The soldiers walked out of Chuzhou City one by one. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

The soldiers who surrendered were all asked to drop their weapons and remove their armor and leave only a cloth coat.

The soldiers of the Southern Expeditionary Army held flintlock pistols to supervise the soldiers who came out of the city to prevent them from taking advantage of the opportunity to cause chaos, and followed the soldiers closely, and Xiao Han also walked out of the city.

Lu Fei had been waiting for Xiao Han, and when he saw Xiao Han come out, he said, "Your Royal Highness, you have made a wise decision, otherwise I don't know how many soldiers will die in vain." ”

"What General Lu said is that Xiao Wang made this decision because he took pity on the soldiers, and I hope that General Lu will be able to say a few good words for Xiao Wang in front of His Royal Highness in the future."

"Of course there's no problem with this, I'll be the talker." Lu Fei said.

Xiao Han smiled bitterly, "Thank you, General." ”

Lu Fei nodded, at this time he asked Luo Hong to take Xiao Han to a camp tent to take care of him, like King Wei, Xiao Han also belongs to the royal family, these people can only be dealt with by Xiao Ming's personal order, and no one else dares to do it at will.

Guarding Xiao Han, Lu Fei frowned as he looked at the many captives, Bai Mu noticed Lu Fei's expression, and he said: "General, this is trouble, there are too many of these soldiers, and if we stay in the army, our military food will not be enough, and it is also a hidden danger to leave these people in the rear." ”

Lu Fei was also thinking about this problem, he said: "These people are a burden to us now, so after these soldiers have eaten, give each of them three days of dry food and let them return to their hometowns." ”

"Well, that's a good idea." Bai Mu nodded, these more than 100,000 people would also eat them.

Lu Fei said, "And letting these soldiers go back can also spread our benevolence, and at the same time discourage the defenders of other cities." ”

Set a plan to deal with the prisoners, Lu Fei sent people to send the battle situation of Chuzhou City to Qingzhou City, and the next day he asked the soldiers to send three days of dry food to the prisoners, these soldiers are soldiers on the ship, and they are ordinary people when they take off their military uniforms, and they will also be the people of the country in the future, and it is because of this that he will be so generous.

After getting dry food, the captives left the camp of the Nanzhen army one after another, and at the same time, Lu Fei began to rectify the southern expeditionary army and marched to the southern city, and now Weidi Tongzhou, Yangzhou, Jinling City, Pengzhou City, Huaizhou City, and Chuzhou military furniture have been conquered, leaving only seven cities.

The distance between the homes of these seven cities is very close, and Lu Fei believes that he can take these seven cities by giving him a month.

Qingzhou.

Three days after Lu Fei took Chuzhou City, Xiao Han arrived at the Qingzhou camp with the battle report.

Xiao Ming, who got the news, took Fiji to Qingzhou camp as soon as possible.

When he saw Xiao Han in the cage, Fiji said: "Your Highness, that's right, this is Xiao Han, the eldest son of King Wei." ”

"Your Highness, this is Lu Fei's battle report, this time he surrendered 120,000 troops, Lu Fei captured their weapons and armor and gave them three days of dry food to let them leave on their own." Niu Ben said.

Fiji nodded when he heard this, and he said: "Lu Fei handled it well this time, these soldiers staying in the army are also consuming food, so it is better to let them go back to farming." ”

Xiao Ming glanced at the battle report, it was the same as what Niu Ben said, these surrendered troops could not pose a threat to the Southern Expeditionary Army, but they were a burden to Qingzhou, and if he turned these people into slaves, it would inevitably cause the dissatisfaction of the people of Weidi, and it was the best choice to let them leave on their own.

"During this time, he did not spend time at Bowen College." Xiao Ming said.

At this time, Xiao Ming looked at Xiao Han, in the battle report, Lu Fei said that he promised to spare Xiao Han's life, and asked Xiao Ming to spare Xiao Han's death, he said to Xiao Han: "You and I are both royal relatives, and this time I have some credit for leading the troops to surrender, this king will not kill you, but the death penalty can be avoided, and the living crime cannot be escaped, this king decided to depose you to Ryukyu Island as a commoner, are you willing?" ”

Xiao Han was sad in his heart, he had already prepared for this result, and he said: "Your Highness Longen, it's just that the guilty minister still has one more thing to ask for, please let the criminal minister reunite with his family." ”

"If they are still in Jinling City, this king will take them to Qingzhou and go to Ryukyu with you." Xiao Ming said that although he didn't like King Wei's family very much, but now that he had promised others and Xiao Han had made meritorious contributions, he could only give Xiao Han a way to live.

But leaving him in the feudal country will inevitably have some remnants of Wei Land will have thoughts in their hearts, so he sent Xiao Han to Ryukyu, in such a place surrounded by the sea on all sides, he is difficult to fly, and he can no longer make waves.

After saying this, Xiao Ming motioned for the servants to temporarily detain Xiao Han, and then the three of them went to Niu Ben's camp.

At this time, there is a huge sand table in Niu Ben's camp tent, this sand table is the city and topographic map of Wei Di, Niu Ben pointed to the seven cities that have not yet been broken and said: "Your Highness, now there are only these seven cities left, Lu Fei will continue to advance the army, if the north and south are attacked, within more than a month, Wei can be pacified." ”

Xiao Ming nodded, the army of Chuzhou City surrendered, Wei Di has already gone to the general trend, now it is just to clean up some remnants of the defeated generals, the problem is not big, now the most troublesome thing for him is not the war but how to deal with so many cities.

Fiji was a little excited, now that he has taken such a city as Weidi, these cities will inevitably need to be managed by officials, so that the officials of Chang'an, who have nothing to do in Qingzhou, will have a place to go.

So he said, "Your Highness, it's time to prepare the officials for these cities. ”

Xiao Ming nodded, he brought Fiji out this time precisely because of this problem, the thirteen states of Wei have a large population, and managing this place will inevitably require a large number of officials.

These officials from Chang'an are proficient in government affairs, even if they are no longer studying in the Bowen College, they can manage the Wei land, and now they have no problem learning the knowledge of the Bowen College.

"In this case, you will evaluate them in these two days, and if they are qualified, they will be arranged with corresponding positions." Xiao Ming said.

Fiji nodded, he was even better at this than Xiao Ming.

Niu Ben said, "Your Highness, what about the defenders of these cities? Wei Di has just been captured, and it will inevitably be full of chaotic troops and thieves for a period of time, and it is impossible not to guard against it. ”

Xiao Ming had already had his own ideas about this issue, he couldn't set up an army in every state, so he said: "This problem is not difficult, you help the lord's government to establish a guard post in the local area, and the guard post will be responsible for local security." ”

The guard station in Xiao Ming's mouth is the guard post in the last government reform, which is basically equivalent to a modern police agency.

However, because Wei Di may be chaotic for a while, he will increase the number of personnel in the guard.
