The first batch of female relatives who fled to the Pure Land arrived in Hangu, numbering about six thousand.
They gathered at the city gate and faced the soldiers guarding the gate, but they looked as angry as if they were facing enemies.
"Let us out!"
"All women in the world are free, why are we not allowed to leave?"
"I don't want my identity as a citizen of Da Chu!"
"Quickly switch and release!"
"If you don't let us go, be careful as we ask Yaoguang Majesty to come and make the decision!"
These female relatives were shouting, but even if spittle splashed on their faces, the garrison soldiers who temporarily changed their defenses would not give an inch.
A silver-armored general stood on the city gate tower, looking down at the more than 6,000 excited women below.
"good."
Fan Chun grinned, showing two rows of beautiful white teeth.
"Intelligence shows that there are still about 120,000 people coming to Hangu."
"Compared to the three kingdoms of Wei, Han and Wu, the population loss of our Dachu state is the least."
"No wonder the second brother often says that ordinary people are the most pitiful and lovable people in the world."
"They are the most contented."
"Ninety percent of the people actually only want peace and prosperity for the country and the people in this life."
Hearing what Fan Chun said, several lieutenants next to him showed expressions of deep understanding.
The population of Dachu State exceeds 100 million.
Even though Lord Yaoguang was eloquent and his tongue was like a lotus flower, he only beguiled more than 120,000 people.
"Second brother said that most of these people who rush to abandon their country and family have been accustomed to living in luxury and wealth since they were young."
"This kind of people are the most naive."
"They take their wealth and food for granted, fantasize about and infinitely expand their power, but completely ignore their responsibilities."
"Letting these rice-worm-like wastes go is actually beneficial to Da Chu!"
After Fan Chun finished speaking, all the lieutenants looked puzzled.
"General, if that's the case, why don't you just switch it on and off?"
"The Duke of Jin also ordered the baggage troops to send a large number of...er...[gift packages from overseas Chinese from Chu]."
"This group of traitors, for their actions are tantamount to treason, they don't need to be severely punished, but they actually get gifts?"
Fan Chun smiled when he heard this.
The second brother's plan should not be disclosed to outsiders easily.
"Everyone, do you not trust my second brother?" Fan Chun asked with a smile.
"The general will not dare!"
Several lieutenants immediately responded in unison.
They have been trained by Fan's Trading Company since they were children, and they are absolute fans of Fan's business. There is no Emperor Chu in his eyes, only the word 'Fan'!
"quiet!!!"
Fan Chun suddenly shouted loudly.
Although there were thousands of people gathered below the city gate, his voice was drowned out.
"This general is the commander of the Chu garrison, Fan Chun."
As soon as these words came out, there was complete silence under the city gate.
Fan Chun?
The third child of the Fan family?
Although he is not the Grand Lieutenant of Chu State, he is actually the number one person in the Chu army!
Chu State has no record of using foreign troops in recent years.
But internally, Fan Chun was the first person to achieve local military success in suppressing rebellions and suppressing bandits.
Needless to say his military strategy, but the most well-known are two other things:
Be victorious and take no prisoners.
Especially the latter, which scared some of the female family members under the city wall into tears!
Hearing the cry, Fan Chun sneered.
That's it?
The pursuit of freedom?
The word freedom is so heavy. Besides, where can there be absolute freedom in the world?
Second brother has long said that all 'absolutes' are lies.
"Fellow compatriots."
"I have been ordered to come here specifically to see off all of my compatriots."
Hearing what Fan Chun said, the female relatives became commotion.
Someone who was brave asked tentatively: "When you say farewell, is it really just a farewell?"
Her imagination is quite rich, and she has already imagined the scene of the garrison sending her back to the west.
"certainly."
"My compatriots are about to travel to a foreign land. Although I, Duke Jin of Chu, are reluctant to leave, I still wish my compatriots a bright future."
Hearing him shouting "compatriots" one after another, some bold women directly denied it.
"From now on, we are no longer Dachu citizens."
"We all voluntarily take refuge in the Pure Land, which is our homeland!"
As soon as these words came out, all the garrison generals except Fan Chun showed angry faces.
They are all soldiers who protect their homes and countries. When they hear the people they protect say such words, they really want to jump off the tower and chop them all with a knife!
"oh?"
Fan Chun smiled, his tone still calm and calm.
"Are you all willing to give up your identity as a Chu citizen?"
"It doesn't matter even if your relatives, friends, lovers, and children are still in Chu State?"
After hearing these words, many people's faces indeed turned ugly, and even showed some signs of wavering.
Some people even began to miss their family members and couldn't help but cry.
"Don't be deceived by him!"
"How hard and boring is the life for women like us?"
"Fortunately, His Majesty Yaoguang is kind and has provided us with a real paradise."
"If you give up today, you will go back to the boring, boring and miserable life of wasting time."
"We women are all flowers. Only the real earth can nourish us. How can we be trapped in a small potted plant?"
These remarks are extremely deceptive.
Especially the last sentence made the women who had just felt a little regretful become angry from the bottom of their hearts!
Those relatives and loved ones who make them care and miss have become shackles and shackles that bind their lives!
hateful!
How hateful!
"Open the city gate and let us out!"
The women, whose faces were still wet with tears, looked at Fan Chun with hatred in their eyes.
It seemed as if all the depression and unhappiness in their lives in the past few years were caused by this man.
"Why."
"Second brother is right, I really shouldn't waste my time."
Fan Chun raised his right hand and made a gesture that only the garrison could understand.
Sudden!
Hundreds of soldiers escorted the baggage and quickly gathered below the city gate.
"Everyone."
Fan Chun's smile was as warm and gentle as the spring breeze.
"The Pure Land of Paradise is located in the west, with strong sunshine, strong wind and sand, and a dry climate."
"The Duke of Jin couldn't bear the fatigue of the journey and was worried about the acclimatization, so he specially sent a [Chu Qiao Gift Pack], one for each person."
Someone asked: "What's in the big gift bag? What does Chuqiao mean?"
Fan Chun replied: "The Duke of Jin has decreed that all our Chu people who live abroad will be called overseas Chinese. As for the gift packages, they are all daily necessities."
Hearing what he said, some people were unhappy.
"What expats?"
"From the moment we left the border of Da Chu, we became citizens of the Pure Land, so we don't care about our status as expats!"
"Daily necessities? My family is well off and I never lack these. Why do you need to give them to me?"
The crowd under the city wall began to chirp again, urging Fan Chun to open the door quickly.
They even threatened Fan Chun that if they dared to delay any longer, they would first file a complaint with His Majesty Yaoguang when they arrived at the Pure Land, so that Fan Chun could not bear the consequences!
"real?"
"You don't want this big gift package?"
Fan Chun was not angry at all, only a look of regret on his face.
"Fan's Trading Company's latest shower gel, shampoo, perfume, facial mask, body lotion..."
"These are new products with a price but no market. They are special tribute products for the royal family, clan, and distinguished families."
"But since you don't care about it, I will take it back."
