The side of the off-duty soldiers was clearly expecting war, and it was easy to convince them. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

If you want to convince different people, you need different reasons, and sometimes some high-sounding words may not be able to believe everyone, only good people.

Half of the council members and the original clan leaders in Xia City were in Yucheng, and although they did not have high power, they had high authority and influence among the clansmen, and the circle formed by kinship could easily become an obstacle.

And it is not easy to convince them.

In the government hall, half of the people unconditionally support Chen Jian, but half of them still have different opinions.

"If you want me to say, don't fight now. If the Dongyi people enter the hinterland with consecutive victories, we will go out again, so that the reputation will be higher. ”

"Besides, our workshops are selling just right now, if we can't fight, we won't fight, and all the workshops will stop when we fight, so why bother? How strong can the Dongyi people be? They can't beat us, and they can't beat a few cities, so they have to retreat. ”

"When the leader of Suyue comes back, we can send troops, and then we only need three or five hundred soldiers. Now that you want to fight with the Dongyi people, where are there so many people? Even if there is, it's all our people, why should they die for the people of Windy City? ”

Everyone wants something different, and here is a conflict of interest. Chen Jian was ambitious, and these people knew that they could not become leaders, nor could they make too many meritorious contributions in the war, and they were unwilling and could not be willing to fight foreign wars.

Originally, they could plunder slaves, but now that the clan has been broken and the merit system has been rebuilt, they can't share much of the slaves they have plundered, so they have no interest.

There is not even a single sentence or two of argument about common ancestry in the argument about this matter, it seems to them that it is not important, it is too short, and some things are not innate.

After listening to everyone's opinions, Jian Chen asked the black-clothed guards to guard the door, leaving only the management and high-ranking figures in the entire Xia City system.

"You're right, but have you thought about it? When we set out on the expedition, Windy City had already been breached, and thousands of people in Windy City were rescued by us, where did they go? ”

"Rebuilding in the Windy City? They don't dare and can't. With nothing, who can you rely on? Still not relying on us? Those relatives and nobles are the same as those ordinary people, what is left except for a life? If they want to maintain their original lives, what else can they do except exploit ordinary people even more? ”

"Those ordinary people have nothing, they want to live...... Ha, you can only make a living near Yucheng. Ladies and gentlemen...... Charity laws are not for our good intentions. Now that you have money, public property, skilled workers and skills, what is lacking? What is lacking is people. Once these people come, the city will be more regulated, allowing more private workshops. ”

The half of the people who were originally against hesitated for a moment, their faces showing ecstasy, but then they said, "But they still have a leader......"

"Chief? If Feng Hao is really dedicated to the clan, then it's easy to say. If his people want to survive, they need to borrow things for us, and they borrow a lot, so much so that they will agree to what we want. ”

"If he is not dedicated to the clan and only for himself, then it is better to say. At that time, he can only oppress the lowest level of the countrymen, in case ...... I mean, what if the low-level people riot and drive him away, and plead to annex Xia City? Or what if he died? ”

In case there was something to be done, those people immediately understood what Jian Chen meant, and almost instantly thought of many ways to do what to do, and clenched their fists one by one.

It was a city of seven or eight thousand people, and once they were attached to Yucheng, they had to obey the charity law, and they were not those indispensable workshop workers in Yucheng, they could divide and conquer. Wooing relatives and nobles, bullying the bottom, and dividing the middle, there are thousands of ways to make these people unable to hold together.

With two years of experience fighting the workshop workers, this group of people is no longer the same people who did not know how to govern and rule the new workshop system instead of the slave system, they already have the means to grab their own interests within the rules, and they do not need to be as crude and simple as before.

Population means that the price of workers in private workshops has fallen again, and even that those workshop workers have no money to hold the city hostage.

After thinking about it for a while, everyone nodded in unison and agreed to this expedition, and then they dispersed and began to prepare the materials and rest of the arrangements needed for this expedition.

After taking care of the upper echelons, Chen Jian ordered the people to blow the whistle to stop most of the work in the workshops that could be suspended, and gathered all the young people who needed to go out for military service, along with the children of the relatives and nobles of the various cities.

These people are well-fed and warmly dressed, perhaps inferior to those high-level people, but the welfare in the urban system makes them very comfortable, coupled with Chen Jian's propaganda once every ten years, Shi Camelina and others' performances, etc., so that they have a recognition of the concept of ethnic ancestors, and believe, and even a little proud.

After all, without the guidance of their ancestors, they might have lived the same life as those Yidi, or even inferior to them.

For this group of people, Jian Chen does not need and cannot say the same as in the council.

He climbed the wooden platform and heard the trust they placed in him amid the cheers of the crowd. Some are called by name, some are called chiefs, and some are called gentlemen.

After greetings, Jian Chen shouted, "You have also heard that the Dongyi people have invaded our land. That is the inch of land that the ancestors fought for by blood, and that is the fertile field watered by the sweat of the ancestors. ”

"The guidance of our ancestors has allowed us to live a good life, and our Xiacheng people are especially favored by our ancestors, just like the youngest son who is most loved by his parents in the family. There were times when we were weak, we lived in caves, we ate grass roots, and we needed to take care of them. ”

"Now that we have grown up, although we are still young children, this is unchangeable, but we can afford to move the bow and arrow with a spear. When someone tramples on the dignity of their ancestors, it's time for us, who are young sons, to tell those brothers that when we grow up, we can also go to protect the land of our ancestors! ”

"Some people say that Windy City is far away from us, it's none of our business, and we're still safe."

"But let me say it's not just about us, it's about us. Why did those men attack Windy City? Because that's our kinship, because they're not Dongyi people. ”

"Hitting the Windy City has nothing to do with us, so we don't go on the expedition; When we hit Sucheng, it still has nothing to do with us, so we still don't go on the expedition; When they really come to Summer City one day, who will stand up and fight for us? Those people have taken away our relatives, and perhaps in the future, they will take us to be slaves. ”

"Are you willing to be slaves? Think of the slaves who toiled in the copper mines of Xia City, would you be willing to be like that? ”

"If you don't want to, you have to prepare in advance. Just like the fire in the east house, the wind blows to the west, do you think you can not fight the fire in the west? ”

"The people of Xia City, we are the descendants of our ancestors first, then one of the great river tribes, and finally the people of Xia City. What would you do if your mother and your brother were bullied? ”

The crowd at the assembly screamed, "Fight back! Let those people go back to their own land! ”

Chen Jian pressed his hands, and now that the chicken blood has also been eaten, he should say something more practical.

"If you want me to say, we're not fighting for the Windy City, we're fighting for ourselves. The ambitions of the Dongyi people are huge, they will one day want to hit us, they take one more of our relatives to be slaves, they will be stronger, we will be more vulnerable, and more people will die in the future. ”

"Besides, since the Dongyi people can take our relatives as slaves, can't we take away their people? You know, whether it's a charity decree or another decree, it's only for relatives of the same ancestor. ”

"The slaves that were plundered were owned by the public, but whose property did they own? Not every Xiacheng citizen? Isn't everything you get every year because of your status as a countryman taken out of public property? It is true that these slaves are not in your hands, but do you want slaves or slaves? I guess I don't need to say that anymore, right? ”

"Since you are a countryman, and since you enjoy everything that a countryman deserves, you should contribute to the public property and the city. Otherwise, those who have worked hard will think, why should we give you the public property that we have worked so hard to get? You're right? ”

It is easier to convince the Chinese people, every truth is reasonable, and there is no deception, which is indeed closely related to everyone, and the special treatment in daily life and the simple idea of the integration of rights and obligations instilled by Chen Jian make them agree with this straightforward propaganda.

The crowd below was cheering, but the cheers were mixed with some slightly immature voices, and the young relatives of several cities may have shouted because of their young age and their blood has not yet cooled, and they shouted: "Ji Xia, we are going too!" You're right, it's not just about Xia City, it's about the entire Great River Clan. ”

Jian Chen laughed and said, "You guys? You are still young, will you be able to fight? ”

The children retorted: "We have also drawn bows and arrows since we were children, where is it as fragile as Ji Xia said? Besides, this year we also learned to ride a horse and a car, so what can't we go? Besides, we also have the black-clothed guards in our own city, and they can also follow us to drive out the Dongyi people! ”

Jian Chen shook his head and said, "Children, I am not qualified to take them there, otherwise I will break my original oath." I am the leader of Xia City, but your people are not the black guards of Xia City. ”

This is a hurdle that cannot be bypassed, those people frowned, and they also knew that if the name was not right, it would not be good, and the blood that had just been stirred up was stuffed in their hearts, as if their chests were about to explode.

Just when everyone was hesitating, Ehuang Weixi and the others, who had already been instructed by Chen Jian, suddenly pulled out a banner from their arms and shouted: "This is not a city's business, this is the business of the Great River Tribes." We are not going in the name of the sons of any one or the people of any city, but in the name of the ancestors of the great rivers, and no one is qualified to stop us! ”

The children looked back and saw a flag, a flag they were familiar with and associated with the drunken gentleman.

A banner called a dragon that blends the various clans, and its body is like a great river, winding and terrifying.

As the flag danced, the blue blood that was suppressed in their hearts and could not be released instantly found an excuse, and those hot and young hearts shouted, looking up at the flag together, roaring wildly. (To be continued.) )
