Chapter 509: Harvest of Extortion
The four surviving Xianbei marshals of the six Xianbei tribes and dozens of tribal leaders walked on their knees, trembling to see Shang Ji, and they didn't dare to raise their heads!
The battle ended quickly, and the Xianbei army completely lost the will and ability to resist, and surrendered to the Shang army on a large scale. Of the 600,000 Xianbei who went to war with Chenglugui, about 160,000 were killed before and after, 300,000 were captured, and the total number of Xianbei troops who could escape by chance did not exceed 150,000!
At the same time, the Shang Ji army also captured seven young marshals of the eastern Xianbei, and there were countless leaders and nobles!
The pursuers who had just finished abusing themselves were abused by the Shang army in an instant, and only they knew what it was like in the hearts of the six Xianbei who escaped death.
As for why it was not the silver dragon iron rider and greedy wolf rider in the intelligence who came to the rescue, but the black armor Xuanqi of Shang Ji; Why did Shang Ji attack from the rear? Why did the attack time just catch up with the destruction of the main forces of the six Xianbeis; Even if a smart person thinks of these questions, they will never dare to raise them!
On the contrary, today's six Xianbei are extremely deferential, and the attitude of the handsome and aristocratic people of each department is comparable to that of the most humble slaves, for fear of angering the Shang Ji and causing the death of the clan!
Looking at the six Xianbei nobles who were marching on their knees, trembling and not daring to come out, a smug smile appeared on the corner of Shang Ji's mouth.
After a while, with a sad expression, Shang Ji took a few steps and stretched out his hand to help Shi Ze in the front.
"It's me late! Ben General didn't expect Kebi to be so frustrated, attacking the Guiyi tribes, he set my own family to lead the tiger Ben, and destroyed Kebi to avenge the king! ”
I don't know if he was moved by Shang Ji or frightened by Shang Ji, Shi Ze, who was missing half an arm, had a bitter face, and immediately cried bitterly: "Envoy! Envoy! We're so miserable! ”
"Ben will know, Ben will know! Don't worry, you went to Pingzhou, and I will provide you with food, clothing, housing and transportation, and I guarantee that you will not let the Xianbei brothers be wronged! Shang Ji comforted and promised repeatedly, but he did not give any explanation to the massive cattle, sheep and war horses that were captured by them after the six Xianbei were discarded.
"Thank you for your grace, thank you for your grace!" Regardless of whether it is true or false, anyway, the dozens of Xianbei nobles in front of him are grateful to Shang Ji. Shi Ze even cut his cheek on the spot and swore an oath of loyalty to Shangji.
The others followed suit and pledged their allegiance, and after a few moments, Shang Ji added dozens of Xianbei followers.
Quietly opened the system panel and took a look, Shang Ji found that the loyalty of this wave of people was very different, and some of them were only thirty or forty loyal, and they were obviously different.
However, to Shang Ji's surprise, there was another group of people whose loyalty was hovering around seventy, and Shi Ze in front of Shang Ji was even more loyal to eighty-nine points!
Yi Di is really true that he is afraid of power and not Huaide, and if he is subdued, he will naturally be loyal!
Secretly remembering a few Xianbei nobles with high loyalty, Shang Ji took out a pill of Huitian Pill and put it in Shi Ze's hand: "Shi Ze Xiaoshuai's loyalty and courage will have been heard of a long time ago, there is a pill here, which can ensure that Shi Ze Xiaoshuai recovers his majesty, please accept it!" ”
Shi Ze excitedly took the pill, opened it tremblingly with his healthy hand, and swallowed it in one gulp at Shang Ji's signal. Soon, new granulations grew out of the severed arm, and the limbs were repaired at a rate visible to the naked eye.
"The last general will thank the lord Hongen, and I wish to make cattle and horses for the lord for the rest of my life, so as to repay the favor of the lord!" Shi Ze fell to his knees with a thud and shouted.
"Ding, congratulations to the player Shang Ji, your military general Shi Ze's loyalty to you has increased by five points, and now his loyalty is 94 points!"
"Ding, congratulations to the player Shang Ji, your generals Naliu, Qin Moor, and Bi Luxury...... Wait for the loyalty of the twenty-one generals to be improved to varying degrees, please check for yourself! ”
Looking at the Xianbei nobles kneeling together, Shang Ji could only secretly sigh that the Xianbei people were really complicated, and they were simply collective Stockholm patients.
"Okay, all of you have a bloody battle, and the casualties are not small, so let's go down first to gather the troops and appease the herdsmen!"
"I'll retire!"
sent away the six handsome little handsome people of Xianbei, and Shang Ji met with another group of Xianbei nobles!
The performance of this group of Xianbei people is even worse than that of Liubu Xianbei, and many of them can't even walk on their own, and they have obviously completely lost their courage.
"Spare your life! It was Cheng Lu who forced us to do it, how dare we fight against the Celestial Empire! ”
"Spare your life!"
……………………………………
As soon as they saw Shang Ji, everyone cried, and the barracks were filled with noisy sounds.
"Shut up!" Shang Ji was distraught by the crying and couldn't help but burst into a shout.
The Xianbei nobles who were crying and grabbing the ground were suddenly silent, and looked at Shang Ji in horror, as if Shang Ji would turn into a cannibal demon and swallow them all in the next moment!
"You are all my captives now, and now there are two roads in front of you, one is to follow me to Pingzhou as a coolie to build the road, and the other is to let your tribe send people to ransom you!"
In the face of the captured Eastern Xianbei nobles, Shang Ji didn't bother to pretend, and said bluntly.
"We are willing to pay for our lives, we are willing to pay for our lives!" As soon as they heard that there was still a chance to redeem themselves, many Xianbei immediately became excited and shouted repeatedly.
No one wants to go to Pingzhou to be a coolie, these people are Xianbei aristocrats, they eat and drink spicy food in Xianbei, they live a free life, and they have the opportunity to go back and continue to be powerful, who will go to Pingzhou to be a coolie!
"Good!" Seeing the Xianbei nobleman's reaction, Shang Ji nodded with satisfaction.
For these scumbags, Shang Ji really can't look down on them. Even the previous six Xianbei merchants were not very happy to accept their allegiance.
What really makes Shang Ji salivate is the population of nearly 10 million in Liubu Xianbei!
As for the combat effectiveness of the six Xianbei armies, to put it mildly, the quality of some of the dismantled armies when Shang Ji rectified military affairs was higher than theirs!
The main reason for accepting the surrender of the six Xianbei nobles was to rely on them to temporarily control the Xianbei herdsmen. And these scum in Xianbei in the east did not have this treatment, and the merchants simply extorted some money and goods.
Anyway, in the eyes of Shang Ji, the Eastern Xianbei after this battle has basically become the back garden of the Shang Army, and they can come and go as much as they want, and the Eastern Xianbei has no ability or courage to stop it!
Shang Ji is greedy for the remaining population of Xianbei in the east, but Pingzhou's digestion capacity is limited, and it takes two or three months to absorb and digest the six Xianbei, and it is easy to make too many people at one time. Shang Ji simply deposited them in the grassland temporarily, and occasionally led the army to fight the autumn breeze when he was interested, which could be regarded as military training.
"From now on, every group of ten people, form a team with the people you know best, complete the group within a quarter of an hour, and those who have not determined the belonging of the time will be executed immediately!"
Although the Xianbei nobles didn't understand the meaning of Shang Ji's actions, they acted extremely efficiently under the threat of the butcher's knife, and completed the teaming as required in less than half of the time!
"Very good, from now on, any form of communication between the various squads and between the squad members is strictly prohibited, and those who violate the order will be killed!"
After speaking, Shang Ji clapped his hands again, and immediately a large number of pen, ink, paper, and inkstones were sent by the Black Armor Xuanqi.
"From now on, you write down the ransom you think you should pay according to your status, wealth, and power, and then evaluate the ransom that your team members should pay separately." After speaking, Shang Ji showed a demonic smile: "Evaluate it carefully!" If I found out that your self-determined ransom amount was too different from the average ransom amount assessed by your teammates, I would kill someone! ”
After a pause, Shang Ji added: "Of course, if the amount of ransom you believe exceeds the evaluation of your teammates by a large margin, and you really have the ability to pay, then I am very supportive, but if I find out who is playing tricks on me in the end, I will guarantee that he will die a miserable death!" ”
"Don't try to help your teammates lower their Appraisal Value, the one in your squad with the lowest Appraisal Value will be killed on the spot! If you can risk your life to save money for your teammates, then I can do it for you! Of course, to prevent you from rambling, the one with a significantly higher than average rating will also be killed on the spot! ”
Every time Shang Ji said a word, the faces of the Xianbei captives turned pale, and in the end, they saw dozens of Xianbei nobles with faces like frost, and they looked at Shang Ji with wide eyes in horror, and their eyes were full of resentment that could not be hidden.
Shang Ji's trick is too ruthless, and everyone can't communicate with each other. For the sake of your own life, you must write as high as possible, but not too high, otherwise you will also risk being killed.
And the safest thing to do is to write your ransom price higher, so that it must be foolproof! But this is tantamount to taking a knife and cutting flesh on one's own body!
A group of black-armored horsemen with guns stood next to this group of Xianbei nobles, and immediately warned with spears at the slightest movement, and directly pierced the heart the second time.
After killing seven or eight Xianbei nobles in a row, this group of people was finally honest.
Although his face was about to turn into juice, he still honestly assessed it.
It's just that every word written seems to be a posture of cutting two catties of meat, which is really unbearable!
Shang Ji had other things to deal with, so he didn't have time to grind here, so he simply let Gongsun Du stare here, and he turned around and left.
"How about Ziyi's battle results, have you counted them" Shang Ji walked into another tent, and Tai Shici was counting the results.
"Lord, what a bumper harvest!" Tai Shici's face was happy, and he excitedly introduced: "In this battle, we captured a total of about 3 million horses, including nearly 1.8 million war horses of all levels, 8 million cattle, more than 30 million sheep, 800,000 sets of intact weapons and armor (garbage goods), about 12 million gold, as well as a large number of architectural drawings, animal skins, cheese and grain and other materials. The total value of the property is more than 100 million gold, and the specific amount has to be returned to Pingzhou, please don't send someone to evaluate it in detail! ”
Eighty percent of these belongings were Liubu Xianbei, but Shang Ji didn't plan to return them to them, and they didn't have the courage to come to Shang Ji to ask for it. Naturally, these became the trophies of the merchants.
In fact, the total assets of the six Xianbei are definitely more than these, they have been hunted down all the way, and they have been forced to abandon some of their belongings before, and there are still a large number of valuables such as gold and silver jewelry that are easy to carry in their tribe. After all, this is the perennial accumulation of nearly 10 million Xianbei, and it is impossible to have only that.
Of course, Shang Ji will not squeeze them out.
Because of the development of the situation, the conditions of attachment mentioned by Shang Ji before are no longer appropriate. Shang Ji doesn't plan to play any more intermediate links. Directly pulled them down in batches to the Yanhuang Temple and naturalized, but distributed them to fill the population all over Pingzhou.
Anyway, at present, I don't dare to say no to Shang Ji if I borrow the courage of the two of them!
These people will become the cornerstone of Pingzhou's development, just like ordinary mainland immigrants. Keeping some of your personal belongings is more conducive to quickly integrating into the environment and settling down faster.
"Ziyi, send people to gather people among the six Xianbei to help migrate these spoils. Send a message to the other driver and get him ready to deal with the large amount of loot. Give orders to Zilong and Huchen to speed up the march and hurry up to meet us! ”
The combat power of 100,000 black-armored Xuanqi cavalry is naturally not available, but it is necessary to guard against the captured Xianbei rebellion, and to beware of the eastern Xianbei killing a horse gun, and at the same time, it also sent some people to assist the migration of the six Xianbei. In the previous battle, the main forces of the six Xianbei were wiped out, and for the safety of the population, the merchants had to divide their troops to protect them, and finally there was a huge amount of loot to take care of.
These are not things that can be solved simply by being strong in battle, the black armor Xuanqi has no skills, and urgently needs a trustworthy army to share the work!
