Chapter 304: Exterminate thieves, punish corruption, and sacrifice flags
If the wine is not drunk, everyone is drunk, and they taste delicious food, and some guests expressed their doubts: "A lot of corrupt officials have been arrested, why don't you know the canonical punishment!" ”
This question has been held in the hearts of the people of Jianping for a long time, so that it has shaken their trust in Li Yi, so they took this opportunity to express their doubts. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
"Don't get me wrong, fellows. In the face of these moths, the lord gritted his teeth and hated it, and it was also the lord's wish to cut off his head to show the public. But why don't you kill them, you have to keep their heads and sacrifice the flag! The danger of this rumor cannot be underestimated, and when it came to Yu Bing's ears, she immediately gave everyone a reasonable answer.
Use the heads of corrupt officials to sacrifice the military flag of the expedition! When the guests left the Yuhai Restaurant and spread the news to all directions, those complaints and doubts finally subsided.
"Folks, go and see, the corrupt officials have finally been escorted to the guillotine!" The rumors have not completely subsided, and another exciting news has spread through the streets.
It turned out that at the same time as the guests dispersed from the restaurant, a fast horse galloped and entered Jianping City without hindrance, this is a scout, he came from Youzhou, and sent Li Yi the long-awaited news that the Yellow Turban Rebellion broke out.
Jianping has already made the most adequate preparations for this big war, and it can be said that everything is ready only to the east wind.
Since Jia Xu came to Jianping, defeated Goguryeo, and returned triumphantly, he established his position in the army, and established a new army in accordance with Li Yi's orders.
The selection of this team is very strict, they are all about twenty stick guys, and their height must be more than seven feet five inches, which means that Liu Bei will join this army, and he will be the shortest.
The body is strong, the legs are high and the arms are long, and if you shoot under the same conditions, it must be the opponent who falls.
In addition to being extremely physically strict, there is a more specific requirement that you need to play the same accent in a knotted part, why should you do this? There is no explanation, because it is top secret.
After rigorous screening, a team of 10,000 people was formed, and the next step was rigorous training. Of course, this does not need Jia Xu to intervene, but Zhao Yun, Su Li and others are responsible.
Sweat more in peacetime, shed less blood in wartime, and similar banners are posted on the training ground, inspiring the soldiers to give, pay, pay, and pay, and do their best to devote themselves to training.
After several months of training, the team already has combat effectiveness, but it lacks actual combat experience. Li Yi gave an order, gathered 10,000 recruits, and brought out 5,000 veterans. Combining the old and the new, 15,000 elite cavalry, to deal with the irregular Yellow Turban Army, as well as the Han officers and soldiers in the West Mountain at sunset, Li Yi was full of confidence.
Li Yi said righteously: "The Central Plains is full of smoke, and the Yellow Turban thieves are pulling out the city, and the lives are ruined everywhere they go. Although we are in a safe corner, but the Central Plains is our root, for the sake of relatives and friends, in order to save the common people, we have no hesitation, to save the people from fire and water! This time, the Yellow Turban Thieves are our open enemies, but the corrupt officials will never let go, so we have shouldered two people, exterminating the thieves and punishing the corrupt officials, and the responsibility is heavy! ”
"Killing thieves and punishing corruption is a heavy responsibility!" "Killing thieves and punishing corruption is a heavy responsibility!" …… Fifteen thousand people echoed in unison, and the sound shook Yuan Ye.
Li Yi waved his hand, waited for his voice to calm down, and said with a serious face: "Before the army marches out, in order to show our determination to punish evil and promote good, we will use the heads of these corrupt officials to pay tribute to my Jianping's military flag, so that the brothers will remember, punish the wicked, and benefit the people!" ”
"Punish the wicked for the benefit of the people!" "Punish the wicked for the benefit of the people!" "Punish the wicked for the benefit of the people!" …… The three armies shouted in unison, and the people gathered on the side also shouted, and the voices of tens of thousands of soldiers and civilians resounded in the sky.
When everyone's mood calmed down a little, Yu Bing shouted angrily: "Escort the death row prisoners and torture them in public!" ”
Ten corrupt elements were dragged to the guillotine by 20 big men with their arms crossed, and some people dragged them to death like dogs.
In order to allow everyone at the scene to observe the fate of the criminals, Li Yi temporarily set up a high platform of several feet. Hang the criminals to the execution ground with ropes, line up, kneel in front of tens of thousands of soldiers and civilians, give everyone a brief opportunity to apologize, and after a while, ten big men, rotate ten ghost-headed big knives, and hang with the yin wind, ten heads stained with sin, leaving the dirty body.
Under the high platform was the bright red military flag, and the ten cavities of blood spurted down and splashed onto the flag fluttering in the wind, and the flag sacrifice ceremony was completed.
"Okay!" "Corrupt officials have been punished, and they are very happy!" ……
As the heads rolled down, the audience erupted in deafening cheers and thunderous applause, and for a time the military situation was furious and the people were jubilant.
Li Yi nodded with satisfaction, the expected effect was achieved, the villagers could produce with peace of mind, and the soldiers could fight bravely to kill the enemy.
"Mr. Lu Cui has arrived!" Li Yi was about to give the order to be pulled out when a sergeant came up to him.
Lu Cui! Li Yi was overjoyed when he heard this, he is also a celebrity, and he is also a talented student of Cai Yong.
"Hurry up, please!" Li Yi gave an order, but he didn't care about his armor, followed behind the soldiers, and ran out of the crowd.
"Lu Cui came here and hoped that General Li would take him in!" After that, Lu Cui fell to the ground.
"Mr. Jiuwen's name, Li Yi is deeply honored to be able to give me advice!" Li Yi was overjoyed and grabbed Lu Cui.
The two talked a few words, but the army was still waiting on the field, and if it took too long, I was afraid that it would hurt the hearts of all the soldiers. Li Yi smiled slightly and said: "I am one less county commander in Jianping, I don't know if Mr. is willing to take office?" ”
"Thank you for the grace of the lord, Lu Cui will live up to his mission!" When he first arrived, Lu Cui had to be entrusted with a heavy task, and his gratitude was speechless.
Since Liu Ping returned, the six divisions have their own positions, but the position of Jianping County is vacant, but after Song Zhi left, he really couldn't find a suitable candidate. The army is about to depart, and it can only be concurrently served by Zhao Yun. But in this operation to eradicate thieves and rape, Zhao Yun is the mainstay, and he can only stay temporarily.
The arrival of Lu Cui is undoubtedly a timely rain for Li Yi, and after he replaces Zhao Yun, the army will have a strong guarantee.
"Li Qingda, lead Mr. Lu into the city!" Li Yi saw the third brother in the crowd at a glance, and when he saw the sweat on his head, it looked like he was late, and his head was full of sweat.
In fact, Li Tong was too late, he saw ten heads on the ground, and then thought about himself, if he hadn't returned the money earlier and erased the accounts, his head would not have been saved. Seeing the fate of the corrupt official, he was shocked and sweated all over his head.
"Li Tong obeys the order, please rest assured!" Li Tong wiped his sweat while squeezing out the crowd and went straight to Li Yi and Lu Cui.
After a brief introduction, he handed over the road to Li Tong, Li Yi arched his hand, and the military order was issued: "The army will set off immediately!" (To be continued.) )
