After these wounded soldiers were dealt with, another group of soldiers from the Tang Dynasty came in soon, but this time these soldiers came in to select people. The prisoners had been divided into different teams according to their number before they came in.
The group of soldiers from the Tang Dynasty who came in began to select prisoners again, but they were not selecting other prisoners, but some prisoners who could cook. After they were selected, bags of food were soon transported to the prisoner camp.
Then these Datang soldiers began to organize them to build stoves for themselves, and asked these soldiers to take them to the surrounding forests to cut wood and so on.
And when they had their first meal in the prisoner camp, Datang silenced them again.
Because their first meal was actually white-flour steamed buns, and everyone who saw the stew was salivating. Was there meat in it? ! Although it’s not much meat, it’s still meat!
This...is this food for prisoners?
But they soon understood that these meals... were not for the prisoners. In other words, Datang did not distinguish between the prisoners and their own soldiers at all.
Because the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty who were supervising them also ate with them, and during the eating process, many prisoners learned from prisoners who knew how to cook and were pulled out to help, that the soldiers in other barracks of the Tang Dynasty also ate. Just like them.
Because these prisoners went to help, washing vegetables, chopping vegetables, chopping firewood, etc., all the ingredients were the same.
It's hard to keep them silent. These meals...even if they were in Goguryeo's normal state, they couldn't eat them, let alone that they were prisoners now.
Did Datang take them as prisoners?
Yes, they had to work, but the work was not heavy, and their wounded were treated, and not just once.
All the wounded were treated according to their different injuries, and some even had their medicine changed twice a day.
And what surprised them was that many of the wounded who they thought were seriously injured and could hardly survive actually survived, and their injuries quickly stabilized with the treatment of Datang's soldiers.
This scene alone touched the hearts of many prisoners.
Because rescuing the wounded is nothing, but treating the wounded as a human being is the most rare thing.
They don't understand any big principles, but they do understand what sincerity is.
It was like a few people near the city wall whose legs and arms were directly broken due to the explosion.
An injury like this would basically mean death in Goguryeo. Even their superiors would not care about it. At most, they would bandage the wound and then throw it there to fend for themselves.
But after the Tang Dynasty people carried them back, several soldiers, whom they called military doctors, first gave them anesthesia, then sawed off their legs and arms, which were only partially connected to the flesh, stopped their bleeding, and treated their wounds.
At least now, it seems that these people have obviously stabilized, and their faces are much rosier.
According to the military doctors, if they could survive five days, they would survive.
Although they prisoners didn't know how to treat illnesses, they also knew that they would die faster if they kept their ragged arms and legs. Because in the military, injuries like this are often seen.
Don't talk about it being like this. Many times, some wounds that are obviously just ordinary stab wounds can eventually fester and lead to death.
…
Li Shiji didn't prepare for a quick attack, or... because they took the city too fast. Even if they delayed it for more than ten days, it would be equivalent to a quick attack, so naturally there was no rush.
It is not difficult to attack Goguryeo, but it is difficult to capture Goguryeo stably and steadily.
After confirming that Goguryeo basically had no ability to resist, Li Shiji began to think about subsequent rule plans.
According to His Highness King Qin's approach, enemies can be transformed and assassins can become spies. So aren't these ordinary people much easier to deal with? In this case, Li Shiji will naturally pursue perfection.
In the past few years as the highest official in Youzhou, what he has learned most is the way to deal with these things, or to learn His Highness's method of winning the hearts and minds of the people, and to pass on His Highness's policies, benevolence, and ideas to these ordinary people in Goguryeo. common people.
Li Shiji did not forget that Liu Zhao said that in the area near the border between Datang and Goguryeo, a considerable number of people actually gravitated towards the Tang Dynasty.
Therefore, he decided to take care of the rear affairs and run the business while fighting. In this way, even if they cannot defeat it within a year, the Tang Dynasty can even regard this place as their own territory!
As for how to run a business, to be honest, although Li Shiji has learned a lot, his mastery is average. He is still good at leading troops to fight.
However, the words His Royal Highness Prince Li Chengqian said to him before they attacked Liaodong City suddenly awakened Li Shiji.
Li Chengqian's original words were "How to govern these Goguryeo people? It's very simple, you just treat them as Tang people."
With just such a sentence, Li Shiji suddenly realized that some things don't need to be done very specially, as long as everyone is treated equally. He is not proficient in the way His Highness governs the people, and he is not as good as His Highness King Qin in some details.
But how are some of the policies of His Highness the King of Qin implemented in Youzhou and other places? As the highest official, he has achieved his goals. Now, can't he just follow the example of a cat and a tiger?
With this understanding, Li Shiji immediately put many actions together.
For example, in the current Liaodong City, Cheng Huailiang, who is currently stationed in Liaodong City, received only two words of orders: maintain stability!
Different from the feelings of the captives, although the 40,000 to 50,000 people in Liaodong City were also panicked, they still had some hope in their hearts, because no matter which court it was, it would generally not kill the people after conquering a certain place.
Of course, massacre is another way of saying it, but there are very few such things in history, and the Tang Dynasty... probably won't massacre the city. The most likely thing is to rob some property, or ask them to hand over some food.
In addition, as long as they do not provoke the Tang army, they should not kill anyone.
However, what the people of Liaodong City did not expect was that after they spent a restless day, at dawn the next day, some people were ready to leave their homes to inquire about the news. After all, they did not hear anything from the city last night. There was no movement inside, no fire, no crying, no screams.
This proved that the Tang army did not do anything to the people in the city. The next day, some bolder people wanted to go out to find out the news.
Because Datang's attitude towards them was closely related to their life and death.
After these people left their homes, they soon noticed that groups of soldiers from the Tang Dynasty were leading people who were originally responsible for public security in the city to gather people from area to area.
It was under such circumstances that Ma Fan was summoned to the intersection of an alley in front of his home.
