Chapter 541

The matter of charging the Wang family had a huge impact.

Even more unexpectedly, it also caused a great response among the Goguryeo people.

Zhang Zhang Juzheng, who had been demoted to Goguryeo, also sent an envoy back to report the situation to Qin Mu.

"Your Majesty, since the recent events spread to Goguryeo, the Goguryeo people have become much more well-behaved.

Lord Zhang Zhang Juzheng’s conscription plan has suddenly become smooth."

Qin Mu smiled.

He had sent Zhang Zhang Juzheng to be the Viceroy of Goguryeo until the Japanese islands were conquered.

He had started conscripting and training soldiers, not giving up on himself because the task was too difficult.

Colluding with horse bandits to smear the Great Qin.

However, the initial conscription plan had not been very smooth.

After the fall of Goguryeo, the people there had always harbored hostility toward the Great Qin and were not very cooperative.

The Great Qin’s previous method of governance had always been to pick out the most troublesome people and sell them to the Japanese islands as forced labor.

This had made the Goguryeo people much more honest, but the anger in their hearts remained hidden.

The two recent events.

One was the Great Qin court spending money to help the people raise children and treat their illnesses.

The other was charging the Wang family with an anti-social crime.

These two things actually had some wonderful effects in Goguryeo.

The hostility in the hearts of the Goguryeo people inexplicably dissipated, and they began to hope to join the Great Qin and become dignified citizens of the Great Qin.

It was precisely this psychological drive that made Zhang Zhang Juzheng’s conscription plan smooth.

The benefits of cultural output had begun to emerge.

"Zhang Zhang Juzheng is so active in conscription; it seems he really wants to make amends for his crimes!"

"Does he have any plans to attack the Japanese islands?"

The envoy hurriedly bowed to reply.

"Returning to Your Majesty, Viceroy Zhang believes that the Japanese are numerous and difficult to conquer.

It would be best to think of a way to make the Japanese fight among themselves.

He once secretly infiltrated the Japanese islands and already understands the Japanese thoroughly.

The Japanese are inherently cruel, so inciting internal strife seems not difficult."

The envoy briefly explained Zhang Zhang Juzheng’s situation quite clearly.

This envoy was also a talent.

Qin Mu had already understood that Zhang Zhang Juzheng wanted to use the strategy of sowing discord to make the Japanese consume themselves.

This line of thinking was correct.

Zhang Zhang Juzheng was probably still overcomplicating it; there were simpler ways to make the Japanese fight each other.

Otherwise, the Japanese would already be fighting.

"What method does Zhang Zhang Juzheng intend to use?"

"Returning to Your Majesty, Viceroy Zhang believes that the Japanese have a strict hierarchy, so it would be best to incite the bottom-level people to rebel."

Qin Mu waved his hand.

The envoy’s words were only half-spoken, and seeing the Emperor wave his hand, he quickly stopped.

The strategy was wrong, so continuing to speak was just nonsense.

The envoy looked at the Emperor with eager eyes.

This strategy was decided collectively by Zhang Zhang Juzheng after gathering his staff and discussing it for a long time.

But the Emperor rejected it as soon as he heard it.

I don’t know what the reason is?

Qin Mu did not want Zhang Zhang Juzheng to keep going in circles on this matter.

In the end, it was the Great Qin’s time that was wasted.

"Go back and tell Zhang Zhang Juzheng that the Japanese are treacherous and greedy for profit."

"Just have him prepare some weapons and transport them to the Japanese islands to find buyers."

"With these weapons, he can trigger a chaotic war among the various feudal lords on the Japanese islands!"

Weapons?

The method pointed out by Qin Mu was obviously beyond the envoy’s expectations.

Qin Mu was too lazy to explain it to him.

He just said.

"Just tell Zhang Zhang Juzheng that this is the strategy of 'two peaches killing three warriors'; the Japanese will definitely fall for it!"

"I obey the decree!"

The envoy didn’t need to understand; he just needed to convey the original words to Zhang Zhang Juzheng, and he believed Zhang Zhang Juzheng would still be able to understand.

After the Goguryeo envoy, Shen Wansan also stood out.

"Your Majesty, I have heard some discordant voices in the Western Regions."

Shen Wansan’s words made Qin Mu frown.

In any society, there are inevitably discordant voices.

Uneven distribution of benefits, plus there are always people who Wu Li Ke to pick bones in an egg.

But overall, those who are dissatisfied should be the powerful clans.

In places Wu Li Ke the Western Regions, there are no powerful clans.

Qin Mu’s gaze turned to Shen Wansan.

"Tell me, how exactly is it discordant in the Western Regions?"

Shen Wansan organized his language and spoke.

"Your Majesty, the horse bandits in the Western Regions have become insane, to the point of opposing everything about the Great Qin."

"They say that the Great Qin court helping the people raise children and treat illnesses is just grandstanding and will definitely be difficult to achieve."

"They also say that the person who should be judged by the anti-social crime is Your Majesty yourself."

"Because Your Majesty cannot tolerate them, these horse bandits, and they still have no channels for advancement."

Shen Wansan’s words caused a wave of angry condemnation in the court.

Everyone believed that a large army should be sent to thoroughly wipe out the horse bandits of the Western Regions and remove this tumor.

Qin Mu was not angry.

The horse bandits saying this clearly had a strong political purpose.

Is it useful to reason with unreasonable people?

"Shen Wansan, does your June Alliance have any undercover agents among the horse bandits?"

"Yes!"

"Good! Have them investigate carefully and see who is supporting these horse bandits behind the scenes?"

Shen Wansan still didn’t quite understand.

"Does Your Majesty mean that these horse bandits are being used by others?"

Qin Mu snorted coldly.

"They are not being used by others, but are mutually using each other with people who have ulterior motives."

"But they are just clowns."

"There is no need to move against these horse bandits on the surface for now."

"Find out the black hands behind them and liquidate the people behind the scenes first."

"Let these horse bandits serve as bait for the Great Qin for once!"

Hearing Qin Mu’s words, Shen Wansan was very startled.

He had previously ignored why these horse bandits were acting so crazy and courting death.

According to the Emperor, they were just pursuing their own petty interests.

For this, they didn’t hesitate to spread rumors and cause trouble!

"Your Majesty, I will arrange for people to investigate!"

"I just don’t know who would collude with horse bandits to smear the Great Qin’s reputation?"

Shen Wansan had never experienced such things and had no clue for a moment.

Qin Mu seemed to have everything in his chest.

He slowly stated his guess.

"It’s nothing more than the Great Food Empire and Byzantium and their ilk."

"The clans south of the Yangtze River might also do this, but their reaction shouldn’t be this fast."

So it was foreign states!

Shen Wansan was uncontrollably angry.

These horse bandits, it was one thing to rob the road, but now they actually dared to collude with foreign states to smear the Great Qin!

This was very hateful!

"Your Majesty, I will definitely find out as soon as possible."

"At that time, I will use their own methods to treat them!"

"The June Alliance should also show its butcher’s knife!"

Qin Mu nodded with satisfaction.

These troublesome things cannot be taken too seriously, otherwise, it’s not worth it to get yourself angry.

If someone dares to provoke, use the same means to strike back hard.

Once their claws hurt, they naturally won’t dare to do it again.

"Tell Niu Gao and Yang Yang Zaixing that they can consider expanding the army."

"If any horse bandits surrender, execute them on the spot!"

"The Great Qin does not keep such people who eat inside and out!"
