Chapter 1826: Want to slay the dragon
“Sir, this is the newly discovered list of hidden emperors.” Wei Zhuang said.
Jia Xu took the list from Wei Zhuang. After looking at it, his pupils shrank suddenly, and then he sneered: "Dance, jump out one by one. The more you dance now, the more miserable your death will be."
"Sir, in five days at most, the Tang army will be approaching the city. In order to prevent the rebels in the city from causing chaos and getting out of control, should we first capture some of the people in important positions?" Ge Nie asked.
Jia Xu thought for a while, then shook his head and said: "Hold on, there are still big fish that haven't jumped out, what I want is to catch all these people in one catch.
However, for the sake of caution, we can first use the name of military control to control all the imperialists who hold military power in the new army, or those who are suspected of being imperialists.
Would rather kill a hundred by mistake than let one go. "
)
Kong Rong, Ma Rixi, Yang Jun and other imperialists were not fools. Of course they knew that they could not do anything without military power. However, the main force of the Qin army was also blinded by the military power. They had no chance to make a move, so they could only Reach out into the weakest new army.
The New Army has just been established, and there are a large number of vacant positions of real power. As long as someone in the imperial party can get a high position, they can control part of the military power, and there will be no resistance in Luoyang.
Jia Xu naturally knows everything about the imperial party's thoughts, and it is very simple to crack it. He only needs to screen the middle and high-level people one by one, find out who is an imperial party member, and then remove them from office. Naturally, he can eliminate the imperial party members. strength.
However, the composition of the new army is too mixed, and there are too many people who need to be screened. Even if Jin Yiwei works overtime, it will not be completed in a short while, and Jia Xu obviously does not have that much time now.
Li Tang's army was about to approach the city, and the imperial party finally couldn't stand it any longer and began to frequently contact the generals of the new army.
They thought they were being cautious, but they didn’t know that Jia Xu’s back feet had already known it as soon as their front feet touched each other.
Jia Xu has already discovered most of the imperialists hidden in the new army. In addition, Jia Xu has also discovered most of the imperialists in the integrated army.
In order to control the military power, the imperialists did not hesitate to risk exposure and extend their hands into the new army. Naturally, it was impossible not to win over the local aristocratic families in Luoyang.
Hence, Jia Xu could guess without even thinking that there must be a large number of imperialists among the aristocratic family’s integrated army.
The Qin Army's review of the new army is still very strict, so the imperial party can only control some high-ranking positions, but it has no control over the integrated army of 5,000 aristocratic families. It is conceivable to what extent it will be infiltrated by the imperial party.
It was precisely because he knew that many aristocratic families in Luoyang were leaning towards the imperial party that Jia Xu deliberately recruited all the soldiers of the aristocratic families. After all, it was better to keep them around and restrain them than to ignore them.
To deal with the imperialists in the new army, we only need to dismiss them and imprison them to ensure that the new army does not become chaotic. However, this method is obviously not suitable for dealing with the integrated army of aristocratic families. After all, the integrated army of aristocratic families is not owned by the Qin army. The army only has the power of command but no power of appointment or dismissal.
In addition, the composition of the family integration army is too complicated, with people from all major families, and it is impossible to tell who is the enemy and who is the friend.
Therefore, Jia Xu's purpose of gathering them from the beginning was to imprison them and thereby weaken the imperial party's strength.
"Sir, we can currently confirm that there are thirty-eight families who are interested in our Qin Army and have nothing to do with the Imperial Party. As for the other twenty-six families, they are more or less suspected of being Imperial Party members. It is difficult to find out at once. "Gai Niehui reported.
“There is no need to check clearly.”
Jia Xu knew that this was the imperialist party trying to confuse him, so he asked directly: "What percentage of the soldiers of the clans suspected of the imperialist party accounted for in the army?"
"this…"
After Genie was silent for a moment, he replied: "Nearly 60%." What is the concept of 60%? In other words, among the five thousand generations of family soldiers integrated into the army, nearly 3,000 people may be members of the imperial party. This ratio is much more terrifying than that of the new army.
“Sixty percent?”
A solemn look flashed in Jia Xu's eyes. After a moment of reflection, he said: "Immediately divide the integrated army of the family into two. The three thousand troops suspected of being imperialists confiscated their weapons in the name of training and sent them to the new military camp." Conduct training, and then send Qin Liang to lead a thousand main troops to strictly guard the new barracks.
The situation in Luoyang is so weird now that even I can't tell who is rebellious and who is loyal, but what I can determine is that rebellious people must be among these people.
Some of these three thousand people will definitely make trouble, or even attack the camp. When the time comes, they will be counted one by one and wiped out. They are all rebels.
Of course, there must be many innocent people among these three thousand soldiers, but now we can't care about so many. We would rather kill a thousand by mistake than let one go. "
After hearing Jia Xu’s murderous words, Gai Nie and Wei Zhuang said in unison: “No.”
"Sir, there is something unclear about this subordinate." Dugu Qiubai stood up and asked with cupped fists.
"explain."
"My lord has made so many arrangements, but they are all preemptive moves. According to the intelligence we currently have, we can take the initiative and catch all the rebels in one fell swoop. Even if there are some fish that slip through the net, it will not matter at all to the overall situation. "
Dugu Qiubai's words can be said to have revealed the doubts in everyone's mind. Their leader Jia Xu is not a passive defensive person.
Now that the overall situation is under control, all measures are aimed at prevention rather than eradication. This is not Jia Xu's style.
“Haha, I finally asked. I’ve been holding it in for so long, so I’m exhausted.” Jia Xu asked with a smile.
“I don’t dare, please ask your Majesty to clarify my doubts.”
Dugu Qiubai said lightly, even when facing Jia Xu, he was as cold as ever.
“As I said before, the reason why we delayed closing the net was because we were afraid of disturbing the public.”
Jia Xu's eyes flashed, and he sneered: "The bigger fish hasn't surfaced yet. Just wait. I have a hunch in my heart that he will almost be unable to bear it anymore."
Jia Xu has fought against the Imperial Party not once or twice. In his opinion, the Imperial Party is a group of rabble with no loyalty but no program and policy. It is not difficult for him to defeat such opponents.
But this time the Imperial Party was completely different. The goal was clear, the execution was rapid, and the timing was perfect. It was like rising from the ashes.
Therefore, Jia Xu can almost conclude that there must be an expert behind the scenes to give advice to the Imperial Party, otherwise the changes in the Imperial Party would never have been so great, and this expert is still hidden very deeply, even Li Shimin, Kong Rong and others may not be able to Not aware of his existence.
This is a master.
Jia Xu secretly thought, not only was there no fear in his heart, but he also had a long-lost fighting spirit.
What does it mean to slaughter a flock of lambs? Only dragon slaying can prove Jia Wenhe's ability.
The first update is here... There have been some glitches recently. This plot involves a coup. Liu Xiang is not good at writing this, so the writing is a bit slow. Please forgive me.
