The northwest wind whined, and his cheeks ached.

In the Northland wilderness, a dock fort suddenly appeared.

The spy reported, "General Qiyu, the last time I passed through here, there was a wilderness all around, and there was no dock fort at all. The subordinates didn't know why the dock fort appeared in front of them. ”

Xiao Yi rode on the jujube red horse, standing on a high place, looking into the distance.

Liu Baoshun was mad and released the imperial army based on the soldiers and horses of Liangzhou, and wantonly killed the family and the people. The dock fort that appeared in front of it was not surprising that it was temporarily built by the local family as a fortress to defend the army of the Northern Liang court. Send someone over and see if you can sit down and talk. If you are willing to take refuge in General Ben, General Ben will keep this place safe. ”

"Why should the general care if these people live or die. They did not agree with the general at all, nor with the lady's philosophy of governance. It's better to let them be slaughtered by the army of the Northern Liang Imperial Court, and we can sit back and reap the benefits of the fisherman. ”

"Don't be short-sighted!" Mr. Cheng, a strategist, retorted, "If you have land alone, you don't have enough population, so who will cultivate so much land?"

If the population of the Northland dies, in order to stabilize the Northland, the only means of large-scale population migration can be adopted, and the people's resentment will surely boil.

You let the man's population move to the north, who will? It's not that you can't live.

The little population left in the Northland, even if every family tries hard to have children every year, it will take 20 years for the population to recover, to say the least.

In 20 years, the sea can become a mulberry field.

Liu Baoshun is crazy and wants to kill them all and turn the vast northland into a red land.

But we are righteous teachers, and we certainly cannot stand by and do nothing. Otherwise, how will the hearts of the people of the Northland be willing to submit?

If you are not afraid of anything, you are afraid of 10,000. If a powerful military force suddenly appears in the Northland, Madame's years of planning will be multiplied.

In order to prevent people from taking advantage of the opportunity to fish in troubled waters, we not only send people to contact local families, but also provide protection as much as possible.

General, the old man thought that he would have to send someone to the government to investigate the situation, and it would be best to grasp the local fish scale book.

In this way, we can accurately know the number of local populations and acres of cultivated land. In order to be able to quickly and securely take over the government in the future, it is easy to manage. ”

Xiao Yi nodded again and again, "Mr. is reasonable and thoughtful. The task of going to the government to check the movements, the general handed it over to Mr., and got the fish scale book stored in the government as much as possible. If you can't get the fish scale book, you must also find out what is going on in the city. ”

"The old man will take the order, and he will live up to the general's instructions."

The spies are exhausted, and the civil officials come in handy.

Xiao Yat set up camp on the spot, lit a fire to make food, wrote a plan, and rearranged it.

Similar situations can be seen everywhere in the vast northern land.

The family united with the local people to build a dock fort to defend themselves against the army of the Northern Liang court.

The Northern Liang court fell apart.

The local officials did not listen to the dispatch, and the court officials were killed one after another.

There are many people who want to be officials.

But for now......

The children of the family have avoided it, so that the scholars from humble backgrounds have never had an unprecedented opportunity.

People who couldn't be officials in the past can now become officials as long as they are not from a family.

In the past, he could only be a small person similar to a bookkeeper in the yamen, but now he actually sits high in the ministry and has become one of the ministers of the imperial court.

The promotion of officials does not need to be evaluated, and it is all decided by the emperor's words.

It's a magical world.

It was a normal court, a normal dynasty, but it became so magical and ferocious in a short period of time, and sure enough, it was faster and easier to destroy than to build.

It took a full ten years for Beiliang to initially establish order, which was destroyed by Liu Baoshun himself.

I don't know if he regrets it, whether he has the face to go to his ancestors and ancestors.

……

"It doesn't work to kill one, then kill ten, kill hundred. If the Imperial City Division doesn't work, let the Dali Temple dispatch. I believe that Yang Mu will not let me down. ”

In the palace, Liu Baoshun roared at the commander of the Imperial City Division, reprimanding him for not doing things well and not completing the task on time.

The only thing the Imperial City Division Commander could do was to kneel on the ground and plead guilty and fight for another chance.

"No need! I will hand over the rest to Yang Aiqing. Yang Aiqing was born in a poor family, let him kill the family, raise food and grass, I believe that he will not disappoint my expectations, and he will definitely be able to complete the task as scheduled. That's how it was decided. ”

Liu Baoshun made a decision.

Now that he has turned his face with the Northland family, he simply did things to the end.

If there is not enough food and grass, they will kill one family.

If it is not enough to kill one, kill ten.

The family's grain warehouse is full, but he coldly looks at the devastation of life, why should he be soft-hearted as an emperor.

It's a big deal, kill them cleanly, and then fall back to Liangzhou, be his soil emperor, and then seek hope for a comeback.

He didn't want to think about it, the soldiers and horses in Liangzhou have been sitting on the country for ten years, everyone has land, a house, a wife and children, and they are prosperous and rich.

If you go back to Liangzhou to eat sand and live a hard life, who can stand it?

I'm afraid that the first person to oppose the return to Liangzhou was the old subordinates who followed Liu Zhang to fight the world.

Half of the country is down, the merits and wealth are in hand, and the future generations are inherited, it should be the time to enjoy the glory and wealth, and suddenly want to withdraw to Liangzhou, what are you kidding?

Crazy!

Apparently......

Some old courtiers foresaw this situation and began to enter the palace in a planned way to persuade Emperor Liu Baoshun.

"The family is hateful, but the world is inseparable from the governance of the family. Kill the whole family, this is a stupid move to kill a thousand enemies and lose eight hundred!

Your Majesty still has time to turn back, as long as they are willing to give those families a little sweetness and a little benefit, they will turn their guns and attack Xiao Yi for Your Majesty.

Your Majesty, the big trouble is Xiao Yi and Yan Yunge. The family is at most a bunch of under-beaten dog slaves.

For a group of dog slaves who don't know what to do, it's not worth burying the country! ”

Liu Baoshun scolded angrily: "How do you know that the country will be buried? There can't be a country with clear rivers and rivers. As long as the small people receive relief and care about the court, the Liu family will not collapse. ”

The old courtier was heartbroken, "Your Majesty is confused! It is certainly feasible to provide relief to the victims, but Your Majesty, don't forget that the victims are a group of white-eyed wolves who are not familiar with them, and whoever gives more benefits will follow them.

Competing for financial resources, we are not Yan Yunge's opponents at all.

As long as Yan Yunge spilled a lot of food, the group of victims immediately said to Yan Yunge.

The family is different, this group of people is still a little principled, a little ethical, and has a private army.

Moreover, the family is more disgusted with Yan Yunge's existence than His Majesty, and they can't accept being controlled by a woman.

Your Majesty's methods are not so harsh, and there must be some families who are willing to support Your Majesty and expel the jackals for Your Majesty. ”

Liu Baoshun frowned.

He couldn't help but wonder, was his decision really wrong?

Since indulging in the killing of the imperial army, the results are gratifying, the problem of the untimely supply of food and grass for the army has been completely solved, and there is a surplus, which can be used as relief food.

At the same time, the rewards of the soldiers have also been settled, and the battle has become more and more courageous.

To be precise, it is to kill people, it is simply one enemy ten, and he is not afraid of death.

It's a strong army.

Of course, there are two sides to everything.

The biggest evil consequence is that the family has turned their backs on the imperial court, formed alliances, built dock forts everywhere, and desperately resisted the imperial army.

I would rather die in battle than donate food to the court, and refuse to bow down to my court.

It's like a stone in a pit, smelly and hard.

Because of the family's resistance, the battle losses of the imperial army also increased.

There are casualties every day.

According to the investigation of the Imperial City Division, the imperial army has no way to calmly kill and loot the family, and it must be guarded against someone secretly releasing cold arrows at any time, and it is also necessary to prevent someone from poisoning the water source.

It seems that overnight, the entire northern land has become the enemy of the Northern Liang court.

This is really cheap, Xiao Yat's son of a bitch.

"According to your wishes, I should give up the victims, and I don't need to provide relief."

"Your Majesty has misunderstood. Lao Chen means that the family cannot be abandoned because of disaster relief, and the army should not be allowed to exterminate the family. That Yang Mu, Your Majesty should not be reused. According to the old minister's intentions, he killed Yang Mu and gave an explanation to the world's families. ”

This is to sacrifice Yang Mu's head to the sky, so that Yang Mu will be blackened, so as to wash away the anger in the hearts of the family.

It's vicious enough.

"Let me think about it!"

Killing the family, the benefits are obvious, and the disadvantages can be seen clearly.

How to choose?

He wanted to be quiet, to take a little more time to weigh up.

However, the old courtiers refused to give him time.

Youzi asked directly, "Could it be that Your Majesty really wants to personally smash this country and retreat to Liangzhou." Otherwise, how could His Majesty kill desperately. ”

"Your Majesty's move is clearly reckless and will not give you a way out."

"It's hard to get out of Liangzhou, the country has only been sitting for ten years, and Your Majesty is going to return to Liangzhou, it's ridiculous! So what is the previous sacrifice? Did the brothers all die in vain? ”

"If the first emperor was still here, he would never do this."

"If the first emperor is still alive, he will definitely disagree with His Majesty's actions. If you want to provide disaster relief and help people, you can always think of a way. Killing the family to help the victims, and even killing the victims, is simply self-destructive. ”

"Ridiculous!"

"Your Majesty can't continue to be confused!"

"Shut up! I made a decision for good reason. I have never said that I want to return to Liangzhou, so you should not talk nonsense. ”

"I didn't think about returning to Liangzhou, why did Your Majesty go against the grain and kill the family and kill the victims, what is it if you don't destroy the country?"

"Everyone has been killed, and the scholars have also been killed, is there still anyone to govern this country?"

"Without people, where do the taxes come from? Your Majesty is confused! ”

Boom!

Liu Baoshun picked up the teacup and slammed it on the ground with a loud noise.

Moment......

The hall was as quiet as a chicken, and the quarrels of the old courtiers suddenly stopped.

Everything seems to be back to its most primitive state, and it is a little unreal.

Everyone looked at each other, their faces were not very good-looking, as if they were dissatisfied, and as if they were frightened.

No one spoke, and they all looked at the emperor at the front.

Liu Baoshun sneered, "I am the emperor, and I am true to my word." Whoever doubts me is my enemy, and I will kill him as soon as possible. ”
