The faceless man shook his head: "It is impossible to win the hearts of the people by massacre. You can never maintain long-term peace and stability by relying on violence. Once your absolute violence disappears, you will face a counterattack. After the Suzaku is eliminated, the Jin Dynasty will definitely send out troops to pacify it. Even the civil war in Changdao can be postponed. Do you have the confidence to defeat the powerful enemy without relying on local people's support?"
Sun En gritted his teeth: "I am not someone who is easy to kill. It's just that the tenant farmers in Wudi hate these wealthy families and have oppressed them for hundreds of years. Their anger is like a huge wave and is unstoppable. I just comply with their wishes."
The faceless man sneered and said: "Do the tenants of Wu's farm hate them, or do local tycoons like Shen Mufu hate them? What I saw was that the tenants of the Xie family manor mostly followed their old masters here. In Kuaiji City, if you massacre and plunder, you will be destroyed. Now many of your subordinates are robbing and killing people in the name of revenge. Without rules and military discipline, they will become a bunch of wild beasts running rampant in the world. Do you want to Is it heaven or hell?"
Sun En was speechless for a moment, and Lu Xun spoke at the side: "When we started the army, we couldn't do without the support of the local tycoons. We couldn't stop their hatred of the aristocratic families. There are some things that we have to do. Over the past hundred years, Grudges will always break out, but what you said makes sense. If you want to rule Wudi for a long time in the future, you need to win the hearts of the people. It not only needs the hearts of these rich people, but also the hearts of those who still care about the aristocratic family. We can also give them the same small favors as the aristocratic families do, or even give them more and better."
The faceless man said coldly: "Then you can't kill scholars indiscriminately. You can kill black-handed giants like Wang Ningzhi and big families, but women like Mrs. Xie and ordinary scholars from small and medium-sized families , as well as those villagers and tenants who follow the Xie family, if you continue to kill them, you will only lose the hearts of the people and become the public enemy of the world."
Xu Daofu said coldly: "We don't have to kill them, but Shanyin is the county seat of Kuaiji. Most of the aristocratic families in Wu live here, and they have the wealth and anointing they have collected over the past hundred years. Along the way, those local tycoons and wealthy people in Wu live here. Ordinary people have been clamoring to break Shanyin and loot for ten days every day. If we tell them now that they are not allowed to enter the city after breaking it, wouldn't it make the mice drool while looking at the rice warehouse?"
The faceless man smiled slightly: "You can say that Wang Ningzhi cast a spell in the city. Although the ghost soldiers are useless, the city is filled with Yin Qi, and those who trespass will die violently. You are the best at this set of magic tricks. Three days later , just let them enter the city, and when the time comes, the people in the city can also move out. As your tribe, you can take whatever property is left in the city as you wish."
Sun En frowned: "In three days, can you transport away all the century-old treasures left by Suzaku?"
The faceless man said calmly: "I'll leave those who are unlucky to you. It's okay. I only need three days. Also, Mrs. Xie and other scholars from small and medium-sized families, as well as the people in the city, you are not allowed to kill them at will." Kill, otherwise, after this time, I will also cooperate with the Beifu Army to eliminate you."
Sun En's expression changed, and Lu Xun quickly said: "Since our leader has promised you, he will not break his promise. However, I hope that our cooperation this time is just the beginning, and we can continue to have opportunities to cooperate in the future. It is the right time for the divine religion to raise troops."
In order to eliminate evil spirits, we don’t want to be enemies with all the aristocratic families. As long as you don’t imitate the mafia and want to eliminate the divine religion, then we can coexist.”
The faceless man nodded: "Then it's a deal, remember your promise, I'll wait for you in Kuaiji."
He said, turned around and left, his black robe billowing in the wind, and his figure disappearing outside the tent door like a ghost.
Xu Daofu said bitterly: "Brother, don't listen to him. We can do whatever we want to conquer Shanyin. We can't just talk about restraining those local tycoons in Wu and the thugs who are so greedy for killing and eating human flesh.
thing."
Lu Xun shook his head: "What this person said makes sense. If we slaughter the city and rob it, although it will be satisfying for a while, it will also make other people in other areas that we want to capture in the future be in danger and fight to the death. The wish of our divine religion is to capture
The whole world is not satisfied with separatist rule in Wu. If you slaughter Kuaiji today and attack Jiankang tomorrow, you may pay a hundred times the price. Those aristocratic families in Jiankang City will definitely fight back with all their strength, even with Huan Xuan of Jingzhou.
It is inevitable to temporarily reconcile and send Beifu soldiers to deal with us."
Sun En sneered and said: "If we keep these scholars, they won't be of the same mind as us. Is it possible that we should let them go?"
Lu Xun nodded: "It may not be a bad thing to let them go. They have lost their manors and land deeds. They will definitely bring in reinforcements when they go back, but they are reluctant to give away all these manors, so they will continue to quarrel with the aristocratic families in Jiankang City."
For a period of time, we just took advantage of this time to reorganize and digest the newly occupied land, and select available people from among the strong to form an army. After all, immortals use it once and less once, and our pills are almost used up, and there are
There are less than eight thousand pills, so you have to use them sparingly."
Sun En said bitterly: "What do those guys in Danlu do for food? It has been half a year and they still can't figure out the formula of these pills."
Lu Xun sighed: "There are hundreds of medicinal materials used in Wushi Powder, and after mixing several kinds, the shape and smell will change, which is extremely difficult to distinguish. There is a difference between adding it first and then adding it, and frying it first and then frying it.
Once you know the formula, if you don't know the temperature and amount of the medicine, it will be difficult to achieve the desired effect. The faceless man said that there is a way to make Suzaku's medicine ineffective, and I am afraid that he did it in this regard. Even Suzaku, who knew the formula of the medicine,
They all plot it, so how can we imitate it so easily?"
Xu Daofu sneered and said: "Qinglong had no good intentions when he gave us these medicines. He would not let us produce the pills ourselves and pose a threat to him. In the long run, we have to use our own strength, that is
Our fanatical believers, elite warriors and mecha wooden men. Of course, the most powerful thing is the art of war and tactics."
Lu Xun smiled and patted Xu Daofu on the shoulder: "The eldest and second brothers are not good at fighting, but you are not good at decision-making and strategy. Third brother, it takes time to build a strong army. What we have to do now is to fight for time. Those who are left
Don't use the pills unless absolutely necessary. After capturing Kuaiji, you must find a way to train an elite army as quickly as possible that can compete with the Beifu army."
Xu Daofu smiled and clapped his hands and said: "I can't wait to compete with Liu Yu on the battlefield. However, let's take Shanyin City first."
Sun En stood up, a cold light flashed in his eyes: "Beat the drums and gather the generals. Tomorrow, march to Shanyin and kill Suzaku!"
