Chapter 177: Killing Chickens and Monkeys


In the afternoon, the sky was gray, and the army went out of the city.

There were indeed a lot of refugees at the gate of the city, they were ragged and unkempt, and even the buns said when they saw them: "It's so pitiful, even more pitiful than us real beggars." ” Because there were so many refugees at the gates of the city, some of them starved to death, and they were left unattended, so that within a few days there would be a plague among the refugees.

It's just that they also have more than enough heart, but not enough strength, and they are all almost hungry and have no strength.

I also heard that the army of Northern Xia will pass through here, anyway, if it continues like this, it will be a dead end sooner or later, so it is better to muster up the courage to face it bravely, so that all the gates of the city are blocked and the army of Northern Xia is not allowed to pass by, so that the generals of Northern Xia can ask for justice for them.

Ye Song rode a horse, walked at the front of the army, stood at the city gate, and watched countless refugees kneel outside the city gate and kowtow to her, begging her to administer justice for them.

Ye Song first ordered that the refugees who starved to death on the side of the road should be piled together and cremated and burned to prevent any diseases from spreading later.

Then the county and county guards of Sichuan City inevitably made things too big and ended badly, and he also expected that there were refugees blocking the road at the city gate, so he insisted on sending the army to the city gate, so he took the initiative to stand up, and said softly to Ye Song and accompanied him carefully: "General, in the southern war, it is inevitable that these refugees will flee to the north.

Now he is so bold that he dares to gather here to hinder the general's footsteps, please wait a moment, and when the lower officials go to expel these people and make way for the general. ” The county magistrate ordered the officers and soldiers he had brought with him to come forward and do something to the poor people, and among those people there were many men, and although they were now poor and famine, and they were so starved that they were almost skinned and bones, at least the tall men were still there.

They were also forced to have no choice, seeing that this was too unkind and unkind, and they wanted to be tough, so they had to fight back, otherwise there was only a dead end.

Once one man stands up, many men will stand up one after another, and if they do it, it will be a riot.

Seeing this, Na Taishou immediately felt a little weak-hearted, but in such a situation, he could only grit his teeth and let the officers and soldiers go up.

At the right time, Ye Song suddenly said in a loud voice: "Lord Taishou, don't be so troublesome, you can open the city gate now and let them in." ” "Ah" Taishou didn't react, he looked back at Ye Song, and a stiff smile appeared on his face, "What did the general say, the general must be joking with the subordinates, how can you let this" Only halfway through the words, Ye Song suddenly shouted at Tai Shou in a condensed voice: "I'll let you open the city gate now and let them all go in."

The refugees outside were all in an uproar, forgetting to cry for help, and looked up at Ye Song on the horse, as if looking at a god, their eyes were burning with great hope for life.

Taishou was frightened by Ye Song's sudden drinking, and his legs were almost weak, but he calmed down, and only listened to Ye Song and said: "Now Northern Xia is in the midst of war, and the soldiers are the first, but it is the people of Northern Xia who are suffering, and the people are the foundation of the country, and now they are displaced, and they are watching their relatives die, and you, as the parents of Northern Xia, ignore their life and death, who gave you such courage Moreover, the emperor has already issued an order, ordering all counties to appease the refugees who came to defect, open warehouses to help food, and reissue cold clothes, As a result, what have you done to leave them to their own devices, and you are not openly disobeying the Holy Decree."

Ye Song was too guarded to ask for a moment, and he was speechless for a moment, the key was that Ye Song deducted the hat of the crime he gave him was something he couldn't bear at all.

But he has been mixed in officialdom for many years, and he prepared a set of rhetoric long before the arrival of Ye Song or the imperial court, and he was full of contempt and disdain for Ye Song in his heart, thinking that her victory in Tamarin was just a fluke, and she must have the help of General Wei to achieve victory, and she was able to sit in this position, most of which may be because of the aura of the great general and General Wei.

In fact, she herself has no talent, so why should she point fingers.

So Taishou lowered his head, pretended to be respectful, and said earnestly: "The general misunderstood the lower officials, isn't the reason why the lower officials did this for the sake of the people, and the lower officials did not let them enter the city, because there were tens of thousands of people in the city of Sichuanzhou."

Once these refugees enter the city, everything in the city is in chaos, how can this not be a disaster for the people in the city?

He spoke in a subdued tone, and every sentence seemed to come from the bottom of his heart.

It almost makes people mistakenly think that he is a good parent official who thinks about the people.

However, Ye Song scolded: "Put your mother's bullshit, can you still say it more nicely, are they dirty and smelly in your eyes, they are not the people of Northern Xia, are they even more terrible than the soldiers of the enemy country, are they murderers and robbers who do all kinds of evil, they just need an eaves to shelter from the wind and rain, and they need some food and clothes to eat and dress warmly" "But there is not so much food and clothing in the city" "Then buckle it from the hands of those rich businessmen in the city who are so rich that they usually oppress the people, and from the hands of corrupt officials like you who secretly don't know how much oil and water the people have made."

"The general is angry" said in fear, "The lower officials are conscientious and conscientious for the people of Sichuanzhou, how can they ever fish for the people's oil and water, the lower officials are good officials with clean sleeves, please check the general" "Heh, is it", Ye Song sneered, "What's the matter with the beautiful lady in the golden house in the city, and getting very close to the rich businessmen in private, turning a blind eye and letting those unscrupulous profiteers raise prices" Taishou's face turned pale when he was asked, and he knew that he had underestimated Ye Song.

He originally thought that Ye Song was just leading the troops through Sichuanzhou, and had no intention of interfering in the affairs of the refugees in Sichuanzhou, as long as he said a few kind words, dispersed the refugees, and let the army get out of the city smoothly.

Unexpectedly, Ye Song actually investigated him privately, obviously prepared for trouble, and he couldn't get along with him.

In fact, as soon as Chen Mingguang passed Su Ruoqing's message, Ye Song sent someone to investigate this Taishou, just in case he died and did not admit it.

Without waiting for Taishou to say another word, Ye Song instructed a military general: "Come on, immediately bring someone to me to raid Lord Taishou's house, and scatter all the money to help these refugees."

As soon as these words came out, the military general immediately took the order and left, and there was a cheer outside the city, which was very happy.

Lord Taishou didn't expect Ye Song to be so direct, and his little county officers and soldiers were the opponents of Ye Song's tens of thousands of troops, even if Ye Song wanted to smash his pot and lift his tiles, he couldn't do anything.

He turned pale with fright, and sat down on the ground.

Facing the cheers of countless refugees outside the city, Ye Song took out his Xuantie whip and swept it on the city wall, with a loud "snap", sweeping up the gray stones, bursting.

Ye Song said to those refugees: "Open the city gate today and let you enter the city, open a warehouse to distribute food and clothing, but if you dare to disturb the order in the city and do something unruly, you will be like a stone on this wall."

The refugees knelt down in unison, repeatedly reassuring them that as long as they had food and clothing, they would keep to themselves.

Ye Songcai ordered: "Come on, open the city gate" The Sichuan Prefecture Taishou cried with a sad face, and said again and again: "General, don't do it, this is tantamount to luring the flood beast into the city."

Ye Song lowered his eyes and looked at the Taishou who was kneeling on the ground, his eyebrows were the same, and he said again: "Arrest him, remove him from his position, and detain him in prison to wait for the emperor's fate." ” When Na Taishou heard this, his eyes widened, and he looked at Ye Song in disbelief, and two soldiers had already stepped forward to escort him up.

He said: "Although you are a general, you have no authority to remove me, you are overstepping your authority and abusing your power," he said and struggled.

Ye Song turned to one side, took out a volume of bright yellow holy decrees, and said without changing his face: "Open your dog's eyes wide and see clearly, the emperor has sent the holy decree to me and ordered me to deal with this matter with full authority."

Take him down."

In the end, Taishou had nothing to say and was taken down by the soldiers.

In the past, the imperial court sent those ministers to the local government to deal with this matter, but the effect was not good.

There has never been a time when it has played a deterrent role like Ye Song.

That's because the officials in the court protect each other, and most of the local officials in the court have their own backers, and they have already passed the qi in advance before the ministers came.

Or if there is no ventilation in advance, Lord Qincha will also discuss this matter with the local Taishou in a friendly way, if he tears his face, it is not good to find a way out for the future, who knows if the other party's official fortunes will soar in the future.

As a result, the local Taishou is respectful and obedient on the surface, but secretly it is even more rampant.

This Sichuan Prefecture Taishou met Ye Song, and he was unlucky.

Ye Song was also the first to brush him and make an example of him, so that things would go much smoother.

Ye Song doesn't eat the officialdom at all, she will only achieve the desired goal in her own way.

Ye Song drove his horse to a stop at the city gate, and the soldiers also spread out on both sides of the street to make way for the refugees to enter the city.

She watched as the refugees poured in in an orderly manner, and slowly rolled up the decree and put it into her arms.

Seeing this, the corners of his mouth twitched wildly, and he said in a low voice: "Second Miss, please don't casually take out the holy decree and shine in front of everyone, so you are not afraid of being discovered by someone with a heart, and report the second miss for falsely transmitting the holy decree?"

Ye Song smiled lightly and said, "This holy decree is true.
