Quickly wear "I am the empress"

The next day, all the soldiers in the Guizhou and border areas of Dai County had a rare and hearty breakfast.

All the dead cattle and sheep snatched by the Xiongnu yesterday were used by Zhiyu to stew soup. Because of the large quantity, not only the soldiers were full, but the surrounding Guizhou leaders were also given a bowl of broth with meat.

"My lady, there were about 60,000 Huns captured yesterday, of which about 10,000 were children, about 20,000 were women, and the rest were young adults."

Liang Yu presented the document and respectfully reported.

Zhiyu nodded when he heard this, waved his hand and arranged: "Wear shackles on these young adults and let them build the Great Wall."

"As for women... please ask someone to teach them farming and weaving. Now our border officers are short of food and clothing. It would be good if they could knit some clothes."

"As for the children, the older ones will be sent to herd the palace, while the younger ones will stay with their mothers. We will arrange affairs when they grow up."

Hearing Zhiyu's words, Wang Li frowned in disapproval. If the concubine is like this, will she be too kind to those Huns?

Doing this doesn't seem like punishing the captives, but rather like... recruiting peace.

With this thought in his mind, Wang Li also asked, "My dear daughter, these Huns have done all kinds of evil, why should we be so kind to them? In my opinion, I have to take them all and sink them into the river, so that I, the Qin Dynasty, can be comforted that they died in vain." The officers and soldiers of Guizhou."

Zhiyu sighed, and seeing the resentment on Wang Li's face, explained: "General Wang, although the Huns are hateful, it is impossible to kill them all."

"I know that as a general on the border, you want to kill all the Huns after seeing the desolate border."

"But there are other uses for keeping these Xiongnu people. If we kill them now, it will be our Qin leader who will suffer."

Hearing this, Wang Li looked at Xiang Zhiyu with some doubts. Shouldn't killing the Xiongnu be an act of revenge for the leader of Qin? How could it in turn cause hardship to the head of Guizhou Province in the Qin Dynasty?

"I'm going to be stupid. Please let me know."

"General Wang, our country, the Qin Dynasty, is currently fighting everywhere. The military service and corvee are serious. There are very few sons and daughters in the country who stay at home and farm."

"If things go on like this, it will do all the harm to our country, the Qin Dynasty, and not even a single benefit."

"Now that the Central Plains have not yet been unified, our officers and soldiers in the Qin Dynasty cannot take care of the Huns, so we, the Qin Dynasty, have to build this Great Wall."

"With these 30,000 Huns participating in the construction of the Great Wall, it means that our Qin Dynasty has 30,000 sons who can stay at home and farm with peace of mind."

"General Wang thinks, based on this calculation, do these Huns deserve to be killed?"

After hearing Zhiyu's words, Wang Li thought silently for a moment, lowered his head in shame and said, "Please forgive me, Madam. Wang Li was blinded by hatred and didn't think so much."

Zhiyu waved his hand, "General Wang is concerned about the border, so he hates the new Xiongnu so much, so why is he guilty?"

Seeing that Zhiyu did not blame him, Wang Li raised his hands to Zhiyu and said, "My dearest lady, I will personally send these Huns to build the Great Wall."

Zhiyu nodded, "Let the guards keep a close watch on you. If anyone escapes, he will be killed without mercy."

Hearing Zhiyu's cold voice, Wang Li nodded solemnly, "Yes, concubine."

Since the last sneak attack on the Luotang tribe, several Xiongnu tribes closer to Dai County have been quieter recently, and the border has been peaceful for a rare period of time.

After Zhiyu plundered Luotang, he went around to restore the people's livelihood in Dai County.

The Luoting tribe was almost wiped out. Other tribes are now wary of Great Qin. It is not as easy as before to make a sneak attack.

Zhiyu couldn't take the initiative to attack before he figured out the situation of several other tribes, so both sides were now in a wait-and-see mode.

"My lady, Touman is about to die. Do you want to hire a military doctor for him?"

On this day, when Zhiyu went out to deal with things and came back, he happened to meet Wang Li who was in a hurry. After Wang Li saw it, he felt relieved and hurriedly asked Zhiyu about his idea.

"I will go and see for myself."

Hearing this, Zhiyu threw the long sword in her hand to Liang Yu behind her, and took Wang out of the cell.

The cell in Dai County was noisy, with all kinds of shouts and smells intertwined, making those who came in unable to help but cover their noses.

Seeing this, Wang Li hurriedly suggested: "My lady, I will go and bring Touman out."

Zhiyu waved his hand when he heard this, endured the discomfort and walked in.

Because of Touman's special status, he occupied a cell alone. At this time, he was lying on the straw mat dying, and he had long lost his former glory.

Seeing this, Zhiyu's face showed no unnecessary expression. After opening the door of the prison, he walked step by step towards Touman on the ground.

Hearing slight noises coming from the surroundings, Touman opened his eyes with difficulty. After seeing clearly that the person who came was Zhiyu, he endured the pain of the wound and made a disdainful expression.

"Don't expect to get any news from me, I won't say anything."

Hearing this, Zhiyu raised his eyebrows slightly and said calmly: "What? Leader Touman is so sure that I am here to inquire about information?"

Hearing this, Touman smiled sarcastically, "You Central Plains people are not good people. You tortured me but didn't let me die. Doesn't that mean I'm still of some use?"

"Now that my tribe has been wiped out by you, the only thing in my body that is of any use is the news in my head."

Wen Yanyu did not deny it, but praised it seriously, "You are very smart."

"Ah."

Hearing Zhiyu's words, Touman sneered, "Should I thank the Queen of Qin for her compliment?"

Zhiyu waved his hand, and at that moment Wang Li personally carried a chair in. Zhiyu sat in front of Touman and looked at him condescendingly.

"There's no need to thank you. We have a saying in the Central Plains that a person who knows the current affairs is a hero, but I don't know... whether Leader Touman is such a hero."

Touman tilted his head to one side with difficulty, "We prairie people have always kept our promises and will never betray others."

"The Queen of Qin should give up on this idea."

Zhiyu lowered his head and played with the dagger in his hand. He didn't have any emotions after hearing Touman's words. He just waved his hand and asked Wang Li to bring him.

After a while, a burly and dirty young man was escorted in by Wang Li. Although the young man was covered in filth, his eyes were frighteningly bright. As soon as he came in, he stared at Zhiyu.

Zhiyu glanced at the young man casually, then turned his attention to Touman, and said with a smile: "This is your best son, right? If you tell the news about other tribes today, I will spare this child a life." How is your life?"

Hearing this, Touman looked at the young man who was somewhat similar to him, with some unbearable eyes, but in the end he looked away, "I will kill the queen of Qin if she wants. I will not betray the tribes of the grassland. "

After hearing this, the young man's bright eyes dimmed for a moment. After a while, the young man looked at Xiang Zhiyu: "What do you want to know, let me tell you."
