Back to the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty

Chapter 269 Blessing countless people in the world
"My lord, I think it's very difficult to simply recruit these knights, unless we can control who they care about!" Xu Shang said.

"You mean their family members?" Feng Yao asked in shock.

"My lord is wise, that's exactly the case! These knights are people who value love and righteousness, and everything they do is for their families to live a better life! As long as they control their families, even if they don't surrender temporarily, You will never dare to fight with our army again!" Xu Shang said.

"Well, that's true, but how can you control their family members in a short period of time?" Feng Yao asked.

"My lord, don't worry about this. The family members of these knights are not only easy to find, but they all live together. The lord only needs to give an order, and they can all be controlled in less than half a day. But this must be done quickly, otherwise once they If they think Wuyan City can't hold it anymore, they will definitely tell their families to scatter and run for their lives!"

Xu Shang paused, took a breath, and continued: "In the middle of Juye Ze, there is not a water marsh, there are several islands in the marsh, and the largest one has several hills, all of which live in the lake. There, there is the most important stronghold of the Juye Li family!"

"In today's battle, almost all their warships were lost. Even if they have heard the news now, due to the lack of ships, it is impossible to escape in a short time, and we can use these warships to quickly return to Juyeze, and take these heroes All the family members of the soldiers are captured and returned, and then brought to the front of the two armies, they can't help but surrender!" Xu Shang said.

"Okay!! This is a great plan, haha, Xu Shang, if this move is successful, I will definitely promote you! Promote you to the Sima of another department!" Feng Yao said happily.

Hearing this, Xu Shang immediately knelt down and said, "Thank you, my lord! But please give me an order immediately, lest you have long nights and dreams, and the situation will change!"

Feng Yao nodded and asked Xu Shu, "Who do you think is the most appropriate to send to carry out this mission?"

Xu Shu stroked his beard, looked left and right, and finally said with a smile: "In my opinion, it is most suitable for the Huwei who can move quickly and can climb mountains and dive into the water to complete it. Of course, Xu Shang must lead the way!"

Seeing Xu Shu's recommendation, Xu Chu immediately reported, "This subordinate is willing to lead the Tiger Guards to complete this task for the Lord!"

"Okay! Xu Chu, Xu Shang, take orders!" Feng Yao ordered.

Xu Chu and Xu Shang immediately knelt down in front of Feng Yao respectfully on one knee, clasped their fists and said loudly: "My lord, please order!"

"I order you to quickly lead the soldiers of the headquarters, and you can requisition the captured warships, and all ships except the pontoon bridge, set off immediately, go to Juyeze, and bring all the family members of Li Dian's men back here, but you must not easily harm them. His family!" Feng Yao said.

"Obey! This subordinate will leave." After receiving the order, Xu Chu and Xu Shang immediately stood up, exited the tent, and went to carry out their mission.

Jian Yong, who had been lazily leaning on one side in the big tent, suddenly sat up straight, puffed up his palms, nodded with a smile and said, "Good! Good! My lord's order today will benefit countless people in the world!"

Feng Yao blushed, and said with a smile: "Xianhe, I'm still worried. Is what I'm doing a little cruel, a little unscrupulous, and will cause the attacks of the scholars all over the world? But why do you think so?"

Jian Yong clasped his fists in salute, and said solemnly, "Although my lord ordered these women and children to be captured, I didn't intend to hurt them. On the contrary, I did it for their own good! If not, their relatives will fight to the death with our army. But this will not turn the tide of the battle, on the contrary, it will only cause them to die on the battlefield, and these women and children will lose their relatives, lose their support, and even become slaves!"

"Another point is that because of the existence of these knights, the soldiers in the city will think that they can rely on them and they can defend the city. The people in the city will also be attacked by our army, and many innocent people will die in vain! If Xu Shang If the strategy can be successful, the subordinates estimate that as long as the lord puts on a forceful siege, Wuyan City will be destroyed by itself!"

"Isn't this a happy and beneficial situation for everyone? In addition, the Lord's army will have fewer casualties and retain its maximum strength, which will help end this troubled world as soon as possible! Bringing peace and prosperity to the people of the world, this is of course necessary It can be regarded as a great merit that has benefited countless people in the world!"

After Jian Yong finished speaking, his eyes sparkled and he smiled, as if he was full of confidence in Feng Yao!

Feng Yao was taken aback when he heard this, he didn't expect that a simple order could attract Jian Yong, a usually taciturn counselor, to utter such a lot of great truths, but Jian Yong's words were so eloquent, leaving Feng Yao speechless Can say!

At this moment Xu Shu interjected with a smile, "My lord, Xianhe's way of analyzing problems is really different from ordinary people! My subordinates believe that the root cause of the chaos in the world today is that many people only see the superficial phenomena To solve it from the surface, it is difficult to change the world, no matter how much the emperors tried to make the world rich and strong, there will be no big changes in the end!"

"Now that we occupy Henan and Xu states, no matter what the lord does, there will be many people in this world who will slander the lord! The lord doesn't have to worry about this at all! All the lord has to do is to send some people like Xianhe Talented people, to find out the problems that ordinary people are hard to find for the lord, and make the most suitable suggestions!" Xu Shu said.

Feng Yao nodded again and again, and praised: "I am really lucky to have such great help from the two of you! Now that the military adviser has made this suggestion, I want to wait for the end of the war here, Xianhe, you stay in the state Let's deal with government affairs!"

"It's my wish!" Jian Yong said happily, and changed his previous lazy image, and his whole body became full of energy!

Marching and fighting with the army, handling miscellaneous affairs in the army, and making suggestions are not Jian Yong's forte. Feng Yao can also see this, and what Jian Yong is most interested in is dealing with the affairs of the people. What he wants to see the most is the lives of the people. It's better to be better, whenever something related to the people is mentioned, Jian Yong's eyes will always shine, and the person seems to have changed his image.

Feng Yao smiled and thought about it for a while. There have been no suitable candidates for the most important positions in the state. He is quite satisfied with Jian Yong's inspection these days, enough to entrust him with important tasks. After returning to the state, I will make detailed arrangements.

"Okay, I will make arrangements for this matter after returning to the middle of the state. The most important thing now is how to conquer Wuyan City!" Feng Yao said.

"My lord, please send the army Sima here first, the battlefield should have been cleaned up by now! Why don't you take a look at the casualties of our army before making any plans!" Xu Shu said.

Feng Yao ordered his subordinates to accompany him to pass on the army Sima Zhao Wang, but after a few steps out of the tent, Zhao Wang hurriedly came to report. looking for you!"

Zhao Wang nodded, and quickly entered the tent of the Chinese army with his relatives. Seeing Feng Yao, he reported, "My lord, my subordinates have calculated the casualties of the enemy and our armies!"

"Hurry up! I need this battle report!" Feng Yao said.
