Liu Tai successfully took Xindu, and immediately killed Wang Bin to deter the locals.

Then he led the troops to master the arsenal and granary of Xindu, asked the local family who supported Wang Bin the most, and then without saying a word, he led the troops into the dock fort, slaughtered his entire clan, and set a fire on the way, completely burning the dock fort.

To do this one thing, Liu Tai asked Zhang Bin, who was barely a local, to take the invitation to the local family clan, saying that I am very reasonable and want to talk to you, and I hope you can give Liu someone a thin face.

Zhang Bin looked at Liu Tai's orderly and neat methods, and his expression was more or less suspicious, but Zhang Bin did not refuse Liu Tai's order.

After all, he was born in Zhao County, and he has some influence in Jizhou, so if he doesn't dare to say anything else, but if he just hands over a sentence, it's not a difficult thing.

"Next, we will release the prisoners, and then sell Wang Bin and the acres of land stolen from that family in exchange for soldiers!"

Chu Yu followed Liu Tai to attack Yecheng, and knew the operation methods when Liu Tai led the troops alone and had the right to decide.

"Hmm!" Liu Tai nodded and said, "With the assistance of Mr. Chu and Jun Zuo, at least compare with the original Yecheng to be calm!" ”

When Chu Yu heard Liu Tai's words, he couldn't help but sigh: "The general's power is much greater than a few years ago. ”

Chu Yu did not persuade Liu Tai not to slaughter the wealthy families who supported Wang Bin, because Chu Yi knew very well that because Liu Tai did not want to take them by force when he appeased people's hearts, but wanted to take these families back through interest transactions.

But the problem is that Liu Tai really doesn't have anything in his hands, so naturally, so many local families certainly picked one who supported Wang Bin the most and killed him.

After all, fighting the world is not a dinner party, since you choose to stand in line, you naturally have to be conscious.

Slaughtering one by himself, the local warrior rabbit died and the fox was sad, but more fearful.

But as long as he doesn't kill indiscriminately without eyes, then the power of the entire Xindu will not backfire on Liu Tai.

To be honest, with the army in hand, if you backfire, you will backfire, but the problem is not necessary, you can completely grab the resources you need, why do you need to get to this point.

Next, Liu Tai sent his military history to pacify the captured local soldiers.

Tell them about the glorious history of the Han Dynasty, the rule of Wenjing, and the rule of filial piety during the Han Dynasty......

Then let them talk about their suffering, and speaking out will help you!

What was forcibly expropriated from the land, what was treated as a slave by the family, and what did not even have a mother-in-law......

All in all, after the military history accompanied them to talk, he told them why they were living so badly, and it was not the Sima family who was the emperor.

They themselves swore by Luoshui, but they should not have sworn as a result, and they also conspired to usurp the throne, resulting in the unjust victory of the country, and the evil is rampant, it is the demon that the country has, and the Jin court will die!

It doesn't matter if it's true or not, it doesn't matter if it's fake or not, it just matters that these soldiers who haven't read much resented Jin Ting

Of course, there must be diehards in it, but Liu Tai doesn't care, and at the same time, Liu Tai began to pay severance pay.

Liu Tai said directly, if you want to join my army, you can naturally join the army, and if you don't want to join the army, you can also leave with severance pay.

But one thing to make clear, joining my army is to leave the letter to go outside,

Therefore, some local people with families and clans basically chose to take the money and leave, rather than staying in Liu Tai's army.

Liu Tai had also expected this, so he used a large amount of five baht coins and food obtained by the raiders to put them in front of these soldiers, arranged ten groups of people to distribute them, and then generously opened the door of the prisoner camp.

Liu Taidao, "Next, you will come over one by one, and you will be able to go home after getting your severance pay, we will always welcome you!" ”

These captives stared blankly at the grain and five baht coins in Liu Tai's hands, with a bit of disbelief in their expressions.

Because they didn't expect that Liu Tai would let himself go like this, and even let himself wait for others to go home.

When the captives walked out of the barracks with money and food, they even thought that they would not survive, but they didn't expect that Liu Tai's army actually spared himself and others, and also paid himself severance pay, which is simply incredible!

In the face of Liu Tai's operation, Chu Biao did not stop it, because Chu Biao knew very well that these wealth seemed to be wealth, but in fact Liu Tai couldn't take it away.

Especially after preparing to recruit soldiers in Xindu, he will turn around and go to Yecheng to face Wang Kan.

In such a situation, it is better to use these wealth in your hands for what you do.

And Liu Tai's move has to be said first, at least one of the effects can be played, that is, when Liu Tai negotiates with other families, it will further release Liu Tai's goodwill.

A person with the power to serve as a soldier is willing to release goodwill, which is naturally the best for the local family.

Because the class of the family really relies on the rules to exist, even the worst rules are better than the reckless man who does not pay attention to the rules at all.

And Liu Tai's release of these captives itself shows that he is a rule-based person.

At most, his rules are unfamiliar to the local family, and it takes time to get used to them, but the family's ability to adapt to the rules is very strong after all.

And almost in the evening, Zhang Bin, who had gone to deliver invitations from one family to another, also came back.

He saw some captured local soldiers walking in Liu Tai's barracks, which made Zhang Bin quite puzzled, what was going on.

After all, no matter what Zhang Bin thought, he had never seen the enemy army still pay severance pay after being captured.

This made Zhang Bin lead people to the barracks quickly, but when he arrived at the location, he saw Chu Yi taking the military history to register the soldiers who were willing to stay.

After Zhang Bin saw Chu Yi, he hurriedly greeted him and said, "I don't know what happened, these captured Xindu soldiers, are they all released?" ”

"The general is generous, and he has indeed given these soldiers severance pay, and has let a large part of the soldiers leave, of course, some of the soldiers are willing to stay and join our army, about five or six hundred!" Chu Yi said, "Registering is being made!" ”

Zhang Bin looked at the scene in front of him and asked the doubts in his heart, but said:

"Isn't the general afraid that these people will be re-recruited by the Jin army, and then fight against our Han army again?"

"You can rest assured of this!" At this time, Chu Yu smiled, and then said, "Among these people who go back, there are probably two kinds, one is those who have families, and the other is those who have no families.

If you find that your family is gone, they have nothing to worry about, and I am afraid that they will come to us again.

And there are two kinds of families, one is clan, and the other is single-family.

If it's a clan or a family, haven't you already summoned the local clan to come over, and then it's time to negotiate the price.

If it is a single household, then he must have been forcibly requisitioned, so as long as there is no army to occupy Xindu in a short period of time, then he will not be forcibly requisitioned, and naturally he will not be the enemy of our army.

As for how to deal with it, that is a matter for the people who will govern Xindu in the future, and it has nothing to do with General Liu.

After all, everything has to wait until the defeat of the cavalry general Wang Kan. ”

When Zhang Bin heard Chu Yi's words, he saluted Chu Yu solemnly, and then said, "General Liu is indeed benevolent and righteous. ”

Chu Yi has become accustomed to Liu Tai's mode of operation, and even this kind of raiding the occupied areas and local families, and then decisively distributed part of the income from these raids to the soldiers, and part of it was taken out as the severance expenses of the prisoners.

Of course, the most important thing is to get the land deed from the local wealthy family, which will be used as a bargaining chip for trading with the local clan family.

And this kind of land deed in the war, handed over to the people of a single household cannot be kept, the only way to hold it is to collective strength.

At the same time, the local families, wealthy families, and powerful clans also had a tradition of slavery.

Especially in the Western Jin Dynasty, the family almost entered the peak, even when the population was counted, the slaves in the hands of the family were not counted in the normal population.

For the local family, when Liu Tai proposed to replace the field, not to mention a hundred acres of land, even ten acres of land was cost-effective.

After all, the world is in chaos now, and people are not all fleeing everywhere, and people themselves are worth a few dollars.

What they are really thinking about is whether to take advantage of this time to invest in Liu Tai himself.

For example, he directly let the literate concubines in his family join Liu Tai's army.

It's a big deal to donate more money by yourself, and you can be a low-level officer as soon as you come in, and even the master of Liu Tai's side.

Instead of coming in and being a big-headed soldier, after all, the big-headed soldier is too dangerous.

Therefore, Liu Tai was willing to come up with a proposal to replace the acres, and basically the local family agreed.

And because of an operation, the price of the field can be grasped more accurately, and even the price can be further reduced.

And the local scholars didn't feel that Liu Tai had lost himself.

They more or less understood that even if they only traded one or two people, they at least recognized Liu Tai's rule over Xindu.

If they don't obey Liu Tai, then they know very well where Liu Tai's fields come from.

Therefore, those who are willing to invest in Liu Tai will lose a few literate side branches to do military history, and if they are not willing to invest in Liu Tai, they will also follow the trend and exchange the fields with slaves, at least they will not lose money.

And Liu Tai watched these silently and didn't say much.

Because these fields can be seen as their life fields to some extent, or as ransom fields to set them free.

It doesn't matter what kind of field they are, at least recruiting these soldiers in this way can reduce their resistance.

This is very important for Liu Tai to be able to reduce his own management costs.

And those who come in this way do not say that they will not become deserters, but that the probability of becoming deserters is much smaller.

At least for Liu Tai, it basically only takes a week, and if they can adapt to it, they will basically stay.

If they can't adapt, they won't be able to return home without their families, and those who have families won't want to spit out the land they have already gotten.

On the contrary, there is food and comrades-in-arms here, and although the training is hard, it at least gives a way to survive in troubled times.

Through this method, Liu Tai recruited about 2,000 people here in Xindu, and counting Liu Tai's original army, it was directly expanded to 5,000 people.

This forced Liu Tai to dismantle the organizational structure of about 500 people and reorganize these recruits.

Of course, what really gave Liu Tai a headache was that there were not enough people in military history, the only thing to be thankful about was that the military history asked them to cultivate heirs, and now they can only let these people stand up to it first, hoping that they can practice and learn at the same time.

At the same time, Liu Tai also began to carry out basic training for these 5,000 people, physical fitness, organization, and discipline......

At this moment, Liu Tai couldn't break up a day and use it as a two-day flower, but the final result was only to let them follow the veterans in their team.

How much of a role it can play in the war, to be honest, Liu Tai doesn't know.

But such a process will eventually take place, and it is impossible for one's own army to never expand.

Now I can only believe that the way that the tun chief I established is responsible for the cultivation of military skills and the way that the military history is responsible for the ideological construction of the Han Dynasty can really play a little role, and I don't want them to play a role, as long as they don't make trouble in wartime!

It's just that God didn't give Liu Tai much time, and even less than ten days, Shi Le sent a messenger to ask for help, and Wang Kan, the general of the Jin army, had crossed the Yellow River.

Liu Tai did not hesitate, took 5,000 soldiers and set off immediately, and went directly to the location of Wei County.

This time, there was no need to travel day and night, but he rushed to Wei County as fast as possible, and Tian Yu came to Liu Tai with about a thousand soldiers.

At this moment, Tian Yu looked at Liu Tai with a little joy, and said with a little gloom:

"After Wang Kan led the army to cross the Yellow River, Ran Zhan cooperated inside, and General Shile forced outside, and the begging army was recruited by General Shile.

Now those who are willing to stay and follow the general are the only people around me! ”

"Oh!?" When Liu Tai heard this, he patted Tian Yu on the shoulder and said: "The soldiers are expensive, not too expensive, I will give you another 2,000 people, so as to find a way to disguise them as 30,000 people, make a big fanfare, and make everyone know, and I, as the vanguard, continue to join Shi Le." ”

"What does the general mean?!" Tian Yu couldn't help but feel a little puzzled.

"Reinforcements disguised as the King of Chu!" Liu Tai said in a deep voice, "I will give you the weaker army in the army, and then lead the elite to join General Shile, and when the Jin army thinks that we will wait for the army to converge before the decisive battle, we will decisively launch a decisive battle, so as to catch the other party by surprise." ”

"Tian Yu understands, Tian Yu will walk a little slower!" Tian Yu thought about it but said to Liu Tai.

Zhang Bin listened to Liu Tai's words on the side, but his expression was inevitably a little surprised.

At least in Zhang Bin's view, Liu Tai created a decisive battle opportunity almost out of nothing to improve his chances of victory as much as possible.

What a natural celebrity!

Along the way, Zhang Bin couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

Today, I don't have to wait, I will continue to repay my debts tomorrow.
