When Changru went north to clear the grassland, Yue Fei and Zhao Long had already converged at the foot of Linhuang Mansion. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
This Linhuang Mansion is the capital of the early Liao Dynasty, after hundreds of years, the city is majestic, the city defense is strong, a large number of materials are stored inside, the soldiers and horses are abundant, and the Western Liao has been operating here for hundreds of years, the foundation is strong, similar to the Yanjing City of Yanyun Sixteen Prefectures, if the Jurchens defend the city, even if the Great Song Dynasty has gunpowder, it will take several months to conquer here, which is also another reason why the Great Song Dynasty is willing to negotiate peace, the soldiers will take this place without bloodshed, it is the most in line with the interests of the Great Song Dynasty, as long as you occupy this city, you can peep into the ancestral land of the Jurchens in the north, control the grassland in the west, and deter Goryeo in the east, which is a rare military townγ
In order to get this city, the Great Song Dynasty reduced the annual coin, promised to open trade in the future, established a port, allowed the Jurchen ships to sail freely in the sea, opened the Fusang Kingdom, and supplied the Jurchens with 10,000 gunpowder shells every year, which took the city.
However, by the time the Jurchens withdrew, most of the materials and population in the city had already gone.
Looking at the hundreds of thousands of troops gathered under the city, the three Qilin Pavilion scholars who came with the army were guarded by hundreds of brocade guards, and said to Zhao Long and Yue Fei: "Two generals, this city is what we spent a lot of effort to get, we can't let the army slaughter, the Jurchens here have already left, only some Liao people are left, and they must be appeased!"
"Two generals, we have to go to the city to count them and prevent the destruction of the city!"
In the face of these three Qilin Pavilion Scholars, Yue Fei didn't say much, Zhao Long was the oldest, and said directly: "The army has come from a hundred battles, and the murderous spirit in his chest is soaring, if they can't let them vent, something big will definitely happen, this Linhuang has been a thief chief for hundreds of years, and now that we have it, how can the army not enter!" "General Zhao Long, I know that you are Your Majesty's personal follower, but this order was given by Your Majesty, does the general want to disobey Your Majesty's decree?"
"General, Linhuang Mansion can't move, but outside Linhuang Mansion, we can't control it!"
Seeing Zhao Long getting angry, another scholar said directly, Zhao Long looked at everyone and snorted coldly, turned to the general behind him and said, "The cities around Linhuang Mansion will not seal the sword for three days!"
After Zhao Long roared, the surrounding armies suddenly headed in all directions, and Yue Fei also waved his hand to let the generals behind him do their own thing.
However, one of the scholars said to Yue Fei: "General Yue, please send a Modao battalion to follow us into the city!"
Yue Fei arched his hand and said: "Yes, it's just that Yue reminds you that the forces in Linhuang Mansion are complicated, and if they are not cleaned, I am afraid it will be difficult to effectively control them!"
Another scholar stepped forward and said with a smile: "General, don't worry, the purge of the army is too harsh, it can only make these barbarians awe for a while, we have our own way to slowly clean the entire Linhuang Mansion." β
When this scholar spoke, there was a sneer on his face, Yue Fei saw the smile of these scholars, and he had a bottom in his heart, these people were afraid that they were going to use soft knives to sharpen these barbarians, and they were not willing to stay here at the moment, knowing that these literati were silent, but it was even more terrifying than the slaughter of the army.
At the moment, he shouted behind him: "Yao Zheng, you lead a thousand Mo Dao battalions into the city and listen to the command of the scholars!"
"Yang Zaixing, you lead a thousand cavalry to camp outside Linhuang Mansion, and you can't leave ten miles away!"
Hearing Yue Fei's general, the scholars smiled and said, "Thank you, general!"
After finishing speaking, these people walked into the Linhuang Mansion under the protection of the army and the Jinyi Guard, and the three of them were in the Linhuang Mansion respectively, starting with the review of the unjust prisons in the city, and beheading the great traitors and evildoers according to the law, and at the same time checking the wartime, taking the opportunity to rob and loot materials, hoarding and hoarding, and all those who violated one of the rules were killed. Every time a person is killed, there are laws that can be checked, and they are all publicized, and thousands of people have been killed according to these laws in a short period of time.
Then let each household report to each other those who have violated the law and committed great evil, and all those who report, whether right or wrong, will be rewarded, and for a time everyone will report each other.
Among these reports, some people really violated the law, and some others took the opportunity to retaliate, but as long as there are people who report it, these people will publicize it without asking the reason, and then kill them.
And for those who are good or famous, and who have not been reported, they secretly instruct others to organize them, and for these people, they do not kill all of them, but choose the most famous people to be killed, or six out of ten.
All the wealth of those who were executed and killed, some of them were established in the Tzu Chi Yuan, adopted the widows, the elderly and the weak who were injured by the war in Linhuang Mansion, and some of them were collected in the government treasury.
According to this method, in just half a month, the entire Linhuang Mansion was killed more than 100,000 people, and 60,000 people were imprisoned and expelled.
At this time, some people in the Linhuang Mansion found out that something was wrong, but they couldn't complain, because some of those people were really the most heinous people, and some of them reported it themselves.
Because of this mutual report, the rest of the people are all in danger and distrust each other, even relatives are also wary of each other, for fear of being betrayed.
At this time, there was no longer any threat in the entire Linhuang Mansion.
And Zhao Long, Yue Fei and others, who were looting outside the city, knew the methods of these people, and couldn't help but tremble.
"Generalissimo Zhao, these literati are too vicious, killing more than 100,000 people is not counted, but also let these people be grateful to Dade, those people want to complain without complaint, and now everyone in the entire Linhuang Mansion is in danger, and they are all like thieves to prevent people!"
Many of the generals who came back from the looting were also horrified when they saw the situation in Linhuang Mansion.
"Lao Tzu would rather rush and kill than deal with these guys, it's too inhumane!"
Zhao Long swept the generals under his command: "Hmph, they are all bad people, you don't always fight and kill, you also have to learn some, so as not to be sold in the future, and give the number of money!"
When Zhao Long saw the situation in Linhuang Mansion, he was reluctant to enter the city.
The generals under Yue Fei's command were also frightened of the methods of several scholars in the city, and some of the disgruntled generals were no longer clamoring to enter the city at this time.
Yue Fei swept the general behind him and said, "Your Majesty wants to choose a general from our army to be stationed here to receive the people from Jiaozhi and Dali, I don't know who wants to stay here?"
Hearing Yue Fei's words, all the generals around him were stunned, but no one was willing to answer.
Now Pang Xing led 10,000 cavalry to sweep Linhuang along the way to the port to ensure the smooth arrival of the people, and in half a month, 30,000 people transported by the navy army will arrive!"
When Yue Fei spoke, Pang Xing immediately took the order and left, unwilling to stay near this Linhuang Mansion.
Yue Fei swept the remaining generals and said, "Follow me into the city!"
At this time, the Great Song Dynasty had already transported a large number of people from the southern seas to Liaodong to fill the population here and dilute the population ratio of the Jurchens and Liao, so that the Great Song Dynasty could effectively implement policies here.
In addition to the corpse mountain blood killed by Zhao Shu, there were 300,000 Song Dynasty people and hundreds of thousands of Dali people who migrated because of the Yellow River's embankment. (To be continued.) )
