Chapter 40: The Mantis Arm as a Car
Anxious and nervous voices revealed their panic.
One can imagine how desperate these people were.
It was not easy to sacrifice more than 30,000 people in exchange for the guarantee of force, but it turned out that he had made a wedding dress for someone else.
For this reason, they not only deceived their own people, but also pressed all their status, power base, and even their lives. Such a price is not insignificant, but at this moment, the disappearance of Hu Yan Gujin and the extra strangers in front of him have proved a little fact, everyone, including Da Wu Zhu, has been completely tricked. All their previous expectations, as well as their future, have been disappointed.
If it weren't for the glimmer of hope in his heart, maybe Hu Yan Gujin was just joking with them, and the group of people who had lost their last support would probably be paralyzed on the ground now.
It's so desperate.
Looking at the expressions on these guys' faces, Nanshan couldn't help but blink evilly.
"Guess?"
Well, no kidding.
The reason why he is only doing it now, in addition to ensuring that he will not let go of one, is mainly to completely break down the psychological defense line of these people.
If you want to establish a stable power in the steppe, the population is very important.
If there is not enough male and female numbers as a basis for reproduction, even if you can occupy it for a while, you will not be able to occupy it for a lifetime. After all, modern weapons run out one day, and if they can't use the new population to exercise complete control over the occupied areas, sooner or later, they will be wiped out by the endless stream of grassland tribes. Just like those things that happened in history, during the period when they were obviously strong, the Han people in the Central Plains had already driven the Hu people out, and when they declined, they came back again.
Not only did they reoccupy the territory they had lost, but they also continued to grow and develop themselves through the technology and advanced systems of the Han people who remained on the grassland, from the Xiongnu to the Khitan, from Mongolia to the Jurchens, these ignorant, backward and unproductive Hu people became stronger and stronger each time, and each time they were closer to the technical strength of the Han people in the Central Plains.
Precisely the majority of the tens of thousands of freed slaves were men, and women accounted for only a very small part, less than a tenth.
If this is not addressed, let alone the distant future, the problem of just having too many single dogs will create a lot of trouble.
You know, this is not a modern society, there are so many educational films and adult products that can meet and replace the instinctive needs between men and women, no matter how many single dogs there are, they will only go to the Internet to vent. In ancient times, when inheritance was the top priority, if the physical and psychological problems were not alleviated, they would rebel in serious cases!
In order to maintain the stability of his power, he must find a large number of suitable female population sources for his soldiers.
And these Wuhuan people gathered here have already taken a fancy to him.
As grassland people with an average life expectancy of only twenty or thirty years old, large-scale entertainment celebrations such as the selection of warriors also represent the best place for the opposite sex to get along, and those who can come to participate are basically young people. He noticed that the vast majority of those who survived were men and women in their teens who were suitable for marriage. Obviously, these leaders are not stupid, and those who are sent to sacrifice account for a large part of the old and frail.
As long as they can force these Wuhuan people to surrender, they can have 20,000 or 30,000 more young women, which greatly alleviates the pressure of the disparity between men and women.
As for those men, Nanshan doesn't plan to kill them all for the time being.
After all, if he wants to survive in a place as complicated as the grassland, a small force like him, with a population of less than 100,000, must implement a planned system of all soldiers, and in addition to fighting, a large number of laborers are needed for production.
So, he has already figured out how to deal with these people. Labor reform and brainwashing education go hand in hand, anyway, they are not very old, and their three views are not mature, as long as it takes a certain amount of time to reform, their thinking and behavior can be completely reversed. Originating from a certain party's housekeeping skills -- the transformation of ideological weapons is not just a joke. During the War of Liberation, it can be said that it is a unique miracle in the history of warfare that it was able to transform all the more than 1.8 million national troops that were incorporated and conquered the whole of China in just a few years with a disparity of 3.4 troops.
It is also an atonement for their own identity.
Because of historical terms like Wuhuan, Nanshan is not ready to stay, just like the people, clans, great, integration, and integration that have happened countless times in subsequent history, these people will be completely integrated into the Han people.
It's just that this time it's no longer in a passive way, but actively killing adult males of all races, leaving only those underage women who are suitable for marriage. In this way, as long as about two or three generations have passed, there will be no more concept of Hu people. Everyone has the impression that the grassland will become the territory of the Han people since ancient times.
Of course, this process will be very bloody and cruel, and millions of people may die at one time, but the long pain is better than the short pain, compared to the mutual hatred and killing that lasts for thousands of years, this temporary little pain is undoubtedly necessary.
It's a pity that not everyone can understand this advanced concept that conforms to the law of historical development.
Immediately after the idea or plan was fully explained, some people jumped out of the tent and tried in vain to use their mantis arms as a car and become sinners who hindered the harmony of the people.
"You cannibal demon, I won't let your plan succeed!"
"That's right, even if you fight for the death of all of you, you won't let this demon who devoured the lives of more than 30,000 of our clans occupy this place!"
Looking at these extremely hateful eyes, Nanshan had to admit that their courage was commendable.
You must know that before, in front of these people, he tore apart several tribal leaders with the same identity as them little by little, coupled with the momentum he is deliberately unleashing now, as well as the innate suppression from the bloodline, he obviously even looked reluctant to stand up, but he still straightened his chest.
Even as an enemy, Nanshan couldn't help but applaud softly for their performance.
Bang bang bang
"You guys really have the backbone to say something like this in front of me"
However, it is a pity that there are only a few people who are so brave and fearless, and more people who have been crushed by despair and are lying on their knees. Nanshan knows very well that if you want to survive in the grassland, the first thing is to follow the law of the jungle, and they are more likely to compromise in the face of death than the strong who can decide their fate by disobedience.
