Chapter 27: Capturing Zhang Liang alive
With the issuance of Liu Fei's holy edict, the legions quickly launched the border patrol work, and from time to time someone was caught and sent to the assassin Yamen in various states, in this way, the peasant uprising that swept the entire eternal continent still had a certain impact on Xin Han, and many people were brainwashed under the instigation of Zhang Jiao and others, and gave up the original agricultural activities to believe in what they did for nothing, and lived with heaven and earth, and with the sun and the moon. This made Liu Fei very helpless, he couldn't kill all these poor people!
Liu Fei convened all the ministries of Shangshu, and the left and right ministers discussed together in the upper study room, how to solve the current people's boredom and solve these problems from the root.
"Your Majesty, the ministers and others suggest that the land reform movement under the household department be brought forward, so that everyone can distract themselves and let them work on their own land, so that they will not have to give up their harvest to confront the government!"
"Your Majesty, the minister also thinks that the proposal of the left minister is very good, on the one hand, we can take this opportunity to promote the land reform, and on the other hand, we can also use this opportunity to hide those who instigate the people. Zhang Liang, the secretary of the military department, also suggested.
Originally, Liu Fei took the lead in proposing land reform and wanted to solve it as soon as possible, but because it took a certain amount of time to recover the land from the hands of the nobles, and it also needed personnel to slowly check the land area and the population in Xinhan, so as to demarcate the divisible area.
"Well, since all the Aiqing agree that land reform is feasible, then it is decreed that the Xin Han Kingdom will enter the era of land reform. ”
In March of the second year of Kaiyuan, an edict sent from the capital to various places will be originally calm and incomparably calm Xin Han, which can be described as a stone to startle a thousand waves, so that the people of Xin Han are very happy, Xin Han land reform, every family can go to the county government to register the name, and then the county government according to the number of people in each family to give the distribution of land, which makes every household of the people go to the county government to register the name.
In a county town in the north-east direction of the capital, two young people were discussing in a low voice.
"Third brother, what is this emperor of the Xin Han Kingdom going to do, he actually distributed the land to those useless people, and I don't know what he thinks!"
"Maybe it's to distract those mud-legged people, so that they will pounce on their own land, and no one will come to our uprising. ”
"Then what should we do, now in the entire Eternal Continent, I'm afraid that this Xinhan Kingdom is the richest and most stable, if we can't fool these mud legs, our plans will be in vain. ”
"Now we can only wait, when they are freed from the joy of the land, and then our opportunity will come, and if we go out and fool them now, I am afraid it will be counterproductive, and it will cause unnecessary losses to our plans. ”
"Your Majesty, I'd like to see you!" Liu Fei was going to the study to read the folds, when Xiao Guizi suddenly came to report.
"Oh, let him in!" It seems that the long line released today is useful, and the fish are starting to bite, so I wonder if it is a big fish worth celebrating!
"Long live the old slave, long live everything!"
"Princess, you are here, you have worked hard, this time is okay!"
"Your Majesty, the old slave is all right, thanks to Your Majesty's affection, now the Jinyi Guards have a scale of thousands of people, and their loyalty is absolutely reliable, Your Majesty, you can rest assured that you can use them. ”
"It's been a hard time, how are things going today?"
"Your Majesty, the old slave admires, in addition to the first emperor, you are the most admired by the old slave, I really let you guess right, I Xin Han really have yellow turban thieves, they live in a private house in the eastern suburbs of the city, our people also overheard their speech, saying that they want to wait for the wind to continue to make waves in my Xin Han. The prince told Liu Fei the news he got as it was.
The third brother, who can be called the elder brother, should be the senior leader of the Yellow Turban, otherwise he would never have been sent to Xinhan, could it be him? Zhang Jiao's younger brother, Zhang Liang, the general of the people, if it is really him, it is an incomparably fat fish.
After the prince withdrew, Liu Fei said to Xiao Guizi:
"Go and call Zilong over, let's go catch fish!"
"Your Majesty, how many people do we have to take with us?" As soon as he heard that he was going to catch fish, Zhao Yun suddenly became extremely active. Every day is running back and forth between the various city gates, patrolling back and forth, and there are no suspicious people, and now there are people who come to find trouble without opening their eyes, what kind of lesson should they be given!
Liu Fei and others came to the eastern suburbs of the county, in a private house outside the eastern suburbs, Zhang Liang and others were already asleep, Liu Fei and others quietly approached this place, with Liu Fei's order, the soldiers of the Royal Forest Army around the house immediately rushed into the room, and a group of members of the Yellow Turban Army who were still asleep had not woken up from their sleep, and they had been arrested.
"Your Majesty, there are twelve people in total, and no other suspicious places have been found in the house!"
"Hmm!" Liu Fei nodded to Zhao Yun, Zhao Yun was still relieved that Liu Fei was still relieved.
"Who are you, and what are you doing here?" asked Liu Fei to the people who were escorted to the ground.
"This lord, we are in business, passing through here, resting here for a night, please forgive me, please understand!"
"Oh, that's a businessman! What's your name and where are you from?"
"Little Zhu San, from Wei Guohe County!"
"It turned out to be from Wei Guohe County, what about your boss Zhang Liang?"
"It turns out that Childe knows our boss, but I'm sorry, our boss is not here today, and he went out to meet the guests. ”
"Oh, it turns out that Zhang Liang is not here, so when will he come back?"
"I don't know. ”
"I don't know, it's good that you don't know the so-called Yellow Turban Army, in front of me, you actually used clever words to deceive me, it seems that you really don't know the sky and the earth, and you are extremely bold. Come on, pull it out and cut it. ”
"Yes!" Immediately someone came over, ready to pull them out and behead them.
"You, you, you are the emperor of the Xin Han Kingdom, and you are the one who ordered the land reform!"
"Presumptuous, what kind of thing are you, you dare to question Your Majesty. It is really a sin that deserves death, and it is simply innocent of death. The other party actually questioned Liu Fei, which annoyed Zhao Yun, and he raised his sword and prepared to slash at Zhu San.
"Ah, spare your life, Your Majesty the Emperor spare your life, the grass people know that they are wrong, spare their lives!" Zhao Yun's roar frightened Zhu San.
"Zilong, forget it!" Liu Fei stopped Zhao Yun. Then he continued to say to Zhu San: "I ask you to answer now, if there is half a lie, I will not forgive." Frightened, Zhu San replied yes again and again.
"How many people are there on your trip?"
"Except for the third brother Zhang Liang, there are fifteen of us. ”
"Oh, fifteen people, there are only twelve of you here now, which means that the other three are all following Zhang Liang. ”
"Well, yes, the other three brothers have gone out with the third brother. ”
"And what is the purpose of your trip?"
"The eldest brother told us to follow the third brother to Xinhan, and the eldest brother said that Xinhan is much richer than other countries, so let's come here to pull more peasants and raise more funds for the holy war. ”
Sure enough, as Liu Fei expected, they came to Xinhan with a powerful purpose, if they let their conspiracy succeed, not to mention that they would develop Xinhan strong, I am afraid they would have to go back ten years. The most important thing now is to catch Zhang Liang and let him wander outside is the biggest scourge. Liu Fei called over Zhao Yun and the others, asked them to change all the clothes of the Yellow Turban soldiers, and brought people here to wait for Zhang Liang to come back.
The next day, Zhao Yun came back with a young man in tow.
