The useless daughter-in-law is going to turn the world upside down

Chapter 518
Zhou Haiyang replied as a matter of course: "Kill them all."

"Kill it?" Shangguan Ruoli frowned, "Isn't that good?"

Zhou Haiyang disagreed and said: "Is it possible that they are still being raised? They are from Beiling, and they will never be of the same mind as us Dongming people. This will bury disaster."

Dongming Ziyu saw Shangguan Ruoli's frown tightened, and asked softly, "Does Li'er have any ideas?"

Shangguan Ruoli said: "I don't think these captives can be killed. After killing them, who will surrender? No matter what happens, they will die. It will only provoke the enemy to fight back even more frantically."

Zhou Haiyang also frowned, "Could it be possible to let them go? Isn't that letting the tiger go back to the mountain?"

Shangguan Ruoli asked rhetorically: "If we treat these captives preferentially, do you think more Beiling soldiers will surrender when we attack the remaining two cities? They have no food now, and it is possible that they will take the initiative to join us for food. .”

Zhou Haiyang was silent, and Mo Wen and Mo Xiang also glanced at each other.

Under normal circumstances, the captives were killed to frighten the enemy's army, or sent to the official mine to mine or dig coal.

Dongming Ziyu asked thoughtfully, "How about preferential treatment?"

Shangguan Ruoli said: "If you don't want to stay, give them some money and let them go home. Those who are willing to stay will be treated the same as our soldiers. If you are afraid that they will become special workers, you can let them cultivate farmland, or feed them. Pigs raise horses, or go to work in workshops. Of course, in order to win people's hearts, they must be treated equally and paid the same wages. Raising soldiers with soldiers includes captives, this is all strong labor."

The policy of using soldiers to raise soldiers is still in the initial stage of implementation, and has not yet been implemented to the border, and Zhou Haiyang has only heard some rumors.

Zhou Haiyang excitedly said: "In that case, I'm afraid they will be forced to go back to Beiling, and they won't go back either!"

Shangguan Ruoli said: "We looked along the way, and there are few people here. Although the soil has been frozen for a long time, it is all fertile black soil. After reclamation, the crop yield is not small even if it is planted for one season."

There is such a scene in everyone's mind: the endless wasteland, slowly, slowly, becomes the boundless green cropland.

Dongming Ziyu came back to his senses first, and said, "Stop all the prisoners."

Zhou Haiyang also came back to his senses suddenly, and shouted: "Quick, quick, stop the prisoner!"

The secret guards had already done it, and the captives thought they were dead, but they were brought back again, with expressions of surprise on their faces.

Shangguan Ruoli looked at their thin cotton-padded clothes and disheveled faces, and said, "Give them a warm meal first."

Food for more than 500 people, their food is not very sufficient.Although Zhou Haiyang felt distressed, but seeing that Dongming Ziyu didn't say anything, he still asked people to follow suit.

How can I return the food?The captives looked at each other, not knowing what was going on, but they were satisfied to have a full meal and go on the road.

Mo Wen cleared his throat, and said: "Our lord has a kind heart and treats the prisoners well, and wants to give you a way to survive."

The captives showed unbelievable expressions, but their eyes were still bright, and there was a glimmer of hope in their hearts.

They looked at each other and whispered, but they were more suspicious.

A man who looked like a young general asked loudly, "What is the way to survive?"

Mo asked: "Those who are willing to stay can work in our army and receive the same treatment as our soldiers, with food, clothing and pay..."

"We would rather die than kill our compatriots!" Someone immediately objected loudly.

Someone echoed: "Yes, although we surrendered, we are from Beiling, and we will not help you attack Beiling!"

"That's right, our relatives are still in Beiling. We can still receive pensions when our relatives die. If we become traitors, we will be wiped out!"

"Yes, yes!" Many people echoed.

Shangguan Ruoli said indifferently: "Wait for Mo Wen to finish speaking, we will fulfill him if he wants to die."

The captives fell silent for a moment, and feared as they realized that death was still before them.

Mo Wen continued: "Those who are willing to stay, but don't want to stay in the military camp, after the snow melts, can go to reclaim wasteland, grow food, have food, housing and wages, and even start a family and start a business. When they want to go back to Beiling, they can go back to Beiling at any time. If you go back to Beiling, you can also bring your family over."

"Boom!" The prisoners all erupted.

Is there such a good thing?They couldn't believe it.

The young general who spoke first asked again, "What about those who don't want to stay?"

Mo asked: "If you don't want to stay, after a warm meal, you will be sent back to Beiling for ten cents per person. As for whether you want to go home to see your wives, children, or mother, or go back to the military camp, we don't care. He When we meet on the Japanese battlefield, we are still enemies."

There was a silence among the prisoners, all in deep thought.

Mo asked: "Think slowly! Eat first!"

Soon some soldiers came over carrying porridge buckets and baskets, their expressions were ugly, and they felt that it was a waste of food for these Beiling people who killed their brothers.

Dongming Ziyu said lightly: "I know what you think in your heart, but if they want to stay, they believe in us and treat them as their brothers. Of course, if they have evil intentions, the crime is the same as rebellion. .”

Zhou Haiyang took the lead and respectfully said: "Obey!"

Although the soldiers were reluctant in their hearts, they also loudly said: "Obey!"

Shangguan Ruoli said to Dongming Ziyu: "It's understandable for the soldiers to find it difficult to accept it for a while, but when they see the benefits of treating the captives kindly, more people will accept it."

She can't share any human rights with the people here, she can only proceed from the interests.

Dongming Ziyu nodded, "This king has a preliminary idea of ​​taking down the mausoleum city."

Shangguan Ruoli's eyes lit up, "Attack the heart first? Use the captives to explain reality?"

Dongming Ziyu embraced her, and said with a light smile, "Li'er and this king really have a good understanding."

I have never seen Dongming Ziyu and Shangguan Ruoli throwing dog food. The soldiers including Zhou Haiyang all stared at each other. The prince and concubine are too affectionate, why don't they betray anyone?

In this era, men and women do not give or receive kisses, even husband and wife must maintain certain etiquette in front of others, there is no such intimacy.

Of course, there are men and women who are so intimate in public, usually the woman is... a brothel woman.

But Shangguan Ruoli has an elegant demeanor and clear eyes, not only does not have the smell of dust, but is as elegant as a fairy.

Shangguan Ruoli noticed everyone's strangeness, blushed, and wanted to break free from his arms.

Dongming Ziyu naturally refused, and laughed softly, "Why are you so obedient in front of Princess Linglong, and why do you take the initiative to sneak into this king's arms?"

Seeing his sly and playful gaze, Shangguan Ruoli knew that he had discovered his little thoughts, so he couldn't help blushing and pretending to be angry: "I just want her to see, you are mine! What's the matter?"

Dongming Ziyu laughed recklessly: "This king is as happy as a sweetheart!"

Except for his own people, it was the first time seeing Dongming Ziyu smiling, so he couldn't help being a little dazed.

King Xuan's smile was so pretty that even rough old men like them looked straight at him.

And this smile only belongs to Princess Xuan!
Everyone has the same idea in their hearts: just by conquering the cold, arrogant and ruthless Prince Xuan, this Princess Xuan is not easy.
