The three selected prisoners were taken away from the barracks where the prisoners were held by Ding Sanyou.
"Tong Guard, thank you very much this time." Ding Sanyou hugged his fists towards Tong Qing in front of him, and then said, "Master Wang is anxious to see them, I will take them there first, and we can have a drink together next time. "
"Then I'll be waiting for your drink." Tong Qing agreed with a smile.
But both of them knew in their hearts that, given their positions, there was not much hope of getting together for a drink in their free time.
Tong Qing left several soldiers to accompany Ding Sanyou and others, and escorted the three prisoners to Wang Yuncheng's tent.
"Brother Tian, can you discuss with them and ask them to let us go!"
On the way to the big tent, one of the prisoners said cautiously to Tian Qi who was following him.
Tian Qi frowned slightly and said, "Whether I let you go or not is up to me."
"Brother Tian, please just let me go because of our good relationship in the past. I promise that I will never be your enemy in the future." The other party said with a begging look on his face.
Tian Qi said impatiently: "I've said it before, it's not up to me to let you go or not. There's no point in begging me. I would like to advise you, be honest and don't have any petty thoughts."
The prisoner choked up after being reprimanded.
Soon, the group of people walked outside Wang Yuncheng's tent.
Tian Qi walked a few steps to his former commander at Yanmen Guards and whispered: "Chief, I don't know whether it is right or wrong to bring you here. I hope you don't blame me."
After saying that, he walked quickly and followed Ding Sanyou into the big tent.
The chief was stunned for a moment when he heard Tian Qi's words, and looked at Tian Qi's back as he walked into the tent in a daze.
Not long after, Staff Feng, who entered the tent first, came out, looked at the prisoners outside the tent and said, "You guys, come in with me."
The three prisoners followed obediently into the tent.
"Shizheng, it's the three of them." Staff Officer Feng pointed at the three prisoners.
"The villain has met the general."
When the three prisoners saw Wang Yuncheng sitting in the middle of the big tent, they guessed that he was a big shot among the rebels who captured Yanmen Pass, and hurriedly knelt on the ground and kowtowed.
"You go down first!" Wang Yuncheng waved his hand towards Staff Feng.
Staff Officer Feng retreated.
The three prisoners kneeling on the ground lowered their heads to the ground, not daring to make the slightest move out of bounds.
"These people all have people close to them in Yanmen Guards, such as him." Ding Sanyou said, pointing at a prisoner kneeling on the ground, "This person is in Zhou Shihui, and he is in the same team." He also has a younger brother, and the other two people are in similar situations."
Tian Qi, who was standing aside, heard this and looked at Ding Sanyou in surprise.
He had chosen the candidate, and he was even thinking in his mind that if he chose to surrender alone when selecting prisoners, would Ding Sanyou let him choose another candidate?
After listening to Ding Sanyou's introduction, Wang Yuncheng smiled with satisfaction.
I have some admiration for the people employed by the Foreign Intelligence Agency. Even if they are ordinary spies, they are very meticulous in their work and think of everything they can think of in advance.
"All three of you, please stand up!" Wang Yuncheng picked up the big tea vat and took a sip of water.
The three prisoners kneeling on the ground raised their heads and looked nervously at Wang Yuncheng, who was sitting in the middle, but no one took the initiative to get up.
Ding Sanyou, who was standing aside, said: "Since Master Wang asked you to stand up, stop kneeling and get up!"
The three prisoners slowly stood up.
"You three are captured surrendered soldiers. According to the rules of the Tiger Flag, you need to be dealt with. Even if you are not killed, you will be taken to mine and build roads." Wang Yuncheng said to the three prisoners in front of him.
Plop.
There was a prisoner on the spot who knelt on the ground.
The bodies of the two remaining prisoners who were still standing were also trembling slightly.
Wang Yuncheng only glanced at it and continued: "Now I give you a chance. Not only can you survive without being punished, but you can also join my army directly. If you are unwilling to stay, I can let you go home and even give you the land for free." Go plant it.”
"We are willing to stay, willing to stay."
Several prisoners rushed to say.
Wang Yuncheng said: "Don't worry, if you want to stay, you have to get things done. If you can't get it done, you will still be treated as prisoners."
“We’re willing to do things, we’re willing to do things.”
Several prisoners knew that they had no choice. If they wanted to survive, they could only agree to the other party's conditions.
"It's not too late to hear what's going on before agreeing. Don't worry, I won't force you." Wang Yuncheng said in a calm tone.
Several prisoners looked at Wang Yuncheng nervously, curious about what was going on.
Wang Yuncheng took a sip of water and continued: "At dawn, I will release you back to Zhenwuwei. No matter what method the three of you use, you must let the people of Daizhou know that the place captured by the Tiger-Character Banner army will be given to the people. The land will be divided, and every household will lose their land. Of course, if any of you can convince the Zhenwuwei officials to join us voluntarily, or Kaicheng surrenders, I can make you a corps commander in our army."
The three prisoners who heard this looked at each other.
It is not difficult to publicize the matter of dividing land. After all, the matter of dividing land among the people of Datong is a big deal. People in Daizhou usually hear about it. However, the news is true or false, and the people are not sure when the tiger-character flag comes. They can really get the land for free, but after all, there are still some people who are willing to believe in dividing the land.
As for getting Daizhou officials to surrender, it was simply impossible.
Even if they become prisoners of thieves, they are not willing to become thieves, let alone those big men.
"If the three of you are unwilling, I won't force you. I'll let you escort you back now and wait for the next treatment. I will arrange for other candidates to accept the matter." Wang Yuncheng asked the three prisoners in front of him.
Originally, he did not need to personally arrange this kind of thing as the army commander. However, the army had just taken Yanmen Pass and there were many things going on. Similarly, he did not want too many people to know about this matter, so he used spies from the Foreign Intelligence Agency to garrison troops at Yanmen Pass. Being familiar with each other, meeting these prisoners in person can also give these prisoners a little more trust.
"I'm willing to do it." The commander, the only one among the three prisoners, was the first to speak.
"We would like that too."
Seeing that someone was the first to agree, the remaining two prisoners also hurriedly agreed.
Wang Yuncheng turned to look at Staff Feng, who was standing in the distance, and said: "Counsel Feng, you will be directly responsible for these three. Within three days, I want to see the changes in Daizhou City. Okay, take them down to get some food." stuff and then arrange for them to take a rest.”
"Yes." Staff Feng agreed, stood up and said to the three prisoners, "You guys follow me, and I will arrange a place for you to live."
Since people have to go back to Zhenwu Guard to do their work, it's natural that they can't go back to their previous barracks.
