Chapter 67 The End of the War ([-])
The next day, strong yin.
After a night of fierce struggle, the Xianbei people finally sent representatives here again.
Wanting to live, that's all.
When people face death, they are always afraid and have a strong desire to survive.
It is human nature to pursue survival and fear death.
Even if there is a glimmer of hope, you have to give it a try, especially for the northern minorities. Going south is just an instinct for survival, although this instinct is destructive.
"People from Xianbei, please surrender."
In the hall, Liu Han sat, tapping his fingers on the table regularly while thinking about gains and losses.
If we go according to plan and wait two more days for reinforcements to arrive, we can completely kill the remaining Xianbei people. After this battle is over, there will be no major wars in the north for at least three years in the future. This is in line with Liu Han's plan.
But if there is killing, there will be casualties. Now that these people are asking for surrender, it means that no more sons will be killed. If they refuse the Xianbei people to surrender, then the Xianbei people will definitely be driven crazy, and it will be an extremely brutal battle. Just like the cavalry yesterday.
The clay figurine still has a bad temper, let alone the Xianbei people who are trapped beasts and are still fighting. This is not worth it.
However, tens of thousands of people in Xianbei surrendered, what should be done? Killed all? It is estimated that the old gangsters in the court will talk about themselves to death.
do not kill?
keep for what?
Waste food.
Moreover, the Han people in the north have an innate hatred for the Xianbei people, and it is impossible for the two ethnic groups to live in peace at present.
Headache!
Not only that, the aliens are inherently tough and will strike with a knife if they disagree, making them difficult to manage.
"My lord, are you worried about Xianbei?"
"Zhicai? Why are you here?"
Not only did Xi Zhicai come, but Ding Yuan's [-] Bingzhou army also rushed to Qiangyin.
"I just entered the city today. I heard Old General Duan talk about this on the way here. Why does my lord hesitate?"
Liu Han told everything about his thoughts. After Xi Zhicai heard this, he did not answer immediately. Instead, he pondered for a while and said: "My lord, Zhong has a plan. Since Tan Shihuai has escaped, whether it is for his own prestige or Xianbei The integration of the Xianbei tribe will definitely lead to another invasion in the future. The policy of our dynasty towards the grassland has always been to win over and divide. If these Xianbei tribe leaders who were thought to be dead are put back, just because Tanshihuai refuses to save him this time, the grassland will definitely be destroyed. It will divide again.”
Liu Han heard Xi Zhicai's suggestion and thought silently, "That's right."
In the future, the Han Dynasty will also experience some internal turmoil. Therefore, for the Han Dynasty, a chaotic grassland is far more beneficial than a Northern Alliance. If these people are allowed to go back, then Tanshihuai's many years of operation may be destroyed in one day.
It is conceivable that the grassland in the future will be war-torn and bloody.
"We can't just let them go back so easily, otherwise they won't have any respect or fear for my big man."
Liu Han followed Xi Zhicai's train of thought and continued: "Divide people into the following categories: Those who are seriously injured and unable to move, kill them. After all, they are not the sons of the Han family, so it is not worth it. Among the remaining people, except for those who went south this time, as long as there are those who went south to kill the Han people, kill them. Such people cannot be kept, no Killing is not enough to anger the common people, nor is it enough to comfort the Han people who died in vain;
For those leaders who have wealth, let them write letters, send people to redeem them, and clearly mark the price. I need the Han slaves, war horses and treasures in their hands. "
"My Lord. Wise."
Originally, Xi Zhicai really wanted to say that the lord was really greedy, but he still held back.
All I can say is that he is truly a brother of His Majesty, and he also likes the smell of copper.
However, the lord's method of making money is very novel and very shameless.
From ancient times to the present, I have never seen anyone redeem someone with money after a battle between the two armies. My lord is truly the first of his kind in coupled with the poems written by the lord two days ago, Xi Zhicai sometimes really doubted whether his lord had a special hobby, or maybe the lord was a bandit in disguise.
The bandits were willing to surrender to this robbery method.
He was able to influence the prisoner's ideas! "Zhicai, why are you staring at me like that?"
Xi Zhicai's probing gaze gave Liu Han goosebumps, "I don't have a habit of cutting off my sleeves."
"Lord, stop talking nonsense!"
Xi Zhicai was also annoyed. He was indeed a little rude just now, but he was definitely not like that! "If today's words spread and Zhicai cannot find his beloved, my lord, you will be fully responsible!"
"Hahahahahaha!"
At this time, Liu Han remembered that in order to recuperate, Xi Zhi had to stay in seclusion for three years, and couldn't help but laugh.
Suddenly, the hall was buzzing with excitement.
"My lord, a scholar may be killed but not humiliated."
"Zhicai, I'm sorry. Normally I don't laugh, pfft! I didn't laugh just now, pfft! I'm sorry, I really couldn't hold it back."
"."
# After a while of fighting, it wasn't until Duan Qiao came in that the two of them sat down again.
After hearing Liu Han's plan, Duan Juan just asked aloud: "My lord, if this is the case, how should we manage the remaining Xianbei people?"
"This"
Only then did Xi Zhi remember that the Xianbei people would only redeem the nobles at most, but as for the ordinary herdsmen...hehe, no one cared about their life or death.
Perhaps it would be best for them to die, because if one more person is alive, one more person will be given an extra share of food rations.
"I had some thoughts on this just now. As the saying goes, 'If you want to be rich, build roads first.' Every time I have a project, I will make the people do corvee work. Although this will save the court a lot of costs, it will delay many families. I want to encourage farmers to teach mulberry trees, and I want to use these Xianbei people to build roads between counties within the state."
In response, Duan Juan and Xi Zhicai both nodded. In their eyes, these Xianbei people were not considered human beings, so they could use whatever they wanted.
"But how to manage it in case of a riot?"
You must know that this is a foreign race that can kill with a knife. Once a riot breaks out, it will be a terrifying force.
"I have one or two ideas. You two might as well give me some help. First of all, when selecting management representatives among these Xianbei people, we should choose people who have a low status in Xianbei. Life in Xianbei is not easy. It’s not good, they are bullied and excluded everywhere. If they gain power, they have the opportunity to trample those who were above them before.”
Liu Han did not continue what he said, but Duan Juan and Xi Zhicai already understood in their hearts.
Do not suffer from widowhood but suffer from inequity!
This is tantamount to opening a big hole in the originally united Xianbei prisoners.
The protagonist's ability to understand human nature is really terrifying. He can hit the point with just one sentence. Is this really just a 14-year-old child?
Although Duan Juan and Xi Zhicai were shocked by Liu Han's methods and wisdom more than once, they were still convinced.
Fortunately, he is his own lord.
Fortunately, he is good enough.
If he were his enemy, he might be tortured to death.
Because many times, what Liu Han plays psychologically is conspiracy. You know clearly that this is his trap, but you have to jump.
(Please vote, please!)
