946, Duel Yuan Gai Suwen (10)
"Let's go!" "Let me go!" "Now there is an order from the superiors, you must go to the west of the city to live, and the east of the city is temporarily under martial law!" ……
The Tang army in Anshi City began to drive those Goguryeo people to the west of the city, whether it was those who were reduced to slaves or those who were still free people, they were all driven to the west of the city. And those soldiers who received Jingwen's orders had a much better attitude towards those freemen, while those who were relegated to slavery had a very bad attitude, and they simply treated them as slaves. This made those slaves very angry in their hearts, after all, they were originally the same identity as those free people, but they helped the Goguryeo army to defend the city, and as a result, they were demoted to slaves. And those free people did not help the Goguryeo army to defend the city, which was obviously unpatriotic, but obtained the status of free people given by the Tang army. In this way, their hearts are very unbalanced, and those who are patriotic will not end well, while those who are not patriotic can enjoy good treatment.
And those slaves didn't dare to directly deal with Tang Jun, so they threw their anger on these free people who had the same status as them in the past. This is also the so-called Ah Q spirit, they think that they are like this because they are patriotic, and once the Goguryeo people fight back, then they will definitely be able to get a reward, and then clean up those traitors who betrayed the country, and then let them try their hand at being slaves. Therefore, many slaves comforted themselves in their hearts, thinking that the Goguryeo people were outside the city and would definitely fight back.
But those free people were also helpless for a while, they obviously didn't want to enjoy the treatment of this free people, but Tang Jun insisted on giving them different treatment for people of the same nationality. This not only made the slaves who were originally compatriots hate, but now they are not human inside and out. In the eyes of those slaves, they were traitors, and what would they think when the Goguryeo army returned? Did the Goguryeo army believe their justification? If they were all reduced to slaves, it would be easy to say, but now they are still doing better, and everyone else has been reduced to slaves, isn't this that you have taken refuge in the Tang Dynasty. That's why you get the preferential treatment? So now they can't speak clearly, so they even hope that the Goguryeo army will not fight back, and if the Goguryeo army fights back, then I'm afraid they won't end well.
"Hey! It's a sad day! An old man from Goguryeo suddenly sighed.
"Yes! Now I don't know if I want our army to come back, and if we do, I'm afraid we'll all be slaves. But if we follow the Tang Dynasty people, we ...... "Yes, yes, if we follow the Tang Dynasty people and betray my Goguryeo, this is also uncomfortable." "What do we do now? The 100,000 army outside the city is outside, and if our Goguryeo army comes back, then we will all have to be slaves. "We can't explain it at all right now. We can't say that we didn't deliberately want to defect to the Tang Army! ”……
The Goguryeo freedmen began to complain, but nothing could be done. And they looked at the hateful eyes of those slaves towards themselves, and they felt a little chill in their hearts, after all, they hated themselves so much, would there be any accidents. Originally, when the Tang army was stationed, those slaves didn't dare to do anything, but now the Tang army has driven them, the slaves and the free people, to the west of the city, so that they are separated, and there is no pressure from the Tang army. So will these slaves suddenly riot?
This is not impossible, because these slaves are not fuel-efficient lamps, and their hatred of the free people far exceeds the hatred of the Tang Army. After all, anyone hates traitors very much, and this is caused by the cultural situation in the East. Even Goguryeo is an oriental nation, and they all look down on traitors. So since those slaves thought that these free people were traitors, they looked down on them on the one hand, but they were very helpless on the other. After all, he was degraded to a slave by the Tang Dynasty.
But then something worse happened.
"Are you just watching those traitors eat well and dress warmly?" Suddenly, a man who looked like a slave said.
Now the Tang army has collected all kinds of daily necessities of Goguryeo slaves and distributed them uniformly. And the meals of those Goguryeo slaves were naturally very poor. Tang Jun also gave them porridge to drink, and he couldn't eat dry rice. And the food saved by these slaves drinking porridge was also distributed to the free people, and in this way, the slaves thought that these free people were exploiting them. And those free people didn't have any good ways, because the Tang army directly assigned them dry rice, not gruel, so they had to eat if they didn't eat. This has also exacerbated the contradictions between the two sides.
As for the living conditions, the freedmen had access to the better houses, they were able to live better, and they had to live in them. As for the slaves, even those who used to belong to good houses, they were now forced to live in ordinary dilapidated tents, and the conditions were very poor. Moreover, the slave had to complete the corresponding amount of work every day in order to be able to eat porridge, and if he did not finish it, he would go hungry and have to work the next day. As for the free people, they did not need to work, but they could eat dry food every day, so that they lived a very comfortable life, even more comfortably than when they were the people of Goguryeo.
After the Tang army's deliberate division of various living conditions, the Goguryeo people were forcibly divided, and the slaves hated those free people, and the free people were forced to accept the "grace" of the Tang army, but they couldn't say the bitterness in their hearts. Now these Goguryeo freemen have no way to turn back, they can only follow the Tang army, even if they didn't want to follow the Tang army, but they have been abandoned by their original compatriots, and among countless compatriots, they are already traitors, and they can't turn back. Even if they didn't do it voluntarily, what choice did they have if things had come to this point?
And it didn't take long for a sudden news to arrive, a very bad news.
"Oh no, those slaves have killed people, and some of them have killed people and robbed us of our food!" Suddenly, a Goguryeo freeman shouted.
The news caused an immediate sensation, and many freedmen and slave pairs rushed over to see what was going on and what was going on. (To be continued......)
