Chapter 431? Capture Zhang Ren alive (1)(2/2)
"General Meng, you and my men build a camp." Xu Shu said to Meng Da again.
"No." Meng Da Yingnuo said, and rode his horse down. After thinking for a while, Xu Shu looked up and said to the civil servants in the army: "Please send someone to find Su Lao in these villages. I want to hold a banquet to entertain them in person."
"No." The civil servant responded to the promise and turned around.
Although Xu Shu issued an order that it would not harm the people, it was difficult. This valley was not big, except for villages and farmland.
The soldiers leveled the farmland and built large camps. They just didn't send troops to kill the people. Fortunately, it was already after the autumn harvest, and there were no crops in the fields.
But it still caused some trouble to the people.
But Xu Shu naturally had his own concerns.
After the Central Army's tent was built, Xu Shu waited in the tent and ordered the soldiers to kill pigs and sheep, and prepare wine and food.
Not long after, Xu Shu saw his personal soldiers walking in with a group of old men who were obviously afraid.
These old people are not ordinary villagers, but are all seniors with some reputation in the village.
Xu Shu was very polite. He stood up from his seat and went outside the tent to greet the elders, and then said politely: "Don't be afraid of elders. We are the royal army of the court and will not kill the people. I am Xu Shu, and my official position is the general of the military advisor. This time I came to your place and caused trouble to you, so I specially set up a banquet to apologize. In addition, I will compensate you for the damage caused to you by our soldiers. I also ask the elders to tell the villagers later."
Everyone was surprised. Wars broke out everywhere, and the riots were chasing and killing the people everywhere, but there were very few troops like Xu Shu.
Thank you too.
"General Xu is so kind. It's autumn now, and there are no crops in the fields. There is no need to worry about the general's compensation." An elder who seemed particularly famous stood up and said politely to Xu Shu.
"No, no, no. Compensation is still needed. Every household will compensate some." Xu Shu shook his head and insisted on saying.
Seeing these elders, they did not refuse.
Then, Xu Shu held a banquet in the tent to entertain everyone. After he had enough wine and food, he sent the elders back.
Because of this, the villagers in the valley were at peace. Xu Shu also ordered Gongsun Kang to guard all the mountain roads, only allowed to enter, not leave.
So he fell quietly and fell down.
