Knowing the defeat of the official army he brought, Zhang Ran's whole person was paralyzed in the chair, the troops of the Yan'an Guard Station were all wiped out, and he no longer relied on it, even if he could escape today, but such a big defeat, a military general is not enough to take the blame, and those guys who are busy with party disputes in the court will not let him go.

For a while, Zhang Yin was full of despair about his future.

For the sake of his family, Zhang Yin still decided to die here, at least to leave a reputation for serving the country with death, and his family may be treated and rewarded by the imperial court.

Zhang Yin decided to start with Hu Zhixian, a former subordinate: "You shameless villain, you actually voted for a rogue guy, it's really corrupt." ”

"Master Zhang, as I said, I didn't defect to the Liukou." Hu Zhixian said patiently.

"You still want to quibble, are you blind as an official?"

"The lord is the true son of heaven, how can he be a rogue!" Hu Zhixian patted his ass seriously.

"Speaking of which, I really can't be considered a rogue." Wang Zhi also said to himself.

The definition of a rogue is a robber who wanders around, and Wang Zhi is so focused on developing a base that he doesn't wander around at all.

"Alright, the deterrence is almost over, Lilia, rewrite his memory!" Wang Zhi instructed Lilia.

In fact, he can let Lilia rewrite the memories of the people in the house as soon as he comes, but there is a great hidden danger in doing so, because Lilia can only rewrite other people's memories, but not change her personality, it doesn't mean that if you rewrite other people's memories, others will be completely loyal to you, just don't resist being loyal to you, dealing with this kind of official, if you don't deter in advance, it is impossible to want him to be loyal to you just by rewriting the memory, because this kind of person has no loyalty in his heart.

As soon as his memory changed, coupled with the previous deterrence, Zhang Yuan immediately relented, stepped down from the main seat, and respectfully saluted Wang Zhi: "Lord." ”

"There's something I want to ask you......"

Just as Wang Zhi was about to ask Zhang Yin a question in his heart. Lilia beside her pulled his clothes, and Wang Zhi immediately turned his head to look at her: "Is there something wrong?" ”

"Brother, can you kill that person." Lilia pointed to Aimu on the side.

Wang Zhi was stunned for a moment by Lilia's sudden request, and after reacting, he ordered the soldiers behind him, "Drag it out." Ling Chi. ”

can make Lilia, who is accustomed to seeing the darkness of people's hearts, have the idea of killing him, how many hurtful things this Aimu usually does, and I am sorry for Lilia who took the initiative to ask for it.

Hearing Wang Zhi's order, two soldiers immediately walked out behind him to arrest Aimu, who was already paralyzed with fright. In the face of death, Aimu kept struggling and shouting: "Spare your life, spare your life!" ”

Seeing this, the other officials present also had a sense of sadness for the death of a rabbit and a fox, and Zhang Yin had the courage to intercede: "My lord, this Ai Mu is in charge of the military guard, if he suddenly falls, I am afraid that it will be difficult to explain to him." ”

"If you have anything to confess, you just say that he died in battle during the encirclement and suppression of the rogues, and then make noise. Even you will be killed. "Wang Zhi has the idea of eradicating the backward class of feudal officials, if it weren't for the need for time to expand the army, he wouldn't have come to control these guys, but killed them all.

Hearing this unceremonious words, Zhang Yin was a little angry in his heart, but remembering his unpredictable methods, he didn't dare to squeak anymore.

"Didn't you fight Wang Zishun in Yanchuan before, why did you suddenly bring a large army to attack me?"

Wang Zhi asked the question he wanted to ask before, and the officials have always swept the snow in front of their own homes. Generally, they don't care about the thieves who haven't been reported by the officials below, and Wang Zhi doesn't show the appearance of being wealthy, and it stands to reason that he won't be coveted because his wealth is exposed, so why did they bring soldiers to fight themselves as a nobody. It doesn't make sense.

"The subordinates received a letter from the gentry, saying that there were nearly 1,000 people in armor under the lord's hand, which was different from ordinary rogues, but was a real thief, so he brought troops to suppress it." Zhang Yin replied, in fact, he was not very happy to provoke Wang Zhi, a big thief with nearly a thousand armored troops, at first. It's just that if he doesn't move on this matter, and then he is reported to the above, it will not only be a dereliction of duty, but also I heard that ninety percent of Wang Zhi's subordinates are recruits who have been trained for less than a month, so they dare to send troops to fight.

"I didn't think you were so dedicated!" Wang Zhi sneered and asked, "What are the gentry who wrote to you?" ”

"There are not many people who can write directly to their subordinates, most of them are reported through my subordinates, if the lord needs the list, he needs to go back and sort it out."

"No need." Wang Zhi waved his hand, for him, the list is useless at all, anyway, he doesn't need evidence to arrest people, and the backward class, as long as they are not good people and talented people, they must be eradicated.

Wang Zhi turned to Lilia beside him and asked, "Is there anyone in this room who shouldn't be damned?" ”

"Nope."

"No, sure enough, the hearts of this backward class are all the same black." After saying this, Wang Zhi said to Zhang Yuan: "Pick some people you think you need, and then go out." ”

Hearing this, combined with the above sentence, everyone in the house was not stupid, and immediately guessed that Wang Zhi was going to kill those who were not needed, and the petty officials and gentry who were originally carefully hiding couldn't hide, and crawled out of their hiding places one after another, or shouted loudly to swear allegiance to Wang Zhi, or went to have a relationship with Zhang Ranla, in short, they must not be classified as unwanted people.

- Because it takes time and effort to revise the memory, Lilia only modified the memory of Zhang Zhen and a few other key officials, and as for the ordinary gentry, they were not qualified for this treatment.

Wang Zhi would not need these backward classes that would hinder his rule, and Zhang Ran would not have any friendship with the gentry of the small counties in the countryside, so they both ignored them, Zhang Ran just chose a few of his original subordinates and the generals of the official army who were captured by Wang Zhi, and as for the others, whether they said that they had a beautiful daughter or wanted to sacrifice gold and silver, they did not care.

After leaving the house with the chosen people, a killing feast broke out in the house, all kinds of screams were incessant, and everyone outside the house was also silent, even some people who had not been modified by Lilia's memories did not dare to have rebellious thoughts.

Feeling that the deterrence was in place, Wang Zhicai opened his mouth and said: "Your elite family will return it to you, and you will immediately bring the troops back to Yanchuan, just as if you have never come to Yanchang, I don't want to be noticed by the court for the time being." In addition, I need a lot of manpower here, Zhang Yuan, in the name of your Yan'an prefect, drive the displaced people from Yan'an Mansion and even the whole province to me, this is the most important thing at present, do you understand? ”

"Yes, yes, my subordinates understand." Zhang Yuan replied again and again.

"I remember that there are many guards in Yan'an, among which the military households and artisan families are living in poverty, so let's move them all to me, especially the families of the military families who were captured by me, and give priority to relocation."

The military households in the various guard stations, because they are usually exposed to it, are more obedient in discipline than ordinary people, and they are high-quality soldiers, and Wang Zhi will naturally not let them go.

"Yes, yes, my subordinates will do their best to draw military households for the lord."

"I'm leaving, if something happens, send someone to send me a letter, and if you encounter something that can't be solved, send someone to send me a letter, and I will help you solve it."

After saying this, Wang Zhi left the county with the army. (To be continued.) )
