Chapter 825: What Crime Should Be Committed? !
More than ten days later, it was already the end of winter. The whole world was still white, but the temperature was still slightly warmer.
The people of Great Qin were all nesting in their houses, waiting for winter to pass.
But at this time, on the edge of the royal city of Goguryeo, there were countless civilians who were working hard. Everyone was working hard, and almost no one was cheating.
It's not because the Da Qin supervisors around them are too cruel. In fact, these Da Qin people usually don't beat them very much, and they rarely even scold them.
It's because according to the plan, as long as they finish the required work today, they can return to the warm dormitory and have hot porridge to keep them full.
This kind of treatment is not necessarily available to ordinary people who have their own land.
Xiao Liu was wearing mink fur and holding a whip in his hand. He stood at the top of the city and looked around boredly.
His life in Goguryeo was extremely relaxed, even a little boring.
"General, these civilians have almost finished their work, but it's still early. Do you want to arrange some more things for them to do?"
A lieutenant next to Xiaoliu came over and reported.
Xiao Liu glanced at the peasants below, then shook his head and said,
"No need. If you do it for a while longer, it won't make much difference. It will also break your own rules."
"We are here to give the people of Goguryeo a signal that as long as they listen to Da Qin's words, they will be fed and clothed."
This is the code of conduct given to him by His Highness the Crown Prince.
If you want to completely capture Goguryeo, you need this subtle approach.
When these Goguryeo people cry and shout that they want to go to Daqin and would rather die on the land of Daqin, the plan will be successful.
The current plan can only be said to be a small step in success, because many Goguryeo women are now proud to marry Daqin people.
There are indeed many Goguryeo women who directly cross the border and enter Daqin territory on foot.
Moreover, news came back that the sky in Daqin was bluer than that in Goguryeo, and the sun was warmer.
In short, everything is better than Goguryeo!
At this time, Xiao Liu warned me again,
"I'll stress it to my brothers again. There must be no forced buying or selling to humiliate the people of Goguryeo. I was really bored, so I went to find trouble with those nobles."
The purpose here is to continuously belittle the position of the upper class of Goguryeo in the hearts of ordinary people.
Hearing this, the deputy general on the side couldn't help but smile. He was about to take the order and leave when he suddenly thought of something and said,
"By the way, General, I already have information about what you asked me to investigate before. Thousands of dead soldiers have indeed gathered in the small county town a hundred miles away from the royal city."
"The person behind this is a minister in the court, but on the surface, this minister is biased towards us."
"Hey, I didn't expect these people to have such thoughts."
Xiao Liu didn't panic at all when he heard the news. He even pointed at a hawker at the bottom of the city and said,
"Someone, come and buy me some food. Remember to pay in full."
It was because I had been with His Highness the Crown Prince for a long time that I realized that the methods used by these people were really unsavory.
Not difficult at all.
Pretending to take refuge, secretly accumulating strength and preparing for a counterattack, none of it was leftover from His Royal Highness's tricks. He could see clearly that even His Majesty was almost tricked.
"Find an opportunity to lure these people out, and then kill them openly without leaving any clues to the other party."
"We need to clearly let these people know that they can stutter even if they are dogs, otherwise they won't even be able to save their lives."
Xiao Liu said calmly at this time.
The deputy general on the side nodded and was about to take the order to leave. At this moment, a messenger hurriedly arrived in front of them and reported,
"Letter from Xianyang."
Xiaoliu quickly took it and after reading the letter, his expression suddenly became strange.
"Let's go, take someone to follow me to the palace."
After saying that, he turned around and led the people all the way towards the palace.
The royal city of Goguryeo is not big, so it didn’t take long for Xiaoliu to arrive at the palace.
Naturally, there were guards at the entrance of the palace. When the guards saw the menacing little sixth-level man, they saluted very consciously and then got out of the way.
An attendant even whispered,
"The king is in the palace and has not gone out in the past few days."
Xiao Liu nodded, and then led the people straight into the palace.
Not long after, he arrived in front of the King of Goguryeo.
"Meet the general."
The King of Goguryeo bowed in a very polite manner,
"I don't know why the general came here."
Xiao Liu said unceremoniously at this time,
"King Goguryeo, you ordered thieves to set fire to Xianyang. What crime should you be punished for?"
Hearing this, the King of Goguryeo looked extremely confused. He didn't understand what the other person was talking about.
"General, what are you talking about?"
Xiao Liu didn't say much to him and directly handed over the letter in his hand.
After the King of Goguryeo finished reading, he sat down on the ground with a face full of disbelief. After finally coming back to his senses, he cried loudly,
"General Mingjian! I am loyal to the Qin Dynasty. Absolutely not. It's just this matter. I dare to swear to God!"
The King of Goguryeo was completely blind now. He never expected that while he was sitting at home, pots would come from the sky.
If he really had the guts to do this, he wouldn't be left out to this extent now.
Seeing this scene, Xiao Liu actually didn't believe that the other party could do this.
But since His Highness the Crown Prince has given the order, the other party will do it even if they don't do it.
It just so happened that His Highness the Crown Prince also said that he would prepare supplies for the Huns, and now he had an excuse.
So he said extremely arrogantly,
"No excuses. The King of Goguryeo offended the Qin Dynasty and should be severely punished. However, His Highness the Crown Prince is benevolent and will only fine you some money."
"As soon as you're ready."
After saying that, he turned around and left.
The King of Goguryeo sat down on the ground slumped, he was already unable to resist.
When the palace guards and attendants on the side saw this scene, they all looked envious towards Xiao Liu and the others.
A small general in Da Qin could bully a royal family. How majestic and domineering this was.
Even if they cannot become Da Qin people in this life, they still have to find opportunities for their next generation to become Da Qin people.
The look in their eyes towards their king became a little strange.
If there is a chance that they can expose some of the other party's crimes, will they be appreciated by the Qin army?
Xiaoliu didn't know that he had countless potential spies. After leaving the palace, he quickly ordered to start planning and preparing the reserve of the army.
It can be seen that His Highness the Crown Prince is determined to completely pacify the Huns, and the time will be within the next two years.
Then we must be prepared to win some military honors in this war.
After all, this is very likely to be Da Qin's last battle.
At this time, there was another group of messengers crossing the Great Wall and heading towards the Huren Royal Court.
