Chapter 425 Freedom can never be killed! Have I become the founder of thieves?
October 15th, the twelfth year of the Qin Dynasty.
Echeng County Magistrate's Office.
Yao Jia sat opposite Ying Chengyu and said apologetically: "The current situation can no longer be broken by lobbying."
"There is no good strategy in the court for Chang'an Lord to refer to."
"The king means that Lord Chang'an can do whatever he wants!"
What Da Qin should and can do has been done.
Chu State does not have the best sixth man like Guo Kai, and it is not easy for the King of Chu to bear the cud.
With the efforts of King Chu of Chu, the gaps between the kings of Chu and the powerful, and between the powerful and the powerful were temporarily bridged.
So after discussing for a day and night, the monarchs and ministers of Great Qin could only come to a regrettable conclusion.
They really have no choice or ability to provide more help to Ying Chengyu!
Ying Chengyu said sincerely: "The ministers in the DPRK have worked hard day and night for our great Qin."
"Although all my colleagues have tried their best, I still ask my colleagues to come up with something What a brilliant plan, isn’t this a difficult thing to do?”
“The rest is the responsibility of us generals!”
Yao Jia stood up and raised his hands, saying seriously: “Since Chang’an Lord has invited me to come forward, Coming here, I think it will be useful to me.”
"The king ordered me to obey the orders of Lord Chang'an in this battle. I can carry out Lord Chang'an's orders first and then report them later!"
"If Lord Chang'an has any need, please don't hesitate to give me your orders!"
Ying Chengxuan was a feudal lord and the commander-in-chief, but Yao Jia was also a minister.
Although there is a huge gap between the two in terms of origin, real power, etc., in terms of rank alone, the two are completely different.
Although Yao Jia is willing to assist now, Ying Chengyu cannot accept it calmly. He immediately stood up and returned the courtesy: "Yao Shangqing is so polite!"
"I am very lucky to have Yao Shangqing's help in this battle!"
Yao Jia couldn't help but smile.
But soon, Yao Jia couldn’t laugh anymore.
Just because Ying Chengyu asked: "Since the king has allowed Yao Shangqing to play first and then play later, I wonder if Yao Shangqing can play after I give my permission?"
Yao Jia's smile slowly faded: " Chang'an Jun, what do you mean? ”
Ying Chengxuan said solemnly: "To keep it secret!"
Yao Jia frowned slightly: "Chang'an Jun thinks someone in the court will leak the secret?"
Ying Chengxuan nodded naturally: "Isn't it Yao Shangqing? Don’t you know that Xiangbang is the younger brother of the current King of Chu?”
“Or maybe you don’t know how many Chu people there are in our Great Qin Dynasty?” However, confidential matters can only be conveyed through the waiter to avoid being known to the enemy. ”
"If Yao Shangqing wants to submit a memorial, he must either go through a summons or wait until the general gives permission, so as not to miss the important event."
Ying Chengxuan looked at Yao Jia sincerely: "Yao Shangqing can also send the memorial first. I will report this to the king and wait for the king's order."
Looking at Ying Chengyu's calm eyes, Yao Jia smiled and nodded: "Since the king has ordered me to obey the orders of Lord Chang'an, I will take my own responsibility. Jing Cong.”
“I just don’t know what Lord Chang’an wants me to do.”
Although Ying Chengyu’s request does not comply with the "Qin Code", even Ying Zheng They all have great trust in Ying Chengyu, but Yao Jia is still very nervous!
And Yao Jia really didn't think that Ying Chengyu could use his diplomatic talent to make a move to subvert the unification.
Ying Chengyu turned around and sat down, and said softly: "I will need Yao Shangqing to go deep into the Chu land to find the boy servants, mountain bandits and water bandits."
Yao Jia lost the ability to control his expression. Ability, with deep astonishment in his eyes.
What the hell?
You ask the official who is ranked Jiuqing to put down his work and come all the way to Hubei City.
As a result, I was asked to find the slave army, thieves and bandits?
Do you think this is consistent with my status?
Yao Jia couldn't help but ask: "Boy servants and thieves?"
Ying Chengyu nodded and said: "Yes!"
"The one who has been waiting will be the general. A list of boy servants and thieves available for contact was compiled. ”
"I will need Yao Shangqing to order his men to go deep into Chu territory and get in touch with these boy servants and bandits."
"And bribe them with a lot of money and ask them to attack Xiangcheng and other common people's towns!"
Yao Jia frowned: "The boy servants and bandits were already scattered, and they just experienced an encirclement and suppression last year."
"Chang'an Jun thought that those boy servants and bandits really had something to do with them. Ability to attack people's food and towns? "
Ying Chengjian said solemnly: "The siege last year did kill a lot of boy servants and bandits."
"Of course, freedom can't be killed!"
"The Chu army's encirclement and suppression campaign last year did not cause a fundamental blow to the boy servants and bandits in Chu. Instead, it intensified the boy servants and bandits' opposition to the imperial court. dissatisfied, and cut off the secret connections between some dignitaries and the boy servants and bandits. "
"From a strength perspective, the Chu bandits and boy servants are capable of completing the mission of our Da Qin. "
"From an emotional point of view, the Chu bandits and boy servants will also be happy to complete this task for our Daqin."
Suppressing bandits has always been a dangerous and troublesome thing. thing.
Because the root of thieves has never been that piece of land, but a group of lawless people!
People can run!
When the limelight is not right, these people will instantly turn into honest farmers and sneak into the fields, or they will run away and escape.
As long as a group of thieves escape, these thieves will force more people to become thieves because of their violence and confusion!
Even after the comprehensive suppression of bandits, new bandits will appear within a few years, let alone Chu State's half-finished suppression of bandits last year.
According to Zhuang Jia's news, the Chu State's bandit suppression campaign last year indeed killed nearly 30% of the bandits.
But as the saying goes, banditry is like a comb, and soldiers are like a grate.
The army caused even greater damage to the head of Guizhou than the bandits. As a result, after the bandit suppression operation, the number of bandits in Chu State quickly increased by nearly 50%, causing the number of bandits in Chu State to increase instead of decreasing!
It can fully meet Ying Chengyu's requirements.
Yao Jia's frown deepened: "If the water bandits in Daze, such as Yunmengze and Penglize, are not severely damaged, they may indeed pose a threat to the people's livelihood."
"However, most of them Most of the people's food towns are far away from the Daze bandits' dens, and they maintain inextricable relationships with the surrounding bandits."
"I want to use the hands of child servants and bandits to control these people's food towns. To cause an impact, I am afraid that we can only mobilize multiple groups of bandits from a distance and attack together."
"But bandits are bandits after all. How can they march on a large scale in Chu State?"
Ying Cheng asked with a smile: "Why not?"
Yao Jia subconsciously wanted to ask: Is this still necessary?
Thieves and bandits cannot be seen in the light. If they move in on a large scale, they will be discovered by the Chu army!
But when the words came to his lips, Yao Jia swallowed them back.
Yao Jia looked at Ying Chengxi, and although he asked, he said firmly: "The Lord of Chang'an wants these thieves to be seen by the Chu army?!"
Ying Chengxi smiled. And nodded: "Not bad."
"I don't expect these boy servants and thieves to burn and kill many people's food towns."
"As long as a few people's food towns are burned and killed, and a large number of boy servants and bandits can The thieves are flocking to other nobles' restaurants. "
"What does Yao Shangqing think these nobles will think?"
"When the boy servants in the common people's restaurants come into contact with the boy servants, they will know. What kind of life are the boy servants living now, and what should the boy servants think?"
Yao Jia finally caught up with Ying Chengyu's thoughts, and his voice became a little more exciting:
< br>
"First, the common people will be worried that their food towns will also become the targets of thieves, thus damaging the interests of their own clan."
"After all, in this war, all the people tried their best to send people from their clansmen to participate in the battle, so that they can protect the food towns. There are not many people in the clan. "
"Secondly, the Chu State eliminated bandits and child servants last year because many child servants obtained the Chang'an plow from Lord Chang'an."
< br>"In order to prevent more child servants from taking over the Chang'an plow, to avoid causing damage to the existing order, and to avoid longer-term damage to the interests of the people, the Chu State just sent troops to suppress the bandits."
" Nowadays, a large number of bandits and boy servants appear near the people's homes and towns, which shows that the Chu State has failed to suppress the bandits, and the long-term interests of the people may have been damaged. "
"Third, child servants from all over the country are likely to be attracted by the child servants, which will cause a large-scale flight of child servants."
"This will not only damage the interests of the people, but also cause It caused internal turmoil in Chu State!”
In the last battle, Ying Chengyu detonated the conflict between the nobles of Chu State.
In this battle, Ying Chengyu continued to intensify the conflict between the nobles of Chu and the servants.
Yao Jia could even imagine how chaotic Chu would be if he really implemented Ying Chengyu's strategy!
And quelling chaos requires strength!
Yao Jia's voice was full of excitement: "For the benefit of their own clan, the people will be inclined to withdraw their troops."
"In order to maintain the stability of Chu State, King Chu of Chu will also ask for the withdrawal of his troops. "
"In this way, the Chu State will have enough troops to quell the internal turmoil."
"Otherwise, the Chu State's turmoil will intensify until it is out of control."
Yao Jia suddenly stood up in excitement, and bowed his hands to Ying Chengyu: "Yao, please teach me!"
Ying Chengyu hurriedly helped Yao Jia up: "Yao Shangqing, please get up quickly!"
< br>"If you want to complete this policy, you need a large number of lobbyists who can negotiate with the bandits and boy servants."
"This will have to do with Yao Shangqing."
Yao Jia said loudly. And smiled: "It's really lucky for Yao to be able to implement this strategy!"
Ying Chengyu took Yao Jia to sit down again and poured a full cup of wine for Yao Jia with his own hands: "The first strategy requires Yao Shangqing's subordinates and lobbyists to do it."
"The second strategy, I'm afraid I have to trouble Yao Shangqing to take action himself."
Yao Jia was stunned: "Is there another plan?"
Da Qin Junchen didn't even think of it after spending a whole day in Xianyang City. Even a strategy.
In the end, when it comes to you, Kuku has two strategies? !
Who are the courtiers and who are the generals?
Ying Chengyu did not answer and asked instead: "Does Yao Shangqing know that your reputation has spread far and wide in Chu land?"
Yao Jia laughed at himself: "That may mean your reputation has spread far and wide."
< br>Ying Chengyu shook his head: "It's not a bad reputation, but a good reputation!"
Yao Jia's eyes shone slightly, and a trace of excitement could not help but show in his eyes.
People tend to care more about something the more they lack it.
As the son of Shijian, the great thief of Liang, and the exiled minister of Zhao, Yao Jia longs to be taken seriously, to be respected, and even more to have a good reputation!
Could it be that...
Ying Chengxuan continued: "Many child servants and thieves are spreading the name of Yao Shangqing, imitating Yao Shangqing's actions, hoping to become a hero like Yao Shangqing!"< br>
Yao Jia's face turned dark, and he gritted his teeth and asked: "Mr. Chang'an, are you saying that many thieves in Chu are imitating me and want to become me?!"
"Mr. Chang'an, do you think this is a good name?"
Having the reputation of being the 'big thief of Liang' made Yao Jia feel very uncomfortable.
As a result, without my knowledge, I have been given the title of 'Model of Thieves', and I may even be given the title of 'The Patriarch of Thieves' in the future.
You call this a good reputation? !
Ying Chengyu coughed lightly, his eyes a little erratic: "Why doesn't it count?"
