As soon as Li Chengcheng finished speaking, Cheng Chu patted him on the shoulder silently.
"Why do you want so much? Can other people know about the things we did in Japan? Even if others know, isn't this arranged by Master? What does it have to do with His Highness the Crown Prince?"
"Forehead?"
Li Chengcheng choked suddenly because of Cheng Chumo, while Xu Yunyan's face was a bit ugly.
"This and that, Cheng Chumo!"
Hearing the voice calling him, Cheng Chumo saw Xu Yunyan tremble suddenly.
"Master, please listen to my quibbles. No, please listen to my explanation. I didn't mean to offend Master."
Just when Cheng Chumo was frightened here and wanted to explain to Xu Yunyan, Xu Yunyan waved his hand.
"You don't need to explain to me, you are right!
I'm just telling you. How could what I said be wrong? His Royal Highness is always right.
What's wrong with me, Cheng Chumo, always siding with His Highness the Crown Prince?
If Master feels something is wrong, at worst, I, Cheng Chumo, will have to bear the responsibility alone. If I can no longer bear the burden, Yuchi Baolin, you will have to take it.
Yuchi Baolin can't do it either, but Qin Huaiyu can do it too. "
Cheng Chumo said this, and Li Chengqian looked at them and smiled happily.
"You guys, what are you doing here?
Master must have made proper arrangements, why are you so entangled here, don't you think so, Master? "
Li Chengqian kicked the ball back to Xu Yunyan. Although Li Chengqian did consider his own reputation after Li Chengcheng spoke, he also considered Xu Yunyan's reputation here.
Indeed, as Cheng Chumo said, if anything happened, all the blame would fall on Xu Yunyan's head, and Xu Yunyan looked at Li Chengqian and said casually.
"Your Majesty the Crown Prince, if our people of the Tang Dynasty are forced to go out to work in labor unions, which will delay the work in the fields and reduce food production, or if there is an accident at home, there will be no way to solve it at the moment.
In such a long term, although what I said does not exist, there will be changes, and now that we have these prisoners of war, they dare to roam freely on the sea, that's all, but they actually dare to attack our country, the Tang Dynasty City, if you kill our people in the Tang Dynasty, they will pay the price for what they have done. "
Xu Yunyan didn't make it clear, but Li Chengqian was so smart. He just talked about corvee and then mentioned these prisoners of war.
】
After Xu Yunyan pointed out these prisoners of war, Li Chengqian clapped his hands and praised them.
"What Master said is wonderful, so wonderful. As long as we escort them to the Tang Dynasty and let them do corvee work for our Datang Dynasty to atone for their sins, not only can the people along the coast no longer suffer from the pirates' hard work, but it can also relieve the suffering of the corvee labor in many places in our Datang Dynasty. , this is a great good.”
As soon as Li Chengxian made the decision, everyone here said complimentary words to Xu Yunyan.
"The Champion has thought it through properly. I didn't expect that the Champion would be able to come up with such a clever plan so easily. You might as well tell us more about the Champion's tricks, so that we can be treated as if we are just filling in the numbers in front of His Highness the Crown Prince. Every day. It’s not appropriate to be a guard.”
Li Chengcheng asked Xu Yunyan shamelessly here, asking Xu Yunyan to give him more guidance, and Xu Yunyan looked at Li Chengcheng and spoke slowly.
"I will explain the art of war to you when I have time, but now is not the time to explain the art of war. You didn't see that in this short time, our soldiers have entered the city and killed the Japanese who once had the power to fight on the city. Have all the soldiers been detained?
Let's go forward and ask about the situation in this Japanese country, and see if this person can be of use to us. If he can obey in our name, we can spare his life. "
As soon as Xu Yunyan finished speaking, Cheng Chumo scratched his head.
"Master, didn't you just say not to kill people? Either let them lead the charge for us, or send them to the country to work as coolies. Why do you suddenly want to see if they can be used by me? No matter which one, I have to For my use?"
Although Cheng Chumo was a stick, he was a bit one-minded. After saying this sentence, he realized that he had said it wrong.
If he doesn't lead the charge and refuses to cooperate with them, doesn't that mean he can't be used by them?
Just when Cheng Chumo was scratching his head in embarrassment and not knowing what to do, Xu Yunyan looked at him.
"After all, there are still some people living in the Japanese country, and there are ancient secretaries. They should be the descendants of the three thousand boys and girls Xu Fu took away for the first emperor. Shouldn't we regard them as our people of the Tang Dynasty? Is general jurisdiction generalized across the board?
If this is the case, even if the Tang Dynasty conquers Japan, it will definitely not be convinced by us. Once my army leaves, what will they do? "
Xu Yunyan's words were very thought-provoking. After he spoke such a long speech, Li Chengqian looked at him here.
"But since the founding of the Tang Dynasty, more than nine hundred years have passed since the pre-Qin Dynasty. Can these people really still care about the Tang Dynasty? They are Qin people after all."
???????????????Xu Yunyan smiled when he heard Li Chengqian say this.
"After Qin came Han, after Han came Jin, and after Jin came Sui."
Xu Yunyan didn't say much, but Li Chengqian knew that no matter how the dynasties changed, they would still be the ones in charge in the end.
Li Chengqian's eyes suddenly shone, but before Li Chengqian could think of anything important, Xu Yunyan continued.
"They have lived here for more than nine hundred years, and they may be incompatible with us, but after all, broken bones and connected tendons still have the same blood. If they admit it, it will be fine. If they don't admit it, we can only say that we chose the wrong place. Then send all the adult men in this area to the inland to do corvee labor, so that they can still afford to be our enemies."
What Xu Yunyan said was very frightening.
"What's the population? Will this cause a big problem?"
Xu Yunyan waved his hand, "Not too much, not too much. It's just the population of the Tang Dynasty. Do you think it's a lot? If you think it's too much, you can ask them to mine for us in the Japanese country. If they work so hard, just reduce their number." Yet?"
The more Xu Yun spoke, the more cold-blooded he became, while the others couldn't help but tremble in their hearts when they heard this.
"Master, how can you be so inhumane? They are also living people."
"A living person?"
Xu Yunyan snorted coldly, feeling very uncomfortable.
Do they still have the qualifications to be human beings? When you think about the things they do, they don't feel like humans anymore.
Xu Yunyan gradually remembered what they had done in the future, and could not help but gritted his teeth and clenched his fists.
"If I have the chance, I will make them never be able to do these things, make them regret being born in this world, and make them regret that they have the ability to do evil."
The more Xu Yunyan said this, the more everyone present kept sighing at Xu Yunyan's sympathy for those who encountered unexpected events. It is indeed Xu Yunyan's hometown.
You dare to invade them and cause them casualties. Although they are just ordinary working people, you can do this. Then let's see what we can do better than you.
None of them blamed Xu Yunyan, not even Zibi Tianchao Shangbang, who wanted to seek justice for these people after seeing what they had done.
Fortunately, during this expedition, there were no literati who could explain it with kindness, justice, etiquette, wisdom and trust. Instead, Xu Yunyan, as the commander-in-chief of the army, did whatever he said, which made these Tang Army soldiers think of their compatriots who died tragically.
Many of them have nothing to do with them or now, but if you push forward or push back a few years, if they are still alive, it is impossible to say that they will still have some relationship.
Isn't this just a grudge against them? Otherwise, they are all Tang people now. Wouldn't being enemies with them Tang people mean being enemies with them?
But before Xu Yunyan said much, a group of people from Onomu City, a Japanese country in the distance, had already been taken into custody.
Looking at the hundreds of prisoners, Xu Yunyan waved his hand, and instantly hundreds more Tang troops stepped forward to surround them.
Onoki saw this scene and hurriedly shouted for mercy.
"General, spare your life, General, spare your life! We have surrendered and will never have any bad intentions again. Why are you still staring at us like this and not giving us a way out?"
Ohnoki said this, and the translator translated the flower language he said and told it to Xu Yunyan, and Xu Yunyan looked at Changsun Chong and said it here.
"They can't escape the death penalty. Tell them clearly about the crimes they committed."
After Xu Yunyan arranged it, Changsun Chong looked at Xu Yunyan doubtfully.
"???????????????Master, what did I tell them and what crime they committed? I don't know much about this either."
Changsun Chong looked a little stunned. Xu Yunyan temporarily put the crimes in his mind that were beyond everyone's imagination and looked at Changsun Chong talking here.
"Just think about the people who died in our Zhaojia Village, the salt factory near Zhaojia Village, and the people on the road from the salt factory to the county seat. They are all innocent, so kind, and so hospitable. , but what about them? What did they do? If you provoke us, the Tang Dynasty, you will have to pay the price! If we, the Tang Dynasty, attack them, they will bring it upon themselves."
Although Xu Yunyan did not say it very harshly, Changsun Chong understood the seriousness of the matter. Although he roughly knew what was going on, it was not like he had not followed Xu Yunyan all the way from Huainan to the seaside, and it was not like he had not witnessed the tragic scene at the seaside.
Immediately, Changsun Chong pointed at Ohnomu and cursed loudly. While cursing, he talked about the things the Japanese people did on the border of Datang.
Changsun Chong didn't say anything, but it was okay. After saying this, Ohnomu fell to the ground with a plop.
"How could this be? We really didn't mean it, and we really didn't know these things!"
Onoki was wailing and begging for his life while shirking responsibility.
"We don't know, we really don't know, please forgive me!"
However, Ohnoki also cried bitterly here in order to impress Xu Yunyan with what he said, with tears of gratitude and a look of changing his past.
Xu Yunyan looked at him like this, and then looked at the people next to him who originally followed Ohnoki's orders. They were also crying, begging for mercy, and then took a step forward.
"Listen to me, you all, you can avoid death, but you can't escape living!"
Onoki and the others could not understand this sentence, but looking at the Tang Army soldiers who took a step forward again, they were so frightened that they hugged each other like crazy, and they cried even more. It was as funny as it was funny.
But before they could despair, Changsun Chong had already translated Xu Yunyan's words. Ohnoki and the others seemed to have grasped a life-saving straw and hurriedly provided assurance.
"Sir, we will definitely do what you say. What do you want us to do? We will all obey, as long as you don't kill us."
Ohnoki was here to guarantee, Xu Yunyan was here touching his chin, thinking about how to study these things. Next to him, Li Chengqian looked like master, we support whatever you say, which made him even more determined that Xu Yunyan would not let them go easily. determination.
