Zhao Zhen has lived in a stable environment all his life, although he also has ambitions, but he still wants to be stable.

Just looking at his attitude of supporting Fan Zhongyan and others in implementing the new policy, it is not difficult to see that this emperor lacks a bit of decisiveness and ruthlessness, although he is a good emperor.

"Send people to negotiate, and the attitude should be correct, not too aggressive."

Qin Wei gave the order, and the two officials had no choice but to step forward and negotiate peace with several leaders of the rebels on the opposite side with their throats.

The general meaning is similar to what Qin Wei thought.

These people are here to be recruited, and this trick seems to have been tried and tested.

Throughout the three hundred years of the Great Song Dynasty, there were countless people who were recruited, and the consequence was that the more soldiers were recruited, the less food they ate, and the more money they spent.

The little official who shouted came back and came to Qin Wei to report: "They said that they wanted us to retreat thirty miles, and asked the imperial court to issue an edict to recruit peace, and not to pursue the fault of this rebellion. ”

Sure enough, it was to recruit An, and he was afraid of wolves and tigers before making a request.

Why rebel with all this guts?

Qin Wei was speechless and said: "Send someone back to report the matter of Zhao'an immediately...... As for opening the warehouse and releasing grain, tell them that this official is not Xiangfu County Order, nor is he Kaifeng Mansion Yin, and he does not have this authority. ”

Yang Fan reminded: "Will this force them to be anxious?" ”

Qin Wei didn't reply to him, but continued: "Order the army to start an encirclement, and then retreat two miles back in place." ”

"What does that mean?"

Yang Fan couldn't understand what he wanted to do, if he wanted to attack, just open the offensive directly, and the encirclement would only increase casualties. And two miles back, it's even more confusing.

"Psychological warfare ......"

Qin Wei didn't explain immediately, but waited until the troops launched an encirclement, and then ordered the Huotou Army to bury the pot and cook in situ!

The food of the army can be described as indescribable, Qin Wei glanced at the few vegetable gangs floating in the pot, frowned and said: "Let people go to the city to find some mutton, how can they fight without oil and water in their stomachs?" ”

It's a wild swim.

Yang Fan had long been speechless for Qin Wei, and he couldn't figure out whether this person was a talent or a mallet.

"Isn't that right? We are here to quell the rebellion this time, and if the court knows about it, we will inevitably be impeached. ”

Qin Wei smiled and waved his hand and said, "It's okay, let's eat and drink enough first, as long as these people don't leave our sight, they won't be able to turn over the storm." ”

The rebels over there also discovered the actions of the Song army, and they also looked at the other side blankly.

Didn't you recruit An? How did I eat it again.

But when they wanted to retreat, they were desperate to find that the Song army had already formed an encirclement around them, and as soon as they left the place, two Song troops on both sides surrounded them in an angular shape.

Now they can't fight, they can't fight, they can't run, they can't run, they can only watch the Song soldiers in the distance drinking wine and eating meat.

Until late at night, the two groups were at a stalemate, and neither of them launched an offensive first.

Di Qing gradually came back to his senses, and suddenly realized: "Brother Qin, is he trying to drag down this group of rebels? ”

"Most of these people are ordinary people and disaster victims, and there will definitely be a lot of casualties if I really do it, and even if I have a meritorious role in quelling the rebellion, the court will treat me for the crime of careless disregard for human life."

Di Qing seemed to be a little disappointed and said, "So you can't fight?" ”

Qin Wei handed him a piece of lamb leg meat, and said vaguely: "It's not that you can't fight, it's that you can't do it first, even if you want to fight, you have to let those rebels attack first, and if necessary, you have to be beaten......"

Di Qing was not hypocritical, and took a hard bite and said, "Why is this?" ”

"First, let the court know that we have to do it as a last resort. Second, we must also let the people know that the court did not kill innocents indiscriminately, and these people deserve to die. ”

Yang Fan came up at some point, unceremoniously fished out a lamb chop from the pot, and first praised Qin Wei's craftsmanship before smiling with satisfaction.

"That's the attitude!"

Officials must not only have wisdom and intelligence, but also have the ability to judge the situation and have the means to gain insight into people's hearts.

Qin Wei finally smiled, looked at Di Qing and said seriously: "Yes! At any time, the posture must be correct, so that others can't find fault, even if there is a mistake, it must be forgivable to be wrong. ”

Yang Fan suddenly smiled, which made Qin Wei feel a little creepy: "Brother, what kind of eyes are these?" ”

"It's nothing, it's just a little envious of Brother Di Qing......"

Yang Fan glanced at him and sighed: "If someone can also teach like this, why would Yang be almost forty, and he would only be a six-grade person." ”

Di Qing finally understood Qin Wei's intentions for him, and his emotion was beyond words, sometimes he was very puzzled, he was just a slut who was guilty of being a slut, why was he valued?

Nothing happened overnight.

The Song army seemed to be lax, but the formation was never loose.

The rebels repeatedly tried to sneak attack, but they were forced back by the Song army.

In the morning, when Qin Wei was still asleep, Qiao Feng quietly entered the tent and whispered, "Lang Jun, someone is coming from the other side." ”

"Hmm......"

Qin Wei got up with difficulty, shook his head and said: "This can't hold on, let Yang Fan go and tell them that those requests to the imperial court can't agree, they only have two ways now, either stubbornly resist and be annihilated, or surrender on the spot, and the imperial court guarantees that they will fall lightly, at least not to their lives......"

Qiao Feng subconsciously said: "Isn't it Zhao'an?" ”

"Ass!"

Qin Wei rubbed his eyes and scolded.

"Recruit a batch today, recruit another batch tomorrow, how much food does the Great Song Dynasty have to feed these idlers? In such a move, sooner or later, the imperial court will be corroded and collapsed! ”

After saying that, he continued to fall asleep.

The rebels who were originally rushing to recruit were dumbfounded.

If they had known that the court had this attitude, they would not have obediently thrown themselves into the net if they were killed, and it would have been better to completely turn against his mother.

After two days of stalemate, some people on the rebel side gradually couldn't hold on.

These people were originally homeless criminals, and some of them hadn't even eaten for several days, and looking at the Song army on the other side, many people had the idea of surrendering.

"Dozens more people have sneaked over......"

Di Qing stared vigilantly at the rebels who were being taken in custody.

"The rout army will be defeated...... Qin Wei looked at the thick clouds at the end of the sky, and said lightly: "Tomorrow, you will take people to surrender." ”

"Me?"

Di Qing stood there a little hesitantly, and his eyes subconsciously glanced at Yang Fan.

The latter didn't understand anything, although he was unwilling, he smiled generously and said: "If you want to go, you can go, anyway, they are all the people of my palace's front division, if you can make meritorious contributions, there will be light on the face of this official." ”

That's what I said, but the credit for it was just given away, and it was fake to say that I didn't mind.

Qin Wei couldn't see it, he just patted him on the shoulder and said with a smile: "Brother Yang's friendship Qin has written it down today, and I can repay it in the future!" ”

His attitude was very sincere, Yang Fan was even a little happy, compared with the credit of counterinsurgency, it was obviously of greater practical value to be able to form a favor with Qin Wei.
