Cao Shuo was sitting in the main hall of the Xiangping Mansion, discussing with everyone how to stabilize Liaodong next, when Deng Zhan ran in from the door.

He said to Cao Shuo: "Gongzi Qiyu, General Chen killed Gongsun Yuan and brought his head back. ”

"Ask him to come in." Cao Shuo commanded.

Deng Zhan stepped back and led Chen Zhi into the main hall after a moment.

Chen Zhi walked in with a human head and a meteor in stride.

As soon as he stopped in the hall, he said to Cao Shuo: "Childe, I'm back!" ”

"Gongsun Yuan killed?" Cao Shuo asked.

Lifting the head and shining to Cao Shuo, Chen Zhi said: "There are no capable people under this guy, and he still dares to go against Gongzi, and he is also killing himself." ”

"Gongsun Du occupied Liaodong back then, and they originally planned to inherit it from generation to generation, but they were buried in Gongsun Yuan's generation." Cao Shuo said: "As a descendant of the Gongsun family, how can he be willing? ”

"There are many casualties among the people in Xiangping City." Guo Jia said to Cao Shuo: "The son still has to be appeased." ”

"Liaodong is now part of Youzhou." Cao Shuo said: "Xiangping's grain was also burned by us, and we can't let the people go hungry." An order was immediately issued to transfer all the grain and grass into the city, and then distribute some from all over the country, so that the soldiers and civilians must not starve. ”

After giving this order, Cao Shuo said to Zhong Changtong again: "Mr. Zhong will go to Jixian County with me in a few days to take over Youzhou, and when you stay in Liaodong, please take care of Mr. here." ”

"Don't worry, Childe." Zhong Changtong replied: "If the little Liaodong can't take care of it, how dare I take over Youzhou?" ”

"Mr. can make Liaodong recover as soon as possible, which is a great contribution to me." Cao Shuo stood up and said to everyone: "I still have some things to discuss with Fengxiao, you all have your own duties, but don't slack off." ”

Everyone got up and retreated, only Guo Jia stayed in the front hall.

"Come out for a walk with me." Walking to Guo Jia's side, Cao Shuo greeted him.

Guo Jia responded and followed him out of the front hall.

Leaving the official mansion with Guo Jia, escorted by Deng Zhan and Zhu Ao and a team of guards, Cao Shuo walked onto the streets of Xiangping.

The order to give the people a holiday has been given.

The people in Xiangping City broke through the door of the scholars, and the once invincible scholars were slaughtered.

After all, there is still some bottom line.

At least the lieutenant general knew that some living people should be left to bury the bodies.

The rebels are different, not only are their methods more cruel, but they also leave no room for slaughter of the scholars.

The characters who once didn't even dare to look up are now cattle slaughtered by them.

In Xiangping City, there were people running back and forth everywhere, and passing by the door of the Shi clan's house, Cao Shuo and the others could even faintly hear bursts of crying coming from inside.

"Childe, isn't it too much?" Guo Jia said to Cao Shuo: "Let the people come nonsense, I'm afraid that I won't be able to hold it down when the time comes." ”

"Let them make a fuss first." Cao Shuo said: "The Liaodong Shi clan are all people from Gongsun Du, and these people have no loyalty to our Cao family. I won't kill them, I will use the people to destroy them, and in the future, Liaodong will be more pure. ”

"Childe is really right, it's just that the people are in chaos, I'm afraid it will be more troublesome in the end." Guo Jia said: "It's better to press them." ”

"General Deng." Cao Shuo instructed Deng Zhan: "Immediately pass the order, the people can attack the mansion of the scholars, but they are not allowed to smash it maliciously." They were not allowed to trespass into all the dwellings and shops of the people. ”

Deng Zhan stepped back in response.

Cao Shuo asked Guo Jia, "This should be fine." ”

"Childe is picking out that he wants to kill all the Liaodong scholars." Guo Jia shook his head and smiled: "In this way, I am afraid that the surviving scholars will hate Gongzi from now on." ”

"Ordinary people will be hated by a few people when they live in the world, and people like me who conquer the world don't know how many people hate them to the bone." Cao Shuo smiled indifferently: "Because I am afraid of being hated, I dare not do anything, how can I lead my troops into battle, and how can I stabilize the world?" ”

Guo Jia didn't say anything more.

There is nothing wrong with what Cao Shuo said.

Competing for dominance in the world will inevitably kill countless people.

The people who hate him have long been all over the place now, if he is worried about being hated, it is really better to quit the hegemony from now on and be a son of the Cao family in peace.

"In troubled times, many rules are different from those in peaceful and prosperous times." Cao Shuo said to Guo Jia: "I just used the rules that are suitable for the troubled times. The scholars who are loyal to Liaodong should have realized a long time ago, and once Liaodong falls into my hands, they who once called for wind and rain should be purged. After all, they don't really do much use to me. ”

Deng Zhan conveyed the order to the Cao army, and soon Cao soldiers occupied the streets.

Some civilians were still unsatisfied after attacking the scholars, and when they wanted to storm the shops in the city, they were blocked by Cao's army.

Commoners have always lived at the bottom of the ladder, they have always been bullied by the nobles, and they are not valued by the wealthy merchants who have no status.

Finally found an opportunity to vent one day, how could they not vent all their grievances.

The Cao army stood in their way, not allowing them to crash into the shops, and groups of people gathered together to argue with the Cao army's soldiers.

was ordered to stop the people, but the soldiers of the Cao army ignored them at all, but formed a human wall to prevent them from having a chance to break through.

The people pushed each other, and some guys who were afraid that the world would not be chaotic even wanted to rush in front of the human wall formed by Cao Jun.

"Childe is here!" It was when the two sides were at loggerheads that a shout quieted the scene.

The soldiers of Cao Jun did not squint, and straightened their chests one by one.

And the chaotic people set their eyes on Cao Shuo.

Walking towards the group of people who were pushing each other, Cao Shuo asked, "What's going on?" ”

"Childe is here, just in time to give us a review." The man who took the lead in making trouble said to Cao Shuo: "Previously, the prince promised to give the people in the city a three-day holiday, saying that he could break into the rich man's house at will......"

"When did I say I could break into the homes of rich people at will?" Cao Shuo smiled slightly and said to the man, "I mean you can break into the homes of people who have bullied you in the past." ”

Pointing to the closed shop, Cao Shuo asked, "These merchants have also bullied you?" ”

Merchants do business, although they will have disputes with a few people, but they will not bully the good, after all, they run a business, not only to earn the money of the dignitaries, but also to earn the money in the hands of the lowest people.

Especially the merchants who run shops, they are already small in their livelihood, and they don't have the ability to bully others.

Crashing into the shop, the reason is really untenable.

The people looked at each other, not knowing how to answer.
