Chapter Four Coercion and Incentives

Pei Wenjin was a little embarrassed. Although Xiao Yinyin was a little rude, he could do nothing. For twenty years, these big families have become local tyrants. His predecessor violated the interests of the Xie family. Several big families joined forces to cause trouble and jointly impeach the court.

The ex was eventually dismissed, and these aristocratic families controlled 80% of the land in Dunhuang, and half of the food in the Dunhuang army was supplied by them. Pei Wenjin himself was a child and could not afford them. He had to smile and stand up and say goodbye. Qi Wutan

Window qi

Only Yang Yuanqing and Xiao Yinyin were left in the room. Yang Yuanqing smiled and said, "When you enter, the people will not fight with the officials. Are you not afraid of annoying him if you are so rude to Taishou Pei?"

Xiao Yinyin glanced at him and said coldly: "My Xiao family is law-abiding and paying taxes and grains. This is enough. Why should we please the government?"

"Does my husband include me when he comes to the government?" Yang Yuanqing smiled.

Xiao Yinyin was silent for a moment and said, "General Yang, I have no intention of annoying you, but I just said that the Xiao family can't help recruiting troops in the army."

"I'm not just referring to your Xiao family, I hope the Xiao family will come forward and join forces with several major families to mobilize the Han people in Dunhuang to sign up for the army, rather than secretly restraining them."

"Secretly restraining the elbow!"

Xiao Yinyin's almond eyes showed a sharp light and stared at Yang Yuanqing, "General Yang means that we are blocking the army's recruitment, is that right?"

Yang Yuanqing nodded, "If there were no secret obstacles from several major families, how could no one of the soldiers join the army? This is impossible. I can only understand that you are doing things in secret."

Xiao Yinyin stood up, "General Yang, you have to tell evidence when speaking. What evidence do you have to say that we are destroying?"

Yang Yuanqing looked at her with interest and was angry, shook her head and smiled, "There is no evidence, but I feel that there is nothing wrong with it."

Xiao Yinyin's face turned red, "Please leave! The Xiao family does not welcome guests like you."

Yang Yuanqing's smile disappeared and he said coldly: "Husband, I want to remind you that I am not here to be a guest, I am here to talk about serious matters, I am now giving you face. Since you don't want this face, then good!

Son, come and talk to me yourself.”

Yang Yuanqing stood up and left without looking back. Xiao Yinyin was stunned. She felt something was wrong. She hurriedly chased after him, "General Yang, please stay!"

Yang Yuanqing stopped and turned around and looked at her coldly. Xiao Yinyin sighed, and Qian Yingying bowed: "I apologize to General Yang for his rudeness just now. Please ask General Yang to enter a large number of people. Let's talk again, please!"

She asked Yang Yuanqing to go back. Seeing that she was tactful, Yang Yuanqing turned around and returned to the room with her. Xiao Yinyin knelt down and personally prepared Yang Yuanqing's seat. She was a woman who could endure humiliation and bear heavy burdens. She knew that she could not afford to offend Yang Yuanqing's strength.

Military head.

Yang Yuanqing sat down and smiled and said, "My husband really has the style of a head of family. He knows that he will do something and not do something."

Xiao Yinyin heard that he was ridiculing her for being rude to Pei Wenjin. She covered her mouth and smiled, using her unique charm to resolve the embarrassment between them, "If I don't chase General Yang back, I don't know that General Yang will use it.

What method can be used to deal with the Xiao family?"

"Isn't it easy to deal with a wealthy and powerless Xiao family like you? For example, if you collude with Tuyuhun, you will be searching the family and exterminate the clan."

"But you have no evidence?"

Yang Yuanqing looked at her and laughed, "Fuji Xiao, I thought you were smart, but you still disappointed me. Is it not easy to get evidence? In fact, I don't need any evidence to deal with a family like you. I

Just say that you colluded with Tuyuhun and directly searched your family and wiped out your family. Who dares to speak for you?"

Xiao Yinyin's face was gone, and she lowered her head sadly. In the face of strength, her powerful tyrant was really vulnerable.

After a while, she sighed and said, "We did not deliberately stop the general from recruiting troops, and it was too late, but we have an agreement here, which was a custom that we had when we first came to Dunhuang. Twenty years ago, when we first came to Dunhuang County.

, We made an oath that we would never serve the Sui court. Twenty years have passed. Although the Han people in other parts of Dunhuang County have broken this oath and many of their children have joined the army, tens of thousands of Southern Dynasties in Dunhuang City

But he did not break this oath. There was no one in the Dunhuang garrison. This is why the general could not recruit soldiers."

"So that's it, there's a reason inside."

Yang Yuanqing pondered for a moment and said, "I hope this time can break this convention. In fact, this is also for your own good. I will take all the three thousand troops in Dunhuang. In this way, the Dunhuang County generals have no soldiers to guard, and at this time you will become a group of people.

The slaughtered lambs, Tuyuhun, Qiang, Iron, Turk, and Turk, anyone can wash away all you blood. I recruit soldiers to stay to defend Dunhuang City and protect you, the Southern Han Han, you can consider it yourself! If the Han Han in Dunhuang

If I still refuse to join the army, then I have to recruit Qiang to protect you. I believe you know the pros and cons of this more clearly than me."

After saying that, Yang Yuanqing stood up and said goodbye, "You can discuss it. I will give you a time to be alive. It is tomorrow and late. If you still insist on your oath, I will go to Qiangzhong to recruit Dunhuang defenders."

"I know, I will discuss with several other major families immediately."

Yang Yuanqing walked to the door, and he remembered something again, turned around and smiled at Xiao Yinyin and said, "I saw the magistrate of Luo County Xiao County today. He should be your relative! How could he appear in Dunhuang? It's really strange!"

Yang Yuanqing turned around and left. Xiao Yinyin was stunned for a while. Yang Yuanqing's strange smile made her feel a little chill. Could it be that Yang Yuanqing knew Xiao Xian's secret?

In fact, Xiao Yinyin didn't want to participate in the Nanhua Club. She was not interested in this kind of competition. The Great Sui Dynasty was so powerful, how could a small Nanhua go down? Her clan brother was undoubtedly in a dream. She just saw it.

It is the share of Xiao to give them some support.

Yang Yuanqing's words were undoubtedly a kind of warning, which made her dare not think about it anymore. Xiao Yinyin was even more worried about recruiting soldiers at this time, and she was a little unable to sit still. As soon as Yang Yuanqing left, she immediately sent an invitation to invite several other major families.

When she came to Xiao’s house for a meeting, Yang Yuanqing’s words touched her heart.

‘In this way, if the Dunhuang County generals have no soldiers, you will become a group of lambs to be slaughtered. Tuyuhun, Qiang, iron, and Turkic, anyone can wash away all you blood.’

‘If the Han people in Dunhuang still refuse to join the army, then I have to recruit Qiang people to protect you!’

Xiao Yinyin couldn't imagine what the consequences would be if the Qiang people were recruited to protect them. It would undoubtedly be to invite wolves to shepherd the sheep. How could this be done?

The powerful influence of several major families in Dunhuang City was indeed amazing. After an hour, the three recruitment sites in Dunhuang City began to change. They were originally deserted recruitment sites, but soon there was a steady stream of recruitment sites.

The amazing young man came to join the army, and a long line began to line up in front of each recruiting point.

Although Dunhuang City has a strong academic style, not every child learns literature, and there are still many who practice martial arts. Many of them are also strong and can be said to be both civil and military.

Each recruitment point is crowded with young people coming to join the army, but not everyone can join the army. Those who are good at riding are preferred. If they really don’t know how to ride, they can only lift sixty kilograms of stone lock three times.

, also considered to be passed.

Behind the three recruitment sites is a small schoolyard. Anyone who registers to ride a shelter will come here to take the exam. The schoolyard is dusty, and dozens of young children are riding horses and leaping arrows.

The surroundings were filled with people watching the fun, and they applauded from time to time.

Yang Yuanqing sat on the side of the school field with a big piece of wood watching the exams in the school field, but he was obviously absent-minded and seemed not paying attention to the riders' performance.

At this time, Yang Dalang hurriedly walked forward, "Young Master!"

Yang Yuanqing was excited and asked immediately: "Is there any?"

"Yes! More than twenty people have entered."

Yang Dalang handed a list to Yang Yuanqing, "This is the children of several major families in Dunhuang, and they are basically both literary and military."

Yang Yuanqing took it and looked carefully. It was all the children of Xiao, Xie, Lu, Shen, and Chen Wu's family, and there were about twenty-five.

"Have you asked them? Would you like to be a civilian officer?"

"I asked them specifically when recruiting soldiers. Most of them were willing, but only three people were unwilling to do civilian positions."

Yang Yuanqing returned the list to him and reminded him: "It is best to arrange these knowledge in the middle in order. You can go to Taishou Pei for help."

"I understand, let's go and find Taishou Pei."

Yang Dalang turned around and went. Looking at Yang Dalang's back as he walked away, Yang Yuanqing showed a knowing smile on his face. His army was full of northern soldiers, and there were basically no southern troops, but he really needed some children from the southern families to serve him.

.

Xiao Xian can fight for them, why can't he?

Outside the Xiao Mansion, Xiao Xian was holding his hands behind his back and pacing back and forth with some anxiety. Although Xiao Xian and Xiao Yinyin belonged to the royal family and both had surnames Xiao, they were actually just distant blood relatives, and they were very far apart. Xiao Yinyin and Yuwen Chengdu were very

Recently, their grandfather is a brother.

This time Xiao Xian came to Dunhuang to develop his power, but it was not smooth. Although Xiao Yinyin said that she was willing to pay 30,000 yuan to support his career, she had already made a clear statement and refused to join the South China Association. Moreover, Xiao Yinyin also politely declined to develop for the South China Association.

Requests from other families.

This made Xiao Xian very frustrated, but he could not reveal the secrets of the South China Association at will. This is the principle of the South China Association developing members in recent years. It must be trusted from an absolute trust and then dig deeper slowly. Therefore, the South China Association in recent years has been under the leadership of the South China Association.

It has not developed rapidly, and it has only increased by 3,000 members from five years ago. Safety is the most important thing.

This afternoon, Xiao Xian met Yang Yuanqing and saw Pei Ju, which made him feel a little alert. He could not stay in Dunhuang City, and he would have to leave at the latest tonight. However, he was unwilling to be demoted to Dunhuang County.

These southern tribes are all authentic direct descendants of major southern families. If they can be won over, their Nanhua Society will grow unprecedentedly and will also be able to obtain Dunhuang as a place of development.

He decided to try to convince Xiao Yinyin again, but Xiao Yinyin refused to see him. At this time, a child of the Xiao family came out and said to him: "My head, please leave Dunhuang as soon as possible."

Xiao Xian was stunned, "Does the head of the family refuse to see me?"

The children of Xiao’s family shook their heads, “The head of the family said that she was not feeling well and did not want to see her husband. I’m sorry, please leave!”

The children of Xiao's family turned around and walked back to the mansion, closed the door with a loud bang, and froze Xiao Xian outside the door.

"Young Master, don't be too anxious."

Wang Mo, who was standing by, could understand Xiao Xian's depression, so he comforted him, "Bi Jing and they didn't live in the south, they wouldn't accept our plan to restore the country so quickly, and I doubt Yang Yuanqing is here, so they dare not have any ideas.

, this time I will take it as a test, and I will come and convince them again next time."

Xiao Xian had no choice but to sigh. This time he met Yang Yuanqing, and he was also unlucky.

"Let's go! Let's leave Dunhuang City now."
