Chapter 1193 The plan is to poison again, but it has no scruples
After listening to Cai Jing's long voice, Gao Qiu was very puzzled and asked: "The officials mistakenly believed in Xiao Tang's rebellious traitor and taught him to be a meritorious minister and receive a great gift from the imperial court. This is already a disaster.
Keeping him in Bianjing is tantamount to teaching tigers and wolves to lurk in the capital. How can we feel at ease? What's more, Wu Song and the minister had a grudge for killing their son, but why didn't they kill the murderer earlier and report it to the court?
Do you know about the search for Xiao Tang and his evil henchmen?"
After catching his enemy's fatal clue, he was shocked to find that Xiao Tang had been tangled among the people for several years with the Green Forest Army fighting against the imperial court. Naturally, Gao Qiu was impatient and immediately used the Bianjing Forbidden Army to general Xiao Tang and his men.
Suppression and arrest. Even if the dynasty did not kill scholar-bureaucrats since the Song Dynasty, the punishment of civil and military officials was relatively loose according to the law. However, once it involves the serious crime of rebellion, it is very possible to sentence Xiao Tang to Ling Chi and behead him. Gao Qiu thought that he could see Xiao
Tang was now doing his own evil, and he was looking forward to watching him lose power and die miserably in order to vent his hatred.
Compared with the ferocious look on Gao Qiu's face, Cai Jing's expression was still very calm, but there was a hidden light in his eyes, which seemed particularly unfathomable. He also said: "Then Xiao Tang had already reacted a few years ago.
Heart, connecting the thieves and bandits from all over the country has been planning for a long time. Not only Xiao Tang and his gang members in the capital, but also the thieves and bandits he supported in the name of Quan Yu are all rebels. From what I think, the instructor's family is the only one who has passed the order to eliminate the people in the capital.
Xiao Tang and others waited for them. Those who gathered in the mountains and fields roared, but the rest of the bandit gangs were not wiped out, which eventually caused great trouble. However, the officers and soldiers in various states in Jingdong and Hebei were defeated one after another. Without heavy troops, they could not wipe out those few crazy bandits. And the thieves
The convict Wu Song had fled with Xiao Tang, and had killed someone in Damingfu Changjie, so he had some reputation among the people. The two had also become sworn sworn friends. If Xiao Tang could be taught to go to Hangzhou to supervise the execution of Wu Song in person...
.... What would those rebels think if they knew that Xiao Tang was trying to clear up his relationship with Wu Song without raising any suspicion in the court, and even saw him die piecemeal?
Most of the grass bandits who hang out in the green forest are stupid people who use force to break the ban and only rely on their own blood. They don't care about the loyalty of the world. Seeing Xiao Tang ruthlessly killing the murderer Wu Song who had an sworn relationship with him in order to protect himself from being exposed.
Teach that boy to be alienated from the bandits in the mountains, and it is very likely that the thieves gathered by Xiao Tang will be scattered, and the Taiwei and the Prime Minister will be in charge of the imperial army inside and outside Bianjing, and Xiao Tang will not know it at this time.
When the crime of treason was discovered, he tried to clear out the rebel gangsters who colluded with him. By the time he was shocked and realized that the imperial court had dispatched officers and soldiers to arrest him and put him in prison, it was already too late. At that time, Xiao Tang would be captured first, and then he would beg the bandits and beg the imperial court to send a large army.
Recommend good generals and lead elite cavalry soldiers to exterminate the stubborn bandits, but the few grass bandits are already leaderless. It will not be difficult to clear the stronghold by then and avoid the bandits."
Cai Jing, Tong Guan, and Gao Qiu were all competing against each other, they were all powerful traitors. After hearing what Cai Jing said, Tong Guan and Gao Qiu immediately thought that even if they could quickly move the officials and issue an imperial edict to arrest them,
He rebelled against Xiao Tang, but there were still several strong bandits in various places who wanted to fight against the imperial court. Xiao Tang was obviously an important minister of the imperial court, but he had the ability to convince several mountains of thieves to defect to him and commit major rebellions, which also shows that he had great influence in the world.
The fame and popularity of Zhongzhong should not be underestimated. Now it is easy to suppress Xiao Tang, but the few who followed him are enough to cause earth-shaking commotion in Hebei and Jingdong. The green forest soldiers and horses will most likely rise up immediately and openly invade the state and seize the state.
The county people fought to the death with the imperial court.
However, Cai Jing planned to use Xiao Tang's hand to kill the enemy Wu Song who killed his son Cai Jun. He first aroused the hearts of the rebels, then cut off Xiao Tang's wings step by step and captured him in one fell swoop.
In response to the situation, the officials were asked to order the army to attack the mountain bandits. Although the bandits were powerful, there should be many bandits among them who no longer intended to die for Xiao Tang and would not kill them in that situation.
If those thieves were caught off guard, why worry about the crazy bandits not being wiped out by the imperial army!?
Tong Guan sorted out his thoughts in his mind. When he looked at Cai Jing who looked calm, he couldn't help but think that although Cai Gongxiang was a civil servant with great power in the court, he didn't bother to accumulate merits through military campaigns and discuss marching strategies.
He is not as good as me in arranging troops and formations, but he is very capable in planning and planning. He is indeed very sophisticated and sinister in his skills!
After thinking about it in his mind, Tong Guan, a powerful official who had accumulated many achievements in the Southern and Northern Wars, also nodded repeatedly, and there was a hint of gearing up in his words: "This is a great plan! Such an arrangement can disturb the morale of the thieves and soldiers."
, so as to prevent future troubles. When the time comes to raise troops to attack the thieves who follow Xiao Tang and others, a certain family is also willing to do their best for the court and eliminate the troubles that are close to the country. I will live up to the great kindness of the Holy One!"
Gao Qiu listened, although he knew that in terms of leading troops in war, he was far inferior to Tong Guan, who had been fighting in the side court for decades, but now once Xiao Tang's rebellion was exposed, the groups he had secretly supported would have
In the eyes of the imperial court, the mountain bandits who were difficult to eradicate were even more of a disaster than those of Zhang Di in Hebei and Tian Hu in Hedong. They once again mobilized the army to attack prepared and unprepared, and the odds of success were high. Xiao Tang could be eliminated with his own hands.
Lin Chong can still please the officials by waiting for the disaster that he must eliminate quickly. The Taiwei, the head of the martial arts palace, will be rewarded with a title and a generous salary... Why can't I lead the army and go to conquer it?
Stubborn thieves? After thinking about it, Gao Qiu then said: "It's not just Gao's boasting. If the imperial court is willing to allow Gao Qiu to lead the troops to fight in person, the crazy bandits who have joined Xiao Tang and rebelled against the thieves can also give a shout-out."
It’s okay.”
As for how to conquer the strong bandits under Xiao Tang's command afterwards, Cai Jing had already set up a poisonous plan, but Cai Jing, who was not very concerned about military matters, just said lightly: "The Prime Minister has read military books and knows the strategy well.
With a good strategy, it should be easy to capture the stubborn bandits. If the Taiwei dispatches the country's good generals to take advantage of the situation to conquer several mountain bandits, he can achieve great success. It's just that he dispatches many troops who have made great contributions to the country. There is no need to rush into matters such as selecting generals.
...The evil bandit Wu Song killed my child. If he wanted to be escorted to Bianjing for torture, he would probably go to places where strongmen were infested along the way. Zhu Tiju from the south of the Yangtze River also rushed to Hangzhou and mobilized heavy troops to take precautions to prevent the death row prisoner Wu Song from being accidentally killed.
The thieves rescued me... I will go to the Holy One and tell the story to Xiao Tang, who had to go to Hangzhou to avoid suspicion, and personally executed the death row prisoner who was sworn to him in public in public."
Cai Jingfang said that he thought that if Xiao Tang couldn't bear it, he would have to go to Hangzhou according to the official order. Even though it was now known that Xiao Tang intended to rebel, Cai Jing didn't even know whether he would
The possibility of launching a mutiny in Bianjing has also been considered. There are Tong Guan and Gao Qiu in Bianliang, Tokyo. Most of the green forest troops Xiao Tang secretly gathered are concentrated in Hebei and Shandong. It is impossible to succeed in the capital.
.Now that Xiao Tang still wants to return to Bianjing despite the great danger, it also shows that he still wants to conceal his evil intentions in the court.
And Cai Jing thought that Xiao Tang didn't know that the treasonous activities he had done secretly over the years had taught him to see through them, and since Xiao Tang still wanted to hang out in the court, his sworn brother Wu Song dared to kill his own child and commit a heinous crime.
For a murder case, it is common sense to ask the officials to order Xiao Tang to go to jail and kill his old friend in person, and to clear up the relationship, which on the surface can calm his resentment of cherishing his beloved son. As far as the public is concerned, Cai Jing has been thinking more than
Teach Xiao Tang that he will never recover, and he can also use this to attack the rebel soldiers who followed him to fight against the imperial court, but Xiao Tang had to follow his arrangements step by step; from the perspective of personal hatred, Cai Jing
He resented the death of his two sons, Cai Chi and Cai Yun, because of Xiao Tang and Wu Song. If Xiao Tang could be taught to personally order the execution of his sworn brothers, and then let this kid realize that no matter how much he planned to protect himself, he would not be able to escape.
The imperial court executed him for treason... Although Cai Jing's hands were not stained with the blood of his enemies through this arrangement, for him, this was the most perfect revenge.
It's just that although Cai Jing planned very carefully, he only knew that Xiao Tang had the intention to rebel, but he didn't understand at all why the traitor who was so important to the government decided to rebel. So there is one thing, no matter how ruthless Cai Jing's machinations are.
What he didn't expect was that Xiao Tang was already preparing to betray the imperial court and start an open uprising...
