Chapter 15: Killing

"Lord Wang, Your Majesty has agreed to destroy Shu, and this military mobilization depends on the Lord Wang!" Zhong Yunzhang said with a smile, his eyes showing a glint of excitement. Zhong Yunzhang's status in the political arena of Chu is not low, but no one is willing to give up if he has merit. Not to mention that this kind of 100% can be completed, which is equivalent to the credit of picking up for nothing. Of course, it can't be said that it was picked up in vain, after all, Zhong Yunzhang still spent a lot of effort in order to open the Shu Road.

Ma Guangmeng's natural way Zhong Yunzhang meant, he smiled and quipped: "Lord Zhong is in a hurry, don't worry, this Shu Kingdom is a grasshopper with its legs, it can't run." However, how to do it carefully and without mistakes is the most important thing! ”

"What the prince said is reasonable, but the Shu army is weak, and now the main force is not in Sichuan, presumably those Shu countries are not in much trouble." Zhong Yunzhang said, he was a little anxious, after all, if someone in Shu saw through it, it would not be good. Of course, this possibility is very high, after all, there is still an internal response of Chu within Shu, but it can't be guarded against.

"Lord Zhong," Ma Guangmeng thought about it for a while, and said honestly: "Although Your Majesty allows me to expand the army by 30,000 in Longyou, this new army is not easy to train, even if the Shu army surrenders, we will select 30,000 horses from the army of Shu, but the morale of this Shu army is low and the combat effectiveness is low, and these 30,000 people are probably not much different from the new army." The great cause of the Northern Expedition is the most important, and I will definitely not rush to put these new troops on the front line. In this way, the main force of the Northern Expedition is still the original 70,000 horses on our Western Front. ”

Zhong Yunzhang blinked, Ma Guangmeng's words made Zhong Yunzhang slightly stunned in his heart, what do you mean, does this King of Xiangyin want to leave the new army in Shu? This... The natives are stationed in the local area, in case they have evil intentions in their hearts, then... Isn't there a change in Shuzhong? Zhong Yunzhang hesitated and said: "Lord Wang, in this way, in case something happens in Shuzhong, this... How can this be? ”

Regarding the issue of the garrison, Ma Yun and they have already discussed it at the high-level meeting, and the number is set at 20,000, but in the end, the 20,000 people and those two divisions are stationed in Shuzhong, His Majesty the Emperor did not say it explicitly, so that Ma Guangmeng has the final say on the power of the garrison. If Ma Guangmeng insisted on putting the new army in Shuzhong, Zhong Yunzhang naturally had no choice, but Zhong Yunzhang couldn't help but raise some objections, after all, once Shuzhong was taken, the responsibility of pacifying Shuzhong would fall into Zhong Yunzhang's hands. Zhong Yunzhang had to take at least half a year in Sichuan, straighten out the relationship, identify the middle, and even implement the policy of farming in Dachu, so that he could turn back to the central government. The policy of the state of Chu is against excessive annexation of land, but the state of Shu is full of big and powerful people, a few thousandths of the people, occupy eighty percent of the land, so that if the policy of the state of Chu is promoted in Shu, then... That will definitely encounter strong resistance from these people, this is taking money out of other people's pockets, it's strange that those heroes will obediently obey orders!

Zhong Yunzhang was a little worried, but Ma Guangmeng smiled and said, "I guessed that you would be worried about this." The Shu army is indeed weak, but these powerful landlords in the local area are always fighting against our Great Chu, and this is not a way, not to mention, they have annexed so seriously, and the imperial court may not have so much silver taels to redeem the land! ”

"Then according to the prince, what should I do?" Zhong Yunzhang asked.

"Hehe, I don't know much about government affairs, this implementation of national politics is something I have never thought about, Lord Zhong is the deputy minister of the imperial court, these things must be difficult Lord Zhong!" Ma Guang pushed away. However, looking at the way his eyes wandered and stopped talking, Zhong Yunzhang would not think that Ma Guangmeng did not pay attention.

But Zhong Yunzhang is not stupid, he saw that Ma Guangmeng had the intention of shirking, and he also understood what he was worried about. His Majesty the Emperor is certainly opposed to civilian interference in military affairs, but he is even more vigilant against military interference in government affairs, especially local affairs. Generally, military generals will avoid this problem, but Ma Guangmeng has a special identity and will not intervene in this kind of problem. However, Ma Guangmeng's words were obviously implying that he actually had an idea.

Zhong Yunzhang smiled indifferently and said, "I have an idea, I'm afraid that you won't agree!" Zhong Yunzhang did not ask Ma Guangmeng, and then claimed to have an idea.

Ma Guangmeng was stunned in his heart, he originally wanted Zhong Yunzhang to beg him, and then he reluctantly said that method, after all, that method was not only not just bright, but a little ruthless. Even though Ma Guangmeng is not afraid of material discussions, he is really unwilling to open his mouth first. However, since Zhong Yunzhang had an idea, Ma Guangmeng would naturally ask curiously: "Lord Zhong, what kind of magic is there!" ”

An imperceptible smile appeared on the corner of Zhong Yunzhang's mouth, and he said: "My attention is to let General Lu Jiang Lu lead the 20,000 horses of Jinzhou to live in Chengdu Mansion, so that even if there is any change in Sichuan, General Lu Jiang will be enough to deal with it!" ”

Ma Guangmeng hurriedly shook his head, he said with a wry smile: "Lu Jiang is shrewd and good at fighting, I am about to use this person a lot, how can I be idle in Sichuan, Lord Zhong, I won't agree to your idea!" ”

"Since the prince doesn't agree, then, why don't you give me an idea. Your idea is definitely applicable! Zhong Yunzhang said stickily, he was originally throwing bricks to lead the jade, but now that the bricks have been thrown, Ma Guangmeng, you have to say a few words anyway.

"Hehe, I'm in charge of military affairs, but I don't know much about local affairs. However, I have a question, Lingnan was also the same land annexation back then, but it seems that His Majesty the Emperor handled it very well! Ma Guang said with a fierce smile.

Zhong Yunzhang was stunned, he was the official of the Lingnan Han Kingdom, and when he heard Ma Guangmeng's words, he was shocked, I didn't offend the king of Xiangyin. Is he sarcastic when he says that? However, he immediately came to his senses, although he had a general friendship with the King of Xiangyin, it did not mean that the King of Xiangyin would not be so arrogant and sarcastic about me. Oh, I see. Zhong Yunzhang suddenly realized that Ma Guangmeng meant that to deal with the affairs of Sichuan, you can learn from Lingnan.

However, there is no comparison. Zhong Yunzhang frowned, and finally couldn't help but say: "Lord Wang, the land annexation in Lingnan was serious back then, but our army and Li Tang's army were attacked in two ways, and the powerful in those places either died or surrendered or fled, not to mention that many of these powerful people were eunuchs, and with His Majesty the Emperor starting to deal with the eunuchs, a large amount of land in Lingnan can be said to have become uninhabited land in the blink of an eye!" THIS AND ... This is different from the situation in Kawanaka! Zhong Yunzhang said and paused, could it be... Could it be that Ma Guangmeng means to think...

At that moment, Zhong Yunzhang looked at Ma Guangmeng suspiciously. Ma Guang waved his hand violently and said with a smile: "Lord Zhong, do you have any good ideas again!" Let's hear it! ”

Zhong Yunzhang's psychological face is now full of doubts, what doubts, he is wondering, is Ma Guangmeng hinting that after he took Chengdu City, he will soar, and preemptively clean up the landlord Haoqiang, and deter this group of powerful Diao people, these people have been taken, so it is enough to station 1oooo people in Sichuan, or to station a new army. Zhong Yunzhang thought psychologically: However, we are a sneak attack this time, and we can take it in one go, the possibility of the whole Sichuan is very low, in this case, those landlords and powerful can only accept the rule of Da Chu, but if Da Chu forcibly implements the new policy and takes money from them, it is estimated that they will make trouble.

Zhong Yunzhang is a bit of a duck on the shelf. So, he smiled and said, "What does the prince mean by taking down the heads of some people to shock Chuanzhong?" The method proposed by Zhong Yunzhang can be regarded as an international practice and has a long history. At least Ma Yun has done it many times, killing traitors in Nanping, expelling eunuchs in Lingnan, and killing five ghosts in Li Tang! On the one hand, these are to buy people's hearts and take out the big ones to sacrifice the flags of those officials with low status in the eyes of the broad masses of the people, and on the other hand, to ease the people's hearts and export their anger for the people; On the other hand, it is also to deter those naughty and mischievous elements, tell them who is the boss now, and let them recognize the situation clearly. But this time, it is very likely that the people surrendered en masse, which ,,, I am afraid that this indiscriminate killing will not have a good impact on the emperor.

When the world is peaceful, killing half-hearted lords and putting on a show should be what emperors often do. However, when the world is in turmoil, killing those who surrender or surrender has some bad effects. If you kill those who surrendered today without any reason, then those who have not yet surrendered and want to surrender will probably immediately become afraid to surrender. At present, there are still pseudo-Zhou, Han, and Khitan, and in this perennial war, no one in these countries wants to surrender, which is strange. Therefore, Zhong Yunzhang was reluctant to kill the captives.

"Hahaha, Lord Zhong, you are so smart, your thoughts coincide with mine. Of course, there is still a difference between this killing, and it is best to kill those who are full of evil in a short period of time, and then force them to rebel, but quickly send troops to quell the rebellion. In this way, my Da Chu's heart in Sichuan can really be stabilized.

When did it become my idea, but this Ma Guangmeng didn't take himself out, he just made Zhong Yunzhang a joint signature. "This... Will this affect the long-term stability of Kawanaka? After all, what Your Majesty needs is a stable Kawanaka! Zhong Yunzhang said.

"The chaos will definitely be chaotic for a while, but it is conducive to the long-term peace and stability of Sichuan. Otherwise, how could the imperial court have so much money to buy land from them and then sell it to the people? Since these people are all legacy of the previous dynasty, there is no need for this dynasty to ensure their safety. If you don't surrender and don't obey the heroes, it's better to take them down, as long as you get along with the people, no one will have the strength to rebel, as for those heroes, hehe, I'm afraid few butts are clean! Ma Guangmeng said with a grin.
