469 Why should you give up the strong and seek the weak?
On the day that Luo Guanlin secretly left Jiangdu, Chang Suining immediately sent a letter to the twelve states of Huainan Province, ordering the states to assassinate the history and arrive in Jiangdu within seven days after receiving the letter, and bring with them the details of the financial taxes, household registration, soldiers, and ordnance in their respective state capitals in recent years.
There is only one Jiangning City between Hezhou and Jiangdu, and Shi Yunhui, the assassin of Hezhou, received a letter from the Jiedu envoy the next day, he was very active, and asked people to prepare a whole box of documents that had been sorted out a long time ago, and said with blazing eyes: "Leave early tomorrow morning!" ”
But not everyone is as positive as Yunhui.
Wuzhou, who had responded behind Hezhou before, although his actions were full of friction, but after receiving the message, they were all discussing the matter of going to Jiangdu one after another.
As for the last six remaining states, the attitude has not eased-
Among them, Shenzhou and Huangzhou reacted the most fiercely, and these two states have always been the most unconvinced, and they have never hidden their dissatisfaction with Chang Suining.
Shen Zhou's assassination directly tore up Chang Suining's biography: "...... Let me wait to go to Jiangdu to discuss matters? Just because she is a little girl, she also deserves me to worship in person! Joke! ”
And the other party's move is clearly a knocking threat!
Jiangdu reopened the city, the sage had nodded in agreement, and the ceremony of sacrificing to the sea was well known, and countless merchants and wealthy families in Shenzhou City were also ready to move, trying to go to Jiangdu to ask for a passage to go to the sea to do business, but they were politely rejected - the explanation given was: The trade between Jiangdu and Shenzhou can only be opened after the two governments discuss it.
What kind of is this?
It is clear that he is telling Shen Zhou that if Shen Zhou does not go to Jiangdu for a day, the sea order of the city will not be open to them for a day!
Not only the city, but also the workshop trading that is now rising in Jiangdu, as well as the open trade routes, there is no sign of opening up to Shenzhou.
And those news from Jiangdu are very "demagoguing" people's hearts, and now the entire Huainan Province knows that Jiangdu is thriving, living and working in peace and contentment, from the scholars to the ordinary people, all of whom are eager for Jiangdu's new policy.
Those poems that praised the river capital to the sky were blown to the entire Huainan Province like flying flowers, and they couldn't stop it.
Those businessmen and wealthy people who have returned from Jiangdu hit a wall, the more they think about it, the more they can't sit still - in Huainan Road, if everyone is suffering, it's okay, but people Jiangdu is now eating so well, the aroma of meat wafts to their noses, and they can't even share the soup, they can only soak in the bitter water...... Who can stand this hard work?
Those gentlemen are noble, and there are not many people who support Shen Zhou's assassination history to "go it alone", there are bloody examples everywhere, they have more than ordinary people, and they don't want to lose everything they have in the turbulent war.
Under the backlog of dissatisfaction at all levels, the old nobles in Shenzhou City finally began to put pressure on Shenzhou Assassin History.
The Huangzhou Thorn History, which has the same attitude as Shenzhou Assassin and puts dissatisfaction with Chang Suining on the bright side, is also facing the same situation at this moment - how loud the voice of scolding Chang Suining was before, how big is his head now.
The rest of the four states that pretend to be deaf and dumb are also full of turbulent and dissatisfied voices at the moment.
They have not expressed their position, but not expressing their position is already a statement, and there are too many voices secretly fueling the flames, and the six big words "never return to Shunjiangdu" have also been naturally hit on their heads.
Gwangju is among the four states that pretend to be deaf and dumb, and Gwangju has a headache for this recently.
He could feel that now in the city of Gwangju, countless pairs of eyes were watching him from top to bottom, and those eyes were expecting him to keep his mouth shut - don't learn from Shenzhou and Huangzhou, and say words of begging and beating;
Second, I look forward to him stepping out of his legs - quickly take his wealth and leave as soon as possible, and rush to Jiangdu to hand over power.
Gwangju Thorn Shi paced anxiously and angrily: "...... She is in Jiangdu, and she only borrowed a poem to stir up the hearts of the people in the internal affairs of the states, which is simply absurd, insidious, and despicable! ”
"It's not just a poem...... "The strategist of the Gwangju Assassin's Mansion sighed, "There are hundreds of poems." ”
Not to mention, there are a lot of good poems in them, and he can already memorize several of them.
"And those limericks, nursery rhymes......" The strategist sighed again: "It's really hard to prevent." ”
Nursery rhymes, although there is a word "child", but at the political level, it has always been not to be underestimated - compared with those poems that only circulate among officials and scholars, nursery rhymes have a wider coverage and can penetrate more among ordinary people. In this closed world, it doesn't even have an opponent.
And they spread at an astonishing rate, often overnight, and can spread to the public.
And the reason why this thing spreads so quickly has a lot to do with the fact that it is too catchy and very brainwashing.
When this strategist went out this morning, he had heard his own son sing a song, and when he heard it, he hurriedly scolded and stopped it, but after he sat in the sedan chair, when he was out of his mind, he hummed uncontrollably in his head: [...... Six frogs in the pond in the west, croaking, gnawing on the mud, jumping blindly, and not recognizing their home......]
Even now, he couldn't take this voice out of his head, and he had already sung it more than a dozen times in his head just when he was talking to Lord Thorn Shi......
In this way, there is a "Book for the World", a limerick, and a nursery rhyme, just to ensure that everyone can eat this mouthful...... With such a level of coverage, how can it be prevented?
"If you really want to go deeper, the reason why the people's hearts are now falling to Jiangdu is not just because of these poems and nursery rhymes......" The strategist said: "My lord must know that these are superficial after all. ”
What really brings all the people to their hearts is still Jiangdu itself.
In this precarious world, the scene of Jiangdu now is like a dark night lamp, a desert oasis, doing nothing, just staying there, it is enough to make countless people fascinated.
There are the future of books that readers yearn for, the peace and stability that the powerful yearn for, the fertile soil for industry and commerce that businessmen yearn for, and the peace and contentment that ordinary people yearn for.
These poems and nursery rhymes were just pushed to the last handful, giving the people's hearts a gap and confidence to explode together.
Looking at the wrinkled eyebrows of the Gwangju Thorn Shi, the strategist said: "The current situation in the states, as long as the officials still intend to stay in this land, they can't turn a blind eye to these voices. ”
If not, the outcome is predictable. It is inevitable that there will be civil strife first, and then it will be confirmed in the name of rebellion, and then that Chang Sui Ning will naturally lead his troops to take power, but he is afraid that hundreds of people will choose to open the city gate to welcome him.
At that time, the hearts of the people were lost, and the troops were also crushed, and they could not resist a little at all.
This is the dilemma of Gwangju, and it is also the situation that the other five states are about to face.
Unless they don't plan to stay in the Zhisho Prefecture for a long time, they will raise troops as soon as possible and join the struggle for hegemony on all sides-
This sentence touches on the crux of the matter.
"Originally, it was also going to be reversed......" Gwangju Thorn Shi's voice was very low, and his tone was not so determined.
He had secret contacts with several other states, and if it weren't for that, he wouldn't have dared to pretend to be deaf and dumb to this day. It is difficult to sing alone, and facing Chang Suining with his strength alone, he is destined to just hit the stone with an egg, and it is an inevitable choice to hold a group.
But he is still waiting to see the feasibility of this matter in his private heart, and has not really made up his mind.
"My subordinates have a different opinion now...... the strategist pondered for a moment and asked, "My lord thinks that this new assassin Shi Chang Suining has the ambition of a wolf?" ”
Gwangju Thorn Shi snorted: "What is on the bright side! ”
It is also to recruit talents, open workshops, build ships, smelt, develop agriculture, and market divisions...... Soldier power, money and food, there is no one she doesn't toss!
"Therefore, this Chang Sui Ning is bound to have antipathy." The strategist said: "In that case, why don't you submit to her and rebel with her in the future?" ”
Gwangju Thorn History: "? ”
He was asked!
At first glance, this proposal sounds absurd, even unspeakably bizarre...... But I can't bear it, and it can stand up to deep thought.
The strategist took the opportunity to explain the pros and cons: "The adults have no friendship with those people at all, and they say that they want to start an incident, but how much confidence and chance do they have?" ”
Look at the people's regular envoys, the military power, money and food are all prepared...... How solid and reliable.
And people have military merits, fame, and can serve the public, and they really obey her, and they can not be scolded by the people in the backbone-
Recently, Gwangju Thorn Shi, who was scolded by the people and even his own father, couldn't help but start to be moved.
The strategist went on to say that if he followed Jiangdu, even if he didn't talk about the rebellion, he would at least be able to save some money and enrich his family...... This is the immediate benefit.
Gwangju Thorn History was completely shaken.
For others, he still has to think about these words, but this strategist has followed him for many years and is the person he trusts the most - he has been able to sit firmly in the position of Gwangju Assassin for many years, and this person has a lot of credit.
"Of course, Mr. won't hurt me......" Gwangju Thorn Shi sat back in his chair, and finally sighed: "But let me recognize a little woman as the master...... In my heart, horizontal and vertical is not a taste. ”
He was already dissatisfied with the empress in power, and finally saw that the empress was losing her heart and shaking her imperial power, so he was overjoyed, but he turned his head and asked him to submit to another woman, and it was a seventeen or eighteen-year-old girl......
"My lord, the human heart and spleen and stomach are the closest, and when the adults eat meat with the regular envoy, the stomach will be comfortable, and then the heart will naturally be beautiful." The strategist smiled and said, "And it's better to have a taste in your heart for a while, than to have your head off your neck and not a taste......"
Gwangju Assassin Shi smiled bitterly when he heard this: "I have to say, what Mr. said today...... It was said to my heart every word, and it completely relieved my worries for many days. ”
I have probably made a decision in my heart, and I am in the mood to joke: "It's like getting some kind of fairy guidance." ”
The strategist just stroked his beard and smiled.
"Then let people prepare to prepare...... Gwangju Assassin said: "I will personally go to Jiangdu to see what this new Jiedu envoy who has been rumored to be miraculous looks like." ”
The strategist smiled and stood up and saluted: "Your Excellency is wise. ”
That night, Gwangju Thorn Shi returned home and finally didn't get scolded by his father again.
The strategist returned to his residence and bowed deeply to the guests in the study: "This matter has been completed, thank you Mr. Qian for your advice!" ”
Luo Guanlin, who covered his face with half a mask, nodded slightly: "This is the blessing of the people of Gwangju." ”
The strategist couldn't stop sighing: "Sir's words are really to the point......
Especially the indifferent and domineering sentence - [Horizontal and vertical are opposed, why bother to be strong and weak? 】
Such a gesture simply killed this confrontation directly.
Isn't it going to be reversed, then let's all work together - it's just that before reversing, it's normal to save some money, expand your power, engage in people's livelihood by the way, and accumulate more prestige, right?
This is the core of Luo Guanlin's policy against the opposition.
Thinking about the future prospects, the strategist was so excited that he immediately asked people to prepare wine and drink with Mr. Qian.
Mr. Qian politely refused: "When we come to Japan, it's not too late to get together again." ”
Now that this was decided, he hurried to the next place, and asked his adviser, "I wonder if your letter has been prepared?" ”
The counselor hurriedly took out the letter he had prepared and handed it with both hands.
They all have private contacts with each other, and their advisors also have their own set of networks.
If you can knock on the door through their relationship, it will be more effective to turn the countermeasures.
Luo Guanlin took it, thanked him, and left here at night.
The strategist watched him leave, and said with emotion: "Such a talent, but so dedicated, why worry about the great cause." ”
After Luo Guanlin left Gwangju, he went all the way west to Shenzhou.
Gwangju faces Shenzhou in the west, and under Shenzhou are Anju and Huangzhou, and these four states have one thing in common, that is, they are all located on the edge of Huainan Province, which is not easy to be surrounded and blocked, which is also where they are unwilling to obey Chang Suining.
Among them, Anzhou is bordered by Shannan East Road in the west, and Jingzhou is across the Han River. It is also separated from Yuezhou in Jiangnan West Province by only one Chuzhou.
Yuezhou was occupied by Bian Chunliang's army, and Li Xian had been in Jingzhou for most of the year.
That night, outside Jingzhou City, a scout returned to the camp and brought back a secret report: "General, we have intercepted a secret letter from Anzhou to Yuezhou...... Anzhou assassinated Shi Shao Wenxun and privately wanted to collude with Bian Chunliang to cause trouble! ”
In the letter, Shao Wenxun instigated Bian Chunliang to first capture the rich Huainan Road, and then attack Jingshi, and Anzhou was willing to open the gate of Huainan Road for Bian Chunliang.
After the case, Li Xian looked at the secret letter and raised his eyebrows.
"General, the history of Anzhou has rebelled, but you should immediately send a letter to the sage and inform the Huainan Provincial Jiedu Envoy?"
Li Xian let out an "um" and raised his hand to signal the scouts to retreat.
When the detective withdrew from the tent, Li Xian placed the secret letter on top of the oil lamp, watching the letter paper being lit, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
He was just ordered to defend Jingzhou and kill Bian Chunliang...... Anzhou is under the jurisdiction of Huainan Province, what does it have to do with him?
If Huainan Province has any mistakes because of Anzhou, it can only show that the new Jiedu envoy is incompetent.
Moreover, if Bian Chunliang really redirects to attack Huainan Province, it can solve the crisis between Jingzhou and Gyeonggi, which is not a good thing.
Of course, he will not do nothing, he has sworn to the saint that he will recover Yuezhou this month.
For this reason, he is ready, and he is only waiting for tomorrow to send troops.
In the account of the chief general of the Chinese army, Xiao Min is repeatedly confirming the matter of moving troops to Yuezhou tomorrow with the generals.
Since Xiao Min rushed to Jingzhou to support Li Xian, he has fought with Bian's army several times, but he only defended it before, and this time he will attack.
To Xiao Min's surprise, although Li Xian was very dissatisfied with him, and the two had many conflicting opinions, Li Xian listened to his arrangement more than this time to recover Yuezhou's plan and did not quarrel again.
This made Xiao Min breathe a sigh of relief, but also vaguely felt strange, so he repeatedly confirmed tomorrow's battle plan.
After everything was ready, all the subordinates would leave separately, and Xiao Min also came out of the tent to breathe.
He looked in the direction of Huainan Road from afar, and took out the copper plate worn with red thread from his bosom.
Whenever he was overwhelmed by the tense battle and the chaotic people around him, he always missed the good days when he picked up merit behind General Ning Yuan.
Xiao Min held the open copper plate, as if to dissipate the tension, and said: "May General Ning Yuan bless our army with a great victory in this battle......"
Chang Suining, who was far away in Jiangdu, sneezed, and the lights flickered.
