Chapter 831: Rumors Spread

On the other hand, it will be funny.

Tang Yu received an order from Zhaoju of Zhuguo on the night of the second day, secretly went out of the city to the Chu army camp outside the city, and then transferred the 20,000 Chu troops who were ready to go overnight.

At this time, on the carriage back to Huiji City, Tang Lin, a doorman, sat beside Tang Yu and hesitated: "Your Majesty, now Shangyu Zhuji has transferred 10,000 Chu troops to go, plus the 5,000 Chu troops originally stationed in the two places, a total of 15,000 people, which is enough to capture the local nobles and suppress the localities." I don't know when we'll start arresting the nobles of Huiji. โ€

Tang Mo smiled and said: "Don't be in a hurry, the army's movement is already slow, and in order to keep it secret, it is out day and night, and the action is even more sluggish, so the general estimates that it will take more than ten days for the army to arrive in Zhuji and Shangyu." Now that we are in Huiji City, we will be afraid that other places will get the news in advance, and we will take risks in fear.

Therefore, instead of acting in a hurry, it is better to take advantage of the unsettled nobles of Yuedi and sit on the ground to watch and wipe them out. โ€

Saying that, Tang Mo sneered: "They thought that if they didn't come to Huiji City, they would be fine, if they didn't come, wouldn't Ben Jiang be able to send people!" โ€

Tang Lin frowned and said: "Your Majesty, unified action can indeed capture the Yue people on the list to the greatest extent, but the minister is worried that if the preparation time is too long, will the Yue people in various places strike first, and start an incident in advance before the arrival of the army."

Especially before the news of the assassination of the king of Chu came, there were already all kinds of rumors among the Yuedi, which shows that the assassination of the king this time was expected by the Yue people. Therefore, Chen is worried that although our spies have not found any signs of rebellion by the Yue people, will the Yue people have already contacted us in advance when we don't know, and even prepared to start an incident at this time. โ€

"This..." Tang Yu was stunned, filtered the events of this time in his heart again, and then shook his head and said, "Otherwise, the assassination of the king this time is just a coincidence." The king came to Jiangdong from Yingdu without notifying Jiangdong in advance, and traveled all the way to the outside of Wucheng. Therefore, the Yue people could not know in advance that the King of Chu was patrolling Jiangdong, so it was impossible to plan the assassination of the king in advance, and without the assassination case, all the Yue people could not be frightened.

The Yue Kingdom has been destroyed for two years, and it has gradually stabilized, and without anything big, the Yue people will not be able to incite the people. Therefore, it is absolutely impossible for the Yue people to have been connected in advance. โ€

Speaking of this, Tang Yu twisted his beard again and continued: "Also, the king was assassinated, but the silver hairpin was not smeared with poison, which shows that the assassination was a temporary intention. As for the rumors from all over the place before..."

Tang Yu sneered: "It seems that the Lu brothers have already arrived in Yuedi. โ€

"Your Majesty." Tang Lin persuaded again: "The king was assassinated, he was furious, and the king was away all the year round, if the action was slow this time, the minister was worried that someone would slander in front of the king." Also, if you suddenly arrest at the appointed time, you can be surprised, but if the time is too long, I am afraid that the news will leak out, and the more people in various places will learn about it, they will inevitably take risks. โ€

When Tang Yu heard this, he remembered that Qu Yuan was slandered by the ministers before, and then built a city in Xiangyang for many years, and now he was appointed as a left disciple by the king of Chu again.

Thinking about it, he couldn't help laughing: "Even the left disciples who destroyed the whole country are not afraid, they will believe in the king, and they will never listen to any rumors." As for those Yue people..."

Tang Yu said disdainfully: "Now that I have more than 100,000 Chu troops sitting in Jiangdong, the nobles of Yue Di are already in a panic, not to mention that they are now scattered all over the place, a plate of scattered sand, it is difficult to echo, even if the Yue country is still there, they can't set off big waves." โ€

"But!" Tang Mo was stunned, and then spoke again: "The rumors of Yue Di are indeed a troublesome thing. Although rumors stop at the wise, there are still many ordinary people in the world. โ€

Tang Mo pondered for a moment, and then spoke: "Starting tomorrow, in the name of arresting the Lu brothers, the culprits who assassinated the king, martial law will be imposed in the city, and the people who enter and leave the city will be strictly investigated.

In addition, orders were issued to various localities and the people began to be listed.

Also, since there are people spreading rumors everywhere, let's also take a walk. โ€

Soon, the news of the assassination of the king of Chu soon spread throughout Yuedi under the walk of people with good intentions. Moreover, under the walk of well-intentioned people, various rumors continue to emerge in Vietnam.

"The king of Chu was assassinated in Wudi, this matter has nothing to do with the people of Yuedi, please don't believe rumors, don't spread rumors, don't spread rumors, keep stability, the king of Chu is benevolent, and he will definitely involve the innocent."

This is a public announcement issued by the local government, and officials from all over the country tried their best to publicize it to the people, hoping that the people would not be frightened and misled by people with intentions.

At first, there was some effect, but after the news came from Wucheng that the Chu army had raided the family and exterminated the clan, and the blood of the people of Jiangdong had stained Songjiang red, the people suddenly became suspicious of the official announcement.

After the credibility of the government disappeared, all kinds of rumors began to emerge and boil over the sky.

"The king of Chu led his army to Jiangdong, the purpose was nothing else, that is, to move all the people of Yuedi away and move to Dongting Pengze to reclaim the wasteland. Then move the Chu people from other places to Jiangdong and use the Chu people to control the Wu land. โ€

Destroying its country and moving its monarchs and people has been the tradition of Chu for hundreds of years, and Chu has always done so.

As soon as this news came out, it immediately resonated with the people of all parts of Yuedi, and the people of the entire Yuedi were worried about this, and they also believed that the Chu State would do this sooner or later.

Maybe the Chu State will not move all the Yue people to Dongting Pengze, but it is still possible for the Chu State to move tens of thousands of households and more than 100,000 people.

What if you are unfortunate enough to be chosen by migrating so many people?

They were unwilling to leave their hometown, let alone leave their hometown to exile sinners in Dongting, Pengze and other places to reclaim the wasteland, which was simply from the commoners of the Yue State to the commoners of the Chu State, giving up the land that had been passed down from their ancestors for generations, and then going to reclaim the land that was completely unfamiliar, which made the people of Yue very miserable.

If the rumors of migration are just disappointing and sad, then the next rumors are despairing.

"The king of Chu was angry, and the Yue people did not belong to him, so he decided to change the customs, abandon all the traditions of the Yue country, and change to the customs of the Chu country."

"The king of Chu was furious, and the Yue people missed the Yue country, and decided to dig up all the ancestral graves of the Yue people and destroy all the relics of the Yue people."

"The king of Chu was furious, thinking that the nobles of the Yue Kingdom did not want to belong to the Chu State, so he decided to demote all the original Yue nobles to concubines and confiscate the property of all the nobles of the Yue Kingdom."

"The king of Chu was furious, thinking that the people of the Yue country were dissatisfied with the Chu country, and decided to reduce all the Yue people to slaves, kill all the old people of Ding Zhuang, and keep only the women and children."

"Gongzi Yu plotted to assassinate the King of Chu, and the King of Chu was furious, exterminated Gongzi Yu, and angered the Yue people, planning to destroy all the ancient capitals of the two Yue Kingdoms, and slaughter the people of the two places."

"The king of Chu was assassinated and was about to die, and the Chu people decided to slaughter all the people of Yue to avenge the king of Chu."

And so on and so forth.
