Chapter 253: Return Safely

I saw two familiar figures walking in, standing in front of Lord Huang, it was Tang Xun and Yang Congyi who were chasing all the way.

Lord Huang got up excitedly to meet him, and shouted, "It's really you! Are you still alive? In his voice, his eyes were full of incredulity, and he couldn't believe his eyes when he saw Tang Xun and Yang Congyi standing in front of him.

Yang Congyi smiled: "Luckily, we are still alive." ”

Lord Huang said happily: "I heard that the two of you were all hiding at the bottom of the sea that day, I don't know how sad I am, and now you have come back from the dead and come back alive, what a great joy, great joy!" ”

Tang Xun said: "We are just lucky not to die, but we are not resurrected from the dead, what Lord Huang said is too terrible." ”

Lord Huang smiled: "Yes, yes, I said it wrong." Sit down, sit down, tell me how you survived the storm, and found Tianzhu again, I'm curious, I want to know! He had a lot of questions, and he couldn't wait to know the experiences of Yang and Tang.

Yang Congyi said: "It's a long story, so I'll just say it briefly." On that day we were entangled in the sail and dragged into the sea, by chance and rescued by the sail, drifted down to a desert island, fortunately the desert island is only more than two hundred miles from the land, we spent a lot of time from the island back to the mainland, and then borrowed a boat on the beach, originally prepared to go back to the Srivijaya country and other fleets to come back, and then I thought about it, back to the Yi fleet in front of the journey is still far away, it is the time when we need manpower, so the two of us drove the boat all the way to chase over, encountered some twists and turns on the way, thought that we could not catch up with the fleet, did not expect the fleet to go, What a blessing. ”

Although Yang Congyi said it simply and calmly, omitting a lot of details, Lord Huang was surprised to hear it, and Lian Lian sighed: "Luck! Good luck and courage for you! I'm afraid that the only people who can survive if they fall into the vast sea are the two of you, and I am afraid that the others will all die in the belly of the fish. It's time to celebrate when you're back in the fleet. Tell me to go down, tonight I will pick up the wind and wash the dust for Lord Tang and Lord Yang. ”

The waiter answered, and hurried out to pass the word.

Yang Congyi said: "Adults don't have to be like this, we are also in danger." Leaving the fleet for more than two months, it must have caused a lot of trouble to the adults, since he is back, he should immediately share the worries for the adults and the fleet, and it is a trivial matter whether to catch the wind or not. ”

Tang Xun continued: "Yes, I just saw that the adults seemed to have something, I don't know if we can help." ”

Lord Huang smiled on his face, sighed, and said, "There is indeed a troublesome matter, and I have a headache and no tricks." Jiang Kai, you tell the two of you to hear it. ”

Jiang Kai smiled at this time: "Lord Yang, Lord Tang, I am so happy to see that you are okay and have returned safely!" God forbid! ”

Yang Congyi smiled: "It's just luck." I just heard that Tianzhu's return is all done by you, and I am really fortunate to have suffered you these days. Let's talk about some troublesome things first, let's discuss and discuss together, there are many people, and there is always a solution. ”

So Jiang Kai told them about the rape of many Tianzhu women by the Xuanwei Army and the reserve army, and asked them to give them ideas on what to do.

After listening to Jiang Kai's story, Tang Xun suddenly became angry, and said coldly with a dark face: "Kill!" These people should be damned, find out and kill them all before you can get angry! ”

Jiang Kai said: "The problem now is that there are as many as six or seven thousand Xuanwei troops and reserve troops going out, and if you want to find them in the short term, I'm afraid it's a needle in a haystack." According to the itinerary of the fleet, we had to leave in three days, and there was no time at all. At present, many family members of the victims are outside the camp of Huiyi, and if the solution is not good, I really don't know what will happen. ”

Huang Dadao: "I can't find the scum who violated military discipline in a short time, I wanted to appease and compensate the victims, and settled the matter privately, but Jiang Kai said that compensating so many people may attract thousands of people." Now they want to kill people to appease the anger of the victims' families, but they don't know who to kill, and even if they find out, they are afraid that killing them will cause instability in the morale of the military. I can't kill people, I can't make compensation, I can't do it, it doesn't work left and right, and it gives me a lot of headaches. I can't help it, can you come up with a way to calm the incident and stabilize the morale of the army? I am afraid that if it drags on for a long time, not only will it be difficult for the victims' families to calm down, but the Xuanwei army will also be affected, and the morale of the army will be shaken, which will be greatly detrimental to the fleet. ”

This is indeed a very thorny problem, certainly not all compensation, no one knows how many victims there are, once the mouth is opened, the family members who have not been victimized see others receiving compensation, they will inevitably be red-eyed, pretending to be victims to deceive compensation, they can't find out, let alone refuse compensation, in the end things can only get bigger and bigger. It is also delusional to find out the people who violated military discipline from the Xuanwei Army and the reserve army, first, this is a felony of killing heads, and no one admits it, and second, the victims cannot recognize them.

"My lord, why don't we go and see what the victim and their families have to ask for it, and if we can meet them, we can satisfy them as much as possible, and then calm the anger of the people first." Unable to think of a good way, Yang Congyi could only propose to go to see the victims' families first and calm them down first.

Lord Huang sighed and said, "That's all it can be." Go ahead and do it. "These messy things, he doesn't want to mess with them, since Yang Congyi and Tang Xun have come back safely, it's better to leave it to them to do.

Seeing that Lord Huang pushed the matter away, the three of them didn't want to worry about it anymore, so they didn't say much and left the room together.

"Lord Yang, Lord Tang, it's great that you came back safely, you don't know how chaotic the fleet is in Tianzhu, if it goes on like this, I'm afraid the fleet will be destroyed." Jiang Kai was worried.

As soon as he heard this, Yang Congyi suddenly became a little curious in his heart, and asked in surprise: "What happened?" ”

Jiang Kai said: "During the period of the disappearance of the two adults, we came to Tianzhu, Lord Dai was invited to the royal city, and has not returned so far, Lord Huang is either on the boat, or occasionally enters the city to have a banquet for businessmen, the whole fleet is uncontrolled, Lord Huang asked me to be responsible for the return of Tianzhu, but I am just a small member of the army, when the two adults are there, there are adults to support me, I can still use my words, you are not there, I want to transfer three or five people can not be moved, everything has to come to Lord Huang to coordinate, there are few people, and it adds a lot of unnecessary burdens, I'm overwhelmed. ”

Yang Congyi's heart moved, and he said in a low voice: "What you say is General Zhao Anzhao?" ”

Jiang Kai replied disdainfully: "It's not him, who else, since he came to Tianzhu, he spent all day in the barracks playing with women, and the military discipline of the Xuanwei Army was loose, I haven't seen them train a few times in two months, and he sent someone to ask for money half a month ago." If this continues, the fleet will not be able to go far. ”

Tang Xun said: "What do they want to pay for?" Didn't you say that everyone's salaries would be paid back to the Great Song Dynasty? ”

Jiang Kai said: "The two adults are not here, and Lord Huang is not in charge of everything, what should I do if I have no official and no function?" I really couldn't see it, so I suggested to Lord Huang that the Xuanwei Army and the Reserve Army should receive the errand of selling goods, and those who completed it would be paid, and those who did not complete it would not be paid, and as a result, as soon as six or seven thousand people went out, there was this kind of rape of Tianzhu women. It's also my lack of consideration. ”

Yang Congyi said: "It's really inappropriate for you to let so many people out." But the rape of women is still because of lax military discipline, and Zhao An is to blame. Xuanwei Jun didn't say anything in advance, but looked at the victims first and calmed them down is the top priority. ”

With that, the three of them got off the main ship of Shenzhou and went straight back to the Yi camp.

As soon as I arrived at the gate of the camp, I saw 100 people gathered outside, arguing with the sergeant guarding the camp. The Tianzhu people did not have the slightest fear in the face of the guards with sharp weapons, let alone the intention of leaving, and the guards did not dare to use weapons in the face of the angry Tianzhu people, but just reprimanded them and asked them to leave and return to Yizhong.

"Don't make any noise, Lord Yang and Master Tang are here, go and call the translator." As soon as Jiang Kai gave the order, the guards quieted down.

As soon as the Tianzhu people saw that the guards were shut up, they chattered even more, and there was a mess outside the camp gate, completely unaware of what they were talking about.

After a while, the interpreter came to the gate of the camp, and Yang Congyi directly ordered: "Tell them that there are two adults who come to make decisions for them, and ask them to send one person from each family, and we will understand the situation again." You can come in together. ”

The translator immediately shouted a few times, and the Tianzhu people watched Yang Congyi and Tang Xun gradually quiet down, and when the interpreter told them what Yang Congyi meant, there was chaos outside the camp again.

Soon after, more than twenty Tianzhu people entered the camp, and they were taken to a barracks, which was not a big place, and they could only stand.

"Ask them how old the victims are, and if they remember what the person who raped them looked like, one by one." Yang Congyi looked at the simple Tianzhu people in front of him, most of them should be farmers, and he was deeply sympathetic to this misfortune.

After the translator said a word to the Tianzhu people, he immediately began to translate: "Fourteen, I don't remember. ”

"Twenty, I don't remember."

"Seventeen, I don't remember."

"Thirteen, I don't remember."

"Twenty-one, I don't remember."

"Twenty-four, I don't remember."

..........

They were all young women, but no one remembered what they looked like. This is not surprising, almost all of the Xuanwei Army and the Reserve Army are dressed similarly, in that case, how can they still have the heart to see what the other party looks like, even if they remember it at the time, if they have no obvious characteristics, they can't find it among the six or seven thousand people now.

Yang Congyi frowned, this is really tricky, I can't find anyone, I can only see how to compensate first, so he said: "Ask them again what they want." ”

After the interpreter asked them, he immediately began to translate one by one: "My daughter is only thirteen, and she was killed by bad people, please hand over the murderer, and we will punish him with stones." ”

"My sister is about to get married, and it was hard to get enough dowry, and now that this kind of thing has happened, the man will not marry, and it will be difficult for her to marry again in the future. It was your people who hurt her, and you must make amends to us. ”
