Chapter 254: Respect for the Brahma Gate (Part 2)

In late October, the rain for several consecutive days finally stopped.

In the city that Yuzhou finally conquered, there were more and more pedestrians on the road. After half a month, officials from the Jinling court basically took over the entire Yuzhou.

This small court has already had quite mature experience in how to take over the new land.

The prefect and the county magistrate appointed the soldiers to patrol the counties and counties. Anyone who had any abnormal movements and killed them was not allowed. The Thirteenth Division responded immediately, led the way and captured and killed some families.

However, under such circumstances, there were still several large families and noble families. They had secretly escaped with their families before the Chu army captured these cities.

When the house is thrown away, all the fine and soft things that can be taken away, and all the valuable things that cannot be taken away are destroyed.

There are even some broken scenes in the empty houses.

However, there are only a few families who dare to take the risk of running away, and hundreds of families immediately fell into a catastrophe.

The Wei Palace built by Xu Wenhui in Yuyang, Yuzhou, became Wang Hongyi's palace.

In a small hall, Wang Hongyi sat on the throne and saw thousands of luck flowing towards Wang Hongyi. If he only practiced Taoism, he would be entangled by luck. At this time, the tripod stood on the top, which seemed not big, but it was slightly shaken and accepted the luck of half of the world.

The torrent of luck flows into the cauldron like the sea, but is transformed by slivery threads. Countless brilliant colors keep flashing in the cauldron, turning into purple air.

White, red, yellow, green, purple, and a total of five-color canopy, with countless silk threads hanging down layer by layer. These silk threads seem weak, but actually possess the power gathered by 26 million people under their rule. If ghosts and gods dare to invade, they will be crushed into pieces in an instant.

Speaking of which, after counting again, there were 20 million people south of the Yangtze River.

There are six million people in Yuzhou. If you get Xuzhou and seven million people, there will be 30 million people at that time.

At this moment, the ministers were reporting.

"The king, all counties and counties in Yuzhou have appointed officials, and they are basically in place. The food they want to collect is basically in place, but the food harvested this year has been used."

"The king, if you want peace, you need three years of grain in the grain warehouse. Once something happens, or a year of disaster, you can help the people and soldiers a year of grain. There is still one year of preparation. The food in the account is barely enough, but if something happens, what should I do?" An official from the Ministry of Revenue reported.

After hearing this, Wang Hongyi had no expression on his face and signaled to retreat, and asked the person below to continue talking.

"Originally, the Wei army had been incorporated. According to the rules, officers went to the martial arts hall to study. The soldiers were dispersed and entered the Gengzhu camp for training. Those who were over thirty years old were discharged and returned to the field... The specific number has not yet been released, but the Ministry of War estimates that there are 30,000 soldiers to stay."

Thirty thousand is not much. There are so many garrisons and soldiers in the entire Yuzhou, counties and counties. Wang Hongyi nodded and said, "The official position is to nourish the prosperity of households and prosper all industries. You are doing well."

Zhang Youzhi came out and said, "King, according to your will, the army and the Thirteen Divisions have cleared the entire Yuzhou. There are always sixty-one households and three thousand four hundred people, but seven of the first one are missing and have not been chased!"

The first of all these three points is to slander the government and the State of Chu, and the government will immediately punish the government, and the second is the former subordinate of the King of Wei, and they will be punished appropriately. Except for those who directly deal with the relationship, there will be no major consequences.

But the third point is that Wang Hongyi harshly stated: "Whenever you get a relationship with Hu people, you will transport food, grass and weapons to Hu people, once you find out, you will be immediately implicated and will be punished."

Wang Hongyi had already learned the news of escaping several families, and there was no joy or anger on Wang Hongyi's face.

The escape of these aristocratic families is not good news for Wang Hongyi.

Although Yuzhou is in the hands of the Chu army, Wang Hongyi knew that victory in the war is just an initial victory. He wanted to gain a foothold, stabilize the foundation, and prevent the current situation from turbulent. People's livelihood is very important.

The few aristocratic families who escaped were not large but held grain and cloth in their hands. This sudden withdrawal not only gave Wang Hongyi a warning, but also caused a heavy blow to the economy of Yuzhou.

However, in just a few days, the prices of grain on the market have risen a lot. This is not only affected by the withdrawal of the aristocratic families, but also because the grain and other items on the market have been secretly hoarded and the flow has decreased.

"It has been verified and there is no need for the Ministry of Justice to inquire. These sixty-one households are immediately killed. The grain money and land they have collected are returned to the national treasury. As for the food matter, what else do you do except these seven households?" Wang Hongyi asked.

"Your Majesty, I have found some clues, and I believe I will get the results in one or two days." Zhang Youzhi said.

"It's very good. Food is the most important thing for the people. Not only should we clean up grain merchants who dare to accumulate, but we should also seize the person behind the scenes and punish them with the king's law."

As he said that, a sound of footsteps came in from outside.

An official went to the hall.

"Your Majesty, I just got the news that the Zhang clan in the city had a strange movement in secret. He wanted to carry the clan out of the city, but was stopped by me. I have now locked it up and ordered my soldiers to trap Li Zhai... I also asked the king to make a decision!" After the official went into the hall, he turned over and bowed and said respectfully to Wang Hongyi, who was sitting at the seat.

"Zhang?" Wang Hongyi couldn't help but look at Zhang Youzhi beside him when he heard this.

Zhang Youzhi said: "King, Zhang is very suspicious about food. Now he wants to join his clan to leave the city, but he is afraid he has a ghost in his heart!"

"Yeah, it's possible." Wang Hongyi no longer concealed his dissatisfaction. He slapped the handrail and stood up, saying: "Aresist immediately and force him torture him. Be sure to find out the envoy!"

Yuzhou.Shangguan Mansion

Shangguan Hongzheng, the head of the Shangguan family generation, held a secret report in his hand, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

In front of Shangguan Hong, two thirty-year-old young men stood, who were Shangguan Hong's two sons, Shangguan Cheng and Shangguan Yi.

The Shangguan family is considered a big shot in Yuzhou. As early as the previous generations, they had a considerable influence in Yuzhou.

Although this generation did not stand out because of Shangguan Hong's prudence and caution, and had not produced many officials, the Shangguan family was able to occupy Yuzhou for hundreds of years, and even remain unaffected when dynasties changed, which is enough to show Shangguan Hong's talent and the strength of the Shangguan family.

"You see this secret report!"

Shangguan Hong said, handing the secret report to the two people in front of him.

The first one to take it was Shangguan Cheng.

Shangguan Cheng glanced at the secret report a few times, his face changed slightly, and the secret report was given to Shangguan Yi. The two brothers read the secret report and couldn't help but look at each other.

"Father, the head of the Zhang family is not such a stupid person, why did he end up at this point?" Shangguan Cheng said in confusion.

"Father, the Zhang family has always been low-key and shouldn't have done such a thing!" Shangguan Yi frowned and said, "Could it be that it was the King of Chu's plan..."

"No, no!" Shangguan Hong shook his head and smiled, saying, "The King of Chu is in his current status and will not do these small things."

"And you know very little on weekdays. Don't look at the Zhang family's low-key behavior on weekdays. In fact, they are in secretly connected to the north... The house was searched this time, and they were not wronged." Shangguan Hong said.

"Father, our Shangguan family has some in-law relationship with the Zhang family... When the King of Chu pursues it, my Shangguan family is afraid..." Shangguan Cheng said with some concern.

"Haha, it's okay!" At this moment, Shangguan Cheng laughed softly.

"How many families in Yuzhou have no in-laws? They are all based on hundreds of years. For example, adjacent trees are not of the same roots and branches and leaves... This is not serious. It is also the previous generation that the Zhang family has a relationship with my Shangguan family..."

"If Yuzhou needs to be pacified quickly, it still cannot lack the cooperation of local wealthy families and officials and gentry. The Shangguan family took this opportunity to express their attitude to the King of Chu, and there may be more opportunities..." Shangguan Hong narrowed his eyes slightly and said, "My Shangguan family is willing to sell grain at a fair price to show his sincerity."

Shangguan Hong saw it clearly that the Hu people had already reached Youbing, and Wang Hongyi entered Yuzhou. In order to quickly pacify, he had to unite the local wealthy families and officials and gentry, at least part of them.

Of course, some large families are looking for death, so there is nothing they can do.

Now there are wealthy families who are fleeing. The Shangguan family takes advantage of this to express their feelings and wish to serve the King of Chu and will receive a reward.

After all, the food that has been hoarded has caused the food prices in some cities in Yuzhou to rise sharply. If the food is transferred from abroad, it will be a bit slow.

Not only that, the big players are all connected with interests. He had long been determined to swallow the transactions of those companies. At this time, he took the initiative to propose a fair price for grain transactions and responded to the King of Chu. Maybe he could take the opportunity to swallow those stores!

Shangguan Cheng and Shangguan Yi have always followed his father's advice. Seeing that his father made such a decision, he no longer said anything.

"The King of Chu wants to kill Tonghu's family!" Three days later, an order was passed.

I saw soldiers and armored soldiers, and the ox cart from the Ministry of Justice tied up a large number of people to the entrance of Xilai City.

When autumn was a murderer, thousands of people were killed at once, which immediately caused a sensation in the city. People from all directions came over and surrounded the law grounds so they were airtight.

Because of killing thousands of people, the prison officer was very serious. Not only were there thousands of soldiers maintaining the court, but there were also designated locations for collecting corpses. The Thirteenth Division also secretly arranged surveillance.

The report said that the prisoner was taken to him, and the atmosphere immediately became tense.

I saw that all the men were escorted, and boys younger than seven years old could be avoided from dying. At this time, 1,200 of the 3,400 people were escorted, and they were all escorted.

Seeing that the criminal was arrested, the sound of drums rose up around him. At this time, there were crowds of people, and there was a buzzing noise of buzzing discussions.

"The time is here!" Because of killing thousands of people, time is very urgent. When the time comes, the prison officer shouted coldly.

If you kill thousands of people, if you use the traditional executioner, you will never be able to kill them for a day. At this time, the king approved the use of fire to kill people.

"Preparation!" The second team of two hundred fire commanders came out, held the fire commander high and advanced forward, and stopped in line on the flat ground, crossing, and fifty were still there.

"Take someone!"

A hundred men raised it up, some were already numb, some were like dead dogs, their trousers were wet, and they screamed and burst into tears.

"Preparation!" The second row of fire commanders put down and targeted these people.

"put!"

A deafening sound rang out, and a stream of smoke rose up. Suddenly, tens of thousands of people were immediately silent and staring at them. A large area of ​​people in front fell down, with only a few people standing.

"Repair the gun!" A deafening voice sounded again, and this time I was all killed.

"Check!" At this time, someone patrolled with a knife and found that he was not dead, so he immediately finished the knife.

"Take another person!"

"put!"

The continuous commands and shooting sounds came one after another, and the corpses in the field were piled up like mountains, blood and smoke filled the smoke. At this time, everyone was watching gradually silent, and many people vomited, their faces were all gone, and their feet were weak.

Whenever a hundred people were shot and killed, tens of thousands of people around them trembled violently, and they were immediately full of fear of Wang Hongyi's thundering methods.

The dragon energy that is invisible to the naked eye spreads.
