When Bai Cejun heard Xun Peng's words, the corners of his mouth raised slightly. Xun Peng is not willing to give in. If he finds the slightest chance, it depends on how Lin Feng answers?
Do you want to see Lin Feng get into trouble?
You are bringing shame on yourself!
Bai Cejun is the coach and he also has ideas. It's just that Bai Cejun didn't say it out loud. Anyway, he was not in a hurry and listened more to what the people below said.
Wang Lie also looked over, with deep anticipation in his eyes.
Wang Lie had collaborated with Lin Feng, and their relationship was unusual. He was naturally on Lin Feng's side.
Including Tie Yifan, who also looked at Lin Feng curiously.
Tie Yifan is the great master. He is also the ancestor who controls the wind and rain in the world of martial arts. He is the most powerful martial arts master. But in front of Lin Feng, Tie Yifan felt a little scared from the bottom of his heart.
Lin Feng's calculation was too deep.
This attack on Da Qin was all run by Lin Feng.
Xu Changjie died in Lin Feng's plan.
Qi Feixiong is also like this.
He himself was plotted against.
Seeing everyone looking at him, Lin Feng explained: "The truth is actually not complicated. Counting the previous prisoners, the number of prisoners we have in our hands has exceeded 30,000. This is not a small number, 30,000 prisoners, They involve more than 100,000 families."
"If you include their relatives, there are hundreds of thousands of people."
"Killing these prisoners will mean that countless people in the Xia Kingdom will be hostile to Da Qin and will fight against Da Qin. After all, the hatred for killing a son, the hatred for killing a father, the hatred for killing a husband, etc., these great hatreds are all irreconcilable. .”
"If the people of Xia Kingdom are affected by these things, countless people will definitely resist Da Qin and call Da Qin a violent Qin."
"If this battle is just to defeat the Xia Kingdom, killing and capturing prisoners does not matter."
"But we are not fighting for the sake of fighting."
"We came to attack the Xia Kingdom to destroy the Xia Kingdom, to incorporate all the Xia Kingdom's territory into the Great Qin, and for the people of the Xia Kingdom to become the subjects of the Great Qin. Since we want to annex the Xia Kingdom, we must consider the long term and consider the long term. In the future, Da Qin will stand on the foundation of the world for all eternity."
"People's hearts and minds are very important."
"So the more than 30,000 prisoners cannot be killed and must be kept. We can even make them help our Great Qin."
Lin Feng talked eloquently and expressed his thoughts.
When he returned to the camp last night, Lin Feng was thinking about the prisoners. Wang Lie led his troops to pursue Xia's army, and he was bound to win. Under this premise, if the number of prisoners increases, the problem of prisoners must be solved.
Xun Peng said directly: "Master Lin, the general is still a little confused."
Lin Feng said: "General Xun, please speak."
Xun Peng said seriously: "We want to invade the Xia Kingdom from Da Qin and win the hearts and minds of the Xia Kingdom. This is very difficult. Countless people in the Xia Kingdom think that our Da Qin is a barbarian and a ferocious Qin. What's more, even if No matter what, we are invading the Xia Kingdom, so the people of the Xia Kingdom will definitely resist us."
"This group of prisoners is resistant to us."
"It's very difficult to recruit people like this."
"At the same time, if you want to stay, you will consume a lot of food, and you will also need to spend manpower and material resources to keep an eye on them. The loss to us will be extremely huge. In this case, killing them is actually the best."
Xun Peng looked serious and said: "I think it is almost impossible to get them to help us, Great Qin."
"Wrong, what you said is completely wrong."
Lin Feng directly denied it.
Xun Peng said: "I would like to hear the details."
Lin Feng explained: "The people of Xia State, especially ordinary soldiers and common people, will not resist Great Qin or resist Great Qin. Just like in this battle now, they did not fight to the end, but directly chose to surrender."
"Ordinary people of Xia Kingdom, these ordinary soldiers of Xia Kingdom don't ask for much, they just want to live a normal life."
"Under the rule of Da Qin, although the past few years were barren, the people of Da Qin at least lived and worked in peace and contentment. What about the people of Xia State? Countless people had to turn to bandits in order to survive. Countless families were destroyed and people died, and the people's lives were difficult."
"Great Qin is here to save the people from water and fire."
"Those who want to resist Da Qin think that Da Qin is a barbarian. They are not ordinary people. They have difficulty living and wish that Da Qin would come to destroy Xia. Those who want to resist Da Qin are the dignitaries of Xia and the local people of Xia. Rich family.”
"The Xia Kingdom's official government is corrupt. Who does it benefit?"
"It's convenient for these big families."
"These people took advantage of the time when the government was ineffective to further annex local land, occupy resources, and even plunder the population, constantly increasing their strength. Although the Xia Kingdom is still there, the Xia Kingdom's control over the local areas has become weaker and weaker. "
"Many local affairs are decided by the big family."
Lin Feng's eyes were sharp and he said: "For example, the Xu family of the Xia Kingdom's official department, Xu Changjie, was indeed upright in Anyi and worked hard for the court. But the Xu family is in Runan, covering an area of hundreds of thousands of acres. Can you imagine it? A family occupies hundreds of thousands of acres.”
"They don't pay taxes, evade taxes, and occupy countless resources. According to our land tax in Da Qin, this is a huge amount of money."
"These powerful people exploit the common people and prey on them."
"Only they will resist the Qin Dynasty, and they will call the Qin Dynasty a barbarian, because it is their interests that are harmed."
"The people will not resist us."
Lin Feng looked determined and said: "Our Great Qin is now attacking the Xia Kingdom, and all the people will definitely follow us. Of course, relying on these alone is definitely not enough. We need to further appease the people, win over the people, etc., in order to truly gain the support of the people."
Bai Cejun nodded quickly after hearing this.
well said.
Lin Feng's words were extremely reasonable.
Tie Yifan looked at Lin Feng and sighed in his heart. Li Chongfu was addicted to Taoism and allowed his sycophants to kill the Lin family. All this was retribution.
If Li Chongfu relies on the Lin family.
This is impossible!
How could Li Chong's family rely on the Lin family if they didn't care about world affairs?
Xun Peng thought for a while and continued: "Master Lin, according to your statement, the interests of the powerful people in Xia Kingdom have been harmed, and they will try their best to resist us. In this case, I am afraid that we will also be in a difficult situation in Xia Kingdom. Ah. If they take action, it will affect us."
"No, you're wrong again."
Lin Feng shook his head again.
Xun Peng smiled awkwardly. He was indeed curious and said again: "Please Mr. Lin, please clear up your doubts."
Lin Feng explained: "The reason is still simple. Today's Xia Kingdom is in ruins. The Xia Kingdom has been exploiting the people for so many years, making it impossible for the people in the Xia Kingdom to live. Therefore, wars are everywhere, and people are falling into grass everywhere. Rebellion for the bandits.”
"If the people can still survive and withstand the oppression, both the people and the powerful will resist the Qin Dynasty. Because their lives do not want to be broken, but now, the people cannot survive."
"The dignitaries of Xia Kingdom really don't want us to come."
"The problem is that people everywhere rebelled, directly surrounded the residences of the powerful, besieged and killed the powerful, and massacred these high-ranking people. As a result, the powerful in many places were directly killed."
"Even in some other places, bandits have not yet raging, but because of the local chaos, merchants and dignitaries are trembling with fear. What is the most powerful thing about the powerful is that they have people in the officialdom and land resources, but these cannot be converted into their Combat ability.”
"Although the local powerful families have private soldiers, these private soldiers encountered a large-scale attack by bandits, and the big families were unable to withstand it."
"The foundation of the big family has been attacked by bandits, and the power of the powerful cannot stop us."
"Even many local dignitaries are eager for us to go there. Only if we stabilize the place, they will not be slaughtered. At least most of the dignitaries will definitely not have the power to cause trouble for us."
Lin Feng's eyes were sharp and he said loudly: "At present, when we attack the Xia Kingdom, it is a true response to the people, not an invasion. This is also our best time. Li Chongfu exploits the people and makes them miserable. This is sending troops. fundamental."
"Okay, well said."
A loud voice came from outside the big tent.
But Xu Chen entered.
He had been on vigil last night and came again in the morning after taking a short rest. As soon as I arrived at the entrance of the camp, I heard Lin Feng talking loudly.
After Xu Chen stood still, he said Amitabha, looked at Lin Feng, and said solemnly: "Donor Lin's words are very good. It is really difficult for the people of Xia Kingdom to live. I, Baima Temple, have taken in many homeless people. , it really can’t be accommodated, so we can only let the people leave.”
"The people who are wandering everywhere really can't live without falling into the trap of bandits."
"It's very difficult for you to be a good citizen."
"To give a simple example, if you cultivate land owned by powerful landlords, in addition to the annual rent, you also have to go to the landlord's home to give gifts during holidays. If you don't give gifts, you will be targeted."
"After the autumn harvest, you have to pay a certain amount of money to pay the tenant rent, such as grain."
"In addition, there are various taxes imposed by the court, which cannot be avoided. People who sell their fields, their ancestral property, their children and their daughters must also pay them."
"People are suffering!"
Xu Chen sighed with a look on his face and said: "In the end, the people can only rebel."
Xun Peng had no more words to say at this moment, and said leisurely: "In this case, more than 30,000 prisoners must stay. We have to keep so many people in the army, and we must consume a lot of food every day. Our logistics supplies, It’s too much pressure.”
When Xu Chen heard Xun Peng's words, he roughly understood.
Lin Feng wanted to keep the prisoners. In Xu Chen's view, this was an act of mercy. Xu Chen did not express his position. He entered the camp just to ensure the safety of Bai Cejun, the daily guard.
Xu Chen does not interfere with the rest.
Bai Cejun looked at Lin Feng and asked: "Lin Feng, this group of prisoners, even if they are provided with less food and given less food every day, they consume a lot. How do you plan to deal with it? Send them back to our rear in Daqin for resettlement. Or should we stay in the army and prepare for reorganization?"
"Neither!"
Lin Feng shook his head.
Bai Cejun said: "Then how do you arrange it?"
Xun Peng immediately agreed and said: "Master Lin, do you want to release these people directly? After these people are released, I am afraid they will return to the Xia Kingdom's army. It is extremely disadvantageous for us."
Lin Feng confidently said: "Why not just let them go? Bai Shuai, please call all the prisoners together. I want to lecture all the prisoners. At the same time, the army will prepare another batch of dry food. This is for those who leave." This time, we not only have to release the people, but also win the hearts of the soldiers of the Xia Kingdom, and collect a group of soldiers who are willing to serve the Qin Dynasty."
Bai Cejun said directly: "Everything is up to you, I will arrange it immediately."
Xun Peng frowned. He instinctively wanted to ask, but he swallowed the words when they reached his lips.
Lin Feng made the decision directly.
Bai Cejun also made arrangements directly.
What did he ask?
Bai Cejun quickly made arrangements, and in a short time, all the prisoners were gathered together.
Lin Feng, Bai Cejun, Wang Lie, Xun Peng, as well as Xu Chen, Zhishan, Huan Suzhi, Cui Yuantu and others all came to the front of the prisoner formation.
Lin Feng, wearing a white robe, strode to the high platform set up in front of the prisoners, ready to lecture them.
He wanted to take this opportunity to win the hearts of Xia soldiers.
