Chapter 290: Sacrifice the Butcher's Knife Again
Li Xiu shook his head and said in a deep voice: "The people of the official government are too merciful, pass on my orders, but anyone who gathers to make trouble, regardless of whether they have merit or not, will be killed!" ”
The soldiers on the horse and Sun Ming were stunned when they heard this, but they didn't expect Li Xiu to give such an order. After hesitating for a while, the two of them hugged their fists and said, "Subordinates obey!" ”
"Wow"
When the people gathered at the door heard his order, there was an uproar.
"Troubled ministers and thieves, chaotic ministers and thieves, disaster to the country and the people!"
"Li Xiu, your father's death is inseparable from your rebellion, giving birth to a son like you, he really deserves to die!"
"Li thief, I'll fight with you!"
“”
These people really didn't expect that Li Xiu would dare to give an order to kill these famous and meritorious scholars, and they suddenly scolded even more fiercely.
However, many people can't help but be scared at the moment.
You know, this Li Xiu is a real butcher, don't they all kill those officials of the imperial court? What's more, a person like himself who can't even pass the Jinshi exam?
Some people have already secretly fled the scene when they saw the opportunity.
At this time, the soldiers in the general's mansion had all been dispatched, surrounded the people who had not had time to run away from the scene, waved the sharp blades in their hands, and launched a bloody and cruel killing.
Li Xiu turned around and no longer had pity for these people.
For more than 200 years, the Ming Dynasty has been giving preferential treatment to scholars and suppressing the status of martial artists, resulting in a significant decline in military capabilities, and barbarians can repeatedly invade the territory of the Ming Dynasty.
In the past few days, Li Xiu has completely figured it out. The dynasty had come to an end, and the problem would not be solved without a complete suppression of the gentry and the defeat of these landlords who had annexed land in large numbers.
There is another one, if these people who gather to rebel against themselves do not take strong means of suppression, I am afraid that they will not even be able to defend this Kaifeng City.
In that case, let's kill!
Only a small number of people need to be sacrificed to benefit more people, so what about being a sinner through the ages?
Yes, compared with the millions of ordinary people and the millions of military households, the number of the gentry class is indeed only a minority.
Today, these people took the initiative to send them to the door to find death, so it's no wonder that they are themselves.
The soldiers of the whole army need land, and the displaced people outside the city also need land, so how many people can at least be supported by collecting most of the land in the hands of the gentry and redistributing it?
It was a one-sided slaughter, and the opponents were all helpless people. Among these people, only a few people can resist a few times, and the rest of them are basically things that can be solved with a knife.
After about a stick of incense, the outside of the general's mansion was completely quiet, and the soldiers were busy cleaning up this special "battlefield".
Li Xiu sat alone on the stone steps at the door, silently looking at the blood all over the ground. The scene has been simply dealt with by the soldiers, and it is not as terrifying and scary as just now.
But the maids in the mansion looked at him with fear in their eyes, and even the subordinate soldiers didn't dare to approach the general.
Once today's incident spreads, I'm afraid that many people will scold themselves, right?
Well, even if they don't dare to insult themselves to their faces, they must be indispensable behind their backs.
But so what?
From today on, when people all over the world hear Li Xiu's name, they will tremble in the depths of their souls, and this is enough!
A few cars stopped at the door, and Yang Yuxuan and others arrived.
Killed so many people in front of them, I'm afraid even they don't dare to get close to him now, right?
Li Xiu raised his head, barely pulled out a smile at everyone, and then lowered his head again, like a child who had done something wrong, and didn't dare to face everyone's eyes again.
Yang Yuxuan and the others were indeed a little scared.
When they were at the gate of the city, they had already seen a real massacre, and now when they saw the situation at the gate of the general's mansion, they thought that the death of these people was because of an order from their husband, and they were indeed a little difficult to accept for a while.
But looking at his lonely appearance, and thinking of his father-in-law's death, Yang Yuxuan was relieved: "He should only give such an order when he was blinded by hatred, right?" ”
"Xianggong"
Yang Yuxuan handed the child into the maid's hand, stepped forward and stretched out a hand in front of him, and said with a light smile: "Why are you sitting here alone?" Shall we go in the house? ”
Li Xiu raised his head, looked at her with a somewhat complicated look, more puzzled, and asked, "You're not afraid of me?" I'm now a famous butcher in Kaifeng Prefecture! ”
Yang Yuxuan shook his head and said, "Marry a chicken and a dog and a dog, marry a flat shoulder and go." ”
Marry a chicken with a chicken and a dog with a dog, marry a root and hold it?
Li Xiu felt that this was Yang Yuxuan's rare humor, and it was also the most beautiful love story in the world.
"Yes, marry a chicken and marry a dog with a dog, marry a flat shoulder and go!"
Before he had time to be happy, Wang Bing and the others also gathered around, smiling and repeating Yang Yuxuan's words.
Seeing this, Li Dong knelt directly on one knee, hugged his fists and said: "Li Dong swears to follow the general!" ”
"Follow the General to the Death"
The soldiers behind him knelt down one after another, shouting in unison.
What a smart woman!
Li Xiu realized that Yang Yuxuan's actions had deeper intentions, and it was really difficult for her to come up with such a way to force her subordinates to show loyalty.
Li Xiu stood up, took her tightly into his arms, and whispered in her ear, "Thank you!" ”
Yang Yuxuan smiled: "His brain is still spinning so fast, and he hasn't let hatred blind him, he is still the same person he was, and he is the best husband in the world!" ”
Of the more than 10,000 soldiers of the Shenji Battalion, Li Xiu was recruited from the area west of Mountain 1. There was a perennial war in that place, the people had no food and clothing, and the soldiers were well recruited, and as long as they could eat enough, it was a very happy thing for them.
Li Xiu personally distributed the salary, no one can deduct it from it, the treatment of all the soldiers of the Shenji Battalion can be the best in the Ming Dynasty today, each soldier can eat a full meal, a meal for three days at the same time, and a tael of silver per month, how can they not be satisfied?
Because of this, most of them willingly followed Li Xiu to rebel.
These soldiers in the Shenji Battalion either came to join the army as brothers, or their relatives died in the war, so they had nothing to worry about. Originally, the soldiers recruited in Beijing were not in the Gyeonggi area, and it was difficult for the imperial court to catch the families of these soldiers, so naturally it was impossible to threaten Li Xiu.
The 5,000 villagers who were recruited in Julu were even brought over by their families to reinforce Lu Xiangsheng. While Li Xiu accepted the men, he even asked a few women to join the logistics of the Shenji Battalion.
Li Xiu was strict in governing the army, and no one dared to bully them.
However, this massacre is more serious than an open rebellion, which will leave a shadow in the hearts of the soldiers, who regard themselves as people who are easy to kill, and then there may be a situation of detachment, fear and disloyalty.
Li Xiu took advantage of this great opportunity to show his intentions in public, and these soldiers who knelt on the ground realized that the general was killing for the sake of their subordinates and being able to get some fields.
They were moved, after being a soldier for so many years, it was the first time they had met such a good boss, where else could they find such a thing?
After Ma Mingda and Zhao Xiong got the news, they just rushed over, ready to wake up Li Xiu and ask him to stop doing it quickly and stop adding to his sins. But when they heard Li Xiu's words from afar, they began to think seriously, although Li Xiu's methods were a little cruel, they were not a good way.
The power of the gentry class was so great that sometimes even the government could not do anything about them. Li Xiu's actions today should be enough to deter these people.
It is true to improve the status of the warriors, but if he really follows his method, will it cause the entire gentry class to revolt?
It's okay to have a place, but if the gentry class is weakened on a large scale in the future, once it is resisted by all the gentry in the world, how can we clean up this situation?
Li Xiu knew the intention of Ma Mingda and Zhao Xiong, so he invited the two of them to the house.
Some things, sooner or later, are going to be opened.
Although they are ministers who have misled the country, the two officials in front of them are actually very capable. Li Xiu knew this very well in his heart, and naturally hoped that his approach could be recognized by them.
Of course, if they really resisted such a practice in their hearts, Li Xiu would not force them to stay.
The Tao is different, not conspiring with each other! (To be continued.) )
