Great Wei Nengchen

After the sacrificial ceremony, the 36 elders sat down in the open space in front of the 'Chi You Tomb' and formed a circle to discuss the matter of recruiting soldiers. As important figures, Xiao Yi and Zhou Yu naturally also participated, and they also had to speak in turn , Convince these elders with the conditions they offered. According to the ancient rules, the elders all have a wooden stick in their hands. After a while, whoever thinks what is reasonable will vote for the wooden stick. The one who wins is the most primitive fair election!

Zhou Yu's usual Confucian general attire, wearing a white robe, a jade belt around his waist, and a white jade crown on his head, coupled with a face like suet and jade, is spotless, as if a fairy descended from the earth, without saying a word, this graceful demeanor is admirable up!

Looking at Xiao Yi again, it is exactly the opposite. He is dressed in a black war robe, with a wolf belt around his waist, and a three-pronged purple gold crown on his head. If it is a fairy descending from the earth, he is a bloodthirsty Shura who rushed out of hell. 'Ghost Face Xiao Lang' doesn't need love from others, he just needs to be afraid!

In addition, the two have one thing in common, they both wear swords around their waists. Today's recruiting meeting is certainly a battle of words between the two sides, but also a battle of strength. Without enough force to deter them, it is impossible to convince these treacherous elders , not to mention commanding an unruly Danyang elite army!

"General Gongjin, the guests come first and the hosts come first, please invite them first!" Xiao Yi raised his hand slightly, in a courteous gesture, but in fact he was pretending to be the master of Danyang County!

"The governor is joking. Danyang County is under the rule of Yangzhou, and the next is the 'host'. Let the governor please!" Zhou Yu naturally would not back down, and speaking of the geographical location, Danyang County is still closer to Jiangdong!

"Haha, it's true that Danyang County is under the rule of Yangzhou, but General Gongjin, don't forget that Yangzhou is also one of the thirteen prefectures of the Han Dynasty!" Xiao Yi smiled wickedly. , coercing the emperor to order the princes, this is a political advantage, and it will not work if you refuse to accept it!

626. Chapter 626 Economic Blockade

The eloquence is like a river, the tongue is like a sharp knife, and the princes are afraid when they are angry, and the world rests when they live in peace. A heated debate among people's hearts has begun!

"Elders, Danyang and Jiangdong are both under the rule of Yangzhou. The two sides face each other across the river. They share a strip of water, speak the same language, and have similar customs. After thousands of years of deduction, they are a family. Since they have the same roots, they should work together to resist foreign humiliation. This is the right location!

General Sun Bofu, brave and fierce, capable of conquering wars, commanded thousands of remnants at the age of a mere weak crown, swept the six counties of Jiangdong within a year, and defeated all princes and princes. He can be called a hero in troubled times, heroes from all over the world come to seek refuge, how can Danyang warriors be an exception, this is the main victory!

Jiangdong is rich and rich in money and food. In order to recruit warriors, he did not hesitate to spend a lot of money. Those who came to join the army were given ten catties of salt, two bolts of cloth, and ten dendrobium of corn. Privately owned, this is Li Shengya! "

I have to admit that Zhou Yu is articulate and a top-notch lobbyist. The conditions he offers for recruiting soldiers are also very generous. Being moved, some bowed their heads in thought, some whispered, and some counted on their fingers, how many young people there are in their village, and how much property they can get~~"It's really a lot of wealth!"

Of course, these people are all "cunning old wolves" in the mountains. Although they agreed in their hearts, they didn't cast the wooden sticks in their hands, and they still pretended not to care. No matter what the price is, let the two parties compete in the end, so that they can benefit from it!

The same is true for Zhou Yu. The conditions he offered were just to attract others, and he wanted to test Xiao Yi's bottom line of recruiting soldiers. He was secretly increasing the price, buying those elders, and getting this elite Danyang army into his hands. "The plan has come out." , Ghost Face Xiao Lang, it depends on how you accept the move?"

…………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………… …………

In the eyes of everyone, Xiao Yi stepped forward, without a smile on his face, and lacked etiquette when he appeared on the stage. He just sat there cross-legged, not speaking, but looked at the elders one by one. His hair was terrified, and his back felt chills, "Damn it, this one doesn't seem to be here to give gifts, but to kill someone?"

"Under the whole world, is it the land of the king, the shore of the land, and the ministers of the king... Danyang people are also the people of the Han Dynasty. It is a matter of course for the country to fight for the country. The governor came here to recruit soldiers according to the order of the court. 36 villages Mountain people, whoever dares to disobey orders and resist the power of heaven, will be killed without mercy!"

Xiao Yi's words were like a basin of cold water, which extinguished the fire of greed in people's hearts. There was no soft words, no high-ranking officials and rich salary, but only a gleaming butcher's knife, those who refused to accept - kill!

"Danyang elite soldiers, the best in the world, bold lunatics, dare to be so rude, do you really think that the steel knives in our hands are not sharp?"

"Who is the imperial court? The people of Danyang kneel down to sacrifice to Chi You, relying on their own abilities to survive, and they have never been a bird of the emperor of the Han family!"

"It's not that the imperial army has never been here before, and all of them were killed without leaving a piece of armor. The beasts in the mountains have a good appetite. If there are as many people as you come, you can eat as much as you want..."

............................................................

One stone stirred up a thousand waves, and the elders of the cottage immediately exploded. Don't look at many of them as crippled with broken legs. At this moment, they jumped three feet, hopping and yelling, saliva flying all over the sky, almost spraying on Xiao Yi's face on the nose...

But what the elders said is not bad, the Danyang people do have the capital to contend against the Han court. Over the years, the army has come to conquer several times, and they have been led by their noses in the mountains for a few times. Today they shoot a cold arrow, and tomorrow they dig a hole The trap, the trumpet blowing the day after tomorrow..., I was exhausted, coupled with the poisonous snakes and beasts in the mountains, the deep streams and cliffs, the army basically never came back, and they all became bones in the mountains. Over time, there will be lawlessness here!

Looking at Xiao Yi again, neither plague nor anger, he sat there quietly, took out a wine gourd, drank a few sips, and looked at everyone with a contemptuous look, as if it was not some village elder who was clamoring in front of him, but A group of naughty wild children, owed discipline, it's time for a few spankings!

Whether it's a quarrel or a war, both sides have to fight together. Now that the wild monkey has met the Tathagata Buddha, no matter how you do somersaults, the deity will not move, just wait for a wave of his big hand, and immediately take a sharp turn!

"Have you finished talking? Let's take a look at this thing!" The elders finished spitting, and their legs were tired. With a light smile, Xiao Yi took out a cowhide map from his pocket, and threw it out casually. This is the "Five Elements Mountain" he used to suppress monkeys! '

"Pingding Danyang County-A map of the military strategy" ~~ With this domineering name, it can deter many people, but it is a pity that 36 elders, 36 illiterates, and their domineering writing like dragons and snakes, all of them alone I don't know either!

Fortunately, Xiao Yi knew who he was dealing with. In addition to the written explanation, he also drew a detailed military map. The various arrows and lines in it were clearly marked. As long as he is not blind, he can understand it at a glance deep meaning!

"Hiss! ~~ What a powerful method, this is a desperate plan!"

"It's not just a family plan, it's to exterminate the people of Danyang and even dig up the graves of their ancestors!"

"Ghost-faced Xiao Lang, he is the reincarnation of the demon god, killing the common people, bleeding for thousands of miles..."

..................................................................

After the cowhide map was unfolded, 36 elders, 54 eyes stared at the past, don't pinch your fingers, you are right, half of the elders are 'one-eyed dragons', so there is no mistake, don't look at them, only one eye is left , but the eyes are vicious!

They naturally recognize the map of their hometown. They have lived here for generations, and the mountains, rivers and waters on it are in their hearts. Let’s compare it vividly. The valley is the ear... 36 strongholds are distributed among them, which are sharp minions, but now, there are something more around the tiger...

Citadels, bunkers, ramparts, trenches..., layer upon layer, blocking all the exits of Danyang County, it feels like a shackle is tied to the tiger, so that it can no longer show off its power and become a well-behaved tiger. kitty!

The strategy set by Xiao Yi is not complicated. In the past, when the imperial army came to conquer, they always paid attention to the word "fight", but in the end they lost troops and generals, with little effect... However, he took a slanted sword and used his strength on the word "seal". , not confronting each other head-on, but killing people with soft knives without seeing blood!

Use bunkers and ditches to form a dense blockade line to prevent a grain of grain, a piece of salt, and a piece of iron from flowing into Danyang County. Of course, the mountain people inside will never want to escape, completely isolate it, and slowly kill it... ...This method was created by a bald man. It seems a little clumsy, but it is absolutely practical!

The folks in Danyang County are tough, but they are also extremely barren, so they have to go out to plunder. If they are really besieged layer upon layer, there is no need to fight at all. In three years, the mountain people have to rely on drinking animal blood to supplement their salt. In a few years, all kinds of iron tools have to be worn out, and they can only fight with wild animals with wooden sticks, slash and burn, and drink blood with their hair... They have completely returned to the ancient times. If that is the case, it can be said that "life is better than death!" '

Thinking of the terrible consequences, the elders turned pale with fright, and many of them trembled, but Xiao Yi didn't intend to let these people go, and punched their fragile hearts hard!

"Relying on mountains to eat mountains, relying on water to eat water, most of the daily necessities of Danyang people are obtained from hundreds of thousands of mountains. If the governor is in golden autumn and October, when the sky is dry and everything is dry, he will send a small group of elite soldiers to set fire in the mountains and kill the birds. Beasts, trees, grass... burn them all, can you still hunt for food?

In addition, there are many mountains and little water in Danyang County, as long as you throw sick and dead livestock in various springs and rivers to spread the plague, what will you do at that time? "Xiao Yi didn't talk much, but every word was serious. If he really did it, he would definitely create a no-man's land!"

"Tick! Tick! Tick!"

Beads of sweat flowed, and the elders of the cottage were all frightened. The army blocked the outside, set fire to the mountain inside, and polluted the precious water source. How many of the [-] people in Danyang County survived? I can hide in a cave and be a savage!

"Ghost-faced Xiao Lang, you are not a human, you are a demon who escaped from hell!"

627. Chapter 627 Chi You Reincarnated

"The governor of the capital is merciful, let the people of Danyang survive, thank you Dade!"

"The superintendent's supernatural power is overwhelming, 36 villages are convinced, and never dare to rebel again!"

"Whooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo...

............................................................

At the meeting, the 36 village elders all bowed and saluted. The ruthless methods of the governor were really frightening... As for the map, after several twists and turns, it fell into the hands of Zhou Yu. Haojie is also dumbfounded~~

"Ghost-faced Xiao Lang, he uses three tricks in one step, and breaks people's hearts. He is superior to me in military strategy and planning!" Zhou Yu is also a commander-in-chief, so he can see the power of this 'economic blockade'. He even intends to imitate one or two, strangling the throat of Danyang County, and forcing the elders to submit, but after thinking about it, he gave up again!

All things are born, and one thing falls one thing. Although this "economic blockade" is powerful, there must be a way to break it. Since people dare to talk about the strategy on the bright side, they are naturally prepared to do it later. If I rashly learn to walk in Handan , I'm afraid that if the fox can't hit it, it will be full of coquettishness, it's not worth it!

Besides, if you want to really conquer the hearts of the people, you must be afraid of power and be virtuous, and use both approaches. Now that Xiao Yi's prestige has gained, the people of Danyang are also scared to death, but after all, there is resentment in their hearts. Over time, civil strife will inevitably arise. When the time came, he would be fanning the flames, so he might not be able to turn defeat into victory. Zhou Yu made some plans in his heart and showed a smile, but soon, he couldn't laugh anymore!

"The soldiers served the country, and the blood stained the battlefield. Naturally, the governor will not treat them badly. Anyone who joins the army will be given ten catties of refined salt, five bolts of linen, and twenty dendrobium of corn. They will be used as soldiers to settle down in their homes and go to the army in the future." On the battlefield, behead an enemy, reward hardware, behead an enemy general, be promoted to three ranks, whether you can get promoted and get rich, and have a rich future, depends on how capable the lads are!"

Under the sweet bait there must be dead fish, under the heavy reward there must be a brave man, everyone values ​​fame and fortune... Xiao Yi has led the army for many years, so he naturally understands how to stimulate the fighting spirit of the soldiers, so he directly offered double the price, and if you don't believe it, you will be impressed Can't get people's hearts!

"When the soldiers go abroad, their clothes and food are supplied by the state, and there will never be any shortage. However, their wives and children are starving in the mountains. How can the governor feel at ease? Let's let The Xuzhou gentry organized a caravan to bring in the refined salt, cloth, and ironware needed by the mountain people every month, and it didn’t cost money, just barter directly!”

Speaking of which, Xiao Yi took out a seven-leaf clover from his bosom, and waved it to everyone, "Danyang County's [-] mountains are rich in all kinds of precious medicinal herbs. You can collect a lot, or even plant them yourself, in exchange for the life you need Materials, within a few years, life will improve greatly, and the relatives are safe, so that the soldiers can rest assured to kill the enemy and make achievements!"
