Chapter 578: What is a Parent Official?
Fang Xie looked at the two people who were surrounded by the circle with interest, one hand supporting his chin, his eyes squinted slightly, and all the generals behind him also stood there smiling and watching the play, but the cold sweat on Boyang County's body broke out layer after layer. He didn't know if the seemingly still amiable and calm General Fang was really angry, or if he just felt that those troublemakers were hateful and wanted to teach him a lesson.
Yu Mao has led the people of the county to fight against thieves in the past year, and his heart has hardened a lot, but after all, he is a literati who has read books for decades, although he knows that these troublemakers are hateful, but he has no intention of killing them. At this time, seeing that Fang Xie actually surrounded the troublemaker and Dou Tiande, maybe the next moment he would be on the spot again.
"Big ...... The Great General......"
Yu Mao took a few steps forward, and said with a smile: "There are such people under the rule of lowly duties, because the law enforcement of lowly duties is not strict and inappropriate, but it is just ...... It's just that the thief leader Dou Tiande has good martial arts, and Song Er is naturally not his opponent. In case of...... If he was killed by Dou Tiande, wouldn't he be wronged. ”
"Wronged?"
Fang Xie glanced sideways at Yu Mao, and smiled: "His name is Song Er?" I'm just perfecting his integrity, this person has the heart to avenge the people of the entire Boyang County, his ambition is commendable, his courage can be shown, his righteousness can be promoted, and his festival is naturally unyielding, I can't let him in the second half of his life is full of regrets about when he has bad luck to kill thieves, I think he is a man who is willing to stand up for the people, he should be very grateful to me. ”
At this time, Song Er in the circle was already so frightened that his legs softened, and he crawled to squeeze out, but was kicked back by the soldiers of the Black Flag Army. He knelt down and begged the soldiers to get out of the way, but no one paid any attention to him.
Seeing Dou Tiande coming over with a knife, Song Er was so frightened that he kowtowed to Fang uncontrollably: "General, the villain knows that he is wrong...... The villain no longer dares to contradict the general, and begs the general to spare his life...... General, the villain will never dare to talk nonsense in the future. The villain is just an unintentional mistake, not intentional. Ask the general to give me a chance to live, and the villain will never dare to forget the kindness of the general! ”
Fang Xie waved his hand and said: "Then how can you do it, you instigate the people to rush into the military formation, and let the people pick up stones and smash these thieves, from this point I can see that you are the most hot-blooded man, how can you be cowardly?" In the past, when you encouraged others, it shouldn't be like this, right? ”
"The villain really knows that the general is wrong, and begs the general to spare his life."
Dou Tiande, who walked in front of him with a knife, suddenly thrust the knife into Song Er's side, and poked into the ground on Song Er's side. He bent down and scolded at Song Er, who was curled up in a ball with fright, with a mouthful of bloody phlegm: "Although Lao Tzu has done many evil things, he can't look down on scum like you. is obviously as timid as a rat and shrinks behind others to make trouble, but he pretends to be righteous and awe-inspiring. You are such a coward, Lao Tzu killed you and dirty my hands, phew! ”
He turned around and walked not far in front of Fang Xie and said, "I originally wanted to live, but after thinking about it all night, I realized that the general wanted to kill me Liwei, and it would be difficult to save me if I was an immortal." In that case, it's better to come late than early, come on! ”
Fang Xie nodded and said: "Yesterday, when you knelt on the ground and begged, I looked down on you, but now I have a bit of courage, then I will fulfill you first, after killing you, I will take your body and bury it, and I will not let people whip and abuse." ”
"Thanks!"
Dou Tiande hugged his fists with the other party, then sat down cross-legged on the ground and stretched his neck forward and said, "Come on"
Fang Xie pointed at Song Er: "Escort this person over just opposite Dou Tiande, since he wants to take revenge, I give him a chance but he doesn't dare to take a knife, then I will give him another chance, let him see Dou Tiande die with his own eyes in the nearest place." ”
The two Xiao Riding Schools went up, and one of them grabbed an arm and carried Song Er over like a dead dog, and he was about a meter away from Dou Tiande and held it down.
Dou Tiande bent over and stretched his neck and smiled at Song Erhehe: "After a while, the master's head will fall to the ground, and the blood in his neck will not be bad, it will be sprayed on your face, haha!" ”
A cavalry colonel stepped forward, sprayed a sip of wine on the horizontal knife, poured the remaining wine in the bowl into his mouth, and then raised the horizontal knife high and slashed down, the sharp knife cut in from the back and cut out from the front, and the huge human head immediately fell down. Immediately after, blood from the broken neck of the thick mouth of the bowl spurted out like a waterfall. The slightly hot blood sprayed Song Er's head and face, and the splash was so frightened that he fainted, and a foul smell came from his pants.
Fang Xie pointed to a few other troublemakers and ordered: "Just escort them to see it, and all those thieves will be cut down, so that they can see from the beginning to the end." People who watch other people's life and death as a drama are the most disgusting, and the murderers are punished according to the law of the imperial court, but these guys who drink human blood are happy. Don't you like to watch others bleed, let you see enough today! ”
Dozens of wolf-like horsemen pounced on them, carrying them by the necks and leading them to the thieves. With the order of the general, more than a thousand heads were cut off one by one, and those who made trouble were carried, watching them cut one after another, no one lasted long before they fainted in fright, and the people of the Xiao Riding School woke up with cold water and asked them to continue to look down. Streams of thick blood sprayed on them, and these people were so frightened that they lost their souls.
Fang Xie glanced at Yu Mao, who was also so frightened that his face changed color, and his legs were trembling, and he snorted coldly: "Do you think I have done something too much?" ”
"Xiaguan...... Xia Guan did not ......"
Yu Mao didn't finish speaking, and couldn't help but spit it out.
Fang Xie said coldly: "These Diao people who took the lead in instigating trouble, if I don't rectify it like this, they will do it in the future." Those civilians were instigated to break through the barriers of my soldiers, and when they threw stones, they deliberately hit the soldiers, only to stir up trouble. When the time comes, if I order all the people who have wounded their soldiers to be cut down, who do you think is sorry and who is hateful? ”
Yu Mao had a layer of cold sweat on his forehead, and he didn't dare to speak or even look at Fang Jie's eyes.
……
……
There was a good killing outside Boyang County, and the heads of more than 1,000 thieves and soldiers fell to the ground, Fang Xie deliberately did it, not only did he establish his authority, but he was afraid that the people of Boyang County would be afraid of it when they mentioned today's events in the future. The purpose of killing the thieves is to let the people see the position of the Black Flag Army, and to teach those splashes is to let the people know the majesty of the Black Flag Army.
It wasn't until after noon that more than 1,000 heads were cut off, and one of the troublemakers was scared to death, and the others were afraid that they wouldn't even have the courage to walk at night in the future.
Fang Xie glanced at Yu Mao, and asked in a calm tone, "How many people are there in Boyang County?" ”
Yu Mao was stunned for a moment, wiped the sweat on his forehead and leaned over to reply: "General Hui, since Dou Tiande gathered a crowd to rebel, many people in this county have died, and many people have moved away with their families for fear of robbery, and the people who have no relatives from other counties to take refuge in have all poured into the county seat, totaling no less than 20,000 people. ”
Fang Xie hummed and said, "Is there enough food to eat?" ”
Yu Mao hesitated for a moment and replied truthfully: "Xia Guan is guilty...... Seeing that the people in the city had no food and clothing, Xia Guan couldn't bear to sit back and watch the people starve to death, so he opened an official warehouse to distribute grain privately, but the official warehouse in the county did not have much grain, barely enough to last for three months. Now that the summer has passed, there is no harvest in the fields, and the officials don't know how to deal with it. ”
Fang explained: "I won't ask you about opening the official warehouse privately, you have made great contributions to the people of Boyang by forming the people to defend the county bravely, even if there are some minor mistakes, they can be ignored." Later, I will send someone to bring the seeds, and distribute them according to the population, and if I plant them now, I will be able to harvest some coarse grains after the big autumn, and I can barely survive the winter. Then the wheat was planted, and the seeds were distributed by our Black Flag Army, and by next summer the grain was fell, and the shortage of food was alleviated. ”
"You tell the people of Boyang County, I am the general of the imperial court, since I lead the troops to be stationed in Huangyang Road, it is natural to benefit one party, and after the summer grain is beaten down next year, the people only need to return the borrowed seeds, and no longer charge an extra cent of tax money and grain. This is true not only of Boyan County, but also of nearby counties. Since you are the father and mother of Boyan, you must be more in charge, and if the people who have fled come back, you must register and make a book, and distribute food according to the households. If there are people from other counties who come to Boyang to open up wasteland and farm, it cannot be stopped, and it will also be registered. ”
"Xiaguan ......"
Yu Mao pounced and knelt down: "The lower officials and the people of Boyang thank General for saving their lives!" ”
"Get Up"
Fang Xie said lightly: "You and I eat the imperial court, but to put it mildly, the people are the parents of food and clothing." I led the troops only to protect one side, so naturally I would not watch the people suffer and ignore it. I won't leave Huangyang Road for a short time until all the thieves are cleared. I don't know the local officials well, you can write to the officials of the surrounding counties, if you want to have my Black Flag Army protection, go to the Suzaku Mountain camp to register, and I will treat you equally. ”
"Remember!"
Yu Mao kowtowed a few times before standing up, and after hesitating for a moment, he asked, "General, do you want to use troops against Xinyang?" ”
Fang explained: "When I first arrived here, after the army rested for some time, I naturally would not tolerate the rebel thieves in Xinyang City to continue to cause chaos, which is also what I want to warn you magistrates, I know that you magistrates have dealings with Xinyang Chengtian Xin, and will also pay taxes to Xinyang." But from now on, if you let me know that you local officials have any more collusion with Luo Yi's department, don't blame my army for being ruthless. ”
Yu Mao shuddered for a moment: "Xiaguan remembers...... The general clearly observed, and the lower officials and other officials had dealings with Tian Xin, all for the sake of the people, and they didn't want the people to suffer from the disaster of the war. ”
"Because I know, I'm just admonishing."
Fang explained: "In the future, if there are any thieves who disturb the people, you can directly send people to the Suzaku Mountain camp for help." If someone in Xinyang City comes, he must also send someone to report it. I don't care about your past because I know that you are forced to do so. But now that my Black Flag Army has arrived, there is no need for any more ghosts and ghosts to run rampant here! ”
"Xiaguan...... Keep it in mind! ”
Yu Mao hung his head.
Fang Xie said slowly: "In the past few years, I know that your local officials have also lived a hard life, and they have done a lot of things for the people, and they can't sleep at night and don't know the taste, but this is what officials have to do. I ask you, they all say that the magistrate is the parent official, do you know what the parent official means? ”
Yu Mao rubbed the sweat in his palms and replied cautiously: "Officials should treat the people as their own, take care of the people like parents love their children, and they can't be biased or slack." As the saying goes, love the people like a son, and this is the truth. ”
"You're wrong."
Fang Xie said lightly: "I have already said just now, no matter how big an official you are, the people are your food and clothing. The so-called parent officials are not parents who are officials, but officials who treat the people as if they were filial to their parents. It is not that you should treat the people as your own, but that you should be supported as filial piety to your parents. Love the people like children...... In the same way, this son does not refer to the people, but to yourself. Love the people like a son honoring his parents, can you remember this sentence? ”
Yu Maoxin said this, why did the general all turn it around, but there is still some truth......
At this time, a Xiao cavalry school came over and whispered in Fang Jie's ear: "General Chen sent someone to send news, and some clues have been found out over there." ”
