Chapter 116 The first wave
The first target of the Sui Dynasty army when they entered the world of Liaozhai was Yuanding City in Quzhou.
Naturally, there is no need to go into details about the process.
How could Yuanding City, which was only lightly armed, have any reason to be able to block the Sui army?
This siege took only half a day from start to finish.
After capturing the city, some people began to post notices everywhere in the city, reading aloud the rules of Qiu Bingwu and others, as well as the simplest rules in the law, such as murder for life.
Instead, it took two full days for this process to bear fruit. In other words, it took two full days for the Sui Dynasty's army to kill all the way around Yuanding City. They used their bloody heads to tell these people how to "keep yourself safe".
Write.
The power of plowing the courtyard and sweeping holes is as fast as lightning.
After that, although many people in the city were still confused and didn't know the difference between the army that captured the city and the previous government offices, they finally understood that killing people in the street, drawing swords and other things
, it is no longer possible to do it.
This is not free!
At first, many people thought so, and were prepared to use other people's blood to show their disapproval. But...
If you dare to draw a knife and cut someone else, someone will cut you immediately.
It doesn't necessarily mean cutting. The kind of weapon that makes an explosion from a long distance and then creates a hole in a person's body is much more shocking than a knife. It cannot be avoided, just like
It is the punishment of the legendary God of Thunder.
Compared with losing their own lives, there are still more people who are willing to lose the "freedom" to take the lives of others.
At this time, those capable bounty hunters finally got the chance to leave Yuanding City through various disguises.
They are going to report the news.
There is Shuihu Village to the east of Yuanding City, Dulongwu to the west, and across a mountain to the south is the Twelve Stars Cave. These are all free cottages, and their interests are closely related to the original Yuanding City Government Office. Now the masters in the city have been changed.
People, these copycats will definitely not sit idly by.
There is no other way to directly attack the city with a large group of bandits. In the hearts of these bounty hunters who went to report the news, they probably still thought that the leaders of these cottages would send people to negotiate with the people who now occupied the city.
They will collude again to obtain benefits, and then the unfree city will soon return to its original appearance, where it is convenient to obtain various benefits.
These people who went to report the news thought they were smart, so they almost all thought so. However, when they got to a position where they could see the situation in the village, they found that the facts were very different from what they expected.
At the same time, they also understood why the letters sent by the carrier pigeons and eagles before were not followed - because those copycats had been destroyed!
Traces of blood and flames still remained on the ruins of those cottages. There was no one inside the cottage, but it was not difficult to tell from the traces of blood and dragging on the ground that someone had roughly disposed of the bodies.
The person who came to report the news searched around relentlessly, but found no gold, silver, treasures, swords, guns, or armor. Of course, he also found no living person. Only the top few where the corpses were buried could be clearly seen.
The faces of those "heads" and "kings", and the marks on those corpses are many of the transparent holes in the front and back, left by that strange tubular divine crossbow.
Therefore, it goes without saying who destroyed these copycat villages.
And when these people who came out to report the news walked out in despair, there would always be a small group of Sui soldiers jumping out of nowhere to give these people a small "surprise".
At the same time that Yuanding City was captured, 200,000 Sui troops blocked twelve routes and captured the twelve surrounding cities within a few days. Using these twelve cities as the base point,
The divergence affected the surrounding areas, bringing one-third of the entire Quzhou territory under its control.
Then, the army's progress slowed down, and it was the civilian officials' turn to take action.
Zhuge Wolong and the officials assigned by the Sui Dynasty first temporarily put the government's functions into operation, and then, headed by Zhuge Wolong and Fu Tianchou, selected those available Da'an officials in the prison from the various intelligence collected.
, recruit local soldiers and horses.
There were millions of troops in the Sui Dynasty, but it was impossible to transfer them all to this world, and the lack of officials at all levels was even more difficult to make up for.
However, in fact, with the foundation of this 200,000-strong army, Zhuge Wolong had enough room to recruit the available people from the original Da'an government office.
This subjugation does not necessarily require their heartfelt surrender, nor does it expect these sinful guys to suddenly change their minds and turn back. It just selects a relatively less hopeless group of people and ensures that they will
Just work calmly under strong restrictions.
Then it will be like a snowball, driving the original talents of this world to gradually improve the new system. After that step, we will liquidate these guys who have committed crimes and meritorious services. Their punishments will be lightened or aggravated as appropriate.
Yes, thanks to the wonderful ingenuity of Shi Zhixuan and others, the death penalty is no longer the most serious punishment.
Not to mention those hand-splitting muscles and bones that were originally local characteristics of the Great Sui Dynasty, not to mention the method of channeling vital energy and pulses, the various new punishments that combined alchemy and ghost-immortal cultivation methods were truly terrifying.
The most typical one is to find someone who is relatively good at spiritual cultivation and let the criminal die ten or eight times in an illusion that is close to reality.
For example, through alchemy, the human body and metal machinery are mixed and refined together, allowing them to maintain a clear mind and feel the life of metal.
Yang Guang was noncommittal about the efforts they had made in punishment. As long as the supervision system passed the test and the good people were not punished unjustly, he thought it was natural to increase the punishment.
After all, the objects of humanitarianism must first be humane.
The reason why the twelve cities that have been captured and the various people in them can recognize the reality so quickly is also inseparable from some discretionary public executions.
Fear turns out to be the best weapon for sanctions.
It took about a month, until the various government offices were able to find a balance among the complicated relationships between people and maintain operations, and the Sui army began the next wave of campaigns.
