"See the lord!"

With Beiping Jian Yong as the head of the officials, he led the ministers and the families of Beiping to bow to Liu De.

Liu De's arrival in Beiping had been four days since the Beiping defensive battle, and the reinforcements led by Huang Gai had also arrived in Beiping the day before Liu De's arrival.

Liu De turned over and dismounted, helped Jian Yong and the others up one by one, looking at Jian Yong's somewhat emaciated face, Liu De couldn't help but say: "Beiping is now intact, thanks to the work of the generals!" ”

"The ministers are ashamed and dare not be, thanks to the lord Hongfu..."The ministers are kowtowing to Liu De.

Liu De can only help the ministers up one by one, these people are regarded as their own humerus ministers, and it is all up to everyone to fight to the death to defend Beiping, Liu De of course can not forget the merits of the generals, and personally lifting them up is also to express his respect for them.

The monarch chooses the minister, and the minister chooses the monarch, and that's it.

After talking a few words with Jian Yong and Yan Nan, Liu De looked around at the generals: "I heard that a warrior hung up his seal and left, galloping thousands of miles to call the police for Beiping, which made Beiping defend in advance and avoid the enemy's sneak attack, where is this strong man?" ”

Chen Tang's body trembled with excitement, and he hurriedly came out and said, "The last general Chen Tang will meet the lord!" ”

Liu De looked at the sturdy Chen Tang, and couldn't help but praise: "Great goodness, really a warrior!" ”

This man who knelt down on one knee in front of him shouted out the sentence that made Liu De excited every time he read it: Those who commit crimes against strong men will be punished even if they are far away!

-----------------

Chen Tang's command and martial arts are average, but Chen Tang's intelligence made Liu De's eyes shine, indeed, Chen Tang's great achievements in the Western Regions mainly relied on extraordinary strategy, followed by outstanding command ability.

However, Chen Tang is usually more greedy, so he should pay attention to this, and beat him often to avoid this national general being punished for his crimes.

After Liu De praised Chen Tang, he walked in front of Huang Gai again and said to Huang Gai: "Hard work General Huang!" ”

Huang Gai hurriedly said: "This is the duty of the last general!" Don't dare to take credit! ”

Then Liu De looked behind Huang Gai and asked, "Who are these people?" ”

Without waiting for Huang Gai's introduction, Liu Zhi hurriedly led his cousin Liu Xin and younger brother Liu Xi to bow and said, "The last general Liu Zhi {Liu Xin and Liu Xi} of Chang County will meet the lord!" ”

Huang Gai said to Liu De: "Liu Zhi is the county commander of Chang County, and he led the headquarters to attack the remnants of the Bodhisattva Sect, and he couldn't overcome it for a long time, but it was Liu Zhi who led the army to help, so that the thieves were pacified." ”

It turns out that Liu Zhi is here!

Or the strong of Chang County, Jizhou is worthy of being the most prosperous state capital of the Great Zhou, too many families gather here, rich and strong, but it is not so easy to govern, such as the Beiping Rebellion...

Liu De was also quite polite and virtuous to help Liu Zhi up, and said to Liu Zhi: "I didn't expect that Liu County Commander not only ruled Chang County in an orderly manner, but also led the troops to fight, he is really a civil and military all-rounder!" ”

Liu Zhi hurriedly said: "I don't deserve such praise from the lord, this time I was able to calm the Bodhisattva Rebellion, mainly thanks to General Huang who took the lead and fought to the death!" The minister was just assisting General Huang on the side, and he didn't dare to take credit. ”

"Good!"

Liu De nodded, Liu Zhi deserves to be one of the twenty-eight generals of Yuntai, humble and polite, not arrogant, Liu De has understood, if there is no help from Liu Zhi, Huang Gai wants to defeat the Bodhisattva Sect military camp, I am afraid it will not be solved in a few days.

Stunt: Boost [Friendly Morale] {Level 2 Support Skill}

The ability is not much different from Liu Kun, they are all capable of literature and martial arts, but if they want to be outstanding, they are still a lot worse, but it is more than enough to supervise a county.

The stunt is [On the Guest], which is the same as Jian Yong's stunt, and it should be in history to persuade Liu Xiu to surrender Liu Yang, so there will be this stunt.

Liu De then went to the government accompanied by the ministers, during Liu De's expedition, in fact, Jian Yong also did another thing, that is, to choose an office location for Liu De, Beiping was the capital of Yang Tianlong when he established the Zhao State, so the government of the officials was complete, but Liu De's office was missing.

Yang Tianlong has a palace that can be used as a place for Liu De to deal with government affairs, but Liu De thinks that he is a duke, and living in the palace is obviously a transgression, although this palace was built by the puppet emperor, not the real palace of the Great Zhou Emperor.

Therefore, Jian Yong directly chose a mansion next to the palace as Liu De's office, which was also where Yang Tianlong's clan once lived, but it was vacant because of Yang Tianlong's defeat and escape.

And now Liu De is going to his office - Han Gong Mansion.

When he arrived at the Han Mansion, the first thing Liu De dealt with was how to solve the rebellion in Beiping.

Jian Yong stepped forward and said: "Lord Qi, the enemy general Yang Ping died in the battle array, and all the soldiers under his command were also captured, as well as the thirty-seven family descendants who were connected with the enemy army were all imprisoned in the prison, because the prison space was insufficient, the rest could only be temporarily imprisoned in his mansion, and their clan soldiers were also imprisoned in the barracks..."

"Will the soldiers resist?"

Liu De had also learned about Yan Nan's strategy on the road, and thanks to Yan Nan's strategy, he would unload those ill-intentioned clan soldiers, otherwise they would be a regular zhà dàn at the head of the city, and they would be bào zhà at any time.

Chen Tang came out and said: "Lord Qi, some of the clan soldiers did storm the gate, but most of them were killed by the archers guarding the door. ”

Liu De knew that the big families controlled most of the knowledge, land, population, and power, and only a small part of the alms were given to those border county soldiers and poor people.

That's right, in the eyes of the Maison, this is charity.

No matter how much they attack the family, subject to the current level of productivity, as well as the reason for the level of education of the people, it is inevitable that the scholar class will become the ruling class, and the most important thing is that the decay in the late Zhou Dynasty gave the family a chance to develop.

Therefore, their future goal is to take a multi-pronged approach, on the one hand, the first thing to solve before the opening of the imperial examination is to make paper, without paper, relying only on the current bamboo slips, the so-called imperial examination is not at all. Those who were admitted were still the children of those families.

The heaviness and inconvenience of bamboo slips are always the most important factors in balancing and balancing cultural transmission.

On the other hand, support the new aristocracy more and compete with the wealthy families, but this may cause the new nobles to slowly degenerate and decay into those old wealthy families.

There is also the army, the army must be in the hands of the monarch, Liu De does not want his descendants to fall into the water like the emperors of the Ming Dynasty, and the death is unknown.

Back to the topic, although Liu Dexiang executed all the thirty-seven family members, in this way, it would do more harm than good, and it would plunge the entire Jizhou into turmoil and unrest.

The truth is so fucked up, someone rebelled against Liu De, but Liu De also wanted to appease this group of families and show his broad mind to calm the hearts of the people.

But in addition to killing fewer people, Liu De can be prepared to repair and repair these families in other aspects, at least take away most of the privileges of these families.

So Liu De's angry ministers said: "Rebellion is a heinous crime, not to mention that the enemy is the puppet emperor Yang Tianlong, when the Beiping family followed Yang Tianlong to claim the emperor, I am not to blame in the past, but I didn't expect that this time I was ready to collude with the puppet emperor and want to rebel, how can my father tolerate them!" Someone came, sent an order down, executed all these thirty-seven scholars, showed their heads to the public, and hung their heads at the head of the city, so as to shake the night! ”

"My lord, no!"

Xu Shu, Gao Xi, and Gao Lin all came out and retorted to Liu De.

Liu Zhi and other Haoqiang, who joined the new team in the back, as well as the families who did not rebel originally, were also a little pale and frightened, to put it mildly, these families said that they were wronged, and they were not wronged, after all, they really wanted to rebel, and the soldiers under them all got the news.

But if you want to say that you are not wronged, you are also quite wronged, after all, except for a part, all those clan soldiers have no action, no action, so what is it? Attempted rebellion?

There is no conclusive evidence of the so-called rebellion like letters, and all of them are confessions.

Therefore, the execution of all of them will definitely make people unconvinced, and it will make people fearful, especially in ancient times, the communication was not smooth, and when the news reaches other state capitals, it may not be possible to describe Liu De as what he looks like!

Executioner?

Therefore, it is very unfavorable to Liu De, and it will be even more detrimental to the Principality of Han that he has established with great difficulty.

But Liu De has his intentions in doing this

Gao Xi said to Liu De: "My lord, the execution of the thirty-seven scholars will inevitably cause turmoil in Jizhou, and it will be more realistic, which is not good for the reputation of the lord. ”

Gao Xi didn't mention that the evidence was insufficient, he didn't have to guess that these families definitely had a rebellious heart, but they were resolved by Yan Nan's clever plan and didn't have time to implement it, so Gao Xi could only persuade Liu De from other aspects.

Liu De looked at Gao Lin, this was the first time Gao Lin had talked with Liu De in the political hall since he came out.

Gao Lin said in a deep voice: "The lord establishes the world with benevolence and virtue, and slaughters the family, which will make the world centrifugal, and will hinder the lord's future hegemony. ”

Let the Maison be grateful to Dade? It's kind of! However, Gao Lin dared to say this, it was indeed for Liu De's sake.

Liu De looked at Xu Shu again.

Xu Shu arched his hand and said: "The ministers and the two tall adults have the same opinion, and I hope that the lord can punish them a little, and all of them will be executed. ”

After hearing this, Liu De nodded and said to everyone: "What the three adults said is reasonable, but after all, it is a rebellion, if this father acquits them, wouldn't it make this father's prestige ruined?" The world laughs at it? ”

"Where is Dai Zong?" Liu De shouted.

"The last general!"

Dai Zong is listed.

"Have you found out who are the families who want to break out of the tent?"

"Back to my lord, I've found out! There are six families in total."

"Okay, don't tell me which six families it is, all the heads of these families are showing to the public, there is a shortage of people to build the Great Wall in Beizhou, and the rest of the clansmen are all assigned to the frontier. And the rest of the families can redeem their lives with money, which can be regarded as a lesson for them, after all, life is more important than money, isn't it? ”

Thirty-seven clans, only six people's heads were chopped, and the lives of the rest were all saved, although the northern Xinjiang is dangerous, but after all, there is still a way to live, isn't it?

And money is really nothing to the family, and all the ministers can see that Liu De doesn't really want to execute all the families, but just wants to teach these families a lesson, which also makes many people relax.

But then a sentence let some families know Liu De's ultimate goal.

"From now on, no family with more than 100 people is allowed to have soldiers, but if it is found, it will be severely punished!" Liu De said sharply.

Liu De's ultimate goal is to use this reason to eliminate the family's right to have clan soldiers, after all, the family alone can gather nearly 10,000 soldiers and horses that do not belong to him, which makes no ruler feel at ease.

"We Are Obeyed"

Liu De returned with a great victory, 50,000 Hu people were wiped out in a battle, and the Hu people were captured by King Ott, and the 10,000 soldiers and horses of the puppet emperor Yang Tianlong were also exterminated.

You can only bow down and obey orders.

The family is a bunch of cheap people, who don't repair and repair, and they really don't know what their surname is.

After dealing with the family, there were basically some miscellaneous trivial matters left, and Liu De pushed all these things to Xu Shu and others.

"Where is the convoy from Liaocheng?"

The convoy in Liaocheng refers to the families of all the generals who went to Beiping.

"Lord Qiqi, the outpost rode in a few days to report, and at that time it had already arrived at Jinyang Pass, and it would take at least a month to arrive." Yan Nan replied.

"It's a little slow, but it's better to be slow, it's all family!"

Liu De nodded, and then ordered: "Order Zhao Yun to lead a team of soldiers and horses to respond, Jizhou is not too stable now, thank you for escorting at least worry-free." ”

"The last general commands!"

Yan Nan responded.

At this time, Cheng Yu and Wei Chigong of Beiyuan received news from Changge County.

"Changge is too guarded by Yang Xiang and wants to surrender the city? And to marry a woman to the lord? ”

Wei Chigong looked at the letter in his hand and said loudly, still having some questions: "Mr. Cheng, do you say that this Yang Xiang is sincere in surrendering?" ”

Cheng Yu stroked his goatee and sneered: "Fifty thousand Hu people were wiped out by the lord with a wave of his hand, if he doesn't surrender, when the army arrives, it will be his death." ”

"General Wei Chi, quickly report this matter to the lord, and ask the lord to decide!" Cheng Yu said.

"Great!"

Wei Chigong nodded and went down to order.
