After the Wei army rushed into the city, it was like a tiger entering a flock of sheep, chasing the Hu people who were running around like headless flies and waved their butcher knives.

"Huh!"

"Poof!" A captain of the Wei army rode over, and as soon as the ring-headed iron knife in his hand slashed, it directly cut through Hu Rao's chest in front of him, and blood sprayed out. Then the Hu man fell to the ground and vomited blood and died.

At this time, the Hu people no longer had the slightest power to resist, they cried and shouted, spread their feet and ran around, and even hid in private houses, but it was useless, some Wei pawns could see them from a long distance.

No, a team of Wei pawns broke into the house and killed the Hu people when they saw them.

More than 10,000 people in Qiaocheng were all killed by the Hu people, and under the propaganda of Ran Min, the soldiers of the Wei army hated these violent and wanton Hu people.

"Spare me! I don't want to die! ”

"Spare my life!"

"Help!"

Escape, there is no way to escape, so these Hu people can only kneel on the ground and kowtow vigorously, begging these Wei troops to let them go.

But Ran Min's military order has been issued, he wants to kill all of these Hu people without leaving any of them, and kill them all!

Even if it was the Hu people who knelt on the ground and cried to surrender, those heavily armed Wei soldiers would not be merciful, they knelt down and begged for mercy, and directly slashed them with a knife, so that the Hu people's heads were different!

Spare these Hu people? Is it possible?

When they brutally slaughtered the people of Qiaocheng, killed those unarmed people, and humiliated those poor Han girls, did they ever think about what would happen to them!?

Seeing that the Wei army was so brutal that they were not even allowed to surrender, many Hu people rose up to resist, but it was useless to wait for Hu Rao, and they still died in anger.

After Ran Min entered the city, he went straight to the government office of Qiaocheng.

"Have you ever found Pu Jing and Yao Xiang?"

"Your Majesty, I have not found it. Now that the city is in a scuffle, the fight is in full swing, and I really don't know where these two thieves are hiding! ”

"Be sure to find them!" Ran Min said in a deep voice: "If you don't cut the two thieves of Pu and Yao with thousands of knives, crush the bones and scatter ashes, I will never give up!" ”

"The minister will go down to deliver the military order."

"Wait!"

Ran Min stopped Wei Liao, thought for a while, and said, "The Hu people of the government will leave a few alive first, and be sure to ask about the whereabouts of Yao Xiang and Pu Jing." ”

"No!"

Not long after, Wei Liao led a team of soldiers to arrest a few Hu people, who were Yao Xiang's personal soldiers. Yao Xiang is very ruthless, not only ruthless to others, but even more ruthless to himself.

Yao Xiang had already committed suicide by poisoning, but asked his soldiers to bury his bodies and ordered the soldiers to commit suicide. But no one is not afraid of death, so these pro-soldiers escaped several times, and only then did they confess the place where Yao Xiang's body was buried.

Even if Ran Mindang asked people to dig up Yao Xiang's body, burn it, and hang his head on the head of the city, and then the corpse was burned and scattered into the air, it was really a bone and ashes!

As for Pu Jing, he couldn't escape at all and was captured alive.

Then he was slashed alive three hundred and sixty times in public, and he was hurt to death.

Of the more than 100,000 Hu people in Qiaocheng, none of them remained, and they were all killed by the Wei army.

The city has become a ghost city, Ran Min simply did not do anything, let people burn down this city, and the fire burned for three or three nights, which can be regarded as completely cleaning away the filth of Hulu.

Thousands of years from now, perhaps decades from now, the city will rise again.

After breaking the city and slaughtering more than 100,000 Hulu, Ran Min's war in the southern expedition was completely over.

Ran Min immediately returned to the court, and the people along the way heard the news and rushed to say goodbye.

"Long live my emperor, long live, long live!"

In the hall of the beam, the ministers shouted a tsunami and knelt down.

"Flat!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

The chamberlain stood up and screamed: "If there is something to start, there is nothing to retreat!" ”

It was Shang Shu who ordered Cui Hao to stand up first and said, "Your Majesty, the minister has something to do!" ”

"Please."

"Your Majesty, my Great Wei conquered the Jin Kingdom in the south, opened up thousands of miles of land, and Yangzhou, Yuzhou, Jiangzhou, Xuzhou, and even various overseas Chinese states of the Jin Dynasty have been taken. However, its vast land, numerous counties, and population of two million must be properly governed! However, the imperial court was saturated with local officials, and there were not many filial piety, so it was impossible to send local officials to govern Jiangdong. Your Majesty, please be clear! ”

This is a serious problem.

Over the years, the Wei State has recruited a lot of talents and officials, but as the Wei army has been fighting for many years, Dingguanzhong, destroying the Qiuchi, opening up the Xiliang, going out of the Western Regions, and going south to Jiangdong, laying down such a huge territory, increasing so much population and land, it can't all rely on the original local officials to govern, right?

First of all, Ran Min is not at ease, the first one is that the Wei State is simply unable to form an effective control over the city land that has just been occupied!

Ran Min frowned and said, "Did Jiangdong's original officials run to Jiangling?" ”

"Yes."

In this way, some of the original officials in Jiangdong can stay in office, and after evaluating their talents, regardless of their background or qualifications, they can serve as local officials as appropriate. At the same time, he ordered all prefectures and counties to nominate filial piety and honesty, and they could go to Jiangdong to serve as officials. Officials at the county level can be Xiaolian, but at the state and county levels, officials should be sent by the imperial court. ”

"Your Majesty Shengming!"

Jiangdong is not a barren place, a remote place, on the contrary, it is very rich, so many officials will squeeze their heads to want to enter. For this, Ran Min has no doubt at all.

At this time, Cui Hao said again: "Your Majesty, the other treasury is already empty. After a series of wars, the treasury has run out of money and food, and now that the army has returned to the dynasty, His Majesty needs to reward the three armies and reward the meritorious soldiers, but the gold, silver, copper coins, jade silk, cloth, etc. in the treasury are completely insufficient. ”

"What?"

As soon as these words came out, Ran Min was suddenly startled.

"Why is there such a big deficit?"

Cui Hao smiled bitterly and said, "Your Majesty, the matter of fighting is not over for the time being. The pension of the dead soldiers, and the meritorious soldiers must receive a certain reward, which is a large amount of expenses! Moreover, in recent years, His Majesty has engaged in military cantonments, dug the Grand Canal, and fought in the south and in the north, which still depends on the year and the implementation of the uniform land system, so that the people have not starved to death in various places! ”

Ran Min frowned: "Cui Hao, the army has entered Jiankang, haven't I already let people empty the treasury of the Jin Kingdom?" Isn't that enough? ”

"It's not enough!" Cui Hao smiled bitterly and said: "The treasury of the Jin Kingdom is not full, and its treasures are a lot, but it is difficult to sell them, and I don't know how to change hands." Moreover, the Jin State has gone through the Great Gap War, and its finances are not abundant, and the situation is not much better than the treasury of our Wei State! ”

“……”

Ran Min also had nothing to do, so he said: "Let's discuss it with all the secretaries." Meritorious soldiers must be duly rewarded, and pensions for fallen soldiers must also be in place! ”

Just kidding, if the court can't do merit, it will be rewarded, guilty will be punished, and rewards and punishments will be clear, so how can it establish its own prestige?

If there is no pension for the soldiers who died in battle, not only will the prestige of the imperial court be lost, it may shake the morale of the army, and more seriously, it may cause a mutiny in the army!

After all, there is not even a pension, who will give Da Wei his life?

At this time, Xu Ji stood up and said: "Your Majesty, since the treasury can't come up with so much money to reward soldiers and issue pensions for a while, it's better to put it aside for the time being and make up for it later." The ministers heard that some liquor shops and teahouses among the people have the practice of giving money on credit, and the prestige of the imperial court is like this, so it is better to give them credit for the time being, and then give them back the reward and pension in the future! ”

"Lord Xu's words are wrong!" Cui Hao glared and said, "The imperial court pays credit to the soldiers, how can it be reasonable?" On credit, that is a folk practice, how can the imperial court follow suit? ”

"Then I don't know what Master Cui is going to do? If you don't pay it, you can't do it, and if you don't pay it, you can't just reward some meritorious soldiers, or only give out some soldiers' pensions, right? ”

"This ......" Cui Hao was dumbfounded.

"Your Majesty, I think there is another way." At this time, Cheng Wei Hu stood up in the imperial history. ”

"Please."

"Your Majesty can lower the standard of rewarding soldiers, and you can lower the pension paid to fallen soldiers! The monetary standard of the imperial court to reward soldiers and compensate the fallen soldiers is too high, much higher than that of the Jin State, and more than twice that of the Jin army! Your Majesty might as well start from here, so that the imperial court can also not lose its prestige! ”

Hearing this, Ran Min said lightly: "How can the imperial court not lose its prestige in this way?" The standard is set by me, how can it be changed day and night, how can it be child's play? ”

"Your Majesty, this is just a stopgap measure."

"Neither does expediency!"
