Chapter 487 If There Is No Price for Betrayal
Chapter 487 If there is no price for betrayal
The road from Nanjun to Yunmengze.
The fields on both sides are already barren, and there are no traces of farmers on either side.
You know, even after the autumn harvest.
The fields also need to be worked, otherwise the land will not be easy to cultivate in the coming year.
Farmers can only take a little rest in winter.
But the cold weather was another kind of torture.
At this time, the road surface vibrated slightly, and a team of thousands of people galloped past.
But even if they were running fast, the formation of the team was not too scattered, and even if they encountered a surprise attack, they could respond at any time.
The team marched until the evening before stopping to set up camp.
"Who's in control here now?"
Zhao Lang stood at the height of the camp, watching his soldiers building the camp defense.
This is a rigid rule, even if you know that there are no enemy troops around, this protection cannot be relaxed.
It can save lives at critical times.
"Master, according to the information collected before, most of them are controlled by the original county guard."
Nu quickly told the information.
This is the benefit of returning to one's own territory. Various information networks have already been spread out, even the most rough information.
I can also have a general understanding of this place.
Zhao Lang nodded.
The situation here is similar to other Chu places.
The county guards are still those county guards, and most of the officials are those officials.
It's just that the banner of Dachu has been changed, which is almost the same as it was under the rule of Daqin.
And Da Chu's control over them is even weaker.
Zhao Lang can also probably know what happened before Daqin,
What happened to the distribution of nobles in various places?
People say that it is a country, but in fact, each country operates in its own way, and no real centralization of power has been achieved.
There is no ability to concentrate on doing big things.
"Collect out the list of county guards and high-ranking officials in Yunmengze."
Zhao Lang ordered calmly,
"Tell them that all counties here will be controlled by Yunmengze in the future."
"They have to play by our rules."
"Whoever disobeys, warn first, diehards, you know how to deal with it."
Now Han Cheng has Han Cheng to help him watch, but he must control the boundary from Yunmengze to Wuguan.
The slave should be there soon, and then leave to run errands.
He is very busy now, after arriving near Yunmeng Lake, he got in touch with the cobweb and the lowly one.
The delivery of news has been much smoother.
Zhao Lang looked into the distance, thinking about the next arrangement in his mind.
Although he has already obtained the jade pendant of the Han royal family.
But don't rush to give it out now, because it was only given to the Wei royal family, so as not to arouse suspicion.
When I really have that opportunity, I will give it out directly to confuse the first emperor.
Let the other party think that he is only thinking about how to save people.
Then go straight to the raid.
Do not allow time for the other party to react.
If there is no chance, just make a substitution honestly, and then slip away.
Anyway, there will be no problems at the border.
The Xiongnu seem to have no tendency to go south, and have been attacking the Yuezhi and Qiang people, taking advantage of the time when the Great Qin has no time to look north, to accumulate strength.
The Hu people are being eaten away to death, so it is impossible for them to be harmful to Daqin.
And Goguryeo is even more impossible, those things, how could they have the courage.
It's just that they don't know whether the master-student pair from the Zongheng family is dead or not.
Without information, it is still a bit uncomfortable.
At that time, send a message to let them go to find out the information.
Just as Zhao Lang was calculating one by one, a figure came by his side,
"Alang"
As soon as Zhao Lang turned his head, he saw Ji Wushuang who had regained her female attire and her status as a peasant saint, and said with a smile,
"Well, it's still so pretty."
Of course, the main reason is that when Ji Wushuang used the status of King Yan, he always liked to hang out with him.
It's hard.
Ji Wushuang lowered her head shyly, then said in a low voice,
"Ah Lang, I want to tell you something."
Zhao Lang's expression changed, but he said,
"It's nothing, you have to tell me."
Ji Wushuang snorted, but still said,
"I think I still need to tell you about this matter. I went to settle the leader's wife and daughter that day."
After finishing speaking, Ji Wushuang stood there obediently, ready to be scolded.
But Zhao Lang just sighed slightly and said,
"I know."
Ji Wushuang was not one to hide her thoughts.
What's more, in order to prevent any more betrayers, Zhao Lang asked the slave to leave a secret thread.
Ji Wushuang stared at her peach blossom eyes and said,
"Ah Lang, you know? Then you"
Zhao Lang waved his hand and said,
"This matter has passed, don't worry about it, I just want to tell you why I did this."
Ji Wushuang looked at him obediently.
Zhao Lang pointed to the busy figures in the camp and said,
"Are these people ours?"
Ji Wushuang nodded.
"Yes, they fought for us and bled to the death."
"They and their families are the ones we want to protect."
"However, if there are more people in the future, some people will always have other thoughts."
"There will be traitors."
Even if Zhao Lang felt that he had made the best arrangements for his own people.
But there are always some people who will not be satisfied, so such people will appear when they are tempted and betrayed.
Ji Wushuang's face darkened suddenly.
Zhao Lang continued,
"If there is no price for betrayal, then more and more people will betray us."
"And the consequence of betrayal is that the true self will be hurt."
Ji Wushuang said nonchalantly,
"But the leader is dead."
Zhao Lang nodded and said,
"So, I didn't pursue his wife and daughter any more."
"But it won't help. Let God decide their life and death, okay?"
Ji Wushuang was silent for a moment.
Zhao Lang asked at this time,
"Why are you thinking of telling me now?"
Ji Wushuang replied in a low voice,
"I asked people to send them away, and they should be somewhere else now."
Zhao Lang nodded, and then said,
"Then do you know that the person you confessed to is mine?"
Ji Wushuang was stunned, then the corners of her mouth twitched, and she was about to cry.
She knew Zhao Lang's temperament.
In this way, how could the mother and daughter survive?
Zhao Lang sighed at this moment and said,
"Don't cry, I didn't kill them."
Zhao Lang is not a person who kills indiscriminately.
Ji Wushuang pouted and said,
"Without help, they will still die."
Zhao Lang said calmly,
"I won't help them, but those farmers can. As long as the victims are willing to forgive and help the mother and daughter, they can survive."
"We are not qualified to forgive anyone for those victims."
Ji Wushuang stopped talking.
She believed in the nature of the farmer.
Zhao Lang finally sent Ji Wushuang away, and gave him a mission by the way.
Steal from the rich and help the poor, get rid of those gentry who are doing harm to the neighbors, and get some money by the way.
This is in line with Ji Wushuang's temperament.
The last time I arranged for Ji Wushuang to deal with the traitor, it was a stupid move.
Early the next morning, Zhao Lang continued to set off with his people, and within a few days, he would arrive at Yunmengze.
At this time, a fast horse galloped from the direction of Yunmengze.
The slave came quickly and said,
"Master, report back from Chen Sheng, the envoy of King Chu Xiongxin has arrived at Yunmengze!"
"They said they wanted to discuss cooperation with the prime minister of the peasant family!"
