Torches stacked on top of each other and firewood were lit into bonfires, and the flames illuminated the entire barracks.

In front of Wang Yue, who came out of the tent, there were 2,000 Huaishang soldiers who were arranged in an extremely neat manner, the sharpness of the javelins, the cold glow of the blades and the firelight, enveloping the members of the Ji family and a group of samurai who had been captured in the Jidi military chariot.

Wang Yue's gaze swept over the innermost part of the samurai, a group of women and children were trembling, in addition to children, there were even some babies, who opened their mouths wide and wanted to cry, but the woman holding them covered their mouths, for fear that a cry would disturb his good mood, so he made something unacceptable.

"The general is in front of him, and he still doesn't kneel. On the side, Zhao Wu shouted downward.

Without any hesitation, all the captives knelt down, but there was one person in the queue, who bowed to Wang Yue after kneeling, and said: "Ji Ying of the Ji family, meet the general, and ask the general to treat me and the warriors with courtesy." ”

Wang Yue was noncommittal, and asked Shendao: "According to the Cheng ceremony, how should the first-class prisoners of doctors and samurai be disposed of?"

Shen Zhi arched his hand and said: "According to the ceremony, if the princes and doctors have captured members of the local doctor's family and samurai in the battle, as long as the captives do not make any moves that threaten the army, our army should guard and treat them well, so that their families or enemy princes and doctors can redeem them with money." ”

"What if there is no one to redeem it?"

Shen Zhi said solemnly: "There is no redeemer, it is disposed of by the prince himself, and according to the custom, he is usually reduced to slavery." ”

Wang Yue nodded and said to the bottom: "You are all family members of doctors or samurai, and you must be well aware of this ideal. ”

"Yes. Ji Yingken said: "Please also ask the prince to send a message to inform the head of my family of this matter, and the head of the family will definitely take money to ransom people when he hears it, and during this period, we can guarantee that we will never make any moves that threaten the army of the son." ”

Wang Yue said to Shen Dao: "They all expect Dr. Jiyi to redeem people, but I don't know that Dr. Jiyi will not be able to protect himself soon, either he will die in the battle, or he will be captured by our army, who else will be redeemed at that time?"

He said, "Since there is no one to redeem you, then you will all be reduced to slavery." ”

The members of the Ji clan and the samurai below were in an uproar, Wang Yue actually wanted to demote them from noble samurai and scribes to slaves, how could this kind of thing be acceptable, Ji Ying was even more angry, and reprimanded: "The general must not be like this. ”

"Today, you don't treat my Ji clan like this, have you ever thought that in the future, maybe the army will be defeated, and how my Ji clan will treat you?"

Wang Yue ignored him and asked, "What if he refuses to be a slave?"

"Kill it. Shen Zhi said coldly.

The atmosphere of the scene was suddenly cold, it was obviously a hot summer, but for the Ji clan and the warriors below, it was like being in the cold winter, and even the warriors and scribes who came over on the side already felt that something was wrong at this time.

A few particularly clever scribes were already trembling.

Wang Yue's gaze suddenly turned to them, and he said coldly: "The Ji family refuses to be slaves, and they dare to question and even threaten this general, and they should be killed according to the etiquette, but which gentleman is willing to kill this fang for this general?"

Ji Yingmeng realized something, stood up from the ground, and said, "Snake Yu Gongzi, you will regret doing this in the future." ”

Seeing that the defectors were silent, Wang Yue's face suddenly turned cold: "What? Everyone keeps saying that they are willing to work for this son, but they are not even willing to do this little thing for this little thing? Do you want to be with them?"

"You?" Wang Yue pointed to the trembling scribe and said sharply, "Draw your sword." ”

"Me. The scribe was so agitated that his legs and feet went limp, and he fell to the ground.

At this moment, other samurai may still have something to understand, but how could such a smart person as him not know?

Like this kind of thing, they are really forced to helpless self-preservation, whoever is strong, they will wave the flag and line up to welcome, today the Huai army comes, they surrender to serve, tomorrow Cai Guo and Jidi military vehicles come back, they are the same to surrender to serve.

Anyway, no matter who rules this land, they are needed to do things.

But now what does Wang Yue want him to do?

If he wants to kill the people of the Ji family, once he kills them, in the future, Cai Guo and the people of the Ji family will fight back, can he still switch sides again, there is no turning back for this killing, no matter what happens, he can only serve Wang Yue to the end.

"Zhao Wu, confiscate all the property of this scribe and reduce him and his family to slavery. ”

"No, Childe. Hearing this, the scribe hurriedly got up from the ground: "I'll kill, I'll kill the son." ”

He was still trembling, and his hand holding the sword was unsteady, but his eyes were full of cold light, and he walked towards Ji Ying step by step.

Seeing him approaching step by step, Ji Ying's whole body bowed.

Wang Yue signaled, and Zhao Wu rushed over and raised his hand to press him to the ground.

"Snake Yu Gongzi, you will definitely regret it. Ji Ying struggled several times and couldn't move, so she could only grit her teeth and stare at Wang Yue fiercely.

"Brush", the scribe stabbed the sword into his body, because the hand holding the sword trembled, the sword failed to stab the vital point, only cut the flesh, he pulled out the sword again, and was about to continue to stab down, Wang Yue shook his head, Zhao Wu immediately pulled Ji Ying away.

"Enough. Wang Yue said lightly, and then looked at the other defectors, and immediately there was a commotion, the scribe both took out his sword in public, made a murderous move, and made his position clear, it was okay to kill or not, and then it was their turn to be a group of people.

"I, I'm willing to cut this fang for my son. ”

A samurai strode out, and the others, you look at me, I look at you, and they all know that the situation today is unbearable, and if they don't want to be disrespected and reduced to slavery along with their families, they can only do this, so they stand up one after another.

Seeing such a terrifying situation, the people of the Ji clan no longer dared to grasp the identity of the doctor's clan, and under the drastic change in their faces, they all kowtowed their heads one by one, and said in a loud voice: "The general is angry, the general is angry, this is an offense by Ji Ying alone, not my entire Ji clan, we are all willing to be slaves." ”

"Yes, we all want to be slaves. The rest of the people chimed in.

They all said so, but Wang Yue saw forbearance in their eyes, and even more anger towards the scribes and warriors of Toucheng, they didn't need to think about it to know what their intentions were, but they just wanted to endure it for the time being, and then turn over when the Cai army and the Jiyi doctor came back.

The scribes and warriors who surrendered to Cheng breathed a sigh of relief, if the Ji clan was willing to be slaves, then Wang Yue would have no reason to kill them.

In other words, they don't have to do anything? In this way, although they stood up and made their stand, after all, they did not kill anyone, and in the future, when Cai Guo and the Ji clan military vehicles returned, they could still say clearly, and at most they would pay a greater price.

Wang Yue secretly looked at them and said: "Since you are slaves, you should be slaves, from today on, our army has set up a slave labor team, and the slaves are all filled by all members of the Ji family and the samurai and their families who refuse to surrender to our army. ”

"The men of the slave labor team are responsible for the repair of road traffic and the dredging of water conservancy and irrigation in various places. ”

"Women are responsible for washing and washing quilts for our army, and if they have other talents, they can also be used accordingly. ”

"As for the caretaker of the organization. Wang Yue smiled and said to the scribes and warriors of Toucheng: "It is up to you and others to take charge, you must not slack off, you must complete the arranged fortifications on time, and you must not let them run away, otherwise they should be dealt with as collaborators." ”

The defectors who were relieved instantly turned into bitter gourd faces, but they heard Wang Yue continue:

"A samurai in the slave laborers, if anyone who discovers that anyone around him wants to escape or plans to escape, and does not report it but is found to be verified, the whole family will be killed, and if someone in the same team escapes successfully, the whole team will be killed, and if the report is made in the knowing, the whole family can be exempted from the status of slaves, and he will be promoted to the steward of the slave labor team. ”

The warriors who were about to become members of the slave labor team were in an instant, their eyes flickered, and they looked at the people around them with distrust, and they were even more vigilant, some of them planned to escape but were worried about being informed, and some were wary of those who escaped from the same team.

"General, you can take this seriously. "One of the samurai seems to have no faith.

Wang Yue pointed to Ji Ying, who was pressed to the ground, and said: "Since you don't believe it, then Ben Gongzi will give you a chance to make meritorious contributions, this Ji Ying offends this Gongzi, you and I kill him, you can make this merit, and you are no longer a slave, you can be with them." ”

The samurai was overjoyed, and said that he was willing to kill, Wang Yue had nothing to do with it, and later someone loosened the tie for him, handed over the long sword, and he hurriedly ran to kill Ji Ying on the spot with a sword, and got rid of the identity of slave labor, and this example caused the hearts of other samurai to float.

Wang Yue said again: "All the captured warriors, but those who are willing to serve the force of this son, can be the slaves of the army under my command, and their system and slave labor camps, etc., but if they can make meritorious contributions in the future with the enemy, they can be exempted from the status of slaves, and they can even be transferred to join my army and enjoy the treatment of sergeants." ”

Except for a small number of people, almost all the samurai breathed a sigh of relief.

Rather than working like slaves, they were more willing to go to the battlefield to kill people and make meritorious contributions, so everyone immediately prepared to become military slaves, and finally only a group of people from the Ji clan and a few die-hard scribes and samurai were left in the field.

After arranging all this properly, Wang Yue arched his hand to the defectors and said: "Everything in the slave labor team is entrusted to you, you must not slack off, only if you do this well, you will be my own people of the snake Yu family, and you can reuse it in the future, do you understand?"

"No. "Everyone has the strength to respond to the promise, how can there be any passion when they come.

Just looking at the situation, most of the samurai in the slave labor team ran away, almost all of them were from the Ji clan.

There is no doubt that as the Huai army occupies the land of Ji, there will be more people of the Ji clan who will be handed over to them.

At that time, Wang Yue only needs to set the task under the arrangement a little bit of the complicated focus, and the matter can be imagined, if it can't be completed, it will have to eat Wang Yue's leader, if it is completed, it is bound to be the Ji family, a group of nobles who used to be high, really slaves...

This is more hated than the person who killed the Ji clan.

"What's your name?" Wang Yue asked the scribe who was the first to do something to Ji Ying, this person was the first to understand his intentions, but he had a bit of intelligence, and he was rarely a person who was very easy to yield, and then he had already made a ruthless move on Ji Ying, and he had determined his position very clearly, but he was a usable person.

"The villain's name is Nan Guo Chuwen. Nan Guo Chuwen cried with a sad face, only to say that Wang Yue wanted to make some powerful moths, and specially picked him.

"Nan Guo Chuwen. Wang Yue bowed his head and said: "My son saw that you have some talent, and today he took the lead in making a move against Ji Ying, but it is also meritorious, the head of the slave labor team will be filled by you, and all the stewards will be selected by you personally." ”

"As long as this thing is done well, my snake family will be reused in the future to restore the country. ”

"No!" Nan Guo Chuwen's crying face disappeared immediately, and he bowed down to promise, a smart person like him is the most knowledgeable about current affairs, and now that he has completely broken with the Ji clan and stood on Wang Yue's side, he can only do his best to earn a future for Wang Yue.

The leader of the slave labor team, but he is in charge of the whole group of defectors like him, so the starting point is much higher than them.

"Childe's methods are really wonderful. After everyone dispersed, Shen Zhi smiled.

Wang Yue nodded and said: "It seems that this kind of surrender personnel have their talents in both literature and martial arts, if they are not used, it is a pity, and if they are used, they will be unstable." ”

"In the future, my laws will be implemented, and the actual city will be changed to a virtual city, although it will not damage its benefits, but it will damage its governing power, so it is better to adjust it several times, and then completely cut off other roads and then assess it for the good side.
