Chapter 237 Han Xin on the Rebels
Han Xin continued: "Secondly, they hate the Qin Dynasty to the core. At the end of the day, they will have an idea, how much harm they can cause to the Qin Dynasty, then they will cause , even if the means used are the same It will hurt them."
"The rebels have this idea now. Although this was their land and the people here were their subjects, it is no longer the case and will not be in the future. , so they're thinking 'I can't get Even if they are destroyed, they cannot be obtained by others."
"Even if they are eventually destroyed by the Qin Dynasty, it will take several years or even decades to recover."
"The third is them He did not regard the people here as his own, and may even regard the people here as traitors! This place originally belonged to the Yue State, but later it was destroyed by the Yue State. The land was annexed by Chu, and the people here became the Chu Land. Naturally, he became a Chu man.”
"But the rebels regard the people here as Chu people? I'm afraid that may not be the case. The land is far and near, and the people are close and close. The rebels may regard the people here as Yue people, not Chu people!"
" And now our great Qin government is clear and effective, benefiting the world, no matter Yan, Qi or Chu. Or Han, Wei, and Zhao all regard it equally. The Yue people here also feel the kindness of Qin. However, in the eyes of the rebels, this is a betrayal: Qin and Chu have the hatred of imprisoning the king and the hatred of destroying the country. You and others How dare you trust Qin and forget Chu?”
Han Xin thought of what Li Nian said again. , said: "Master Li once said that 'heresies are more hateful than heretics', 'heresies' are 'those who have different aspirations among their own people and are often regarded as traitors', and 'heretics' are 'enemies'."
"Although the Yue people here once returned to Chu, they are not Chu. Now I see them If you don’t listen to their orders and instead turn to the Qin Dynasty, you will be regarded as a heretic by the rebels, and you will be even more hated!”
Indeed, you may be a little tolerant of your enemies to show your generosity, but if He is a traitor among his own people, but he often brutally purges and suppresses them.
"The fourth reason is that they are not stupid. I believe that they dare to do such a thing because they think that even if they are criticized by people all over the world in the future, they can also argue that they harmed the Yue people with different intentions and did not harm the Chu people."
"The above is what Xin is thinking!"
After Han Xin finished speaking, Wang Ben nodded and said: "What you said is good, but you also ignored two points."
Although I felt that I future He will not be inferior to this senior brother, but he is definitely far inferior now. Han Xin was very respectful to Wang Bi and asked for advice: "Please give me some advice, general!"
Wang Bi said calmly: "First of all, what I am thinking is Thinking about it as a prince, not to mention that the people here have the status of Yue people, even if they are the purest Chu people, they will not have much scruples, they are just ordinary people, and they will die!"
"Second, they are indeed not too stupid. The reason why they chose to start the uprising in Qiantang is because Qiantang has access to the sea and is their escape route."
After hearing this, a general asked in confusion Said: "But the young general just said that the rebels are at the end of the road. How can we use them?" This strategy, if they have a way out, why do they leave no room for themselves? "
Wang Ben explained: "Everyone's thoughts are different. What I think at this moment is different from what you all think? Can it be the same? It’s definitely different, and so are the rebels!”
“Some of the rebels no longer care about life or death, but there are also some who still want to live. However, they all have a common goal: to hate Da Qin!”
“These people who don’t care about life or death even I don’t care whether I live or die, so what? Do you care about anything else? Of course, as Han Xin said, do whatever you can to harm Da Qin. "Although those people who still want to live hate Da Qin, they don't want to die yet, so they already thought about it when they started the uprising. If things go wrong, where will we retreat?”
"Is there any place for them to stay in Da Qin today? Unless they remain anonymous for a lifetime and never mention the prominence of their ancestors, it will be extremely difficult. Therefore, they will not continue to stay in Da Qin, but will only flee overseas. Maybe they have not returned to the land of Da Qin. They also know that it will be difficult to return after this escape!"
"Since it is difficult to return to this land! If everything in the world has nothing to do with them, then why should we worry about it? How about causing trouble before escaping?"
After hearing what Wang Ben said, the generals nodded, understood, and fled! I don't want to be a helper in the future. Anyway, the people and things here have nothing to do with me. I don't feel bad about any misfortune. I don't feel bad about selling my land, not to mention it's not my land.
Wang Ben asked Han Xin again: "Now that we know why the rebels did what they did, is there any solution?"
Han Xin said: "Those who use this method are just trying to use the people of this place as hostages to make us jealous, and their intentions are very sinister. I believe that we must not fall into a trap according to their ideas, otherwise it will only encourage them." The arrogance makes others think that we can be bullied. Not only will they not be able to suppress the rebellion and save the people here, but they will also harm the people here. "
Many generals in the camp nodded and agreed to the unreasonable demands of the rebels. Not only would the rebels not surrender and treat the locals under their control well, but they would also feel that their strategy of "using the people as a shield" Very good, and then go even harder to demand more from Da Qin, and control the local people in their hands even more tightly.
"Xin believes that this matter should be dealt with quickly and should not be delayed for too long. Xin has two strategies: one is to attack directly with a large army and rely on the difference in strength between us and others to destroy it; the other is to How many soldiers are there in the rebel army? I have heard a lot about it, but how many of them are really willing to follow them in their rebellion? "
"It's just because their relatives are controlled by the rebels? He was forced to rebel because of his hand. The only ones who are really willing to be rebels are his disciples and former subordinates, but how many of them can there be?"
Han Xin analyzed the strength of the rebels seriously, "He Shou them. The soldiers who were coerced by others are not even equal to one in ten. Moreover, the soldiers who were coerced by others and rebelled must have resentment in their hearts, just because their relatives were still in their hands and they did not dare to act rashly."
"If we tell these soldiers, even if the rebels win, they will not let go of their relatives, but will only control them deeper. Rather than letting their relatives be controlled by others for a long time, it is better to 'suffer long-term pain than short-term pain', and raise the knife to them If the soldiers are cut off, they may have more vitality. Once the soldiers rebel, they will have the advantage of numbers. , we will win!”
It is indeed feasible to incite people who are coerced by the rebels and let them rise up to resist. The reason why those people dare not resist is mainly because their relatives are controlled and they see the real rebellion. The army had better weapons and equipment, and felt that they could not defeat them.
In fact, with their numerical advantage, even if they cut trees into soldiers, they can defeat the real rebels, but people will die in the process, themselves and their relatives.
How can we save our loved ones if we don’t resist?
Xiao Hanxin continued: "Two strategies can be carried out in parallel. There is no need to choose. If Xin is left to decide, I would like to use a strategy that attacks the heart rather than a direct attack."
Wang Ben was very satisfied with the speech of his junior brother and said: "If Han Xin's plan is successful, there will be no need to fight the rebels, the rebels will perish themselves!"
