"Zilong, even without our policy, what do you think will be the fate of these landless peasants? Perhaps, there will inevitably be misfortunes in this process, and there will be tragic deaths of the old and weak, but more people have survived because of this, and can come to live and work in peace and contentment under our lord's rule, Zilong, is there a perfect thing in the world? There will always be people who will be sacrificed and abandoned, not because we want to harm others, but because we can't save everyone. ”

Chen Keng sighed and explained slowly, how could he not think of these things, it's just the lesser of two evils, and he is also considered good governance, who has a way to avoid the loss?

The so-called 'Xing, the people suffer, forget, the people suffer' is fundamentally because the people's ability is too small, and they are simply unable to resist the changes imposed on them, as well as the harm brought about by these changes, which is the inherent attribute of the people at the bottom, and it is meaningless if they blindly rely on compassion to be the savior.

There is a lyric in the Internationale, 'There has never been a savior, you can only rely on yourself to be free', so it is useless to look at the people pitifully, but the people also have something to hate, if you want to change, you need to work hard, and it is useless to rely on others.

Zhao Yun is not old and stubborn, but Zhao Yun, who was born from the grassroots, naturally has a deep affection for civilians, and he also has a chivalrous and soft intestine in his body, he lowered his head and groaned for a while, Zhao Yun raised his head and looked at Fang Zhiwen with shining eyes.

"The Lord"

Fang Zhiwen stood up suddenly, and all the generals also stood up together, Fang Zhiwen had a solemn look on his face, and said solemnly:

"Needless to say, I understand. Command. Zilong led 2,000 cavalry to land in Qingdao and Hebei, and was responsible for negotiating with local forces on human trafficking matters, with Sun Ming as his adjutant and Zhiran in charge of logistics coordination. Fu Xi was going to go with me to Changshan Island to build a city, Tian Yu was in charge of the cavalry in Lenan, Zhen Yao was in charge of government affairs and materials for building the city, and Yuan Qing was left to temporarily take charge of the defense of Lenan City. ”

"No...... Zhou Tai's navy is still very weak, however, this weakness is relative to Fang Zhiwen's strong cavalry strength, and. This time the attack on Changshan Island, there are four thousand elite commandos to help the battle, after the sea engagement, the landing battle is completed by cavalry, once these pirates are attacked by Zhou Tai on land, in front of the elite commando, it is definitely a piece of cake.

If Fang Zhiwen wants to capture more prisoners in every battle, it will definitely be a one-sided slaughter, and the only thing that is more interesting is the scene of the naval battle, commanded by Zhou Tai, a naval general. Although some losses were inevitable, the overall result was satisfactory, and those losses were quickly recouped after the battle, whether it was captured ships, or the gold and silver materials hidden in the pirates' dens.

Zhou Tai's strategy is to clear the surrounding islands first. Finally, hit Oshima. These big islands include Qin Island, Montenegro, and Changshan Island in the north and south, among which there are administrative villages on Nanchangshan Island and Heishan Island, which are under the jurisdiction of Huang County, Donglai County, and Fang Zhiwen will naturally not extend his influence directly to Donglai County. In that case, it won't look good in the official face.

Fang Zhiwen's chosen target was Chin Island. And Zhou Tai's purpose in sweeping the surrounding islands was to force the pirates together as much as possible, and then the pirates really misjudged the situation and tried to rely on the advantage of numbers to fight a land war, who knew that it was not difficult to lure Zhou Tai to the island at all, the question was why Zhou Tai's fleet had thousands of cavalry, this time it was really a wolf into the house!

You will not live!

Qin Island is located in the middle of the Bohai Sea estuary, it is the key place to get stuck in and out of the Bohai Sea, there was originally a large pirate force here, more than 5,000 pirates who can fight, the size of the sea ship is nearly 200, plus the small pirates gathered around later, not very big Qin Island, gathered more than 20,000 pirates, unfortunately, by Fang Zhiwen's strong troops landing, are blocked on the island, more than half of the dead surrendered a small half, Zhou Tai this time a bumper harvest, not only captured hundreds of ships, but also nearly 10,000 prisoners, These are good sailors!

After the battle, Zhou Tai was smiling so much that he couldn't see his eyes, while Fang Zhiwen didn't know whether to be happy or depressed and looked at these beautifully dressed teenagers and children in front of him, these were all meat tickets, kidnapped by the pirates, but now they have become Fang Zhiwen's trophies.

These children should have some identity, looking at their AI is generally very high, basically the level of normal people, which shows that these children are likely to have great backgrounds, there are two ways in front of Fang Zhiwen, one is to continue the unfinished business of pirates, continue to blackmail the families of these children, it is estimated that the families of these children are all big families or families in Hebei and Qingzhou, and these people have money in their families!

Another way, naturally, is to use these children to have a good relationship with those big families and clans, so that the power of Fengning County, or the current power of Qindao, will slowly infiltrate into Qing and Jizhou.

Chen Keng saw that the situation was not good, and under the pretext of starting to build the city, he quickly ran away to avoid this troublesome matter, to be honest, the Chen family was originally a small family in Qingzhou, Chen Keng was not willing to get involved in this matter, anyway, it was not pleasing to the left and right.

Fang Zhiwen looked at a few people around him, Zhen Xiang needless to say, Zhou Tai, there are still many things to be busy, looking at the fragrance of these children with interest, Fang Zhiwen slightly curled the corners of his mouth.

"Xiangxiang...... Well? Brother, what's the matter? ”

"I'll give you a mission."

"Okay, what a task." Looking at Xiangxiang's excited eyes and full of enthusiasm, Fang Zhiwen, who was still calculating his sister just now, was very ashamed.

"What, help my brother find out where these children come from, their true identities, and their main kinship, and when they came here, and why they came here, okay?"

"Guaranteed to get the job done, hee-hee."

This kind of thing is a piece of cake for Xiangxiang, Xiangxiang thinks that she has a talent for communicating with the aborigines, especially with the children of the aborigines, even Fang Zhiwen has to admit that Xiao Ning, who has often been active with Xiangxiang recently, and Zhao Yun's sister Zhao Xian also have to admit that she is even a little jealous of Xiangxiang's transcendent status among the aborigines of Miyun City.

Soon a new village based on the original pirate port appeared, this new town named Longmen Village will be the Longmen at the entrance and exit of the Bohai Sea in the future, although the name is a bit spoofed, but Fang Zhiwen feels that it is still appropriate.

was busy building the village with Chen Keng, Xiangxiang came back with a happy face, and the task of asking these half-grown children was very simple, not to mention that Xiangxiang also had a super high degree of implicit aboriginal favorability, and these half-old children were not wary, and Xiangxiang quickly got very detailed information.

"Jizhou Xin's family, Chen, Han, Zhang, and Gao's almost some famous families have been wiped out, what is the origin of this pirate? But it's also strange that although these children are the children of the family's lineage, none of them are important and irreplaceable, or are the children who are focused on by the family, and they are not robbed, they are sent here. Judging by their treatment, it shouldn't be like a prisoner, but more like a guest...... Fang Zhiwen looked at the information obtained by Xiangxiang inquiry, the information had been sorted out, and it was made into a table by Xiangxiang, which was clear at a glance. Almost all the children in Jizhou were sent, and a few in Qingzhou were really kidnapped, which is strange no matter how you look at it.

invited Chen Keng to study it together, Chen Keng didn't have a clue, but he felt that this matter was likely to have something to do with Jizhou, and these children were more like a kind of proton.

Chen Keng's words reminded Fang Zhiwen that Chen Keng didn't know what the future of Jizhou was like in history, but Fang Zhiwen knew that if these people were protons, then those who dared to pledge these people were either Taiping Dao or the Yuan family, but Fang Zhiwen had no way to say this, he couldn't say that he knew the development of history.

However, he can't say it, but he can borrow someone else's mouth to say it, Fang Zhiwen asked Xiangxiang and a few young people from the staff to speculate on the ins and outs of this matter, and on the other hand, he wrote a letter to Li Xueyin, telling her the strange things about the discovery of a group of children on the island, and asking her what she thinks.

Before waiting for someone to uncover the truth for him, Fang Zhiwen began to think about how to deal with this matter, even if he knew that Zhang Jiao of Taiping Dao or someone from the Yuan family did it, now that these children are in his hands, there is undoubtedly no value, the key is that these children themselves have no value, and Fang Zhiwen has no use for holding these children.

On the contrary, because Fang Zhiwen broke through this matter, it caused a commotion, if the Taiping Dao forces were better, because Fang Zhiwen had reached a tacit understanding with the Taiping Dao side through Zhao Ai'er before, if these children were the bargaining chips in the hands of the Taiping Dao, they would be directly returned to the Taiping Dao, anyway, the Taiping Dao side also knew that Fang Zhiwen knew their plans, so this matter was nothing.

But if this matter is the Yuan family's matter, it is difficult to say, after all, Fang Zhiwen has no friendship with the Yuan family, and the reason why the Yuan family got these children into this pirate den is obviously to get rid of the involvement. If Fang Zhiwen returns these children to the Jizhou family, he will not be able to get a little goodwill, on the contrary, he will make the Yuan family hate, if they are returned to the Yuan family, the Yuan family will definitely not come forward to accept it, if they continue to detain these children, but they will greatly offend the Jizhou family, these children will not be kept, and they will not be able to throw them out, and they will really become a hot potato.

After thinking about it for a long time, Fang Zhiwen didn't know the essentials, so he had to put this problem down for the time being, in fact, no matter who these children were, Fang Zhiwen took Qin Island and expanded the naval power in the Bohai Sea, in fact, he was already on the same page as the forces behind these pirates, and in the long run, on the surface of the Bohai Sea, Fang Zhiwen wanted to speak, and sooner or later he would have to fight with these forces, no matter who he was behind him, could it be that Fang Zhiwen, who fought out of the sea of corpses and blood with a knife and a gun, was not able to do it.
