"Okay... let me tell you a few more names... among these people with broken legs, here are the three worst people at the patrol point, and the three most suitable ones." Zhang Xing spoke directly without raising his head.

The man was finally startled, but after a moment he still lowered his voice and said a few names, and then he couldn't help but immediately asked: "Will you die if you don't surrender? Or will you die if you surrender if you have a bad reputation? If you surrender, you will die if you have a good reputation.

, can you live without surrender?"

"Don't ask, don't say unnecessary words. Everyone knows the truth... You choose the road yourself. All I can do is open the door half way." Zhang Xing sighed, and then looked directly at Xiao Zhou. "Go ahead.

!Throw it into the hall and put it aside."

Xiao Zhou and Jia Yue are both excellent executors.

After a while, another person came. As soon as he was thrown onto the couch, he collapsed and seemed ready to kowtow. Fortunately, Xiao Zhou grabbed him again.

Zhang Xing looked up and saw that it was a person without a beard, and immediately changed a piece of paper: "Name?"

"Sun, Sun Qiao."

"Where are you from?"

"Dongdu...no, Nanyang, probably Nanyang..."

"Where is the family record?"

"They are all dead a long time ago. I don't remember them anyway."

"What position?"

"Beiya's clerk..."

"What document?"

"Specialized in entering and exiting Cangcheng..."

"Are you willing to surrender?"

"I'm willing...please ask Mr. Zhang to give me a way out and work as a cow or a horse..."

"Keep your voice down... Bei Yameni, who is accompanying me this time, will name the three most hated names in daily life, and then the three best ones."

"Yes Yes Yes……"

"Okay." Zhang Xing wrote down the name, then went to see Xiao Zhou and Jia Yue, and warned carefully. "Take him down and put him in the hall... The same goes for the people who come after him, but he must be placed in three or four places in the hall.

You can also put them outside to highlight the chaos, but also divide them into piles...don't let them talk randomly."

Xiao Zhou and Jia Yue immediately woke up.

In fact, there were not many prisoners, because there were not many people who could be accommodated in the annex, not to mention that they killed a lot of people. Putting aside the few dignitaries and nobles in the hall, there were only forty or fifty people.

However, these forty or fifty people were either accomplished patrolmen, or the father-in-law of Beiya who knew writing and arithmetic, and some of them were local officials who handled logistics and intelligence.

In other words, at least they are all people who can be said to have special skills, otherwise some of the leaders of the Deposed Dragon Gang would not be afraid.

In this way, it took about an hour and a half. When the time came to the fourth watch, Zhang Xing just completed the statistics, but he looked at the list in his hand, listened to the wind outside the house, and remained silent for a long time.

To put it bluntly, Zhang Xing is not unaware of the superficial pursuit of interests behind these people... those who desperately want to survive, those who want to survive but are worried about their family fortunes, and those who want to pretend to give it a try, including those messy xenophobes and jealousies within the Deposed Dragon Gang

, as well as a red eye on the lower side and weak knees on the upper side.

However, he knew that he could not easily ignore these objective superficial interests and the superficial performances of those people.

Especially those prisoners, everyone is destined to be complicated and must have their own story. Maybe the cruel people are particularly loyal and are really useful in battle; maybe they never do bad things but are just in the family.

Deep down, they despise the Deposed Dragon Gang and will directly defect to the enemy when the time comes; there may even be real heroes hidden among the silent ones, while those who show their surrender are loyal ministers of the Wei Dynasty who are ready to find an opportunity to kill themselves to repay the emperor's kindness.

But so what? If he can do this, he has already lived up to the conscience of heaven and earth.

Zhang Xing sighed for a moment, and then immediately asked Xiao Zhou outside the door to call Xu Shiying to come in.

"Sit." After a while, Xu Dalang came over. Zhang Xing, who was looking down at the form, raised his hand and pointed. This startled the leader of Xu Dalang, who had made a great success today, to panic for no reason. Then he put his hands and feet together and carefully sat down on the couch opposite.

, at first glance, it seems that he is more honest than the previous prisoners.

"Take a look." After the other party sat down, Zhang Xingfang handed over the form in his hand. "I have some ideas. Come and give me a slap."

Xu Shiying is a smart man, so he just scanned the form in his hand once, and when he heard this again, he immediately became a little disillusioned, but still maintained his posture and lowered his voice and asked: "What is the number of the third brother?"

"I thought about it. After all, the rebellion of the Deposed Dragon Gang requires people, so we should try our best to attract talents... Let King Xiongtian hide for a while, but his status is too high, and he insists on killing everyone and fighting against each other.

Fu Jiangren is a little dissatisfied. He is here, and there are people supporting him below. There are some things that are hard to say... This is one of them." Zhang Xing introduced seriously.

Xu Dalang also nodded immediately. It was not like he had not seen the argument in the hall just now. He knew from the moment Xiong Bonan was sent away that Zhang Xing was prepared to surrender.

"But how to recruit talents, you must also follow rules... For example, when two armies are fighting, naturally those who surrender will live, and those who do not surrender will die. Otherwise, even those who do not surrender will be released, and how can we explain to those who are willing to risk surrender?

?This is the basic and second step.”

Zhang Xing continued to talk, but it did not exceed the other party's expectations.

"In addition, since you are willing to surrender, you have to treat them as half of your own family, so you have to consider their difficulties. If you want to change your name, you must not let the court and family know, and you must cooperate... This is

Third.

"Fourth, I feel that since we are going to rebel, and since we are calling for peace in the world, we should do something upright... Those who surrender must cover up, but those who do not surrender are the enemy, so we should understand

Canonical punishment... So, when King Xiongtian comes back, I am going to let you take some people and those who are willing to surrender to escape at night, and go back to Gushu to resettle.

.”

Xu Dalang was finally startled and immediately nodded to express his support.

"Finally." Zhang Xing added the last thing before the other party spoke. "Rewarding good and punishing evil should not be the first priority in war, but if possible, we should still do it and tell the world what we are not.

We have ideas and concepts, and we can lead them to bring peace to the world... So according to the list, I selected three people with poor reputations and three people with good reputations from Beiya, Jing'antai, and local officials.

Yes, we will compare the list of those who surrendered and those who did not surrender, and we will find four who are unwilling to surrender and prepare a public pardon; the six who have surrendered will still be executed! What do you think?"

"Third Brother has dealt with it as thoroughly as possible, but I don't know what other specific instructions Third Brother has besides taking the surrendered people away? I am willing to do my best." Xu Dalang suddenly put down the form and stood up without restraint.

"Of course I have to rely on you." Zhang Xing responded calmly. "One is to wait for King Xiongtian to come back, and you have to explain it to him as clearly as possible. The other is to clear up those confused thoughts before King Xiongtian comes back.

Please comfort the leader..."

"This is natural." Xu Shiying nodded immediately.

"Besides." Zhang Xing asked seriously. "Let me ask you, how is Cao Wang's official reputation? Is there any special saying or thing that I don't know about?"

Xu Shiying was stunned, but immediately reacted, and then lowered her voice and responded seriously: "I haven't heard that it's particularly good or bad... It's just that the spectrum is a bit big on weekdays."

"That's the same as what I know." Zhang Xing nodded. "It's nothing. Tomorrow I will take him back with King Xiongtian, kill Duke Gao, and pardon Shen Ding... You can bring Mr. Zhang in again."

.”

Xu Dalang was finally completely stunned. After a few breaths, he asked in a low voice: "Do you want to kill even Mr. Zhang?"

"If he didn't surrender, why didn't he kill him?" Zhang Xing asked seriously with a face as usual. "Besides, this kind of art of rewarding good and punishing evil, and doing justice for heaven, would be insufficient if only one governor of Beiya was killed... On the contrary,

If you can kill a Nanya Xianggong in a grand manner, it will be enough to shock the world."

Xu Dalang was confused and could only answer.

After a while, Zhang Shizhao was carried by Xu Shiying and placed on the couch. Then the latter tore off the rope around his mouth, took out the torn linen cloth in his mouth, and put it on the table... After all this was done

, Xu Dalang just stood at the threshold, unwilling to leave.

The other party was a big boss, and Zhang Xing was not easy to win over. He could only pick up the form, look at it for a moment to Zhang Shizhao opposite him, then immediately take it back, fill in the first few boxes for the other party, and then ask seriously:

"Zhang Shizhao, are you willing to surrender?"

Zhang Shizhao, who had been blocked for almost a night, opened his numb mouth, but there was no sound.

"If you feel sour, just nod or shake your head." Zhang Xing reminded seriously. "Are you willing to surrender?"

Zhang Xianggong looked at the young man in front of him, and for a long time, he said solemnly: "Of course I am afraid of death, but you must tell me, what happened last night and you have become famous, how are you going to deal with the queen?"

When Xu Shiying heard this, he immediately came to see Zhang Xing.

"I'm telling you, just tell me whether you will surrender or not?" Zhang Xing asked seriously.

"good."

"I plan to plunder all the belongings accompanying me here, and ask the officials of Liang County to distribute Songcheng's military weapons, money, silk, and grain to redeem the Queen and Prefect Cao. Then, after the accompanying servants and soldiers have dispersed, I will hand over the Queen, the harem, and princesses.

Make an alliance with Huaiyou and let them be the middlemen to receive it, and then continue to escort him south to Jiangdu." Zhang Xing answered calmly. "As for Liang County, it doesn't hurt to use a few more cities as a buffer."

"That's right! It's enough to rob for real and fame, but there is no need to keep the queen as a loser, and drag the Huaiyou Alliance into trouble." Zhang Shizhao responded sincerely, but couldn't follow up again. "But why can't we let it go?

Are they coming to redeem me too?"

"Reducing or not reducing?" Zhang Xing couldn't wait to ask, so he raised his pen and hovered over the form.

Xu Shiying also set his sights on the famous Nanya Prime Minister again.

Zhang Shizhao was silent for a long time and then responded slowly: "I am the Prime Minister after all, so it is not a bad idea to die in Huanshui..."

Zhang Xing sighed and was about to write the word "no surrender".

But soon, Mr. Zhang who was sitting on the couch continued: "But if you can cover up for me and change my name, you may not kill me in Huanshui... Zhang Sanlang... I may not be unable to surrender to the rear.

The only thing is, I will only surrender you, but not the Dragon Gang, do you dare to agree?"

Xu Shiying, who was inside the threshold, could no longer count how many times he had changed his color tonight, and he didn't know whether he should intervene.

Zhang Xing, on the other hand, after a moment of silence, immediately responded seriously: "I can find someone from among the prisoners to pretend to be you and kill you in Huanshui, but you must join the Deposed Dragon Gang, and you can be a gang member.
To be continued...
