Chapter 501: Persuading the People

Gu Yanzhang himself is a court official, so it is inconvenient to go into battle in person, so he is afraid of losing etiquette, so he explained to Du Erzhong, and then looked back again, and then said to Wang Miyuan: "General Wang, borrow your military academy for a purpose." ”

As he spoke, he pointed at Wei Qi.

Before Wang Miyuan could speak, Wei Qi stepped forward with a bumpy horse, turned over and got off the horse, and trotted in front of Gu Yanzhang.

Gu Yanzhang also said a few words to him.

For a while, both of them received their orders, Wei Qi got back on the horse, and ran forward quickly with Nadu Erzhong.

He had a tall horse under his crotch, and with an acquaintance to lead the way, he quickly turned into a small road, went around the city gate, and found a high place.

Wei Qi was full of anger, his voice was loud, and when he got to the place, as soon as he grabbed the reins of the horse, he immediately shouted loudly: "Stop making any trouble!" The thieves are already in the middle of the way, raising a large army to attack, within a day or two, they will be under the city, the state government for the safety of the people, only to leave you and others in the city, now the noise is non-stop, all die! ”

I raised my voice and repeated it twice.

Wei Qi Xingwu was born, although he is not very old, he has been in battle a lot of times, and at this time he is standing on a high place, and he can roar out, although he may not be able to hear it clearly, but he also knows that there are people talking loudly, and the voice is full of anger, and he can't help but raise his head and take a look.

Du Erzhong hurriedly shouted loudly several times in Yongzhou dialect.

The matter of Jiaozhi to attack the city, the people are just rumors, everyone quietly communicates the news in private, there are never exact words, there is no corroboration, now I see a military academy, a soldier standing on the top, all say so, not only the people are panicked, but also the city gate soldiers who came to control the scene, are also frightened.

From a few dynasties ago to the present of the Great Jin Dynasty, many officials in the state government have a tacit understanding, although they want to say that they want to open up the wisdom of the people, build more state learning, so that people can know good and evil, understand etiquette, and know honor and disgrace, but in fact, they prefer to subordinate them are stupid people who are dull-headed, and he will listen to what you say.

They don't want everyone to be a reader, they just want the number of people to read is enough, and with a literary atmosphere, it is enough to be able to make themselves shiny and beautiful in the exam book.

As for the rest of the people, it is better to cultivate the fields honestly, enlist in the army, strike iron and weave cloth, do not run around, and those who farm also want to become officials, and those who weave cloth also want to become officials, so that they will be difficult to control, and it will take their energy to cause trouble.

Wu Yi has been a pro-people official for several terms, and he happens to belong to one of these "many", and the "essence" of governing the people is naturally comprehended in place, and it is to strictly control the news, except for the officials in the state government, and the city gate officials and guards of the four city gates, the rest of the people do not know the exact situation of the attack of the thieves.

In his opinion, if everyone knows about it, how can the state manage it?

Don't look at it, the counterinsurgency army only practiced outside the city for a few days, and then the grass market outside was noisy, the prices in the city skyrocketed, and the news of the real thieves spread, I don't know what the situation is, if everyone wants to rush out of the city, it will only be a waste of manpower to control.

Those people, as long as they stay in the house honestly, don't make trouble, the brave people obediently come out to fight, women and children shrink into a pile, it is better not to move, physical strength is consumed, food and rice are less, and when Jiaozhi retreats, it is considered their own business, and the credit is in place!

However, Gu Yanzhang didn't think like Wu Yi.

The thieves are in front of you, and there are only a few thousand real soldiers in the city, how to defend the city, and how to retreat from the enemy?

Chen Hao was seriously ill, and he discussed it with several lieutenant generals, and they all felt that this time the toe was menacing, and there must be no small number of troops.

However, Yongzhou is not without a chance of winning, there are not a lot of weapons and baggage in the city, the rebels brought a lot of divine arms and bows that day, and there are some in the state treasury, in order to level the rebellion of Liangjiong, I am worried that Guangyuan Prefecture will be fought together, and the materials allocated are really a lot, as long as they are used properly and commanded properly, the two sides will not be too far apart in strength, and it is not impossible to hold for three or two months.

The people are not stupid, you tell them frankly, Jiaozhi is in front of you, and you can't escape, it's better to fight back to grab a way out, everyone can't choose, and they will work together, but if you blindly hide it, when the thieves really come to the next siege, the first thing they think about is not to retreat the enemy, but to panic.

When the time comes, the state government will have to defend the city on the one hand, and appease the people on the other, where can such a hand be freed?

It's better to advance the panic of the people, and after two days, Jiaozhi has really arrived, and it will not be caught off guard.

Besides, there is such chaos at the city gate at this time, if there is no big news, it is really uncontrollable.

Sure enough, after hearing the words of Wei Qi and Du Erzhong, there was a commotion.

The crowd no longer had the heart to do anything else, but someone shouted, "The thief is coming, and he won't tell us to go out of the city and tell the people in my family!" Isn't the life of a person outside the city a life?! ”

As soon as this man spoke, everyone was clamoring, and they were about to make a fuss again.

Wei Qi yelled and shouted, "Let your mother's bullshit go!" When will it take you to go back to your home now? When you speak, others will believe you? Are you more effective than the court when you speak? If it weren't for you waiting here to delay your work, the yamen would have taken out the manpower to pass it on one by one! ”

He also said: "Don't stop me from going out of the city to spread the word to Chen Jiedu's army outside, he has a BMW in his camp, so he can't go faster than you?" When you walk out of the city gate, if you encounter a thief and are captured, don't tell your family to inform your family, even your life will not be saved! ”

Du Erzhong shouted a few more times in the local dialect.

The people gathered at the gate were said to be hesitant.

Wei Qi shouted again: "If we stop here again, we will not be able to get out of the city, and the people outside will fall into the hands of the thieves, who will be counted?" If you can't wait for the house to hide, don't cry again in the future, it's not going to disperse soon! ”

He said so truthfully, that is, the city gate soldiers who came down to suppress the people were a little hesitant, and half-put away the wooden guns in their hands.

Seeing that the situation was gradually calming down, Wu Putou heard Wei Qi and Du Erzhong speak like this, and he was also suspicious, but he didn't know, but he remembered his errand this time, and hurriedly stepped forward and shouted: "Hurry up and arrest all the things that happened before, especially don't go to the culprit!" ”

Gu Yanzhang heard it in his ears, and almost wanted to arrest this idiot.

With such a large number of people, how to tell who is the "culprit".

Don't say that if you arrest all of them, even if you catch that half, the prisons in Yongzhou City are not enough!

Wu Yi's move was inexplicable.

Leaving so many people in the city, and all the villagers from the left, where do they live and what do they eat?

Who came to the city for a fair, and brought with him a great deal of money?

If you don't have money to eat and live, isn't it forcing people to rob and steal?

In this way, before the thieves arrived, there were nearly 1,000 potential "rebels" in the city.

I don't know what this Zhizhou thinks, or I haven't thought about it at all!
