Qin Hua began to officially take over Liangzhou after handing over to Geng.

There are a total of eight counties in Liangzhou, of which Wuwei, Jincheng, and Hanyang are all within Qin Hua's sphere of influence.

The five counties of Anding, Jiuquan, Beidi, Zhangye, and Dunhuang, as well as a subject state of Zhangye, also needed to be cleaned up by Qin Hua.

The officials at the end of the Han Dynasty were too corrupt, and Qin Hua was bound to launch a purge after taking over Liangzhou.

People in other states and counties are not clear, but the officials in Liangzhou are very Qin Hua's style, and after learning that Qin Hua became the pastor of Liangzhou, nearly twenty percent of the officials immediately took the initiative to resign.

At first, Qin Hua thought that they were worried about being removed from their posts before they did so, but soon he realized that something was wrong.

Immediately after the resignation of these two officials, someone came to negotiate with Qin Hua, hoping that he would relax his management of these counties.

From this person's words, Qin Hua knew that the resignation of the official was premeditated, because in the following time, he continued to receive such resignation letters.

Moreover, in these counties, the recruitment order issued by Qin Hua actually had no effect, and under the investigation of the Qin family's intelligence agency, Qin Hua learned that the "celebrities" in these counties had received instructions from these families, and they were all warned that they could not accept Qin Hua's recruitment.

Therefore, after the dismissal of these families, chaos has begun to appear in the county, and Qin Hua needs to deal with these things as soon as possible.

Qin Hua's two strategists have different views on this, Xun You believes that these families should be communicated, because in the end, it is necessary to select talent management counties from these people, if the relationship is too stiff, there will be a shortage of talents in the future, which is very unfavorable to the governance of Liangzhou.

However, Jia Xu has a different point of view, he thinks that the easiest way to deal with these families is to catch the leaders and make an example of them, so as to quickly suppress the hostility of these families.

After a few days, Qin Hua still couldn't make a decision, Liangzhou has a small population, if all these big and small families are wiped out, it will obviously be very unfavorable to the development of Liangzhou, but if you directly use force, you are afraid that it will affect the future development.

The Han Dynasty was very focused on fame, or rather, because of the inconvenience of communication, they could only judge a person by the information spread from other people's mouths.

If Qin Hua really suppressed the family, then it would be difficult for him to gain the support of the family in the future.

Although Qin Hua looked down on the family and thought that they were close to decay in the four hundred years of the Han Dynasty, as Xun You said, Liangzhou still needed these people to govern, and it was impossible for Qin Hua to find enough talents to govern these counties in a short period of time.

Originally, he was ready to agree to Xun You's method and was ready to compromise temporarily, but Qin Hua received a report that under the fan of some families, some homeless people, Di people or Huns actually rebelled against him.

ps: Although the Huns were defeated by the Han Dynasty, there are still Huns in the territory of the Han Dynasty, and they are the Huns who have attached themselves to the Han Dynasty.

Qin Hua is not worried that these families will use the dismissal of officials to blackmail themselves, even if these counties are unmanaged in the short term, there will be no big chaos, but once there is a rebellion, Qin Hua's bottom line has already been touched.

"Forceful pressure? I haven't been afraid of anyone yet. ”

Knowing that there were rebel forces, Qin Hua immediately decided to recruit these rebel forces himself.

Since these forces were small forces of tens to hundreds of people, Qin Hua only brought five thousand Iron Eagle Cavalry, with Beigong Che as his deputy.

At Qin Hua's request, the Ministry of Industry developed horseshoes and stirrups, with these two things, the strength of the cavalry was at least doubled, whether it was a long-distance attack or the strength of the knight, it was greatly improved.

With the horseshoe, it is no longer easy to use the sand and gravel ground, which greatly reduces the wear and tear of the horse's hooves.

Needless to say, the stirrup allows the knight to have a foothold when he can step on the stirrup, and when fighting, he can exert not only the strength of the upper body, but also the strength of the lower body.

Qin Hua personally commanded 5,000 personal soldiers and began to eliminate these rebel forces one by one.

In order to show his strength, Qin Hua beheaded all the defeated enemies and used their heads to pile up one Jingguan after another.

On the first day, they were still in contact with the rebels, but when they went back the next day, they found that there was nothing outside the Jingguan built with human heads on the ground, which made them start to feel scared.

As all the rebel forces were wiped out one by one, Qin Hua's murderous reputation began to spread among the Liangzhou family.

When they learned that the rebel forces they supported had all met the same fate, some timid families had already begun to write letters to Qin Hua asking for peace.

Every time he heard the sound of a large number of horses' hooves passing outside the city, they were all terrified, fearing that when the cavalry would rush into the city.

Fortunately, Qin Hua did not want to kill all these families, he was ready to use Jia Xu's method to kill chickens and monkeys first, and then use Xun You's method to negotiate with them, so that he would not fall into the situation where no one was available, and he could greatly limit the strength of these families.

"Anding into the family, Jiuquan Li family, Beidi Wang family, Zhangye Xu family, Dunhuang Xu family, these five families are the largest families in the five counties, and they are also organizing those small families."

The Nighthawk Force reported to Qin Huayu that this was an intelligence force composed of Qin family retainers as the core, and even Jia Xu and the others knew very little about this force.

Qin Hua had already spread the Nighthawk to the three counties of Jincheng, Hanyang and Wuwei before, and the mastery of the other five counties was not enough, but when Qin Hua was far away in the Qiang people, they had already established a foothold in these five counties.

This time, Qin Hua asked them to collect evidence of the crimes of those families, the more powerful and old the family, and they would inevitably do many things that did not conform to the law.

In the past, the influence of those families was even stronger than that of the county guard, and no one dared to touch them, but it was different for Qin Hua.

This time, he is going to use formal means to bring down a few of the largest families, so that the rest of the small families can only be obedient, and Qin Hua will not end up with a reputation for cruelty.

After exterminating all known rebels, Qin Hua returned to Wuwei in a hurry, but the Iron Eagle Cavalry did not rest, and all the Iron Eagle Cavalry divided into five teams and set off towards the five counties to capture those families who were "favored" by Qin Hua.

At the same time, the announcement was pasted to publicize the crimes committed by those families. Because he was worried that he was too illiterate, Qin Hua's bulletin board was not only guarded by soldiers, but also two literate people who read the announcement content non-stop.

As soon as Qin Hua's move came out, all the resignation letters that originally came from flying like snowflakes were gone, replaced by letters of apology and letters of oath of allegiance.

However, Qin Hua did not want to directly restore these people's official positions, and his rectification of Liangzhou continued.
