Valley Emperor

PS: The boss is mighty, thank you 'Xuan Yu' for the reward!

————

When none of these prisoners surrendered, they all had the same status as prisoners and could only eat half a day.

At that time, everyone was the same unfortunate prisoner, and no one was better than the other.

But now it is different.

Those soldiers who surrendered not only became a member of the Great Tang King's division, but also lived a happy life with enough to eat. And he also became a hundred households, and became the immediate boss of those captives who refused to surrender.

On the contrary, those who refuse to surrender will continue their captive life, not only will they not have enough to eat, but from now on, they will be engaged in heavy manual labor every day: land reclamation!

At the same time, the bigger change is that those who were just as hard-working as them in the past actually became their immediate bosses, and they yelled at them, urging them to work hard.

This difference in treatment and the huge gap in their identities will bring great psychological shock to these two groups of people at the same time.

With this obvious gap comparison, the dozen people who surrendered first will be more grateful for their original choice, and may become more loyal to the Tang Dynasty in the future.

And those captives who are unwilling to surrender will also slowly change their minds, seeing that the captives who were just like themselves are now living a life of superiority, unless they are those who are stubborn and loyal to the Ming Dynasty, otherwise It's hard to keep holding on to what's in your mind.

There is a great possibility that these people will gradually change their mentality and then surrender.

As for the final effect of such a routine, Madam Bai, the empress dowager of the Tang Dynasty, was very confident. After hearing that a group of captives were already obedient, she showed a calm expression in the face of Bai Yunqi who came to report. Appearance said to his younger brother:

"In the past, those mud-legged ladies in Lijiazhuang were able to take care of them obediently, but it's not an easy task to take care of dozens of prisoners now!"

Even Emperor Li Xuan didn't know that Mrs. Bai was behind this matter, but he was still the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty anyway. Even if he was a puppet, he could learn a lot of news from Liu Bagou and other officials.

After hearing the obedience of the prisoners who had been cleaned up, I learned that Bai Yunqi had been running to his mother Mrs. Bai every day in recent days. What Mrs. Bai led, Bai Yunqi was just an executor.

However, he didn't stop him, instead he secretly supported Madam Bai's actions. Even when Liu Bagou said: "In the important harem, even if Bai Yunqi is a national uncle, he can't run to the harem every day, Li Xuan pretended he didn't hear it."

Because he knew that everything Mrs. Bai did was for her son.

It has been more than half a year since I came to this time and space. Li Xuan is not sure what other people think of him, but he is absolutely sure of what Mrs. Bai thinks of herself. That is, in Mrs. Bai's eyes, he is the only baby Li Xuan. son.

The rest of the Tang Dynasty, and even the daughter-in-law Dong Yunyun are just scraps, not even as important as Li Xuan's hair.

Now Madam Bai is using her uncle Bai Yunqi to take back the prisoners, trying to build an army that has always been directly loyal to the 'royal family' and loyal to the emperor Li Xuan. How could he, Li Xuan, object?

As for Liu Bagou's suggestion that interfering in government affairs in the harem would lead to national crisis, Li Xuan didn't bother to refute him. The Tang Dynasty was a big fart, and should he be worthy of talking about such a lofty issue as interfering in government affairs in the harem?

If this can be said, then everyone should not play the game of the Tang Dynasty, because there are too many similar problems.

There are many 'major' problems in the Tang Dynasty, and any one of them can harm the country's society. Prime Minister, Wu is about to take over the official regime of the army?

Another example, who has ever seen himself become emperor after a dream? But the founding emperor of the Tang Dynasty, Li Xuan's father Li Er must have done it!

If Li Xuan or his sons, grandsons, etc. really had **** luck, developed and defeated the Ming Dynasty to become the Lord of China, those historians would have to worry about how to record the dark history of the early Tang Dynasty. I am afraid it can make future generations laugh for a thousand years.

It is estimated that they will have to play word games such as Slashing the White Snake Uprising and immortals dreaming.

Therefore, Li Xuan scoffed at Liu Bagou's various worries and hints, secretly continuing to support his mother and giving Bai Yunqi various conveniences.

However, as a puppet emperor, Li Xuan watched his mother recover the bandits step by step with the help of his uncle Bai Yunqi, and established a standing army.

Speaking of conspiracy and tricks, in the huge Tang Dynasty, it is estimated that no one is the opponent of Mrs. Bai. As expected of the wife of a landlord, this palace fighting skill is probably full!

Just when Bai Yunqi was playing with his standing army rear, Li Xuan also got news from the front line that Fang Dongquan and Huang Xueren had arrived and launched an attack on Jiguan Mountain. Gotta play a bit longer.

However, Li Xuan knew that Fang Dongquan and the others had a very good chance of succeeding in attacking Jiguan Mountain this time. Compared with the last time they went to Jiguan Mountain, the more than 200 people they brought were better equipped.

In the last battle of Luohu Valley, more than 500 Ming troops fled in a hurry. When they fled for their lives, they threw everything that could be thrown away, not to mention military rations and other baggage, and even the weapons they carried with them were thrown away. A bright spot.

When cleaning the battlefield, the bandits in Huangzhu Mountain not only obtained a large amount of Ming army rations, but also obtained a large amount of weapons and equipment.

With these captured weapons and equipment, the bandits in Huangzhushan suddenly changed their guns to cannons, and hoes, sticks, sickles, etc. rolled as far as they went. Today, they are using the standard weapons of the Ming army.

There are not only conventional weapons such as steel knives and spears, but also fire guns and more precious armor.

The ordinary guard soldiers of the Ming army wore tattered commoner clothes, but some officers and a few core soldiers were well-equipped, and a few still had armor.

Even the most common cotton armor~www.wuxiax.com~ is a defensive weapon, and there is even a set of chain armor originally worn by Zeng Ziyun, but this chain armor was later robbed by Butcher Chen.

The Huangzhushan bandits with sharp weapons and thick armor, although the quality of their personnel is still the same as before, their combat effectiveness must have been improved.

Therefore, Li Xuan believed that it would be a matter of time before Fang Dongquan and the others came back victorious.

But even if Fang Dongquan and the others defeated Jiguan Mountain, there were still Huanggui Mountain and Heihu Village waiting for them to recover, so for a while, the Tang Dynasty's foreign expansion war would not stop.

Although the continuous wars are suspected of consuming the people and hurting the wealth, and even affecting the land reclamation and sowing in the spring, the bandits in Huangzhu Mountain can't control so much.

Because they all know very well that the next attack of the Ming army will not take long, and no matter how stupid anyone knows, the Ming army suffered a big loss last time, and even one thousand households were damaged. It will definitely pay more attention, and there will be more Ming troops coming.

Therefore, the Tang Dynasty should take advantage of the precious time of winter to expand as much as possible and increase its strength!

Their guesses were indeed correct, and Ming Ting's reaction was indeed not small.

No, at this moment, Zhengtai County welcomes an unusual guest. He is Su Jiakang's immediate boss and the master of Song Zhiwen, the prefect of Xingquan Prefecture.

When this middle-aged scribe, who was wearing a green shirt and holding a folding fan in winter, saw Su Jiakang, he directly handed him a handwritten letter from Song Zhiwen, the prefect of Xingquan Prefecture.

After Su Jiakang saw the letter, he took it back, lit it with a candle and turned it into ashes.

Immediately, he didn't seem to see Su Jiakang's frowning expression, but said directly: "Since your lord has read the letter, you must know what to do!"
