Chapter 5015: Killing Chickens and Monkeys

Half a month later, Datong Town, Shanxi Governor's Palace.

Early in the morning, Liu Juntao came to the official office of the front courtyard early, and at this time, Liu Zi'an, Minister of Intelligence, Huang Wu, Minister of Inspection, and Lan Siqi, Minister of the Central Department, had been waiting here for a while.

"Governor, the situation has been clarified, and the evidence is conclusive!"

As early as before, Liu Juntao sent people to cooperate with the Ministry of Intelligence to secretly visit all the generals in Shanxi, and check the generals of the Ming army who secretly colluded with the Tatar Department and the former Warat Department.

At this time, Liu Zi'an came to report the results of the matter.

"Say! What bastards are they! ”

"Qi Yu Governor Xian, all the generals who are related to the Tartars are basically concentrated in Datong Mansion and Taiyuan Mansion, the list is as follows:"

Liu Zi'an began to read according to the list summarized by the Ministry of Intelligence:

"Datong Zhenwei Wei Yuanwei commanded Tongzhi Zhang Tongwei, since the early years of orthodoxy, he secretly colluded with the Warat Department to resell ironware, cloth, grain and other materials, a huge amount."

"Tianchengwei of Datong Town commanded Tongzhi Qi Tianshun, and since the first year of Jingtai, he has sold the relevant information of the Datong Town garrison to the Warat Department in exchange for a large amount of money, and also resold military rations for profit."

"Wang Wenzhan, the garrison of Shanyin County, Datong Prefecture, has been transported out in the name of reporting losses since the beginning of the third year of orthodoxy, and has been resold to the Warat Department more than ten times."

"Li Wenyuan, the garrison of Shuozhou County, Datong Prefecture, has been bullying the local people since the second year of orthodoxy, secretly taking away many people and selling them to the Warat Ministry, and then reporting to the government as missing."

"...... of Wang Hao, a guerrilla general in Hequ County, Taiyuan Prefecture"

"Taiyuan Prefecture Daizhou Garrison Chen Mingzong ......"

At first, Liu Juntao's face was still cold, but later, Liu Juntao's anger became stronger and stronger, and finally slammed the table and shouted: "These traitors should all be punished by the Nine Clans!" ”

Liu Zi'an also had a bad face, and said: "Duxian, there are a total of thirty-one generals in Datong and Taiyuan, and these are the evidence of these people's crimes!" ”

As he spoke, Liu Zi'an presented a thick stack of papers.

Liu Juntao was not in the mood to look through them one by one, and said directly to Huang Wu, the head of the inspection department next to him: "The Jianfeng Division will immediately dispatch and arrest all these captured generals according to this list!" ”

Huang Wu immediately clenched his fists and took his life.

"Remember! To act secretly, not only to take down these bastards, but also to arrest the families of these traitors! The Governor will soon mobilize troops and horses to raid the house! ”

Lan Siqi, Huang Wu, and Liu Zi'an were all shocked when they heard this, it seems that Liu Juntao is moved to kill, not only to deal with these traitors, but also to connect the families of these traitors!

However, the three of them did not bear it at all, after all, what these traitors did can already be said to be the anger of people and gods, it is impossible for the families of these traitors not to know what they have done, since they have enjoyed the goods brought by the traitor, they will now have to pay the due price!

Then, Liu Juntao said to Lan Siqi: "The Central Department immediately issued an order to summon all the guerrilla generals and above from all over Shanxi to Datong Town, and the deadline is five days!" This governor, I want to feast on the generals of Shanxi in Datong Town! ”

"Obey!"

After speaking, Lan Siqi glanced at Huang Wu and Liu Zi'an, and the three of them understood in their hearts that Liu Juntao was preparing to be punished in front of the military generals of Shanxi.

This also means that Liu Juntao is not ready to hand over these captured generals to the imperial court, but is ready to dispose of them himself.

Five days later, the town of Datong.

Liu Juntao contracted the newly opened Zuizhongxian Restaurant in Datong Town, and mobilized 300 Tiance soldiers to guard everywhere.

On this morning, generals from all over Shanxi came one after another, and under the arrangement of the central department, they entered the restaurant and sat down.

However, the guards and family members brought by these generals from all over the country were all stopped by the soldiers of the Tiance Army outside the restaurant, and then, without exception, they were all settled in two inns and taverns not far from the Zuizhong Xian Restaurant for dinner.

Near noon, the generals from all over Shanxi had arrived one after another, of course, none of the generals secretly captured by the Jianfeng Division of the Inspection Department had arrived, and they had all been imprisoned in the Governor's Mansion at this time.

"The Governor has arrived!"

As soon as the song was sung, the entire restaurant on the upper and lower floors and hundreds of tables of generals all got up, and the audience was silent, and everyone looked at the gate.

I saw Liu Juntao walking in with his head held high in heavy armor, and the guerrilla general Bai Yuxing and the guerrilla general Tao Jixin behind him were also fully clothed, and walked in with one left and one right.

Seeing this, everyone was stunned.

Today, everyone came to the banquet, so everyone came in official uniforms, and no one came to the banquet wearing armor.

Seeing Liu Juntao's outfit, everyone's hearts were in a cold war, and they didn't know what kind of charter Liu Juntao, the new governor of Shanxi, was.

"Huh!"

Liu Juntao smiled and said, "Everyone, sit down!" ”

Saying that, Liu Juntao had already walked up to the third floor and sat down at the main table, Bai Yuxing and Tao Jixin were still standing next to him.

"The last general will see the Governor!"

For a time, hundreds of generals saluted Liu Juntao together, and the three-story restaurant was full of people and very imposing.

"Sit! Sit down, everybody! ”

Then, Liu Juntao nodded to Bai Yuxing, and Bai Yuxing sang loudly: "Open the table!" ”

Immediately afterwards, the guys in the restaurant brought up all kinds of delicacies, and one jar after another of Liu's two pots were sent, and the whole restaurant began to be lively again.

After all, the people at the table this time are all martial artists, and there is no cumbersome etiquette of civil officials, so at this time, before the wine and food are ready, everyone has already begun to push the glass and change the lamp, and the generals near the main table have poured wine and stepped forward to toast Liu Juntao.

Liu Juntao also received the respect of some generals, and most of the rest were blocked by Bai Yuxing and Tao Jixin.

After a while, Liu Juntao came to the railing on the third floor with a wine glass, which overlooked everyone on the second and first floors, and could also let all the generals on the three floors see him.

"Ladies and gentlemen! Listen to Bento! ”

Everyone put down their chopsticks and wine glasses, and looked at Liu Juntao respectfully.

Then, Liu Juntao talked about the situation of the soldiers and horses in Shanxi Province that he had sorted out during this period of time, and then said: "Shanxi is the barrier to protect Gyeonggi, how can such soldiers and horses defend the country!" ”

Everyone was shocked in their hearts, could it be that today's banquet is a Hongmen banquet?

Some generals who are not motivated on weekdays are even more in a cold sweat, for fear that after this meal is finished, they will be taken down by the young governor in front of them.

Liu Juntao's cold gaze swept over everyone, and said: "Therefore, starting from tomorrow, this governor will conduct a big drill for the soldiers and horses of Shanxi Province, and all the soldiers and horses and generals will be trained by the soldiers of the Tiance Army. Unqualified sergeants, all kicked out of the barracks and went home to farm! ”

As soon as the words fell, everyone's faces changed, even Xue Tong, the chief military officer of Datong Town.

Moreover, there are many people who have a trace of anger on their faces, but no one dares to speak out against it.

Seeing this, Liu Juntao snorted coldly, and with a wave of his hand, Bai Yuxing stepped forward to the railing and began to read out the list of prisoners secretly found by the Intelligence Department in public.

After reading it out, Liu Juntao said loudly: "This governor has sent people to arrest all these traitors, and has sent generals to take over the soldiers and horses of these traitors. ”

When everyone heard that they were all in chaos, the generals on these lists had some dealings with everyone, and when they heard that these people were captured, and the whole family was arrested, many people panicked.

At this time, Xue Tong, the chief military officer of Datong Town, asked: "Duxian, I don't know how Duxian is going to deal with these captives?" ”

Liu Juntao said loudly: "These traitorous thieves are extremely heinous and unforgivable! The governor decided that three days later, outside the north gate of Datong Town, all these traitors would be beheaded in public, and all the families of these traitors would be sent to various mines to serve as indefinite slaves! ”

"What!"

"Aren't you going through the Imperial Court Law Division?"

Liu Juntao's words were like a boulder falling into the water, which suddenly stirred up a thousand waves in the crowd.

Liu Juntao didn't pay attention to everyone's discussions, but said coldly: "What these traitors do is their own business, and it has nothing to do with you, which the governor knows." ”

When the generals heard this, they nodded their heads and said yes, where else would anyone dare to propose something like reporting to the imperial court?

At that time, these people have been killed, and Liu Juntao has ironclad evidence of these people in his hand, and he will report to the court afterwards, Emperor Tianshun will at most issue an order to reprimand Liu Juntao, and he will not really do anything to Liu Juntao, which can be understood as long as you use your brain a little.

"Now that the black sheep of our Shanxi garrison departments have been eliminated, the rest depends on you, what is the future under the command of this governor in the future, it also depends on how much ability and merit you have!"

Xue Tong, the chief military officer of Datong Town, immediately said loudly: "The last general swears to follow the Governor and defend the Ming Dynasty!" ”

Seeing this, the other generals were not to be left behind, and they clasped their fists and said loudly: "The last general swears to follow the Governor and defend the Ming Dynasty!" ”

Three days later, Liu Juntao led the generals from all over Shanxi to climb the north tower of Datong Town, at this time the city was already crowded with people, 1,000 Tiance Army soldiers and 3,000 Datong Town soldiers maintained the situation, and tens of thousands of ordinary people flocked to watch the grand occasion of openly dealing with the traitors.

On this day, Liu Juntao beheaded all 31 generals and announced in public that the traitor's family would be used as mine slaves, and for a time the whole Datong Town outside the north gate of the city was thunderous.
