Speaking of which, a few tribal leaders were directly fooled and dragged a few carts of food away.
Before they left, the leaders swore in front of Li Ke that if they dared to betray him, they would die a horrible death.
Facing such a good person like Li Ke, they were about to cry.
In fact, the people of the major tribes had been filled with fear ever since their leaders were taken away.
All along, the defeated tribes did not have a good ending.
Not only could they not guarantee their lives, but even their women and daughters would not be spared. They were already prepared to pay a huge price.
Thus, when Zhou Tong returned, a large group of Mountain Tribe members gathered around him. Seeing that their leader was safe and sound, they immediately burst into tears.
"Chief, are you alright?"
"They didn't torture you, did they?”
Zhou Tong's wife surrounded him and examined him from top to bottom. Only when she found that Zhou Tong was fine did she heave a sigh of relief, but she became even more worried.
"Husband, the Blazing Flame Army let you off just like that. Is there a trap?”
Was there a trap?
Zhou Tong glared at his wife and angrily said,"What do you know? His Lordship is actually here to save us. It's just that we don't know what's good for us.”
"What?"
The group of subordinates were instantly dumbfounded. What was going on? Was their leader crazy? How could he say such a thing?
Saving people was not using a knife or bow.
Moreover, so many people had died. This was too ridiculous.
Zhou Tong gave a cold snort and ordered his men to open the large chest behind him, revealing the white rice inside, as well as the large mushrooms, candies, and the like.
Mumble!
Everyone, who was already mentally exhausted, could not help but swallow their saliva. Their leader had struck it rich.
"Hmph, don't be ungrateful. His Lordship told us that as long as we follow him, we will have rice to eat every day and meat to eat every day.”
"Our children can still study and become officials in the future to help us build our homeland."
Everyone's initial disapproval gradually turned solemn.
The things that Zhou Tong was talking about caused them to feel incomparable yearning. This was simply the paradise of their dreams.
Zhou Tong's wife's eyes were bloodshot as she hugged her eight-year-old son tightly. She sobbed,"Is there really such a day? Then it's probably the immortal world.”
"Don't worry, we can do it in the future. His Lordship is the messenger of heaven, specially sent to save us from danger.”
Mountain Tribe looked at the grain and was momentarily stunned.
The same thing happened to the other tribes. In just one night, the attitudes of these people changed drastically. They began to try to accept the Flame Army.
For a time, the number of supporters of the Blazing Flame Army soared.
The scene that Li Ke had mentioned yesterday, even he had some yearning. That was the true paradise.
"My lord, you are truly too great!”Wei Ling looked at Li Ke with tears in her eyes. When she saw Li Ke's appearance, her body was glowing. Only a saint would have such a heart.
She was in charge of monitoring these tribes and saw the mountain people who were moved to tears with her own eyes. She felt that her lord was too great to have such a lofty dream.
The corner of Li Ke's mouth twitched. This silly girl really believed it. She was too easy to deceive.
"How is it? Are there any problems with the people from the tribes?”
Wei Ling nodded and said excitedly," They're very happy. It's obvious that they've suffered for too long, so they didn't believe it for a while. But I'm sure they won't rebel.”
Haha!
Li Ke naturally didn't believe this, but the moment they knelt down and surrendered, everything about them couldn't escape the system's surveillance, so he wasn't afraid of their betrayal at all.
As long as they made any strange movements, Li Ke's system would issue a warning, and he could completely suppress them.
Jiang Yingyu was deep in thought. His lord's move might seem unnecessary, but it was actually worth tens of thousands of gold. At least the resistance of these tribes had decreased a lot.
When he organized them in the morning, these people weren't so resentful anymore. Instead, they were somewhat cooperative, so he was very curious.
"My lord, this is not bad, but our consumption is very high!”
Zhang Sheng's mouth twitched. He had been used by Li Ke to transport grain and thought that it was for the army to eat. He did not expect it to be a gift.
However, it had to be said that this move was very good to win the hearts of the people, but the Lord's Manor could not withstand such consumption at all.
Li Ke waved his hand and smiled." Things that can be solved with money are not problems. I'll give you 100,000 taels of silver in a while. Buy food and supplies as soon as possible."”
F * ck, awesome.
Zhang Sheng was shocked by Li Ke's generosity. Was his lord so rich?
One hundred thousand taels of silver was simply too generous.
In fact, Li Ke did not value silver at all because the system currency was gold coins.
The silver was all plundered by other forces during this period of time. To him, it was just a currency and he did not care at all.
However, gold was different. In the past few days, he had exchanged all the gold in his territory for silver. Now, he had nearly 100,000 gold coins in his hands.
"I know you're very confused." Why do we have to send them food even though we have conquered them? This is actually very simple, because what we need is not conquest, but salvation.”
"Save?"
Everyone was dumbfounded. They even wondered if they had heard wrongly. They had killed tens of thousands of people, but they were still saving others.
