Master Liu and Governor Zhao originally thought that their more than 10,000 private soldiers would be able to resist Lan Yu at least for a while, not to mention guarding Hongdu for more than a hundred days like Zhu Wenzheng, at least for a day or two, right?

Once the 'rebels' were delayed, they could be rewarded by the imperial court, after all, there was no regular army in the state capital.

Unexpectedly, in less than half an hour, the city was breached by the 'rebels'.

The prefect and aristocratic lord, who had never been on the battlefield, were as vulnerable as a three-year-old child in front of a fierce general like Lan Yu. Not to mention anything else, the first time they saw the corpses and stumps under the artillery fire, and heard the rumbling shouts of killing, the two of them felt like they wanted to pee their pants. didn't pee on the spot, even if they had a strong psychological quality.

"It's boring." Soon, Lan Yu entered the city with his soldiers.

Zhao Wenzhong and Master Liu were helpless and ready to surrender.

Master Liu didn't feel too much danger before he could, and he even felt that if he could come up with some money and food to curry favor with the 'rebellious' Lan Yu, he might still be reused.

Just like those feudal aristocrats who supported the peasant rebel army.

At the beginning, Li Shanchang was engaged in logistics in the rear, didn't he rely on winning over these feudal nobles? The feudal nobles took out money and grain, and Li Shanchang promised to give them official positions.

However, at this time, Lan Yu took out the holy decree in front of them.

"Fengtian carries the emperor, and the edict says: "This Fengtian carrying the emperor is the first initiative of Lao Zhu, Lan Yu reads, "The edict of the Dadu Governor's Mansion is Lan Yu, and the Jiangzhou Mansion, all the in-service officials, Xu officials, and all the cadres are punished!" ”

"Chin this!"

He actually has a holy decree!?

Master Liu and Governor Zhao were dumbfounded when they heard it.

"Lan Yu's attack on his own city is actually acting on orders, not a rebellion!?"

"Zhu Yuanzhang let his general Lan Yu attack his own city!?"

Lao Zhu's operation, everyone on the scene could understand it, and no one could figure it out. Even some of the people who are good and bold, and who look at the excitement from a distance are also confused.

】

When Blue Jade attacked the city, everyone thought he was a 'rebel'.

However, after he conquered the city, he issued a holy decree.

Is there an emperor in the world who sent troops to attack his own city?

How magical is this?

At the same time, the holy decree said that the emperor sent Lan Yu to attack the city in order to arrest all the officials in Jiangzhou and punish them, which made the people dare not believe their ears.

For a time, the people rushed to tell each other.

Lan Yu did not drag the mud and water, after reading the holy decree, he directly collected the holy decree and instructed his generals: "Come here, take down all the people on the scene, and leave no one." ”

"Wait! May I ask General Lan, what is my crime? Zhao Wenzhong struggled and wanted to quibble and fight.

"General Lan, is there any misunderstanding in this?" Master Liu also said, "Can the grass people ask General Lan to take a step to speak?" "It looks like he's trying to bribe Lan Yu in the shadows.

With the wealth of his Liu family, he didn't believe that he couldn't buy Lan Yu, the so-called money could be channeled. At the same time, the Liu family still has a very hard backstage in the court, and he believes that Lan Yu will have some scruples after hearing it.

"You and the grass people actually united with the prefect-level court officials to resist the imperial army at the head of the city, saying that you have no collusion between the officials and gentry, and the ghosts will not believe it!" Lan Yu said coldly, "You thief, you are not worthy to talk to General Ben. ”

"Please General Lan declare me guilty, otherwise I will not accept death." Zhao Wenzhong said.

"Dead duck with a hard mouth! What are your crimes, just ask the people of Jiangzhou. Lan Yu sneered and said to the people around him, "Do you all know what crimes Master Liu and Governor Zhao have committed?" ”

"The emperor and this general are here to call the shots for you, and everyone is welcome to report it."

However, the people at the scene looked at Master Liu and Governor Zhao, who had already knelt down to the law, and because of their usual prestige, none of them dared to speak.

The crowd knew it very well.

Although the emperor and Lan Yu arrested Master Liu and Governor Zhao, they couldn't really do it at all and made decisions for them. The emperor sentenced them to a few years and ten years, and then they came out in a year or two through a relationship, and then they would launch crazy revenge on the person who reported it. If such people don't kill, it's not enough for the people to feel at ease to report it.

In addition, the Liu family has deep roots in Jiangzhou, and only caught Master Liu and his family, which could not solve the actual problem at all. His protégés, the sons and nephews of the seven aunts and eight aunts, all held important positions in the government.

If they dare to point out Master Liu's crimes now, I'm afraid they won't know how they died in the future.

Even if the emperor exterminated the Liu family and punished the nine clans, he would not be able to solve the problem. Because there are no relatives, the Liu family still has friends, as well as people they have promoted before.

The Liu family is like a towering tree, with a thick trunk on the outside, but there are thousands of roots and tendrils under the trunk.

The trunk of the tree has fallen, but the invisible roots of the tree under the ground are still there.

As for reporting Zhao Wenzhong, they didn't dare to do so. Zhao Wenzhong is the prefect, as the saying goes, the people don't fight with the officials, not to mention that the other party is still a big official like the prefect.

It would be naïve for them to come forward and report it now.

"Please feel free to report it." Lan Yu also seemed to see the concerns of the crowd, and said, "The emperor is going to thoroughly clean the government of Jiangzhou this time. ”

"All the personnel of the Jiangzhou Yamen will be beheaded."

"In other words, the relatives and friends of the Liu family, the protégés and former officials will all die."

"What about the big roots of the Liujia tree?"

"The big tree of the Liu family, the emperor not only wants to push its trunk to, but also cut off all the thousands of roots and whiskers that are buried deep in the ground. This time, the emperor is uprooting the weeping willows! ”

"The Liu family is like this, let alone the Zhao Governor's Mansion."

"So you don't have to worry about their relatives and friends at all, and they will retaliate against you in the future. Because they have no relatives anymore, not even old ones. ”

To behead them all!?

When the people heard this, their hearts trembled.

In the Jiangzhou government system, there are thousands of officials in total, plus the officials guarding the door, there are tens of thousands in total!

Emperor Zhu actually wanted to behead them all!

This kind of thing is really unprecedented.

Emperor Zhu is indeed like a giant, with his feet on the ground, and then with his majestic power, he uprooted a big tree.

The tree is so big that it absorbs all the nutrients in a place, because the ground is full of its roots. How can other small saplings survive because the big tree shades the sky and the sun?

This kind of truth is understood by the people who farm the land.

"Upside down the weeping willows! Pull out the big tree of the Liu family! ”

"What a powerful Emperor Zhu!"

"It's terrifying!"

"There is no angry vajra, and there is no bodhisattva's heart."

"So those mountain guards in front of the mountain gate are all eight feet tall and have green faces and fangs."

The crowd gasped.
