Baoqin looked through all the crystals and complained about Liu Mu: "Lang Jun, you rewarded it too early, when they dug up the high-grade amethyst the size of a cold melon, it will not be too late to reward it."

Yanagi just smiled and didn't answer.

"These inferior bandits are annoying to watch." Baoqin suddenly said these thieves again.

After hugging Qin's words made Liu Mu think for a while, Liu Mu patted his thigh lightly: "You're right, let me think about it." ”

Liu Mu found Cui Yiyan and a knife, and the three of them were in the house for almost an hour.

Cui Yiyan finally gave an idea, and Yanagi thought it was good.

In the evening, when the thieves were moving their things and were about to leave, several Tang soldiers with a team of Silla soldiers blocked these people. An officer of the Tang Army at the head motioned for the three thieves to follow him.

In a small room, Cui Yiyan sat on the top, and after the three of them came in to give a salute, Cui Yiyan said: "The official doesn't care who you are, but many people do." The official asked you, do you want to become a Venerable Master? ”

"Yes." The three thieves didn't even hesitate for a moment, and immediately answered.

Cui Yiyan asked again: "Do you have a suitable and safe harbor in the territory of Silla, or is there any place on the seaside that you can control?" ”

"Don't rush, think slowly. When I was thinking about it, I also considered a suggestion from the official, who thought that you could suffer a little, and this suffering would be called a bitter meat trick, and it didn't matter if anything else, the important thing was not to let you suffer in vain. ”

"I am willing to serve the nobles." The three of them knew that this was the biggest official in the city of Qishan, and the noble lord of Silla was bent down in front of him.

Cui Yiyan nodded with satisfaction, waiting for the three of them to discuss.

For half an hour, the three of them analyzed their territory, the people they controlled, and the places they dared to start, and gave Cui Yiyan two locations, one is the northeast of Gyeongsangbuk-do, an inaccessible seaside, where there are not many people to live, but there is a good bay.

The Tang Army's 500 boats definitely couldn't get close to the shore, and they could use small boats to pick them up.

The other is at the southernmost tip of the peninsula, on the border between Gukisan Fortress and Baekje, the largest of which is known locally as Saruyama Island.

"Yes, that's good. After the official sent someone to inspect the filial piety, choose one of them, and now you are sinners, because you concealed your identity and came to Juqishan City to seek refuge with your relatives, which is actually a private transaction, and there are also our Tang Army ordnance, so this is a serious crime. The penalty for this sin is severe, but the sin is not unto death, and all of you will suffer some hardships and confiscate some of your goods. ”

Speaking of this, Cui Yiyan stopped, he was observing the reactions of the three people.

If these three people don't even have this kind of awareness, they are not worth using anymore.

After the three of them discussed in a low voice, they understood the key to this, so they gritted their teeth and recognized it.

Cui Yiyan asked again: "What if your subordinates don't want to?" ”

"Nobleman, if you don't want to be put to death for a serious crime, you can fulfill this bitter plan."

"Okay." Cui Yiyan clapped his hands lightly: "Come on, take them down, and they will be tortured tomorrow, and they will definitely be seen by the Pak Silla side." Then arrange a generous reward, and after exploring the two piers, they will be rewarded. ”

Cui Yiyan said to the three thieves again: "This official doesn't know you, and the one you have seen won't know you." There is no one who can be trusted, everything is based on tokens. ”

A small official held a refined steel card, and after getting it in front of the three people, he divided the steel card into two.

"Two and a half cards in one can be trusted. Do you understand? ”

"Understood."

Cui Yiyan waved his hand gently, and the three of them were taken away.

The next day, Juqishan City was publicly interrogated and tortured, and two of the three thieves were beaten to death. These two people are the ones selected by the three thieves who are unwilling to advance and retreat with them and share wealth and prosperity.

These mountain bandits were hanged and beaten in the north of Juqi City for three days, and it can be said that they were not killed or lightly injured.

It took them three days before they were let go.

Cui Yiyan and Yidao watched these people go away, and hugged Cui Yiyan with a knife: "If this matter falls on my righteous brother, my Datang can't fund bandits, so my righteous brother Badao has some people under my uncle's side, and they can do this very beautifully." ”

"That's what it means, we Datang must not fund bandits. This reputation is not betrayed. Cui Yiyan smiled happily, and then said to Yidao: "I heard about the porcelain vase, I feel that there will be a big conspiracy in this, I have an idea." ”

Yidao hesitated for a moment and asked, "Well, why don't you tell Liu Juma about this matter directly?" ”

"He ......" Cui Yiyan looked at the knife and said with a smile: "He is too soft-hearted, there are immortals in the national war." Take today, for example, he will never bear to let those Silla bandits die, in his opinion, since these people have taken refuge and worked hard, there must be rewards, and there is no need for the dead. What's more, his reward is too heavy, and if these Silla bandits don't let some of them die, they themselves won't be at ease. ”

"Reasonable."

"It's not a reason, it's a fact."

Cui Yiyan did not avoid these words, he was not saying anything bad about Liu Mu behind his back, he was just telling some facts that everyone in the upper echelons of the Tang Dynasty knew.

Cui Yiyan said again: "I will have a deep talk with Liu Juma tomorrow, I have to admit that Liu Juma's strategy is clever, and I admire the five-body throw, but if he is not so soft-hearted, the tactical details are not bad, but this soft-hearted problem ......"

Cui Yiyan didn't say any more, he believed that Yidao understood what he meant.

Yidao nodded: "The benevolence of the woman, just like my martial arts competition, it is impossible to get to the point, if you care about not hurting the other party, unless your martial arts are several times more skillful, your strength will be suppressed." ”

"That's what it means, King Tsubasa passed by here and talked to me when he went to Iwamiyama. If it weren't for the sage who intervened at the last critical time, he sent Mrs. Li to take Wenyue Pavilion and gave strict orders to the two generals Liu and Li, I am afraid that it would not have gone so smoothly. ”

"Yes, that's right." A knife recognized Cui Yiyan's words.

The fact that Wajima was able to take it so smoothly was played by Yanagiki's strategy.

For some specific implementations, Li Shimin believes in Li Daoyan, a decisive general, rather than a soft-hearted willow wood.

Cui Yiyan talked to Liu Mu, not to convince Liu Mu of anything, but to hear Liu Mu's true inner thoughts about some plans, as well as the core benefits that Liu Mu wanted to get in the plan.

Cui Yiyan chatted with Liu Mu for two days, and he didn't have any doubts about Cui Yiyan's request for Liu Mu.

"You mean, the real reason is that you want to upset the original balance of wealth among the three countries on the peninsula." Cui Yiyan wrote down the four words of wealth balance with a pen and asked: "What is the meaning of this word?" ”
