    [Brother in the family kisses me My sister knows that it is difficult to bear the hatred of her family, so she has not dared to restore her surname for a long time. But if A Yang still has a sister in her heart, I hope A Yang will listen to her sister's advice Dazhou Li  Although the royal family and the Liangqiu family have a blood feud with my Gongyang family Your brother-in-law once said to my sister that you are the last heir of the Gongyang family. Isn't the first priority of the party's affairs to continue the Gongyang family's bloodline?  How could he seek revenge at the risk of his own life, and ultimately risk his life and fortune as well?

    Sister Xiangyu, the granddaughter of Duke Yin, you have to call her Congjie. She once said that there is no mercy or justice in the war between countries. In the final analysis, it is nothing more than the victory of the king and the defeat of the bandit.  .

    "The general trend of the world will divide if it is united for a long time, and it will unite if it is divided for a long time. This is what your brother-in-law said. Although my sister does not fully understand the profound meaning, she still knows the general idea.  How can you allow others to sleep soundly next to your couch?  The killings between the Great Zhou Dynasty and the Southern Tang Dynasty were unavoidable. Although my Gongyang family suffered a tragic disaster, it was still just a small family in the troubled times at that time.

    People cannot be swayed by memories, let alone be blinded by hatred. Your brother-in-law asked you to go south to visit various places in the south of the Yangtze River to understand that the people under the rule of the Great Zhou Dynasty lived and worked in peace and contentment. By now, you must have a general idea in your mind.

    People from the south of the Yangtze River hate the people from the north. My sister knows this even in Jijing, but why should they hate the imperial court?  The imperial court has successively granted tax exemptions and exemptions to Jiangnan in the past thirty years. Even the people living under the emperor Jijing are quite jealous

    Your brother-in-law once proofread the property transfer department and learned that at the market in Jijing, vegetables cost about ten cents, and fresh meat cost ninety cents. In Jiangnan market, vegetables and vegetables cost about four cents, and fresh meat cost fifty cents Your brother-in-law shook his head at that time and said  , Jiangnan people are full and can hold on

    And now.  Due to years of war, the price of vegetables in the market in Jijing has remained at 40 yuan, while fresh meat has cost 500 yuan]

    Looking at the long and eloquent text at the beginning, even though Kuyang was actually in a bad mood at the moment, he couldn't help laughing, shaking his head and laughing out loud.

    In his mind, he couldn't help but imagine his sister Yiyi sitting behind the desk in the study room of his house.  He bit his pen and thought hard, frowning from time to time.

    Kuyang knew that his sister Yiyi could be said to be a typical Xiaojiabiyu woman. She did not read many books and did not know many words, let alone writing such an article. It was not difficult to guess how much this letter cost.  Yiyi how much time.

    "Compared with articles written by those who have read poetry and books, the sentences written by Yiyi in the letter appear extremely simple.  The prices of meat and vegetable dishes in the market are used to reflect the Zhou Dynasty's policies towards Jiangbei and Jiangnan from one side. At the same time, it also reflects on the disadvantages caused by the rising prices caused by the war to the people everywhere.

    Although Yiyi never used a single gorgeous wording in her letter, it was those simple and unpretentious sentences that made Kuyang deeply moved.

    As Yi Yi said in the letter, as early as three years ago, Xie An asked Ku Yang, his brother-in-law, to find time to visit various places in the south of the Yangtze River to explore the living conditions of the people in various places, in order to prove that the people in the south of the Yangtze River were under the rule of the Great Zhou Dynasty.  It can be regarded as living and working in peace and contentment.

    About this matter.  Kuyang was speechless, after all, he passed through the towns and villages in Jiangnan.  I really can¡¯t fault the so-called tyranny of the Great Zhou Dynasty. It can be said that the people in Jiangnan were living happily and contentedly while cursing the Great Zhou Dynasty. To paraphrase my brother-in-law Xie An, they were really full and could hold on.  .

    But then again.  It is reasonable for people in the south of the Yangtze River to hate the Zhou Dynasty so much. After all, Li Ji made two expeditions south to the south of the Yangtze River during his reign. Not only did he issue cruel orders to massacre the city in Jinling, but he even went so far as to engage in literary inquisition in order to control rumors.  The Taiping soldiers were caught under suspicion, and the number of innocent Jiangnan people implicated at that time was actually many times greater than the number of Taiping soldiers who were actually arrested.

    Take Jin Ling'er as an example, even if she is married to Xie An, a powerful figure in the Zhou Dynasty, she still has no good impression of the Zhou Dynasty.

    And this just gave the Taiping Army an opportunity to make a comeback.  But of course, not all the people in Jiangnan supported the Taiping Army. There was also a small group of people who felt the kindness of the Eight Wise King Li Xian who repeatedly went to Jiangnan to look for disasters and difficulties in various places, and firmly stood on the side of the Zhou Dynasty. However, in the end, they were only a minority.  , most people still hate Da Zhou blindly.

    They naively thought that as long as their former descendants of the Southern Tang royal family could restore the Southern Tang Dynasty, their lives would become better, but in fact?  Yiyi's letter shattered everyone's dreams, including Kuyang's.

    "It is easy to conquer the world, but difficult to defend the country. My sister is a woman, so I only rely on personal speculation.  However, in my sister's opinion, most of the generals in the Taiping Army only know how to go into battle to kill the enemy. How many of them know how to govern a country?  Regarding people's livelihood, national defense, flood control, and taxation, my brother really thinks that those generals who are only good at fighting can be as competent as holding a pen while dismounting?  ]

    "" Looking at what was written in the letter, the withered sheep remained silent.The original smile on his face gradually faded away.

    "It is undeniable that Yi Yi's words hit the weak point every time.

    Yes, the Taiping Army has many brave generals, but what it lacks is talented people who are well-read in poetry and books. It is undeniable that there are many literati in Jiangnan who are proficient in this art. However, how can a truly discerning literati choose to  Join the Taiping Army?  A truly discerning scholar must be able to clearly see the pros and cons of the Taiping Army gaining power, just as Kuyang's sister Yiyi paraphrased the words of the Eight Wise King Li Xian in her letter.

    When the imperial court gains the momentum, the Jiangnan is in chaos, and it is not as good as the north; and the Taiping thief is even more chaotic, and the country will disaster.

    You must know that most of the Taiping Army is composed of reckless men like Wei Hu and Xu Le who do not know how to govern the country. If they are asked to serve as civil governors, you can imagine how chaotic the entire Jiangnan will become.

    Even if Wu Heng, the fourth-generation commander of the Taiping Army, was lucky enough to defeat the Zhou army who came to attack and successfully restored the Southern Tang Dynasty, what would happen next?

    If Wu Heng was greedy and continued to gather troops to attack the Zhou Dynasty, the world would be in turmoil and the people would be in dire straits; if he was willing to defend the situation and force the Zhou Dynasty to retreat to Yan, Yu, Xu, and Yang, to put it bluntly, the Zhou Dynasty would only lose money and food.  , the land and the people, the court's operations are still perfect, but what about the Taiping Army, how will they manage the captured land?  How to develop the local economy?  Is it just relying on those reckless men who have not read many books and only know how to fight?

    To put it bluntly, even if Jiangnan chose the Taiping Army, Dazhou would still be Dazhou, and Jiangnan would no longer be Jiangnan. After all, the Taiping Army lacked talented people who were good at governing the country.  A general who shows off his power on the battlefield.  How to ensure that Jiangnan can still be as prosperous under the rule of the Taiping Army as it was under the rule of the Zhou Dynasty?

    If the Taiping Army years ago could barely do this, then the current Taiping Army is obviously insufficient in this regard. After all, the Taiping Army has lost Liu Qing, who is comparable to Changsun Xiangyu and Li Xian.  smart woman.  Compared with Liu Qing, although Wu Heng was ruthless and manipulative, he was only the overlord of one party at best.  Because he doesn't know enough.

    To be fair, Kuyang had actually thought about the things Yiyi mentioned in the letter before, but he just didn't want to mention them. After all, he also had deep feelings for the Taiping Army, but it was undeniable that when he  When he saw every word in his sister's letter, the worries he had expressed in the past could not help but begin to swirl in his mind again.  He was so depressed that he could hardly breathe.

    Fortunately, Yiyi actually doesn¡¯t know much in this area. Not to mention the words and sentences are simple and unpretentious, and even the smoothness is a problem. Some sentences are so dry and difficult to understand that Ku Yang read them several times before he understood them.  In the final analysis, she just wrote in the letter what Xie An, Changsun Xiangyu, and Li Xian said, as well as what she saw and heard.

    But even so, I still wrote three major chapters eloquently.  All I could see was that the dead sheep were covered in cold sweat.  It wasn't until the warm family-like greetings on the last page that Kuyang let out a long sigh of relief.

    [¡­My sister is doing well in Jijing.  Are you doing well in Jiangnan?  Please take good care of your body Remember to wear more clothes when the weather is cold Sister, I have nothing to ask for, I just want my brother to be healthy]

    Those simple sentences seemed to have more weight than the previous pages, making Kuyang look at them again and again, unable to bear to let go.

    "Commander, what did Sister Zun write in the letter?"

    Wang Jian and Xu Chang couldn't help but ask.  In fact, they can guess more or less.  They just want to verify something from the mouth of a dead sheep.

    For example, after reading his sister¡¯s letter, did Ku Yang change his mind and surrender to Zhou Jun?

    It¡¯s not that Wang Jian and Xu Chang were greedy for the glory and wealth they would get after surrendering to the Zhou army, it was just that sometimes.  Once you take a certain step, you can only move forward.  They had already made up their minds to surrender to the Zhou army after rescuing the dead sheep in Jinling, and now they felt a little strange when they were asked to remain loyal to the Taiping Army peacefully.

    "What else can I say? It's the same as before!" With a chuckle, Kuyang slowly put away the family letter, carefully folded it and put it in his arms, shook his head and said, "In the past three years, I can't remember clearly.  I have received so many letters from my sister, and every time she said, don¡¯t cause trouble for your brother-in-law, don¡¯t make the same mistake over and over again, and be sure to cherish yourself, etc., ugh"

    Although he used a sighing tone, the deep warmth in his eyes could not be hidden from Wang Jian and Xu Chang.

    Looking at Wang Jian, Xu Chang whispered, "What does the commander-in-chief mean? - To be disrespectful, the general thought that my sister was right. We in the Taiping Army only know how to fight and kill.  General, what are you talking about about governing the country? Furthermore, today¡¯s Taiping Army, the general feels that it is no longer as united as it was when Chen Shuai and Her Royal Highness the Princess were there"

    ¡°??¡­¡± Kuyang frowned when he heard this.

    Xu Chang is right. Thinking about it, when Chen Chang, Liang Qiuhao, the third-generation commander-in-chief of the Taiping Army, and Tianshangji Liu Qing, the nominal leader, were still there, how could something like Wei Zhuang's plot to kill Wei Hu happen within the Taiping Army in order to gain military power?  thing?  How could Wang Wei and Lu Yong die unjustly and indirectly in their own hands?

    Absolutely impossible!  Because Liang Qiuhao's name is intimidation, his reputation as a one-man army is not for nothing.  Even Fei Guo, the commander-in-chief of the Jizhou Army who is showing off his bravery outside Guangling City and repeatedly defeated the Taiping Army's general Zhao She and the right army general Du Fang with one enemy and two enemies, was initially afraid of Liang Qiuhao's bravery.  Don't dare to betray.

    And Wu Heng, who succeeded Liang Qiuhao and became the fourth-generation commander-in-chief of the Taiping Army, was far less intimidating than his predecessor Liang Qiuhao.

    Furthermore, the characters of the two people are also extremely different.  Liang Qiuhao was a loyal man. Although he was the commander, he took the lead and stayed behind when the battle went badly. He never gave up or abandoned any Taiping soldier. On the other hand, Wu Heng, in order to exclude Liang Qiuhao and Liu Qing, became a Taiping soldier.  The real person in charge of the army secretly leaked information to the Zhou army, hoping to use the Zhou army to eradicate the two men.

    ?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? A judgment of who's better.

    If Liang Qiuhao is a hero respected by everyone, and although he met a tragic end, he is still respected, sought after and loyal to many people, then Wu Heng is simply a ruthless hero.  They always focus on interests and do not care about human feelings.

    And Kuyang already has a clear understanding of this.

    ??It is clear that Wei Hu is completely devoted and loyal to Wu Heng, but what about Wu Heng?  When Wei Hu was alive, he had a lot of trust in Wei Hu, but after Wei Hu died in the battle.  However, Wu Heng immediately ordered the withdrawal of the Jinling Army and Tianquan Army, and did not even attend Wei Hu's funeral. He was so heartless and unjust, even though Wu Heng had his subordinate Tianshu killed in order to win over him.  The army was expanded to 20,000 people, but it was difficult to get Kuyang to feel even an ounce of loyalty to him.

    Thinking of this, Kuyang suddenly lowered his voice and asked, "Is there any way to contact Zhou Jun outside the city?"

    Wang Jian and Xu Chang were stunned for a moment when they heard this, and then their faces showed a bit of joy, and they looked at each other.  Wang Jian lowered his voice and said, "As long as the commander's words are enough! - Although there is no way to contact Zhou Jun for the time being, we can find a way to contact that person"

    "That one?" Kuyang was stunned for a moment, then suddenly realized, "Mo Fei! - the murderer of the Dongling people!"

    You must know that Guangling is where the main force of the Taiping Army lies. As long as this place can be eliminated, the remaining Taiping Army will no longer pose a threat.  Therefore, it is not difficult to guess that the Zhou army will attack Guangling with great force.  Completely annihilate this main force of the Taiping Army.  At least Wu Heng, the fourth-generation commander-in-chief of the Taiping Army, and his direct henchmen must die.

    Because of this, Zhou Jun is currently busy supervising the construction of various large-scale engineering equipment, such as rams, well rails, etc.

    But before that, there is a problem that needs to be solved, and that is the Guangling assassin who secretly aided the Taiping Army

    ??Assassin battle!

    Before the war between the Zhou Army and the Taiping Army begins in Guangling, the assassins from both sides will be the first to start a bloody battle.  This is just like Zhou generals Fei Guo and Ma Dan keen on competing with the Taiping Army for hegemony in the outfield of Guangling City.  As long as which side's assassins win, it means that which side will have the upper hand before the war starts, and the other side will be attacked from the shadow side.

    ??For example, the assassination of generals.

    Although this seems a bit disgraceful, it is true as the saying goes.  How can there be any saying that benevolence and righteousness are not benevolence and righteousness?  Even Xie An, as long as he can reduce the number of casualties of his own soldiers during the war, then Xie An will send his assassins to assassinate the generals of the Taiping Army, because this is what an army commander should do.  As for whether the Taiping soldiers will suffer too many losses during the war, that should be considered after the war, because at present, the Taiping Army is the enemy!

    As Kuyang expected, on May 11th, the fifth year of Jingzhi of the Great Zhou Dynasty, when tens of thousands of Zhou soldiers outside the city were busy building siege equipment, the Dongling assassins led by Mo Fei and Ding Qiu and the Jinling assassins  The assassins have taken the lead in infiltrating and attacking Guangling. Their targets are not the Taiping guards in the city, but the assassins led by Wan Li, the leader of the Guangling assassins who secretly assisted Wu Heng in taking Guangling, and Qin Keer.

    It has to be said that the battle scene that night was simply fierce and tragic. As many as six to seven hundred assassins from both sides fought from the south city to the north city, and from the east city to the west city. In terms of the intensity of the battle, it was no less fierce than an army of ten thousand people fighting.  .

    ???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? On that dark night with just a hint of moonlight, countless black shadows were jumping and running on the roofs of the houses in Guangling City, and from time to time, warm corpses fell from the air.  Or he fell to the street and was so startled that the Taipei sergeants patrolling the street blew the alarm;It hit a house, frightening the men of that family to huddle in the corner of the house and tremble with their arms around their wives and children.

    Daggers, blow darts, hand crossbows, and poisons were all used. The fight between assassins was definitely not something ordinary soldiers could intervene in.

    During this period, there were actually many teams of Taiping soldiers who received orders to help their own Guangling assassins. However, the result was that even the soldiers of the main force of the Taiping army could not help at all in the fight between these assassins.  A group of twenty soldiers were killed by a group of assassins in the blink of an eye, with such skill that the assassins were not even exposed.

    And this is the reason why Xie An has considered asking the Dongling assassins and Jinling assassins to join the army several times before. Compared with ordinary soldiers, the assassins are simply the kings of the night, especially Mo Fei, who is almost the best in the world.  An assassin's murderer.

    ¡°Swish, swish, swish¡ª¡ª¡±

    ¡°More than a dozen thin threads, invisible to the naked eye in the dark night, shot out of Mo Fei¡¯s hand and shot into the building walls on both sides of the street, resembling a giant spider web.

    This was Mo Fei's unique skill of ground pressure that Mo Fei learned from Jin Ling'er in order to snipe Liang Qiu Hao. Although he never fully demonstrated it in front of Liang Qiu Hao due to some changes, this time, this trick finally worked.  The place of martial arts.

    Occupying an absolute geographical advantage, Mo Fei was not afraid to fight against twenty or so Guangling assassins alone. On the other hand, those Guangling assassins were afraid of being cut by those thin wires as tough as iron wires, so they did not dare to move without permission.  , but were killed one by one by Mo Fei.

    [Vulnerable]

    Although Mo Fei never spoke from beginning to end, the look in his cold eyes could not be hidden from others.

    Suddenly, Mo Fei's eyes flashed, and from the corner of his eye he caught a glimpse of a sneaky figure in the alley not far away.

    With a cold snort, Mo Fei magically flew over the ledge and quietly came up behind the man. The dagger in his hand was pointed towards the man's neck. As soon as he pulled it slightly, the man was obviously going to die on the spot.

    At this moment, Mo Fei suddenly stopped his movements because he found that the person holding a sharp blade was holding a sharp blade in his backhand, and the tip of the blade was pressed tightly against his chest.

    "You want to kill me? Captain Mo Du?" the visitor chuckled in a low voice.

    That familiar voice made Mo Fei's calm eyes reveal a strange color.

    "Brother-in-law?" (To be continued, please search Piaotian Literature, the novels will be better and updated faster!
