Although he has never been a pirate, Shi Mingzhi deeply understands the suffering of civilians, and can better understand the meaning of people's misery. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 Moreover, he is also one of the victims, not long ago he was falsely accused, imprisoned, and suffered greatly from bureaucracy. Therefore, when Zhuge Mou said these words, he kept silent without the slightest objection, which can be regarded as another kind of acquiescence and recognition, with a faint look of shame on his face.

As if he had found a feeling, Zhuge Mou continued: "The current forces of all parties, in line with the strategy of burning, killing and looting, plundered as much as possible. However, I do not agree with this approach. If we want to take advantage of the situation on the southeast coast to become bigger, we must rely not only on strong force, but also on the support and recognition of coastal residents. ”

"As Li Shimin said, water can carry boats and can also capsize boats, as long as we are recognized by the common people, we will not worry about the replenishment of troops and material supplies."

"Looking at the general trend of the world, as long as we take advantage of the situation, make good use of the situation, take advantage of the situation, and take advantage of the situation, our thunder can be invincible, defeat the enemies of all sides, unify all the forces on the southeast coast, and overthrow the Qing Dynasty!"

At this time, when Zhuge Mou was about to continue to speak, Qi Zhiyuan suddenly waved his hand and interjected: "Mr. Zhuge , now is not the time to talk about these things, the future development direction. For today's plan, the most important thing is to discuss, how to clean up the people of the Blue Banner gang who are hiding? ”

"While those people are not worried, they have to deal with it as soon as possible. After all, although there are not many personnel, it will still affect us and bring unnecessary trouble. ”

"Two, do you have any good ways to find out these people in the shortest possible time? In the days to come, we will have to face the pressure of the other four pirates, and we may not be able to spare more energy to deal with this matter. If it drags on for too long, it's not good. ”

After finishing speaking, he fell silent, waiting for the opinions of the two, revealing a look of expectation. Whether it was Shi Mingzhi, who was born in the military, or Zhuge Mou, who used to be a pirate, they all nodded, agreeing with what Qi Zhiyuan said, and thinking about it now.

For Shi Mingzhi, since joining the army, contact with pirates has been a head-on conflict, a life-and-death contest, where pirates attack cargo ships, and bring sailors to support and exterminate pirates. Therefore, Shi Mingzhi has no good way to do this kind of brain-burning thing, and from the point of view of a soldier, he still puts forward a general suggestion.

"I think that no matter how to find out those hidden pirates, it is inseparable from a principle, that is, to dismantle them from the inside, this is the most effective and fastest way, the effect of a strong attack is not great, it is impossible to send people to drill into the woods, through the grass, and find unknown caves every day."

"After all, we have just conquered Lamma Island, and the main thing is to consolidate control, run here, make up for the island's defenses, and defend against possible enemies, so we don't have so much energy and manpower to search for them."

seemed to have an understanding, as if there had already been a countermeasure, Zhuge Mou took over the topic, nodded, and said slowly: "What Staff Officer Shi said is right, disintegrating from the inside is the right way." Moreover, those people are only a minority, a very small part. Hiding in the grass and woods, in caves, it's hard for us to catch them. Moreover, it is time-consuming and laborious, and it is difficult to achieve good results in the short term. ”

"In my many years of experience in the Black Flag Gang, the members of the pirates are very mixed, they are all kinds of people, they are not very united, they are more interested in seeking advantages and avoiding disadvantages. Whoever can bring more benefits, they will go to whomever they will go to, and who they will serve, not to mention loyalty or disloyalty, and righteousness only exists among a small number of people, and is more of a means to win people's hearts. ”

"It's like after the loss of Lantau Island, there are very few people with me, and just like that, there is still infighting, and infighting continues. After the battle with the Canton Marines, most of the remaining people defected to other pirate forces, who could give them shelter and food. ”

As he spoke, he seemed to touch the sourness in his heart, and remembered some unpleasant memories, Zhuge Mou began to exude vicissitudes of life, a faint sadness, and his expression was very unnatural. Immediately, Zhuge Mou quickly realized the change in his mood, made an indifferent expression, shrugged his shoulders, and continued to tell lightly, containing a hint of emotion.

"This is the case in the pirate industry, the trees are falling and scattered, the walls are falling and everyone is pushing, there is no loyalty at all, betrayal or non-betrayal, it is difficult for a few people to follow sincerely, and it is even more impossible to do big things, they are all just for temporary pleasure."

After a pause, he breathed a sigh of relief, as if he was spitting out the unhappiness in his heart, which was considered to be venting. After a short silence, Zhuge Mou sorted out his emotions, calmed down his inner mood, and said apologetically: "I'm sorry, I'm off topic, let's continue to talk about my opinion, how to find out those hidden Qingqi gangs?" ”

"I think the reason why those people are hiding is not because they are ready to fight against us and die for the Qingqi Gang, but out of a kind of fear, worried that we will execute them and give them no way out."

"Therefore, dealing with these people is very simple, it is to surrender, to give them hope, not to take drastic measures, which will only strengthen their fears. Therefore, if they want to take the initiative to surrender, it depends on how we deal with these captives. As long as they see the possibility of life, they will not be threatened with death, and they will be promised benefits, and they will definitely come out and surrender on their own initiative. ”

"In this way, all the problems will be solved, and the defenses built by the hidden people will be broken."

Although Zhuge Mou's words were bland, not as exciting as the speakers, and the shouts were sonorous and powerful, every word and sentence was said to be reasonable and convincing, which made the two people on the side very calm, listening carefully, listening as if listening, waiting for the following, specific measures.

"If we want to show our sincerity and tell our attitude to those who are hiding, we can let those who are the first to be captured go deep into the hinterland, where people may be hidden, and spread our promises, as long as we come down sincerely, we will not blame the past, welcome them to join the thunder, become one of them, and be treated the same."

"At the same time, it can also allow the captives on the island to walk around, create a phenomenon, an atmosphere, and let those who are hiding in the shadows feel that we are not lying to them, and that we are doing it sincerely."

"Okay, that's all I can do, if there are any shortcomings, you two can make up for them."

Qi Zhiyuan's worried look had disappeared, and he became relaxed, and when he saw Zhuge Mou finish speaking, he immediately showed his attitude, and said happily: "Mr. Zhuge is right, just do as you say!" ”

At this moment, when Qi Zhiyuan was about to say something, he was interrupted by Shi Mingzhi and interjected: "I very much agree with Zhuge Mou's method. However, for the sake of safety, I think we should still step up patrols, organize more manpower, and guard some important places, such as the batteries along the coast, and the places where warships are moored. Prevent problems before they happen, avoid unnecessary losses, and at the same time maintain law and order and ensure the safety of personnel. ”

"Okay, just do what the two of you say, Shi Mingzhi is responsible for patrolling, and Zhuge Mou is responsible for dealing with prisoners, both at the same time."

As if thinking of something, there was some kind of consideration, Qi Zhiyuan looked at Zhuge Mou, and explained: "Mr. Zhuge , you have been in contact with the Qingqi Gang before, you should know some people, and it is more convenient to communicate with these captives." After all, Staff Officer Shi was in a hostile state with them before, and there would be some personal grievances to some extent, and it was inevitable that there would be some resistance. ”

Of course, Zhuge Mou knew why Qi Zhiyuan said these words and why he explained them to himself? It's nothing more than worrying that he would misunderstand, he did it on purpose, deliberately letting Shi Mingzhi take charge of the army, but he was a surrenderer.

Zhuge Mou smiled slightly, and said very sincerely: "Commander, you didn't want to explain it to me, I never doubted that you had the intention of alienating me, and I understand that such a task assignment is the most appropriate." (To be continued.) )
