Chapter 552

This method is certainly good, but the problem is that there is really not much time left for them. Moreover, Zhao Cheng's Mauryan dynasty's language can only be said to be half-bad. He discussed such a thing all day with others, let alone negotiated with people of the high caste of the Mauryan dynasty.

"The current plan is to take over a family of a higher caste first, and then talk about it."

As Zhao Cheng spoke, he focused his attention on the woman from the Mauryan Dynasty who was captured by Zhao Hu. What he meant was obviously both Zhao Hu and Hu Hai.

"Sir, treating this woman like this. Once she returns to her family, what should her tribe members take the lead in attacking? After all, I only have these people at this time."

After thinking for a while, Hu Hai raised his own question. Yes, they could indeed fool the woman's family according to Zhao Cheng's idea, and then the woman's family united other nearby high-caste families. In this way, they could gather a group of somewhat large size in a short time.

Moreover, the advantage of doing this is that although these high-caste families may not have a lot of people, they had a lot of money and resources in the past. Although the entire Mauryan dynasty is currently clamoring to abolish high-caste, many places that were not occupied by the Qin Dynasty. High-caste people still rely on their family's huge resources and money, either bribing soldiers or hiring mercenaries to maintain their family's dominance in their own territory.

But they obviously understood that if there was no place stronger than the Seleuth Dynasty, it would be only a matter of time before their privileges were taken down by the new rulers, and of course, this woman's family also included.

"It's okay, let's go there for three of us, and everyone else is waiting here. No matter what happens, I will guarantee you both of us without worries!"

There were naturally no one else who said this except Zhao Hu. Moreover, Hu Hai and Zhao Chengdu knew that he could say such words not because he had confidence in his abilities out of thin air, but because he had been to that family when he kidnapped the woman before, so he should have a clear understanding of the family's guards, so he said such a guarantee.

"Okay! Since that's the case, of course we have to try it. The three of us will set off in two days. The woman will stay here, which is also a constraint on the family. I still need to learn some language from her in the past two days, otherwise if I lose this opportunity because of my speech improperly, it will be really not worth the loss."

Hu Hai had no objection to Zhao Cheng's proposal. After Zhao Cheng went to learn the language, he thought for a while, then called Zhao Hu to his side and whispered a few words. After hearing this, Zhao Hu nodded and left.

Two days later, Qi Yi and the woman from the Mauryan Dynasty were left in place, and the three of them set out for the city that Zhao Hu had been to before.

When he arrived at a secluded place outside the city, Zhao Hu took out three sets of clothes from the package behind him, and the three of them changed their clothes with all their might. This time, they walked towards the city with great swagger.

This is a medium-sized city, but because it is close to the seaside and is far away from the Mauryan Dynasty, it has not yet been affected by the occupation of the Qin army. However, there are very few people in this city, and there are some guards patrolling on the streets.

"This city is controlled by two high caste families, so since the news that the capital of the Mauryan Dynasty was destroyed came here, almost most of the people of the lower caste have fled. Now only high castes and mercenaries they hired heavily. It seems that they are not optimistic about this city. Some valuables have been loaded with carriages by the nobles here, as if they may escape at any time because of the arrival of the Qin army."

Because Zhao Hu had already had a very detailed observation of the place when he came before, he began to introduce the situation here as soon as several people entered the city.

"Escape? Where can they escape? This place is already very close to the beach. Once the cavalry of the Qin Dynasty occupied it, they will be in a situation of doom!" Zhao Cheng snorted coldly, obviously not very satisfied with the IQ of these nobles of the Mauryan Dynasty.

While observing and walking in the streets of this city, the three of them went to the family where Zhao Hu kidnapped the woman. Before, they were wearing the clothes of the Mauryan nobles, and there were not many people on the street, so no one paid attention to the three of them.

But as they went deeper, their strange appearance was discovered. At the beginning, someone pointed at them, but later, I don’t know which knowledgeable person shouted in the street, saying that their appearance was the appearance of the Qin people of the Mauryan Dynasty.

As a result, the mercenaries patrolling the streets suddenly surrounded. At this time, as the high castes above the Mauryan Dynasty, they hated the people of the Qin Dynasty the most. Now, the three of them appeared on their streets in a panic, and each of them had anger.

Such a scene was almost something that the three of them could have thought of. Just when these people surrounded them, some wanted to catch the three of them, and some wanted to see what the Qin people looked like, Zhao Cheng, standing in the middle, shouted at a guy in front of him who seemed to be the leader of a mercenary, and spoke a naughty Mauryan Dynasty language.

Although Hu Hai and Zhao Hu still couldn't understand what he meant, it was obvious that after he finished speaking, the mercenary leader was stunned for a moment, and then signaled the sergeant under his command to stop and step forward.

Finally, the general turned his head and went to the tall mansion behind him, leaving a few of his men here to look at Zhao Cheng and others.

"What? The person who came claimed to be the former prince of Daqin?"

"Yes, he said that if you want to continue the high castes of the Mauryan Dynasty, you'd better let them in and talk."

At this time, the mercenary general was reporting this matter to the patriarch of one of the families. Of course, he knew that the two families in the city were almost crazy during this period. They knew that once the epidemic stopped spreading, the cavalry of the Qin Dynasty would definitely come to take over the city. The consequences of taking over the city were also very obvious, which was to abolish the privileges of their higher castes, confiscate all their private property, and then distribute their industries to the people of the lower castes.

In this way, not only will their privileges be lost, because the people of low-level castes were notorious before, but once they reached the same level, they would basically be retaliated against. For those of them, such a result would be worse than death.

During this crisis, three people from the Qin Dynasty suddenly came. Although they were mysterious and didn’t know whether they were true or not, they would definitely not have such an opportunity in the future.

They may be liars, but they are definitely not the same as the people of Daqin. The patriarch of this nobleman believes that in the current situation, the people of Daqin will not risk being killed and go to such a far place to cheat, right?

"Go and summon those people. If they can really help our nobles of the Mauryan Dynasty, that's good. If I can't, I will kill a few people from the Qin Dynasty to relieve my hatred."

The patriarch gritted his teeth and gave such an order, but he thought that it was such a time. What else could he do if he didn't see him? He had to be a silly horse, right?

In this way, with the eyes of the crowd like a gorilla visiting a zoo, the three of them were invited into the mansion of the noble patriarch.

This made the onlookers a little confused. They thought to themselves that this was not a native of the Qin Dynasty, nor was it an enemy of our high-ranking caste? Why should they be killed directly?

As soon as the three of them entered the patriarch's mansion, they had no other feeling. Instead, they attracted the magnificent decorations in their mansion. They thought to themselves that no wonder the lower castes of the Mauryan dynasty hated people of the higher castes so much. The gap between the rich and the poor was too big. Compared with them, the nobles of the Qin Dynasty became poor.

In order to deal with this person, Zhao Cheng obviously had some remarks. So after arriving at this person's mansion, Zhao Cheng and the other three were so proud that they had no intention of taking this high-ranking patriarch seriously.

Zhao Cheng and Hu Hai even sat on a bench in the room before they could wait. This obviously did not take this high-class patriarch seriously.

Because Zhao Cheng had already reported himself to his family and said that Hu Hai was the younger brother of the current Emperor of Qin and the prince of the former Emperor of Qin, the patriarch did not stop the performance of these people.

Because he knew that once what they said was true, there would be more places to curry favor with them in the future, and whether his family could survive in this situation this time depends on them.

"You are the person in charge here. If you are not, please come quickly."

Zhao Cheng has been practicing this sentence for a long time, and everything else can be said to be unpleasant, but this sentence must be said carefully, because the result of his discussion with Hu Hai was that no matter what kind of people from the Mauryan Dynasty they were facing, they would show a transcendent status, rather than as if they were asking for the nobles of the Mauryan Dynasty this time. Only in this way can those people from the Mauryan Dynasty feel mysterious and thus believe them.

Although the clan leader saw Zhao Cheng's words awkward, he and Hu Hai sat next to him still had a somewhat noble demeanor. Moreover, Zhao Hu, who was standing beside them, also had a momentum of being arrogant without anger, and he was obviously not an ordinary person.

So the patriarch did not reject their behavior, but smiled, then walked to Hu Hai and Zhao Cheng, and used gestures and slow Mauryan dynasty language to show that he was the person in charge of this place and had the final say.

Zhao Cheng and Hu Hai looked at each other, and then Hu Hai nodded slightly, looking at it, which meant that Zhao Cheng would continue to ask. Of course, these were all things they had discussed before they came.

"This is the younger brother of the Emperor of Daqin. He also has an extremely high status in the territory of Daqin. However, because of his disagreement with his brother, he came here with anger. Daqin is now going to abolish the privilege of your high castes. My son is going to gather you together and fight against his brother. If you don't dare, it doesn't matter. There are many high castes and mercenaries in the north city, and they dare!"

What Zhao Cheng said was even more rebellious. The implication was that we came here to help you, but if you were too slap in decision-making, we would leave, and there would be many people queuing up behind.

The patriarch was not an ordinary person to be able to control such a city under such circumstances. Although he thought that the credibility of these Qin people should be fine, he could not just hand over himself and the army he hired to them.

"You guys still have to wait a little bit. I don't have the final say in this city alone. There is also a family whose patriarch is rushing here and will arrive soon. Once he arrives, we will make a decision immediately."

The clan leader explained this sentence several times, and finally Zhao Cheng understood it. Zhao Hu had told them about the city being controlled by two families before, so Zhao Cheng nodded slightly after hearing it, and then signaled the clan leader to give them some water so that he could start waiting leisurely.

The facts proved that what the patriarch said before was indeed true. Before he could catch a stick of incense, he saw another middle-aged man coming over with panting. After arriving, he saw Hu Hai and Zhao Cheng sitting on the bench. He was stunned for a moment, and then walked to the previous patriarch.

The previous patriarch briefly told him the situation, then came to Hu Hai, bowed slightly, and introduced: "This is the head of another family in the city. If I am here, the matter in this city can basically be settled."

When Zhao Cheng heard this, he knew that the main topic was coming. The people in charge of the matter were in place. It was undoubtedly time for you to draw a picture of the way.

Although Hu Hai has the royal blood of the Qin Dynasty, he is not stupid. If you have soldiers and generals in your hands, you will definitely not be able to go to this corner to recruit soldiers and horses, right? So if you don’t give others a reason, it is impossible for them to use your own resources for you.
