Qiu Xiao replied directly:

"If the thief loses the king, can he continue to be a thief?"

Tao Zhulu didn't understand Qiu Xiaozhi's words, and asked:

What do you mean by that? You can't be a thief without the king? There are more than a million thieves there, and how can they be scattered? ”

Qiu Xiaozhi says:

"Because there are more than a million people together, it is important to give them a reason to unite, and this reason must be convincing.

If you can't give everyone a reason to fight together, so many people have their own ghosts, and each wants to do their own thing, even if they don't split up, they have to fight infighting. “

At this time, Peach Rabbit asked:

"But when I pacified the world, it was also a million army that swept the world, and I didn't hear of any demon associations popular among the army at that time to confuse the public."

Qiu Wenruo replied at this time:

"San Lang is right, I really didn't rely on any demagogic demon methods to establish the dynasty,

But the previous dynasty lost power, the world fell apart, at that time all the heroes rose together, at the beginning everyone just wanted to beg for food from the tyranny of the previous dynasty, and when the army of millions was played, the court of the previous dynasty was finished, and the princes of all parties shouted that they were the true son of heaven, and in the end it was my great orthodoxy to unify the universe, and the destiny of heaven was the dynasty after all.

The reason why our dynasty does not use demon magic to deceive people's hearts is because our dynasty has its own legitimate reasons for unifying the hearts of the people, the early stage is to eliminate violence and peace, and the later stage is the destiny of heaven. “

Peach Rabbit nodded when he listened, looking like he suddenly realized, but after listening to it, Peach Rabbit had a new question, so he asked:

"In that case, why should the demon thief use the demon method, but not like I used it to pacify the world......

Speaking of this, Tao Zhutu realized that he had said the wrong thing, and quickly shut up.

Fortunately, no one in the audience will tell the idea of peach chasing rabbits.

Qiu Wenruo smiled and said:

"The reason for the rebellion of the thieves was because the local people re-measured the land and verified the household registration, which provoked a civil uprising.

In this way, although the implementation of the new tax law has made the burden of the people heavier, it is not so heavy that the people are not able to make a living, and once the new tax law is implemented, it will be more convenient than the current tax law for both the people and the imperial court.

Because of this, although there are reasons for the thieves to rebel, they are not reliable, and if the thieves want to do something, they can only rely on some strange things to confuse everyone. “

Qiu Xiaozhi said at this time:

"And after I established the dynasty, I fought on all sides, and my martial arts prospered,

Xiping high mountains, south to destroy the Mao people, east to the island, the north war Nuo, especially at the beginning of the Saibei war, although the fight was hard, the people of the world for this battle out of food, very hard, many places are short of food and famine, but the important thing is that we won, for a hundred years of Nuo Nuo was beaten into a vassal, which just proves to the world that the mandate of heaven is still in my Taizheng,

If there is no demon thief, the people of other places can live and work in peace and contentment, so the thieves are not popular. “

Tao Zhutu listened to it with relish, what the two gentlemen said was in the vernacular, and everyone here also understood.

Tao Zhulu listened to what Qiu Xiaozhi said, and asked:

"If the thieves are really unpopular, why do the people of the cities still support the thieves all the way down the river? You must know that these homeless people have been chased and displaced by thieves. “

Qiu Xiao replied directly:

"Although the displaced people were chased and displaced by the thieves, they have problems living in other places, and now they are taking the initiative to rebel, attacking and killing the counties, and surrendering to the thieves is their only way out, which is not the consequence of the thieves winning the hearts of the people."

Then Qiu Wenruo took over and said:

"And the large number of displaced people will involve the following problems,

The expansion of the team of thieves is too fast, and it is not possible for the demon law to penetrate into the hearts of the new homeless people in a short period of time, and a group of thieves who do not believe in the demon law is a huge unstable factor, I don't think these homeless people will die in a row because of the sentence "reincarnated into immortals","

Qiu Xiao looked directly at his son, and then said:

"If these outcasts are recruited by the Heavenly King, and the Heavenly King has enough time, then these people may convert to the Demon Law."

Hearing this, Lan Ziyi remembered all the scenes he saw after entering the thief camp, the gods were preaching everywhere, and the children were burning people, and it was really possible for the homeless people under such brainwashing to be bewitched by the demon law.

Qiu Wenruo said again:

"But now that most of the thieves have been accepted by Lei Youde, then there is a problem,

Lei Youde himself was at odds with the Heavenly King, and now he was more likely to face the Heavenly King under the pressure of the outcasts. “

Tao Zhuhu said at this time:

"Lei Youde and the Heavenly King are full of contradictions, even if there are no homeless people, they will use knives."

Hearing what Tao Zhuhu said, many people present nodded in agreement.

At this time, Qiu Wenruo said:

"There are no outcasts, even if Lei Youde seizes the military power of the thieves, he will still use the demon magic to bewitch his subordinates.

With the outcasts, it is very likely that Lei Youde will abandon the demon law after seizing power, and if the outcasts support Lei Youde's infighting, then Lei Youde is more likely to abandon the demon law.

That's why I said that Lei Youde's handling of the Heavenly King afterwards will affect the direction of the thieves in the future. “

Hearing this, Lan Ziyi asked:

"Then Mr. Yi, what will Lei Youde do with the Heavenly King?"

Qiu Wenruo replied:

"Lei Youde has three paths to choose from:

The first way, Lei Youde left the king of heaven after seizing the army, and with the help of the name of the king of heaven, he used the demon method to call on his subordinates, listen to the government by himself, and be a powerful person.

The advantages of this are obvious, Lei Youde can continue to give his men a reason to unite and fight, and there is no need to worry about internal divisions, those who believe in witchcraft will still continue to fight with the Heavenly King; But the disadvantage of doing this is also obvious, that is, Lei Youde is not justified after all, as long as the king of heaven is alive for one day, there will be people who use the name of the king of heaven to clear the king's side,

Lei Youde will never be safe. “

At this time, Tao Zhulu asked:

"Then what if Lei Youde kills the Heavenly King?"

Qiu Wenruo turned his head to look at Tao Zhulu and said:

"That's the second way, Lei Youde will kill the king of heaven, don't use witchcraft to demagogue people at all, and be the boss to break out of the sky.

But this is very risky, first of all, Lei Youde killed the king of heaven is not a simple down, but the core of the demon law is destroyed, once the king dies, the demon law will no longer have appeal, those who believe in the demon law must be washed away by blood to ensure the unity of the thieves, secondly, the blood wash demon magic believers will basically kill all the old foundations, this will increase the weight of the homeless people in the thieves, and the homeless people will not listen to Lei Youde after they become bigger, will they launch their own leaders These are troubles. “

Tao Zhulu nodded, and then asked Lan Ziyi:

"Young master, I went to the thief camp this time to get the news, in the thief camp, my ears and eyes heard that the hearts of the newly collected homeless people are fluctuating, many people are just coerced, and they are not really thieves, they propose to take the opportunity to expand the scale of fine work, what does the young master think?"

Lan Ziyi had already sat back in his seat, and after thinking about it, he said:

"It is better to be poor than to be excessive,

Expanding the size of the team will inevitably lead to a mixed bag, and it won't do us much good to have so many people and none of them can get close to the core of the thieves. “

Then Lan Ziyi asked Qiu Wenruo:

"What about the third way?"

Qiu Wenruo says:

"The third way is to part ways with the king of heaven after seizing military power, and everyone will go their own way in the future, and the well water will not interfere with the river water.

In fact, you don't need to seize power in this way, you just need to let your subordinates choose sides to stand in line.

If you do this, the thief doesn't need to lose a lot of blood, but whether Lei Youde's ambition will make him let go of the Heavenly King, whether the Heavenly King will watch Lei Youde run away, whether the little brother under his hand will go off, and what Lei Youde will do to persuade his subordinates to continue with him after the separation, etc., are all questions. “

Qiu Xiaozhi added:

"Lei Youde is heroic, I don't think he will be at ease and break up with the king."

Lan Ziyi also said:

"The king of heaven may not be generous enough to let go of thunder and virtue, and the two sides will definitely fight."

Peach Rabbit sounded a little confused, and he asked:

"So, what are we going to do now?"

What to do? In fact, after talking about it for a long time, I didn't discuss what to do, and everyone had nothing to say in front of this issue, and even Qiu Xiaozhi and Qiu Wenruo's father and son could only remain silent.

When everyone didn't know what to say, there was a commotion at the door.

The voice of a sergeant could be heard getting closer

"Qi Houye, Wei Hou, he is really about to rest, he hasn't slept in the middle of the night, he just came to sleep, you can come back tomorrow!"

Then I heard Qi Rongxun's voice say:

"I have something important to discuss, where can I wait until tomorrow? Did you take responsibility for delaying the military situation?

Wei Hou worked day and night, and it was difficult to sleep in order to destroy the thief, I came here to discuss how to destroy the thief, and when the thief was leveled, Wei Hou naturally fell asleep. “

After saying this, Lan Ziyi heard footsteps approaching the door, and then Qi Rongxun's voice

"You told me that Wei Hou has already slept, but there are bright lights here, do you want to break me away?"

As he spoke, he stretched out his hand and lifted the curtain of the door,

Everyone in the house was already a little flustered when they heard Qi Rongxun's coming, everyone was restless, and they were all looking at Lan Ziyi.

Lan Ziyi was very calm, gave everyone a look, and motioned for everyone to sit down,

Anyway, Qi Rongxun had already walked to the door, and it was too late to let the big guy disperse.

Qi Rongxun opened the curtain and stepped into the door,

Lan Ziyi saw that Qi Rongxun, who usually had no armor on his body, was actually wearing only civilian clothes tonight, wrapped in a cloak to wrap people outside, and tied a square scarf on his head casually.

It seems that Qi Rongxun did come in a hurry, and it is possible that he just got up from the bed after being woken up.

Seeing that the room was full of people, Qi Rongxun was stunned at the door, and the smell of burnt smoke from the lamp oil in the house was already choking, which showed that the people in the house had been lighting the lamp for a long time.

Although Qi Rongxun was dumbfounded, he also reacted to what was going on, and the hurried expression on Qi Rongxun's face also turned into an angry expression,

Qi Rongxun looked at Lan Ziyi and asked:

"Wei Hou already knows about the loss of Shouchun and Zhongli?"

Seeing that Lan Ziyi didn't speak, Qi Rongxun turned around with his sleeves brushed up, and went out as he spoke:

"Since Wei Hou avoids me, then I should also get acquainted,

I won't disturb you to discuss important matters, and I will take my leave! “
