Chapter 311: The Appeasement Plan

Zheng Qian's eyes flickered, and he sighed softly and said: "Grand Master, the Anxia soldiers and horses and local officials you stationed in Sichuan Province not only collected their taxes, but also acted violently. They did not treat them as human beings, and treated them worse than bandits. They must be cruel and make their people unable to make a living, so much so that they sell their wives and children, and some even commit suicide in front of the government office in protest!"

"I'll go! Is it really that serious?" Han Ba ​​was surprised.

"Indeed!"

Zheng Qian shook his head and said: "The Banzhen clan also used legal procedures to complain to the state government, but because it involved the children of Anxia, ​​no matter the city lord or the state lord, no one dared to pay attention to it, and the court was far away, so they had no power or power. It is impossible for them to come to Beijing to complain. They are full of resentment and have no choice but to plunder everywhere. It is just to survive. It is not that anyone wants to be an emperor or to escape from the rule of the court. As long as they appoint honest and upright people If they go to Sichuan Province to take up a post, they will keep to themselves and there is no need to send an army to prove it."

"These Anxia soldiers and horses are my disciples! How dare you do anything wrong? It's impossible..." Han Ba ​​didn't believe it.

"Alas! Grand Master! How long has it been since you changed the troops in Chuanzhou?"

Han Ba ​​was stunned for a moment, and while thinking about it, he said: "It seems...it has been ten years. I remember that several of them died of illness and fights..."

"Alas! Sickness is just an excuse. In fact, he died on a woman's belly. As for fighting, it is for profit, not death on the battlefield!"

"What? It's really unreasonable! A soldier dies on a woman's belly. This is simply the greatest shame for a soldier!" Han Ba ​​slammed the armrest.

Zheng Qian hurriedly struck while the iron was hot: "As the saying goes, if the general is outside, the emperor's orders will not be accepted! The policy of stationing troops is the strategy of our government, but the purpose of regular replacement of generals is to prevent the generals from forming cliques and protecting each other for personal gain. Once they support their troops and respect themselves, they will If we threaten the imperial court, we will be replaced sooner or later!"

Han Ba's fat body trembled, and he said with a worried look: "If they imitate me... No! Kill! Bring them all back, kill them all, leave no one behind! I don't care about the few people, you will do it right away Go do it!”

Zheng Gan looked troubled and hesitated to speak: "Thank you, Grand Master! We only need to eradicate the generals who are taking the lead. There is no need to kill so many people, but... I am afraid that there will be people who will stop me, and I can't kill any of them..." …”

Han Bahuan stared at him and cursed loudly: "Damn it! Looking at the whole world, who dares to go against this grand master? If anyone dares to stop him, I will immediately destroy all nine of his tribes and leave no chickens or dogs behind!"

Zheng Qian's eyes were wandering, with a submissive expression on his face, and he whispered intermittently: "I'm afraid... it won't even be good for you..."

These words exploded in Han Ba's ears like thunder, hitting the only pain in his heart!

Han Ba's face was uncertain, and he said with concern: "You mean...my brother Han Hu?"

Zheng Qian's eyes lit up, and he immediately showed an admiring look, but he didn't say anything. Silence was really better than sound at this time, and his methods were extremely clever.

Han Ba ​​said thoughtfully: "Han Hu has gone too far! Back then, he was tyrannical in the imperial city. I don't know the reputation of 'Han Crouching Tiger'... He also deserves some credit for being able to be in today's situation... …We are brothers again…what do you think we should do?”

Zheng Qian's eyes flashed with murderous intent, and he implicitly reminded: "Grand Master, this is not like you back then. As the saying goes, when it is broken, it will be broken, and when it is continued, it will be chaotic..."

Han Ba ​​suddenly stood up and paced back and forth in the hall. His expression changed several times and he said, "Does the military advisor want my brothers to kill each other? The brothers will be shot with swords and their blood will be trampled by outsiders?"

Zheng Qian accepted the offer and hurriedly stood up and bowed: "No! No! My lord! It's not easy for us to conquer the world, and it's even harder to dominate the country! You just need to advise General Han Hu not to allow his subordinates to do whatever they want in the city." , because they have done evil, all the people's accounts will be recorded on your head. If public anger is aroused, won't it give the princes of all parties an excuse to attack you?"

This affectionate word "Lord" made Han Ba ​​couldn't help but recall the past when he raised his troops from Yuewen Mountain, worked together with Zheng Qian, Meng Tuo and others, held the emperor hostage and ordered the princes, etc., and sighed in his heart that the current situation is really good. It was hard-won, and these two understated words once again hit the hidden worries in Han Ba's heart!

"You bastard! You are just a bastard! If I don't kill the chickens and monkeys, and show them some color, won't I be riding on my head to shit in the future!" Han Ba ​​was furious and furious.

"Grand Master! Take your time...we are all our own people..." Zheng Qian repeatedly advised.

"Except Han Hu! Who is the most arrogant and domineering person among his subordinates?"

Zheng Qian said slowly and softly: "Grand Master! This is the 'Commander of the Tongjun' Han Huang, your nephew."

Han Ba's face darkened, and he said angrily: "Even if you didn't tell me, I would still guess right! Alas! In the past ten years, the military advisor has been treating me with all his heart, always thinking about me, and only wanting to live in the world. Behind the scenes, I am really ashamed of you!"

"Don't dare! Grand Master's words are serious!"

"How do you plan to kill him? Who will be sent to execute it?" Han Ba ​​looked at Zheng Qian, his eyes rolling around.

Zheng Qian frowned and said with a look of embarrassment on his face: "I'm sorry, Grand Master! If you use people from the secret command under your command to implement it, it will definitely arouse the dissatisfaction of the military commander; if you use people from the military commander to implement it, it will be impossible for the officials to protect each other, so why not let it go?" Just let nature take its course, Han Huang will run into trouble sooner or later!"

Han Ba ​​sighed, his eyes full of trust and said: "Oh! The military advisor is indeed loyal to me! As you said, it's not like we just let it go? Who in the entire Leiyue City dares to provoke Han Huang? Let's talk about it. , even if someone dares to provoke him, Han Hu will not sit idly by and do nothing!"

Zheng Gan raised the corner of his mouth and suggested: "Grand Master! How about this? Let's wait and see what happens and secretly support those who dare to provoke Han Huang. After they calm down, we will send this person to carry out the purge of the generals in Sichuan Province. The task is to appease the emotions of the 'Banzhen' clan, isn't it possible to kill two birds with one stone?"

Han Ba ​​was stunned for a moment, then laughed heartily and said: "Wonderful! That's wonderful! It's really a good way to kill two birds with one stone. Since you said that, you must have found a suitable candidate. I can't wait for it. I can't wait." Want to see what kind of character he is?"

At this moment, an eunuch outside the study respectfully said: "I would like to inform the Grand Master, Grand Master Nie Yuan, to have an audience!"

Both of them had expressions of astonishment on their faces. If something urgent had not happened, Nie Yuan would never have come to see Han Ba ​​in the Grand Master's Mansion.

"Hurry up!" Han Ba ​​waved his hand.

Not long after, he saw Nie Yuan walking in anxiously. When he saw both of them with smiles on their faces, his heart suddenly lightened and he called Amitabha. After bowing, he stood sideways.

"What makes you so panicked?" Han Ba ​​asked with a smile.
