Chapter 133: The enemy's mortal enemy is a brother
"Marshal, no, no!"
Just as Liu Xing's voice fell, and he was about to turn around and give a formal order, Wang Mingde stepped forward and desperately grabbed the reins of Liu Xing's war horse.
Then he said with a crying face: "Marshal, the golden dog should be killed." But if you really go to kill the prisoners of war this time, where will anyone in our army fight in the Golden Dog in the future? If the golden dog fights to the death in the future, it will only make our brothers suddenly increase many casualties, and I hope that the marshal will think twice and think twice! ”
Hearing his words, Liu Xing frowned, and said secretly in his heart: Yes! Killing these thousands of golden dogs is just an order from the master. But after the killing, the impact is really outweighed by the loss.
Thinking of this, another thought suddenly popped up in Liu Xing's head: Didn't the golden dog treat the children of my Han family as slaves? Then why can't the master also treat them as slaves and pigs and dogs? Returning the way of others to the body of others can also make the development plan that the little master cannot start immediately because of lack of manpower can be launched immediately with these Jurchen slaves......
Thinking of this, Liu Xing's face softened a little, and he nodded slightly and said to Wang Mingde: "What you said does make sense, but who guards so many golden dogs?" I can't help it, if they run out, they will become beasts who abuse the children of my Han family in the future. ”
Hearing this, Wang Mingde turned around and pointed to the crowd of Khitan and Kumo Xi people, and said with a strange smile: "The Khitan is a country that was destroyed by Jurchen dogs, and the Kumo Xi people have been oppressed by golden dogs for many years, and they are no worse than us Han people. The subordinates thought that it would be enough to directly select some people from the Han'er, Khitan, and Kumo Xi soldiers who were willing to submit, and form a few prison camps. ”
The Khitan was destroyed by the Great Song Dynasty and the Jurchens, and the hatred of the Khitans for the Jurchens was no worse than that of the Han people. The hatred of the Kumoxi people and the Jurchens is even more.
The Khitan and Kumoxi were combined into a prison camp, which could not only take care of the captured Jurchen dogs, but also allow the two tribes to supervise and coerce each other. In this way, the Jurchens who were detained by the enemy would naturally not easily get the opportunity to escape.
It not only saves the trouble of going out to guard the prisoners, but also allows the soldiers of the prison camp and the Jurchen slaves to join their development plans as laborers, which is a good thing to kill multiple birds with one stone.
Quickly making up his mind, Liu Xing smiled at Wang Mingde and said, "You pervert, it's a good strategy to easily don't speak, and as soon as you open your mouth." Well, it's up to you. You and Zeng Weijie are in charge of the preparation for the construction of the prison camp, and after the construction of the city, you and Su Quan negotiated to arrange manpower. Ben Shuai here, just wait for you to form the prison camp before assigning you a new deal. ”
Before Liu Xing's words fell, Li Zhuang suddenly urged the horse to walk in front of Liu Xing.
He looked back at Wutai City and asked, "Marshal, what are you going to do with this city that is already full of rubble?" ”
Hearing his question, Liu Xing immediately realized that Li Zhuang's question was not only of concern to him, but of many local people in Wutai in the army.
Zhengse looked at Li Zhuang, Liu Xing frowned and said, "That's it!" All the prison camps were stationed in Wutai City and were responsible for the reconstruction of Wutai. The construction of the city is all carried out according to the pattern of the Hunter Valley, and the five stations should be able to divide into fifteen long streets in the east and west, and each street can bring out the alleys. In the center, if there is vacant land for the county government and other yamen, a new city should be built that can accommodate 15 to 200,000 people. ”
"Marshal, after the construction of Wutai in this Hunter Valley, when are you going to build Koujiazhuang?" Liu Xingcai fell, Zhang Yang, who had been leading troops to be stationed in Koujiazhuang for a period of time, suddenly stepped forward and asked.
After he finished asking, the three brothers of the Kou family looked at Liu Xing's face at the same time.
The prosperity of the Hunter Valley today is the envy of all the officers and soldiers of the Red Turban Army, and even among the Han people in Hedong and Hebei.
A poor ravine that originally only had hunters only took more than two months to become the largest bazaar center city in Hedong and Hebei. Wealth, living standards, and now the main line is catching up with Taiyuan City before the start of the war.
Such an achievement decided that when Liu Xing said that he would start a new construction, it would naturally induce the expectations of everyone in Koujiazhuang. They naturally hope that Liu Xing can turn their hometown into a prosperous city and a rich and noble place deep in the mountains.
Of course, he understood the mentality of the three brothers of the Kou family when they looked at him, and Liu Xing smiled lightly: "Don't worry, at the same time as the reconstruction of Wutai starts, I believe that Wang Mingde and Zeng Weijie can also transfer a few battalions into Koujiazhuang to start construction and reconstruction." I just hope that when the time comes, Kou Lao will not be reluctant to live in those old houses and unwilling to live in the surrounding buildings. ”
"How, how." Kou Cheng's face was very happy when he heard this, and he said with a smile: "The last time my father went to the Hunter Valley, as soon as he returned to the village, he kept talking about how good it would be if Kou Jiazhuang could be like the Hunter Valley, how could he object." ”
After listening to his words, Liu Xing also smiled slightly: "Okay, since Old Kou will not object, then do what I say." ”
As soon as these words fell, Liu Xingle turned his horse head and stopped talking to them.
Urging the horse to walk to the crowd of Khitans and Kumoxi people kneeling on the ground, Liu Xingzheng sat up straight, and said loudly: "The Khitan and my Great Song Dynasty have been fighting fiercely for a full hundred and sixty-five years, and the alliance on the sea is also a helpless covenant of the Great Song Dynasty, and it is necessary to destroy the Khitan. I hope that from today onwards, the Khitans will no longer be hostile to the Han people and turn hostility into friendship.
As long as the Khitan people submit to our Red Turban Army, those who are willing to be soldiers can join the army, and those who wish the people can serve the people. I will do my best to make everyone live a good life without discrimination, just like the Han people. But if you insist on being the enemy of my Han people, I can let you go today, and the next time I see you, even if you are a prisoner of war, I will cut you without mercy. ”
At this point, after a slight pause in Liu Xing's words, he continued to say in a loud voice: "Now let me ask, who is willing to submit to my Red Turban Army and fight against the Jurchens with the children of my Han family?" As long as they submit to our army, they will be my brothers and sisters from now on, and those who are willing to submit will stand up. ”
Before Liu Xing's voice fell, a Khitan man about thirty years old stood up from the crowd and asked with a suspicious face: "Marshal Liu, I have seen your heroism, but we don't know how high your integrity is. The Khitan and the Great Song Dynasty are feuds, are you really willing to let go of the hatred and recognize the Khitan people as brothers? ”
Looking sideways at the person who spoke, Liu Xing said with a warm smile: "The enmity of the previous life, why bother with it? I am willing to give up hatred and join forces to fight against the Jurchen dog, why don't I keep my integrity? Don't say it's a Khitan, now even if the Tanguts are willing to join forces with our army, I will treat them as brothers and sisters. ”
Liu Xing was born in Leopard Forest Valley, and Leopard Forest Valley is the division of several generations of backbone generals in the Western Army, which is something known to the whole world.
If the Khitans are mentioned, they may not really hate them to the bones for the soldiers of the Western Army. But if the Tangut people are mentioned, over the years, countless soldiers of the Western Army, especially the Qin Feng Army, have died under the swords of the Tangut people on the battlefield.
At this time, Liu Xing said that even if the Tangut people were willing to join forces to fight against Jin, the Khitan man couldn't help but doubt after hearing it: "I heard that Marshal Liu was out of the Leopard Forest Valley, will you really let go of the hatred of the past dynasties with the Tangut people, regardless of the past suspicions?" ”
Seeing that he still didn't believe it, Liu Xing said with a smile: "The enemy of my enemy is my friend. The sworn enemy of the enemy is the brother. If the Tangut people are really willing to give up their hatred, I will be friends with them at most. The Khitans are different, as long as they are willing to join forces with our army to fight against Jin, then I swear to heaven that I will truly regard them as brothers. ”
The enemy's enemy is a friend, and the enemy's mortal enemy is a brother, as soon as these words came out of Liu Xing's mouth, the Khitan man's face changed slightly. He lowered his head and thought for a while, and after discussing in a whisper with a few Khitan men around him, he walked out of the crowd with a dozen people.
"The little Yelu Hongcai, who was originally awarded by the Golden Dog to the Khitan Mouke and once commanded five hundred cavalry, is now willing to lead his brothers to submit to Marshal Liu." After the man knelt down in front of Liu Xing with more than a dozen people, he immediately clenched his fists and said respectfully.
The seventeen or eighteen Khitan men behind him immediately expressed their willingness to submit.
Looking at him, Liu Xing smiled slightly: "Dare to ask Brother Yelu whether you are willing to be a prison soldier or a regular soldier of my Red Turban Army?" ”
After Yelu Hongcai heard Liu Xing's words, he immediately raised his head and said: "I am willing to be a regular soldier, but if the marshal does not dare to believe us, you can also start from the prison city soldiers." ”
