After hearing Li Xiao's question, Wanyan Yechen, who was kneeling on the ground with his hands tied back, closed his eyes and said nothing.

Seeing this, Li Xiao thought he couldn't understand Chinese language and was about to translate it. Unexpectedly, the surrendered deputy general of the Han army, Xu Erxian, rushed over at this time, kicked Wanyan Yechen, who was pretending to be dead, and shouted Wanyan Yechen to the ground with a fierce blow, cursing: "Wanyan Yechen, you bastard! Are you pretending not to understand Chinese language with Lord Li? Grandpa will kick you to death today!"

Xu Erxian looked indignant and acted as if to kick him again, but Li Xiao stopped him.

Xu Erxian turned his head, with a flattering and flattering smile on his face, and reported to Li Xiao: "Duke of Tang, this person is Wanyan Yechen, the chief general of Lushun City. This guy can understand Chinese language, but now he pretends to be dead in front of the Lord. It's really hateful!"

Li Xiao nodded slightly: "Oh, I understand, you can retreat first."

Xu Erxian retreated awkwardly, Li Xiao sneered and said to Wanyan Yechen: "Okay, don't pretend to be a loyal minister of the Qing Dynasty in front of me. If you really want to die, why didn't you fight with our army to the end? How could you escape first and then be captured? Wouldn't you be ashamed?"

After hearing Li Xiao’s heart-killing words, Wanyan Yechen’s face turned red. He slowly opened his eyes, but there was a wry smile on his lips: “Oh, Wanyan is incompetent, defeated and lost the city. The words of Duke Tang are really incomparable. Let’s just say nothing. Now that I have fallen into the hands of your Tang army, I want to kill and cut them, but I have to deal with it.”

Liu Guoneng, who was beside him, snorted coldly and drew his sword in his hand: "A dog-going Tartar, since you want to die so much, I will fulfill your wish!"

Liu Guoneng made a move and wanted to cut him down, but Li Xiao stopped him.

Li Xiao looked at Wanyan Yechen with expressionless face, and tried his best to resist the urge to cut off this person and cut off his dog's head in one fell swoop.

If it was just to avenge the people of Jinzhou that day, of course, it would be the happiest to kill Wanyan Yechen and all the surrendered Qing troops together. But, in Li Xiao's heart, there was a voice that kept reminding him that resuming Wanyan Yechen and these Qing troops would be more helpful to his future development.

After all, these Manzhou soldiers and horses guarding the city were all elite in a hundred battles, and in a certain way, it was an extremely valuable asset. If these troops were to be conquered and surrendered to the Qing army in Zhenbiancheng, they would first be intimidated, then labor reform, and finally complete the Chineseization and then absorb it as used. This would be the best choice.

If these tough guys can finally serve their loyalty, go to the vast Southeast Asia area, massacre the local lowly indigenous people who are stubborn because of their belief in a certain religion, and expand their territory, and accept all the islands in the Philippines and Indonesia, as well as the far-reaching Australia under their rule.

In addition, if these Manzhou troops could be used and these guys who could fight for themselves could fight for themselves, then this would be a major blow to the leader of the Qing Dynasty Huang Taiji. If he saw that these elite Manzhou soldiers who had been cultivated for many years of bloody battles eventually became part of the Tang army, and fighting against the Qing court in turn would definitely make Huang Taiji heartbroken. And for the entire Qing Dynasty, it would be an extremely heavy blow.

Li Xiaodaxin said that this approach should be a better way to revenge than simply killing people to vent their anger.

Li Xiao stared straight at Wanyan Yechen kneeling on the ground, and was speechless for a long time. Finally, he said lightly: "Wanyan Yechen, I will not talk nonsense to you. If you are willing to surrender to our army, I will give you a chance to survive. Otherwise, I will not keep any of the soldiers in the entire Lushun City and kill them all! Think carefully."

Wanyan Yechen raised his head, and his brown and yellow pupils were full of suspicion and a look of doubt.

When Wanyan Yechen heard that Li Xiao had the intention of recruiting himself, he felt a little moved.

Wanyan Yechen thought that Li Xiao would be like other Ming troops. After finally capturing the Manzhou army, he immediately killed his head and asked the court for credit. However, he was surprised that Li Xiao's intention was to accept all the more than 2,200 Manzhou army soldiers, which really surprised him.

Wanyan Yechen sighed in his heart, but he didn't expect that Li Xiao's ambition was far more than that of the Emperor of Ming Dynasty.

So, do you really want to surrender to him? Wanyan Yechen thought carefully in his heart.

Now that I am defeated and lost the city, even if I really flee back to Shengjing, I am afraid that it will be a death sentence. From this point of view, since then, I have completely defected to the Tang army and worked hard for the Tang army, which has become the only way out and the only choice.

Moreover, Li Xiao has such ambitions, there will definitely be many battles in the future. If he can serve him loyally, he will not have any chance of promotion.

Hum, damn, no matter who he serves, isn’t it all for promotion and wealth, and to win a wife and son? Since the road to returning to the Qing court has been cut off, then serving the Tang army and striving for a future in the Tang army is also the best way out for him.

Thinking of this, Wanyan Yechen bit his teeth and said loudly: "Since the Duke of Tang is so arrogant, if he is not tactful, wouldn't he seek death? I, Wanyan Yechen, hope to serve the Lord and the Tang army from now on!"

Li Xiao smiled and said, "Very good, Wanyan Yechen, you can serve my Tang army in time. I am really pleased. It is true that those who know the times are heroes. With your martial arts and generals, you will definitely be in our army in the future, and you will find a better future, and get promoted and make money. Let's loosen your ties."

When the army next to him was loosening Wanyan Yechen, Liu Guoneng, deputy general of Xingzhong Town, also sneered and said, "Wanyan Yechen, you know that the Qing generals, such as Chata, Ebilun, Kalamu, Samushka, etc., have been loyal since they became Lord Li, and are now important generals in our Tang army. As long as you work hard, your future official positions may not be inferior to them."

Liu Guoneng's words caused a slight uproar in Wanyan Yechen's heart.

He asked pale, "Didn't Chata, Ebilun, Samushka and others have all died in battle long ago? Why are they all playing for the Tang army?"

Liu Guoneng laughed and said, "You idiot, then the Qing chief Huang Taiji, was deceived by you so much in order to calm people's hearts. You will be in our army in the future and have the opportunity to see them again, which is not a difficult task."

Wanyan Yechen smiled bitterly and sighed a long time.

After the ropes were all untied, he knelt down in front of Li Xiao and shouted: "Sister Wanyan Yechen, I have met Duke Tang."

Li Xiao smiled and helped him up, and then he asked Wanyan Yechen and other Qing troops to take them down first.

At this time, all kinds of situations in the city had been counted by the Supervisory and Supervision Department.

According to the inventory of the treasury in the city, a total of more than 800 taels of gold, more than 44,000 taels of silver, more than 30,000 stones of food, and a large number of other types of armor, weapons and weapons were seized.

According to statistics, there were about 8,000 people in the city of Lushun, and most of the people moved from villages and towns in Jinzhou and nearby prefectures and counties after the Qing army massacred the city that day.

"I passed this general order to give the people of the whole city an hour, let them bring their luggage and get some luggage on their own. Then, together with the surrendered Han soldiers and Qing soldiers, the army was escorted by our general army, and all boarded the ship and returned to Dengzhou, Shandong. If anyone does not follow, he will be killed without any hesitation!"

"Get order!"

Li Xiao's order came out, and the whole city suddenly cried.

However, under the cold blade of the Tang army, no one dared to disobey Li Xiao's orders.

People from each household, holding their elderly and children, carrying their families and their families, carrying their luggage of all sizes, crying in a low voice, gathering in the square in the city from alleys.

When more than 8,000 people were taken to the square, the civil servants of the Tang Army's supervisory department stood on the stage and announced the Tang Army's policies and the places they were going to next.

After the civil servants of the governor finished speaking, the people immediately began to whisper.

"Taiwan? We want Taiwan? Where is Taiwan?"

"Uncle Chen, have you not heard it clearly? The civil servant said that it was in the territory south of the Ming Dynasty, opposite Fujian. He said that when we got there, each family would give ten acres of land, and those who were willing to go to the workshop to do business, and those who were willing to do business can do whatever they wanted. In this way, we people don't have to worry about the livelihoods of our people."

"Oh, I hope this is the case. Since Liaonan fell into the hands of the Qing barbarians, we have been waiting for the arrival of the king every day. Unexpectedly, the king finally came, but he wanted to force us to leave the land of our ancestors for generations. The old man really was reluctant to leave."

"Dad, what are you reluctant to leave? We have no land or job in this Jinzhou city. We live by working as a employed worker for those mankind. Not to mention the exhaustion of work every day, if you don't do a good job, you will be beaten and scolded by these mankind, or even chopped off your head. How can this be the life of people? It's better to go to Taiwan, have fields and work, and no one will beat us. Even if you leave this hometown of southern Liaoning, why can't you bear it? "

"That's right, isn't there any way to do this? In this Jinzhou, the two countries are fighting and fighting, so how can we live? It's better to live south in Taiwan, at least to be safe. Didn't you hear the civil servant say that rice can be grown there, and a mu of land can produce at least two stones of rice, and 40 stones of grain per year two seasons, but the life of this family is peaceful and worry-free."

The people chattered and talked, and everyone's face gradually changed from the initial panic to the look of expectation and yearning. The crying sounds that were clearly heard were no longer heard.

At dusk and dullness, all the people, the Han soldiers captured by the Tang army and the Qing army in Manzhou left the broken east gate, and meandered eastward to Lushunkou, boarding the ships south to return to Shandong.

After sending them to Dengzhou, these navy ships would immediately return north to meet the Tang army in Jinzhou.

However, after these people and the captured Qing army arrived in Shandong, what awaited them was different from their destiny.

The people would be sent to Jeju Island first and then transferred to Taiwan from Jeju, while the Qing army would be sent to labor reform first, and then decide how to use it next depending on the situation.

According to Li Xiao's request, the troops from the former Dongjiang Town, such as Xu Erxian's troops, were sentenced to labor reform for about half a year, and then dispersed and sent to various Tang army units, starting from auxiliary troops, and then slowly being promoted to combat soldiers.

All the Manchu soldiers were sent to Tielong City to dig iron ore. It is expected that the labor reform will take one year. During this period, the Chineseization and identity transformation will be completed, and then they will be dispersed and sent to the various types of Manchu troops in the Tang army.

As for Xu Erxian and Wanyan Yechen, they were all sent to Pingnan Camp in Taiwan, and served under Li Dingguo's account and received the guidance and management of the Tang army supervisor. After the two completed their status changes, they could start from the position of an inconspicuous ordinary officer and then slowly be promoted.

Late at night, the entire Lushun City finally became quiet.

However, in the Tang army command room temporarily served by the Lushun government, there were bright candles. Li Xiao and Liu Guoneng were nervously discussing the next further actions.

"Mr. Li, to be honest, I really didn't expect that our army would be able to attack Lushun City so smoothly. This battle was so fucking good." Liu Guoneng said to Li Xiao with a smile.

Li Xiao smiled and said, "The reason why our army can win so quickly in this battle is nothing more than two reasons."

"Oh, I'd like to hear about it later."

"Are these two reasons? First, our army's artillery is sharp and can directly collapse the Lushun city walls hundreds of steps away, which is the foundation for our army to win quickly. Second, Wanyan Yechen was unable to deal with it, and first, he could not abandon the city in time to escape, and second, he did not dare to fight our army to the end. As a result, he was worried about gains and losses, and he looked forward and finally quickly destroyed."

After hearing Li Xiao's words, Liu Guoneng agreed very much. He nodded and asked Li Xiao again: "Duke Tang, how should our army act next?"

Li Xiao pointed to the map on the wall: "Our army came here for a sneak attack, so we needed to take action quickly. In the next two days, our army divided into two parts, one attacked from Lushun north, conquered Muchangyi, Qingniwa, and Nanguandao all the way until we finally captured Jinxian County. The other part seized the time to sweep the fourth field of Jinzhou, gathered all the people and grain from all over the place, and let them ship to Dengzhou together with the people of other states and towns."

When Li Xiao said this, a ruthless look flashed across his face. He said coldly: "As for all counties, towns, villages and fields, they will be destroyed. If they can be burned, they will be burned. If they can be demolished, they will be demolished. Make sure to turn the entire Jinzhou into a piece of white land and ruins!"

Liu Guoneng responded loudly, and then asked Li Xiao: "Mr. Li, according to your opinion, how long will it take for the main force of the Qing army of the Qing court to come?"

Li Xiao pondered for a moment and said, "When Wanyan Yechen attacked, he had already sent cavalry to Shengjing and other prefectures and counties to seek reinforcements. In my opinion, the nearby prefectures and counties are insufficient, so he may not be able to come to Jinzhou. Our army is in Jinzhou, so there should be no substantial threat."

Li Xiao paused and said again: "It will take at least two days to report the news from Jinzhou to Chenyang. Then, the land of Chenyang will send people to western Liaoning to report to Huang Taiji about the military situation of our army's attack on Jinzhou. Huang Taiji, who received the news, can arrange for the Qing army to return emergency rescue. In this way, it will take at least eight or nine days, and the main force of the Qing army can reach Jinzhou. And these eight or nine days are enough to completely destroy our army."

After hearing Li Xiao’s analysis, Liu Guoneng admired him very much.
