Chapter 535 Mining And Building A City
Chapter 535 Mining And Building A City
"Your Highness is wise!"
Li Hong heard Lu Bu's decision from a distance, shouted loudly, and then led all the elders to bow down!
"There are many archipelagos here, and there are also many survivors of our Ming Dynasty. If we can get His Royal Highness' protection, we will definitely raise a banner for the archipelago and become a strong support for His Royal Highness to restore Ming Dynasty!"
Li Hong shouted Qiansui, but said loudly at the same time.
"I, Li Hong, the patriarch of the Li Family Village led the crowd to unconditionally support His Highness's move, and will not hesitate to do so!"
Seeing Li Hong's excited look, Lu Bu was a little surprised, but it was Li Ru who stepped aside from Li Hong and others' kneeling, and then said in a low voice: "Your Highness, this is the patriarch. They are afraid that some of the captives will not Long-eyed, rushing towards His Highness, I came here to arouse the emotions of the adherents, and maybe I can find a few neighbors who I know, so that they can surrender safely!"
Hearing Li Ru's words, Lu couldn't help but be taken aback, and looked at Li Hong and the others gratefully.
Not all survivors of the Ming Dynasty can have this kind of friendship. Many of them went to sea not to avoid disasters. They may be for pure freedom, or they may be to avoid due military service. The things in it are beyond words .
Sure enough, after they knelt down and kowtowed nine times, they stood up, and some of the captives yelled out.
"Uncle Li!"
"Grandpa Li!"
Those who called out these two names, one was a middle-aged strong man, and the other was a young man. They seemed to be very familiar with Li Hong. In front of Hong.
Li Hong saw these two people, not only did not help them excitedly, but his face became very pale.
"Why are you here, Master Lin?"
It was good that he didn't mention the owner Lin, but as soon as he mentioned this name, the two people in front of him immediately burst into tears.
"My father was killed by pirates, and all thirty-six members of his family were killed, leaving only the two of us!"
"Our father and son were captured alive by them because we went out to fish. We wanted to lead them away from the direction of Linjiazhuang, but who knew that they seemed to be prepared. The people in the village rose up to resist and angered the leader. No one is spared!"
The two cried heart-rendingly, which aroused the sadness in the hearts of the prisoners, and they burst into tears.
For a while, the scene turned out to be somewhat unstoppable!
A trace of gloom flashed across Lu Bu's face, but he didn't stop them from crying, but waited patiently.
It took a full quarter of an hour before the mood in the field began to stabilize. Lu Bu cleared his throat.
"I think everyone's situation is different from Lin's father and son. Those damn pirates are running amok here, it's really hateful!"
"If you belong to my city, you can strangle with me. Those pirates, if you want to take revenge yourself, it is nothing more than hitting a stone with a pebble. It is impossible!"
"Today the Ming Dynasty is in decline, and all the names on you are no longer counted. From now on, anyone who enters our city will be a good citizen. Those who help me strangle pirates and counterattack the Central Plains will have the opportunity to become ten thousand lords!"
This is the right time to strike while the iron is hot. The grief and indignation in the hearts of the people, the destruction of their homes, and the idea that the homeland is hard to leave will inevitably emerge automatically!
If they can return to the Central Plains safely, make new achievements, and use the name of the Prince of Ming Dynasty to rectify their names, wouldn't they be rich and honored soon?
Immediately, some people's hearts became active.
The Lin family father and son received Li Hong's guidance, turned around and knelt down decisively towards Lu Bu, and said loudly: "~ Lin Lang and Lin Hu are willing to submit to Your Highness's command, let them be urged, even if they die, there will be no regrets!"
These two people were relatively influential among the captives. Seeing that both of them bowed down to Lu Bu, everyone reacted immediately.
This opportunity to swear allegiance and express oneself cannot be wasted. Immediately, a large group of smart people bowed down to this side.
"We are all willing to submit to His Royal Highness's command, and do our best for Daming!"
This kind of talk is very cheap for them, Lu doesn't need them, and it's impossible to really let them go to death, so when he said it, he said it.
Lu Bu stretched out his hands to suppress their voices, and nodded in satisfaction.
With Lu Bu's wisdom, how could he not be able to see the thoughts in these guys' hearts, but he doesn't mind, in time, he will be the master of Ming Dynasty, he will be the master of the world, and it is impossible to do everything by himself, this kind of comfort It is more reliable to entrust Li Ru with the matters of the people's hearts!
At this time, everyone had already made up their minds, but after Lu Bu discussed the decision, he rested here.
In three to five days, the three pirate ships have been repaired, and the captives have been cleaned up, and they look like civilians with new outfits!
After sorting out, among these common people, a hundred or so strong and strong were selected!
These elites were immediately arranged among those elites in Lijiazhuang, and they were trained at the same time!.
