Chapter 313: coerce public opinion
Chapter 313 Coercing public opinion
"Let them open the city and release people!" The Lord of the Wang Clan gritted his teeth, and he did not forget to tell his staff, "Tell them, when the excuse is made, each city must send heavy troops to firmly guard the city gates and the streets in the city, and never let them Xie's and Ye's troops stay in the city or within 20 li of the city gate!"
The staff repeatedly said yes, and seeing that the Lord of the Wang family had nothing to say, he began to write official documents.
Unexpectedly, just halfway through his writing, the lord of the Wang family added another sentence, "Those people who have been bewitched by Mrs. Ye, don't let them follow the team of Mrs. Ye and Mrs. Xie. Remember, let them focus on appeasement." , and must not arouse public resentment."
During the drought, the Han family did not provide relief to the victims, and allowed many people under their rule to be homeless and displaced. In the end, the Ye family picked up a big bargain, which sounded the alarm for all the surrounding rebel forces.
As long as the Ye family is mentioned now, the first thing everyone worries about is that they will go to their own territory to deceive people and pry away their own population resources.
Because of this fear of Ye Shi, the rebel forces of all parties not only strictly defend Ye Shi, but also have subtle changes in their attitudes towards the common people under their rule.
Although this change will not allow them to surpass Ye Shi and become the number one in the hearts of the common people, at the very least, the lives of the people under their rule have more or less improved compared to before.
Like this time when the people of the Wang family followed the Ye family army to "make trouble", the Lord of the Wang family did not show the superior attitude he used to treat the common people.
He didn't think about how to punish these "troubleshooting" common people, but let them go gently.
This change made him and his confidants very uncomfortable, but the power of the word "Ye's" is too scary. They don't want to make life difficult for the common people under their own rule, and someday in the future, they will also be like Han. Ye Anlan suddenly framed her once like that.
Thanks to the lord of the Wang family who is knowledgeable enough, Ye Anlan's plan to march in a straight line succeeded.
And what makes Ye Anlan most happy is that, except for the first city, she used the method of inciting (hiring) the people, and the next few cities, the Wang family took the initiative to open the city gates to let them pass.
She saves trouble and money (*^▽^*)
Of course, the most important thing is that although they were often stared at as imaginary enemies during the period, and they were also stabbed behind the back by officials and generals of the Wang family, they managed to save a full seven days.
Exchanging a total of more than one thousand taels of spare banknotes for seven days, Ye Anlan felt that he couldn't have done a better deal.
Not to mention how much food and grass their overly large team can save to supply the Dingbei Army during these seven days, just say how much Dingbei Army will spare their lives to defend their home and country if they delay for another seven days Dahao Erlang died under the knife of a barbarian?
Human life is priceless, especially people like the soldiers of the Dingbei Army.
As for offending Mrs. Wang, well, anyway, sooner or later, Mrs. Xie's territory will be eaten up by Mrs. Xie. If they offend, they will be offended.
Speaking of this, I have to talk about the fact that Wang, Liu, and Jiang dismissed Bai Qingzhi, commander of the Dingbei Army, as a beggar.
Because of their lack of a sense of the overall situation, Xie Yuan first wrote a letter to encourage Ye Anlan to attack the Jiang family. After being rejected by Ye Anlan, he said that he would change his expansion strategy in the coming year.
He is not going south anymore, he wants to swallow the three houses in the northwest and due north of his site first. He wanted to ensure that there were no more obstacles between himself and the Dingbei Army, and he wanted to create a military transportation route that could lead directly to the northern border.
After receiving the letter, Ye Anlan wrote back and praised him greatly, but his subordinates were so tormented by Xie Yuan's fickleness that they wished they could hit him directly, and splatter blood three feet and die for their careless lord. Advise.
War is no child's play. Who to fight and how to fight require a lot of preparation in advance.
In order to continue marching south in the coming year, the counselors and generals under Xie Yuan's command stayed up for countless nights, and their hair became gray and lost.
Now that Xie Yuan said "go north", all the plans they had worked so hard to make before had to be completely overturned, and then on the basis of Xie Yuan's "go north", they had to go through all the sleepless nights and rack their brains all over again. .
Is this what people do? Can't we show some sympathy to the subordinates who are about to age prematurely and become bald in their prime due to overwork? (╯‵ ′)╯︵┻━┻
To complain is to complain, and to complain is to complain, but Xie Yuan's intentions are also clear to these people, so after the complaints and complaints are over, these people will curse in their hearts while continuing to be old scalpers.
There are even some people who have a hard time thinking, forget it, if the lord loves to be a monster, let him be a monster. Anyway, if he is such a monster, the more than 100,000 soldiers of the Dingbei Army will be short-handed and cannibalistic. Putting him under Xie's command, at least he won't be an enemy of Xie's, which is also a good thing.
And Ye Anlan was so sure that the days of these three companies were numbered because they had heard about Xie Yuan's next strategy plan.
She and Li Jing led tens of thousands of horses from the two families, crossed the Wang family's territory obliquely, and marched into the northern border.
Bai Qingzhi, who had already received the news, specially sent his confidant deputy Song Wei to respond. However, at the same time, the Hu people in the north also launched a fierce attack on the Juyongguan line.
Song Wei was very anxious when he received the news, but the load of the accompanying chariots and horses was there, and he couldn't ask Ye Anlan and others to rush on like light cavalry.
Ye Anlan saw his anxiety and thought for a while. Taking advantage of the team's stop to rest, she called Li Jing, Chang'an, Yang Xiaotao, Zheng Fengshou, and Wen Liuniang aside alone, and discussed the follow-up with them. matter.
Li Jing listened to her without saying a word, "Then you should be more careful."
Ye Anlan breathed a sigh of relief, Li Jing was silent for a long time, she thought he would object to her plan.
"I will." She smiled at Li Jing with a little guilt, "Then the transportation team will be handed over to you, and I will let Liu Niang listen to you unconditionally."
Wen Liuniang, who was thrown down again, expressed her dissatisfaction, "Girl!"
Ye Anlan patted her on the shoulder, "Smart people should work harder for those who are able, so come on ^0^"
Wen Liuniang: ...Don't think she doesn't know, she was not kept because she was smarter than Yang Xiaotao and Zheng Fengshou, but because she was not as tolerant as Yang Xiaotao and Zheng Fengshou!
"Master Song." The members of the family had reached an agreement, and Ye Anlan didn't waste time. After casually comforting Wen Liuniang, she immediately approached Song Wei who had already rushed out several bags.
