"Zhongye, tell me about the situation of the water bandits on the Yangtze River."

After sending Wei Yan away, Lin Xu summoned Wen Ping into the carriage and began to inquire about the situation of the Yangtze River.

"Your Excellency"

Wen Ping was neither humble nor arrogant

"Now the bandits on the Yangtze River have weakened a lot, since His Majesty issued an amnesty at the beginning of the year, most of the bandits have chosen to abandon the sword and follow the good, and now there are still four river bandit forces that are still stubbornly resisting."

"Jiang Qin and Zhou Tai of the Jiujiang Department, Jiangxia Pan Ru, and the newly appeared young Jiang bandit Jinfan thief Gan Ning, these four bandits are the most vicious."

"Hmm"

Lin Xu bowed slightly, these people were similar to what he expected,

"Are any of these people willing to surrender to the imperial court?"

"This~"

Wen Ping shook his head lightly and said

"I'm afraid it's impossible, at the beginning of the year, His Majesty granted amnesty to the world, and these people are still unwilling to surrender and obey the good, now I'm afraid~"

Why is that? But this Jingzhou official is oppressive? ”

Lin Xu was a little puzzled, to be reasonable, since Jiang Qin and Zhou Tai were willing to follow Sun Ce to achieve a career in history, now there are Han orthodox recruits, there is no reason for these people to let serious officers and soldiers not do it and continue to be thieves.

"Adults don't know"

Wen Ping's face was slightly gloomy

"Now there are still thieves who are mostly burdened with human lives, or ~, or offended the powerful people of the Jingzhou family, even if they are good, I am afraid that it is also a rare good fruit, this is one of them, the two, now my Han is prosperous and stable, the pedestrians in the Yangtze River who take the waterway, the merchants are endless, these river bandits only need to rob once, enough to squander half a load! In this case, how can those who are wicked abandon the thief and follow the good? ”

"I see, didn't the officials in Jingzhou send troops to clean it up?"

"Nature is there"

As he spoke, Wen Ping obviously showed a look of disdain

"Those so-called Jingzhou generals, except for one Huang Zu, still have some skills, and the others are all wine bags and rice bags!"

Speaking of Wenpin, he seems to be very excited, thinking that he Wenpin's talent is not allowed to be displayed, but he has to obey the ridiculous and childish dispatch of those mediocre generals, which has led to several times of sending troops to hang bandits, all of which have returned in vain, not to mention, H also shifted the responsibility for the defeat to these generals, blaming them for not fighting well and not daring to die, which is simply unbearable!

"Zhongye does not need to be resentful"

Looking at Wen Ping, whose eyes were about to burst into flames, Lin Xu had no choice but to comfort him softly

"I promise you that you will never be subjected to such a nest of birds again in the future! I will also provide you with a big enough stage for you to display your talents to the fullest! ”

"Thank you!"

Wen Ping's mood calmed down a little after hearing this, and he bowed respectfully to Lin Xu and continued

"On the other hand, those Jiang bandits, but their ability is not weak, that Jiang Qin has a good command of the army, Zhou Tai is brave in battle, Pan Ru is fierce and ruthless, Gan Ning is cunning and cunning, although there are not many soldiers and horses in his hands, but the water war has always been a soldier in the fine but not in the many, those people are all fierce and not afraid of death, when the army is surrounded and suppressed, they will avoid attacking, and when a small group comes to attack, they will divide and eat, which is very difficult."

Lin Xu's face slowly sank after hearing this, these guys are all talents, but unfortunately they are not very easy to recruit, if they want to commit themselves to Jingzhou, these mediocre officials are ordered to be pawns, according to what Wen Ping said, it is simply impossible, after all, you can't beat others, and your ability is not as high as anyone's, why do you want others to obey your orders?

"Except for Huang Zu in Jingzhou, there are no other generals who know how to fight in the water? I remember that Cai Mao and Zhang Yun should know the law of the water army. ”

Lin Xu touched his chin, he remembered very well that Jiang Gan's pit in the official history was not used by Zhou Yu, and Cao Cao accidentally slaughtered these two people, and the person who could make Zhou Yu jealous of killing should have some talent.

"What Li Hou said is not false"

Wen Ping smiled lightly after hearing this

"Cai Mao and Zhang Yun do understand the water master, but they only know the method of training, if it is about the art of water warfare~~"

The corners of Wen Ping's mouth twitched slightly, Lin Xu immediately understood, and then there was a sudden thought, indeed, it seems that these two goods and Huang Gai did it once, and they also fought with Cheng Pu, and they all returned defeated, thinking about it, this water war ability is really not very good, Chibi will Cao Cao just let these two help train the water army, so they should be very good at training the water army, and they should also understand the water war, but the level is not very good.

"In that case, what is Zhongye's plan to take down these bandits?"

Looking at the situation of Wen Ping, I have a very deep understanding of these Jiang Biao Huchen, maybe this guy has been secretly preparing some killing tricks to deal with them a long time ago, but he is just suffering from the fact that he has no rights and cannot implement them.

Wen Ping's eyes narrowed after hearing Lin Xu's inquiry, in his opinion, this is the school that this immortal has examined him, but this topic is a little difficult, those dogs are like snakes in the water, yin and poisonous, even if they are holding a sharp sword, it is difficult to kill them.

"In the next stupidity, the only way to do this is to suppress it with a large army, invade and eat step by step, and completely sweep the entire Yangtze River waters!"

Lin Xu shook his head slightly after hearing this, this method is too stupid, it requires too much manpower and material resources, not to mention the loss of labor and money, and it seems that their government is incompetent, even if he can finally clean up the big and small water bandits in the Yangtze River, but the purpose of his coming this time is not to kill those tiger ministers, but to subdue them and use them for his use. What about picking up corpses?

"Don't worry, let me think about it first, although your method is useful, it is too rough."

Wen Ping nodded after hearing this, and did not feel any disappointment, and said with a touch of conscience, his method is indeed a little rough, it is not a method, and it is reasonable not to be adopted by Lin Xu.

"Alas, these people are predatory and unruly, otherwise, if they can become the sailor general of my Han Dynasty, what lake bandits and river bandits will there be in this world?"

Wen Ping sighed softly, he sincerely appreciated the talents of those people, to be fair, when it came to water warfare, he might not be able to defeat them by himself with the same force.

"Wait, what did you just say?"

Lin Xu suddenly had a flash of inspiration, and there seemed to be a very subtle plan in his mind that flashed away.

"Well, a certain family said that these people's talents~"

"No, no, no, it's not this, the previous sentence, not a word is wrong, repeat"

"Looting? Predatory? ”

Wen Ping asked tentatively

"That's right! That's it, looting, looting! Hahaha"

Lin Xu suddenly raised his head and laughed, scaring Wen Ping on the side into a daze.

"There's a way! There's a way! Isn't it just looting? I'll let him rob him enough! And it's an officially recognized plunder, and it's been robbed a lot, and there is a reward for this immortal! ”

When I first heard Wen Ping say the word plunder, combined with his ultimate purpose in Jingzhou this time: to plunder and occupy the Japanese slave country, and then I remembered the British foreign colonial wars in the 16th and 18th centuries.

With the strong military support of his own country as a backer, he frantically robbed other weak countries, the British in the region can do this, it seems that my Han can do the same now, although his own seagoing shipbuilding technology is not well developed enough, but with him, the immortal, he can't make a battleship, can't even build the kind of treasure ship that Zheng He went to the West?

Regarding the shipbuilding-related dense water tank, balance warehouse, keel setting connected to the end and end, the head and tail side, etc., he still understands this basic common sense, even if due to the limited level, he Lin Xu does not want to sail around the world, as long as he can reach the Wanu country in the east, and he can kill the territory of Guishan in the south.

As for the first batch of people who went to sea to plunder the Japanese slave country, there is no need to choose, Jiang Qin, Zhou Tai, and Gan Ning decided that it was you! This immortal will issue you a plunder license from the Han Dynasty, and while receiving the strong military support and protection of the Han Dynasty, you can also provide advanced navigation ships for free, and even some high-quality equipment and weapons, what bed crossbows, crossbows, battle armor and other prohibited equipment can also be provided for free A certain amount, of course, if you want to get any resources after gaining a firm foothold, you have to spend money to buy them.

Of course, let these people who eat in the Yangtze River suddenly run into the sea to toss, of course, the danger is very high, but the lives of criminals are not worth much, if they die, they can even find some more criminals to throw to Jiang Qin and them, as for whether these Jiangbiao Huchen will be unlucky to accidentally feed the sharks, then there is no way, the general will inevitably die in battle, and your navy wants to make war achievements safe and sound? Besides, he is also a famous general who has undergone historical verification, so it should not be so easy to capsize.

"Your Excellency, what are you?"

Looking at Lin Xu pondering for a while, smiling for a while, and hesitating for a while, Wen Ping's whole person felt bad, what kind of moth did the big guy in front of him want to do, and then think about what he said before, this Immortal Lord wouldn't want to join Jiang Qin and them and experience the fun of robbery, but he knew that some powerful people had a perverted hobby of taking pleasure in bringing disaster to the people.

"It's okay, don't worry, Ben Hou has already thought of a very suitable way to deal with these Jiang bandits, well, when the time comes, Zhongye will serve as their leader first. Thinking about Zhongye's ability and the support of Ben Hou, it should not be a big problem to suppress those bandits. ”

Wen Ping breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this, since he was going to let him control those Jiang bandits, he didn't think he would do anything to break the law and bring disaster to the country and the people.

"So, I am willing to wait for the dispatch."
