Chapter 0233. Imperial Army, Gendarmerie
"This, this!"
More than 30 nobles, more than 50 lords, and wives looked at each other around the newly erected blackboard in the Ke Shouli Mansion, and discussed a lot, but everyone's face was extremely ugly. [Mobile phone, tablet to read novels, please visit m. directly, update faster, more data-saving]
"This, the grain production is handed over to the ninth layer, this, isn't this our life?"
"The land is expropriated for five layers, but my family's land has been sealed since the time of the King of Longevity, why should it be expropriated!"
"It's too much to ask our families to contribute labor to cultivate these official fields!"
In the midst of discussions, the door of the treasury was pushed open, Ke Shouli and Shao Mucheng came in with pale faces, and when they saw the two of them, everyone was surrounded by the main backbone, complaining about injustice.
"Kegong, you are our elder, you say, isn't it too much, depriving us of our land and forcibly conscripting labor, even the tyrant King Mikawa did not treat us nobles like this! Kegong ......"
"And what do you want?" Ke Shouli suddenly turned half of his body, his faint old eyes glared at him suddenly, and the fat Goguryeo nobleman who was full of dissatisfaction was speechless.
"Let's go with this official first, the Tang people have a call." Looking around, seeing that the aristocratic lords and ladies who were excited were all pressed down by their eyes and became quiet, Ke Shouli spit out a sentence tiredly, turned his head and walked outside.
In the confusion, a large number of aristocratic lords also slowly followed, a large group of mostly obese patients walking on the street is not interesting, but pity these aristocratic lords, how have they walked so many roads against the spring cold of April, one by one walked bitterly, and the distance between the two streets was stunned for more than half an hour.
The destination is the former Goguryeo army camp on the right side of Gaimu City, which has been converted into a Tang army barracks, the further you go, the quieter these Goguryeo nobles talk and complain, on both sides of the street, the Tang army with a three-meter-long lance stands on the left and right of the road, one by one full of murderous eyes slanted at a line of Goguryeo nobles, as if they were pigs and sheep to be slaughtered, and the cold eyes are frightening.
"This, this is!" Suddenly, the nobles at the head of the row stopped, their swollen eyes were round, and they raised their heads in horror, which immediately caused the other nobles to look up curiously, but they immediately stopped there, as if they had fallen into the coldest ice storm in Liaodong, and the walls of the Tang army's barracks were all made of sharpened wood, and on the wood, dripping with red liquid, it was a human head.
Seeing this scene, even if these people who personally ordered to be killed, Ke Shouli and Shao Mucheng were still full of chills, these were all nobles in Gaimu City who had discussed and criticized the Tang Dynasty, although Li Jie ordered to raid their homes a few days ago, but the people had not been killed, and they just gave Ke Shouli as a vote.
"This, it's Master Ding, he's my in-laws, how can he ......" Identifying the hideous heads, one of the nobles suddenly screamed, and Ke Shouli was suddenly moved, and quickly covered the nobleman's mouth: "Shh, the old man has finally concealed your relationship, if you let Tang Jun know, it will be ......"
In fact, there is no, Li Jie's purpose is not to kill indiscriminately, but to compete for resources and reduce the possibility of rebellion, Goguryeo is a slave society, those who are not suppressed by the lower households will not survive, the lower households will not rebel, and the stabbing is also these Goguryeo nobles who are full of food and have nothing to do, suppressing those who are dissatisfied with the Tang Dynasty after investigation, he does not have so much time to care about trivial matters among the nobles.
However, looking at the hideous head dripping blood, the Goguryeo nobleman immediately thought of something terrifying, and the spirit of the spirit trembled.
In the heavy atmosphere, a group of nobles trembled and followed Ke Shouli into the gate of the barracks, in the camp, followed the sergeant directly to the commander's tent, in the tent, Li Jie and Li Jiduan sat opposite a desk, and they didn't know what to talk about, seeing everyone coming in, Li Jie turned his head impatiently, and asked arrogantly and hurriedly: "I heard that you are making trouble with the Goguryeo people's self-control, but there is such a thing?" ”
In a word, except for the prepared Ke Shou Li, Shao Mucheng, the rest of the nobles' fat faces and thin faces turned white in an instant, we haven't said this!
But before they could breathe, Li Jie said impatiently: "It's okay to make yourself, there are not a few prefectures under the command of the Tang Dynasty, this king is busy with war, and he doesn't have time to care about you, this king's request is estimated that Ke Weng has already told you, as long as the king's request is achieved, you will be allowed to establish an autonomous government, and now you can elect a chairman of the autonomous government, a vice chairman, who do you choose?" ”
A group of nobles were confused, and subconsciously their eyes would focus on Ke Shouli and Shao Murucheng, and before they could understand, Li Jie had already nodded impatiently and responded: "Okay, since Mr. Ke Weng Shao Mu is in high esteem, the chairman and vice chairman of the provisional military government are the two of you, okay, this king is busy with military affairs, you can go down." ”
As soon as these words came out, the surviving Goguryeo nobles breathed a long sigh of relief, glad that they had saved their heads and kept more than half of their family property, which was much stronger than those unlucky eggs hanging on the wall, and the heavy taxes of the ninth layer did not seem to be unacceptable, at least better than nothing, as for the farming, anyway, it was to work those households, and it didn't matter if they didn't go to the fields themselves.
In the relaxed state of mind of the nobles, Ke Shouli suddenly stepped forward and knelt on the ground, and respectfully thanked him: "Thank you for your promotion, since you have become the chairman of the provisional military government, you have to take the responsibility of this chairman, Your Highness, the taxes of the ninth layer are too heavy!" Please reduce some! ”
"Do you want to die!" Patting the table, Li Jie stood up angrily, and with his words, Scar Liu, Wang Fangyi and others all pulled out their snowy horizontal knives, and forced the tent blades over, and those nobles in Gaimu City were so frightened that their legs were weak, and they fell to the ground one by one, stumbling and unable to speak.
Nine floors are nine floors, old men pledge it, just have a life!
It's a pity that the nobles and lords are scared like this, but the military chairman, the source of the trouble, Ke Shouli, still stiffened his neck and said stubbornly: "Please reduce some Your Highness, the ninth layer is too heavy, and each family has a large population to feed, but with the harvest of the first layer, the lower households will definitely rebel." ”
"Keon, you know, this is war!"
"Your Highness let us control ourselves, don't you want a stable rear?" Ke Shouli still didn't give an inch, and finally let Li Jie pinch his chin and lower his head, and after pondering for a while, he asked with anger: "How many layers do you say?" ”
"Six floors!"
"Impossible, Seventh Layer, if you can't do it again, this king will kill all of you, personally supervise the cultivation of these households, go down!"
With Li Jie's roar, Wang Fangyi put the knife across Ke Shouli's neck, and looked back at the nobles behind him apologetically, Ke Shouli finally kowtowed silently and led the people down.
"Hehe, what a fight for the people!" Holding a small cup of "healing medicine", Li Ji sneered and said: "If you let those pigs know that those pig heads outside were cut off by this for the people's life, how interesting it would be, Your Highness is a good scheming." ”
"Hehe, it's just that people in the rivers and lakes are just famous, hasn't Uncle Li Ji also mixed up in the rivers and lakes?" With the same sneer, Li Jie said indifferently, Li Ji, who listened, nodded again, shook his head and smiled helplessly: "It's old in the end." ”
At this time, a scribe at the door led a few roe deer and rat-eyed guys to walk in quickly, Li Jie immediately froze, restrained his smile, and secretly pushed the wine glass to Li Ji, but unfortunately the scribe still ruthlessly bowed his hand and admonished with a black face: "Lord, be a ...... for the general"
"Lead by example, take the right name, don't you take it as an example, Huaiying, let's get down to business first!" Hurriedly blocked Di Renjie's exhortation, Li Jie hurriedly diverted the topic, glanced at Li Ji, who was also secretly hiding the wine glass, sighed, Di Renjie still respectfully arched his hands: "Obey the master's dispatch." ”
"Lone needs Huaiying, you to be an advisor to the Provisional Government of Goguryeo, to monitor Ke Shouli and Shao Mulucheng's every move, Li Yiliu, and this magnanimous prince, hehe, Lone left a thousand of them as a guard force for you, just call it, just call it the gendarmerie, and maintain the constitutional force of the Tang Dynasty!" Li Yiliu was the commander of the gendarmerie, and Dadu was set up as the captain of Guoyi. ”
"Wait for the order!" Leading the two ecstatic guys, Di Renjie bowed down without sadness or joy, and Li Jie nodded with satisfaction.
Ke Shouli Mansion, that is, the provisional military government, the chairman of the military Ke Shouli also held a meeting for many nobles in front of the map, pointing to the map, Ke Shouli is pretending to say: "Your current task is mainly two, one is to urge all households to cultivate all the spring ploughing in the entire Gaimu City area......
"However, there are still many nobles who are sealed here who have been killed by the Tang army, and their subordinate households ......" A fat pig jumped out immediately, but Ke Shouli showed a lewd smile, and drew lewdly on the map: "King Shuo confused a concept, he wants half of all the nobles' fiefs, and now that the adults are dead, we will take over this part of the land!" ”
Not only is there no shortage of fields, it seems that each family can have more than three percent of the land, even the fat pig nobles who have just died of their in-laws can't care about grief, a pair of round goldfish eyes are full of greed, but after a moment of greed, someone is full of worries.
"What if those family members are disobedient?"
"This is the second thing that Lao Yu wants to say, King Shuo allowed us to select locals from among the prisoners of war to form a law and order army of about 3,000 people to assist the Tang Emperor in managing Gaimu City, so it is called, the Imperial Army!"
"Imperial Army?" A large group of Goguryeo nobles are also bright-eyed, and in these years, it is a good thing to get involved with the emperor.
"Colleagues, the words are not trembling, since we have chosen to surrender, we have not allowed the old thief of Yuan Gai Suwen, the Tang Dynasty has come to the world, if you don't grasp it well, the day of the defeat of the Tang Dynasty in Liaodong is when we were plundered back to the Central Plains, the old man once traveled to the Tang Dynasty, and the Goguryeo people who were plundered back to the mainland by the former Sui Dynasty, but there is no distinction between nobles and nobles, all fame and fortune have disappeared into a small people, gentlemen, for the future of the family, work hard!"
The mood went up and down with Ke Shouli's words, and finally after listening to Ke Shouli's words, all the nobles flashed fear and firmness in their eyes, and nodded together.
I have to say that Li Jie's method is not bad, in less than three days, the area of Gaimu City once again returned to the former calm, whether it is the main city of Gaimu City, or the various fortresses along the Liao River, led by the gendarmerie, the Goguryeo Imperial Cooperative Army patrolled in an orderly manner, and all the Goguryeo households in Gaimu City were also driven down to the fields and began a busy spring ploughing.
As for the Goguryeo defenders who were recruited from the Marudu region and the Buyeo region, unfortunately, most of the diehards were completely disrupted and driven down to the fields like slaves.
Of course, some Imperial Cooperative Army bullied and dominated the market, and no one paid attention to the slightest flaw in the bully city management.
Seeing that the rice fields outside the city were in patches, and the city was in order, and there seemed to be no resistance at all, Li Ji couldn't help but squint his eyes with satisfaction and muttered.
"Now, it's time to march into Liaodong!"
