"They were just two or three hundred years ago, and they were the kind of barbarians who drank blood, and they couldn't even use fire. But now, compared to the thousands of years of culture of our Han people, they are far behind, but if they are given thousands of years, what will happen?" Kong Liang asked Ji Xin rhetorically.

"And then, because of this, I, the great general, ought to indulge them, to kill the people, to slaughter my own people? My conscience tells me that I will not allow this. Ji Xinyi said in a righteous manner.

"Why don't you have a conscience, a hero? Although I, a sour literati, don't I have a conscience? Will I watch them slaughter my own people and be at peace?" Kong Liang asked Ji Xin.

"Say, what do you have in mind, why do you have to spare this big circle for me every time?" Ji Xin smiled.

"Actually, the idea is very simple, and it's on you, it's just that you don't pay attention to the idea. Kong Liang fiddled with the walnut beads and laughed with Ji Xin.

Ji Xin rolled his eyes, shook his right wrist, pinched out a chestnut in his fingers, and looked at Kong Liang's head.

"I said, I said it can't be done! Although we are under the banner of Helianguang, we are just a wild road after all, we must pay attention to the word 'letter', and this word 'letter' is not your name? Isn't it just by your side?" Kong Liang said.

"But how can you believe it? You can send the Buddha to the west and tell your plan in one breath. Ji Xin said.

Let me tell you another story, which is true and gives you an idea of the power of faith. Kong Liang fiddled with the beads, and then opened his mouth:

"During the Warring States period of Qin Xiaogong, when Shang Ying changed the law to become strong, Shang Ying drafted a reform decree at that time, but he was afraid that the people would not trust him and did not follow the new decree. So he first ordered a log three feet high to be erected at the south gate of the capital, and gave an order: 'Whoever can carry this log to the north gate will be rewarded with ten taels of gold.' ’

After a while, a large number of people gathered at the south gate, and everyone was talking. Some said: 'Anyone can hold this log, where can I use the ten taels of bounty?' and some said: 'This is probably Zuo Shu Changcheng's joke.' 'Look at me, everyone, I look at you, but no one dares to go up and carry the wood.' ”

Shang Ying knew that the common people still did not believe his order, so he raised the bounty to fifty taels. I didn't expect that the higher the bounty, the more unreasonable the people who watched the excitement felt, and still no one dared to carry it. ”

"While everyone was talking, one of the people in the crowd came out and said, 'I'll try it.'" As he spoke, he really picked up the wood and walked away, all the way to the north gate. Shang Ying immediately sent someone to spread the word, rewarding the man who carried the wood with fifty taels of yellow and clear gold, not a penny.

This matter immediately spread, and it caused a sensation in the Qin State at once. The common people said, 'The order of the chief is not ambiguous. This event made a generation of reformers Shang Ying, and also left an allusion - standing wood for faith. ”

After speaking, Kong Liang stopped playing with the beads in his hand and looked at Ji Xin.

Ji Xin really listened to it with relish, perhaps, he already knew what to do.

"Now, the problem we are facing is that the soldiers' military discipline is poor, the people's distrust of us, military discipline, can be forged by blood, but the trust of the people, then it depends on the heart, on our sincerity. Is that so?" Ji Xin asked Kong Liang.

"Your so-called people are not as simple as you think, people are like that, they have a selfish nature, and they are greedy, which cannot be compared with any animal in this world, because people will never be satisfied. Just relying on our hot faces and cold butts, then we are passive, and we are serving a group of masters. There is also military discipline, military discipline does not only need blood to forge, just like steel is tempered by fire and sharp cooling, so it is not afraid of any hardness. Therefore, whether it is military discipline or the trust of the people, carrots and sticks are always used together, and without either one, things cannot be accomplished. Kong Liang said.

"Brother, what you say, we are enlightened, and I don't know where you learned so many ghost ideas, hahahaha. Ji Xin went up and gave Kong Liang a chestnut.

"Hey, that's not a ghost idea, that's the avenue. I've told you so much, why are you still beating me? Kong Liang was very dissatisfied.

"Hahaha, isn't it used to it, if I don't beat you, I always feel that next time you won't have so many good ideas. Ji Xin dodged away.

······

In front of the General's Mansion, there is a large open space

Once, it was the largest sheepfold in the walled city, where all the sheep of the Wang family were raised.

However, those sheep had already been made into air-dried mutton by Ji Xin as dry food and distributed to the soldiers under his command.

Now, an execution ground has been built here, on which several strong men with ghost-headed broadswords are standing.

However, at the back of the execution ground, on the head of the iron spear called the Harasulu ingot, there was clearly a large banner with the word "recruitment" written on it.

Now all the herdsmen have gathered here, all of them, whether they want to come or not, anyway, as long as they are under the rule of the Wang family, and the herdsmen who have not yet escaped, they have all come.

Of course, where to put the weapons in the hands of the soldiers, they do not have a second option, or rather, the second option, which is unacceptable to them.

That's why they're all here.

"The general has arrived!!"

A shout came, followed by Ji Xin, who was dressed in armor, wearing a red cloak, and cowhide riding boots, striding towards the rainbow sword.

Because all the people he came into contact with were Hu people, so, at the suggestion of Han Nai, Ji Xin put down the bundled crown hair, and the hair was tied behind, not to mention, it may be that he has been in the Northern Regions for a long time, and Ji Xin really has the momentum of the Hu people.

He was so easy that those herdsmen were immediately less wary when they saw that this Han general was also in their attire, and he might be the same person as them.

"General Ben has long heard that there are several arrogant people under his command who oppress the people of our Eternal Fire Khan, which is not allowed under the rule of the Khan. Today, General Ben specially invited the people who have been wronged to set up the most just Xingchang for you, and if you see the drum, if you are wronged, you will go to beat the drum and sound the grievances. As long as this general is verified, he will definitely give you the fairest answer. Ji Xin pointed to the cowhide drum at the door of the mansion and said.

But Ji Xin's words were like salt sprinkled into the lake, and the smell of fart was not stimulated at all.

Ji Xin seemed to have expected this a long time ago, and he looked at Hanai.

Hanai rebuked and waved his hand.

I saw that the three soldiers were escorted to the execution platform and pressed under the executioner's ghost's big knife.

Hanai pulled out the Mongolian scimitar at his waist and pointed at the three of them: "Tell the people under the rule of the Khan of Eternal Fire what you have done!!"

The three soldiers shuddered, and their mouths trembled as they looked at the glittering Mongolian scimitar in Hanai's hand······
