In the afternoon, Gao Shun returned to the county government and immediately went to see Li Qiang to interrogate the traitor. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

In total, there were 5 groups of people to be interrogated, and the members of the three families, 3 people from the blacksmith shop, and 2 aliens were locked up in several rooms in a small courtyard.

Li Qiang interrogated in the courtyard, assisted by 1 Shi junior infantryman.

"General!"

"How's the interrogation going?"

"General, please see." As he spoke, Li Qiang handed Gao Shun a thin piece of wood.

Gao Shun's heart was full of anger, it turned out that so many big families secretly participated in the trade with the barbarians, and they had existed for so long, no wonder the strength of the barbarians was so strong, these big families had a set of surfaces, extremely bright, and they said it all over the place; Behind the scenes, do some unsightly deeds; In particular, the Wang family, the Guo family and other big families in the state, as well as some big families from the mainland, are sanctimonious and selfish, and they should be killed.

"Did the 3 blacksmiths and the 2 barbarians interrogate?"

"There are few of them, I haven't taken care of it, if the general is in a hurry, I will try it again in the evening."

"Okay, then the trial is over tonight, and we have something to do tomorrow."

"Yes, General."

Gao Shun returned to the back hall of the county government and asked Fang Zheng to summon all the collateral and close relatives of the three major families who were not arrested to the county office.

Fang Zheng was very serious, and quickly gathered the people and waited in the front yard of the county government, and the people who came were very complete.

Gao Shun came to the front yard of the county office, stood under the eaves of the lobby, and glanced at everyone. The crowd was a little hairy.

"I think you all know that after a continuous battle a few days ago, the Xianbei Thousand Men were finally annihilated; The barbarians were invited by the three great families to force the county magistrate to resign voluntarily, so that they could continue to trade with the barbarians and obtain amazing wealth; For the sake of their personal family's interests, they even disregarded the safety of the villagers in the county, which was simply mad; You all have more or less relationships with these three families, and I have invited you here just to consult and deal with the opinions of the three major families and listen to your thoughts. ”

One of the old men stepped forward, saluted, and said, "Strategist, this is none of our business, we are not involved. ”

"I know you're not involved, I just wanted to get your thoughts on this."

The old man said: "The military advisor, colluding with foreign races and mutilating the villagers, is not punishable. ”

"Hehe, okay, I see what you mean, what do other people think? Let's talk about it. ”

Another old man said: "Military advisor, colluding with foreign races is the work of the three masters, do you want to release his family?" ”

Gao Shun said with a smile: "I estimate that there are many people who think so, one person commits a crime, and the crime is not as good as the family, but if this is the case, all kinds of criminal activities will emerge in an endless stream, and they will make money without being discovered; Yes, if it is discovered, one person will be guilty, and it will be a big deal if he dies, and he will still leave a huge family, and even the survivors of the family will use the relevant channels to continue to break the law, so I don't agree with this practice; This practice makes the cost of criminals breaking the law too low, and will make more people take risks, which is conniving at others to commit crimes; Think about it, have his family enjoyed the wealth they have earned illegally? Their enjoyment is built on the blood and sweat of thousands of other people, how can they easily let it go? ”

Seeing that everyone didn't speak, Gao Shun continued: "For example, the Zhang family, by colluding with foreign races, made money, not only did their families enjoy it, but they also bought houses and fields in Jiangnan and sent some of their direct descendants to enjoy happiness, if they were not discovered, would they be at ease in Jiangnan?" Their free spending comes from the flesh and blood of thousands of border people in border counties, and how many people's suffering has their selfishness caused? There are hardships and blessings, so I don't want to let go of their families. ”

"The old man can't refute the words of the military advisor."

"Zhang Shichang, what do you think?" Gao Shun saw Zhang Liao standing in the front and bowed his head and was silent.

Zhang Liao raised his head and said: "Military advisor, they colluded with the barbarians and endangered the township, they deserve it, no matter how they deal with it, they can't blame others." ”

"Hehe, that's a good point, everyone is responsible for their own actions, they have caused so much suffering to the people of the border county, no matter how you deal with them, it is not too much. What else do you have to say? ”

Another old man said: "Military Division, this time due to the three scourges, the Xianbei barbarians attacked in advance, and now they are annihilated, they will be angry, I estimate that in the autumn and winter, the Xianbei barbarians will definitely increase the intensity of the southward raids, and this year is not dry in the north, and the days of the grassland are not easy, so we must make defensive preparations in advance." ”

"What's the old man's plan?"

"Military division, it was the reason of the three families before, Xianbei has not attacked the city, and then it will encounter a bloody battle, the lonely city of Mayi is difficult to defend, the people of the county should be moved away, the cavalry and it will be around, or the enemy will be blocked by the barbarians, and the barbarians will not be able to stay here for a long time."

Gao Shun saluted the old gentleman and said, "The old gentleman is reasonable, but please rest assured, we are planning how to deal with it, and when the time comes, we will let the barbarians have no return." ”

Another old man said: "Military advisor, the barbarians are powerful, and the enemy will be at least 10,000 after the autumn, don't be careless, otherwise it will be too late to regret it." ”

"Thank you, old gentleman, for reminding me, I will know; What else do you have to say? ”

A young man took a step forward and said: "Strategist, we also want to join the army to protect our homeland, but we are not selected, do we lower the conscription standard?" ”

"No! The battlefield is the place of life and death, and if the weak are on the field, it will inevitably drag down colleagues and affect the battle situation, which is not enough. ”

Seeing that everyone didn't speak anymore, Gao Shun said: "I understand what you mean, please go back." ”

In the evening, Li Qiang came to hand over and said to Gao Shun: "General, I asked clearly, those two barbarians were sent by Yan Liyou, one of the Xianbei adults in the west, and the people who attacked us were Xianbei and Lian's people, originally Yanmen County and Dai County all belonged to the territory of Xianbei in the west, and Lian inherited his father's position as the new Xianbei Lord, and his Danhan Mountain was on the territory of Xianbei in the west. In this way, his headquarters can develop westward, gradually encroach on the territory of Xianbei in the west, and expand his own strength, but the prestige and ability of his son and Lian are insufficient, and the lords of Xianbei in the west have long seen through the conspiracy of Tanshi Huai, so after the death of Tanshi Huai, Western Xianbei fiercely destroyed the development of the Lian tribe to prevent it from continuing to erode westward. ”

"Hehe, they fought well, what is the result of the three blacksmiths?"

"General, those 3 blacksmiths are intelligence officers hired by 2 Xianbei people, and the intelligence of that day was shot into the county government by them, and they want to borrow our hands to get rid of the three major families, put an end to their trade with Helian, and avoid enhancing the strength of Helian's headquarters."

"It seems that Lord Xianbei in the West wants to rebel?"

"General, you're right, now many tribes in the west no longer accept Helian's dispatch, but they haven't torn their faces yet, and the western adults are worried that Helian's strength will increase greatly because of the trade between Helian and the Han Dynasty, so they want to stop it and borrow our hands to get rid of the three major families in Mayi County."

"How did these three families collude with Helian without explanation?"

Li Qiang said: "General, they started trading as early as when Tanshihuai was not dead, and He Lian only inherited this relationship, and Sanjiaye wanted to use this to keep the county seat of Mayi." ”

"Okay, I got it."

Li Qiang asked again: "General, how to deal with these people?" ”

"Tomorrow morning, all of them will be publicly beheaded, I hate this kind of person the most, and it just so happens that I am also short of synthetic quotas."

"Yes, General."

"When the time comes, the infantry will be recruited."

"Yes, General."

Gao Shun just hopes to let everyone understand that collusion with foreign races will not end well, and at the same time establish Zhao Xiong's image among the county people.
