Extraordinary daily life starting from evil spirits

Gao Dai's words must have upset a few people, after all, there are almost 20 soldiers in Jianye.Although most of these soldiers were recruited temporarily, the number was huge.

Moreover, these gentry families are rich and well-fed, and they can last for a year or two with hundreds of thousands of soldiers. Now they basically have no opposition in Jianye. Could it be that relying on the city wall, they can't defeat the woman's [-] troops?

What's more, you haven't fought yet, and you are planning to run away.Although the woman's subordinates outside the city are shouting happily, after all, there are only some civilians talking nonsense.The army is in their own hands and the civilians?Just kill it.

So the situation here in Jianye is not too bad. The siege just now is just to let these gentry lose some land outside the city.As long as Zhiyuan retreats, the land will still be theirs, so these people plan to stay here until their death.

So after Gao Dai said this, Xu Gong said unhappily: "I know that your Gao family has a bad relationship with my Xu family, but when is it now? Other noble families are short-sighted, so is your Gao family also short-sighted?"

"Could it be possible that Mr. Cheng thinks that the woman will let you go if you Wang Nan ran away? It's just naive. Look at how the gentry in Qingzhou and Xuzhou ended up. You are already with us. No matter what, the woman will not let you go." I will let you go."

Gao Dai remained silent, while most of the small gentry were persuading.After all, they are all one now. If these big gentry fall, their group of small gentry will be even more finished.

Regardless of Gao Dai, people like Xu Gong and Wei Teng did not doubt Gao Dai, after all, it was basically impossible to surrender the paper kite, and the paper kite basically did not have any credibility in the hearts of the gentry.

But it's a pity... Gao Dai really wanted to surrender, because he had met Zhi Yuan's subordinates before.As for the rabble in Jianye, Gao Dai really didn't have any confidence at all.

It's just that the current situation is beyond Gao Dai's control.Earlier, Gao Dai went to contact outside the city, but the other party's answer was just to ask Gao Dai to open the city gate secretly, without any guarantee.

So Gao Dai is also hesitating now, otherwise he wouldn't say the word of running away.Gao Dai is not young, so he is very cherishing his life.So Gao Dai could only smile wryly, and finally agreed to the other families to fight against the enemy together.

But when a group of people were drinking and cursing Zhiyuan, suddenly a soldier sneaked in and said something to Wei Teng.Wei Teng was taken aback for a moment, then took a deep look at Gao Dai.

"Gao Dai, we caught a spy on the city wall. It is said that he is your subordinate. The spy said that you asked him to send a letter to the enemy camp. Is there such a thing?"

After saying this, Gao Dai shivered a bit, he never thought that his subordinates would be so useless.But Gao Dai was very old, so he regained his composure in an instant.He said to Wei Teng, "It's true."

Xu Gong directly pulled out his accessories: "Okay, how can I tell you that you want to run away, so you have already colluded with the outside, are you going to be an internal response, and when the time comes, the internal and external cooperation will kill us?"

Gao Dai shook his head: "If I want to surrender to that woman, why would I still tell you that I want to run away? I just contacted that Zhou Yu, you know that Zhou Yu went to the city to negotiate peace with us earlier. , but you don’t stop.”

"Why should we listen? Then Zhou Yu asked us to give up all the land and population, not even the money and food. If we did that, what would be left in the end?"

"Without money and food for the soldiers, how do you know if those people will go back on defending us? I think you just want to cooperate with the enemy inside and outside, and use our heads in exchange for your Gao Dai's way of life."

Gao Dai shook his head: "I just want to leave a way out for the Gao family, don't think I don't know...Your families are all among the noble families who went south, and many of your own family's backups have been mixed in."

"At that time, I was still sorting out the defense of the outer city, and when I found out that those people had already left. If the city is broken and killed, you still have blood outside, and our Gao family is all in this Jianye city! "

The other ones must be, indeed, there is no word.Earlier, it was true that there were juniors in these families who followed Sun Quan to the south. Of course, it is not clear whether Gao Dai followed them, and Gao Dai took advantage of this to turn against the general.

The atmosphere has obviously eased, because this group of people have ghosts in their hearts.Finally Xu Gong sighed: "Okay, what Mr. Gao said is right, we were indeed negligent about this matter."

"But now that woman has already dug trenches around Jianye, even if I let your clansmen leave, it's too late. Sir, please bear with it for now, we will definitely consume enough energy for that tiger girl to retreat."

Xu Gong was quite confident in what he said, but Gao Dai still shook his head and left directly.Wei Teng was about to say something, but was stopped by another patriarch, Sheng Xian: "Don't say any more, this is just human nature. But we really have no way to open the city gate now, so we can only wrong Mr. Gao."

"But we also need to be prepared, that is to control the city gate originally controlled by the Gao family. To prevent him from doing some stupid things, we will not weaken the troops in his hands, but the control of the city gate cannot be given to him."

After Sheng Xian finished speaking, both Xu Gong and Wei Teng nodded involuntarily.If it is really because of this incident that Gao's family sells them, don't they have nowhere to cry?Wei Teng said to the others: "Of course, don't make this matter too rigid. We have known the Gao family for many years, so don't use coercion."

When Gao Dai returned to his home, he suddenly found that his back was soaked.Then one of his servants told Gao Dai that the servant who sent the letter was released.Gao Dai sneered: "He still has the face to come back, come on, go and beat him to death!"

Then Gao Dai sighed and called his eldest son Gao Peng in.Gao Peng is also about 30 years old. He is in his prime and is currently guarding the city gate to the east of Jianye.

"Oh, I was accidentally caught by those families. I guess the position of guarding the city gate will be handed over to others soon." Gao Dai briefly explained the matter.

In fact, Gao Peng's son, that is, Gao Dai's grandson, was also entrusted to a noble family on Sun Quan's side, but the others didn't know it.

Gao Peng said to Gao Dai: "Father, why don't we really surrender? If they guard the city gate, wouldn't our Gao family's position in Jianye be in danger? Now our Gao family is only [-] young and strong, barely considered Jianye The fourth family."

"But those small families outside may deliberately target us after today. So father might as well take advantage of the fact that the gate of the city is in my hands and directly kill Jianye..."

"If Qingzhou doesn't accept us, our 3 people can rush out.",

Gao Dai shook his head: "No, if we really come out from Jianye, those people in Qingzhou will definitely not accept us. Because our usefulness is gone, why leave us if we are useless?"

"There are so many horse traps outside, where can we rush to with 3 people? You come here with your ear, I thought of a chance to save my life."

Chapter 460 Six: Civil Disturbance

Zhou Yu's strategy did not cause too much change in Jianye, but in the hearts of some gentry, the cracks already existed.

After Xu Gong returned home after dinner, the more he thought about it, the more something was wrong, because when they were arguing about this matter, Gao Dai seemed to have revealed their matter.That is, they actually let the juniors go with Sun Quan, but many small nobles have their whole families building businesses.

This has created a very serious hidden danger. Every family must think for themselves. Even if the people of your family run away, there will be blood circulation even if the city is broken, but a group of small gentry are all putting their lives on Jianye. .

Thinking of this, Xu Gong broke out in a sweat immediately, and even woke up from the wine... He immediately ran to Wei Teng, who had just rested at this time.

Xu Gong told Wei Teng about this matter, and Wei Teng also felt that there was going to be a problem.Now there are tens of thousands of family members under a group of small gentry... If something happens, Jianye will definitely be in chaos.

"Otherwise..." Wei Teng made an expression of using a knife.

Xu Gong thought for a while: "Control the city gates first, and then forcefully incorporate the small gentry. If you don't obey, you will kill them directly!"

In such a critical time, the Xu family can't control much.Once those people had the intention to surrender, wouldn't Jianye be surrendered?

The Gao family has [-] to [-] people, and it is impossible for them to do it directly.But some small gentry have no more than a few thousand people, and not all of these people cannot be recruited, so no matter what happens, it will not be too big.

The next day Xu Gong sent someone to send letters to those small gentry, asking how many soldiers and horses could be integrated into unified management. This was equivalent to a showdown... If the other party refused, then don't blame Xu Gong for being rude.

As for Gao Dai, Wei Teng went to communicate with Gao Dai himself.And Gao Dai didn't seem to care, he just asked his son to give Wei Teng the control of the city gate, and he didn't care about leading the soldiers back outside Gao's house.

Seeing Gao Dai being so forthright, Wei Teng felt relieved, and was going to deal with Xu Gong on those petty gentry who didn't listen to him.

Although the small gentry is not as influential as their big gentry, they are just as intricate.Xu Gong actually wanted to annex them a long time ago, but usually he never had the chance, this time he directly led his troops to attack when he encountered an unhappy one.

The small gentry could not just sit still and rely directly on the courtyard wall to resist, and the entire Jianye atmosphere began to become unstable.

By this time, Wei Teng felt something was wrong.This trash Xu Gong can't deal with attacking several small families. Wouldn't it be more dangerous the longer it drags on?

As expected of a big family, the Wei family actually directly supported Xu Gong with some sesame oil.With these sesame oils, it is much easier to attack directly with fire...

Seeing the flames burning in Jianye outside the city, Zhi Yuan couldn't help but smile at Zhou Yu: "That's right...there are internal turmoil..."

"It's a pity that we don't know what's going on inside. My Jinyiwei and Nishang spies haven't sent any news."

"I can only send someone in to see if possible, assassinate a few leaders of the gentry, so that the situation that is barely controllable by the other party can collapse."

"In this way, if we attack suddenly, Jianye can be easily obtained. And it won't cause too many casualties." Zhi Yuan said to Zhou Yu.

To be honest, Zhiyuan is no longer the time to do everything by herself.At any rate, his status is that of a great general, so why would he have to do it himself if he sneaks up and kills someone?

Zhi Yuan called a supervising army over, and the supervising troops were all eunuchs... Responsible for recording the battle situation, and also responsible for daily life.

Of course, the more important thing is that the Supervising Army and Jinyiwei are one and belong to a department of Jinyiwei.This makes it easier to monitor the situation of the generals and soldiers, but most people don't know it.

Zhi Yuan has no way to cancel the job of eunuch.Because this is the only external right of the emperor, which belongs to the emperor himself.And the eunuch... just don't force it, the way is chosen by oneself, and Zhi Yuan will naturally not stop it.

The supervising army respected the kite very much, but he didn't show any fear in his eyes towards the kite.After all, Zhiyuan has nothing to say to her subordinates, and she doesn't have any airs on weekdays.

Of course... Zhiyuan had the final say in everything according to the established law, whether it was for soldiers or others.As long as you don't make mistakes, you will be fine.And if you make a mistake, it is self-inflicted, so these people respect Zhiyuan instead of being afraid.

"Princess...what are your orders?" The little eunuch was not ugly, and it was said that he was Bi Lan's subordinate.He used to be an eunuch in Luoyang, but later he heard that Bi Lan was in Qingzhou, so he ran over from Chang'an himself.

Being so valued by Bi Lan, she was sent to Zhiyuan.The more important thing is that this person knows martial arts. Although his kung fu is similar to that of Bi Lan, he is much better than ordinary people.

"Bi Rui... We have not been able to get news from Jianye since it was blocked by the gentry. But now, because of Gong Jin's scheme, there is some confusion in Jianye."

"But these chaos are far from enough... So I hope you can send someone in, contact the people from Jin Yiwei and Nishang, and try to kill a few patriarchs of the gentry, so that everyone can be in danger..."

The little eunuch Bi Rui nodded: "So I will do it myself, and I will hand over the records here to my subordinates."

Zhiyuan nodded: "That's fine, pay attention to safety... What I give you is that your own safety is far more important than the task. Since you have become Jinyiwei, you are the elites in various industries."

"Don't be a last resort, don't sacrifice your life. Spies are human...and so are your subordinates."

Bi Rui bowed his hands deeply to the kite, and let him back down.

Zhou Yu looked at the kite, and couldn't help sighing: "The princess loves her subordinates very much, no wonder so many people are willing to work hard for the princess."

Zhiyuan didn't answer this question, but instead asked, "How is getting along with Cai's daughter?"

Zhou Yu was a little embarrassed, and his face was slightly red.After all, Zhou Yu is still too young, and he is not married and has no concubines, so he is quite restrained.

"She is indeed a talented woman. She knows a lot of things clearly. She sorted out some statistics in Lujiang and Danyang in less than two days."

"I think it's a pity to let such a girl marry as a wife. It's better to let her be an official. At least logistics and statistics, I don't think anyone is better than her."

Zhiyuan covered her face, "I didn't ask you this, I asked about feelings..."

Zhou Yu hesitated for a moment, and then said to Zhiyuan, "I don't think this woman's ambition lies in this, and I'm afraid it would be unbeautiful to force her to marry."

Come on... Zhiyuan started to feel a headache again.

Chapter 460 Seven: Conspiracy

Most of the small gentry here in Jianye have compromised, because the previous few who did not compromise have been wiped out.

Hmm... But after nightfall, Gao Dai's house welcomed several guests in an endless stream.These people either sneaked in through the back door, or jumped over the wall after seeing no one followed.

There can be seventeen or eight, all of whom are of the younger generation, and most of them are family members of the petty gentry.No one is not afraid of death, especially for the gentry like them.

It's not that Zhiyuan has never ransacked the house in Qingzhou. This time, the slogan they used was the Yi tribe. How many people are not afraid?

But what frightened this group of people even more was that before the foreign enemies could deal with them, a group of nobles actually attacked them.And the attack was ruthless, the mansions of two or three small nobles who resisted were directly set ablaze with kerosene, without mercy.

The rest can only compromise when they see that it is not good, and the compromise is that many of their servants are annexed.Originally, a family could have a labor force of three to five thousand, but now they directly occupy it.

And let’s not say that they have taken over the servants, those people have to pay for their own food and grass supplies, money, people, and food. In the end, they have nothing left. Isn’t this a wedding dress for them?

Especially since Gao Dai said last time that those people have descendants and ran south with them, this group of petty gentry has quit... Although they won the battle, their lives were saved, but their family property was gone.

It is estimated that there is only one life left in the end. If the Qingzhou army is really defeated, can those families return their servants to them?

But what about losing?They are all dead... If they have blood, they still have a chance to make a comeback. What else do they have for this group of petty gentry?

So the Gao family, who revealed this matter and still had some soldiers' rights, naturally became the target that all the small gentry wanted to join.After all, didn't the Gao family hear that they didn't send anyone to follow them south, and now they are being suppressed by those people.

So naturally a group of people came to Gaofu secretly to see if they could unite.Or let someone send someone to really talk to Qingzhou, as long as they can save their lives, let them do whatever they want.

After all, if you are not benevolent, don't blame me for being unrighteous. Although what the Wei family and Xu family have done seems to be stable for Jianye, it has actually made Jianye internally dissociated.

Gao Dai hadn't reached an agreement with Zhou Yu, so he didn't dare to make a big deal out of it.But with so many people coming in, Gao Dai has to express his opinion.

So Gao Dai cleared his throat and said to the group of people: "Don't make noise, listen to me..."

"My age can be regarded as the elders of your group. Look at what you are like now. It is just that you have been swallowed up by the military, and it is not your life. Why panic?"

"I do have some contact with the outside of the city. Didn't they discover that? They don't dare to talk about us, so go back and wait for news."

Even though Gao Dai said so, his eyes were also on the representatives of those petty gentry.A group of people became anxious when they heard that Gao Dai didn't want to take care of him. A nobleman surnamed Wu cupped his hands at Gao Dai: "Mr. Gao, do you think we seem to be fine?"

"They did too much. They actually used this kind of precious kerosene to attack us. Shouldn't this kind of kerosene be used for defending the city?"

"More than 2000 people were burned alive. To put it bluntly, even the Yi tribe that the woman mentioned, it is impossible for so many people to die?"

As soon as this noble family surnamed Wu took the lead, the crowd immediately became excited.Those people began to talk about the dominance of those big nobles, basically they didn't want them to live.

Gao Dai sighed: "You are right, but now I only have [-] to [-] soldiers, and your men have been taken away by others, so what if we refuse to accept it?"

"Everyone go back, as long as we can keep Jianye, they will definitely give everyone a way to survive. As for the future... is it better than being killed by them?"

After Gao Dai finished speaking, a group of people suddenly burst into mourning.But the person surnamed Wu in front reacted quickly and immediately understood what was going on.

"Everyone, listen to me. To be honest... there are so many people here tonight, and some of them might be the spies of the big nobles. Or there were people who wanted to take refuge in the past, but You guys are just talking about the wind."

"To be honest... If I were Mr. Gao, I wouldn't promise you anything. Because what guarantee can you give Mr. Gao? If Mr. Gao agrees to your request, I'm afraid that the next day the family will know what happened today. It's the night's business."

"How could Mr. Gao agree to help us, unless we can really unite as one."

After the Wu family member finished speaking, another young man stood up beside him. "Wu Jie, don't look down on people. We all came in the middle of the night, so why not be sincere?"

"If Mr. Gao doesn't believe it, how about we swear by the blood book? Mr. Gao can take this blood book outside the city, as long as it saves our lives, that's enough."

After the man finished speaking, he looked around and tore off the silk cloth from a nearby wooden table, then pierced his finger with a dagger, and wrote his name on the cloth.

Then this person pointed at the other people with a dagger, while the Wu family in front smiled, and the second one came over and wrote his name in blood.

After that, it was logical, but there were indeed some people who hesitated and even planned to leave, but were directly beheaded by the person who signed the blood book in front.This kind of person must not be kept, and even this group of people has already discussed that they will silence that family first when they go out at night.

After such a toss, Gao Dai finally nodded his head: "Thanks to everyone who thinks highly of me, since this is the case, let me be the villain... But I have one thing to make clear first, that is, no one can tell whether it will be successful or not." .”

"After all, I don't know what that woman thinks, but... at least none of you here participated in the matter of the Sun family. It was just a collusion between the Wei family and the Xu family."

A group of people nodded again and said yes...

Then Gao Dai thought for a while, and asked a group of people: "Your servants have been taken away, so once you tear yourself apart from them, how many troops do you have left to mobilize?"
