What Gou Xi is really worried about is not the weak Wenjia people in front of him.
He shook his head and then said seriously.
"Haven't you ever thought about why the previous masters of these Venga people, the Gupta dynasty in the northwest, didn't respond for so long?"
After hearing Gou Xi's words, everyone started to make wild guesses.
It has been almost a year since they broke out from Piao Kingdom.
In such a long time, they have turned the entire Wenjia Kingdom upside down.
But the Gupta dynasty in the north, the 'master' that the Venga people had claimed before, had not yet sent any decent reinforcements.
"I have heard that the Gupta dynasty was also an emerging country. Its king, Hongyi, was powerful and occupied a state and county land almost as large as the Central Plains."
"A country with such a rich heritage has been slow to respond to us. Don't you think it's strange?"
When Yang Nandi and others heard this, their expressions changed.
They are not fools, so they can naturally imagine how strange this matter is.
For the Gupta dynasty, they were full-fledged invaders.
It was equivalent to the Central Plains Dynasty being invaded and occupied by a group of grassland nomadic bandits in the frontier counties, but the Luoyang court was slow to respond.
Neither troops were sent to encircle or suppress the enemy, nor envoys were sent to question them and ask them to surrender.
It was really beyond the scope of Yang Duryodhana's guess.
"General, what should we do?"
Yang Nandi immediately asked politely.
"What should we do? If we don't understand the reason behind this, who knows what to do? We are all new here, and our words and attitudes are different. Who knows if these Wenjia people are respectful on the surface, but secretly planning something big?"
Gou Xi's words immediately woke everyone up.
"Oh! What the general said makes sense!"
"I'm just telling you, how can there be such a coward in the world? If he wants to kill, he will stick out his neck, and if he wants to beat, he will hand him a whip. He must be holding back some bad water!"
"Yes, yes, these Wenjia people must have hidden evil intentions. They want to paralyze us and then do something inside!"
Suddenly, the generals who were still praising the Venga people for their loyalty and obedience turned into detectives and saw through the conspiracy of the Venga people and the Guptas.
"Yes, I think so too!"
Gou Xi nodded with satisfaction, and then continued.
"Now that the enemy is in the dark, I am in the open, and we are at a numerical disadvantage. We must not easily divide our troops and garrison them in various cities!"
"Even if we really want to establish a settlement and enfeoffment, we have to find out the true and false status of the Guptas, figure out their conspiracy with the Venga people, and then find a way to come up with strategies to deal with it."
"Before there is any foolproof plan, we must join forces and be ready to face unknown enemies at any time!"
It was only then that the generals understood Gou Xi's good intentions.
It turns out it's all for everyone's safety.
It's a pity that they themselves were blinded by the benefits, and they actually began to hate Gou Xi for refusing to share the benefits of the conquest with them.
"General, we are willing to continue to obey orders. As long as there are orders, we will definitely follow them to the end!"
"Yes, General, as long as the threat of King Gupta is eliminated, we are willing to always be at your side!"
Hearing these people's expressions of loyalty, Gou Xi looked moved, but secretly despised in her heart.
These hateful Di Qiangzi, Hao Ting talks about it, but actually uses these words to remind himself.
As long as the threat of King Nagupta is eliminated, they will continue to divide and rule.
"Okay, okay!"
"I am very pleased that you have such thoughtful thoughts!"
Gou Xi and everyone seemed to know each other well and listened to him continue.
"The current plan is to strictly investigate the hidden thieves among the Wenjia people."
"General, how do we investigate this?" Yang Duryodhana asked.
"It's not difficult to say. We have occupied all the territory of the Wenjia people. Starting from tomorrow, we will formulate the tax and corvee for each city and place. Each family must contribute manpower and material resources!"
"Whoever refuses to obey orders must be a collaborator1"
Gou Xi then elaborated on his thoughts.
After listening, everyone took a breath.
Because according to Gou Xi's plan, the taxes and corvees collected are not generally high.
That is quite high!
The heavy taxes and taxes imposed by the Jin Dynasty of the Sima family in Guanzhong back then were nothing compared to Gou Xixiang.
"General, isn't this going too far? Isn't it going to turn Wenjia people against us?"
"Rebel? Haha, I just want them to rebel!" Gou Xi said proudly.
"The enemy is in the open and we are in the dark, so we must try to find the thief in the dark. If we can't find it, then find and kill those who have the courage to rebel!"
"Since you dare to rebel, it means you are a potential enemy!"
Gou Xi's move to lure the snake out of its hole was to force almost half of the Wenjia people to rebel.
Then, he planned to use the method of killing one to serve as a warning to others, and then the remaining Wenjia people would obey obediently.
After all, during this conquest, apart from showing their strength at the beginning, the Wenjia people at the rest of the time had no idea how tough their tactics were.
"Besides this, I also want to send someone to see King Gupta!" Gou Xi smiled mysteriously.
"Meeting that Gupta king? What does this mean?"
"Of course I'm going to ask for a reward!"
"Asking for a reward? How can a barbarian monarch deserve it?"
Hearing Gou Xi's words, Yang Nandi and others all screamed.
Although they are regarded as barbarians by the Central Plains people. "Since you dare to rebel, it means you are a potential enemy!"
