Chapter 45: Li Jue and Guo Si

"All the major families are pretty good, right?" Li Pu took a sip of wine.

"General, don't worry. Ever since the general invited the members of these families to watch the general's execution, these families have restrained their children to abide by the law and behave well." Xu You also sighed.

After Li Pu personally arrested dozens of children from aristocratic families who committed crimes by buying, selling, raping, and plundering, countless families came to Xu You to plead for mercy.

At Xu You's plea, Li Pu chose to give these people a chance.

As long as they can defeat Li Pu, they can be acquitted.

But what he didn't expect was that Li Pu actually distributed weapons to these criminal disciples, and also put forward a condition.

Xu You could only tell the various families about Li Pu's conditions, and the major families agreed in order to gain a chance of survival.

On the day of the execution, Li Pu invited people from various families to come to the military lieutenant colonel to watch. In order to show fairness, weapons and equipment could be provided by each family.

That day, more than fifty children from aristocratic families, all wearing armor and riding war horses, were waiting for Li Pu in the school grounds with confidence.

They all fantasized about being humiliated after defeating Li Pu, and then walking away handsome and unrestrained.

However, the soldiers on the field showed sympathy on their faces, and some soldiers even threw a leg of lamb to the dozens of children from aristocratic families, asking them to eat until they were full.

There were not only those who threw meat but also those who poured wine. These children of the aristocratic families thought that these soldiers were afraid of them and were very arrogant, and they looked down on these soldiers.

Some of the soldiers were provoked and almost took action, but were stopped by their comrades beside them, saying something about the last meal and forget it.

The children of these aristocratic families thought that they were bound to win. This was the last meal they had in Li Pu's military camp. They even said with a smile that when they left the military camp, they asked the soldier to find him. He invited the soldier to drink.

Flower wine.

Little did they know that the soldier looked at them with an even weirder look, like looking at a dead person.

After eating, Li Pu came belatedly with a big ax and a deer leg in his hand. He bit it and signaled them to start.

A man from a wealthy family had long disliked Li Pu. He just robbed some money, but these gangsters actually hanged him up and whipped him.

He straightened up his spear, slapped his horse on his hip, and charged towards Li Pu.

Although this man was guilty of many evil deeds, he had obviously practiced it and his riding skills were very good. The horse shot at Li Pu at high speed like an arrow off the string.

The spear in his hand was pointed at Li Pu, who was eating deer legs.

Li Pu turned slightly to avoid the shot, lifted the ax that was on the ground and used his feet to move the axe, slashing diagonally from bottom to top.

The moment the war horse crossed paths with Li Pu, the horse's head was cut off. Even after the horse's head was cut off, its strength remained unabated. The noble man riding on the horse was cut off in the middle.

The soldiers who were watching the battle had expressions of astonishment, the faces of the remaining aristocratic families turned pale, and the other members of the major families who came to watch the battle immediately vomited.

One of the white-haired old men shouted "Teng'er!" and then fainted.

After a big battle, the school grounds were covered in bloody and bloody limbs, and no one was left standing except Li Pu.

After this execution, all the families were very honest. They knew that Li Pu didn't care about their feelings at all, and if they dared to disobey the law, they would die.

Therefore, although there are many aristocratic families in Jizhou, there is not one who makes trouble.

"Okay, as long as everything is safe, how is Cao Cao's place?"

"After Cao Cao's father, Cao Song, learned that the Yanzhou Yellow Turbans had been put down, he took a car to go to his son Yanzhou Mu Cao Cao. Unexpectedly, he was killed by the soldiers of Xuzhou Mu Tao Qian. Cao Cao was heartbroken and was about to attack Xuzhou."

"Ah, his father is dead? Send a letter to Cao Cao, asking him to only kill the culprits and not to massacre innocent people, otherwise I will definitely send troops to Yanzhou." Li Pu remembered this.

After Cao Cao captured Xuzhou, he massacred the people in Xuzhou, killing hundreds of thousands of people in total. Even the chickens and dogs were not left. The Surabaya River in Xuzhou could not flow because there were so many corpses.

Although massacres and massacres were common in this era, Li Pu still couldn't accept it. As for the soldiers on the battlefield, Li Pu couldn't do anything to the innocent people.

Although Cao Cao's father died, this did not justify the massacre of hundreds of thousands of Xuzhou people.

"promise."

The banquet lasted for three days. On the first day, Li Pu had Han Fu, who was drunk, carried back to his mansion.

…………

"Let Zhang He and Zhang Fei send out troops to annex the state. The imperial edict has come down." Li Pu threw the edict aside casually.

Li Pu said he was writing to the court, but in fact he was just telling Li Jue. After being stabbed in the back by Ma Teng, Li Jue hated Ma Teng very much.

But Ma Teng had already fled back to his own territory in Liangzhou. No matter how much Li Jue hated him, he could not lead his troops to attack Liangzhou.

At this time, Han Fu said that he could help fight Ma Teng, how could Li Jue disagree?

Although Li Jue knew that Han Fu was unlikely to send troops to avenge him, it was enough that Han Fu would carry out the edict after issuing it.

To others, it seemed as if Han Fu was on their side.

And Han Fu is currently the most powerful prince, and the largest prince is still executing the edicts issued by the imperial court. When the time comes to issue other edicts in the name of the emperor, how can others dare to take the lead?

No matter how this is calculated, they will not be the ones who suffer.

So Li Jue quickly agreed and sent dozens of beauties, and I heard they were all from the palace.

One year has passed, and the world has become even more undercurrent.

Cao Cao was preparing to send troops to attack Xuzhou, and Li Pu was preparing to annex the state. Sun Ce, who worked under Yuan Shu, fought bloody battles in Lujiang for two years and finally broke through the city.

Liu Bei took Guan Yu all the way south and fled to Xuzhou. They were sent to Xiapi by Tao Qian's men to garrison.

Li Jue and Guo Si were even more unscrupulous. They also promoted themselves as generals of chariots and cavalry, opened a mansion, and led Sili Xiaowei. Jiejie, Marquis of Chiyang, Guo Si became the rear general, Meiyanghou, and Fan Chou became the right general.

Ten Thousand Years Hou.

Zhang Ji was granted the title of General Zhendong and Marquis of Pingyang, and was stationed in Hongnong. Jia Xu was named Zuofeng Yi.

Moreover, there was a great famine in the country this year. Because the army did not have enough food, Li Jue did not listen to Jia Xu's advice and robbed Emperor Xian of the money that was intended to be used for disaster relief.

Then Li, Guo, and Fan allowed their armies to plunder the people because their armies were still short of food, causing a more serious famine. More than a million people in Guanzhong starved to death and fled south, one after another to Liu Biao, Liu Yan, Zhang Lu or Jizhou.

's territory.

Guanzhong was almost completely destroyed by Li Jue, Guo Si and others, and Li Pu gained hundreds of thousands of people as a result.

There is not a single person left in the population, and the fields are littered with corpses of people starving to death.

Even so, Li Jue and others did not stop. Li Pu saw that the hungry people were almost skin and bones, and the baby in his hands was actually no bigger than a kitten.
