Chapter 350 One Person for Hundreds of People

There was a flash of anger in his eyes and he spat in disdain.

Even though he was kneeling on the ground, he still faced everyone with a proud attitude and said firmly,

'Father, don't worry about me.

I was caught by these people because I underestimated the enemy.

I am willing to use my flesh and blood to contribute to the Great Jin's conquest of Daqi, even if I am torn to pieces.

Father, I have one last word for you.

Five years ago, I went to your study to ask you for advice.

I accidentally heard your lifelong ambition, it’s very ambitious!

In this regard, my son wants to tell you that you should speak openly about your ambitions.

As long as you say it, everyone will support you because you have the ability to do so.

From that moment on, my son understood what kind of person you are, and I am proud of you. I don't want to die, nor do I want your ambitions to remain unknown.

But my son had to die, and I hope more people know your ambitions!

So my son decided to speak out your aspirations before he dies, so that everyone in the world can see! '

Ji You's face twisted, his hands clenched, and his cold and murderous aura came out. Meng Tong quickly noticed it and whispered,

"General, calm down!"

Ji You came back to his senses and said with a fake smile,

"Mengtong, my son is really capable!"

Meng Tong was speechless. After all, he had followed the old man for many years and knew some secrets. He could also sense the hidden meaning in Master Ji Ming's words.

Meng Tong comforted him, “General, there is no need for you to be angry.

Linyang City has also captured many Daqi people, all of whom are the subjects of Emperor Daqi. We can use the common people to exchange for the Third Young Master!"

Here, Ji You was whispering with the military advisor.

Over there, Yu Honghui quietly asked Shen Zhao,

“Sir, I see that Ji You on the opposite side doesn’t care about this kid at all. It’s useless for us to capture him. Instead, it will only help to rally Ji You’s troops.

How about we use this kid to exchange for the people of Linyang City!"

Yu Honghui said ashamedly, "At that time, I had already asked people to persuade the people to leave, but some people were greedy for their property, or were far away from the city gate, or were captured on the way. A total of hundreds of people were detained in Linyang City as prisoners and treated arbitrarily by the Jin people. I want to rescue them."

Shen Zhao asked, "Have these people heard how they were treated?

Could it be possible that the Great Jin would kill innocent people again?"

Yu Honghui had a look of hatred on his face and gritted his teeth and said,

"According to our spies, the Jin soldiers plundered the people's property at will.

If I want to fight, I fight. If I want to kill, I kill. I never have any concerns."

After hearing this, Shen Zhao put aside his original hesitation.

She was actually thinking about waiting for a few days until Linyang City was recaptured, and then the people of Daqi would follow back.

Otherwise, we can just welcome them back casually, and who knows if there will be a few enemy undercovers mixed in?

If something happens at that time, it will be hard to prevent and will cause a lot of trouble.

In Shen Zhao's understanding, when two countries are at war, even if they occupy each other's cities, they will not attack the civilians at will.

After all, the people are the core of a city. Only with the people can any people's livelihood activities proceed smoothly and the city can develop in an orderly manner.

This is also the reason why Shen Zhao wanted to welcome the people back later.

But since Yu Honghui brought it up, he also explained the plight of the people.

Shen Zhao would not stand by and watch them die, but he needed to think carefully about how to resettle these people.

At this time, GuaGua came online.

[Host, are you worried that these returning civilians will infiltrate the enemy's spies and cause sabotage in Tailin City?

Don't worry about this, Guagua can tell whether this person is originally from Linyang City.

You can also find out if there are any spies among these people. When they come, Guagua will help you check! 】

Guagua's words made Shen Zhao overjoyed, and he praised him repeatedly.

[Gua Gua, you are so awesome.]

I really like you, I really like you! 】

In response to the host's straightforward compliments, Gua Gua ran away shyly.

Shen Zhao then turned his attention back to Yu Honghui and found that he was looking at him expectantly. Shen Zhao answered without hesitation,

"Of course, General Yu, these are our Daqi people, of course we have to welcome them back!"

Yu Honghui disguised his expression well, knowing that there was no need to worry about welcoming back these people, but he remembered another concern and asked directly,

“Sir, I just don’t know if Ji You will agree.

He may not accept exchanging hundreds of people for one person!"

Shen Zhao said confidently, "General Yu, don't worry.

Ji You will definitely agree!"

Next, Shen Zhao performed a show.

He walked up to Ji Ming and carried him to the edge of the city.

Holding the person in his left hand and a small trumpet in his right hand, he hummed,

“General Ji, your son is truly devoted to you.

You are such a good son that you still remembered your grand ambitions before you died!

What should I do? I suddenly don’t want to kill him anymore.

I won't get any benefit from killing him.

How about this, I heard that there are still hundreds of people from our Linyang City in your hands. I am not greedy, so I will exchange these people with Ji Ming.

After all, although there are many common people, Ji Ming's status is more noble!

Jiyou, think about it carefully!

Ji Ming is also your son, I don’t ask for much.

We, the people, have to spend food to feed them and be on the lookout for them to cause trouble for you at any time.

If a few of them were so desperate as to put drugs in the wells and rivers, you would all be wiped out.

Ji You, I'll give you an incense stick of time to think about it!"

Ji Ming performed at the right time and roared,

“Father, those who are not of my race must have different intentions.

You kill them all and teach Daqi a lesson.

As for me, I have so many people accompanying me to the underworld, so I am not afraid, this life is worth it! "

Ji You summoned a few confidants to discuss the matter, and all of their words expressed the desire to redeem Ji Ming.

Everyone can understand that although the general spoke firmly and decisively at the beginning, there are not many filial sons who are so considerate, always thinking about their old father and unwilling to embarrass their old father.

Moreover, what Master Ji Ming said, "Those who are not of my race must have different intentions," also makes sense.

There is no point in keeping these people. Killing so many people is a waste of time, and we might even be criticized and ridiculed by other countries. It is better to use the time to redeem Master Ji Ming.

The confidants spoke up one after another.

“General, although Master Ji Ming is willing to sacrifice himself, we have the conditions to redeem him and cannot give up on him.

Besides, the Saint sent a message that the weapons will arrive tomorrow.

When the time comes, we will bomb the city. Not to mention the few hundred civilians, all the people in Tailin City will become our prisoners.

Letting these people go back today is just a carnival before departure!"

Ji You said, “Everyone is right, let’s do this.

It's just that you still need to comfort the soldiers below."

Everyone nodded and said that they would complete the task well.

Two hours later, about five hundred people wearing tattered clothes and with surprised smiles on their faces walked into the gate of Tailin City.

Tears flowed from the corners of his eyes as he watched General Yu and his entourage kneel down to express their gratitude.

Yu Honghui was filled with great sorrow, but he remained calm on the outside and said in a loud voice,

"You're welcome. Just live a good life in Tailin City."

Letting other people arrange the whereabouts of these common people, Yu Honghui brought Shen Zhao and his party back to the general's mansion.

This general's mansion was a temporary reconstruction and is quite spacious.

Seeing that Yu Honghui was about to arrange things for them first, Shen Zhao had no choice but to say,

"General Yu, I heard that the Great Jin has a new weapon, called the Explosive Cannon, which can destroy solid city walls."
