Fan Kuyi was appreciated by Ke Zhengwei and made a lot of contributions in the process of pacifying Jiangnan.
Originally, he could have a smooth journey and become a high-ranking official in Jiangnan.
Just because of a remonstrance a few years ago, he was sent to the barren land of the south.
With Ke Zhengwei's death, a group of military men came to power, and Fan Juyi seemed to have to stay in this small southern city for the rest of his life.
But with Ke Zhengwei's death, Jiangnan also began to be turbulent.
Jiangnan was originally ruled by the four great aristocratic families of Fu Zuo, Liang and Chen.
No matter whether the government or the people, there was no dispute between the four great aristocratic families.
However, the four major families of Fu Zuoliang and Chen had been eradicated by Ke Zhengwei.
They all encountered a group of warriors who were not able to do things well, and the Jiangnan prefectures did not communicate with each other.
As a result, thieves were everywhere, and the powerful ones even plundered prefectures and counties.
At this time of crisis, Ke Zhengwei from a small southern town, along with several rural assistants and hundreds of newly recruited rural warriors, began the process of pacifying the southern thieves.
Facing the roaring gathering of thieves and the complex mountains and hills in the south, Fan Juyi's move seemed ridiculous.
The thieves who could not be eliminated by hundreds of thousands of troops in the south of the Yangtze River can be eliminated with just a few hundred local warriors.
Some people smiled softly after hearing this, laughing at Fan Juyi's overestimation of his own abilities; hundreds of Xiangyong's family members all cried before leaving, as if they were saying goodbye.
But as word of victory came back one after another, those who laughed could no longer laugh; those who cried began to laugh, thankful that their family could achieve military exploits and be glorious from now on.
In more than a year of fighting, Fan Guyi defeated countless thieves and recruited many thieves under his command.
Now there are thousands of them.
The governors of various prefectures were on pins and needles in the face of the swarming thieves.
Now that they heard the news of Fan Guyi's successive victories, they seemed to have seen a savior.
They all donated money to support Fan Guyi, hoping that Fan Guyi could protect their safety.
In June of this year, a giant bandit entrenched in the south gathered thousands of people to attack the state capitals in various places in the south of the Yangtze River.
This bandit was not satisfied with just being the king in the mountains.
He also wanted to separate his territory like Lu Boding and become an enviable role.
Du Feng's army has been patrolling for two years, and neither the bandits in the south nor Lu Boding in the southeast have been able to pacify them.
Now they are marching into Anyun.
The governor of the southern state knew that Du Feng was unreliable, so they asked Fan Juyi for help in desperation.
Fan Kuyi gathered more than 3,000 people, claiming to be an army of 100,000, to support the besieged state capital.
He also deceived others and launched a sneak attack on the besieging thieves, repelling the thieves and relieving the siege of the southern cities.
Fan Kuyi took advantage of the victory to pursue and defeated the besieging thieves.
If it hadn't been for the autumn rain, the heads of several thieves might have been placed on his case.
However, the news of the defeat of the Jagged Army made Fan Juyi unable to rest in peace.
Although he seemed calm on the surface, his heart was in turmoil.
"There is nothing to be anxious about.
There is a countermeasure for everything.
Zu Ci, please explain the matter in detail, and we will think of a solution."
Fan Juyi said slowly.
"It's not Du Feng's fault.
The Iron Blood Army was attacked by Wei Zeng and Zhang Leng, but Du Feng not only refused to provide relief, but took the opportunity to attack Anyun.
Otherwise, the Iron Blood Army would not have been defeated in such a complete mess."
Fu Zuci said sadly.
"The Jiangnan Governor's Mansion and the Iron-Blooded Army are of the same origin.
Although the dynasty is no longer there, there should be moral support for each other.
It's okay if we don't help the Iron-Blooded Army, but attacking the Iron-Blooded Army instead is too much.
Such disregard for morality is not self-defeating.
Do you want to perish?"

Fan Juyi said angrily.
"The Iron-Blooded Army is the most elite force of the dynasty.
Now that the Iron-blooded Army is gone, the Central Plains may fall into the hands of the rebels.
Once the rebels become stronger, given the current situation in Jiangnan, they may all be captured by the rebels."
Fuzu Ci said worriedly.
"I originally thought that Du Feng was just unlucky in his affairs.
As long as he was assisted, Jiangnan could still be stabilized.
Now he is in too deep.
Even the iron-blooded army, the symbol of the dynasty, dares to attack.
There is nothing he dare not do.
Since he is willing to associate with thieves, we don't have to talk to him about morality."
Fan Juyi said decisively.
"You mean we want to replace him, but we only have a few thousand people, and he has hundreds of thousands of people.
We can't fight him."
Fu Zuci was shocked, and then said.
"It's not to replace him, but to put a worthy person in the right position.
He can't put down the bandits in the south, it's just incompetent; he doesn't rescue the state capital that is besieged by bandits, it's just ruthless; but cooperating with the rebels and attacking the Iron-Blooded Army is already a A principled mistake.
Today he can attack the Jagged Army. , we can attack the disobedient state capital tomorrow.
If Jiangnan wants to be stable, all places must be united.
Only by uniting can we completely eliminate the thieves scattered in all directions.
Who will trust him to guard against each other now that they are doing things like this?
Let’s work together to stabilize Jiangnan,” Fan Kuyi said angrily.
"I think you are the only one who can unite Jiangnan now.
You have killed countless thieves in the past year and repelled the thieves who besieged the state capital.
You are also a meritorious person.
I heard that the teacher originally planned to appoint you as Jiangnan.
Governor, you are right to stand up now," Fu Zuci said with his eyes shining.
"Zu Ci, the teacher teaches us miscellaneous studies in order to understand the principles of the world so that we can better implement benevolence and righteousness.
It is not used to fight for power and gain.
Jiangnan needs a virtuous person.
It's me.
I will naturally do a good job.
If it's not me, I will help that person.
It's a tragedy that Dufen is not such a person, because the road to stability in Jiangnan is further away," Fan Juyi said with some sadness.
"I didn't say anything wrong.
You are indeed the most suitable person.
It is naturally my wish that Jiangnan be stable.
I will not deliberately let Jiangnan go in order to fight for power and gain."
Fu Zuci explained.
"Let's not talk about this anymore.
The top priority now is to completely defeat the bandits in front of us."
Fan Guyi said.
"What's the problem?
Kill the leader of the thief, and the others will naturally be at peace."
Fu Zuci said without thinking.

"It is easy to break the thieves in the mountains, but it is difficult to break the thieves in the heart.
If the thieves are not broken in the heart, the thieves in the mountain will never be exterminated.
Think about it, I have been attacking robbers everywhere for more than a year, but the robbers are like leeks.
After cutting off a stubble, another stubble grows.
Running around like this , so what if we want to eliminate the robbers, we can’t just rely on killing people, the priority is to attack people’s hearts.”
"Then what can we do?
Some bandits are just stubborn.
Take the bandit leader we just captured.
He refuses to repent.
What else can we do except killing him?"
Fu Zuci said helplessly.
"Bring him here, I want to interrogate him personally."
Fan Guyi said.
"It's useless.
No matter whether it's torture to extract a confession or good temptation, the bandit won't listen."
Fu Zuci complained, but still ordered the bandit leader to be brought up.
Not long after, a man was brought up.
The man was covered in wounds and had obviously been tortured, but now he had a look of disdain on his face.
He glanced at Fan Juyi, snorted, then raised his head and never looked at the two people in front of him again.
"Why do you want to be a thief?
Isn't it good to live a stable life?"
Fan Juyi asked.
"Haha, how can I live a stable life after being bullied by you dog officials all the time?
Ever since I became a robber, drinking heavily and eating meat, I have never been so happy.
I can live happily according to my heart, and this life is worth it.
It's just that It's a pity that we can't kill more dog officers like you," the thief leader said loudly with his eyes widened.
"I don't believe that a person can have no good intentions and only do evil.
I think you become a thief because you have no choice.
If you tell everything, there may be room for improvement."
Fan Juyi said.
"You want to trick me into surrendering to you, and then let me betray my brother.
I have seen a lot of your tricks.
If you want me to betray my brother, you are paying the wrong attention.
I have killed countless people, and I have no kindness at all.
I just want to do evil.
I just want to kill all those who disobey me, especially dog officials like you.
If they fall into my hands, they will not survive," the thief leader said with a sneer.
"This man is really unreasonable.
Since he is bent on evil, there is no need to reason with him.
Just kill him if you want to.
It is also a good thing that there is less such a person in the world."
Fu Zuci said angrily.
"You said you have no kindness at all.
I don't believe it.
As long as you are a human being, you will never lose your kindness.

As long as your kindness is still there, you can abandon evil and do good.
I believe that as long as you know your way back, everything can be done again.
"Fan Guyi motioned to Fu Zuci not to speak, and then continued.
"I have lost my kindness for a long time.
If you want to kill, just kill, no matter what.
I have seen through your tricks a long time ago."
The leader of the thieves said disdainfully.
"Then take off your clothes."
Fan Juyi said.
The leader of the thieves thought that Fan Guyi was going to execute him, so he took off his shirt without hesitation.
"Take off your pants, too."
Fan Juyi said.
"Kill if you want, it's so troublesome, won't you guys take off your clothes when I die?"
the leader of the thieves complained, but still took off his pants.
"Take off the rest of your clothes, and then walk around the camp a few times."
Fan Juyi continued.
The leader of the thief glared at this and said: "I can't take it off anymore.
If you want to kill me, then kill me.
Why insult me like this again?
I will fight with you."
The leader of the thief failed to reach Fan Guyi and was restrained on the ground by the soldiers.
"The heart of shame and shame is the root of kindness.
Being able to know shame shows that you still have good thoughts in your heart.
You just said that you would not betray your brothers, but did you know that you still have parents?
You were killed as a thief, so that your parents It is unfilial to be old and have no support; it is unkind and unjust for you to be a thief.
You only have your brothers in your eyes.
Are your parents and family members nothing?"
Fan Juyi stepped forward and slapped him.
He slapped him and said loudly.
"I have an older brother, and my parents will not suffer from hunger or cold."
The thief leader heard Fan Juyi's words and was slapped again.
He was immediately discouraged and just murmured.
"My parents are the ones who gave birth to me, and my parents are the ones who raised me.
Even if they are always around to serve me, they can't repay this kindness.
Now that you have shamed my parents and made them sad, what else can you say?"
Fan Juyi said solemnly.
"Then what should I do?
I have no way out now, what can I do?"
The thief actually cried after hearing this.
"I can give you a chance.
As long as you can help our officers and soldiers put down these bandits, serve your crime well, and return to serve your parents in the future, it is not impossible."
Fan Guyi said slowly.
"I can submit to you, sir.
However, I ask you to forgive me for my brothers.
If my brothers die, I will never have peace in my life."

The leader of the thieves weighed the situation again and again and said.
"No problem.
As long as they can redeem themselves and make meritorious deeds, it's okay to forgive them."
Fan Juyi agreed.
The leader of the thieves immediately expressed his submission to Fan Juyi and was willing to help him fight against the southern thieves.
When Fu Zuci saw such a fierce and stubborn thief, he was subdued by Fan Kuyi with just a few words, and he couldn't help but praise him.
"The most important thing is to attack the heart.
As long as you can eliminate the thieves in your heart, there will be no evildoers in the world.
Thieves in the mountains are nothing to be afraid of."
Fan Juyi just said lightly, but sadness flashed in his eyes
