Chapter 284: Luoyang is pacified
Not to mention the matter of Guizhou, but said that the rebel forces in Luoyang City have basically been pacified, and Luoyang City has been filled with black terror of raiding homes and arresting people for several days. Many officials of all sizes have been arrested, and their relatives have not escaped this catastrophe, according to the ancient criminal law, rebellion is a major crime of the nine clans.
The list and family names of the rebels arrested this time, as well as their official positions, have been delivered from Luoyang to Liu Xia's hands. The dense words on it made Liu Xia gasp when he saw it. This is more numerous than any previous rebellion, and it covers a wide range of areas.
From the very beginning of the arrest of the population, in addition to being recruited out of other cities, so the investigation office and the people of the dragon group once again went to other prefectures, prefectures and counties to carry out large-scale arrests. So there were more and more people, more and more, like a snowball.
"Smack!"
Liu Xia angrily slammed the list on the table and shouted angrily: "Since you are disloyal, don't blame this king for being unkind." This time, all the people involved were arrested, along with the nine clans, and after this king finished solving the matter here, he personally beheaded them! β
Liu Xia was furious, and the generals and ministers on the left and right did not dare to speak or move. The good mood of the big victory just before was thrown away.
"This king thinks that he is not thin on the generals and ministers under his command, and there are still so many rebels and traitors, hmph, is this the spirit of my Chinese nation? Betraying the country and the clan, is it really my Chinese tradition? β
There has never been a shortage of traitors in China, as if there was no shortage of officials. There will be many in each dynasty. In the late Qing Dynasty, there were so many traitors, they were weak in the face of the enemy, and they were more fierce than hungry wolves in the face of their relatives and nations.
It's like the city of the Republic. In general, they are the wonders of the republic, and they are absolutely first-class at bullying their own people, and if they are pushed to the battlefield, they can be scared to pee their pants. What Liu Xia hates the most is this kind of person, a traitor and a lackey, bullying the weak and fearing the hard, these are the scum of the Chinese nation.
Although Li Wen is a new member, he knows everything about Luoyang. Seeing that no one dared to step forward to inquire about the situation, he stepped forward alone and said, "Lord Wang, I don't know that these people areβ"
Liu Xia sighed and said, "These include civil officials and military generals. Merchant craftsman. There are a wide range of people involved, and it has also been found that several Qinglou are related to the Qing court and are suspected to be Tartar intelligence officers. The ancients said that the Qinglou Tea Shop is the best place to inquire about the news, and it is true. I'm afraid that a large number of intelligence sources and intelligence transfers are sent from this green building, and it seems that this king needs to carefully investigate this green building. β
Li Wendao: "Lord Wang, there are a lot of people involved this time, and now before all of them have been found, four or five thousand people have been raided, have all of these people been killed?" If we had not taken that man into the army, we would have had fewer soldiers. Liu Xia calmed the anger in his heart, shook his head, and said: "No, if the criminals are used as the army, it will turn this army into a degenerate, this king's army is a high-quality soldier with strict discipline, law-abiding, and close to the people's morality, and it must not be defiled by the criminal." Killing is not finished, killing the main culprit and his descendants of the offender, the rest of the side branch servants are used as labor, and they are handed over to the logistics department Wang En at the disposal, I am afraid that there will be a lot of dangerous labor projects in the future, and a large number of people need to be used, and they are the best labor force. β
"That woman~"
Liu Xia frowned, he came from the 21st century, and naturally had a moral bottom line in his heart, to be honest, Liu Xia didn't want to force Liang to become a prostitute. In ancient times, women who committed crimes were generally pretended to be official prostitutes, which could be regarded as forcing good people into prostitution, and the punishment was severe enough. Liu Xia didn't want to do this, but it was unlikely that he would let these women go, even if they were not guilty.
"Handed them all over to the Logistics Department, didn't this king open a lot of factories? Glass factories, cloth factories, and many places where military uniforms were made needed women, and these women were arranged to be placed in them for labor education. If there is no serious sin, if the performance is good, it can be released after three years of work, and if it does not want to leave, it will be given according to the salary in the market, and it will be treated according to the recruited employees. In the case of a person who has committed a serious crime, the length of work is determined according to the sentence of the law. β
Those women didn't know that their fate was completely separated from the church as official prostitutes because of the unbearable in Liu Xia's heart.
"By the way, is there any information from the south?" Liu Xia asked.
At this time, Shou Biao next to him stepped forward and bowed to Liu Xia respectfully: "Lord Wang, a letter has been sent from the south a few days ago, but the prince has not read it. With that, the Shoubiao handed over the letter that was pressed under the many letters to Liu Xia. Liu Xia immediately opened it, and after a while, he looked at it.
I only heard him say: "The war in the south has ended temporarily, the military division and General Ma defeated Wu Sangui's army and occupied Xinyang Prefecture, and now the entire Henan Chengxuan political envoy has been recovered." And Zhang Xianzhong has already made a move, Guizhou and Yunnan in the rear of Wu Sangui, at this moment, Wu Sangui is afraid that he will not be able to take care of the Kuiwolf Legion. He ordered to tell Ma Peng, the commander of the Kuiwolf Legion, and Chen Liu, the military advisor, that they must defeat Wu Sangui to the south of the Yangtze River and control the land north of the Yangtze River. β
Luoyang
Meng Yu and the members of the investigation office hurried to a dilapidated house on the outskirts of Luoyang, which was a small village. There were more than a dozen families in the village, and when these people saw Meng Yu and others coming, they closed the doors and hid one after another. In the past few days, the things in Luoyang City have already spread all around Luoyang, and even Henan Province.
The people from the Investigation Department are definitely not here for tourism, but definitely to arrest people. The people of the Investigation Division were easily recognizable, so the people were afraid to hide when they saw them coming.
Meng Yu shook his head helplessly, aggrieved. He did not harm these people. Why are both the people and the officials afraid of him?
"Come on, lock up this room. No one is allowed to enter or leave, and if anyone dares to resist, they will be killed! β
"Yes!"
Soon, dozens of personnel from the investigation department behind Meng Yu firmly surrounded the house, and Meng Yu walked to the door of the courtyard and knocked heavily on the door.
"Bang bang bang! Bang bang bang! Bang bang bang! β
"Who!" At this time, an old voice came from the closed courtyard, and soon the courtyard door opened a twenty-centimeter crack, and I saw that it was an old lady of seventy or eighty years old. When she saw that it was an officer, she was so frightened that she didn't dare to move.
Meng Yu glanced at her and said in a deep voice: "This official is the commander of the investigation department, and he has come to arrest the prisoner Bai Lan. Meng Yu said that, the old man's face turned pale with fright, and he hurriedly wanted to close the door, but where can an old man's strength compare to Meng Yu? I saw Meng Yu push hard, and the old man was suddenly pushed and fell to the ground, falling heavily. Immediately, Meng Yu ordered two people to arrest the old man.
"Arrested! Arrested! The old woman shouted into the house with all her might, not knowing to whom.
"Shut up!" Meng Yu scolded the old woman fiercely, but the old woman was not afraid at all, and still shouted, but Meng Yu could only ask people to find something to block the old man's mouth.
At that moment the door of the house opened, and out of it came an old man with a cane, who walked hunched over and with silver hair. The corners of his mouth trembled, and he walked forward, and after getting close to Meng Yu, he suddenly knelt down and begged: "This official, please, please let my Lanlan go." He's also in trouble, please, pleaseβ"
As the commander of the Investigation Department and the head of the Supervision Department, Meng Yu's heart has been trained very hard, so naturally he will not be soft-hearted after being begged for a few words. Meng Yu said: "This official will handle the case in accordance with the law, and will not wronged a good person, nor will he let go of a bad person, the old man does not have to be like this." Besides, this Bailan is guilty of collaborating with the enemy, treason, and betraying the nation. An's sin should be exterminated by the Nine Clans! Meng Yu's voice fell, and the entire courtyard suddenly fell silent, and the old man and the old woman stopped talking or struggling. Because they were too scared to know what to say.
