my wife is mulan

This time not only the Baba family was executed, but also a branch of the Wang family in Youzhou. When the government sent people to measure the acres of land and collect taxes, this Wang family sent out soldiers and had a fierce conflict with the officials. One official and three petty officials were killed in the conflict.

This is one of the most serious crimes against the government. Of course, the governor's office cannot tolerate this kind of behavior. It quickly dispatched troops to disarm the Wang family, forcibly incorporated the family soldiers owned by the Wang family into the army, and sent all the Wang family members into the army. All of the more than one hundred people were imprisoned and awaiting treatment.

After leaving the city, many residents saw a large number of civilians gathered around the enclosed execution ground. The officials had not yet arrived, and the criminals had not yet arrived.

The sun was gradually rising and the temperature was getting hotter and hotter. The beheading officer and representatives of the nobles, businessmen, and common people who were invited to watch the execution came to sit on the stage together.

Soon, the main criminal was locked in the prison cart and pulled over by a horse-drawn cart, and the secondary criminals were driven over by the soldiers wearing shackles and shackles.

Seeing Baba's family pass by in a prison van, some people on the side of the road suddenly yelled, "Smash him to death!"

"Smash him to death!" Someone immediately echoed.

Suddenly, a large number of rotten vegetables, rotten eggs, and small stones flew from both sides and hit the members of the Baba family.

Ba Ba’s family has been in Youzhou for decades, and they have done countless evil deeds. The people of Youzhou have long wanted to eat his flesh and drink his blood, but now they just throw rotten vegetables, rotten eggs and stones. It is really difficult to understand the hatred in my heart.

The weather was very hot, but the enthusiasm of the people remained undiminished. It was not until the sun was in the middle, and the shadow on the ground overlapped with the pole, that the supervisor stood up and said loudly: "The Baba family of Xianbei and the Wang family fought against the government, not only refused to pay taxes , Injured and killed officials, it is the worst disease, but Jun Nian has the virtue of good life in heaven, and the death penalty for them is not the purpose of the government, but to deter those who still want to continue to fight against the government and resist to the end, so This time, the envoy decided to execute only the males with the blood of the Baba family and the Wang family, and the women, servants, maidservants, grooms, etc. in the family were all exempted from the death penalty and dealt with separately."

After finishing speaking, the execution supervisor looked at the benchmark and immediately said: "The time has come, execution!"

An arrow was dropped on the ground with a loud crash.

The executioners picked up the wine bowls and took a sip of the wine in their mouths, and then sprayed it on the butcher knife.

"cut--"

The executioners swung their knives and chopped them down together. The heads rolled to the ground one by one, and the bodies fell to the ground after spurting blood and arrows.

"Okay, good kill, good kill!"

"God has opened his eyes!"

Many of the onlookers cheered, and many wept with joy.

Governor's House.

Zhao Junsheng walked up and down the hall with his hands behind his back, and said to the officials and generals present: "After today's execution, I believe that no one in Fanyang and Yanjun will dare not pay taxes anymore. Those Xianbei nobles and gentry If you want to follow in the footsteps of the Ba family and the Wang family, this general has plenty of means to deal with them! Next, we have to deal with the hard bone of Yuyang County. General Zhenbei and Yuyang prefect Feng Da have five thousand soldiers in their hands. This man Unruly, I'm afraid it's not so easy to obey this general. Until now, the government orders of the Governor's Mansion have been difficult to carry out in Yuyang County. From the Taishou's Mansion to the county government below, there is no one who implements the Governor's Government's orders. What do you think? How will Ben open the situation in Yuyang County?"

Officials and generals whispered to each other and discussed in low voices.

Zhao Junsheng saw Dongfang Chen stroking his beard non-stop, and was about to inquire, when a small official came in and reported: "Master, the execution ground outside the city has been executed, and all members of the Baba family and the Wang family have been beheaded. The common people cheered thunderously, and most of them were so happy that they couldn't make a sound, bowed down to the governor's mansion and prayed for the envoy's blessing!"

Zhao Junsheng looks serious

He solemnly said to the officials and generals: "Listen, have you heard that? As long as you serve as an official, as long as you do something that benefits the people, the people will never forget you! Are you short of money? No shortage; Do you lack fame? Who is not famous in the counties and villages here? What do you lack? It is achievement!"

"For you, it is not difficult to be an official, but the difficulty is how to do a good job! If you are an official, you only care about money, have no political achievements, do not uphold justice for the people, and do not do good things for the people. Even if you are an extremely human minister, what's the use? People will only say that you are an idiot, and your official reputation is not a good reputation, but a bad reputation!"

"Okay, let's get down to business! Mr. Dongfang, what measures do you think should be taken regarding Fengta and Yuyang County?"

Dongfang Chen was called by Zhao Junsheng, so he had to stand up, walked to the middle of the lobby and cupped his hands and said, "My lord, I have a thought that my subordinates are too poisonous, and I don't know whether I should say it or not."

"It's okay to talk about it, whether to accept it or not depends on the general!" Zhao Junsheng encouraged.

Dongfang Chen immediately said: "You can send an official letter to Feng Da first, and call him in the name of the governor of Youzhou to report the military affairs of Yuyang County. Yuyang divides his party members, wins over a group, disposes of a group, and at the same time sends a troop to intimidate his generals so that they don't dare to act rashly, and then removes and purges his loyal troops!"

"If he doesn't come, you can send a small group of elite cavalry to be active in the border areas of Yan State under the banner of Fengda, looting their villages and attacking their towns, so as to anger Yan State and make Yan State unbearable. If you send troops to Yuyang, if Feng Ta is defeated, you will definitely send envoys to ask for help, so that you don't have to pay attention to him. When he loses most of his strength, he will quickly send troops to repel the Yan army, and take the opportunity to control Yuyang, incorporate the Yuyang army, and take it to the sky. Feng Da, at that time, whether Feng Da is dead or alive is not in the mind of the king?"

Pei Jin next to him said: "Isn't it good to kill Feng Da? After all, he is the general of Zhenbei, and his rank is still higher than that of the envoy! With resentment!"

"Hmph, who can blame this? If he hadn't supported Tuoba Pi with Ba Ba Song back then, why did this happen?" Cao Jiao said.

Zhao Junsheng thought for a while and nodded, "Mr. Dongfang's strategy is good! Send an official letter to Feng Da first, calling him to come to the governor's office to report on his work!"

In the next few days, after hearing that the Baba family and the Wang family were exterminated, the Xianbei nobles and nobles in Fanyang and Yanjun did not dare to fight against the government anymore, and obediently paid taxes according to the actual land.

These Xianbei nobles and gentry have all paid taxes, and those unruly people who plan to carry it to the end naturally can't carry it anymore, so they can only grit their teeth and hand in the overcharged taxes.

So far, Fanyang and Yan County have been completely controlled by Zhao Junsheng. In order to check and balance the nobles and gentry of Xianbei, Zhao Junsheng vigorously promoted some officials from poor families and minor officials who were born in the common people during the tax collection process. Outstanding small officials, promoted them to officials, crossed the insurmountable gap from official to official, and these people naturally became Zhao Junsheng's die-hard fans.

After a few days, Yuyang Taishou and Zhenbei General Feng Da did not come to Ji County, but sent someone to send a letter saying that he was sick and not doing well, please forgive him and come to report on his work after he recovers.

After reading the letter, Zhao Junsheng's face became murderous, "Huh, why don't you pretend to be sick? The governor's government and military orders won't work in Yuyang. Is he going to separate the regime? Come, find Bai Jinguang!"

Soon after receiving the order, Bai Jinguang rushed to the Governor's Mansion, "General, are you looking for your subordinate?"

Zhao Junsheng handed a troop transfer talisman to Bai Jinguang, "I've given you a task. You return to the Youzhou Army Garrison area and a thousand cavalry quietly cross the border between Youzhou and the State of Yan, go to the territory of the State of Yan to plunder villages, attack towns, and destroy Vietnam The bigger the better, it’s going to annoy the country of Yan and make them unbearable to send troops to attack Yuyang!”

"Obey!" Bai Jinguang took the troop-dispatch tiger talisman, cupped his fists and turned to leave.

To be honest, Zhao Junsheng didn’t really want to use this method to deal with Feng Da. It’s not honorable to use external force to deal with his own people, but this Feng Da is not a Han, but a Xianbei general; and Feng Hong is now the king of Yan, Feng Hong

It's a Han, and using the Han to unite with the Han to deal with Feng Da, a Xianbei, made Zhao Junsheng feel no guilt in his heart.

"General, the imperial court sent an official document, ordering the general to build a baggage hoarding camp in Yuyang County, and a large amount of baggage will be transported over in a short time!" Dongfang Chen handed Zhao Junsheng a letter as he walked over. official documents.

Zhao Junsheng took the official document and opened it for a look. After reading it, he said to Dongfang Chen: "The official document requires Ben to keep his affairs secret. It seems that the imperial court is going to attack the country of Yan!"

"That must be the case. The subordinates speculate that it should be within this two months! The general has a lot of troops now. Excluding the 5000 cavalry brought by Gao Xu from Wuchuan Town, there are only 2 Xianbei cavalry. There are nearly 5000 Han soldiers and horses watching, and the subordinates are worried that the emperor will let the general take these soldiers and horses with the army to attack the country of Yan. The [-] Han soldiers can use at least [-] people, but they are all infantry. No, it must only be used to attack the city, and I'm afraid the loss will be huge!"

Zhao Junsheng said with a smile: "The general thinks that it is more appropriate to dismiss them on the surface, but actually get them to farm. What do you think?"

Dongfang Chen laughed loudly: "The general is wise!"

At this time, Li Bao walked in quickly and reported: "General, there is news from Pingcheng that General Hua has been dismissed by the emperor. At this time, General Hua is already on his way to Youzhou. According to the itinerary, they have already arrived at Feihuxing!"

"What? How could you be dismissed?" Zhao Junsheng was taken aback, and then his expression relaxed again, "It doesn't matter if you are dismissed, this general is going to various counties in Fanyang to inspect the implementation of the New Deal, and I will go to greet him by the way." Welcome Mulan. Mr. Dongfang, I will entrust you with the military and political affairs of the Governor's Mansion for the time being, and if there is anything to do, send a horse to report to me immediately!"

Chapter 464 Attack in the Mountains

Baked by the scorching sun, the trees and weeds on the mountains were weakly drooping their heads, and the calls of robins kept spreading in the mountains and forests.

At the end of the mountain road came the sound of horseshoes and bells. Hua Mulan and a group of soldiers were walking down the mountain on horseback. They set off in the morning and did not pass through Feihu Xing until noon. They did not stop when they passed the Flying Fox Xing Fort .

"It's too hot!" Hua Mulan's forehead was dripping with sweat, and she had to raise her arm and wipe the sweat with her sleeve.

Even the war horses couldn't stand the hot weather. Walking on the mountain path, they were panting heavily, and beads of sweat were dripping from under their hair.

"Miss, you are not in the army now, so you can take off your armor and pockets and put on your regular clothes. How can you stand the heat?" the maid persuaded quietly.

"Forget it, my brothers are all wearing armor and helmets. How can I just wear ordinary clothes for the sake of comfort? Besides, in the wilderness, if you encounter bandits, wearing armor and helmets will also provide protection!" Hua Mulan waved her hand. , stuck out his tongue and licked his chapped lips, picked up a water bag from the side of the horse's belly and took a sip.

Jing Xin couldn't help laughing and said: "Miss is really good at joking, look at the dozens of murderous big brothers behind you, they are all well-armed, which bandit dares to rob without opening his eyes? Isn't this courting death?"

At this moment, Hua Mulan said, "That's not necessarily true!"
