Chapter 270

Li Xiao stood on the high platform with a blue face, and the lesson this time made Li Xiao understand how difficult it was to organize a large-scale group fight with tens of thousands of participants.

Time, place, people. The speed of the march, the supply of food and grass, and the smooth flow of the road are all things that the main general should consider.

Isn't this a fucking thing supposed to be done by a counselor? It's a job that should be done by a staff officer, but now he has a staff officer. Therefore, everything is pressed on Li Xiao.

The poor road conditions in Shandong became the biggest obstacle to the speed of the march. Li Xiao set off from Zibo and was out of touch with Man Gui for a night. It is precisely because of this night that the streets of Jinan City are full of corpses. More than 4,000 people died, including more than 200 people from Mangui's department.

Unable to tell who was against whom in the dark, Man Gui's brothers chased down the thugs and ended up surrounded by a large gang. Coupled with Chen Hailong's remnant attack, it is inevitable that he will suffer.

One of the craziest anti-crime activities in Jinan City began, as long as it was related to the people who participated in the riots that night. All of them were arrested, and any indefinite sentences were waived. The military is an organ of violence, not a judge.

For Li Xiao, whether these people are guilty or not is a matter for the king of Hades. His mission is to send them to Hades!

More than 1,700 people were arrested, and some of them must have not taken part in that night's unrest. But none of them were wronged, and they were all arrested one by one, and the people reported them.

If everyone says bad things about you, then you are not a problem of bad popularity, but a real problem. There is no time to identify, as long as it appears frequently in the mouths of the people, it is a capital crime.

A total of more than 1,700 people have been arrested in Jinan City, and today is their last day.

Man Gui was carrying a hammer in his hand, which was full of brains. Walked up to a person and tapped it according to the heavenly spirit cover, and the guy immediately fell to the ground like a broken sack and sobbed.

Blunt blows are much more powerful than sabers, and in the end, family members can sew bodies and heads together when they cut people with sabers. According to our Huaxia people, this can be regarded as barely having a whole corpse.

The hammer is different, and the heavenly spirit cover is smashed. The whole head was smashed, and the whole corpse would definitely not be able to talk about it. If the family wants to collect the body, they can only identify it by the clothes on it.

The hated Man Gui didn't even give these guys a chance to collect the corpses, regardless of whether these people had his brother's blood on their hands or not. Man Gui treated them as sticky, who made them feel uneasy in the evil township on weekdays.

Next to the execution ground was a huge fire, and the guys who were smashed didn't care if they were dead or not. Throw it into the fire!

As a direct consequence, there are often guys in the fire who kick their legs and stretch their paws. It's full of fire and moving there, and it's scary to look at. Among the onlookers from afar, some children were so frightened that they couldn't cry.

At the end of the day, Li Xiao was disgusted. Man Gui is still tirelessly knocking people's brains, and at this time his body is already splashed with brains, flowing down his boots, very disgusting.

"Brother Xiao, will it be too much. After all, this is also the people of the Ming Dynasty, Liwei is right, but he won't kill so many people. Sun Chengzong was a little worried.

Looking at the more than 200 years of the Ming Dynasty, it is probably the first time that so many civilians have been publicly executed in this way.

There were more than 100,000 onlookers outside the execution ground, and even the city walls were full of people looking this way. It was at this time that the capital was engaged in Wei Zhongxian's affairs, otherwise this matter would be stabbed by the Yanguan, and the world would immediately be in an uproar.

Rentu's hat is buttoned on his head, and Li Xiao's reputation is afraid that in the future, it will stink for 800 miles against the wind.

"When we first arrived in Jinan, it was inevitable to use people's lives to establish authority. It is better to use the lives of these wretched gangsters to establish authority than to take the lives of ordinary people. Without these people, the security of Jinan City would only be better.

There may be some among them who are guilty of not death, but there is not a single one who is not hated by the neighbors. Whether they were there or not they participated in that night's riot, I took them as if they were there.

As for those imperial historians, didn't Lao Tzu kill people when he put down the rebellion? Chen Hailong killed Qin Cha, it was a rebellion. I'm counterinsurgent! ”

"Okay! You kid have a good reason for this, even if you face the saint, you can't find fault with it. Sun Chengzong nodded, deeply convinced of Li Xiao's reason.

Tomorrow, no matter what you do, it's hurtful. Rebellion is the biggest crime, whether you are a royal prince or a beggar on the street. If you are charged with treason, you will definitely die. What's more, Chen Hailong is a rebellion, not a rebellion. It is a fitting thing to use this as a shield.

"The political envoy of Shandong is the old man's errand, and you don't have to worry about the affairs on the ground in Shandong in the future. Now the problem is that there is no money, I checked. The Shandong treasury has been in deficit year after year, and the money on this account does not match the money of the domain treasury at all.

has already taken the small officials of the political envoy to ask, and some of them were greedy by Chen Hailong. This part is easy to do, Chen Hailong's belongings were not taken away, and they can be confiscated.

But there is still a large part of it, which was taken by Chen Hailong to the capital as a gift. Guess who receives the most gifts? ”

"Then you don't need to ask, Wei Zhongxian!" Li Xiao glanced at Sun Chengzong with contempt, this kind of question that can be thought of with an ass is actually used to test me.

"Wrong!" Sun Chengzong said slowly, like a bear child who teased a cat.

"Wrong?" Li Xiao turned his head to look at Sun Chengzong, Chen Hailong did not pay the highest bribe to Wei Zhongxian, what kind of joke is this.

"The largest amount was given to the first emperor!" Sun Chengzong pouted helplessly, this student of his own, really collects any money.

"Uh......! That is, is the money going to come back? Li Xiao was extremely frustrated, and gave the emperor's money to follow up on the meat in the tiger's mouth. If you want to take it out, you have to have the consciousness of martyrdom.

"Not only will this money not be returned, but the money that Chen Hailong sent to Beijing will not be returned. The news just came that Wei Zhongxian was finished.

His henchmen will soon be finished, and the money sent by Chen Hailong will soon be confiscated. When you get the money to the household, do you think you can get it back? ”

"Grandma, a bear! How much money is left in the domain? Li Xiao asked through gritted teeth.

"Ten thousand taels!" Sun Chengzong said the number slowly.

"What?" Li Xiao's eyes widened.

In the dignified Shandong Domain, there were only 10,000 taels of silver. It's better to have more than one treasury in Shanhaiguan, at least there is the 500,000 taels of silver he just got from Wei Zhongxian to make a foundation.

"Yes! There are thousands of big and small officials in Shandong, and tens of thousands of officials. People eat horses and chew horses, plus the office expenses of the yamen, and they can't get 20,000 taels of silver a month. You're going to have to think about it, Lord Governor! Sun Chengzong spoke slowly.

Anyway, now you are the governor of Shandong, and now you have no money. You've got to think about it!

"I'm ......!" Li Xiao's brain hurts. How can his mother ask Lao Tzu for money, Ai Hu wrote two days before his death that the price of rice in Jiangnan has risen again. 500,000 taels of silver, he has to fill the hole in the price of rice in the south of the Yangtze River.

There is no way to do it, hundreds of thousands of people in Liaodong have to eat and drink. Last year's grain production was only half, and the 200,000 displaced people in the capital who had just arrived in Jinzhou in September had to feed themselves. Unless Li Xiao has the ability to grow crops in Liaodong in winter.

Money! Money! Money! Lao Tzu likes to lead troops to fight, and he doesn't like to drill money every day.

His mother's leading soldiers to fight is also inseparable from money, and so many soldiers have to be paid every month. There is also a need for food, bedding and clothing for accommodation. Training to ammunition, depreciation and wear of equipment. It's all fucking money!

Li Xiao covered his head, this is even more damn uncomfortable than watching Man Gui smash other people's Tianling Gai.

"There are 800,000 taels of silver in the capital waiting for you to get it, and Wei Zhongxian will speak before he falls. He said that he wanted you to go to the capital to get it in person, how about it? Take a walk? Sun Chengzong laughed "hey", "hey", "hey". Looks like this old guy has been up to the eye for a long time!

"It's so chaotic in the capital, you're not afraid that I will go to the capital and be hacked by the new emperor. This governor of Shandong, but it came out of his mouth. ”

"Don't worry about this, what the emperor wants now is stability. If you move, Wei Zhongxian is more qualified than you. Why didn't Wei Zhongxian move?

Today's emperor wants to seek stability and deal with all problems steadily. If Wei Zhongxian had been moved, it would have been too drastic and would have caused turmoil in the country.

Now the Tartars are dormant, but they have not been destroyed. I heard that the Guangxi Tusi in the south is starting to move again, and the ground in the northwest is not peaceful. The Mongols don't make much trouble, but in recent years there have been many troubles. The imperial court can't help it!

If you are moved, what will happen to the Tartars of Liaodong? Now you understand, why didn't the old man let you attack Shenyang in such a hurry to level the Tartars. This is called raising the self-respect, and the Tartars have been exterminated. What's the use of you, Li Xiao, plus you have soldiers in your hands. That's when the emperor will find a way to kill you!

The cunning rabbit is dead, and the lackeys are cooking! The birds are all gone, and the good bow is hidden!

Now there are rabbits all over the ground, and he is not willing to kill you, the hound. He also expects you to catch all the rabbits and shoot down all the birds in the sky. ”

The old political hooligan is really extraordinary, and Sun Chengzong made Li Xiao's situation clear in a few words.

"You go to the capital now generously, the new emperor must want to make some political achievements when he ascends the throne. Not only will he not understand your bad intentions, but he will also try his best to trap you.

When I asked you when the Tartars would be flat, you first boasted about the strength of the Tartars. No matter how fierce the Tartar soldiers are, you can say whatever they want to be evil anyway.

Then, you talk about how hard your men fought. Finally you give him a reassurance, saying that as long as the food is sufficient. Belch......! Five years, five years can pacify Liaodong.

That way, you'll be fine. Maybe you can get some benefits, the old man has been an official for so many years, and this little thing is in his heart.

I don't tell him about ordinary people! ”
