The more they thought about it, the more excited they became.
Especially Changsun Wuji, who was at the front, seemed to have some attribute activated, and his eyes were shining with excitement.
He first bowed to Zhou Yu, then turned to Li Er and said excitedly: "Your Majesty, after those pirates, pirates and Japanese pirates escaped, the court will not only send people to Jiangnan Road to investigate the case, but also organize personnel to eliminate them.
The strength of a fierce bandit who could break into the city and annihilate an entire clan must be extraordinary.
It is estimated that even if the imperial court sent out elite troops, it might not be able to achieve success in one battle.
After all, it is not easy to find those bandits, pirates and Japanese pirates in the vast ocean.
As a result, the court's elite troops would have to be stationed in Jiangnan Road to suppress bandits.
As the saying goes, food and supplies must be sent before troops move out.
With such great effort, the officers and soldiers' food and wages are bound to become a big problem.
If this continues, it will become a burden to the court.
At that time, this elite force for suppressing bandits will have to withdraw.
But if the elite troops for suppressing bandits have just withdrawn, the pirates, water bandits and Japanese pirates will come back again.
Even if there are no serious consequences this time, who can guarantee that it won’t happen next time?
As a result, it became imperative for this elite force to be stationed in Jiangnan Road.
As for the food and grass consumed by the army.
I believe that after all these twists and turns, those Jiangnan clans will definitely understand the importance of their lives and property, and naturally they will not be stingy with their personal belongings.
certainly.
If someone is reluctant, there is no need to force it.
However, if there is insufficient food and pay, the army's combat effectiveness will inevitably be affected.
If that gives those pirates, thieves, and Japanese pirates an opportunity to take advantage of us, there will be nothing we can do about it."
The more Changsun Wuji spoke, the more excited he became, as if his Ren and Du meridians had been opened, and he didn't notice the strange looks from others at all.
They could all understand why Mr. Zhou could come up with such an idea.
After all, ever since Mr. Zhou suddenly appeared in Chang'an, everything he did was strange and bizarre.
But you, Changsun Wuji, usually look so righteous and awe-inspiring. Why do you suddenly look like such a scoundrel now?
Elite troops were also sent to suppress the bandits.
You are not just black!
If this were really done, the clans in Jiangnan would probably cry to death in their dreams.
The imperial court had to station troops at its doorstep and provide food and wages.
how?
I spend money to hire someone to suppress me?
Even Zhou Yu did not expect Zhangsun Wuji to extend this.
But considering this guy's perverted nature, I wasn't too surprised.
However, Li Er looked at Changsun Wuji, who was full of excitement, with a thoughtful expression.
As someone who was familiar with the New Book of Tang and the Old Book of Tang, how could he not know that Zhangsun Wuji was an old scoundrel.
I thought that as long as I was still around, this old fox would not dare to show his tail.
Unexpectedly, after being provoked by Zhou Yu, this guy's true colors were revealed.
But it's okay.
Someone has to do this.
It would definitely not be appropriate to let Zhou Yu go, but I'm not confident in using other people.
Since Changsun Wuji has both ideas and abilities, wouldn't it be a shame not to use him?
Thinking of this, Li Er calmed down and pretended to be excited, saying, "Fuji's plan is brilliant. I need your help, just like Cao Cao needed Jia Xu and Cheng Yu. If this succeeds, you will be the first to be credited!"
When Zhou Yu heard Li Er mention Jia Xu and Cheng Yu, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but twitch.
Seeing Zhangsun Wuji's face filled with astonishment, about to open his mouth to argue, he quickly led the applause, saying, "Uncle Zhangsun's talent is in no way inferior to that of Jia Xu and Cheng Yu. The Tang Dynasty is fortunate to have you at court. With that, I wish you great success!"
Changsun Wuji: ...
broken.
Accidentally exposed.
It seems... that I was also blamed for a lot of things.
What's so great about this auxiliary machine plan?
What do you mean I need your help, just like Cao Cao got Jia Xu and Cheng Yu?
What is it about the talent of Uncle Sun that is not inferior to Jia Xu and Cheng Yu?
Who are Jia Xu and Cheng Yu?
Damn, he is a famous poisonous scholar in history.
I am not the same kind of person as them, okay?
And wish yourself a successful start?
how?
After taking a huge blame, you still want to use yourself as a tool?
You know, Zhou Yu’s idea was completely tacit.
Once I go to Jiangnan, I will definitely become a thorn in the eyes and flesh of those aristocratic families.
Those aristocratic families who were betrayed might not dare to rebel, but they would not be foolish enough to attack the palace.
However, it was not too difficult to assassinate his uncle in the street.
At that time, he would recruit some assassins to lurk in Chang'an, and as long as he went out, they would quietly rush out to assassinate him.
Even if you can defend against it once or twice, can you avoid it every time?
Judging from the nature of those aristocratic families, they will never give up unless they can kill me.
Thinking of this, Changsun Wuji couldn't help but shudder.
Just when he was about to refuse, Li Er started issuing orders without any explanation.
Seeing this, the others naturally hurried to congratulate.
Someone has to do this.
Now that Li Er has chosen Changsun Wuji, the others are secretly happy, so how could they possibly give him a chance to refuse?
With the imperial edict issued by Li Er in front of him and being flattered by everyone, how could Changsun Wuji dare to refuse?
He looked at Zhou Yu with a resentful expression, and he had no choice but to bow and accept the order.
Faced with his sad eyes, Zhou Yu didn't take it seriously at all.
He really didn't take those aristocratic families seriously, otherwise he wouldn't have brought the 98K to the south of the Yangtze River.
However, since Changsun Wuji is there to take the blame, he naturally won't expose himself on his own initiative.
I heard that it was popular in ancient times to raise death warriors, and they were the kind of death warriors who would die for their own reasons.
Although I have the ability to travel through time at any time, no one wants to be targeted.
As for Changsun Wuji, this guy is an old scoundrel.
I guess even if I wasn't here today, he would be able to come up with a similar plan.
As to whether it would expose his perverted nature, that is unknown.
With a direction in mind, the next step is to discuss the specific details.
For example, how many troops to send, where they will be dispatched from, and who will command them.
There was also the question of which family to attack, whether it was necessary to leave women and children behind, and the routes of advance and retreat...
Zhou Yu did not participate in these things.
First of all, he knows nothing about military affairs.
Secondly, this concerns the lives of countless people.
Even if those people have committed many evil deeds, there are always some who do not deserve the death penalty.
As a modern man, he still has some resentment in his heart.
certainly.
This does not mean that he is a saint.
It was he who proposed the expedition against Japan, and it was also what he was determined to do.
From the Tang Dynasty to the modern times, Japanese pirates have almost always existed for more than 1,300 years.
To exchange a lifetime of war for a thousand years of peace, this war is worthwhile no matter how you look at it.
As for why he wanted to continue staying here, it was mainly to find out the gaps and fill them in.
Not only that, he also planned to conduct a sting operation on those aristocratic families.
