"... During the march, unless you spend money to buy, no vegetables, fruits and melons on both sides of the road are allowed to be fed without authorization. Violators will beat military sticks for twenty times and double the compensation for the people's losses."

"Every time a city is taken, an official treasury must be opened to release grain, and the people will not be punished. Those who plunder without authorization will be killed. Residents over 70 years old will be given scattered officials and will be given wine, meat, cloth and silk. Whether scholars, farmers, merchants, wealth, wealth, and humble, or those with a skill will be admitted and appointed on the spot."

"All palaces passed along the way will be demolished, and the palace maids will be dismissed, and all the palace maids will be released and returned home. Those who have no family will be welcomed to the place to choose a good marriage..."

Thinking of the rebel policy towards the civilians collected by spies, Chen Sangliang, who was leading his army to drive towards Tongguan, shook his head and sighed, and said enviously: "After all, it is easy to draw pictures on a piece of white paper. You can do whatever you want. Just use a few tricks to buy all the people who can buy them. No wonder everyone in Guanzhong is concerned about him, Li Yuan's old thief."

"It doesn't hurt to sell the land of the master. I will buy people's hearts with His Majesty's money and food. Of course, Duke Tang is generous." Fang Xuanling, who went to war with Chen Sangliang for the first time, took the conversation and said with a smile: "But it can be considered as the right medicine for this world, and it will definitely have a lot of results. Brother, this time you will go west to Guanzhong, it is probably easy to defeat Li Yuan's rebels, and it is difficult to recover the people in Guanzhong."

"Not necessarily." Chen Sangliang smiled. It was rare to have a disagreement with Fang Xuanling. He said with a smile: "I can do what Li Yuan's rebels can do, and I can do better than him."

"Brother, it's unlikely?" Fang Xuanling looked at Chen Sangliang and said, "Brother Yu knows that you have strict constraints on the army. No matter when, it is strictly forbidden for soldiers to disturb the people. Military discipline is definitely not worse than Li Yuan's rebels. But what about other aspects? With the precedents of Luokou Cang and Liyang Cang, you may find ways to open the warehouse and release grain. Can you do this indiscriminate rewards and dismissal of palace maids? Or, do you dare to do it?"

"Why do I have to follow him, Li Yuan? If you want to win people's hearts, there are other ways." Chen Sangliang smiled again, and then said: "Brother Qiao Song, you will lead Mr. Xuancheng and others to come up with a list of articles to criticize Li Yuan. How can you criticize Li Yuan for being too numerous to write? You can use words to polish it. The key is to add a passage to me."

"Add that sentence?" Fang Xuanling asked quickly.

"In view of the rampant thieves in Li Yuan, the civilian soldiers of various places in Hedong, Guanzhong, were bewitched by them, or threatened by their forces, and were forced to follow the thieves. This ambassador can understand their difficulties and hardships." Chen Sangliang said with a smile: "So, this ambassador allows the officials, civilians and volunteers of Guanzhong to disguise themselves as they had no choice but to retain their useful bodies, and wait for the opportunity to come, and then cooperate with the troops under this ambassador to defeat the thieves. At that time, this ambassador will not only fail to blame everything, but also retain their original positions when they surrender to the enemy, but also reward them according to their merits and reward them with their merits."

Fang Xuanling applauded and laughed: "As soon as Brother Miao's plan was released, all the people who surrendered the thieves in Guanzhong had a way out to retreat. They would not go all the way to go, and they would fight to the end with Li Yuan's rebels to the end. It would be like the enemy's morale and morale without a single soldier. Those fence-bearing grasses who are fickle in Qin and Chu would definitely have the intention to surrender immediately if the situation was wrong. We would set a few examples for these fence-bearing grasses to see, so we would not worry that they would not pounce on us like dogs and wag our tails."

Chen Sangliang smiled again, and then he realized that Fang Xuanling's mouth was sometimes very mean. With a smile, He Er, who often gave Chen Sangliang a dirty work, came to Chen Sangliang to receive the order according to the order. Chen Sangliang attached himself to his ears and told him to organize a team dedicated to dirty work. After entering the pass, he immediately collected the flags and clothes of Li Yuan's rebels, and then sneaked into the people to rape and plunder under the banner of Li Yuan's rebels, destroying the reputation of the old Li family. He Er, who often deals with this matter, immediately started to make arrangements.

At this time, the Sui army vanguard had already walked seventy miles and successfully arrived at the lake river where he marched today. It was only one day left to Tongguan. Although it was still early, Chen Sangliang did not want the soldiers to be too tired, so he ordered the entire army to set up a camp to rest on the spot. At the same time, he sent scouts to explore horses to inspect the surrounding mountains and forests, and beware of accidents. During this period, the figure of rebel whistle horses was found on the north bank of the Yellow River. Chen Sangliang also sent people to cross the river to grab his tongue, but failed. It was only confirmed that there were no traces of the rebel brigade found on the north bank.

What surprised Chen Sangliang was that in the evening, the scout of the Sui army caught a rebel messenger on a small road in the mountains and named him to meet Chen Sangliang. Chen Sangliang was very curious and immediately ordered a meeting. After the meeting, the visitor immediately revealed his identity to Chen Sangliang, saying that he was the family of Li Gang, a famous figure in Guanzhong. He took the lead in taking a small path to visit Chen Sangliang. He also took the initiative to introduce Li Gang's current situation, saying that because Li Gang was captured by the thief army, he had to serve as the chief minister of He Panren's thief army for the sake of his wife, children, and his elders. He had no choice but to be trapped in the thief camp and always hoped to return to the Sui court, so he was willing to serve as an internal supporter for Chen Sangliang.

He was overjoyed on the surface, but he took the letter submitted by Li Gang's family in a skeptical way. Seeing Li Gang expressing his feelings in the letter, he said that he had received great kindness from Emperor Wen of Sui Yang Jian. Although he was framed by Su Wei, he always cared about the Sui court and was forced to appoint him by He Panren. In addition to considering his family's life, He Panren was indeed good to Li Gang. In order to repay He Panren's kindness, Li Gang wanted to help him and lead him back to the right path. Liu Gang, the guard of Tongguan in the previous period, spread rumors that He Panren had an affair with Li Xiuning, and he also took the opportunity to point out the interests of He Panren, pointing out that the Li family would not be able to tolerate He Panren in the future. He Panren would sooner or later have a murderous disaster. He Panren was also obviously moved.

Next is the most critical text. Li Gang told Chen Sangliang that He Panren had set out on September 20th and arrived at the Daxing front line within a deadline of September 30th. However, his speed was slow, and he would do everything possible to make He Panren slow down as much as possible. He took the opportunity to persuade He Panren to burn the subsequent food and grass of the main rebel forces, and then led the thief army to turn around and attack Li Yuan's side division behind Li Yuan's side division. He joined forces with the Dongdu army to defeat the side division division of the rebels and restore the crucial Yongfeng Cang. But the most critical problem now is that although He Panren was extremely shaken, he had not made up his mind to act like this for a long time. Therefore, Li Gang begged Chen Sangliang to come forward to surrender He Panren, and he would take the opportunity to persuade He Panren to surrender Sui, and he would definitely succeed.

Chen Sangliang, who had no God's perspective, was certainly skeptical about this. He planned to hand the letter to Fang Xuanling, Wei Zheng and others to pass it on, Chen Sangliang asked Li Gang's family about the specific situation. The confidant family sent by Li Gang told Chen Sangliang very clearly, saying: "Chen Liushou, my master said that He Panren was indeed very shaken, but he was unresolved. My master was just a civil servant and had no military power, so he dared not be too stubborn against He Panren, so he could only persuade him vigorously. But if He Panren insisted on not listening, not only would the truth be accomplished, but he might still have life worries. So, please ask Chen Liushou, you must send envoys to surrender and join forces to pull He Panren back to the right path."
