Datang: My apprentice is Princess Changle

Chapter 213
Chapter 213 The Water Bandits
The water bandits fought by themselves, and it took less than an hour to completely finish the fight.

Wang Laoqi and others were all killed one after another.

Although they also killed many people, they were outnumbered.

In the face of survival, those little minions who were usually looked down upon by them joined together, like ants eating elephants, and really consumed them to death.

There are more than 5000 people, and now there are a little more than 4000 left.

These 4000 people fought over the corpses of dozens of village owners.

It was not until another cannon rang that the chaotic battlefield finally stopped.

Qin Yang didn't say a word, it was still Qiao Liang who shouted with a loudspeaker.

The remaining 4000 people can all be saved from death.

But they need to be cataloged one by one and become workers in the labor camp established in Youzhou.

Work in it for at least five years before you are eligible to leave.

But Qiao Liang also talked about the treatment of the workers in the labor reform factory. They can eat three meals a day and have new clothes all year round.

And in addition to food and clothing, you can also live in a house that does not leak from wind and rain.

During this period of at least five years, technical guidance will be provided to each reform-through-labour worker to ensure that they have a technology that can support their families within five years.

This treatment, this condition, made the four thousand people who were listening on the opposite side dumbfounded.

They looked at each other, unable to believe this!

After all, it sounds strange to them!
When they were not water bandits, they were children of ordinary families.

When I was young, I heard my parents talk about apprenticeships. Being able to work as an apprentice and learn crafts from a master is a very lucky person!

Because in this world, anyone who can have a solid craft can survive!
Still alive and well!

But because of this, craftsmen will not easily teach the technology.

In many cases, children from poor families are sent out when they are about ten years old to serve as apprentices.

At least work for a few years, and be used as a grandson by others, so that you can slowly get in touch with technology.

From being sent there to being an apprentice, it took ten years, it was basically impossible!
Just like this, most people, in the past few years, basically couldn't sleep well and couldn't eat enough.

You can listen to the conditions given by the opposite government!
Five years to go to the factory to work!
Take care of food and housing, and take care of clothes!
And during these five years, they can also teach them the skills to support their families!
How is this arranging captives!

How is this setting up water bandits!

Under such conditions, I am afraid that there are notices posted, and some children from poor families are willing to come!

After Qiao Liang finished speaking, he found that there was no movement on the other side.

It was noisy just now, but now it is completely silent.

What, these people are not happy?
Qiao Liang was immediately unhappy. On this condition, what else could he not be happy about?
He shouted into the loudspeaker again: "If you don't want to, forget it!"

"No! We do!"

"We do!"

"I am willing!"

As soon as he yelled out, the other side immediately exploded!

It's like the oil that suddenly exploded in the pan, the people on the island can't wait to jump up and shout!

I'm afraid people here misunderstood!

Listening to the movement over there, Qin Yang smiled slightly.

Zhang Xu on the side was a little confused. He asked his colleagues in a low voice: "What do you think King Youzhou thinks? Those water bandits have more than 4000 people, and they have [-] mouths. They really give them like this. Good conditions? Work in a factory, take care of food and housing, and train them to be craftsmen? Are you taking prisoners, or are you supporting your ancestors?"

He can't figure it out!

The colleague who was asked by him also couldn't figure it out, so he replied with some doubts: "Perhaps, it's because of the lack of people in Youzhou?"

"Is the shortage of people like this?" Zhang Xu is not from Youzhou, let alone an official in Youzhou, so he cannot understand this matter.

But it doesn't matter much to them.

The purpose of their following is to exterminate these water bandits.

Now that the bandit capital is finished, the remaining people are willing to surrender to King Youzhou.

This matter seems to be a successful conclusion?

Coming here in a daze, and going back in a daze, the navy generals, officers and soldiers of the three counties were all deeply impressed by the encirclement and suppression of Penglai Lake.

After all, they saw with their own eyes the cannon that the Youzhou navy used on board!
Good guy!
That thing is really fierce!

They were stunned but couldn't see the principle of that thing and how it sent out the thunder!

How did you use thunder to directly blast all the obstacles along the way!
Especially the people who were next to King Youzhou and Qiao Liang saw the "clairvoyance" in King Youzhou's hand, and the magic weapon in Qiao Liang's hand that could amplify the sound!
These two things are small enough!
Whether they can use the clairvoyance used by King Youzhou or not, they don't know.

But Qiao Liang, an ordinary person, used things that they could obviously use!
After all, they didn't think they were any worse than Qiao Liang.

They were all born by the same mother, they were all ordinary military officers, and they didn't have any reincarnation of gods, they were all ordinary people!

Since Qiao Liang can use it, so can they!
But that's where the problem lies. They can do it, but they can't get the magic weapon!

Or maybe the reason why Qiao Liang can use that magical weapon is because King Youzhou allowed it?

When I think of the magic of King Youzhou, people who didn't believe it before became more convinced after this round of encirclement and suppression of water bandits.

"Hey! Forget it, don't think about it!"

Zhang Xu and the others sighed in their hearts, although they really wanted to use those two instruments.

I also know that I can't come here!

They don't care about losing face, but if they offend King Youzhou because of this, the loss outweighs the gain.

So even though their eyes were almost glued to the "magic weapon" in Qiao Liang's hand, they still reluctantly bid farewell to the Youzhou Navy.

"I still don't know how to report this matter to my lord. It is said that the thunder made those water bandits surrender directly. Can my lord believe this?" Zhang Xu thought for a while and sighed again.

On the other side, Qin Yang, who temporarily transferred the merchant ship and watched the water bandits being taken away, did not leave immediately.

There's one last thing he needs to do.

"Don't be afraid."

Facing the timid women in front of him, Qin Yang couldn't help but sigh.

What a crime, those water bandit chiefs.

There are hundreds of these women.

In addition to the dozens of women rescued here in Penglai Lake, there are also people rescued from other places by other water bandits who surrendered.

Most of these women are already extremely afraid of men, even if Qin Yang smiled gently, they are still afraid.

At the critical moment, Qin Yang could only summon Houhou.

Although he didn't bring Houhou with him on this trip, but Houhou is the guard given to him by the system and can be summoned to his side at any time.

"Owner."

With a charming voice, a woman in white appeared beside Qin Yang.

As a result, her appearance made the hundreds of women on the opposite side even more frightened.

They originally thought that the young leader in front of them was a good person, but they looked at the woman who appeared next to this man.

How could a man like this, who had to take his concubine for pleasure during a war, be as good as he acted!
