Chapter 509 Blackmailing Harvest
The four surviving Xianbei marshals from the six Xianbei tribes marched knee-to-shoulder with dozens of tribal leaders, and came to see Shang Ji tremblingly, not daring to lift their heads!
The battle ended quickly, and the Xianbei army completely lost the will and ability to resist, and surrendered to the Shangji army on a large scale. Of the 600,000 Xianbei who fought with Cheng Lugui, about 160,000 died in battle and 300,000 were captured. The total number of Xianbei troops who managed to escape by chance did not exceed 150,000!
At the same time, the Shang Ji army also captured seven young commanders from Xianbei in the east, and there were countless leaders and nobles!
The pursuers who had just finished torturing themselves were completely tormented by the Shang Ji army in an instant, and only they themselves knew what it was like for the six Xianbei who escaped from death.
As for why the people who came to the rescue were not the silver dragon iron cavalry and the greedy wolf cavalry in the intelligence, but the black armor Xuanqi of Shang Ji Shang Ji; why Shang Ji launched an attack from the rear; why the attack time was just after the six Xianbei main forces were wiped out ; Even if a smart person thinks about these questions, he would never dare to ask them!
On the contrary, today's six Xianbeis are extremely obedient, and the attitudes of the young commanders and nobles of each department are comparable to the humblest slaves, for fear of angering the merchants and leading to the death of their families!
Looking at the six Xianbei nobles who were walking on their knees, trembling and not daring to show their air, Shang Ji showed a smug smile on his lips.
After a while, with a sad expression, Shang Ji walked a few steps quickly and reached out to help Shi Ze who was in the front.
"I'm late! I didn't expect Ke Bineng to be so frenzied and attack Guiyi's tribe. In the future, I will be married and lead Hu Ben, and kill Ke Bineng to avenge the lords!"
I don't know whether he was moved by Shang Ji or frightened by Shang Ji. Shi Ze, who was missing half of his arm, had a bitter expression on his face, and immediately burst into tears: "Mr. Shi! Mr. Shi! We are so miserable!"
"I will know, I will know! Don't worry, when you go to Pingzhou, I will provide all the food, clothing, housing and transportation. I promise that the Xianbei brothers will not be wronged!" Shang Ji repeatedly comforted and promised, but after discarding the six Xianbei The large number of cattle, sheep and horses captured by Cheng Lugui did not give any explanation.
"Thank you for your kindness, thank you for your kindness!" Regardless of whether it was true or not, the dozens of Xianbei nobles in front of them were all grateful to Shang Ji. Shi Ze cut his cheek on the spot and swore his lifelong allegiance to Shang Ji.
The others followed suit and pledged their allegiance one after another. After a while, Shang Ji had dozens of Xianbei followers.
Quietly opened the system panel and took a look, Shang Ji found that the loyalty of this wave of people varies greatly, some people's loyalty is only 30 to 40, it is obvious that they have different opinions.
However, what surprised Shang Ji was that there was another group of people whose loyalty hovered around 70 points, and Shi Ze in front of Shang Ji had a loyalty rate as high as 89 points!
It is true that Yi Di is afraid of power but not Huai De. If you conquer him, you will naturally be loyal!
Secretly remembering a few Xianbei nobles with high loyalty, Shang Ji took out a pill of returning to heaven and put it in Shi Ze's hand: "I have heard about the loyalty and bravery of Shi Ze, and here is a pill that can protect Shi Ze's life." Xiaoshuai has regained his glory, please accept it!"
Shi Ze took the elixir excitedly, opened it tremblingly with his healthy hand, and swallowed it in one gulp at Shang Ji's signal. Soon, new granulation sprouted from the broken arm, and the limb was repaired at a speed visible to the naked eye.
"At the end, I would like to thank my lord, Hong En, and wish to serve my lord forever and ever, in order to repay my lord's favor!" Shi Ze fell to his knees with a plop, and shouted.
"Ding, congratulations player Shangji, your general Shi Ze's loyalty to you has increased by five points, and now his loyalty is 94 points!"
"Ding, congratulations player Shangji, the loyalty of the 21 generals under your command, including Na Liu, Qin Moore, and Bi Luxu, has increased to varying degrees, please check for yourself!"
Looking at the Xianbei nobles kneeling together, Shang Ji could only secretly feel that the Xianbei people are really complicated, they are simply patients with collective Stockholm syndrome.
"Okay, everyone has a bloody battle, and the casualties are not small. Go down first to gather the tribe and appease the herdsmen!"
"I'll take my leave!"
After sending away the handsome heads of the six Xianbei tribes, Shang Ji received another batch of Xianbei nobles!
The performance of this group of Xianbei people is even worse than that of the six Xianbei,
Many were not even able to walk on their own and were clearly devastated.
"My lord, please spare me! Cheng Lugui forced us to do it, how could we have the guts to fight against the Celestial Empire!"
"Forgive me!"
…………………………………
As soon as they saw Shang Ji, everyone cried, and the barracks was filled with noisy voices.
"Shut up!" Shang Ji was disturbed by the crying, and couldn't help but burst out shouting.
The Xianbei nobles who were crying for heaven and earth were suddenly silent, and looked at Shang Ji in horror, as if Shang Ji would turn into a cannibal demon and swallow them all in the next moment!
"You are all my captives now. Now you have two roads, one is to follow me to Pingzhou as a coolie to build roads, and the other is to let your tribe send people to redeem you!"
Shang Ji didn't bother to pretend to be the nobles of the Eastern Xianbei who were captured in front of him, and he went straight to the point and spoke bluntly.
"We are willing to pay to redeem our lives, willing to pay to redeem our lives!" Upon hearing that there was still a chance to pay to redeem their bodies, many Xianbei immediately became excited and shouted repeatedly.
No one wants to go to Pingzhou to be a coolie. These people are Xianbei nobles. They are popular and drink spicy food in Xianbei.
"Very good!" Seeing the reaction of the Xianbei nobles, Shang Ji nodded in satisfaction.
For these scumbags, Shang Ji really looked down on them. Even the previous six Xianbei merchants were not very willing to accept their allegiance.
What really makes Shang Ji salivate is the population of nearly 10 million Xianbei in the six tribes!
As for the combat effectiveness of the six Xianbei armies, to put it bluntly, when Shang Ji rectified military affairs, the quality of the partially abolished troops was higher than theirs!
Accepting the surrender of the six Xianbei nobles is mainly because they need to rely on them to temporarily control the Xianbei herdsmen. However, these scumbags in Xianbei in the east did not have this treatment, and Shang Ji simply extorted some money and goods directly.
Anyway, in the eyes of Shang Ji, the Eastern Xianbei after this battle has basically become the back garden of the Shang Ji army. They can come and go as they want, and the Eastern Xianbei has no ability or courage to stop it!
Shang Ji is greedy for the remaining population of Xianbei in the east, but Pingzhou's digestion capacity is limited, and it will take two to three months to absorb and digest the six Xianbei. Shang Ji simply stored them in the grassland temporarily, and occasionally led the army to fight the autumn wind when he became interested, which can be regarded as training.
"From now on, every group of ten people will form a team with the people they are most familiar with, and the grouping will be completed within a quarter of an hour. Those who have not yet been assigned after the time limit will be executed immediately!"
Although the Xianbei nobles didn't understand the meaning of Shang Ji's actions, they acted extremely efficiently under the threat of the butcher's knife, and completed the team formation as required in less than half the time!
"Very good, from now on, any form of communication between each team and team members is strictly prohibited, and those who violate the order will be executed!"
After finishing speaking, Shang Ji clapped his hands again, and immediately a black armor Xuanqi sent a large amount of pens, inks, papers and inkstones.
"From now on, you write down the ransom you think you should pay according to your status, wealth and power, and then evaluate the ransom that your team members should pay." After finishing speaking, Shang Ji showed a devilish smile: "Seriously Evaluate! If I find out that the amount of ransom you consider is too different from the average amount of ransom evaluated by your teammates, I will kill you!"
After a pause, Shang Ji added: "Of course, if the amount of ransom you determine by yourself greatly exceeds the evaluation of your teammates, and you really have the ability to pay, then I am very supportive, but if you find out who is playing me in the end , I will guarantee that he will die a miserable death!"
"Don't try to help your teammates lower the evaluation value, kill the one with the lowest total evaluation value in the team on the spot! If you can risk your life to help your teammates save money, then I can help you! Of course, to prevent you from messing around Climbing, the one whose total evaluation value is seriously higher than the average level is also killed on the spot!"
Every time Shang Ji said a word, the faces of the Xianbei prisoners turned pale. In the end, dozens of Xianbei nobles' faces were as cold as frost, and they stared at Shang Ji with wide-eyed horror. Their eyes were full of unconcealable resentment.
Shang Ji's move is too ruthless, everyone can't communicate with each other. For the sake of my own life, I must write as high as possible, but not too high, otherwise there is a risk of being killed.
And the safest way is to write your own ransom price higher, so it must be foolproof! But this is tantamount to using a knife to gouge out the flesh on yourself!
A group of black-armored Xuanqi with guns stood next to the group of Xianbei nobles. If there was any movement, they immediately warned with spears, and pierced the heart directly for the second time.
After killing seven or eight Xianbei nobles in a row, the group finally became honest.
Although the bitterness on his face was about to condense into juice, he still made an honest assessment there.
It's just that every time I write a word, it seems that I have cut two catties of meat, which makes me laugh!
Shang Ji had other things to deal with, so he didn't have time to dawdle here, so he simply let Gongsun Du watch here, while he turned and left.
"How about Ziyi? Have the results been counted?" Shang Ji walked into another tent, and Tai Shici was counting the results.
"My lord, what a bumper harvest!" Tai Shici introduced excitedly with a look of joy on his face, "We have captured about 3 million horses in total in this battle, including nearly 1.8 million war horses of all levels and 8 million cattle. More than 30 million sheep, 800,000 sets of intact weapons and armor (garbage goods), about 12 million gold, and a large number of architectural drawings, animal fur, cheese and food. The total value of property exceeds 100 million gold , Please send someone to make a detailed assessment after returning to Pingzhou for the exact amount!"
Eighty percent of these properties belonged to Liubu Xianbei, but Shang Ji didn't plan to return them, and they didn't have the guts to ask Shang Ji for it. As a matter of course, these have become the spoils of war for merchants.
In fact, the total assets of the six Xianbei are definitely more than that. They were hunted all the way, and they had been forced to abandon part of their belongings before, and there were still a large number of portable gold and silver jewelry and other valuables in their tribe. After all, this is the perennial accumulation of nearly tens of millions of Xianbei, it is impossible to have only this little.
Of course, Shang Ji would not squeeze them all out.
Because of the development of the situation, the attachment conditions mentioned by Shang Ji before are no longer appropriate. Shang Ji doesn't plan to play any more intermediate links. They were directly pulled down in batches to the Yanhuang Temple and naturalized, and then assigned to various places in Pingzhou to fill the population.
Anyway, with the courage of the two of them, they dare not say no to Shang Ji!
These people will become the cornerstone of Pingzhou's development just like ordinary mainland immigrants. Retaining some personal belongings is more conducive to quickly integrating into the general environment and settling down faster.
"Ziyi, send people to the six Xianbei to gather people to help move these spoils. Send a message to Biejia to prepare him for handling a large amount of spoils. Give Zilong and Huchen an order to speed up the march and come quickly Accept us!"
One hundred thousand black-armored mysterious knights have no combat power, but it is necessary to guard against the rebellion of the captured Xianbei, and also to guard against the Eastern Xianbei killing a carbine. In the previous battle, the main forces of the six Xianbei tribes were all wiped out, and for the safety of the population, the merchants had to divide their troops to protect them. In the end, there were still a lot of spoils to take care of.
These cannot be solved simply by tyrannical combat power. The Black Armored Xuanqi has been exhausted and urgently needs a trustworthy army to share the work!
