Chapter 144: It Is to Defeat the Country (5)
The lord of the Inurong country has been a little strange in recent days, and he has not come to the court, and the auxiliary ministers have gathered his ministers together and asked them their opinions on the extermination of mountain bandits from the surrounding countries.
The ministers of the Inurong country, all of them have evil intentions, because these ministers are secretly in collusion with the bandits, and they wish that there are more and more bandits, and then they can send troops to attack them, and then they will beg for mercy, and they will hand over a lot of swords and coins when they beg for mercy, and after handing them over, these ministers will naturally not hand them over to the treasury, but put them into their own pockets, and the bandits of the dog Rong country are more and more.
It's just that the people of the dog Rong country don't move with other cities at all, so the livelihood of these mountain bandits has become worse and worse in recent years, and in order to survive, some of them actually ploughed the fields themselves, herded some livestock by themselves, and paid less tribute for the livelihood, so these ministers naturally couldn't eat, but because of the majesty of the lord of the country, they didn't dare to blatantly interact with the mountain bandits, so their hearts have been dissatisfied.
"It's great that I can take the opportunity to exterminate the mountain bandits right now and deal with these mountain bandits, so that I can he, and make my bags even more bulging." The ministers all had this idea in their hearts.
So they all said, "If we are willing to listen to your opinion, we will obey it." ”
In fact, they were thinking in their hearts: "Hurry up and give the order to exterminate the mountain bandits, in this way, we can make a lot of money, hahaha." ”
The minister of the auxiliary country nodded, and saw that the opinions of the ministers were like this, so he said: "Well, since the other countries have made it, we can't lag behind, and allow all localities to prepare their own soldiers to exterminate the bandits, and the grain and grass will be supplied by the granaries of each place, and the required coins will be made up by the treasury." ”
"Obey the orders of the Auxiliary Minister."
The ministers were overjoyed, and after making a salute, these ministers secretly rejoiced, and ran out of the hall one after another, and rushed towards their fiefdoms, and at this moment they were in a hurry to gather soldiers and horses, and then crusade against those bandits, not for the people, but for the sake of filling their own pockets.
Shang Dynasty court.
Wen Zhong opened his mouth and said: "Your Majesty, now that several countries in the west have begun to clean up the bandit leaders in the country, they are frequently mobilizing troops at this moment. ”
"Oh? Hehehe, a few small countries don't have to worry, just leave this matter to the Taishi for arrangement, so you don't have to tell the widow. The king sat upright in his chair, but his heart was thinking about Daji.
"Your Majesty."
Wen Zhong walked to the center of the court, and he spoke, "General Huang Feihu." ”
"The end will be."
"Count a thousand soldiers, give them to your command, sweep up the mountain bandits in the south, and kill them all."
"Whoa." Huang Feihu went down.
"I personally led two thousand soldiers to sweep away all the plagues in the north." Wen Zhong said majestically.
All the ministers knelt down and said, "The master has worked hard to take care of his body. ”
Then the soldiers of the north and south of the Shang State began to sweep up the bandits around them, as well as various forces that occupied the mountains as kings, I have to say that the soldiers of the Shang State were very brave in combat, and the soldiers of the Shang State in the south, under the leadership of Huang Feihu, swept twenty cottages in one day, and the soldiers of the Shang State in the north, under the leadership of Taishi Wen Zhong, swept six mountains in one day.
Everywhere he went, he immediately launched an attack on the cottage, although there were casualties, but Wen Zhong was unmoved, in the face of the bandit leaders were all executed, did not accept any surrender, all of them were killed quickly, so I heard Wen Zhong's terrorist suppression, other mountain bandits saw the merchant soldiers, there was no way to fight with them with all their might, for a time in the mountains in the north, piled up many corpses of bandit leaders, they knew that they surrendered is also death, not surrender is also death, it is better to fight hard, despite the Shang country casualties, But Wen Zhong resolutely executed these bandit leaders.
And when Huang Feihu in the south led the soldiers to clean up the mountain bandits, he was obviously much gentler, only killing the bandit leaders and detaining the other bandits, and convicting them according to the law.
On the Hall of Virtue, Taigongwang summoned the ministers to worship, and he worshipped Ji Fa first, Ji Fa first everyone got up, and Taigongwang began to report on the recent developments of several countries.
First of all, the state of Shu, with the help of the clan leader sent troops, took Eagle Mountain in one go, killed all the bandits, and achieved a great victory, and then with their help, Du Yu, the king of Shu, swept away the bandit leaders in the whole territory. And the monarch of the country, the man, led the soldiers to skillfully plan, and quickly subdued most of the bandits in the country and uprooted their power.
"Hahaha, I didn't expect it, people will use tricks, it seems that they learn quite quickly." Ji Fa sighed, he really can't look at people with old eyes, Shibei should be impressed in three days, not to mention that he hasn't seen him for a while.
So he thought about it, in the future, he can't look at people with old eyes, otherwise he will fall behind, in that case, he must always keep a clear head.
Immediately after the prince announced the dynamics of other countries, the ministers of the dog Rong country and the mountain bandits colluded, although it was temporarily hidden for a period of time, but in fact not many mountain bandits were exterminated, it was just that their ministers and the mountain bandits colluded together, and they jointly staged a play, wanting to deceive the monarch of the dog Rong country, but for the time being, the mountain bandits of the dog Rong country had no other movements.
"Damn this group of moths in the country of Inurong, only the people of the country of Inurong are suffering." Ji said angrily.
The ministers discussed one after another, lamenting the misfortune of the people of the Dog Rong Country, and at the same time were sighed by Ji Fa's kindness to the people of the world.
"The king is benevolent."
The ministers sighed one after another.
"Hahaha, it should be." Ji Fa was patted on the back by the ministers and didn't react for a while.
"The Shang State sent Wen Zhong and Huang Feihu to forcefully exterminate the mountain bandits in the entire territory of the Shang State by means of north and south, and implemented a tough policy everywhere they went, killing all the bandit leaders."
As soon as these words came out, the ministers of Zhou Guo gasped, and they all killed them, but they didn't expect Shang Guo to be so brutal and not let go of any bandits.
"It seems that the military strength of the Shang State is really not fake, such a strong combat power, I'm afraid not to mention other effects, even my Zhou State, now it is enough to hang in the face."
Ji Fa understood at this moment why the historical Zhou State, after occupying two-thirds of the world's territory, still bowed down to the Shang State, that is, he was afraid of the strong military strength of the Shang State, and did not choose to fight hard, so Ji found that he was definitely not able to fight hard, and on the surface, he still paid tribute to the Shang State.
Ji said with a smile: "The strength of the suzerain's country is indeed powerful, this is obvious to everyone, so don't discuss it too much." ”
The ministers understood in their hearts, and they also understood the meaning of Ji Fa Taoguang's obscurity, so they didn't discuss this matter too much.
"The soldiers of my Zhou State fought bloodily and finally eliminated all the bandit leaders in the country, among which the outstanding one was Li Along, and there were other soldiers who were all rewarded according to the law." Taigong looked back and saw Ji Fa after speaking.
"Reward." Ji Fa said very decisively.
The stable existence of a country depends on these soldiers who bravely defend the country, and these brave soldiers who serve the people, who shed their blood so that the people can live and work in peace and contentment.
is so brave and tenacious, how can Ji Fa not be rewarded. Therefore, Ji Fa rewarded them all.
"Especially Dr. Li, brave and tenacious, personally led the troops to charge, within three days to break ten cottages, grace and so that the rewards and punishments are moderate, showing the kindness and virtue of my Zhou country, everywhere the people are all happy, have welcomed the arrival of my Zhou soldiers, the people have praised, King Zhou, you are virtuous, this is why Dr. Li is such a good doctor." Taigongwang said with a smile.
Obviously, Taigongwang was very satisfied with Li Along's approach, and he was personally very optimistic about Li Along, touched his beard, and then looked at Li Along.
Ji Fa looked at all this, and sighed very much in his heart: "Ah Long is not only a good minister, but also a good general, and he has such a heart, which is very good, and should be rewarded and rewarded." ”
"Dr. Li is rewarded with a third-level reward and enjoys the same salary."
As soon as Ji Fa said this, Li Along directly knelt down to thank Ji Fa for his kindness.
The ministers also praised Li Along's bravery, and so did Taigongwang, and the ministers praised Li Along.
Then he stood up and said, "Ministers, Zhou Guo please!" ”
"Please, the king." The ministers knelt on the ground one after another and bowed to Ji Fa.
Immediately after that, on the Hall of Virtuous Virtue, a virtuous scene appeared.
