Chapter Seventy-Five: The Bloody List
After subduing Zhou Cang, Wenmin took him to the camp of the Beiwei Army, made him the commander of the Beiwei Army, and then asked him to upgrade the Beiwei Army to the Guards.
After subduing Zhou Cang and Xu He, it will be much easier to subdue those captives, under the appearance of the two of them, most of the captives have begun to identify themselves as villagers of Yunze Village from the heart, although their loyalty is only a little more than 60 now, but at least they have been out of the cordon of rebellion, and I believe that it will slowly improve in the future.
As for the arrangement of so many prisoners, it can make Wenmin and Hu Zhao scratch their heads, Yunze Village can only accommodate a population of 100,000 at most, and if there are more, they can't fit it, so they can only camp outside and send them food every day, and they can't engage in production or military training, so they eat and live for nothing!
In the end, it was Zhou Cang's opinion: Now that many of the Yellow Turban camps and even cities outside are almost empty, and those who are left are some old and weak and non-combatants, it is better to take down those places, and in some places, if he comes forward to surrender, he can directly subdue them without even fighting.
Wen Min listened, slapped his thigh, and suddenly realized: "Why didn't I think of it? If one territory can't fit in, we can build a few more territories! Thanks to Zhou Cang's reminder, but we still have to change it in the middle, we can't occupy it directly, otherwise those territories will not be able to continue to develop, we can destroy those territories directly, and there is a high chance that the village token will be dropped, and then we will not be able to have enough territory to settle these new villagers? It also gives us more control over the surrounding lake. “
Guo Jia agreed: "Yes, after this battle, we can start to develop externally, now we have complete population, resources, and talents, and we can quickly develop a large number of territories, at least let us have absolute control within a hundred miles around Crescent Island!" In order to increase the strategic depth, we will not directly hit our hometown like this time, and there is no way out. ”
So Wenmin asked Guo Jia to plan against the surrounding map where they needed to continue to build the territory, and he went out to let those master-level and grandmaster-level shipbuilders who surrendered first go to the Zu's shipyard to build a thousand-mile ship.
This time, almost all of them were built by master and grandmaster-level shipbuilders, and the speed was very fast, three or four ships could be built in an hour, and then he rode out to find Gan Ning on a dragon horse, telling him that the crisis in his territory had been resolved, and when the fire on the lake outside was extinguished, he could withdraw with the Jinfan army.
After returning to the territory again, he felt as if he had nothing to do, and now the civilian group under his command was very strong, and many things no longer needed to be arranged one by one as before, so he felt a lot more relaxed, and he suddenly found that this was just playing a game, enjoying the game. It's like before, you need to worry about big and small things, it's just a game to play people!
While he was wandering around, Liu Zhong came to find him, handed him a list, and said to him, "Village chief, this is the list of the dead that I have counted. ”
When Wen Min heard this, he was stunned for a moment, and then he felt hot on his face and ashamed: "I only care about rejoicing because of the victory and the benefits I have obtained, but I forget the villagers who sacrificed for the victory!" It really shouldn't be! ”
In a burst of self-blame, Wenmin turned out the list:
Total number of killed: 66,356
Total number of soldiers killed: 7,712
Beiwei Army: 539 people; 924 fierce archers; 6,249 Daming water divisions; Jin Fan Army (unknown).
Militia killed: 21,378
Number of non-combatants (physicians, architects, etc. who have not been converted into militia life NPCs) killed: 137
Number of prisoners (more than 50,000 captured at the beginning of the battle): 37,129
Looking at this bloody list of the dead, Wen Min couldn't get excited anymore, and the Beiwei Army and the Daming Water Division had lost most of them! Among them, the infantry casualties were even heavier, and less than a tenth remained; And since the fierce archers were all archers, although the casualties were slightly smaller, they also lost a third! The casualties of the militia and captives were also more than two-thirds!
In other words, after this battle, most of the old people in the original territory have gone! Thinking of this, Wenmin's heart was very heavy, if he had a choice, he would rather not have this victory, although it was just a game, but watching the people who had been by his side every day suddenly leave, he was still very uncomfortable.
I only heard him say to Liu Zhong: "Go and gather everyone in the territory, including those captives, I have something to say." Although Liu Zhong didn't know what Wenmin was going to say, he still went to summon people according to his words.
Wen Min came to the open space in front of the village, looked at Liu Zhong, Huang Zhong and his son, Sima Wei, Guo Jia, Hu Zhao and other strategists in front of him, the remaining more than 10,000 aborigines of Yunze Village, and more than 10,000 captives, but the captive soldiers who had fought side by side with the aborigines to defend the village, as well as the two million captives who were more numerous, said in a deep voice:
"From noon yesterday to just now, we in Yunze Village have experienced more than 30 hours of fierce fighting! Although we won in the end, we paid a great price, and more than two-thirds of them left us forever! Here, I would like to announce the following measures for Yunze Village:
First: We want to build an ancestral hall to worship all those who sacrificed for the territory, as long as Yunze Village is not destroyed, they will always enjoy the incense!
Second: we need to build a monument to commemorate the heroes who died bravely! Engrave their names and their deeds on the monument!
Thirdly, the parents of all the martyrs will receive lifelong support from our territory; Children can be given priority to study in the college; We will also give preferential treatment to their families!
Fourth: All the aborigines and captives who survived this battle will be awarded commemorative medals, will receive monthly subsidies from the territory, and their children will also be given priority to study in the academy. ”
When the Bunmin announced these measures, the aborigines and captives below were all excited and cheered in unison, while the captives looked very embarrassed and uncomfortable.
Then Wenmin said to these captives: "As for you new villagers, I can not blame you for your previous affairs, as long as you sincerely join us, truly agree from the bottom of your heart that you are a villager of Yunze Village, and work together to contribute to the development of Yunze Village, you can also enjoy such treatment in the future." If one day, you die tragically for the territory, you can also be enshrined in the ancestral hall, can also be engraved on the monument, and your parents, children, and relatives can get our best care! ”
Hearing Wenmin make such a promise in public, those captives were also relieved, others were desperately guarding the territory, and it was also appropriate to enjoy some preferential treatment after victory, there is no reason why the status of the captives is higher than their own people, right? As long as you will not be discriminated against in the future, you will be satisfied if you are not too harsh on yourself. So all the captives cheered in unison, looking determined to support it.
