Wang Jian thought for a moment with a cloudy face, and then read it again, this time he actually smiled dumbly, smiled and smiled, but shook his head helplessly.

This is a letter of persuasion.

"Qin Wei is unreasonable, tyrannical Hedong, strict punishment, and prisoners are all over the field, so that groups of thieves are everywhere, and the people are not happy. Now I will seal Qi County, the officials will give their lives, and the thieves will give the head, if Yan Pingzhong will govern A, if Ximen Leopard will govern Ye. Jun is a person who knows the power, not only to show sincerity with the head of a thief, but also to say in the letter that Qin has been bitter for a long time, it is better to turn against the armor, to surrender with Lilly, and return to the Jin Dynasty, and still not lose the title of knight, you and I want to settle the people's happiness together, isn't it beautiful? ”

The rhetoric is gorgeous, but the content is useless, it is simply nonsense, what "I said that I have been bitter for a long time in the letter", and I also slandered Wang Qian's letter.

If this kind of thing spreads, the first one who is unlucky and is strictly interrogated by the Qin State Court Lieutenant is probably him Wang Qian!

Wang Jian didn't want to look at it anymore, so he immediately put it on the candle flame and let it turn into ashes and smoke, and while doing this, he didn't forget to look back.

"If I let outsiders see it, I really feel like I'm destroying evidence." He thought about it, with the rumored Chang'an Jun as a person, and with his style of doing things after coming to Qi County, he would get carried away if he didn't exterminate a water thief, and planned to use such a letter without the slightest content to subjugate himself.

It is more likely that Chang Anjun saw through Wang Qian's trick: Since you want to dig a pit for me, I will pretend not to know, and pour a soak of urine into the pit, so that you can eat Coptis dumbly, and you can't say anything about your suffering.

"Chang'an-kun, Chang'an-kun." Wang Jian complained: "You are a dignified son, comparable to the bright moon in the sky, why are you so serious with me as the little five hundred masters of rotten grass and fluorescent?" ”

This is what Wang Jian can't figure out the most, if Fan Ju, the prime minister of Great Qin, sends a letter to Chang'anjun, it makes sense for Chang'anjun to take this precaution, but who is he Wang Qian? A small military official of the Qin State with no name! Chang'anjun should be defenseless against him.

Wang Jian was a little puzzled, what he didn't know was that when he heard the name "Wang Qian", Chang'an Jun had regarded him as an extremely dangerous opponent, thinking of Wang Qian's great achievements after many years, thinking of his strategy of killing Li Mu with a pit, it was not enough to concentrate on dealing with it, how could he slack off?

No matter what, Wang Jian felt that the first confrontation with Chang'anjun was that he lost.

"That's fine."

He flicked the ash on his body and said with a smile: "Although it is said that the method of using soldiers is to win by combining with odds, but if the odd soldiers do not work, they still have to rely on the two countries to confront each other head-on, and in this regard, Qin is three times better than Zhao." I stabilized the scene in Wu County, and after a year and a half, my uncle followed Wu Anjun to seize Han Pingyang and Shangdang Land, and at that time, Wu County will change from an isolated island enclave to an outpost of the army! ”

Like many knowledgeable people in this era, Wang Jian also believed: Qin Zhao must have a battle! Sooner or later, that day will come.

At that time, it will be his chance to show his talents, and the opportunity to make meritorious contributions!

……

On the side of Qi County, after an unmet confrontation with Wang Qian, within a few days, the rest of the water thieves in Xixiang were also wiped out by Zhao Kuo with the county soldiers and Xixiang Qingzhuang.

Once the water thieves have been destroyed, the remaining evil in the "two evils" in Qi County is the group of thieves on the mountain.

Mingyue was not in a hurry, so Zhao Kuo took the county soldiers back to the county seat to rest, leaving Cai Ze to manage government affairs, and he himself took some doormen and guards and county guards to Nanxiang to inspect, Feiping has already taken the county soldiers to the south to settle in, so the security near the township is guaranteed.

After arriving in Nanxiang, Mingyue found that the situation here was better than the deserted and withered after Xixiang was killed by thieves, but it was much worse than the prosperity and liveliness of Beixiang, Dongxiang and the surrounding counties.

Because Nanxiang is close to the mountains and forests, the terrain is more complex than the other three townships in Qi County, with hills and dense forests, and the land here is also the most barren, and there are many places along the way that are overgrown with weeds and shrubs, which have obviously been abandoned.

In addition to a lot of land abandoned and local residents are nowhere to be found, it is worth noting that in Nanxiang, the power of the local elders has almost become a vacuum, and the slightly larger clans have moved away. If you talk about the proximate cause, of course, it is the bandits of the Ershan group, but according to the statement of the multi-party investigation of the post Wuxin, it can be traced back, but it is related to the battle between the Qin army and the Taiyuan Zhao army here six years ago.

"At that time, the Qin and Zhao armies had a battle here, and after this battle, the township was almost demolished, and the slightly larger heroes were also destroyed, and those who fled, and the local people also fled a lot, most of them fled into the mountains and forests, and took refuge in Wei Yao in the Elder Mountain."

Because the area controlled by the Qin and Zhao armies is changing every day, no matter which side the people do, they will be subjected to the other party's "food to the enemy" afterwards, and the people are also fed up with apportionment, and enough of the soldiers harassing their wives and daughters, so they simply give up the fields and move to the mountains to live, and those displaced people from other places have nowhere to go, so they also gather in one place and go up the mountain to do illegal things to survive.

Mingyue sighed a lot after hearing this: "Lao Tzu has a saying, where the teacher is, thorns are born; After the great army, there will be a fierce year. The reason for all this is war. ”

If there is no war, the people will not give up the land and become homeless, and the homeless people can only fall into the grass in order to survive, the wars in the Warring States period are too intensive, every time there is a war, the population on the land will be reduced, either die or leave, this is a vicious circle.

It's really prosperous, the people are suffering, and the people are suffering!

To add insult to injury, the county officials and chiefs of Zhao State, who had retaken over the land after the end of the war, did not pay any attention to the hardships of the people who had just returned home, and still apportioned the past expedition of cloth, corn, and forced labor to them, and even made up for the period during the occupation of this place by the enemy country!

Under the double oppression, the string called patience broke in the hearts of the peasants.

In the initial stage of the riot, either a farmer hacked to death the eldest son of Hao who came to force debts, or a Lilu expelled the county officials who came to collect grain, so the order of Nanxiang became more and more uncontrolled by the county seat, and the people were more willing to go to Wei Yao in the mountains of Zhener than the county officials who starved and did not know what to do, and they began to cover for Wei Hao to help him eliminate all the Hao Chang of Nanxiang, so that the people's debts did not need to be repaid.

The rapid extermination of the water thieves in Xixiang this time is inseparable from the unanimous support of the whole township, but in the current situation, if you want to get rid of the bandits' nest in one fell swoop, it will be particularly difficult without the cooperation of the people of Nanxiang, and if you are not careful, you will fall into the "vast sea of people's war".

"What are your insights when you have been exploring Nanxiang for a long time?"

Mingyue asked for no letter, although this son has a cynical attitude on weekdays, but he can get things done, but it is extremely efficient. Now he knows Nanxiang well, is familiar with almost every road, and can greet every lilu, but he doesn't know how to do it.

However, after all, You Wuxin is young and can complete the task, but he can't give corresponding countermeasures, but he is protecting Chang'anjun on the side, Fei Ping said: "The minister has an idea!" ”

Mingyue's gaze turned to Fei Ping, but saw that his lazy and lazy squinting eyes opened, this is the appearance of serious thinking, the four black-clothed men under him have their own strengths, Gong Zhongyin is steady and loyal, Dong Fang is jealous and hateful, and the martial arts are superb, and the post is bold and bold, and Fei Ping is resourceful.

Once Mingyue jokingly pointed to his bulging belly and asked what was inside, and Fatty Ping replied seriously: "The minister's belly is full of splendid strategies." ”

This is not boasting, this young fat black clothes does have a belly of ghost ideas.

So Mingyue looked forward to him: "What strategy do you have, let's hear it." ”

Fei Ping replied: "After coming to Nanxiang to garrison, the minister felt that if he wanted to deal with the bandits, it would not work just to hunt and kill them, the thieves were hidden among the people, and the people could be thieves at any time. ”

"Then you mean that the Lord has appeased?" But didn't it fail to let You Wuxin go up the mountain to persuade Wei Yi to surrender before? Does Hipei want to try it too?

At this time, the county magistrate in front of them stopped, and it turned out that they had come to a lilu gate, where a group of children were playing listlessly, the boys were weakly waving wooden sticks, and the girls were staring at the "dishes" made of mud and dust on the ground in a daze. When they saw Yu Wuxin and the others from a distance, they immediately gathered around, stretched out their hands to beg, and their eyes were full of longing.

Mingyue sighed, and asked You Wuxin to take out a few steamed wheat rice cakes from his bag, beckoned a few skinny children to come over, and gave them the cakes one by one.

Fei Ping watched this scene silently, and felt a little disappreciative in his heart, just wheat cakes can stop the hunger of several people, but whether they can solve the hunger of thousands of people is the key to Chang'an Jun's governance of Nanxiang.

So Fei Ping said: "Childe, Nanxiang was already barren, but it happened to encounter the war six years ago, and the drought of the year before was also very serious. This people's livelihood is even more difficult, the agricultural time delayed the year before last has affected this year, the seeds borrowed from the Hao Chang's family last year, to this year to repay several times, these people have no way out, but have to refuse to serve the people, rather than steal. The families of the children that Childe saw were only surviving, and perhaps in a few years, they would escape into the mountains and forests because they could not survive and become thieves who cut off the roads. ”

"Therefore, in the opinion of the ministers, this time to govern Nanxiang, we should first soothe the people, and then suppress the bandits! Take its wings, and it will be difficult for the bandits to become a climate. ”

"That's a good point!"

As soon as Fei Ping's words fell, Mingyue clapped his hands and praised it, because the solution he proposed coincided with the idea in his heart.

"The art of war is used to soothe and suppress at the same time, not to appease the thief, but to soothe the ears of the thief who is hungry!"
