Is it possible that the one hundred thousand strange soldiers mentioned by Meng Shize are one hundred thousand bandits?

Thinking of this, Tang Yu was speechless.

In his eyes, one hundred thousand bandits are just one hundred thousand mobs. How could they be one hundred thousand rare soldiers?

After all, bandits are bandits. They are unorganized, undisciplined, and extremely lazy. If they were to go to the battlefield, a hundred thousand bandits would look quite intimidating. Once the swords and weapons are connected, I am afraid that the enemy will charge in a wave, and the hundred thousand bandits will be killed.

was washed away.

"Yes, there are at least one hundred thousand bandits in Tiandang Mountain!" Qin Mang said solemnly.

Tang Long said in a deep voice: "Old Jiu, the purpose of the Golden Fire Cavalry in the suburbs is to deter the Tiandang Mountain bandits. If the Golden Fire Cavalry is rashly mobilized to the front line, relying on the imperial guards in the palace and the city's defenders, we can resist a hundred thousand bandits.

Attack is almost impossible!"

"Hahahaha, this matter is not without a solution!" At this moment, Meng Shize laughed.

Emperor Tang looked at Meng Shize and said angrily: "Prime Minister Meng, stop talking nonsense and tell me what you think!"

"Your Majesty, this matter is very simple!"

Meng Shize stroked his beard and said: "First, surrender! One hundred thousand bandits and one hundred thousand soldiers. If we can recruit one hundred thousand bandits, it will be equivalent to one hundred thousand more troops for the court. However, the court has had a long-standing feud with Tiandang Mountain, and it is impossible to recruit them in a short time."

Unlikely!"

"The second is to be demobilized! In the opinion of the veteran, no one wants to be a bandit. First, they will be suppressed by the court, second, they will be scolded, and third, they will not be able to show their true colors. If the court gives enough silver, maybe these 100,000 mountain bandits can be demobilized.

The thieves are dismissed."

"Third, that is appeasement! If the Tang Dynasty wants to send troops to the Chu State, as long as they can use the delaying strategy and prevent them from invading the capital while the Tang Dynasty is fighting against the Chu State!"

"The Prime Minister said it's easy, but it's extremely difficult to do it!" Tang Long smiled coldly.

Meng Shize looked at Emperor Tang: "Your Majesty, I feel that I can give it a try and mainly demobilize him. If that doesn't work, then I'll appease you!"

"Prime Minister, how much money do you think the court needs to spend?" Emperor Tang asked solemnly.

The three plans mentioned by Meng Shize can all be implemented, but it will be too difficult to recruit and surrender a hundred thousand bandits in a short period of time. It may be possible to demobilize them, but the cost must be huge. Datang is about to go to war with Dachu, how can it be so difficult?

I have a lot of silver to send off a hundred thousand bandits.

Therefore, comfort is the best choice.

Meng Shize smiled mysteriously: "Not a penny!"

"What? Not a penny?"

Hearing Meng Shize's words, everyone in the imperial study was shocked.

Even Tang Yu was confused. He could no longer understand what Meng Shize was going to do.

"Prime Minister, are you sure you won't use any money?" Emperor Tang said in shock.

Meng Shize solemnly said: "Your Majesty, I can confirm that I will not spend any money to appease the bandits, but I have one condition!"

"What conditions?" Tang Huang was very interested.

Meng Shize smiled and said: "If the old minister deceives the emperor one day, I hope that your majesty can absolve the old minister of deceiving the emperor!"

"Oh?" Emperor Tang was surprised.

Meng Shize had been loyal to the imperial court for many years and devoted himself to it. How could this old guy deceive the emperor?

After looking at Tang Yu, Emperor Tang seemed to understand something. He said sternly: "As long as you, Prime Minister, can appease a hundred thousand bandits, even if one day you really deceive the king, I will pardon you!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Meng Shize bowed his hand.

With Meng Shize's guarantee, Emperor Tang solemnly said: "Qin Mang!"
