Chapter 57: Lu Chou's Three Policies
Huang Zhong entered Qin Jie's mansion. At this moment, Qin Jie was sitting there, and in front of Qin Jie, there was a mysterious masked man.
When Qin Jie saw Huang Zhong coming in, he hurriedly said, "Thank you for your hard work in Han Sheng."
Huang Zhong bowed and said, "It is Han Sheng's duty to share his worries, and it is not hard work."
Then, Huang Zhong bowed and asked, "Military advisor, now that the Yellow Turban has been defeated by me, will they withdraw their troops?"
The masked person is nothing else, but Lu Chou lurking in Wan County.
After hearing this, Lu Chou frowned and asked, "General, have the results of this battle been counted?"
Huang Zhong shook his head and said, "Not yet, but I guess the other party's casualties will be five times that of our soldiers this time, and even more. With such a big casualties, does Zhang Mancheng really have the courage to come back?"
When Lu Chou heard Huang Zhong’s doubts, he said without hesitation: “If the enemy retreated, wouldn’t it be right? In this case, wouldn’t the siege of Wan County be resolved?”
When Huang Zhong heard Lu Chou say this, he said with some dissatisfaction: "Military advisor, if Zhang Mancheng retreats, it will be a disaster. Although he is in the enemy, Zhang Mancheng is definitely not comparable to ordinary Yellow Turban generals. If he is let go, there will be endless troubles."
When Lu Chou heard Huang Zhong’s statement, he laughed.
After Qin Jie heard Huang Zhong's words, he also laughed, leaving Huang Zhong alone with a little confused.
Huang Zhong muttered in a low voice: "What did I say wrong?"
Qin Jie smiled and said, "Okay, Han Sheng, the military advisor is just the one who teased you. The military advisor is sure that the Yellow Turban will come again to attack the city tomorrow. Let's wait and see."
When Huang Zhong heard Qin Jie say so affirmatively, he stopped talking, but said, "Since that's the case, the generals will go down and take the troops to perform. If the Yellow Turbans really come tomorrow, Huang will definitely let them go without a return."
Lu Chou smiled and said, "Okay, General Huang has such ambitions, so Ziyu is waiting for the good news here."
Huang Zhong bowed to Lu Chou and Qin Jie and left.
When Huang Zhong left, Lu Chou and Qin Jie's faces became serious.
After all, Huang Zhong, as the chief general of the army, was under great pressure to face the Yellow Turbans. The two of them did not let Huang Zhong know about some things.
Qin Jie Ningsheng asked, "Military advisor, are you sure to keep Zhang Mancheng?"
Lu Chou said in a deep voice: "To be honest, I am only 50% sure."
Qin Jie frowned and said, "Aren't the military advisor afraid of really beating Zhang Mancheng?"
When Lu Chou heard Qin Jie's words, he said half jokingly and half seriously: "If Zhang Mancheng was really scared of being beaten, I'm afraid this guy would not have such a big threat to us. Wouldn't we be happy?"
When Qin Jie heard this, he clearly announced Lu Chou's meaning and did not say much.
Then, Lu Chou asked, "Sir, what information should we send back to the spies we distributed in the city?"
When Qin Jie heard Lu Chou asking about this, he couldn't help but sigh and said, "I'm afraid the situation is a bit bad."
Lu Chou asked in confusion: "Why is it a bad method?"
Qin Jie said slowly: "No matter what the military advisor expected, there are indeed some restless people in the city."
When Lu Chou heard this, he couldn't help but pay attention and asked: "What are the power of these people?"
Qin Jie nodded and said, "Fortunately, it's all within my control. However, I really didn't expect that there were such an eye-opener under my command."
When Lu Chou heard Qin Jie's declining words, he couldn't help but say, "Sir, this is normal. After all, everyone has to consider each other. These people are fence-bearers, and they just need to keep their families safe. Now, since they have made some moves, we are just going to follow the flow and have a great purge in Wan County."
When Qin Jie heard this, he couldn't help but frown and said, "The great purge is probably a bit out of place now."
Lu Chou smiled and said, "Sir, I know your concerns are now the time for the enemy and us to fight. If the cleaning is done at this time, it is likely that these aristocratic families will rebound, and at the same time cause panic among the people and chaos in the city."
Qin Jie nodded and said, "That's true, why did the military advisor ask me to prepare for cleaning?"
Lu Chou shook his head and said, "Sir, what I just said is just a rough idea. Among them, I have three strategies for you to choose from."
When Qin Jie heard this, he couldn't help but ask, "Oh? There are three strategies? Come quickly."
Lu Chou said calmly: "The worst strategy is to slaughter all the aristocratic families that are ready to move. At the same time, he strongly supports the aristocratic families who have no ideas to reduce the influence of the slaughtered aristocratic families."
Then, Lu Chou continued: "This plan is safe and can achieve complete achievements in one fell swoop, so that the aristocratic families cannot become our future trouble."
Qin Jie heard this, but he just nodded and signaled Lu Chou to continue speaking.
Immediately afterwards, Lu Chou continued: "The second strategy is to invite all the aristocratic families to the prefect's mansion. As for the means, there are many more strong ones. If necessary, there is no need to worry about eliminating some aristocratic families and keeping these aristocratic families firmly in their hands."
Qin Jie frowned indecisively when he heard this. After all, the second plan was a bit alarming. If the Yellow Turbans took the lead, it would be inappropriate.
However, Qin Jie still patiently listened to Lu Chouwan.
Finally, Lu Chou said: "For the last strategy, we can use the strategy and use the aristocratic families to lure the Yellow Turbans, and make the Yellow Turbans futile."
When Qin Jie heard this, he became interested and hurriedly asked, "How to act?"
Lu Chou whispered in Qin Jie's ear: "Just like this, this, this, this."
When Qin Jie heard this, he frowned and said, "Ziyu, will this plan be a bit too risky?"
Lu Chou smiled and shook his head, saying, "Sir, it's really a bit of a risk if you do this plan alone, but we can use three strategies interspersed with them. In this way, the situation will be under our control."
When Qin Jie heard this, he thought for a while, and immediately became happy and said loudly: "What a Lu Ziyu, he really has many tricks, just do what you said."
Immediately, Qin Jie said again: "This matter is left to you to handle, can you?"
Lu Chou thought for a while and said, "Yes, I just need to be masked. I'm afraid no one in the city can recognize me, so it should be okay."
However, Lu Chou continued, "However, sir, General Huang must do his best to cooperate with me in this matter, can he?"
Qin Jie heard this and said with a smile: "If Ziyu's plan can be accomplished, he will definitely make great achievements. What's wrong with General Huang's cooperation with you? This is my military talisman. Holding this military talisman, all the troops in the city must obey your order and let it go. I'll stabilize the rear here for you."
When Lu Chou heard this, he respectfully received the military talisman and said loudly: "Ziyu will definitely live up to his mission."
