Chapter 277 Flyers

Propaganda wars are not difficult to operate.

After copying one by one, they can be stacked together and rolled up, and can be stuffed into bamboo tubes and hollowed-out logs, or spread them flat in a carriage, sandwiched in a tent mezzanine, etc.

There are so many hidden methods that can be countless, just a little thought.

But if it is a bamboo slip, it's over... It's not that the bamboo slips cannot be hidden, but in fact, most bamboo slips can be hidden in paper.

The problem is that the mezzanine and the bamboo tube, just hide one or two bamboo slips, and I can’t carry much even if I’m so tired.

Not having much to bring means it is difficult to form a group effect.

Then Chen Bing asked the soldiers to dress up and Chu people to carry these flyers into Chu territory.

Originally, Chen Bing wanted to spend some time to let Chu Min do these things.

It is not difficult to do this. After the Qin army occupied Huaibei and harvested a large area of ​​land, it also obtained a large number of Chu people, and these Chu people could all be used by the Qin army.

All you need is to use a little money and then take his family as the main body... It is normal to take people as the main body during this period. After all friendly relations between countries have to be established, the prince must be the main body.

However, Chen Bing sent people to Chu for reconnaissance and found that there seemed to be no need for this.

The reason is that the household registration management of Chu State is very chaotic. For example, the household registration of the three major tribes Zhao, Qu and Jing has no integration... Of course, this will not be integrated. Each of them has private property, including the people, so there is no need to integrate the household registration with other nobles.

This can lead to a series of problems.

For example, if the people under the management of Qu family want to go to Zhao family for business, Zhao family suspected that he was a spy from Qin State and wanted to check his household registration and other details, they had to go to Qu family to investigate.

It was not enough to even go to Qu's family to investigate, because after Qu's family there was no such person, it was impossible to guarantee that he was from Jing's family, and then he was still a small tribe such as Dou, Cheng, Ban, and Sun.

After all the investigations were not completed, it seems that it cannot be proved that he was a Qin person. Because there were also refugees in Huaibei who were destroyed, where can I check my household registration?

From this we can see the superiority of the county system of the Qin Dynasty at this time.

The national household registration is integrated into a system. As long as you report where you are, you will look for it from the county and check it down. If there is indeed someone, you will definitely be able to check it. Whether it is a spy can be seen at a glance.

The State of Chu did not have such a strict household registration system, so the investigation of foreign people could only stop at the level of "listening to their words and observing their actions".

Any verification and transmission are all fake. Just glance over and you will pass.

The main thing is to interrogate where it came from and then search for any weapons hidden.

What Chu army was most worried about was that spies with weapons hiding in and then took the city together inside and outside.

If there are no weapons...what else can you make a big wave? So you turn a blind eye and go over.

All the "spy" sent by Chen Bing did not bring weapons, and then brought a few authentic Chu people to guide him to find a suitable excuse and easily entered the city.

The people started an activity that night.

To be precise, it was not that night, but the moment the curfew was lifted...

In order to facilitate management in a state of war, all countries will impose curfews.

It is dangerous and meaningless to paste flyers on the wall during curfew: once you paste it, you will be discovered by patrol soldiers, and then you will be torn before dawn, and there will be a sticker like no sticker.

But at the moment the curfew was lifted, the soldiers and roadblocks on the street had been evacuated, and the people on the street were also sparse, and no one noticed that anyone posted leaflets everywhere on the street.

Even in the densely populated Caishikou, there were people sprinkling leaflets from high-rise buildings, and they fell all over the ground like snowflakes.

What's even more serious is that these flyers are written on paper.

You should know that a piece of paper is worth thirty coins and six kilograms of rice in Chu.

Even the back of the written one can barely be used, and it can be worth eight cents or ten cents at a discount.

So isn’t this just a spill of money from heaven?

Immediately, the Chu people snatched everywhere, and soon the people who were still lying on the bed in the house came out to snatch.

After grabbing it, you will naturally look through the content. The simple paintings on it are clear and easy to understand. Many Chu people understood at a glance... As long as you go to the Huaihe River to descend to Qin, you can have land and houses, and you can also give agricultural tools to live a good life.

This is a great thing for Chu Min.

One of the reasons why Qin State was able to unify the six countries was that it gave the people certain power.

For example, if you gain military merits when you work as a soldier, you can become a landlord and even become a nobleman.

Even if they did not serve as soldiers and farm at home, the county system implemented by the Qin State would acquire the management rights of the people as state-owned rather than the private property of the nobles...

This seems to be no different on the surface. Neither state or aristocrats own privately, nor the people have the power.

But when you think about it carefully, the difference will be huge.

The private ownership of the nobles is the slave of the nobles. The nobles do whatever they ask you to do, and even deprive you of your life.

But the country has... the mountains are high and the emperor is far away. There is only one emperor, and it is almost enough that those people in the palace are serving you. He will not sway in front of you every day and make you work or even kill you.

If the people have any responsibility to the nobles, they are paying taxes, so they are more free and have much greater power.

Before this, the people of Chu did not know about this.

This may be a bit incredible, but it is actually not surprising at all.

Because the King of Chu and the nobles knew that it was not good for the people to know that these were all. Just like the State of Wei, the people close to Qin once they knew about these systems of Qin, they fled to Qin.

So Wei had only two choices:

Either they reform themselves like Qin, or they wait for the people to die less and less.

The Wei State carried out reforms, but the pace could not keep up with Qin State, and eventually destroyed the country.

Because of its own reasons, Chu State was unable to carry out reforms and was also the least reformed country among the seven countries, so it had to choose the third way: blockade of news.

Blocking news is easy to do in this era of extremely backward communication. Occasionally, a few businessmen talk about things they shouldn’t say... and when they arrest them, the businessmen who come again dare not speak too much.

So the people lived in a daze, and the princes and nobles continued to drink and eat meat.

If Qin hadn't attacked, the situation in Chu would have continued.

But when Qin came to attack, not only did Shen Bing come, but also Shen Bing.

Shen Bing just had to ask the Chu people in Shouchun, and immediately knew that the information between Qin and Chu was extremely asymmetric... The vast majority of the people of Chu knew nothing about the more superior system of Qin.

Or even if you know something, you will only regard it as a rumor and half-believing.

This way, Shen Bing knew what to do.

What a paper, why not use such a good publicity tool?

This thing is the best, most convenient and cheapest publicity tool in this era.

What does it mean to own and monopolize this publicity tool?
