Liu Cheng watched Ding Yuan leave with Lu Bu.
Wang Shuang beside him asked: "General, where should we go back to the general's mansion?"
"No, go to Zhijinwu Yamen."
Liu Cheng said, taking the red rabbit horse from the soldiers, getting on the horse and rushing towards Zhijinwu Yamen.
Wang Shuang chased after him on horseback and asked: "General, there is almost nothing to do in Jinwu's Yamen.
Why are you going there?"
Liu Cheng asked while riding his horse: "How many people have been arrested by Zhijinwu Yamen in the past two days?"
"If you don't have one thousand, you might as well have eight hundred.
However, you ordered that some people who were drinking and causing trouble should be released.
Most of the rest are Xiliang troops who robbed homes, killed people, set fires, and raped people, as well as a small number of ruffians who took advantage of the situation."
The two of them took their guards to the Zhijinwu Yamen.
The officials of the Yamen came to visit them immediately after hearing the news.
Liu Cheng sat in the main seat in the lobby and asked: "Have all the people arrested in the past two days been registered?"
The boss stood up and saluted and said: "To tell you what the general said, too many people have been arrested in the past two days, and those who were not serious have been released.
They are too busy, and they have not registered yet, but it is very clear that they committed crimes, and the murderers are all Lock them together, those who set fires together, and those who commit treachery together.”
Liu Cheng waved his hand and said: "In that case, there is no need to register.
All these people will be executed.
No one will be spared.
Execute immediately."
The officials such as the boss and the clerk were shocked and said one after another: "General, this is against the rules.
Even though these people have committed serious crimes and deserve to be executed, they still have to go to court."
Liu Cheng slapped the desk and became furious: "In two days, so many people committed murder, arson, and committed all kinds of evil.
How can they be punished?
These are extraordinary times.
We should punish them with heavy penalties.
We should serve as a warning, especially if we don't kill decisively.
How can we deter them?"
"Those scoundrels, I ordered you two to be imprisoned.
I will execute them all in the cell.
If one of them escapes, I, the general, will use your heads to add up to the total.
Do you understand?"
Master Bo and Zhang were so frightened that they quickly knelt down: "Yes, yes" “Go quickly” "Yes," the two agreed, got up and walked out.
Liu Cheng raised his chin at Wang Shuang and said, "Go and watch.
If these two people bend the law for personal gain and let the prisoners go without permission, then they will be chopped into pieces."
The prison of Zhijinwu Yamen is nearby.
It is not dark yet, and screams can be heard from time to time in the prison.
The prisoners in the cells are tied up one by one and taken to the execution ground to stand in a row.
A row of soldiers stabbing them with spears After eating their stomachs, the next group of prisoners was quickly brought in, and another row of spears stabbed them over, and another group fell down, and so on.
Although the executions were carried out very quickly, it still took an entire night to execute these prisoners.
At dawn, Liu Cheng was sleeping in the back hall of Zhijinwu Yamen when he was woken up by Wang Shuang: "General, the boss and his subordinates have completed their imprisonment and have come to pay their orders."
Liu Cheng stood up with a yawn, put on his cloak and came to the front hall and sat down on the main seat.
"Greetings to your lord, I will wait until the prison sentence is over and come to pay the order to the general.
A total of 549 criminals were executed, including 508 Xiliang soldiers and 41 ruffians who took advantage of the situation."
"Where's the corpse?"
"Go back to the general, we're still on the execution ground and haven't had time to clean up."

Liu Cheng looked at Wang Shuang and saw him nodding, knowing that these two people were not cheating, so he waved his hands and said: "If you don't have time to deal with it, don't deal with it for the time being.
I ask you, the original Tiqi and Halberdiers are now locked up."
How many people are there in total?"
Zhu Bo glanced at Wang Shuang and replied: "They are all locked up in the barracks.
According to General Wang's instructions, they are only provided with one meal of gruel every day."
"Where is the roster?"
The boss immediately ran to get the roster and handed it to Liu Cheng.
Liu Cheng took the roster and said: "These people are working for the tiger.
Not only can they not help the court at the critical moment, but they can actually help the tyrants.
Logically speaking, they should all be beheaded, but I, the general, have the goodness of God to let them live.
But they They are no longer reliable, so I decided to disband them all.
Fortunately, the new chief Jinwu Dingyuan He will take office soon, and he will lead the Bingzhou Army to exercise the duties of cavalry and halberd bearers.
The soldiers of the Northern Army who maintain order in the market will leave after dawn.
You two have worked hard all night, so just rest in the squad room.
After daybreak, the new governor will come to take up his post.
At that time, the general will carry out official duties with him, and you must also be present at that time."
"Yes, I'll excuse you later."
The two agreed, saluted, and stood up to leave.
Liu Cheng stood up and took the Greedy Wolf Sword handed over by his own soldiers and hung it on his waist.
As he walked out, he said to Wang Shuang: "Go to the Tiqi and Halberdbearer barracks."
The two of them quickly rushed to the barracks with their soldiers.
When the Northern Army soldiers saw it, they immediately knelt down and said, "See you, General."
Liu Cheng stopped and asked: "Are those people making trouble?"
A Northern Army soldier said: "Back to General, those people only drink one bowl of porridge every day.
They are so hungry that their chests are pressed to their backs.
How can they still have the energy to cause trouble?
They have been sleeping in the barracks all day for the past two days.
It's okay."
I generally don’t go out and walk around.”
Liu Cheng nodded and walked into the barracks.
He came to the school field inside the barracks and stood astride with a knife in his left hand.
He said to Wang Shuang: "Blow the whistle to let them all gather and send troops to drive them away.
If anyone is dawdling, I will whip them with a whip." , beat them to pieces.”
"yes" The rapid whistle sounded quickly throughout the entire barracks.
The disarmed cavalrymen and halberdiers cursed and sluggishly walked out of the barracks one by one.
However, after a whip was whipped and a burst of howling ghosts, the speed of the assembly was obvious.
Speeded up.
After a cup of tea, thousands of Tiqi and halberd bearers finally stood crookedly on the school field.
"Quiet, if someone makes a loud noise, chop!"
Wang Shuang opened his throat and roared, and the school grounds fell silent.
Liu Cheng took two steps forward and shouted: "Let me introduce myself first.
I am Liu Cheng, the right general and the Marquis of Anyi.
I believe many of you know me.
Now listen to my order, and all the officials will come out.
Stand in three rows in front, in order of height from left to right."

After hearing the order, the officials stood up and stood in three rows in front.
Without saying anything, Liu Cheng raised his hand and waved forward, "killing" several rows of archers.
They fired arrows one after another, and bursts of screams were heard.
In the blink of an eye, all these officials were shot on the spot, and no one survived.
The remaining more than 900 Tiqi and Halberdiers were so frightened that they all trembled and shivered when they saw this scene.
Many of them were so frightened that they wet their pants.
Liu Cheng clapped his hands and said: "Okay, now that all the officials are dead, I, the general, can open the sky and speak openly to you.
You don't need to worry about being hijacked and retaliated by the officials.
Now, except for this general, I can control you." , no one else can control you anymore."
"You should have all been killed like these officials, but God has the virtue of good life, and I don't want to commit more killings.
The new king will come to take office after dawn and kill you all.
I, general I can’t bear to add so many more lonely ghosts, so I will show you a way to survive.
If anyone wants to die, please come forward.
I will keep you locked up here and hand you over to the new Kingo after dawn."
These people were so frightened that they knelt down and begged for mercy: "General, please be merciful.
We don't want to die.
Please let us live, General."
Liu Chengdao: "It seems that none of you want to die, that's good.
This general will show you a way to survive.
You people have been riding and holding halberds for many years, and you are very familiar with the streets and alleys in Luoyang City, and even You are well aware of every household in the area under your jurisdiction.
This general will ask you to still be responsible for your original jurisdiction, but not to patrol and detect theft as before. , but hide their identity to inquire about the news on the street and each household.
The former team leader died, and now the oldest person in the team is temporarily in charge.
The news that everyone inquires about every day is reported to The oldest person in the team reported, and this person then sorted out the information clearly, and then reported it to the Wang Duwei next to the general.

After the inspection, they can be appointed as officers.
So, from now on, all of you have the opportunity All are equal.
This general will not appoint anyone else to be an official among you.
All officials will come from among you.
If you We want to be officials, want to be promoted and make a fortune.
This is your most likely chance to succeed.
Don’t think about escaping.
Your roster is in the hands of this general.

If you escape, your family will be the first to suffer, so don’t take any chances.
After a month, you will be rewarded based on your merits, promoted and paid.”
"Announce a discipline.
What I just said, the general, you are not allowed to reveal even a word to anyone, including your closest relatives.
If you find someone leaking the news, the three tribes will be killed."
"From now on, you are no longer the cavalry and halberd bearers of the Jinwu Yamen.
You have a new identity.
You are the spies of the secret camp":
