Three bloody, round heads hung above the city gate.
Just now.
The army led by Sima Yi prepared to enter the city.
Even after taking out Liu Bang's warrant, he still encountered obstacles.
In anger.
Sima Yi killed the chicken and waited for him.
Killed the former city lord, the former city lord's advisor, and the former city guard.
And now.
Black and White Wuchang even led the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry to start a purge operation.
"Don't arrest us. Why do you think so? We are not guilty. We are not guilty."
"Forgive me, I have money, my family has money."
"You are so bold, even the King of Han dare not touch me. My surname is Lu, but you should inquire about it!"
"I have done meritorious service for the great man, and I have shed blood for the great man..."
"..."
Sima Yi watched everyone's actions.
I actually felt a little unsure.
However, this Qi Tian insisted on doing this, and even talked about attacking local tyrants and dividing the land, making things he couldn't understand.
Allocating land to a group of untouchables?
Which country is not only supported by these noble families, is there really no problem in doing so?
Anyway, Sima Yi remained suspicious.
"Commander Sima, do you have many questions?"
"Your Excellency Qitian, you are the city lord now. Can you let me make the decision?"
"Just this once, listen to me and I will ensure that you gain a firm foothold in this city immediately."
"snort...."
"..."
After a while.
On top of the largest square in the city.
More than a hundred tycoons from the fish and meat village were executed on the guillotine.
to be honest.
Everyone was shocked.
It looks like a small city.
There are quite a few bullies and gentry.
Look at the people watching.
Perhaps because they were not familiar with the army that suddenly took over the city, not many people came.
"Your Excellency Qi Tian, only less than one-fifth of the people came. Is it really okay?"
"Don't worry, just come."
"..."
The time has come.
Hei Wuchang began to announce the crimes of these tycoons one by one.
What about bullying men and women, forcing girls into prostitution, and robbing fields...
Basically they are the same.
After all, rich bad guys all have similar hobbies.
"Is this going to be beheading? Some people dare to kill Mr. Zhao's head. What are the origins of these people?"
"I heard that he is the newly appointed city lord by the King of Han."
"Tsk tsk tsk, big men are like this now. This new city lord kills people as soon as he comes, and he kills all rich people. This is really going to end!"
"What are you going to do? Nonsense. Look at the ones above. Which one should not be killed?"
"..."
With the announcement of the crime.
Suddenly someone threw a rotten egg at the tycoon who was on trial.
Then there are rotten vegetable leaves.
Then there were cheers again.
The atmosphere was immediately heightened.
"Kill them!"
"Master Zhao's beasts, even teenage girls, should be killed!"
"The guy surnamed Lu is not a human being. He cut my balls off because he said their balls could cure diseases. What a pity, he finally got his comeuppance today."
"What? There is still this matter, brother, I will help you smash him."
"..."
For a time, the crowd was excited.
There are more and more common people, rotten eggs, rotten vegetable leaves, and big bricks.
The sky and the earth were overwhelmingly smashed towards the wealthy gentry.
Seeing that their mission was completed, the girls in the crowd quickly returned to Qitian's carriage.
"Your Excellency Qitian, they..."
"Oh, they broke the first egg. It's not a big deal. Let's see what happens next!"
"..."
"Poof! Poof! Poof!"
Beheadings have already begun.
There was a cry of mourning on the stage.
The people in the audience were extremely excited.
"Father, mother, Mr. Zhao, that bastard finally gave up and was killed. You can rest in peace."
"Hahahahahaha, my Xiaocui is free, free."
"Brother, don't be too happy. The new city lord probably kills people just for money and women. Your Xiaocui may have to warm someone's bed."
"Ah...this..."
"..."
In the blink of an eye.
The prisoners were all killed.
Then go to the next link.
Continue to announce the city lord's orders.
Seize all the property, fields, salt mines, and shops of these criminal tycoons, confiscate them all, and restore their freedom to all their slaves.
All the people in Yancheng can be allocated a piece of land or a part of their money.
Then the most important thing is tax relief.
…
Orders were issued one after another.
Sima Yi was stupid.
The people were also stupid.
"What the hell, the new city mainly distributes land to the people? Is it also tax-free?"
"Really or not, there is such a city lord like this?"
"That's what he said, if you don't give it a try, we won't have anything anyway."
"Let's go, let's go..."
"..."
Facing the temptation, someone finally went to register.
Because the land still needs to be measured, the land cannot be obtained immediately.
The first three people to register all chose money.
But when I actually got the money.
The three of them stared at each other.
Regret it.
"I really gave it to you. It's true. I knew I would have a field. It's my field..."
"Who knows if he can really give it to me? I'm just trying to see if I can get the money back."
"Don't be anxious, don't be anxious, isn't it the same as money being exchanged for fields?"
"Yes, yes..."
"..."
After having the first crab eater.
The people were all excited.
Rushing forward in a hurry.
"Everyone registers, I register, Zhang Ergou wants the fields."
"Everyone is waiting in line for me, everyone is there, not crowded, and if they don't follow the rules, they will be killed!"
A bloody knife is still a bit of a deterrent.
All the people went forward and lined up obediently.
"Remember, this is all given to you by the new city lord. As long as you work hard in the future, everyone can live a good life."
"Those who are sneaky, gangsters, bullies, and those in the fish and meat village, those heads are your role models!"
"In addition, City Lord Sima is currently recruiting soldiers. Soldiers will also have food, money, and a wife..."
"..."
Sima Yi was so shocked that he couldn't open his mouth from ear to ear.
Is this okay?
It's really good....
Only half a day.
His name, Sima Yi, resounded throughout Yancheng.
When did it become so crude to win people's hearts?
Kill people, divide things, tell them the name of the city lord, and that's it?
There is no need to win over this or that.
Because they needed to be won over, all of them were killed, more than a hundred heads...
"Your Excellency Qitian, after killing so many wealthy gentry and scholars, what should we do next to manage the city?"
"Does such a small and broken city need management? Just let them take care of themselves. You maintain public order, handle disputes, and take care of your own money and food."
"Is it that simple?"
"Well, I only know these, and I'm satisfied. I'll leave the rest to you."
"..."
