Chapter 487: The blood of the enemy is the sweetest
"Lord Xiangguo! Urgent news from the south! Lin Xiaobai of Yuzhang County led his troops to kill General Wang Mastiff and has captured Nanchang City! At the court meeting, a minister held a wat board, but his eyes crossed the Son of Heaven in front of him and said directly to Dong Zhuo. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
The little emperor's face turned blue, and he had already become an air-like existence among these ministers.
Although the little emperor Liu Xie is young, he is actually very smart, but now Dong Zhuo is monstrous, no matter how smart he is as a child, what can he do?
"What?! Wang Mastiff died? Dong Zhuo stood up suddenly, the long saber at his waist dragging on the ground.
"Yes, Lord Sangkoku. Wang Taishou had died in the hands of Lin Xiaobai. The minister bowed his head and said, he knew that Wang Mastiff was a general who fought with Dong Zhuo in his early years, and the relationship between the two was extraordinary, so he was a little scared. This Dong madman kills people for the sake of killing, who knows if this guy will innocently harm them in a fit of anger?
"Damn! Damn it!! Dong Zhuo's eyes were round with anger, and he suddenly pulled out the long sword in his hand, and he actually slashed it on the main hall!
The little emperor on Dong Zhuo's side was so frightened by Dong Zhuo in this rage that he couldn't possess his body, what does this Dong butcher want to do?! In this Han Weiyang Palace, for hundreds of years, no one has dared to use troops on this palace! He Dong Zhuo has set a precedent for the Han Dynasty today.
"Lord Xiangguo's anger!"
"Sangkoku-sama ......"
Dong Zhuo swung his sword and cut down the table in front of him, and after a burst of anger, he finally regained a little sense, and the ministers below were persuading him again, and finally let him sit down again.
"Lin Xiaobai, this thief is really hateful, I haven't settled with him when he grabbed my tiger prison first, but I didn't expect to provoke me again today! If I don't crush this son to ashes, I am unwilling! Dong Zhuo's vicious desire to kill made the ministers in the court frightened, and they couldn't help but think of a few days ago, when Dong Zhuo's army had just entered the city, the situation was unstable, and several ministers wanted to take the opportunity to assassinate Dong Zhuo and overthrow Dong Zhuo's tyranny.
It's a pity that these people were very imprudent in their work, and they leaked the news, and they were all arrested by Lu Bu and others the next day.
At that time, when Dong Zhuo learned in the court that these people wanted to assassinate him, he was also like today, angry and tyrannical.
Then came the terrible torture. These people were successively punished with tongue cutting, ear cutting, and finger cutting, and finally when these people were dying, Dong Zhuo actually asked people to take them outside the court to kill, and the hot blood just fell, and it was mixed in wine by Dong Zhuo and sent to the hands of the ministers in the court.
"The blood of the enemy is the most mellow and sweet, which is also the highest etiquette for my Xiliang to treat friends. Of course, those who do not drink still have pity for the enemy in their hearts, or there are also henchmen of the enemy...... Ladies and gentlemen, please. Dong Zhuo said coldly.
In the three days after that day, all the ministers of the court and the central government took sick leave and stayed at home, and each of them, after drinking this bowl of wine mixed with human blood, vomited for three days and three nights.
And when Dong Zhuo heard about this, he laughed.
"This group of hypocrites, drink it and drink it. Can you spit it out as if you haven't drunk it? Since you don't dare not drink it, then enjoy it. ”
Since then, the ministers in the court have become more resentful towards Dong Zhuo, but their fear of Dong Zhuo has also increased a lot.
"Recruit the killer immediately, and I will reward Lin Xiaobai's head with 100 gold!"
Dong Zhuo's strength is quite strong now, but it is limited to the north, and there are a large number of his hostile forces in the south and the Central Plains, so he only has one way to deal with Lin Ran now by recruiting assassins.
"That Xiangguo, about Lin Xiaobai's self-leading Yuzhang Taishou......" The minister asked cautiously.
Dong Zhuo said coldly: "Without the canonization of the imperial court, you dare to crown yourself as a taishou, isn't this still a rebellious act?" immediately issued an edict, defined Lin Xiaobai as a rebel, and ordered the princes everywhere to requisit. ”
The princes in the south naturally would not listen to Dong Zhuo's orders, but if they could block Lin Xiaobai, Dong Zhuo would naturally be willing to do so.
"Your Majesty, what do you think?" Dong Zhuo turned around and asked the little emperor with a smile.
"Aiqing......" Before the little emperor could speak, Dong Zhuo scolded the attendant eunuch beside him: "Blind? Why don't you hurry up and get the pen and ink holy decree and jade seal for Your Majesty. ”
"Hey." The little emperor sighed lightly and said nothing more. He knew that now he had no mouth, only a head, a head that could only nod.
......
The first thing Lin Ran did after successfully capturing Nanchang City was to stabilize the order of the entire city first.
Nanchang City has just changed hands, all kinds of people with evil intentions have come out, some people take advantage of the chaos in the city to set fire and loot, all kinds of crimes in the city have soared, and there are even many big families - for the Xiaobai Alliance, many of these family lords are also disgruntled, deliberately sabotage.
For these people, Lin Ran had a method to directly suppress them by force.
A large number of troops of the Little White Alliance continued to march in from outside the city, and the whole city was under martial law, and anyone who dared to destroy the city buildings, smash and injure others would be dealt with immediately on the spot.
As for those family gate valves, Lin Ran is temporarily unwilling to break out into direct conflict with them, in Yuzhang County, these family gate valves have considerable influence, and the most important thing is that in the entire Eastern Han Dynasty, the family gate valves are prevalent, and the family as a class, the strength is very strong.
Lin Ran doesn't have the ability to challenge this class for the time being.
"Deploy heavy troops outside the mansions of those gate lords, if they dare to make any changes, don't blame us." Lin Ran said lightly.
After this arrangement, the law and order in Nanchang City was very good, and the situation was completely controlled.
Lin Ran only had time to manage some other things at this time.
First of all, finance, the combat effectiveness of a force, in the final analysis, the most basic thing is still in financial resources. If you don't have money, what do you use to gather troops? What do you take to buy weapons and equipment? What do you use to recruit talent from all walks of life?
Lin Ran led people to the treasury first and found the account books of Nanchang City's finances. Originally, Lin Ran thought that with the income of a trade city like Nanchang City, there must be a large amount of silver taels and funds in the treasury.
But when he walked into the warehouse, Lin Ran was disappointed.
The treasury of Nanchang City was completely empty at this time, only a few boxes, opened and counted, and there were only tens of thousands of taels of silver inside.
