Lu Xun said thoughtfully: "What do you mean, are you deliberately putting weak troops and new auxiliary troops in front of Liu Daogui? Instead, he will think that we are deceiving him and dare not take the risk? Then if we attack Jian
Kang, he will get the news sooner or later, and he will attack my rear. "
Xu Daofu sneered and said: "So we have to move quickly and violently. Not only can we not give Liu Yu time, but we can't give Liu Daogui time either. We can send some prisoners of Liu Yi's troops back to Jingzhou to let Liu Daogui know that Liu Yi's army has been wiped out."
If he sees our navy and newly recruited troops pressing down on the other side of Jiangling, he will not dare to act rashly. He will spend time investigating, and the time spent doing this is when we gather our troops and attack Jiankang.
At that time, Liu Yu or Meng Huaiyu must not be allowed time to reorganize the defense line. "
"If we move fast enough, we can reach Liyang within ten days and Jiankang within half a month. As long as Liu Yu is not stationed in Jiankang himself, if Doupeng can help, then
If we're lucky, we can even capture Jiankang without any bloodshed."
Lu Xun nodded with satisfaction and said: "As long as Jiankang is established, Jingkou can be obtained. By then, the families of the Beifu Army officers and soldiers who have gone out to fight will be held hostage. Then whether it is Liu Yu or Liu Daogui, their armies will not be able to
If the war breaks down, even they themselves will be killed and kidnapped by their subordinates as a gift of surrendering allegiance to us."
Xu Daofu curled his lips: "Don't be careless. Meng Huaiyu still has tens of thousands of elite troops, plus the troops left behind in Liyang. If the defenders from Jiankang and Jiangbei counties come to join them, even without Liu Yu
The Yan army is still capable of fighting. If we want to capture Yuzhou so quickly and attack Jiankang, it is not that simple. Besides, let alone Liyang in the rear, there are still people in the camp at the front.
How many reinforcements did Gengyue bring?"
Lu Xun smiled slightly: "Others don't know that Mr. Yu is just a prodigy, don't we know that too? These are just servants of the Yu family. They are not the same as Liu Yi's veteran generals.
On the horizontal line, to put it bluntly, they are just Geng Yue’s bodyguards and thugs. They protect our Geng Geng and come to the front line to show off their military exploits. Such an army is vulnerable, let alone fighting against us.
When they heard the news of Liu Yi's defeat, they were so frightened that they broke up and ran away."
Xu Daofu laughed: "Then do you think they will kidnap Yu Yue and surrender to us? Capturing the head of such a big family can make up for the regret of letting Liu Yi escape.
「
A cold light flashed in Lu Xun's eyes: "People like Yan Yue are just outsiders who are greedy for life and afraid of death. When we first started the army, we wanted to kill all the children of the aristocratic families to expose the church members in Wu who have been oppressed by them for decades.
The anger of abuse, but this is no longer necessary now. If we want to establish a political power in the future, we will inevitably have to cooperate with these high-ranking families, at least temporarily. So if we really want to capture Geng Yue, I think it is better not to kill him.
It also expresses our attitude."
Xu Daofu's face changed slightly: "But to kill all the corrupt officials in the world, isn't it the consistent purpose of our divine religion to kill the tiger and wolf generals? Even this time we raised troops, we also killed many officials in southern Hunan and Jiangzhou, too.
Therefore, many mountain rebels who took the initiative to defect to us have been focused on. Why are you saying this now? "
Lu Xun sighed: "Daofu, killing officials and aristocratic landlords to rebel is to attract more poor people to join us. We need to do this at the beginning of the army, otherwise we will be weak at the beginning and will not be able to attract a large number of people."
People joined our team. At the beginning, except for a small number of old brothers who had fought in the Northern Expedition, most of us had never touched a sword and came to defect with hoes and pitchforks. Without relying on numerical superiority, how could we beat the fully armed ones?
Where are the officers and soldiers?" "But after we have a certain number and can attack the city and occupy a piece of territory, then we should consider the issue of governance and occupation. We just kill, don't bury them, let alone how to manage them after they are buried.
It is impossible to be like the bandits and robbers, kill randomly wherever we go, and then lead the army to leave. In the end, everyone in the world will regard us like the Green Forest Red Eyebrows in the late Han Dynasty. We are just some destroyers, not
Establish a new regime and rule the world as a king."
Xu Daofu said in a deep voice: "I have wanted to discuss this issue with my second brother for a long time. In the future, when our divine religion takes over the world, should we stand on our own, or should we hand over power to aristocratic families or powerful landlords, and then return to our pure religion?
road
Where’s the line? "
Lu Xun was a little surprised. He seemed not to have expected Xu Daofu to ask this question. Looking at Xu Daofu, a trace of doubt flashed in his eyes: "Daofu, what do you mean? After conquering the world, you still want to give it up."
People? Even if you want to give it up, to whom?"
Xu Daofu said calmly: "If we go by what the second brother said, after the war we have to think about governance, leadership, forcing people to pay taxes, levy, and conscription, that means we have to deal with the superior family members and landlords that we preached before.
If we do the bad things that the gentlemen did, what will the people in the world think of us? Those high-ranking families all realize that such direct management is offensive, and slowly hand over the direct management of people to the villagers.
I ask the village chiefs to do it, and I am freed from the direct management of the dealers. I can even do good deeds during the holidays and give out some subsidies."
"So when we raised an army last time, many of our brothers couldn't bear to attack the wealthy families like the Xie family who were always good to their dealers. The reason why we forced our brothers to eat their flesh was also because
If we don't use this method, they will even pull our team away, which will change people's hearts. Now we have recruited many new people in Jiangzhou and Jingnan. Aren't they still grateful for the benefits of the Huan family in the past? This
I’m afraid you, the great leader, won’t be able to find a good way to solve this problem for a while.”
Lu Xun said in a deep voice: "We are the Five Pecks of Rice Dao, the Celestial Master Dao. After collecting the rice grains for joining the association, we can help our fellow disciples. This is something that the gentlemen from aristocratic families cannot do. Over the years, we have won people's hearts by relying on
The gentlemen of that kind of aristocratic family want to collect their taxes and levy their taxes. If they don't obey, they will demolish their houses, rob their children, arrest them and beat them severely, or even drive them out of the manor to starve to death. But we are
Can you help them get through this difficult time and take care of them like family?"
Xu Daofu sighed: "Then now we have to face the opposite choice. After we establish a political power in the future, we will collect their taxes, slap their penises, and take over their houses. Let me ask you, second brother, you
