Chapter 248 Disposing of Liu Bao
Guo Jia looked at Butter and said, "Ford, these captives, you should temporarily detain them for a few days. This problem will be resolved in a short time."

"Yes." Butter replied. He naturally believed what Guo Jia said. Although he didn't know how Guo Jia would solve it, he believed in Guo Jia.

Guo Jia looked at Gao Shun again, "Ying Tian, ​​these captives, you have to find a way to control them so that there are no problems. I have a few ideas, what do you think?"

"My lord, please tell me." Gao Shun naturally would not doubt Guo Jia's plan.

Guo Jia said with a smile: "First of all, the food for the prisoners of war must be well-balanced, so that they are so hungry that they have no strength to resist. But it must not make them unbearable and jump over the wall in a hurry.

Secondly, the Xiongnu's army is provided by various tribes. You have to find a way to separate these tribes, and let unfamiliar or even conflicting tribes be imprisoned together to reduce their chances of communication.

Then, various middle and low-level officers and leaders among the prisoners of war were detained separately, and they could not be locked up with ordinary prisoners of war, in case they had a leader, and they became bolder.

Finally, if someone dares to make trouble, you don't have to report to me, just execute him directly, and make an example of others. I don't kill people, but it doesn't mean I don't dare. "At the end, Guo Jia's voice gradually became colder, and the air of killing suddenly came out.

"Yes." Upon hearing this, Gao Shun quickly agreed, these good solutions were beyond his expectation.

"My lord, what should I do with Liu Bao?" Gao Shun asked.

"What do you think?" Guo Jia asked without answering.

"He is the chief culprit, he has committed a heinous crime and deserves to be killed," Dian Wei said.

However, Guo Jia shook his head: "Liu Bao is Zuo Xianwang, the biological son of the Xiongnu Shanyu. If we kill him and never die forever, our life will be difficult. Although we are not afraid of them, we will have no chance to develop. gone."

"Are you going to let him go?" Dian Wei asked in bewilderment.

Guo Jia shook his head again, and said with a smile, "How could it be so easy to escape when it's in my hands?"

"Then it's better to hand him over to the imperial court and let the imperial court dispose of him, then it has nothing to do with us." Xu Huang said, according to the regulations, such a prisoner of war with status should indeed be disposed of by the imperial court.

"The imperial court?" Xi Zhicai smiled disdainfully: "The emperor of the Han Dynasty only respected Confucianism, and he was always compassionate. Thinking about beating the Huns to the point that they were powerless to fight back, he wanted to show kindness and compassion and spare them , and gave them the fertile land in Hanoi, and ended up raising tigers, which made many Han people suffer.”

"That's right." Guo Jia agreed, "If Liu Bao is handed over to the court, the result will definitely be nothing. In the end, Liu Bao will still be let go."

Seeing what Guo Jia said, Xi Zhicai suddenly realized something, and said with a smile: "It seems that the lord has already had an idea, why let everyone listen to it."

When everyone heard this, they all looked at Guo Jia. They were smiling and confident. It seemed that they had already made up their minds.

Guo Jia said: "We still have to hand it over to the court. If we handle it privately, it will only increase our tongues and give those gentry a chance to attack us."

"But didn't my lord just say that handing it over to the court will end up with nothing?" Xu Huang asked.

"That's right, so what I said to hand over to the court is just for show, not for real handing over." Guo Jia said.

"Pretending to be?" Everyone asked in puzzlement.

"That's right." Guo Jia said, "I'm planning to let Butter go to Luoyang to report the victory, claiming that we have won the battle, and when the affairs here are settled, Liu Bao will be escorted to Luoyang. According to my estimation, The emperor and those important officials in the court must not wait until that day, and they will let us release Liu Bao."

"Why?" Chunyi asked.

"It's very simple. The situation between the DPRK and China is tense, and the major powers are constantly fighting. And Liu Bao is the son of the Xiongnu Shanyu. If he is not released for a long time, he will definitely anger Fuluo Shanyu, and he may start a war with me. At that time, the Xianbei, Wuhuan, and Qiang people may all help in the battle, and no matter which force it is, they will suffer, so they are naturally unwilling." Guo Jia said.

"These people don't care about the interests of the big man, and only think about themselves. At such a time of life and death, they still think about harming the public and private interests, damn it." Zhao Yun said with a look of pain and hatred.

As soon as these words came out, everyone's faces showed the same pain for the big man and hatred for those who scrambled for power and profit.

Only Xi Zhi was overjoyed: "Master, I have a plan."

"Say!" Xi Zhicai has always been calm, but now he is not hiding his joy, he must have thought of some good idea, Guo Jia also wants to know Xi Zhicai's thoughts.

"Butter is going to Luoyang now, why don't you ask him to bring more treasures and treasures, contact the eunuch party, and take advantage of this big victory to find a high-ranking official and generous salary for the Lord." Xi Zhicai said with a smile, with a look of teasing on his face.

Li Yi was not happy at that time: "Mr. Xi, the lord is such a person who covets high officials and rich salary. How can you play with the lord like this."

"Yes." Everyone agreed.

Only Guo Jia thought a little bit, he knew that Xi Zhicai's words must not be so simple: "Zhicai, keep talking."

"It's true that my lord does not covet high officials and high salary, but I didn't design for my lord, but for everyone here." Xi Zhicai saw that everyone was puzzled and didn't hide it, and continued: "Wuyuan After all, it’s the hinterland of the Huns, it’s too dangerous, so we’d better not go there. The lord has made a great contribution this time, and it’s a world-class contribution that no one can refute. Taking this opportunity, we can seek another position without seeking It’s too high, as long as it’s a safer place for us to develop properly, that’s enough.”

"I agree." Gao Shun was the first to agree, "If the eunuchs are allowed to cheer for such a credit, the emperor will not refuse and will not refuse, and the gentry will have no excuses no matter how hard they want."

Soon, everyone agreed, only Butter asked in puzzlement: "Then why did you only contact the eunuch? If He Miao, Xun Fu, Yuan Shu, and Kong Rong contacted together, wouldn't the hope be greater?"

Xi Zhicai replied with a smile: "Little man He Miao is no different from He Jin. He has no faith and no righteousness. I'm afraid he has forgotten us long ago. It's useless to find him. Although Yuan Shu has a powerful status, he is not the head of the Yuan family after all. Now the power of the Yuan family is in Yuan Shah's hands, and he can't be too big a master. As for Kong Rong, these celebrities don't need to be contacted, they will naturally sing praises for the Lord. It would be strange if they didn't speak. I'm sorry for their great Confucian status. As for the Xun family."

Xi Zhicai looked at Guo Jia and fell silent.

Everyone is not stupid, everyone knows the relationship between Xun Yu, the lord and Xi Zhicai, presumably the two of them don't want to drag the Xun family into trouble.After all, although the gentry could not object to this matter, they must be dissatisfied. If the Xun family helped Guo Jia to get ahead, they would be hated.Besides, Xun Yu is the same as Yuan Shu, Xun Shuang, not Xun Yu, is in charge of the Xun Mansion at this moment.

Guo Jia said calmly: "This plan is very good. You don't have to worry about Ford. It is enough to have the help of the eunuchs. After all, this great victory will soon be known to everyone. As long as the eunuchs give them enough benefits, they will You can handle things, don't worry." Obviously, he didn't talk about the Xun Mansion, presumably because he knew the situation of the Xun Mansion, and he didn't want to embarrass Xun Yu.
