With a million soldiers, the empress begged me not to rebel

Night Owl scratched his head and said, "Sir, what should we do?"

Lu Yan raised his lips to an evil smile:

"Let's play with them. We're in need of labor to build a branch county. These barbarians are as strong as bulls. It would be a waste if we didn't use them!"

When they arrived at the county government office, Ariba and other barbarian captives were tied together.

Kneeling in the yard like a lamb to be slaughtered.

Lu Yan walked up to Ariba with a swagger.

She stepped on his face and spat condescendingly:

"Hey, isn't this King Ariba?

After not seeing you for a few days, you look like a dead dog?

Weren't you awesome back then? Invincible?

Why are you kneeling on the ground licking the soles of my shoes like a stray dog? "

Ariba raised his head and glared at Lu Yan angrily.

But he didn't dare to speak, for fear of angering this insidious and cunning county magistrate.

Lu Yan suddenly grabbed Ariba's chin.

Force him to look up and look at himself:

"Why are you silent? Are you scared?"

"Or, what dirty tricks are you thinking up in your dog's head?"

Ariba snorted coldly, turned his head away, and refused to look at Lu Yan.

"Oh, you're pretty tough?"

Lu Yan was not annoyed. He stood up and clapped his hands.

"Come on, prepare some delicious food for our King Ariba and treat him well."

Soon, several yamen runners brought over a basin of...pig food.

"King Ariba, please."

Lu Yan made a "please" gesture with a playful smile on his face.

Ariba's face turned pale and blue.

He, the king of the barbarians, was humiliated like this!

He clenched his teeth, clenched his fists, and his nails almost dug into his flesh.

"What, you don't want to eat it? Are you disgusted with it?" Lu Yan raised his eyebrows.

"No, that won't do. This is a specialty of Shannan County, specially prepared for you. You must eat it."

As he spoke, Lu Yan winked at Night Owl beside him.

Night Owl understood what he meant and stepped forward immediately.

Pinch Ariba's nose and force him to open his mouth.

Then pour all the pig feed into it.

Ariba was choked and coughed continuously.

Tears and snot were flowing out, and he looked extremely miserable.

The barbarian captives around saw this scene and were angry but dared not say anything.

He could only lower his head silently, his eyes filled with humiliation and anger.

Lu Yan looked at Ariba's miserable condition and felt secretly happy.

He just wanted to humiliate Ariba and make him understand.

If it falls into your hands, don’t expect to have a good life!

"How is it, King Ariba, is it delicious?"

Lu Yan asked with a smile.

Ariba glared at Lu Yan fiercely and squeezed out a few words from between his teeth:

"Lu Yan, you will die a miserable death!"

"Oh, I'm so scared."

Lu Yan patted his chest in fear, then his face darkened.

"It seems that King Ariba is still not convinced, so let's add some more ingredients."

Lu Yan ordered the yamen runners to strip Ariba and the other barbarian captives naked.

Then they were tied together with ropes and led like animals to the vegetable garden in the backyard of the county government office, where they were asked to plow the land.

The sun was shining brightly, and Ariba and the others were shirtless.

Sweating profusely, he worked hard in the fields.

They were covered in dirt and grime, and their former pride and dignity were long gone.

Lu Yan sat in the pavilion, drinking iced sour plum soup.

While enjoying the scene of Ariba and others working, I felt so relaxed.

"Report to the Lord, General Lu Fei and his men have also returned, escorting the barbarian captives!"

A bailiff ran into the county government office panting, interrupting Lu Yan's "viewing the scenery" activity.

Lu Yan stretched lazily, with a playful smile on his lips:

"Oh? Let's go and take a look."

As soon as he walked out of the county government office, Lu Yan was shocked by the scene before him.

Wow, there is such a dark crowd, much more than the group brought by Ariba!

Lu Yan's heart exploded with ecstasy!

Developed!

With so many people, my new county town can be built in the blink of an eye!

By then, hehe, I will lie comfortably in the new yamen.

Surrounded by beauties, you will enjoy endless wealth and glory!

"Lu Fei, you did a good job this time!"

Lu Yan walked up to Lu Fei and patted his shoulder vigorously.

"I'll remember your contribution this time!"

Lu Fei grinned, revealing a mouthful of white teeth:

"It's all thanks to you that we brothers are able to be so brave!"

Lu Yan nodded with satisfaction, glanced at the dejected barbarian captives, and began to think about how to deal with these people.

"All the little brats over the age of five, strip them naked, shave their heads, and put them in iron chains!

Fifty in a bundle, if anyone dares to complain, I'll bury them all together!"

Lu Yan's voice was as cold as ice, just like the King of Hell judging life and death.

"All children under the age of five, regardless of gender, will be sent to Night Owl, who will train them to become special forces soldiers!

I want to make them the sharpest blades for my use!"

"As for women..."

Lu Yan smiled evilly, a hint of hunting excitement flashing in his eyes.

"Have the female soldiers guarding the city thoroughly investigate. Those who are healthy and unmarried will all be awarded to our unmarried soldiers!"

As soon as these words were spoken, the surrounding soldiers cheered.

"Your Excellency is wise!"

"Long live the Lord!"

Lu Yan waved his hand, signaling everyone to be quiet, and continued:

"Brothers! Choose according to your merits! Whichever woman you want, take her home to warm your bed!

The remaining ones are sent to the factory to be put to work!

With these barbarian girls, our bachelor brothers in Beiliang County can also get married!"

Lu Fei looked anxious: "Sir, where are we going to house so many captives?"

Lu Yan smiled contemptuously and waved his hand:

“Don’t worry about those women, they will be distributed to the brothers in a few days.

As for these restless barbarians, they will be sent to build roads tomorrow!

Pick out a few obedient and ruthless ones, fight them with violence, and let them fight each other!"

Thinking of this, Lu Yan couldn't help but feel a little proud.

I am such a genius!

This move, by removing the fuel from the fire, solved the problem of labor shortage.

And can effectively control these barbarian captives!

After dealing with the prisoners, Lu Yan was in a good mood and returned to the county government office humming a little tune.

The entire Shannan County is like a machine wound up with a full spring.

It started to work according to what Lu Yan had in mind.

As soon as Lu Yan returned to the county government office, he began to arrange a celebration banquet to reward the soldiers who had made great contributions in the fight against the barbarians.

"Go, call the best chefs in the county. I'm going to have a celebration banquet tonight, and it has to be sumptuous!

"I want delicious fish and meat, delicacies from the mountains and the sea, chicken, duck, fish and everything else!"

"And the wine, it has to be the best daughter's red wine, as much as you can get!"

"If any cook dares to cut corners, I'll stuff him into a pig cage and throw him into the moat to feed the turtles!"

Lu Yan gestured with his hands as he spoke.

It was as if I had already seen the clinking of glasses and toasting at the celebration banquet.
