My younger brother Lü Fengxian

Chapter 209 Women Can Also Help
"We are willing to obey the orders of Chief Lu!"

After hearing this, everyone suppressed their fighting spirit a little.

"Gao Lan, you are familiar with these people because you have been with them day and night, so I will order you to manage them temporarily."

Lu Yi instructed Gao Lan who was standing beside him.

"Yes!" Gao Lan quickly got into the state and immediately saluted to Lu Yi with a fist salute like a subordinate.

"We have been under the control of the old thief Hutuo for many days. Now that the old thief Hutuo is dead, there is still a lot of food in the camp."

"It will take some time for the convoy that is transporting supplies to return. Let's have a good meal first, and then follow the convoy back to Luwu after it returns!"

After Lu Yi gave some instructions, he had Gao Lan and the captives taken away to prepare for dinner.

But his work is not yet done.

Captives with families and male captives are easier to deal with.

Giving them a bite to eat can quickly restore their physical strength and morale.

But single women are more miserable.

Thinking of this, Lu Yi couldn't help but sigh, and walked towards the location of the female captives under the guidance of his men.

The female captives were kept in several large tents.

This is both a control and a protection for them.

Although the Xianbei people look like humans.

But their nature is no different from that of the wild beasts on the grassland.

They are shameless and worship power.

Follow the animal desires in your body.

One can imagine what kind of torture a woman would suffer if she fell into their hands.

The double torture of physical and mental torture made her suffer greatly at the hands of the Xianbei people.

After Lu Yi gathered them together separately, looking at these women who had become like walking corpses, he couldn't help feeling deeply depressed, and his hatred towards the Xianbei people increased even more!

"There were more than 1,500 women captured by the captain. For some reason, after we occupied Hutto's camp, dozens of these women took advantage of the situation and committed suicide."

"I really don't understand. They were able to endure humiliation and survive under the clutches of the Xianbei people. Now that they have been rescued and regained their freedom, why do they want to commit suicide?"

The steward in charge of guarding these women saw Lu Yi coming and immediately introduced the situation to Lu Yi.

However, as he spoke, he also expressed the confusion in his heart.

"Ugh……"

Upon hearing this, Lu Yi immediately understood the psychological state of these female captives who committed suicide, and said to the little leader.

"These women have been ravaged by the Xianbei people. If they were strong-willed women, they probably wouldn't survive a single day."

"Those who survived are those who have become numb and have given up hope."

"The reason they were able to survive under the ravages of the Xianbei people was because they had no choice."

"If I were brought back to the grassland by the Xianbei people, I might be able to continue living in numbness."

"But now that they have been rescued by us and have regained their freedom, it also means that they have the opportunity to choose again."

"But there are only two options."

"One is to live in humiliation and be unable to raise their heads all day long, with the Xianbei people's atrocities against them being pointed at and criticized by their neighbors."

"The other kind is too ashamed to return home and simply chooses to die and put an end to it all."

"This……"

"What a damned dog!"

The young steward was stunned when he heard this. As a man, he had not figured it out for a while, but now that he had received Lu Yi's guidance, he immediately came to his senses. "Sisters!" Looking at the young steward with a look of resentment on his face, Lu Yi sighed again in his heart and spoke softly to the more than a thousand numb women in front of him.

When these women heard Lu Yi speak, they all looked at him blankly, as if their souls had been pulled out of their bodies.

"I am Lü Yi, the head of Jiuyuan Pavilion."

"I have killed the old villain Hutuo, and I have also destroyed the Hutuo tribe."

Lu Yi's words immediately had some effect.

Some women looked shocked and questioning.

It seemed to be saying that the Hutuo tribe was so powerful and the old thief Hutuo was so treacherous, how could he be killed by a young pavilion chief.

To them, this news was too far-fetched.

"I know you may not believe me."

"After all, words are useless."

Lu Yi continued to comfort her.

"But it is an indisputable fact that I have occupied Hutuo's camp. In less than an hour, the body of the old thief Hutuo will be brought back to the camp by my convoy. Then you sisters will believe that what I, Lu Yi, said is true."

"Did you really kill the old villain Hu Tuo and avenge us?"

Seeing that Lu Yi's expression did not seem fake, a woman immediately asked in disbelief.

"That's right!"

Lu Yi nodded and said firmly.

"The humiliation and suffering are over."

"Now I am giving you freedom and choice back."

"Whether you continue to live in numbness or commit suicide like the woman before, it is your freedom to choose."

"I don't judge your choice."

"If you are willing to continue living, you can follow me back to Jiuyuan. I will provide you with shelter and food. Of course, this requires you to work to the best of your ability."

"After the Xianbei people are defeated by the imperial army, if you want to go home, I will also provide you with travel expenses and food rations."

Lu Yi continued.

"But if I were you, my parents, husband, and children were killed by the Xianbei people, and I was also humiliated and tortured by them, I would make them pay with blood even if it meant untold hardships!"

"Although women cannot go to the battlefield to fight against the Xianbei, they can still do some work within their capabilities in Lvwu."

"The clothes you make can keep the warriors warm while fighting the Xianbei. The armor you make can protect the warriors. The bows and weapons you make can provide great help to the warriors."

"You know, in the end, whether it's the arrows that shoot into the bodies of the Xianbei bandits, the swords that pierce their hearts, or the long knives that chop off their heads, they can all come from your hands."

"It can be considered as a contribution to revenge the Xianbei people and protecting the country!"

Lu Yi's words were so passionate that they rekindled the colors in the eyes of these women.

These colors are surprisingly unified, called Revenge!
"Your Excellency is right. Living in such an unclear way, or dying in such an unclear way, will only benefit those fools!"

"Master Lu Yi, I am willing to join Lu Wu and help the warriors under your command!"

"That's right. Although I can't make weapons or armor, I can cook and wash clothes. I can also provide the soldiers with hot meals and warm and clean clothes!"

"very good!"

Seeing that the morale of most of the women was temporarily boosted by him, Lu Yi couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
