Chapter 46: The Mi Clan Exterminated
Since it is unrealistic to solve the problem of the family now, it is necessary to think about how to alleviate the tense relationship with these families after the Mi family is wiped out.
Nearly half of Xuzhou's population of 3 million is directly or indirectly fed by the family's vendors, which shows how huge the family's power is. Once the family is determined to oppose Li Chen, then it will be difficult for Li Chen to be a soldier or a grain collector in the future.
Hey, the family is really a problem for Li Chen. Killing is definitely not killable, if all the families are swept away, then Xuzhou will inevitably be empty.
In his previous life, Cao Cao's claim that he slaughtered hundreds of thousands of people in Xuzhou actually came from "The Biography of Cao Concealment", "The Biography of Cao Concealment" is a wild history, and it can be seen from the name "The Biography of Cao Cao" that the central idea of this wild history is to belittle Cao Cao.
In the relatively orthodox "Later Han Biography", there is no record of Cao Cao's massacre of the people of Xuzhou. It is only recorded that Cao Cao slaughtered tens of thousands of soldiers of Tao Qian in Surabaya.
Therefore, Li Chen felt that when Cao Cao attacked Xuzhou in his previous life, he may not have really slaughtered the people, and even if he slaughtered the people, he may not have slaughtered the tenants under these families. He Cao Cao was originally a family, and there was no reason to go against the family at all.
Li Chen thought about it for three, and in the end he only thought of a way to ease the relationship with the family, that is, the rain and dew were evenly wet. In addition to getting a large number of gold, silver, grain and grass, the most are shops and Zhuangzi in various parts of Xuzhou.
Shops and Zhuangzi belong to real estate, although they cannot be realized in the short term, but they are also tools that can make money continuously. The Mi family is gone, if Li Chen throws these shops and Zhuangzi out, then there will inevitably be a large number of people who are greedy.
Li Chen is not an indecisive person, he is not good at management, and he does not have the energy to do these business things. Even if Zhuangzi fell into his hands, he originally planned to sell them and exchange them for silver money to expand the army. Since this is the case, simply use these shops and Zhuangzi to win over the rest of the family.
"Yuanlong, those shops of the Mi family, Zhuangzi, your Chen family will take 20%, and I will sell the rest to these Xuzhou families at 30% of the market price." Li Chen paused and said.
Chen Deng arched his hand and said, "The lord is wise, so that they will take the benefits from the Mi family, and naturally they will not stand up for the Mi family." ”
Regarding Li Chen's twenty-percent benefit to Chen, Chen Deng did not refuse. The development of the family is one and the other, if the rest of the family is allowed to carve up the Mi family, their strength will increase, which is equivalent to the weakening of the Chen family's strength. The advantage of 20% is undoubtedly that the Chen family has the majority, so that the Chen family can maintain a dominant position in the family.
Sure enough, everything was rehearsed in the order in which everything was written, as if a script had been written.
As soon as the sky was bright, as soon as the city gate opened, the entire Xuzhou family flocked to Chen Deng's mansion. Chen Deng put the evidence of the Mi clan's collaboration with the enemy in front of everyone, and then set Li Chen's conditions.
One hand is a stick, the other hand is red dates, and I don't think that all people have chosen red dates. In the face of interests, no one is speaking for Mi's.
Judging from the whole thing, in fact, what Mi did was not in the interests of the Xuzhou family. The interests of the Xuzhou family are that Xuzhou is not subject to military disasters, so what they need is a strong state pastor who can protect Xuzhou.
Li Chen may not be the favorite of these Xuzhou families, but there is no doubt about one thing, that is, Li Chen's power is definitely stronger than Liu Bei. Mi's single-minded welcome to Liu Bei into Xuzhou does not conform to the core values of the Xuzhou family. This is one of the reasons why no one speaks up for Mi today.
Of course, the most important reason is that Li Chen gave too much.
At noon, outside the city of Xuzhou, this is the time when the yang energy is at its peak.
In the open space outside Xuzhou City, the outermost part was guarded by more than 10,000 soldiers, and Li Chen could guarantee that as long as Gongsun Zhan or Liu Bei dared to rob people, they would pay a heavy price.
However, the facts still prove that Liu Bei is generous and benevolent on the surface, but in fact he is hypocritical. The reason why the Mi family was detained here and was about to face the disaster of extermination was precisely because Mi Zhu took the risk to save Liu Bei, but in this case, Liu Bei didn't even try to save people.
Directly above the execution ground, a high platform was built, on which was placed a low table, and a tiger skin was spread next to the low table. Li Chen was half-lying on the tiger skin and pretending to sleep.
Where Li Chen is half lying, it is like a fierce tiger descending the mountain, and it is like a giant dragon hovering in the clouds, the momentum is very terrifying, after today, the Xuzhou family will inevitably be very respectful to Li Chen.
At the bottom of the execution ground, there were people crowding to watch the excitement. As the saying goes, it is not a big deal to watch the excitement, and there are many people who do not think to die when they see the funeral. Those who die today will not be able to satisfy the psychological comfort of these poor people.
For the poor people, the two happiest things are that they have become rich, and the second is that other rich people have died.
Although they can't become rich people today, they are also very happy when they see rich people dying in piles.
At this time, Li Chen didn't notice. In the crowd, a delicate-looking girl with the appearance of a small jasper was staring at him viciously. The little girl seemed to be afraid of being recognized, and her little face was plastered with incense ash, and her eyes were red.
"Palace Marshal, it's already three o'clock in the afternoon, whether to execute or not."
At this time, when the sun was at its highest, Luo Yangxing, who was wearing a flying fish suit and embroidering a spring knife across his waist, stepped forward to ask for an order.
"Well, let's cut it." Li Chen responded lightly.
After a while, the wrestlers of Jinyiwei pressed the first batch of people and walked up, and among the first batch of people, there was Mi Fang.
"Li Chen, Li Chen, if you destroy my entire Mi clan, I won't let you go if I am a ghost?" Mi Fang knelt on the execution ground and roared loudly.
"Hmph, wait until you're talking about it." On the high platform, Li Chen snorted disappreciably.
Being a stylish person can kill you, so why be afraid of being a ghost.
"Noise!" Luo Yangxing said coldly and angrily, then pulled out the embroidered spring knife on his waist, and when the knife fell, he saw Mi Fang's head rolling far away.
"Two ......"
Among the people, the little jasper-like girl let out a heart-rending cry and wanted to rush forward. However, before the shouting could be heard, the person behind him covered his mouth and dragged him back into the crowd.
Luo Yangxing slashed Mi Fang with a knife in his hand, and then the people of Jinyi Wei began round after round of slaughter. It didn't take long for hundreds of heads to fall to the ground. The yellow earth under the execution ground has turned bloody.
The strong smell of blood rushed to people's noses, and many of the people in the crowd changed color.
"Three days of exposing the body."
At the end of the execution, Luo Yangxing shouted at his Jinyiwei.
At this time, on both sides of the official road outside Xuzhou, a pillar has been erected every ten meters. The corpses of the Mi clan's children will be hung on this to warn those who have different intentions that this is the fate of collaborating with the enemy.
