Three full days had passed since the day of the sacrifice, and the intensity of the rebels' assault seemed to be much less than before, and Cui Guangyuan would rush to the location of the Chinese army almost every morning and evening to meet Qin Jin, each time to ask if the messenger sent to Hedong had replied. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

In fact, Qin Jin is more anxious than Cui Guangyuan, if Hedong Province does not get news for a long time, maybe while waiting, he will miss the best opportunity to completely annihilate the rebels. However, Cui Guangyuan is more worried that the rebels eat people every day, and once it drags on for a long time, it may eat up millions of people in Guanzhong.

In this regard, Qin Jin felt that Cui Guangyuan was a little worried, first of all, the people in Guanzhong were also people, not fish without legs, and they could choose to flee for their lives after being threatened. Moreover, the rebels are not all butchers who exterminate humanity, and he believes that a considerable number of people have a resistance to cannibalism, and only have to do it in order to survive. However, if this unfavorable mood accumulates over a long period of time, it may cause all kinds of unexpected disasters like a volcanic eruption.

What Qin Jin was waiting for was the explosion of this kind of negative emotions that had accumulated to a certain extent.

"Da Yin is not anxious, most of the people in Chang'an City are private or united soldiers who have just formed an army, in the current situation, self-protection may be no problem, but to go out of the city and do a field duel with the rebels who mourn the soldiers, even I am not sure of victory. If you win, everyone will be happy, but what if you lose?"

"Defeated, defeated, it's a big deal to retreat to the city, continue to stay on the defensive, it's better than doing nothing!"

Qin Jin shook his head secretly, Cui Guangyuan had a good heart, but he was a soldier who didn't know how to fight. In the era of cold weapons, the decisive factor is often not the quality of the armor or the number of soldiers, but there is a point that determines the fate of the opposing sides all the time. That is morale, countless examples of the weak defeating the strong, the root of which is not only in the tricks, but from the self-confidence and morale of the soldiers.

If you lead a group of cowardly and fearful people, even if Bai Qi Sun Wu is alive, I am afraid that it will be difficult for a good woman to cook without rice.

A group of people, to develop self-confidence, to maintain morale, is a gradual accumulation of process, Chang'an City unity soldiers and civilians after dozens of battles to defend the city, has basically overcome the initial fear of the rebels, and many times still hold a lot of psychological advantages.

If you take the risk of attacking, once you are defeated, you will be defeated by the rebels who have been starved of military rations and even have to feed their hunger with human flesh, and the confidence and morale that have been accumulated before may instantly collapse into invisibility. Of course, the conservatism of Qin and Jin is fundamentally rooted in the fact that Chang'an was the spiritual lifeblood of the Tang Dynasty and could not be lost. If he had abandoned this shackle, he would not have cared about the gains and losses of one city and one place, killing and injuring the rebels, and protracted combat was the fundamental goal.

However, the reality is like this, he can only choose to be cautious, and before the Shenwu army is transferred from Hedong, Chang'an must not be put in danger.

It's just that Qin Jin doesn't want to talk more about these ideas with Cui Guangyuan, and if he talks too much, those of them who don't know soldiers will also think that they are all excuses made to avoid the war.

Fortunately, Cui Guangyuan has the same opinion as Qin Jin most of the time, and has few objections to him, but this time he is a little stubborn and outrageous.

After getting Qin Jin's clear refusal again, Cui Guangyuan's eyes turned red in a hurry, and he almost burst into tears.

Qin Jin was surprised and asked him why he had come here.

Cui Guangyuan smiled bitterly in return.

"The subordinate is Jing Zhaoyin, and he can't let the people under his rule live and work in peace and contentment, but he has to suffer such heinous torture, he can't sleep every day, and the meals are difficult to swallow......"

After saying this, Qin Jin also secretly sighed, Cui Guangyuan is a person with a temperament, and his inner sense of mission is also the same as many famous ministers in the world, and he does not have to be driven by selfishness and interests, which is really awe-inspiring.

In the past, the Tang Dynasty officials that Qin Jin saw with his eyes, including the Son of Heaven, regardless of rank and rank, high or low, were all flies and dogs, selfish and selfish, which made him feel desperate for the Tang Dynasty in his impression, until he entered Chang'an in adversity this time, and came into contact with Cui Guangyuan and Guo Ziyi, two people with completely different personalities, that he felt that there was still hope for the Tang Dynasty.

Qin Jin has never been so confident that he can turn the tide and restore the prosperity and military prestige of the Tang Dynasty by himself, he can only act as a guide at best, and the specific actions must be done by capable ministers and officials themselves. If the people who occupy the center of the Tang Dynasty are people like Li Linfu and Yang Guozhong, there is really no hope, maybe the Tang Dynasty in this life will be worse than the fall in historical records.

If the Son of Heaven does not lose his morality, how can the world be in chaos? If the Prime Minister does not seek personal gain, how can the Son of Heaven not know the reason? Isn't Da Yin clear about the reason for this? We are now just masons who worked hard to repair the building after it collapsed. If you repair well, you will naturally be happy. If you can't repair it, you can only blame the number of days, what does it have to do with manpower?"

As the saying goes, do your best and obey the destiny of heaven. Qin Jin did not persuade Cui Guangyuan to be impatient from the specific analysis of specific matters, and only started from the mandate of heaven, which seemed to avoid reality and hypocrisy, but the people in the world just ate this set.

Cui Guangyuan wiped his tears with his sleeve and choked up:

"How can the subordinates not know? It's all because they are unwilling! How can a good prosperous world fall to such a state?"

Qin Jin saw that his persuasion had an effect, so he said gently:

"Da Yin also has to adjust his mentality, positive and optimistic in the face of the current situation, how many officials are looking at you and me, if you can't set an example to calm people's hearts, wouldn't it be a bad thing? No matter what, the situation is always getting better step by step, the rebels cannibalism is not a long-term solution, Qin dares to assert that within seven days, as long as Chang'an is solid, the rebels will inevitably change!"

Although Qin Jin's words were mild, they were also euphemistically pointing out that Cui Guangyuan's sad and sad expression all day long would have a negative impact on all middle and lower-level officials, which was contrary to his original intention. After realizing this, Cui Guangyuan suddenly felt ashamed, and his face turned a little red.

"The doctor blames the subordinate for losing his temper!"

However, Cui Guangyuan's face soon appeared with excitement again.

"What the doctor just said is that there will be changes within the rebels?

Qin Jin secretly smiled bitterly, without specific data for analysis, how could there be an accurate probability for the prediction of such a major situation?

However, he has used this trick of painting cakes to satisfy hunger many times. Once the morale of the people is low, they will conclusively cite the crisis that the rebels will break out, and the situation will be greatly improved, so that the hearts of the people will repeatedly hover on the verge of collapse and not fall into a desperate situation. Although they are all big gambles, they have always come to this day without danger.

Stretched out his hand and gestured a figure-of-eight, Cui Guangyuan's voice couldn't hold back the excitement.

"So, can we take the traitor's army without a fight?"

Qin Jin nodded.

"Almost, if the army of Hedong Dao comes, it can meet it head-on, and kill these people, naturally!"

Cui Guangyuan suddenly realized that Qin Jin's plan was to kill all the 200,000 rebels, and he couldn't help but be shocked, and only asked after a while:

"200,000 people, all killed?"

Qin Jin asked rhetorically:

"These traitors have the blood of my ** people on their hands, and if they don't kill them all, will they still be left to bring disaster to the world?"

"Isn't this too cruel......

After all, Cui Guangyuan is a traditional Chinese scholar, punishing the rebellion and killing the first evil, if these rebel soldiers can recognize the reality and surrender, they must always leave a way out. Throughout history, most of the people who commit great acts of evil will not end well, either they will not die well, or they will be left with a stench for 10,000 years.

After thinking for a while, Cui Guangyuan felt that it was necessary to persuade Qin Jin, so he asked tentatively:

"What if the rebels lay down their arms and surrender?

Behind his question, there is naturally an old saying, the so-called "killing is ominous"!

Unexpectedly, Qin Jin did not answer this question, and only smiled lightly.

"Da Yin thinks too long-term, are we still under siege at the moment? It's not too late to face these assumptions in the future!"

After being stunned for a long time, Cui Guangyuan felt that he had an answer, and Qin Jin avoided his question, didn't it confirm his worries from the side?

On the one hand, he admired Qin Jin's self-confidence in adversity, as if no matter how desperate the situation in front of him was, it was difficult to defeat this person, and this person was always desperate to survive, creating one amazing miracle after another. On the one hand, he was worried about Qin Jin's stubbornness.

At the beginning, everyone said that Chang'an couldn't hold it, and returning to Chang'an to stick to it was to die by himself. The people who stay are nothing more than have two mentalities, one is willing not to leave, and is willing to die. The other is that you want to go but can't go, or you can't do it.

The sound of footsteps came, and a team of neat and uniform united soldiers slowly passed from the four horse streets, and it was with this sound of hocs all the time, the public security in Chang'an City did not collapse, and it was even better than when Tongguan was not broken.

Cui Guangyuan sighed for a while, and his mind returned to the problem he had thought about before.

In fact, many people chose to stay at the beginning, not because they couldn't go or didn't succeed, but because they simply wanted to surrender to the Anshi rebels after the city was broken, in order to have a foothold in the new dynasty.

Many people know this, but they don't say it clearly.

Cui Guangyuan believed that Qin Jin must also be able to see what he could see, but with his jealousy and hatred, and rarely compromised, he was able to say nothing about it, so that people's hearts could settle down in a relatively short period of time. Isn't that a sign of having the big picture in mind?

With such an idea, Cui Guangyuan looked back at Qin Jin's idea of killing all 200,000 traitors, and felt that there should be something in it that he couldn't see clearly.
