The most powerful emperor grandson of the Tang Dynasty

Li Xiang has always been concerned about these chieftains. Although he was lucky to have them all, in the hearts of many people, they are still unwilling to change their lives since ancient times.

The reason why they gave up at that time was because they had no other choice. Now that life has settled down a little, the idea of ​​resistance has arisen again.

Of course, this group of people does not account for a large proportion, but even if it is not large, it is one of the factors causing instability in the region, and it is necessary for Li Xiang to pay attention to them.

Li Xiang has written to all the officials in charge of Sichuan since Mr. Xiao, asking them to pay close attention to these people. If there is any sign of it, they must kill them all. This kind of thinking must not be allowed. look up.

Even when he arrived at the King of Chengdu, Li Xiang had someone write a letter. The relationship between the two cousins ​​was not good, but when it came to the security of his territory, the King of Chengdu still did not dare to neglect.

Li Xiang was also carefully observing the five thousand soldiers along the way. Some of them were willing to follow the Tang army on the expedition, because after coming off the battlefield, their status could be improved, they could also get a lot of money, and they could improve their lives at home.

But a large number of people are unwilling to go out. In their view, fighting involves death. If they live honestly in the mountains, how could there be such death? All this was brought to them by Datang.

Although the Tang Dynasty has changed their living environment, there are still many people with this kind of thinking just to make their warriors bleed for the Tang Dynasty. Li Xiang can't think of how to deal with them for the time being. He can only use force to make them On the battlefield.

The integration between the two races is not that simple. Being too tough is not enough, and being soft is even worse. A suitable middle point must be found, and we are still exploring it now.

When there was nothing to do on the road, Li Xiang called Zhang Jiuli over. This guy had also been in charge of Sichuan. I don't know if he had high opinions on this matter, but Li Xiang didn't have high hopes. After all, when this guy was in charge of Sichuan, the relationship between the two tribes did not improve. At that time, because of the weak military strength, this guy almost embarrassed the Tang Dynasty.

Of course, there is nothing you can do about it. The chieftains are the kings of the mountain. If you want them to surrender, you have to defeat them like Li Xiang. If you are counting on gifts, then don't do it. Counting on it.

"These days, I have also visited among them and found that half of the people hold two attitudes. We can only think of solutions from this side."

After Zhang Jiuli listened to Li Xiang's words, he immediately expressed his opinions. Naturally, half of this side was close to the Tang Dynasty, and the other half hated the Tang Dynasty.

"You mean to win over those close to you?"

Li Xiang heard the meaning of this guy's words. He is truly a genius. He can give you a solution to any problem. Of course, you have to think carefully before doing it. This guy's solutions are always costly. Very big.

"Your Highness, please forgive me for the first time."

Zhang Jiuli looked at the troops marching outside. They were all surrounded by soldiers brought from Chang'an City. They would not interact too much with the army of these chieftains, so even if they heard it, there was no need to worry about it. Spread the word. "It seems that your method is not very honorable, so just say it, we are all shady people."

The reason why Zhang Jiuli is willing to follow Li Xiang is because Li Xiang is more honest in his words and actions. Take what Li Xiang says now, for example, the people in power in the past dynasties have not dared to say it. They all flaunt themselves as an upright and upright person. These bad things are all done by people below, how could it have anything to do with them?

But Li Xiang is not like this. He can tell you what he says, but he himself is not an upright person. In order to maintain the rule of the Tang Dynasty, he will do anything.

"I hope your highness can divide the chieftain's army into two parts. Of course, it is not so obvious. One part is naturally close to us and let them follow the Tang army. The other part has evil intentions in their hearts, so let them Let them all perish on the battlefield! The most important thing for a nation is its young labor force. When their young labor force disappears, the remaining old, weak and sick will not be able to do anything."

Zhang Jiuli lowered his voice, which also surprised Li Xiang. I didn't expect your boy to be so courageous. Now they are wearing the armor of Tang Dynasty soldiers. If word spreads, the two of us will not be able to eat. The image Li Xiang has built may also collapse.

Seeing Li Xiang's sharp eyes, Zhang Jiuli quickly knelt down, but Li Xiang still helped the guy up. Although what he said was a bit excessive, it was still a solution.

"Politics is always dirty, so I'll leave this matter to you. Divide them into two parts. They must be carefully screened. Of course, the distinction should not be so clear. If some people have evil intentions, then this We won’t let them come back again.”

When Li Xiang said this, he suddenly remembered another thing. After all, he came from modern society, and respect for life has been imprinted in his mind.

"Is it possible to keep them in our new occupied territories and let them help us manage our overseas territories?"

Although these people still harbored evil intentions, Li Xiang still felt that they should be given a chance. After all, they were already citizens of the Tang Dynasty. If they were treated like this on the battlefield, Li Xiang still felt a little uncomfortable. If it were Gao Li and Fu Sang Li Xiang would not even frown.

"It's not impossible, but we can't let their family members pass by in a short period of time. We can only let them be there by themselves. Only in this way can we control them. Otherwise, it will be easy to conquer the mountain and become the king. Then it will be another disaster. "

Zhang Jiuli also agreed with Li Xiang's suggestion. After all, there was too much newly occupied land. Compared with the local troops, they were still trustworthy.

Moreover, every time they occupied a new place, the local resistance would be fierce. When they were stationed there, they did not have the time to think about how to resist the Tang Dynasty. They had to suppress the local area first, otherwise they would face all kinds of assassinations every day. , before you could react, your life was gone.

"Then don't separate them for now, so as not to alert the enemy."

Li Xiang looked at the chieftain army in the distance and said thoughtfully... (End of this chapter)
