Coming here, he will serve as the new marshal to lead the three armies. For the prince, this is worse than having both of his arms broken. This news is the most fatal news for him. This second prince

He has always been a powerful figure in the army. There is nothing that can be done about it. There are only a few of their brothers who know military affairs. The second prince is the only one who has some ability. The others are not good at all. The emperor is called

He came here out of necessity.

The prince knew that he had failed this time. After returning to the capital, he would definitely not be the same as before. His failure this time could be said to be a miserable one. It pushed him to be opposed by most of the gentry.

Because a large number of the young masters of the Southern Empire have died, most of them are their most beloved sons or grandsons. No one wants such a result. Of course, the people from the Cao Family Trading Company must be

They really want this result. In their opinion, some things are like this. This can also make the people of the Cao Family Trading Company better prepared. The head coach of the Southern Empire has not come yet. After this failure, they are even more prepared.

will not come out easily, and the Cao Family Trading Company does not have the ability to attack. The war may enter a certain stalemate stage. Without the transportation of airships, it will take the second prince of the Southern Empire a week at the earliest to reach the front line.

Come on, the Cao Family Trading Company can quickly transport more than 2 million troops to the front line during this period of time, which can make itself stronger. Although there is still a huge gap with the Southern Empire, but no matter what

, this disparity can already be reduced a lot, and most people in the Southern Empire can know that the Cao Family Trading Company is also strengthening its own. Of course, the Cao Family Trading Company has also launched a redemption policy, and these are those prisoners of war.

, you can all use money to buy them back. If they are ordinary soldiers from the past, they naturally cannot be sold. The Southern Empire will not buy them back, and the Cao Family Trading Company will not sell them.

, there is a reason for this, but these people are different. These people are all from rich families and can sell money.

For ordinary soldiers, when they are defeated, they no longer have ordinary identities. They can only obey the orders from above and become slaves. The court here will not pay them any money. Besides,

Even if they are willing to pay for it, the Cao Family Trading Company will not sell it back, because when they go back, they may put on military uniforms or something and become combat effective immediately. This is absolutely not allowed for the people of the Cao Family Trading Company.

, and for people of this era, prisoners of war are of no use at all. Those who died on the battlefield can receive the best treatment, but those who surrendered have no one to care about them. The Cao family

The trading company spent money to buy those people back after every war, but people from the four empires felt that the people in the Cao Family Trading Company had a brain problem. How could they do such a thing? Could it be because of their brains?

Are they rusty? These people all have some feelings of failure. What role can they play? Of course, this is what Li Cong said. No one can understand things on the battlefield better than prisoners of war. They are temporarily

They can't continue to go to the battlefield. So they can go to the military academy. In the school, they can teach the recruits everything they know. They are the most competent officers, and Li Cong often gives them

The subordinates said that the most important thing is to be alive on the battlefield. Everything else is just a cloud. It's bullshit to kill one's life. Everyone is dead. What's the use of victory? It's a defeat, but as long as a person is or

, you can also make up for it later.

But the people of the Royal Guards Cavalry Corps are completely different. Even if the Southern Empire Court does not come up with the money, their families will definitely come up with the money. Of course, there will be many of them.

As the eldest son, these people had the right to inherit in the past. Now that something has happened and they have become prisoners of war, they will naturally have no right to inherit after returning. However, the people of the Cao Family Trading Company will definitely not let them just like that.

If they are depressed, there will definitely be some way for them to regain control of the family. Even if they cannot become the heirs, they can still create a huge wave in their family. By then, everything will be over. Nan

Of course, the empire cannot see Li Cong's sinister intentions. These families will definitely buy back their own people for their own face. Of course, they don't buy them back and use them as good people, just to gain face.

That’s it, and what the Cao Family Trading Company didn’t expect was that they all started bidding one by one. Why did your young master bid 700,000 taels of silver? How come this one in mine only cost 500,000 taels of silver? This

What does it mean? Do you people in the Cao family business look down on the people in our family? Why do you let the people in our family be cheaper than the people in his family? Does it feel that we are inferior to their family? The young master in our family is not as good as their family

The young master? Such things made them almost fight each other. Of course, Li Cong didn't know about these things. These are all things later.

Such things as redemption have not happened before, but they did not redeem them like this when they redeemed them. Generally speaking, for example, if there is a war between the Southern Empire and the Northern Empire, all the prisoners of war from the Northern Empire will have to be

He was brought to the Southern Empire and sold, and the price was the price of a slave. It could not be much more expensive. The current redemption surprised everyone in the Southern Empire. Everyone knew about the Cao Family Trading Company.

People can make money, but they never expected that they would make as much as they do now. Each of them clearly marked the price for each person. These young masters used to often buy and sell people in the slave market. They never

None of them thought that one day they would become the target of being bought and sold. Some of them were not even willing to go back to their homes, because they knew that if they went back, they would not have the same life as before.

You know what it is like to be a person abandoned by your family. Even if you live in a family, your life will be different from the past. Many people may not be able to stand the oppression and become different from normal people.

Because they are very aware of this, some of them don't want to go back, but now there is no other way. They often make passive choices. Just like now, this matter is not up to them to decide. Stay

That's impossible, because you are a man of shining gold, and you can sell it for at least 50,000 taels of silver. You have captured more than a million people and hundreds of billions of silver. Isn't this money profitable?

Just like a young master from the Earl's Mansion, it is his lifelong wish to go to the battlefield, which is different from those at home. There are not so many intrigues in his mind, and the affairs of these people make him look very uncomfortable.

Comfortable, although he is the eldest son, he is a person with a low status in the family, but because he has the support of his father, as long as his father is still there, his status will not change in any way.

.His father will also consider things for him, that is, let him have a good experience on the front line. After returning with this resume, he will succeed the title of earl. Who knows that such a thing has happened now, and he and the big brother

Most people are the same. What he thought in his heart was that he would be better off dead. At that time, he still remembered the situation. Many people didn't know what to do. There were airships everywhere in the sky.

The thing on the ground was surprising. It could kill dozens of people in one minute. That kind of thing killed his own war horse directly, and then he had no war horse. He could only follow everyone.

They all ran away together. The cavalry all knew that as long as they lost their horses, their fate would not be very good. The result was exactly as he imagined. They were all driven into a large flat field.

Here, tens of thousands of troops from the Cao family trading company around him captured people like himself and used them as prisoners? This was the most shameful thing for him, but he had no other way, even if he wanted to die.

Impossible thing.

After he was defeated, he went to the military camp of the Cao Family Trading Company. There he saw many things that he had never seen before. Of course, they would not get those powerful weapons. The work they did every day was

Strengthening the external fortifications, but other than that, there is nothing else. The food is still very good. Not to mention that he is the son of an earl, even if he is the young master of a duke's family, it is nothing. They all have to eat honestly.

It's a little better than soldiers, but it's different here. There is no noodles at all. What they eat are white flour steamed buns. The fine clothes and fine food in the capital seem to be too far away from me.

Eating this food and pickles also feels delicious. Compared with those who are already dead, my life is already very good. At least my head is still on my head, right? But

Their food is still not enough compared to the people in the Cao Family Trading Company. The people in the Cao Family Trading Company only eat meat buns and even meat soup. I heard that they have stipulated that everyone must have half a meal every day.

Eat a pound of meat, and you must finish it, otherwise your physical strength will not be able to keep up. It is said that these things are purchased from the occupied areas of the Southern Empire. Many merchants in the Southern Empire specially provide them to the troops of the Cao Family Trading Company.

Those who sent pork had all forgotten that this army was at war with the Southern Empire. In their view, it seemed that they had accepted the rule of the Cao Family Trading Company. They had forgotten that they were members of the Southern Empire.

People.

These are nothing, the most important thing is the redemption policy created by the Cao Family Trading Company, which makes me feel like an animal. I have been to the slave market in the capital many times, and I didn’t expect that I would be able to do it.

Isn't it surprising to become a person like those slaves? He had thought about this before, but he felt that it was because his family had lost its power and was made like that by His Majesty the Emperor. Absolutely

He didn't expect that it would be the people from the Cao Family Trading Company who made him what he is now, which made him feel so embarrassed. He saw that several people around him were the same as him, and they must have the same thoughts as him. They

He would not believe that one day people like him would become slaves. He would never dream of such a thing. But now it is a fact. He is priced at 1.5 million taels of silver. This money is nothing to him, that is, one year.

It was just his pocket money. In fact, he felt uncomfortable in his heart. Was he worth that little money? He saw the old housekeeper at home. The old housekeeper was his father's confidant. His father must have asked him to come here this time.

His mother passed away early, and his father had always taken care of him. It seemed that his family must have known that he had lost the war, and he would not have a good life after he returned. However, he thought about the day when he would find his Cao Cao.

As an officer in a commercial bank, the words of that person are still in my mind. Should I contact that person before leaving? It will definitely be difficult for me to go back by myself. If I can cooperate with that person, maybe everything will be okay.

With the situation in front of us, the power of these people combined is not small.

One day, as soon as he finished his work, an officer from the Cao Family Trading Company came and said the following to him: "You know you people won't have a good life even if you go back. Your family members

, your friends, even your wives and children will not treat you the same as before. Do you know why? It is because you have become a prisoner. In this society, prisoners have no status.

Do you still want the kind of life you had before? If you do, our people at Cao's Commercial Bank will help you. People here are in the same situation as you, and their lives will definitely be difficult after they go back.

I don’t know if you have thought about it. If you all unite, you will become a big force. What we do is to give you a platform. You can unite through us. Two useless people are nothing.

Yes, but what about twenty? Who will bully you? You can help one person gain status first, and in exchange he will help you later. In this way, there is at least half a chance that you will be in the same position as you are now.

It’s almost the same. Besides, our Cao Family Trading Firm will still have our people on your territory. If we want to do something, there will be no problem. We can do it by helping you. I don’t know if you have this idea.
