After losing the vest at the beginning, the female general was forced to marry the scheming prince

Chapter 333 How to deal with the aftermath?

Qu Chu felt sorry for not capturing King Jiangcheng, but he had no choice but to go back home.

Although King Jiangcheng fled, the more than 1 troops he brought with him failed to escape.

The defense of the Luo Mansion is very capable. Not only is it well aware of the terrain, streets, buildings, and residential environment of the Luo Mansion, but it is also very good at deploying and controlling the Luo Mansion.

He arranged for 1 Luo Mansion garrison troops to act at the same time, and with great force, captured more than [-] private troops brought by King Jiangcheng in just one day.

Of course, those who resisted were killed immediately.

During the operation, the Luo Mansion garrison sounded the emergency gongs and drums, which meant that a major emergency happened in the Luo Mansion and asked the people to stay at home and not come out.

Qu Chu discovered:

When the emergency gongs and drums sounded, although the people were a little panicked, they didn't run around or scream. Instead, they quickly closed the doors that should be closed, closed the business, and hid in their homes or shops.

Qu Chu asked Gao Ping: "Have you organized the common people to practice before?"

Gao Ping said:
"There will always be an emergency drill every year, but before the drill, there will be a notice posted, and there will be advance notice with gongs and drums, but this time there is no."

Qu Chu's impression of the Luo Mansion's garrison improved by two points. Although Fang Lingru arranged this garrison, at least he is a competent official.

"What about the city lord of Luofu? Doesn't he object to the emergency drill of the defense organization?"

"As long as his interests are not harmed, the Lord of Luo Mansion will live in peace with other officials and will not interfere with the defense affairs."

Qu Chu thought to himself:

From this point of view, the Lord of Luo Mansion is not a narrow-minded person.Moreover, the Luo Mansion can maintain such a prosperous scene, and the people live and work in peace and contentment, thanks to the Lord of the Luo Mansion.

I think when she went to the Jianghuai area, the Jianghuai area with its economic background was in depression, and the people were displaced.Compared with the original situation in Jianghuai, Luo Mansion is much better.

With these understandings, Qu Chu's impression of the city lord of Luofu became a bit better, and he was tolerant of the city lord of Luofu's likes to entertain and give away his concubines.

As long as he cares about the common people and is not a traitor or spy, it doesn't matter which adult he is in the court.

Although the defense has been done well enough, bloodshed and death are inevitable during this cleaning process, and innocent people will inevitably suffer, but in Qu Chu's view, such casualties are already excellent.

Qu Chu secretly rejoiced: If the defense really took refuge in King Jiangcheng, given his familiarity with Luo Mansion, it would not be so easy for him to control Luo Mansion.

The war situation is under control, and the follow-up aftermath work cannot be ignored.

Originally, the aftermath of the Luo Mansion should be carried out by the Lord of the Luo Mansion, but Qu Chu has not met the Lord of the Luo Mansion until now.

When Qu Chu was considering whether to send someone to find the Lord of Luo Mansion, Gao Ping brought a person in.

"General, this is the Lord of Luo Mansion."

Qu Chu glanced at the Lord of Luo Mansion.

The Lord of the Luo Mansion showed a friendly smile, "I didn't know that the general came to the Luo Mansion before, and I forgot about Haihan if he was negligent."

"It doesn't matter," Qu Chu said, "It's just in time for you to come. The Luo Mansion has just calmed down a storm, so you come to deal with the aftermath."

If it was before the incident was calmed down, Qu Chu would not dare to use him. Now that the matter has subsided, comparing him with the former Jianghuai officials found that he is much stronger. Qu Chu thinks he can be used.

The Lord of Luo Mansion did not refuse.

"The lower official only knew something happened in the Luo Mansion when he heard the sound of emergency gongs and drums. After the incident was over, the lower official rushed over immediately. It is the lower official's job to appease the people.

However, on the way here just now, Xiaguan found that although there were not many injured people, there were quite a few who suffered property losses. Xiaguan had an idea, could he join hands with the local officials in Luofu to treat them? "

Qu Chu didn't know the situation in Luo Mansion, so she didn't make decisions on her own.

"It's your job to appease the people under the rule. How to appease you is up to you. There is only one thing: you can't enrich your own pockets by making profits for the people. If I know about it, it will definitely not be tolerated."

The Lord of Luo Mansion didn't even dare to say anything, and left without any further gossip.

……

Someone is responsible for the aftermath of the Luo Mansion, but how to deal with the captured private army is a difficult problem.

Some of Jiangcheng King's private soldiers died during the arrest, and there are more than 8000 people left, but more than 8000 people are not a small number.

When Ning Youdi rebelled, his private army refused to surrender and was killed by Qu Chu in the end, but that was on the battlefield.

Today's private army is different from Ning Youdi's private army, and also different from the [-] private army raised by King Jiangcheng in Changqing.

These private troops are organized troops approved by the imperial court. Although they have been supported and used by the King of Jiangcheng since their establishment, they were also built under the imperial order.

Now that they have been captured, they cannot all be killed.

Since ancient times, there have been several ways to deal with rebels: kill them, exile them as coolies, incorporate them into the new army, or disarm them and return them to the fields.

Kill, Qu Chu can't do it.

Incorporated into the new army, Qu Chu didn't trust them, and there was no need for them.

It's not the right time to disarm and return to the fields.

Then there is only the last one left, let them serve hard labor first, and then let them be disarmed and returned to the fields after the war is over.

However, there are more than 8000 people, where should they be placed?
Just when Qu Chu was in trouble, someone who helped her solve her problems came.

……

Looking at Mrs. Hua who was sitting under her head, Qu Chu understood why Jiaorui respected her.

This is a person who is hard to forget at the first sight.

With white hair and wrinkles on her face, she looks like an old woman at first glance, but as long as she stands in front of you, you will unconsciously ignore her age.

Because there is a kind of brilliance in her body, which is a kind of vitality, hope and tolerance.

"General Qu, I heard from Rongfang that you are kind to her, so I have been thinking of coming to thank you. I just hope you don't think that I am trying to cling to you."

Mrs. Hua spoke frankly, but her voice was not as fast and crisp as a straight-hearted person, but soft and warm.

This is a warm person!
Qu Chu looked at Jiaorui who was sitting beside her, she was gentle and magnanimous, completely different from before, this is the expression that can only be had when living a very comfortable life.

Qu Chu couldn't help but smile:
"I can't say that I am kind to the fifth lady. It was the fifth lady who helped me a lot back then, and I repaid her one or two. The fifth lady respects you very much."

Mrs. Hua smiled and said:
"What do I have to respect? It's nothing more than making some money. Unlike you, the general, what you do is to protect the family and the country and benefit the country and the people."

Laughter is just as enjoyable!

And no matter what Mrs. Hua said, you don't think she is showing off or being modest, you only think that what she said is the truth.

Qu Chu likes her!
"General Qu, I heard that you are worrying about how to place the captured rebels. I have thought of a place for them. Can you tell me if it is possible?"
