Chapter 124: Plundering the Population! Territory upgrades are coming! The second more
Under the banner of Garrad, Han Shin once again stormed a town in Ted Samahi, and the Nord warriors turned into employees of the moving company, carrying furniture and luggage to customers named Swadia.
However, they belong to the black transport, and if you don't move things for them, they will wave knives at you, telling you to come in with white knives and out with red knives.
In front of the knives of the Nord warriors, the townspeople named Leonor could only hide in the corners and shiver.
The inhabitants of Leonor prayed silently in their hearts that their lord would come to protect their lives and property, but their prayers were destined to fail.
Because both the Swedish and the Rochebas of Tyrburg had already gone to the Nord kingdom with their armies, and now Ted Samahi could no longer find anyone who could save them.
The lord of the town, Viscount Damariono, only put up a weak resistance at first, and after the Nord warriors slaughtered his soldiers, the viscount fell to his knees in fright and begged for mercy, becoming a prisoner of Han Shin and them.
This time, Han Shin and their actions were abundant, they blocked the entire town, and began to loot in an orderly manner, this time, they not only wanted things, but also people in their raiding plans.
With Han Shin's order, the Nords no longer collected the wealth themselves, but forced the inhabitants of the town with knives, telling them to take all their valuable things and go to the town square to meet.
In front of the butcher's knives of the Nords, the townspeople cried out for mercy, but this did not change their fate, and they were driven to carry the wealth that belonged to them like cattle, sheep and livestock, and embarked on an unknown journey in despair.
The mournful cries and desperate numb eyes of the residents could not shake the leader Han Xin, who was indifferent and ruthless in his eyes, and watched all this indifferently.
In his heart, war is all about robbing the other side's population, weakening the other side's war potential, and using it to enhance his own strength, which is a matter of course.
As for the looted civilians, whether they would accept such an outcome or not, that was not at all in his consideration.
Since they are weak, they must be aware and follow the life arranged for them by the strong, and that is their fate.
Han Xin's action this time did not kill on a large scale, except for killing some rebels, most of the residents of the town were taken away by him intact, and the entire Leonor town was emptied by him in one fell swoop.
By the time the news had been received, two days had passed, and Leonor had turned into an empty city that looked like a ghost domain, and the whole town was in a dead silence.
After sending men to search the city, they finally found a few survivors, and in their mouths, Garrad's name appeared, which made the old and new hatreds in Rochebas's chest welling up in his heart, and a suffocating breath blocked him almost breathlessly.
"Garrad! Yes! I will definitely take revenge for this revenge! Luo Chebas spat out a mouthful of blood in grief and shouted through gritted teeth.
Our comrade Garad, although he fought against the Swadians at Rudaburg, reaped the reputation of a victory and the resentment of Rochebas, presumably he was also bitter!
When Han Shin returned with countless loot again, Han Ji and the others were once again shocked by Han Shin's generosity, Han Shin once again emptied a small town, and even the population was packed and taken away by him.
The materials obtained from the two loots are enough for 5,000 people to live for a year, and it can be said that the city of glory no longer has to worry about supplies in the short term.
However, a new problem has arisen, and it is a big problem how to settle so many people who have suddenly been captured.
Looking at the eyes of the captive residents, there is emptiness, numbness, fear, hatred, anger, confusion, it can be said that there are any emotions.
How to resolve the dissatisfaction in their hearts, let them safely integrate into the environment of Huaguo Mountain, become a member of the territory, and contribute to the construction of the territory!
For this reason, Han Ji discussed with his subordinates all night before deciding on a method for relocating residents.
First of all, it is to reduce all the captured residents to slaves first, so that they know that their current status is captives and slaves, life and death are in the thoughts of others, and it is already a fluke to be able to live, and if they are not obedient, then they may die at any time.
Then it is to make them suffer a little, and then to scare and scare them, to put them in a state of fear and uneasiness, which can consume the courage and emotion of resistance in their hearts.
At the same time, they are given heavy work so that they are exhausted and have no extra energy to think about other things.
After they have all suffered, giving them a little sweetness and kindness can make them grateful, which is a typical manifestation of Stockholm syndrome.
For those who behaved well, make them overseers and chieftains, give them better status and living conditions, and let them supervise the work of other slaves.
In doing so, the first was to tell the Swadia slaves that if they behaved well, they could be promoted and reused, and they could be freed from the days of misery, and even be pardoned as commoners immediately.
Second, those who are promoted in this way will cherish their hard-won life now, and will be more ruthless in their former companions, able to break the resistance of the slaves, and will also be able to detect possible riots of the slaves in time.
Of course, it is also necessary to give all of them hope in life, so that they do not become numb walking dead. Han Ji promised the captured residents that as long as they behave well, they would eventually be pardoned, and this time would not exceed 5 years.
Then they will become commoners of the territory, receiving land and property like everyone else, enjoying all the benefits within the territory, their children can receive education, and good people will be elected as officials, soldiers, generals, and even nobles, which is not impossible.
Han Ji's method was good, but it would take a long time to transform these Swadian residents into his people, and before that, he would have to put a lot of effort into managing these still angry and disgruntled slaves.
To this end, the 200 soldiers who originally belonged to the territory will be stationed in the two systematic training camps in the territory to be trained, and in addition to the daily training, patrolling and supervising the slaves is their most important job.
More than half of the slaves that Han Ji first brought from Zhivading have been pardoned by Han Ji and become commoners, and their families have also followed Tursky to Huaguo Mountain.
With a wave of his hand, Han Ji pardoned those family members who had become civilians, making those people full of gratitude to Han Ji, and their loyalty to the territory was one step closer, further raising the popularity of the territory.
Tursky not only brought with him the lack of supplies for the population and some of the provinces, but also brought an update on the situation of the garrison, and at the same time, there were invitations to meet with several nobles of the Kingdom of Vegia.
These things need to be handled by Han Ji in person.
However, before that, Han Ji still has some things to deal with.
Because, not long after the arrival of Tulsky, it will be the end of the month of the system, and after this time, all the conditions for upgrading the territory have been met, and the territory is about to be upgraded to the feudal era, and the strength will further soar.
