Back to the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty

Chapter 496 New Baekje King
"You untouchables dare to collude with bandit soldiers, you are not afraid of being beheaded!!?" The master of the Jin family shouted angrily.

Li Dian disguised himself as a bandit leader, and brought a total of [-] Long Teng troops to surround the Jin family members, not for their sake, but to see if any fish had slipped through the net.

"Old Cui, is everyone here?" Li Dian asked.

"It's all right, as far as I know, the main family of the Jin family is all here, and I don't know about other relatives of the Jin family!" Old Cui said.

"Okay! Let's do it!" Li Dian shouted in a low voice.

Cui Jianmin led all the fishermen and the slaves who had just been rescued with a knife, with the flames of hatred in his eyes, shouting angrily, and rushed on all sides, with all the knives, he quickly killed all the Jin family members.

The blood flowed along the uneven ground, and soon pooled together in a low-lying place.

"Clang"

The knife fell to the ground and made a loud noise. A slave obviously killed someone for the first time. Before the murder, he was supported by a wave of anger. I don't know if I couldn't hold the knife steadily, or out of fear, it fell to the ground.

Most of the other slaves were trembling, their faces were terrified, and their nerves were tense.

At this time, someone must stand up and lead these slaves, otherwise many slaves will collapse because of this.

"Old Cui! This is your chance! I hope you can lead them!" Li Dian walked to Cui Jianmin and encouraged him.

Cui Jianmin is also the first time to kill someone, but his heart has been much stronger than other slaves due to the rough experience since childhood.

Although his face was a little pale, the light in his eyes shone even brighter when he thought that he would no longer have to be slaves to others, and even let the Han people be the masters of this land.

"General Li, thank you!" Cui Jianmin clasped his fists at Li Dian, walked to the high platform with big strides, his eyes became glinting, and he swept away the hundreds of slaves in the courtyard. The old and excited parents of these slaves met and nodded.

"I declare that from this moment on, we are free!! We will no longer be slaves!!!" Cui Jianmin raised his sword and shouted loudly.

All the slaves immediately cheered and shouted loudly: "We are not slaves anymore, we are free!"

After shouting, many slaves hugged each other excitedly, with tears of excitement streaming down their faces.

There were also quite a few slaves who nodded excitedly, clasping their hands tightly with the people next to them.

"Everyone listen to me!" At this moment, a loud shout came from the crowd of slaves, it was an old fisherman.

Li Dian recognized the identity of the old fisherman at a glance, and he was one of the fifteen fishermen before.

The old fisherman still had some prestige among the slaves. Hearing his shout, the slaves soon became quiet and looked at him.

"Listen to me! Although we are free, we will soon be defeated by the Baekje soldiers who heard the news! So we must have a king to lead us! Keep this victory alive, so that our future generations can enjoy a happy life!" The old fisherman said loudly.

"Yes! We should have a king!" another fisherman echoed loudly.

"King! King!!! We want a king!!" All the slaves cheered.

Naturally, some slaves looked at Cui Jianmin, while others looked at Li Dian.

Seeing this, Cui Jianmin immediately said loudly: "All of our things are brought by the Han army. If there is no Han army, we will never be able to win the battle in the future. If we want to choose the king, we must Choose from the Han army!"

Cui Jianmin didn't want to be a king, but he also knew that he definitely didn't have the ability to be a king. Guan Cheng had made it very clear before that the reason why the Han army attacked Baekje was not just to liberate the slaves, but to liberate the slaves. Instead, they want to annex the entire Samhan!So that all the land in Sanhan was included in the territory of the Han Dynasty.

However, these people don't know the specific situation right now, so it is inevitable that there will be some misunderstandings before they say such words.

"General Li!" Cui Jianmin clasped his fists to Li Dian and asked.

Li Dian didn't expect such a scene to happen, but his heart moved because of this, a smile appeared on his face, and he thought: "Maybe if I do this, the lord will be even happier!"

The slaves noticed Cui Jianmin's actions, and immediately remembered what Cui Jianmin and others had revealed about this group of mysterious Han people!

"If a Han army is chosen as the king, maybe we can really unify the three Koreas in one fell swoop..." All the slaves widened their eyes and held their breath quietly, revealing their longing for the future.

In the eyes of everyone, Li Dian jumped onto the high platform and whispered a few words in Cui Jianmin's ear. Cui Jianmin nodded with excitement and excitement in his eyes.

"Listen to me!!" Cui Jianmin said loudly, "Since we have embarked on this road of no return, only one king is not enough, we must also establish a new country in the name of the king, and use the country to call everyone All those who are willing to join! For the specific situation, General Li of the Han Army is invited to announce it!"

As soon as Cui Jianmin finished speaking, the slave became even more excited. It is undoubtedly an honor to be the first batch of citizens of this country in the first place!

Li Dian announced loudly: "The new country is called the New Baekje Kingdom, and our king's surname is Yuan and his name is Yao. As for the king, you don't know it now, just remember this name. In the future, one day, our king will meet you." Come to this land and meet his people!"

Yuan Yao was Feng Yao, and Li Dian was worried that calling Feng Yao directly would attract the attention of the Han Dynasty, so he had an idea and called him Yuan Yao, so that he could fight in a legitimate way and eliminate the army's peeping at the throne After all, in this overseas land, it is inevitable that some leading generals with great power will have ambitions!
The slaves below all showed excited expressions, but although they had a new country and king, they were most concerned about their own future interests and what kind of rights and life they would get as the people of the new Baekje country.

Of course, Li Dian could understand what the people of New Baekje were thinking. After thinking about it for a while, he immediately announced loudly: "On behalf of my king, I announce that all people who join New Baekje will get a hectare for free. Land and one house! And one year tax exemption! All the people who join the new Baekje country and the soldiers who join the new Baekje army can get two hectares of land and two houses, one servant, and exempt three annual tax!"

This set is basically a copy of Feng Yao's strategy in Runan, but Li Dian slightly changed it, reducing the time for soldiers to be exempted from tax and increasing the land they get. The people of the country become soldiers, making the next attack more smooth.

At the same time, Li Dian still had another idea that he did not express. With the total number of the Han army now, it would be easy to destroy Sanhan, but there would inevitably be damage, and after the Han army left, the people of the original Sanhan would still be left behind. It's just changing the name of the country. After a long time, it is very likely that it will become independent again.
