Chapter 1028: The Tyrant's Fig Leaf

Zhou Yu wanted to implement the scorched earth policy, all the grain stocks were confiscated, and all the crops in the fields were destroyed. From horse-drawn carts and wooden plows to pots and pans, all the destruction that can't be taken away.

If it is implemented, millions of people in Jiangnan will surely suffer a catastrophe.

However, this is definitely an excellent idea for Sun Quan. However, Sun Quan was still very worried, and said: "Qin Zijin's benevolence is fake, and he will definitely not care about the life or death of the people." If he catches up, what are we going to do? Even if he can't catch up for a while, but it takes time to transport the population to Yizhou, he will always catch up. ”

Zhou Yu, the governor of the capital who came out with this poisonous scheme, disappeared with a hideous face, restored his former elegance, and said with a smile: "Your Majesty, the coastline is long, let's choose a hidden place that is easy to defend and difficult to attack." It will take time for Qin Feng to find us, and it will not be so easy to capture us. In addition, the emperor can go first, and the ministers stay, and they can send as many people as they can. ”

Sun Quan nodded when he heard this, and said, "So which route should we take from?" Where to find a place that is easy to defend and difficult to attack? ”

At this time, it was reflected that the metropolitan governor Zhou Yu had an understanding of Jiangdong, and he already had a comprehensive plan, saying: "We will go from Shangrao County and pass through Gonggong Mountain and Huaiyu Mountain. ”

These mountains are among the mountains of the South Ridge in later generations. Zhou Yu planned to pass through Nanling and go south.

Zhou Yu continued: "Then arrive at Wuxing, and from Wuxing enter Jinji Mountain on the Beilun Peninsula. This Jinji Mountain is the closest to Yizhou on land. The terrain is dangerous, easy to defend and difficult to attack. We are stationed on the wide coastline, and we go in batches. You can also build a fortress in Jinji Mountain to resist the Qin army. ”

This Beilun's Jinji Mountain is in the later generations. It is also a well-known coastal defense base point. The mainland extends here, indeed, except for the islands. The closest location to Yizhou.

At this time, Lu Xun was happy to see Sun Quan. Hurriedly went out of the class and said: "Your Majesty, the materials obtained from the scorched earth can be used to buy the Shanyue people in the mountains, so that they can resist Qin Feng's pursuers for us!" ”

Zhou Yu glanced at the young Lu Xun, he knew that Lu Xun was talented. For many years to come, he is the only one who can accompany Sun Quan to the end. Zhou Yu also praised it and said, "What the deputy governor said is very true. The Nanling Mountain Range will block Qin Feng, and if he doesn't cross it, it will inevitably take a lot of time to detour. If he crosses, the Shanyue people in the mountains will make him suffer. No matter how things develop, it's good for us. ”

Sun Quan was overjoyed, and thought that this was an opportunity for him to make a comeback, coercing the people to go to Yizhou, whether it was a counterattack on the mainland in the future, or a re-establishment in Yizhou. It's better than staying here and waiting to die.

Zhou Yu also reminded: "To prevent the Qin army's spies, only notify the local officials of the gate lord clan to take the people to the coastline, along the coastline or north or south, and the specific location. Notification will be made soon. ”

As a result, Sun Quan sent countless loyal Ouchi guards as emissaries to any area that had not yet been occupied. Sue the local officials and scholars for this news. Let them gather supplies and coerce the people. or by land or by boat, along the coastline to the center. And let them tightly seal the news of where to go. Strictly control the people who were coerced, sit together, and kill them all, so as not to be detected by the Qin army.

The news first spread in Yuzhang County, and it spread to a limited extent, and the gate lord clan knew that the common people were still kept in the dark. After the big families in the city got the news, they first analyzed it themselves. They own a huge amount of land, and it can be said that in addition to the official land, Dongwu is the land of the big gate lords, and the people have no land.

The big families were basically a little better than the slaves on the tenants of their land. The big families all have the blood of the people in their hands. And Emperor Hongwu's policy estimated that their land was gone, and people were enough. As a result, the big families responded one after another.

They sent representatives to ask for an audience with Sun Quan, and as long as Sun Quan promised to allocate them land in Yizhou, they would contribute money and people to help Sun Quan transfer. An analysis of such a thing is good for Sun Quan. And Yizhou is a vast land, and the area is not below the six counties of Jiangdong.

So, after Sun Quan discussed with Zhou Yu, he waved his hand: "Whoever brings more people and more materials will share more land!" ”

The big families were very excited when they heard this, and they started to play with their lives for the land in Yizhou in the future.

A day later, Sun Quan and Zhou Yu were pondering scorched earth policy in the conference hall.

At this time, Lu Xun came with joy and said, "Your Majesty, good news!" ”

"What's the good news?" Sun Quan couldn't lift his energy when he saw Lu Xun.

Lu Xun smiled to himself: "The statistics of the whole county of Yuzhang have come up, and there are hundreds of large families following, and there are more than 20,000 families and private soldiers. The minister had ordered them to destroy the village and bring the people to gather in Yuzhang County. ”

"More than 20,000 private soldiers!" Sun Quan couldn't help but stand up.

Lu Xun shook his head and smiled, and said: "At the beginning, the minister didn't take into account that these big families have been in Jiangdong for hundreds of years, and they have deep roots, and the private soldiers of the family have followed these big families for several generations, so they are very obedient." If it can really be fully integrated, the power is not under the official ....... ”

"Good, good, ......." Sun Quan was afraid that no one would follow, so he finally smiled, "Han Xinbing, the more the merrier." They all followed me to Yizhou and rebuilt the Great Wu Kingdom. ”

However, Sun Quan soon became frowning again, Zhou Yu's strategy was very vicious, and it would inevitably leave infamy. In order to be able to justifiably return in the future, there is also a need for a fig leaf. So Sun Quan's face was embarrassed and revealed vaguely.

Zhou Yu on the side pondered for a while and said, "Your Majesty, this matter is easy to say, the minister can gather the people of the whole city to listen to the emperor's lecture." The emperor can talk about the three generations of the Sun family's appeasement of Jiangdong, and let the people voluntarily accompany ....... ”

Sun Quan was not happy when he heard this, and said unhappily: "If the people are unwilling to accompany him, how can I save my face?" Isn't it even more bad for reputation? ”

Zhou Yu said with a smile: "The emperor is wrong, what he doesn't want to accompany is treason, and the crime of treason is to kill the nine clans, but to arrest them and go to Yizhou, it is already the emperor's grace!" ”

"The Emperor's grace is immense!" Sun Quan was stunned when he heard this, and then he was ecstatic, and said, "Yes, yes, yes." If it is not followed, it is treason. I opened the net and only arrested them and went to Yizhou. It's already a saint's mercy! Okay, Zhou Yu. Well, that's ....... ”

Lu Xun listened to the answer of the pair of monarchs and ministers, and pondered in his heart: "You robbed the people of a fine light, and if the people don't agree, it is treason?" This policy, which has only been practiced by tyrants since ancient times, is still his imperial grace! This remark is really a fig leaf for tyrants, much more fierce than the memorial arch of the table! ”

Lu Xun looked at Zhou Yu with big eyes flickering, and suddenly "looked at the elegant metropolitan governor", he never expected that the gentle and elegant Zhou Yu in the past would be so insidious as soon as he turned his face. This is really going to be the whole Jiangdong father. Die inside.

So, on the morning of the second day, 20,000 soldiers and horses in the city went out and drove 200,000 people to the south gate.

"What's wrong? Why let us out of town? ”

"I don't know...... For a time, the 200,000 people were like villagers who had been driven to the threshing floor by devils, trembling and gathering together, not daring to move.

I saw 20,000 Eastern Wu soldiers, armed with weapons. Just guard the perimeter, and see if anyone disobeys will be a burst of punches and kicks, and it will be like a group of evil sharks staring at the fish.

Suddenly, a woman's cry was heard from east to west. The fish-like people looked up in terror. And he saw a great number of soldiers carrying more people to come.

These people are mainly young and young women. Men push carts full of goods, or carry large bags and small bags. And the daughter is holding a soft thing. More people have arrived one after another, and these people are the people entrained by the big families in Yuzhang County.

20,000 private soldiers and slaves escorted 100,000 people. The people had no force and could not resist.

When the people who were driven out of the county saw it. An ominous premonition suddenly rose.

In the midst of the buzzing voice, Sun Quan wore a brand-new dragon robe and climbed the city gate tower. He looked into the distance on both sides and found that more and more local gate lords were coming, bringing the people. He felt that Zhou Yu's plan would definitely be implemented smoothly. And with the support of these big gate lords, it is not a problem to go to Yizhou to rebuild Dawu. As for the rest, Sun Quan didn't think about it so much.

I saw Sun Quan beckoning, and the war horse galloped out under the city gate, and the people circled around, shouting: "Quiet, quiet, Emperor Wu wants to speak......." ”

The periphery is full of fierce soldiers with knives and guns, and the people dare to disobey. All of them closed their mouths tightly, and some crying children were even covered by adults.

Sun Quanlong's robe waved his sleeves, his blue eyes opened, his purple hair flicked, and his voice was like a bell, spreading to the Quartet, "I, inherit the foundation of my father and brother, and establish the Great Wu Kingdom." You and others are all the people of the state of Wu. Nowadays, the violent Qin Koubian, the national disaster is ......, and the prosperity of the country is ....... ”

When Sun Quan said this, he gestured to Zhou Yu on the side, and Zhou Yu took out the edict and began to read: "Great Wu has reached the time of life and death, in order to win the war against Qin, a strategic shift is needed, but all the people of Wu must hand over all the money and food, people in the prime of life must join the army, and capable women must contribute to the logistics ......." …… You can't leave the enemy with a useful item, and you can't take it with you to destroy all ....... ”

The simple and straightforward meaning is that a man in the prime of life and a young woman should take a piece of the family and follow Sun Quan away, and destroy what he can't take.

As soon as these words came out, the people outside the city were in an uproar.

Someone shouted, "What about our parents, wives and children?" ”

Sun Quan is not easy to talk about, so naturally Zhou Yu, the governor of the capital, came to half, only to see that he had lost his former elegance, and angrily reprimanded: "For the sake of the Great Wu Kingdom, some sacrifices are inevitable!" ”

"What!" The people never thought that the elegant Metropolitan Governor would say such inhumane words, and they were suddenly stunned.

In the crowd, many old people cried: "Son, don't go, don't leave me alone......." ”

Many more children cried, "Don't leave me...... ”

After a short time, hundreds of thousands of people exploded. The people in the prime of life shouted, "We will not leave our homes!" ”

"We're not leaving......."

"Why take our belongings!"

The crowd stirred.

Sun Quan had already expected this, and motioned to Zhou Yu, who immediately shouted: "Don't mess up, the three generations of the Sun family have been kind to us, and at this time of crisis, we should serve the imperial court ......." ”

And some of the people were sensible, and immediately they shouted and warned others, shouting, "You will take our goods, you are bandits and bandits." You want us to abandon our parents, wives and children, such an act is not as good as a beast! He even dared to accuse the people of treason, I have never seen such a despicable and shameless person! ”

"Sun Quan is a tyrant!"

"For thousands of years, the country has changed infrequently, and I have never seen such a tyrant who exterminated humanity!"

"Everyone, run, go to Emperor Hongwu!"

The crowd outside the city became even more agitated, and many began to storm the surrounding cordon. They saw Sun Quan's purpose and wanted to escape as much as possible.

Sun Quan's eyes were red, his face was hideous, he said so much just to find a fig leaf, at this moment he pulled out the ancient ingot knife, angrily pointed at the people under the city, and shouted: "Disobedience to orders is treason, treason and kill the nine clans!" But I am merciful, and I open the net, but I just confiscate the family property, strong men and girls to fill the army, and the old and weak are exiled on the spot! ”

There are also hot-blooded people among the people, who angrily reprimanded when they heard this: "Shameless blue-eyed boy, you rob us of things, kill our old and young, and say that we are treasonous and shameless!" Shameless! ”

Sun Quan was annoyed and angry, so he danced at the head of the city and shouted, "Come on, start executing." If you don't comply, you will be killed! ”

"Wow!"

"Wow~, blue-eyed children can't die well......."

For a time, under the city of Yuzhang County, the bloody rain rose. Tens of thousands of people fell to the ground in an instant. (To be continued......)
