At this moment, the Brahmins and Kshatriyas below were a little commotion, but most of them understood what Li You meant and looked at Li You with no hostility.
For Brahmins and Kshatriyas, what they fear most is losing their power. Li You threatened and intimidated, but also gave guarantees. As Li You said, the Han Dynasty was not interested at all and had no I need to play tricks with you!
As for paying grain and collecting taxes, these Brahmins don't mind at all. Isn't it just another person paying grain and paying taxes? It used to be given to the Dayue clan, but now it is given to the Han Dynasty. As long as their power and status are guaranteed, it doesn't matter who pays food and taxes.
Anyway, if Brahmins don’t farm, that’s the business of the people below. Whether the two-legged animals below are alive or dead has nothing to do with the Brahmins. Anyway, if you really want to say it, the Brahmins and Kshatriyas have really not cared about it for so many years. The so-called Vaishyas and Shudras.
"We have no intention of scheming with you. Whatever your status was in the past, it is still the same now. The Han Dynasty will not live with you. The power of life and death you once had still still exists. The Han Dynasty neither wants to care nor is too lazy. Go ahead and take care of it." Li You changed his previous fair and open expression of coldness and behaved like a kindly man with a white beard.
The following Brahmins and Kshatriyas who came to attend the meeting were obviously more at ease. Although the words were unfounded, the Han Empire could say it in front of so many of them, so the possibility of going back on it was unlikely. This was for these people. This is good news for the higher ups of the Brahminical system.
"We will not interfere with your handling of those animals, but who of you dare to stretch your hands on us Han people..." Li You paused for a moment, with a slight chill sweeping over everyone. At that moment, All the participants felt what a natural enemy is.
In fact, the Brahmins and Kshatriyas really have no intention of taking care of the Han Dynasty. They actually have an attitude of living their own lives and not interfering with each other. After all, what the Han army wants is food, some crops, and at most some minerals. What.
Basically, you don’t need anything else. The problem is that the Brahmins used to pay the Yuezhi the same way, but now they just changed the target.
If the Han Dynasty had not shown its will to destroy the Brahmin system before, that is, the existence of the god Jialan, which made the Brahmin top brass feel threatened, these Brahmin top brass who were already in the areas occupied by the Han Dynasty would definitely pretend that nothing had happened and they should pay for the food. , the tax should be paid.
This group of people was a group of outstanding exploiters, so outstanding that it shocked people. Even in the 17th and 18th centuries, the British invaders found that it was easier for the Brahmins to pay taxes than to occupy India themselves. For this reason, the British returned The Brahmin worked as a thug for some time.
Otherwise, India would probably be just a place name today. If the British had not discovered that the Brahmins had extremely excellent exploitative capabilities and could stabilize the regional political situation, in order to benefit the British Empire, they helped the Brahmins unify the entire India. , the internal struggle between the Brahmins will only allow India to maintain the structure of a big country and a bunch of states.
In short, the Brahmin system is an excellent exploitative system, and due to the unscrupulousness of the upper class, this system is extremely traitorous. Therefore, after confirming that the Han Dynasty has no intention of eradicating them, the middle and upper levels of the Brahmin system have no idea about having another father. There is no pressure, and the food is good. Brahmins like this kind of father who doesn't care.
As for asking for land, Brahmins are actually not willing to give it. Even if they don't actually farm, it is a habit of Brahmins to keep the land. Even if it is left uncultivated, it is acceptable. But this statement can not say.
The victors are entitled to ask for everything. Brahmins know this very well, because it has been like this a thousand years ago, and it was still like this when the Great Yuezhi came. But it doesn't matter. As long as the Brahmin system does not collapse, these former victors will become Their nourishment.
Therefore, facing Li You's request, all the middle and high-level Brahmins nodded in agreement. The situation is stronger than others. If you endure it first, you will get back whatever you lose sooner or later.
Li You looked at the obedient middle- and high-level Brahmins below and raised his eyebrows slightly. He felt a little uncomfortable. No one was struggling. He wanted to kill a few to shock him, but now he was a little uncomfortable with it.
However, Li You's initial goal is to maintain stability, whether it is to be a submissive citizen or not. Once he has enough strength, he will take action. If he is not strong enough, he will compromise first. If he is strong enough, he will just overturn the table. He has not yet established a firm foothold, so everything is to maintain stability. Lord.
"That's all. You can take half of the property of those who didn't come." Li You said coldly, "We have sent them on their way. We don't mind sharing benefits with friends, but we can't be friends and want to cause trouble." , then don’t blame us for being rude!”
Li You's unabashed murderous intention shocked everyone. Until now, most of these people have not understood that Li You has already posted those he posted, but he did not kill all the middle and high-level Brahmins. After all, in In the Brahmin system, killing a Brahmin is an unbelievable situation.
However, Li You doesn't care about this unspoken rule at all. He doesn't have the capital to flip the table now, but she still has the capital to kill tens of thousands of people. Even if there are unavoidable accidental injuries during the process, as long as Li You makes up his mind, he will kill all the rotten flesh on his body. If you can cut it out with ruthless hands, let alone a mere Brahmin, you will be unlucky if you accidentally kill him!
Therefore, not long after the meeting ended, the high-ranking Brahmans who came to the meeting received information that those high-ranking Brahmans who had been invited by Li You but did not come on time were all dead, and they were all hacked to death with swords, and their bodies were still left on the spot. .
Even when the incident happened, the Han soldiers did not mind people watching at all, and had no intention of driving them away. They attacked directly in front of the family members of the Brahmins who came to attend the meeting. Ma Zhong led the team, and the Shesheng Battalion fired at close range, directly attacking them. People blow up.
There was no resistance during this period, but it was completely useless. There were even Brahmans who were protected by the masters of inner Qi leaving the body. However, they were completely vulnerable to the army. Even if they rushed out with all their strength, there would be an icy blue streak. The sword fell down and killed him directly.
This is how Li You works. Since he has chosen to cause trouble, he will send you on his way. Ruining his family and destroying his family is something Li You is familiar with.
Therefore, all the middle and high-level Brahmins who attended the meeting were trembling after receiving the news. They were grateful for their choice today. Even if they were laughed at by those who didn't come when they came out this morning, at least they were still alive. Those who laughed at them ,already dead.
Compared with Xu Shu's verbal threats and compromises made in order to maintain stability and maintain a stable environment, Li You's method was much more ruthless.
"Now send another invitation." After the group of middle-level and upper-level Brahmins who were attending the meeting left, Li You made sure that those people had received the news about what happened before, and then knocked on the table to notify Chen Chi, asking him to send another invitation. Go send an invitation.
Chen Chi's scalp was numb. He was really afraid that if Li You continued like this, those people would have no way of living, and finally instigated the Vaishyas and Sudras of the Samadha generation to resist the Han army. Don't look at these people in the Jialan God. It doesn't matter in front of you, but after it grows in scale, their few people here really can't control the situation.
However, before Chen Chi could speak, Li You glanced over with cold eyes, "Go back and finish the greetings. Bring me a copy of the Brahmin rosters from other areas in the evening."
Chen Chi did not dare to say anything and quickly carried out the order. But when he returned home, the Brahmin members who learned about the previous situation once again received Li You's invitation. At this moment, everyone was shocked, and some even directly He suffered a cardiac arrest and met Brahma just like that.
But even so, all the Brahmin families came before night.
"We meet again." Li You said gently. Looking at the gift list presented by this group of people, Li You was very satisfied. It's okay to be afraid of death.
A group of people were trembling. They finally understood that for more than eighty years, the Brahmins would compromise with the Yueshi. Sometimes fists really make sense.
"Okay, don't be afraid. I killed a group of rebels this morning. As you all know, these are the account books and some other items I got from their homes. I said that our Han Dynasty doesn't mind sharing the benefits with you. , but the premise is not to cause any trouble." Li You said with a smile while stroking his white beard.
"To be honest, I'm not familiar with this place, and I'm actually not familiar with you either. These things are placed here. You can share them. When the time comes, the land to the west of Samadhi will be transferred together. These are our Han Dynasty in exchange." Li You said calmly.
"Of course, let's talk about it first. If you don't take it, we will still take away the land west of Samadhi. These are compensation for you and also for your benefit." Li You said calmly, and then left directly Go out, leaving behind a group of Brahmins looking at each other.
"Is this all right?" Chen Chi looked at Li You who came out and said.
"It's impossible for them to stay together in the future." Li You said with a sneer.
No matter how you divide those things, it is impossible to divide them satisfactorily, and the Han Dynasty wants the land in the west, which means that it must be replaced, and this is another problem. The rights and interests of the Vaishyas and Sudras will definitely be sacrificed this time. It's gone, but why should Brahmins sacrifice themselves?
The compensation given by the Han Dynasty was also real. Even Li You didn't bother to look at the things that were searched and suppressed. They were thrown out just for this result. Brahmins who stick together are very troublesome, but Brahmins who bite each other are just a piece of loose sand, and in this world The best thing to deal with is a pile of loose sand, but more importantly, once you bite it, the Han Dynasty who stays out of the matter can become the arbiter.
