Section 287 Comprehensive Purge

Broken Tooth grabbed the hair of the middle-aged man who was already paralyzed on the ground and pulled him up. The contrast between the huge figures is so strong that it is as if an unscrupulous child is ravaging a toy.

"When you helped Wu Yuan do things, you didn't expect to have today, right?"

"If it weren't for you to distract the patrols on the periphery of the City Lord's Mansion, Wu Yuan wouldn't have been so easy to get it."

"Many people know that you are his confidant......"

These words are not spoken by broken teeth.

His voice wasn't loud enough.

The pig guard, who had cut off the woman's head, was holding a bloody steel axe, cursed and walked up to the middle-aged man who was covering his ears and convulsing and screaming, picked up the grip of the long-handled battle axe, and hit the bridge of the opponent's nose fiercely, and the man fell on his back in more intense pain, and was kicked in the stomach by the guards...... He felt all his intestines twist together in an instant, and his body involuntarily contracted into capitalized curved strokes, and he wanted to struggle, but he was trampled on his back by broken teeth, and he couldn't move for a while.

"Even if you are a priest and a spokesman for the gods, you must obey the law!"

The loud guard let out a solemn roar that was loud enough for everyone around him to hear, swinging his steel axe at the back of the man's neck and falling straight down. The skull, like a ripe watermelon, left its shoulders and rolled in the dry dust, blocked by the steps of a house not far away. His mouth was wide open, and his eyes, almost out of his sockets, were filled with despair, and horror and regret were forever fixed, gradually fading as time passed, and finally being completely replaced by a thick white greasy color.

Tianhao has always attached importance to propaganda, which is an important element in maintaining and consolidating the foundation of his rule. Most people are afraid of death, but there must be a good reason to kill. Wu Yuan is defined as a "rebel", and all of his followers are killed.

The propaganda about cattle copper is also going on at the same time.

The old woman Osmanthus is in a higher position than before, and she is in charge of thousands of people, and the number is still increasing. The "Propaganda Department" is one of the many institutions of the Rock Lord, Tianhao ordered the urgent transfer of thirty propaganda teams from Rock City, according to the tone set by the young lord, Tai Po Osmanthus and the propagandists spent two hours familiarizing themselves with the situation, editing materials, and all kinds of touching stories about Niu Tong quickly spread in the streets and alleys of Red Hoove.

He is a kind city lord who has helped the civilians of Red Hoof City solve many problems.

Every winter, he would give some food to the poor and poor.

If the poor can't survive, they can always get help as long as they ask the lord of the castle for help.

These propaganda are not just slogans, but as many as 16 specific stories. Among them, the three stories of "sending food on a snowy day", "punishing evil and promoting good", and "sending medicine to the doctor" have spread the widest. The story is not made up, but has a real life source———— Niu Tong's members of the personal guard are loyal to him, and Tianhao picks out a group of heroes to act as the protagonists of the story.

The vivid examples that happened around us are the most convincing, and no one knows what happened in other people's homes behind closed doors. The group of guards is not up or down, just between the poor and the nobles, as long as the person in question stands up and speaks to prove that everything is true. Of course, there will definitely be a few people who doubt this, but Niu Tong is dead, and they will not question the behavior of singing praises to the dead, and the many emotions and thoughts from the surroundings dilute the brain's ability to think. Whether or not these stories really happened, it will not prevent Niu Tong from living forever in the hearts of civilians as a "good city lord".

A good good man died, and he was killed by a vicious bad man. What is even more indignant is that this wicked man killed the entire city lord's family in a frenzy, even the young children.

Such an extremely evil person is actually a clan witch?

The gods are not wrong, he must have deceived the gods in some unseemly way and deceived the trust.

Wu Yuan has been caught, and he will be severely punished.

Those who follow him and do evil together cannot be spared.

Starting from the priests and lower-level witch practitioners, it was found that one by one, as well as the city guards and traders, among whom there were also many witch sources.

It was not difficult to find these people, and Pyeongjoon's intelligence department submitted the relevant list to Cheonho very early. None of these people were planned to be kept, and all of them were arrested with the cooperation of the propaganda team and the working group, and the charges were announced on the spot, and they were killed in public.

He needed a clean and clean city of the Red Hoof. No matter how many of these people there are, three thousand, five thousand, or even more than ten thousand, in Tianhao's opinion, there is no difference, they all deserve to die.

Wu Yuan was right, he cleared the obstacles for himself to become king. He was a smart man, but also a daring madman. Everything is gambling, Wu Yuan has carefully studied the young lord, knows that Tianhao will accept this gamble, and is willing to take the initiative to risk for Niu Weibang. As long as he is willing to accept his offer, Tianhao must kill Niu Weibang as a vote. Conversely, if Tianhao refused to make a move, the four guards present immediately rushed up and killed him on the spot.

Niu Weibang is dead, Niu Tong is dead, Tianhao is also dead, but Wu Yuan still has his own way out. He had set up a shadow in the city early, and there was also a secret passage to the outside in the city lord's mansion in Niu Tong, so that he could escape safely at any time and go to other tribes as a high-level wizard.

If these people are not eliminated for a day, the city of the red hoof will not be clean for a day.

This was a perfect opportunity, and Tianhao took the opportunity to uproot the wizard system in Red Hoof City and kill it from top to bottom. It is undeniable that most of them do have secret dealings with Wu Yuan, colluding with each other, and bowing to orders, although there are few innocents, after all, there are still a few. Tian Hao is not interested in this, he needs a clean bare hoof city, not like in the past, where the people absolutely worship the gods for reasons induced by their subconscious, and the entire ruling space is controlled by witch walkers who are higher in status and power than the city lord.

Kill all the witch walkers here, send another group from Rock City, and quickly fill the power space left by the dead.

Tianhao has always had a clear position for witch practitioners———— who can lead the people to worship gods under the premise of conditions and restrictions. But the ultimate position of the witch practitioner is "scholars" and "civil officials". Their main task is to impart knowledge and raise the cultural level of the whole society from the basic level. According to Tianhao's requirements, the literacy rate of the entire Panshi Territory must reach 90 percent (mastering 500 to 1,000 commonly used words), and the literacy rate must reach 60 percent. Only in this way can we provide a sufficient talent pool.

The Rock Leader's sorcerer training system is shifting towards diluting the presence of gods and spirits, and focusing on the understanding and use of knowledge in all aspects.

"Indiscriminate killing" is one of the worst evaluations of rulers by the people, and Tianhao needs to eliminate this perception at its roots. The propaganda team was very effective, and despite the slaughter and blood in and around the city, no one said anything about it, they thought that the young lord was a good nobleman, and all this was to avenge Niu Tong. Even more rejoicing and heart-wrenching———— Tianhao ordered all the rebels' property to be confiscated, converted into food, and distributed to the civilians in the city in a fair proportion.

A new round of whistleblowing has begun, and all those who have been reported will be targeted by the city guards. This is a tedious and complex undertaking that is expected to last for a long time.

There are not many people in the city of the Red Hoof who have problems, and they are mainly concentrated in the group of witch walkers. However, Tianhao needs to divide and deal with the different classes of the entire Red Hoof City, and needs to get some people out of the city under a reasonable pretext.

The ideal figure would be 20,000 people, which is half of the current population of Red Hoof.

Mines, quarries, fishing grounds, remote new villages, all kinds of different types of construction sites...... People are needed everywhere, and there is a huge labor gap that needs to be filled.

No one wants to leave their home and go to a far, remote place.

Whistleblowing is the best way to test people's hearts. The reward for reporting "one kilogram of flour" will make many people enthusiastic, and whether the content of their report is true or fabricated, the reported person will be brought under the control of the city guards, and then sent elsewhere as a "criminal". These people's property will also be confiscated, and they will start a new life in a strange land as a new, supervised, forced laborer.

To those who know the inside story, there is no fairness in doing so. However, Tianhao was able to harvest a lot of wealth, and at the same time received up to 20,000 strong free laborers. Under the operation of the Pingjun intelligence department, all officials in the city of Red Hooves with more than ten heads were included in the scope of the report. Unable to scrape oil and water from the poor, Tianhao must appoint his own officials if he wants to take full control of Red Hoof City. Of course, all the assigned ones will not die, and they will have a new life after three years of forced labor.

The relevant agencies of the Rock Collar will "check" their cases and confirm that they have been falsely accused. Of course, compensation is indispensable for the same trip. After years of suffering and hardship, these people will completely forget that they were once in the elite, and they will rejoice in the "compensation" of dozens of kilograms of food. More importantly, they will think that they have been freed because of the wisdom and greatness of the young lords, and the name of Tianhao will be sung by these people and their descendants, and they will be part of the staunchest adherents.

As for those who make false accusations, they will be good citizens of the city for the next three years. The land obtained by Tianhao's extermination of the elite in the city will be redistributed, and the commoners, who are mainly these people, will become the new homesteaders. Tianhao would order to encourage the cultivation of potatoes in mountainous areas that are not suitable for the growth of wheat and rice, so that everyone can be fed...... Three years later, the happy days came to an end, and with the full investigation of the reported cases that year, the false accusers would be arrested, and the fields they had worked so hard to cultivate would be confiscated and confiscated.

They don't die for their crimes, but they have to pay the price for their greed and become the fillers of vacant jobs on the mine site. After a few years of honest work, atoning for their sins, they will become residents of the newly built village and start a new life elsewhere.

The whole program is long and complex, and requires a high level of execution ability. Tianhao has enough time and patience, and also has a strong army as a guarantee for execution.

It's too simple to be a bare hoof city.

……

Two days later, Tianhao handed over the city management and various sorted out materials to Changfeng, and he himself took 10,000 troops mobilized again from Rock City, escorted Wu Yuan, took Niu Weibang's coffin, and headed for Thunderhorn City.

It is the clan city of the Thunder Cow tribe, and it is the core of the entire tribe. Only by taking full control of Thunderhorn City can you truly gain the power corresponding to the king of the race.

Niu Weibang's body was embalmed, the internal organs were dug up, and a large amount of oil was smeared all over the body. The weather had become cold, and Tianhao received an order from the Great Commander ———— send the coffin to Black Horn City with Wu Yuan.

The territory of the Niu Clan is mountainous, and from Thunderhorn City to Black Horn City, they follow the same route.

Wu Yuan's feet were cut off, and his two hands were also broken tendons. This is done to prevent him from escaping, but also to prevent him from committing suicide.

The letter from the Great Master was harshly worded and full of hatred: sin must be washed away with blood.

Tianhao could comprehend the meaning of these words. Whether it is a daily stay or a march, Wuyuan is guarded by the young lord's personal guard, but this is not enough.

While setting out from Red Hoof City, Tianhao arrives at the prison.

"I didn't expect you to come to see me?" Wu Yuan was surprised.

He laughed with his hands and feet broken, looking a little crazy: "Hahahaha, you want to kill me, is that so?" ”

Tianhao stared at him calmly for a few seconds, turned his head, and ordered the guards who followed him: "Do it, hurry up." ”

“…… What do you want? Wu Yuan, who had lost the effect of his hands and feet and could only sit on the ground against the wall, was a little panicked, and his terrible thoughts rushed through his mind like a torrent, and he let out a miserable scream: "Wait, you can't ...... Not...... Let me go...... Let go of ......"

The wolf-like guards rushed up, they grabbed Wu Yuan's shoulders and crotch respectively, carried him off the ground, put down a low stool on his back, and used this as a fulcrum to press him on his back to the sky. One of the guards was half-kneeling on the ground, holding Wu Yuan's head with both hands, and his strong hands fixed his skull while clamping Wu Yuan's jaw joint with his fingers. The other guard walked around from the side, smirked and took out the wooden tray he had prepared in advance from his pocket, and thrust it into his forced mouth under Wu Yuan's terrified gaze.

This is a special torture instrument with a smooth surface and an egg-shaped whole. The feeling of forcibly stuffing it into the mouth is very uncomfortable, because the volume is larger than the throat canal, it cannot be swallowed, and at the same time, it is blocked by the teeth, and it cannot be advanced or retreated, so it can only be held in the mouth, and the upper and lower jaws cannot be closed.

Wu Yuan kept letting out a low "hmm" sound, twisting his body desperately, struggling to avoid the terrible fate he was about to face.

He knew this torture instrument, and he also understood what Tianhao wanted to do.

Intense regret accompanied by fear welled up from the depths of the mind at the same time, boundless.

When I was in the City Lord's Mansion, why didn't I just order him to be killed?

Even if I fail and get caught, why don't I take advantage of the opportunity to hit the wall and commit suicide when I am locked up in prison?
