Tang Yin''s use of Jiang Hao really worked wonders. Jiang Hao did his best for his future fame and career.
According to the way Tang Yin taught him, he first wooed the literati among the people, and then spread rumors that the Allied forces of Sichuan, Mozambique, an and Huan were coming. As soon as the troops of the four countries arrived, all Zhenren would have to be killed.
If you want to protect yourself, there is only one way, that is to give up being a Zhen person and become a wind person. As long as you become a wind person, no matter who comes, you dare not hurt them again.
Just intimidating can''t scare the people of Zhen country. Then the literati led by Jiang Hao threw out bait and said that if they just moved to Feng country, there will be a large area of land to receive immediately without corvee service or paying taxes. The government also has various rewards to help them settle down and buy homes. In their mouth, Feng country has become a paradise.
As long as we move to Fengguo, there are so many benefits. It is impossible to say that people are not excited at all. After the rumors gradually began to play a role, Jiang Hao and others made the last move to spread the theory of national subjugation.
They wantonly criticized Li Hong, the king of Zhen, saying that Li Hong''s claim to the emperor was a great treachery and had been damned by heaven. Now that the armies of the six countries have attacked Zhen, Zhen will die. The people of Zhen will eventually be killed or reduced to slaves. If they sit and wait for death and suffer as scheduled, they might as well turn to Feng. And Tang Yin has long been praised by them as an unparalleled Lord in heaven and on earth.
Under the wanton encouragement of these traitorous scholars, the people of Zhenguo, mostly old and weak women and children, began to shake up. As long as someone opened his head, it would spread like a plague. When most people accepted to move to the wind country, the remaining small number of people with firm positions also gradually changed their minds under the influence of the surrounding environment.
Within three days, hundreds of thousands of people in Zhenguo accepted the request to move Fengguo. After learning about this, Tang Yin was not particularly happy, because it had been expected by him. He ordered all the captured Zhenbing soldiers to be put into the camp where the people were detained and reunited with their families. In addition, he asked them to find out the people whose families served as the garrison in Juan city and ask them to write a letter to persuade their families to give up the Zhenbing army and go out of the city to the wind country with them to live a safe, stable and comfortable life.
Soon, the Fengyu allied forces gathered up the letters written by the people. The number was enough to contain six baskets, and it was estimated that there must be at least 10000.
That night, Tang Yin sent a hidden arrow to quietly send the six baskets of letters to the vicinity of Juan city, and put a flag on it to make an obvious mark.
The next day, Juan''s garrison soon found that six baskets of things were placed not far from the city gate. I didn''t know what was inside. Anyway, it was full from a distance.
Because there was no wind army nearby, and the Zhen soldiers were not worried about fraud, they sent two men with ropes tied around their waist, down from the city wall and outside the city to check.
After two Zhen soldiers found that there were letters in the basket, they shouted to the city again and again. Then, more than a dozen Zhen soldiers tied ropes and went outside the city to carry the six baskets of letters back to the city.
People poured out the letters and gathered together like a hill.
Many Zhen soldiers who heard the news found their names in many letters, took them out quickly, opened them and saw that people''s eyes were red.
Letters are all for home. The content is the call of relatives to themselves. There is no more powerful weapon than this.
Why do Zhen people join the army? The fundamental reason is to fight for their country. Now their relatives are going to the wind country. Why do they still stay in Zhen country and work hard? Why fight?
These more than 10000 family letters completely destroyed the morale of Juan''s garrison. Even those soldiers of Zhen army who did not receive the letter were upset. They wanted to go out of the city and reunite with their families.
That night, there was civil strife in Juan.
Tens of thousands of Zhen soldiers led by two soldiers suddenly defected and killed Guan Tai in his sleep at night. Then people cut off his head and carried his head to the east city, forcing the defenders of the east city to open the gate and let the jade coalition army enter the city.
In the battle of Juan, the Fengyu allied forces captured the city of Juan without a single sword or shot. This also confirms the saying that attacking the city is the next and attacking the heart is the best.
Tang Yin first courted the literati and then the people living in Zhen state. In this way, it was tantamount to forcing the garrison whose relatives were caught to defecte, and completely cut off the relationship with Zhen state at the same time.
When the head of the county died, the regiment commander and most of the brothers in the same robe took refuge in the wind country, and the remaining Zhen soldiers gave up resistance one after another. The reason why Zhenjun could surrender so simply is also directly related to the unpopularity of Li Hong''s claim to the emperor. In people''s subconscious mind, the reason why Zhenguo attracted the joint crusade of the armies of the six countries was completely caused by Li Hong. It was Li Hong''s great treachery that caused heaven''s anger. No wonder others. People will have this kind of thought, which is the evil result planted by Li Hong himself.
Tang Yin acted quickly. He captured Juan that night. The next day, he began to organize troops to send the people of Zhen state who had previously been arrested to Feng state together with the people in Juan city.
At this time, even if there are many people in the Tang Dynasty who are willing to use the sword to catch the people in the Tang Dynasty, even if there is a strong wind in the Tang Dynasty, they will not go back to the city.
The previous hundreds of thousands of people, plus the people in Juan city, totaled nearly one million. With the migration of these people, the Fengyu coalition army can''t cover all aspects. It''s inevitable that someone will regret and escape on the way to Fengguo, but that can''t change the overall situation.
When the Sichuan Mozambique allied forces arrived in Juan late, it had almost become an empty city, with only Fengjun and Yujun left inside.
It is reasonable to say that the Sichuan Mozambique coalition army should have arrived long ago, but the two armies have selfish intentions and want to give Juan this hard bone to the Fengyu coalition army. As a result, they lingered on the road, marched slowly and delayed for several days.
After knowing the current situation, Xiao Xuan and Shao Fang asked Tang Yin why they wanted to plunder the people of the state of Zhen to the state of Feng. Tang Yin''s answer was that his side had to fight to the death with the upcoming Central Army of the state of Zhen in Juan, leave the people in the City, consume food and grass, and have to be distracted and guard against the loss. Therefore, they directly escorted them back to the state of Feng and finished everything.
For his statement, Xiao Xuan and Shao Fang certainly can''t accept it. Even fools can see that Tang Yin is robbing the population of Zhenguo.
Hearing their questions, Tang Yin simply opened the skylight and said bluntly, "what did our agreement say at the beginning? I said that the wind army sent troops to Zhenguo, and all the booty obtained belongs to the wind country itself. Remember, it''s'' everything ''! Naturally, people are also included in this'' everything''."
Shao Fang still wanted to refute, but when you think about it carefully, Tang Yin seemed to have said so.
He looked at Xiao Xuan and asked him what he meant. Xiao Xuan smiled and said, "don''t be angry, brother Tang. We''re just asking. Don''t take it to heart."
Xiao Xuan knows which is the most important. To deal with the central army of the state of Zhen with a large number of troops, we must not lose the Feng army. It''s unwise to fall out with the Feng army now. Moreover, he doesn''t pay much attention to the Zhen people. In his eyes, the Zhen people are no different from the uncivilized barbarians. It''s not a pity to kill them all. It''s just that Tang Yin plundered the state of Feng and took advantage of them, which made him uncomfortable, But that''s not enough to turn him and Tang Yin over.
When he said this, he acquiesced in Tang Yin''s practice. Shao Fang couldn''t hold on to it any longer. Then he made a ha ha and stopped questioning about the matter.
Canglin County, which has lost nearly one million people, seems to be in a lot of depression, but Tang Yin still refuses to rest. Coupled with the tacit attitude of Xiao Xuan and Shaofang, he is even more aggressive and unscrupulous. He commands the wind army, runs around the county, catches the people of Zhenguo, gathers them and transports them back to his country.
The two armies of Sichuan and Mozambique don''t want to burn out in CangLin county. Xiao Xuan and Shao Yin proposed to Tang Yin that their own side should continue to advance westward. According to the original plan, Fengyu coalition army will attack Guping county and Sichuan Mozambique coalition army will attack Xinfeng County.
Tang Yin didn''t say anything about their suggestions. Instead, lingshuang frowned and said, "our soldiers are divided into two routes and two counties. What if we meet the central army of Zhenguo on the way?"
Xiao Xuan said positively, "when one side meets the enemy, the other side immediately reinforcements."
"What if the reinforcements are not timely?" Fengyu allied army and Chuanmo allied army have 400000 troops respectively, while the central army of Zhenguo from Xitang is 400000, 400000 to 400000. How can we have a frontal confrontation with Zhenjun when the troops are not dominant?
"If the other side really has no time to reinforce, we can also let the second army of anhuan in the rear come to help!" Xiao Xuan said with confidence.
According to his estimation, nine times out of ten, the central army of Zhenguo who came to reinforce would go to Guping county with a relatively smooth road, while the Fengyu allied army attacked Guping. In other words, the probability of Fengyu allied army meeting the central army of Zhenguo is much higher than that of Chuanmo allied army, which is also the reason why he is eager to advance westward.
Guping county has a flat road, Xinfeng County has many rugged mountain roads, and 400000 troops will certainly choose to take a flat road. At this time, Xiao Xuan proposed to advance westward, which is tantamount to pushing the Fengyu coalition army into the fire pit.
Lingshuang''s face turned red with anger. Xiao Xuan said it lightly. If he met Zhen army, he would like to rescue immediately, but what if Chuan Mo allied army and an Huan allied army don''t come to rescue at that time?
She still wanted to talk. Tang Yin waved her hand and said calmly, "I think it''s what brother Xiao Wang wants!"
"But..."
"No matter who meets Zhenjun, with the strength of Fengyu and Chuanmo, they may not lose!" Tang Yin said carelessly.
