figure it out. "Compassion has an advantage, or it is a family heirloom of the loving family, shameless, not at all, if you don't know, you say you don't know.

"Behold, the lion knows, right? Only one adult male lion is allowed in a lion pack. If the male lion is defeated by another male lion, all of its minor children will be killed by the new male lion. This is for the sake of pure blood. It's the same with people, we are the new lion, and the king sultan is the old lion. If he is defeated by us, then his children cannot be kept, because keeping them will cause some people with a heart to have superfluous thoughts, which will cause more trouble in the future. Killing them looks cruel, but in fact, it protects ourselves and the people here. Even if someone wants to rebel, they can't find a very suitable reason, unless we really have bad governance here, do we understand this truth? Although Hong Tao does not expect Mercy to become a handsome man in the empire in the future, he must explain clearly what he should be told, it is his problem whether he understands or not, and it is his responsibility whether he can understand it or not.

"Understood, cut the grass and eradicate the roots, kill all their families, and no one will use them as a cover in the future, right? Your Majesty...... Do girls still kill? "Compassion really doesn't seem to be the material for a big leader, and I still don't understand it too much.

"Haven't you heard of a queen?" Hong Tao's little eyes began to widen again, and he was very annoyed to discuss problems with the stupid person.

"Haven't heard of it...... Can a woman still be a king? "Compassion, this thing that doesn't know how to die, still makes up materials for itself.

"Looks like it's time for me to talk to Weng Ya, and you still expect to be the commander of the Royal Navy with this little thing in your head? Let's go home and read for a few years, and don't eat or go to bed until you finish reading. Disappear from my eyes, I look at you dizzy! "Hong Tao is really sad for Cixi, why did he give birth to such a thing that does not learn and has no skills, if it weren't for Cixi's face, he should have been thrown to Carl's castle to count birds and play.

Compassion is not afraid of anything, but he is afraid that Weng Ya will know that he is not angry outside, and if the emperor goes to sue in person, he will not have a good life when he goes home. This anger did not dare to spread on Hong Tao, so he could only take the Sultan's family out. Originally, he only planned to kill only the Sultan's close relatives, but now he doesn't have this kind eye, not only will the men of the Sultan's family in the palace be killed, but also the people will be searched all over the city, and all the families who are related to the Sultan and will be caught on the dock under the age of forty, and poured mixed oil on the sky lantern. The whole city has to watch, and those who dare not see it will be regarded as a rebellion and will be dealt with in the same way.

"Lao Sai, why didn't you intercede for them this time?" It doesn't matter how mercy tosses Hong Tao, he is not a bad person, killing people is killed by mercy, and the matter of pacifying people is taken care of by him, the great good man emperor, not only allows the remaining old people and women to continue to live in the palace, but also allows them to choose their own way out in the future, and pay the passage fee for those who want to go home. After dealing with these people, Hong Tao rubbed his cheeks, which were already sour, and suddenly remembered something, Said, this old man is very abnormal?

"I heard the conversation between Your Majesty and the General, and you handled it very correctly. When the Sultan organized the men to attack your caravan, they were already dead, and it is not good to keep them here, they are sinners of Allah and deserve punishment. Your Majesty's ability to bury them in the fire according to our custom is already the greatest forgiveness for them. Now there are four sheikhs who remain in the city who are more suitable for the position of the Sultan, and the most important thing is to elect a successor as soon as possible, I don't know who Your Majesty prefers? "Said wants to say that it is completely out of public intentions, and he doesn't believe that he killed Hong Tao. When they were attacked together in the caravan, the old man probably hated the sultan here, and he was an ally on the same side as himself on this issue.

"If the patriarch of the Ain family is suitable for this position, I am more inclined to him, their family has been in contact with the empire and maritime merchants for many years, and the two sides know each other better, and the communication is relatively smooth, which is good for the future of this place. If there is more resistance to him becoming a sultan, then you can discuss it, and I will not interfere. But I have one condition, if the new sultan you have elected cannot satisfy the inhabitants and the empire in the future, then I will have to bring the warship again, and I am afraid that I will not be so polite at that time. Hong Tao clearly expressed his wishes in front of Alin, which can be regarded as an explanation and warning to his family. As for who becomes the sultan, it really doesn't make a big difference, if you can overthrow it once, you can overthrow it a second time.

"Then it will be up to Sheikh Duward, and a meeting will be held tomorrow, and now I will talk to them, and let them come forward and take His Majesty's army around the city, and appease the local population, and don't let them have other ideas." Said was very satisfied with Hong Tao's attitude, it was already good for a conqueror to give the right to vote to the vanquished, and he could not ask for too much.

"Alin, don't leave yet, Saeed is enough to go alone, you have another important mission. Although the old Sultan is dead, his family power has not yet been completely cleared. I asked the women just now, he has another tribe in the west, which belongs to his brother. Now I need you to take my army to exterminate this tribe. I'll give you seven hundred, plus your Bedouin friends, that should be enough, right? Hong Tao understands the word "weeding and rooting" very thoroughly, not only to remove the roots, but also to burn the scattered seeds, this kind of thing can not be afraid of trouble.

"Enough, I know less than a thousand people from that tribe." My father is going to be the king of the Sultan, and he will be a prince in the future, and Matini is not here, and he will probably never come back to fight with him, so he is not the future heir of the Sultan. For this reason, he has to sell his strength, not for Hong Tao, but for himself, even if Hong Tao doesn't go, he has to remind Hong Tao to go.

According to the rules of the Arabs, the women in the Sultan's house were all the spoils of Hong Tao's war and belonged to him. However, Hong Tao has no interest in these queens, concubines and the like, and the young daughters are all burned to death by mercy, so what's the use of bringing a lot of wives home? After inquiring about the rules here, Hong Tao sold these dozens of women to Alin's father, and all of them became his harem. This is a common practice in the Arab world, and possession of the enemy's wife is the most honorable, a status symbol, just like the new lion king dominating all lionesses. And these women are not all good-looking goods, most of them are from the Sheikh family of other tribes, and marriage was originally a political means in ancient times, and accepting them was partly equivalent to showing favor to those tribes.

Of course, there are also those who are shameless and unwilling to submit to the new sultan. With the help of the tribes loyal to the new sultan, the Ceylon army and marines in Hong Tao's hands can now fight wherever they want. None of the tribes had the strength to fight, not only in terms of weapons, but also in numbers.
