Fifteen miles north of the Sword Pavilion, there is a small mountain village called Liujiazhai. The village is small, with only five families and twenty people. Liujiazhai is far from the main road, and a narrow sheep intestine path leads to the village. Surrounded by mountains, a small river flows through the village, and the valley is the source of food rations for the village's 20 or so families. The village is too small and very closed, and it can't be found on the map of Jiange County, so these 20 or so people don't have to pay food or have no errands, which can be described as a realistic version of the peach blossom source.

Ten days ago, a group of people suddenly came to Liujiazhai, all of them were sturdy young men. The leader is a middle-aged man with cold eyes, and his beard is full of murderous eyes. Along with the leader came an old man with a full head of white hair, who was not bad, although he did not smile much, but he was very polite to people. Where did this group of people come from? What are you doing here? Nobody knows. These men rented a dilapidated house in the village where grain was stored, and never showed up again, and everything was done by the old man.

Lao Liu of Liujiazhai is responsible for delivering meals to these people every day. According to him, these people were very mysterious, they slept in their rooms during the day, and they all went out at night, they didn't know what to do, and they all carried swords. Lao Liu also saw that just last night, a few people dragged back a dead man, and the frightened Lao Liu almost peed his pants, hurriedly put down the meal and turned around and ran.

Lao Liu told the three elders in the village what he saw, and the three elders were also shocked. Although there are not many people in Liujiazhai, such a thing has never happened in hundreds of years, if the government knows, the good life of Liujiazhai is gone, not to mention, it will affect the whole village. So, the three elders decided to drive those people away as soon as possible.

Hou Jian stood on the mountain beam, and Hou Si stood behind him, and the two of them were silent, looking at the originally beautiful small mountain village, which was ravaged in the fire. A few mountain people on the mountain road who wanted to escape were slashed by Hou Jian's men and kicked into the burning houses.

A man in black ran over and saluted Hou Jianxing: "Waiting for the army, there are twenty-three people in the village, one of them has not returned, and the others have been dealt with!" ”

Hou Jian nodded: "Leave two people behind, the others will move immediately, and there must be no traces left, remember, we have never appeared here." ”

"Whoa!"

Waiting for the man in black to leave, Hou Si sighed: "Master, do we really want to do this?" These villagers have no ill intentions, they just don't want to cause trouble, and as long as we leave, they will never tell us where we are. ”

Hou Jian didn't look at Hou Si: "I don't believe anyone except you and me now, including the king, do you understand what I mean?" ”

Hou Si nodded: "The king asked us to get rid of Su Ren this time, in case we can't succeed, how can we explain to the king?" With the character of the king, I am afraid that our situation is not good. ”

"The use of the Sword Pavilion mountain bandits has failed, and the mountain bandits in other places also know that this team of people is Su Ren, with Su Ren's prestige, those guys will definitely not dare to act rashly, and then we must do it ourselves, in order not to expose us, this village must be completely erased, and dealing with Su Ren is the best time to deal with Su Ren only if he feels impossible, no matter what, it must succeed, even if it takes my life!" Hou Jian said lightly, and did not become uneasy because of Hou Si's words.

Hou Si didn't say anything. The owner of his own family was raised by him, a high-spirited person, who has been suppressed by Su Ren for the past two years, homeless, not to mention, everything he has is gone, and now he has been reduced to someone else's dog. All of this made Hou Jian change, he became ruthless, he became murderous, and he became like a beast with no human feelings. Sometimes Hou Si didn't dare to stay by Hou Jian's side for a long time.

In the end, the mountain man who had gone out had been caught, and before he could cry, his head was chopped off. The villages under the ridges have all been set on fire, burning not only the houses but also the crops. When it rains heavily next year, the original Liujiazhai will be covered with weeds under the moisture of these grass ashes. In a few more years, no one may know that there was once a small village of more than 20 people.

I watched as the flames grew smaller and didn't ignite the surrounding woods. Hou Jiancai led people out of Liujiazhai and turned onto the road along the sheep intestine path, he was looking for a place that seemed the most unsuitable for a sneak attack. In so many battles with Su Ren, Hou Jian has never found the trick. Su Ren looks full of flaws, but in fact, he is not leaky, even when it is the most dangerous, he can think of the most exquisite solutions.

There is also a valley in front of it, with open terrain and water sources, which is the best place to be a camp. The surrounding woods are not far away, and there is no wild beast that will not be found approaching, nor will the woods be ignited by fire. Of course, this is not the best place to sneak attack, as long as you have a strong bow, even two hundred people will not be able to get close to the camp with fifty guards.

"It's right here!" Hou Jian stopped: "Everyone hid in the forest and waited!" ”

Hou Si glanced at Hou Jian: "The terrain is very unfavorable for us, Su Ren has fifty guards, this is not a good place for a sneak attack, right?" ”

"Right here!" Hou Jian did not explain, and had already ordered those men in black to hide and cover up their traces.

Sending off the happy mountain bandits, Su Ren lay comfortably on the grass in front of the Sword Gate. I didn't expect my name to be so easy to use, this may be the celebrity effect, no wonder those stars in later generations have been crowded with people, and today he also feels the feeling of being a celebrity. It didn't take much to persuade those mountain bandits to go to Qiangdi, even if only one-third of the mountain bandits went to Qiangdi, there were five or six hundred people, and it would be a catastrophe for Qiangdi.

Leng Jun looked at the group of mountain bandits who were full of confidence in the future, and asked Su Ren: "Why do you want them to go to Qiangdi?" Isn't the Qiang land still in chaos? ”

"Here you go again, put away your mercy, and remember one thing, the heart of those who are not of my race will be different! The best way to turn the land of the savages into a place for us Han people is to wipe them out completely. ”

"You hate barbarians so much? They are also human beings and have the right to live! ”

"That's right!" Su Ren nodded: "Yes, everyone has the right to live, including wolves, insects, tigers and leopards, as well as this little grass, everything that has life has the right to live, but don't forget that the place of life is limited, we have to live and live, in order for us to live better, then we have to let others not live well, this is called the right to live." ”

"The Han land is rich and rich, it is the best place in the world, it is such a good place, not everyone can be fed and clothed, if there are more and more Han people in the future, how should we live? You have planted the land and know how many hectares of land are needed for one stone of rice, and when one stone of rice cannot keep you and your family alive, you will naturally try to find ways to grow a little more, so where does the extra land come from? ”

"Crooked!" stared at Su Ren coldly, although he felt that what Su Ren said was crooked, but he couldn't say anything else: "According to what you say, all the places in the world have become places for us Han people?" ”

"Not really! It's not necessarily a good thing if the region is big, you don't have a brother who doesn't understand, when a big family has a lot of people and few places, the whole family will be crowded together, and when there are few people in the local area, they will think about splitting up, the Zhou Dynasty is a good example, after many brothers split up, what has become? Divided and wars continued, so this land can't be too much and not too little, there must be a degree. ”

"How much is that?"

Su Ren shook his head: "I don't know, this is something Your Majesty is considering!" ”

Leng Jun snorted and left, arguing with Su Ren that he had never won. What Su Ren said was not convincing, but it made people have to think. It can be inferred from this that the reason why the Han people killed each other was on the land. In order to compete for the best and most beautiful land, the Spring and Autumn Five Hegemons attacked other small countries. In order to snatch more resources, the Seven Heroes of the Warring States attacked and killed each other. Even in the war at the end of Qin, it was because the people couldn't live anymore that they rebelled.

The Han Dynasty is now slowly becoming stronger, and no one knows what the future will be. As the population increases, there will inevitably be a shortage of land. There's actually nothing wrong with planning ahead. Leng Jun is a descendant of Xiang Yu, although he has no formal education, the family still has the overall situation, so he understands Su Ren's words more deeply.

Leng Jun left, and Su Kai came again. Su Ren raised his head and asked, "What?" Who has the situation? ”

Su Kai shook his head: "They are very peaceful, it is also a good choice for you to let these mountain bandits go to Qiangdi, it is the responsibility of every Han person to open up territory for my Han Dynasty!" ”

"! Leng Er's compassion is too heavy, you are a little stupid to be loyal, it's really boring to talk to you! Su Ren turned over and sat up: "Say, what the hell is going on, it's hard to rest, and it's all ruined by you!" ”

Su Kai said: "What do you think of the two people that the master of the three villages said?" ”

"What else can you think? Enemy! I have offended so many people in Shu County, and there are not a few who want me to die! ”

"Who do you think it is?"

"Who do you think it is?"

Su Kai shook his head: "I don't know, I just think what the master of Sanzhai said seems to have seen before, once in Yuanshan and once in Chengdu!" ”

"Hahaha...... now that you know, you still ask?" Su Ren patted Su Kai on the shoulder and smiled: "In the past two years, I have provoked a lot of people, and he is the only one who is really ruthless against me, and he has repeatedly failed and made a comeback." ”

"Why didn't you kill him?"

"It's easy to kill people, and it's not for everyone to keep their most ferocious enemies." Su Ren said very seriously: "I'm a lazy person, I always need some motivation to do anything, more and more people need to be protected and taken care of in the past three years, in such a troubled life, I need to raise my vigilance all the time, and keeping him is just for me not to relax." ”

Su Kai nodded: "Maybe you're right, if you want something better, I'm willing to be your enemy and remind you all the time!" ”

"No, you're too dangerous, I think that's good!"
