"Bang, bang, bang!" There was a heavy knock on the door. It was obvious that the person knocking on the door was a little too eager.??
"Here we come." An unhappy reply came from the courtyard.
"Creak!" The guard guard looked along the crack of the door. He didn't see anything strange in the dark, so he slowly opened the front door, and a group of people poured in.
The guards from the Zhang family immediately rushed up to block the courtyard. The warning sound was sharp and urgent. A large number of guards poured out of the entire Zhang family courtyard to confront everyone who entered.
"Who are you, you dare to break into our Zhang family in Nanyang!" Seeing that the other party was just standing at the door, after the Zhang family's guards came, a person in charge immediately appeared to question the leader.
"Nanyang Zhang family, the former cavalry general, the former captain Zhang Wen?" The leader calmly looked at the group of defensive and powerful guards in front of him, without fear, looked at the people opposite and asked calmly
.
"Since you know about my Zhang family in Nanyang, you still dare to break in at night! Take them all down for me!" At this time, the head of the Zhang family in Nanyang had also come out, staring at the other person standing on the steps and said coldly.
In the Qin and Han Dynasties, let alone breaking into a big family's house at night, even if officials forced their way into people's homes at night and were killed by the people, they would be innocent. Naturally, the Zhang family was fully involved in legal and moral principles at this time, so they naturally had no choice but to face the people who broke into the family at night.
Fearless.
"Kill them all." Li You ordered with a calm expression.
Following Li You's order, a huge legion attack came directly from the outside, and then rain of arrows washed the ground. Everyone in the Zhang family in Nanyang did not understand what was happening, and saw a field of pure black cavalry coming towards them.
, directly ran over it, the outer walls and roof beams collapsed together, and it ran twice inside the house.
"See if anyone is still alive. Go up and make some repairs. Drag all the things away and let Wan Peng pour kerosene to burn this place to a white ground!" Li You took out the book and drew a picture on Zhang's house in Nanyang with a red pen.
circle, and then left with Hua Xiong and others.
"Kill all three hundred and seventy-one members of the Zhang family in Nanyang." Li You's butler soon checked the number of people and replied to Li You expressionlessly.
"Let's go and kill the next family, the three members of the Nanyang Deng family who have committed the most heinous crimes!" Li You turned around and led the army away. The firelight behind him was almost as bright as day, but at this time no one in Guangchang stopped him.
Maybe it's also because of Chen Xi's morality and Chen Xi's performance over the years. Although the major aristocratic families have been making small moves, they really never thought that Chen Xi would take action. In addition, they are now on their way north, even in a big city like Guangchang.
How can other courtyards compare with the detailed layout in my hometown?
Because Li You's approach of pulling out even the military soul army did not give these people the slightest way to survive. Cutting the grass and root out has been Li You's habit for many years.
"These are the powerful landlords from all over Chen County. There are a few of them." Jia Xu looked at the group of powerful landlords gathered by the governor of Chen County. These people have been working very hard recently. They have good reputations and bad reputations, but it doesn't matter.
.
"Yes, these are all the current landowners in Chen County." Chen Xin bowed to Jia Xu in awe and replied. He didn't know why he felt a great fear in the other party.
"Okay, so be it." Jia Xu didn't pay too much attention and immediately stepped out of the back hall. All the powerful landlords who were whispering in front of the hall shut up.
All the powerful landowners present looked at the middle-aged man who came out of Xian Chen County Sheriff, and couldn't help but shuddered in their hearts. The highest official they could see was Chen Xin, so when they saw Xian Xin Jia Xu
As soon as the other party steps out, he will know that the person above is coming.
This is what they have always wanted, but when it comes to this step, they are also a little scared.
Jia Xu's cold and ruthless eyes swept over everyone like a knife, and the atmosphere in the room suddenly became extremely tense.
"I think you should also know that Chen Jun's aristocratic family has moved away. Now you have two choices. One is to take your heart back, and the other is to move with them." After everyone became nervous, Jia Xu said after a while.
After a long pause, the atmosphere became extremely depressing and then he slowly spoke.
After finishing speaking, Jia Xu did not give any of the people present time to discuss, "Those who choose to move with the family can get up and sign the documents. Those who choose to stay, the government needs to recover one thousand acres of your land."
Immediately all the landowners on the field were in a panic, wouldn't this cost them their lives, but Jia Xu didn't care about this group of people at all, and everyone's noise ended very quickly as Jia Xu didn't speak.
.
"I suggest you choose to relocate." Jia Xu said coldly after everyone shut up, "Okay, that's all my suggestions. Give them what you have prepared."
After saying that, Jia Xu started writing the paperwork on the spot and left immediately. As he left, he said, "I'll give you a stick of incense to fill it out!"
After Jia Xu left, the group of powerful landlords went crazy on the spot after reading the documents. Some people waved their sleeves and wanted to leave immediately. After the first person left, most of the powerful landlords ran away, waiting for Jia Xu to come back.
At that time, there were only a dozen powerful landlords left in Chen County, who were still waiting.
Jia Xu didn't care about the others leaving. He collected the things filled in by the remaining dozen families and sent them away. When the heads of these dozen families left the city gate, they looked at the road as if they had not been cleaned up on purpose.
The corpse was dead, and the hair on the whole body stood on end.
Those who left were all killed here. On the day the army left Chen County, the families of these powerful landlords who were killed were also captured. Anyone who resisted was killed, even if there were powerful landlords who built Wu Fort.
It is difficult to defeat the regular army.
Jia Xu and Li You killed each other one by one. Li You killed the upper family and the whole clan was slaughtered. Jia Xu killed the lower family and the rebels were wiped out.
The two had a tacit understanding of cooperation and thorough preparations. Before the major families could react, Li You had already killed all the families who had committed the crime more than three times.
The family's move north is the most vulnerable time in itself. After leaving the homeland, there is no Uburg, no city-level defense, no carefully arranged escape routes, no complicated connections, and it is impossible to have as many people as before.
Free from outside.
When an entire clan is relocated, everyone will come back. No one will be left behind during the natural killing, and there will be no situation where a certain direct descendant is not at home.
"Li Ru, you will not die well!" After all, those people in Chang'an were not dead yet, so naturally some people still recognized Li Ru, but this is not important anymore, Li You brought all his close friends.
"Kill!" Li You ordered coldly, as if he didn't care at all about having his identity revealed. He had to die a good death. What a joke, he, Li You, was still afraid of this!
"Is this the last family?" Li You killed them easily, but he killed all these people in just over a month. Even if the major families were well-informed, they would not have received the news of how many families Li You had destroyed.
After all, this move was fast and accurate, and not much information was leaked at all.
Even if there were people nearby who quickly delivered the news, the major families did not share it. With the speed of the military spirit army and Li You's early arrangements to block the message transmission, even now the major families would never have thought that four of them had already
One of them fell under Li You's knife.
"Yes, Master." Li You's butler leaned forward and replied.
"Let's go, release the news now, let all the major families receive the news within five days, and then we will compile the household registration one by one!" Li You said with a sneer. He, Li Wenru, has been compiling the household registration for so many years.
It hasn't been compiled yet, isn't it because he can't intervene in these aristocratic families? But this time he came to ask for household registration, and the major aristocratic families were definitely frightened!
"Yes!" Li You's housekeeper immediately ordered the messenger to quickly lift the blockade of the news. The biggest advantage of Li You's household registration is this. It is easy for him to restrict certain people!
"Commander, if you do this, Military Counselor Jia will be passive. He must not be done yet." Wan Peng said with some hesitation. Li You wanted to kill more than forty families, but Jia Xu wanted to kill more than 40 families.
Too much.
"Don't worry, Wen He must have taken care of it." Li You glanced at Wan Peng. Wan Peng also felt a little chilly. This feeling was just like ten years ago. As expected, Li You has not changed from the beginning to the end.
However, for the sake of a target, you will never spare a hand if you deserve to be killed.
"Huh, it seems that the killing was a bit excessive." Jia Xu looked at the book in his hand and said with a slight headache, "But it's nothing, he has been killed."
"Time is a little tight. Now it's up to Wenru. I'm afraid the family will be speechless this time. Wenru is too well prepared, with moral and legal principles at hand, and the army is also ready."
Jia Xu sighed and said, in terms of ruthlessness, he and Li You are still a little bit behind. If the family doesn't bow their heads this time, Li You will dare to kill again!
The reason why he never took action before was that Chen Xi was soft-hearted and kept killing people. But if he keeps soft-hearted this time, he will definitely be in trouble in the future. In addition, Li You is absolutely sure to kill the whole family without leaving any future troubles!
Under such circumstances, how would a notoriously ruthless person like Li You choose? The routine of killing the whole family was laid down when Li You told Chen Xi in a smile that he would not kill indiscriminately.
While Jia Xu was sighing, Li You had led an army to surround the Hongnong Yang family. Five days had passed, and all the major families had accepted Li You's approach. This crazy approach made all the families panic, even
People from aristocratic families like Chen Xun are terrified.
"Li Wenru, what are you doing here!" Yang Hong ordered his family's nursing home to form a formation, and at the same time came out to negotiate with Li You. Of course, the Yang family, who still didn't know the reason yet, was already prepared to be completely wiped out, because
Before this, more than 40 families had been wiped out.
Even in broad daylight, being directly surrounded by the army, the Hongnong Yang family was in trouble. First, the main lineage Yang Biao committed suicide. Although a letter was sent back to explain the reason, the Hongnong Yang family, although they were very depressed, complied with the agreement and moved north. However,
Is this going to end now?
"The genealogy of the Yang family and the list of servants in the family belong to me!" Li You said directly. Ever since the Yang family signed the document, there has been no breach of contract. Naturally, it is impossible for Li You to destroy the other party, but such an opportunity would not fill the gap.
There is definitely something wrong with my household registration.
Yang Hongmu, but the situation is stronger than the people at this time. With Li You's order, the Yang family will be wiped out directly like the more than forty families before. Therefore, although Yang Hong is puzzled, he has nothing to say.
Take out the roster and give it to Li You.
"I respectfully send the Yang family to the north. The original 9,400 hectares of fertile land in the north will be in the name of the Yang family. I will give the Yang family another 600 hectares to calm the Yang family." Li You clasped his fists and saluted. He was already ready.
The land deed and map plan were given to Yang Hong, and then he led his troops to leave.
Yang Hong looked at the map and the land deed in his hand. He was a little confused and didn't understand what happened at all. But the whole family was fine and he got 600 hectares of land for nothing. What else could he be dissatisfied about? Can this god of plague be sent away?
Simply great.
Yang Hong had no idea that when this piece of information was delivered to Li You, the household registration that Li You had always wanted could really begin to be compiled. The Yang family's bow was just the beginning.
After that, the threats to Li You's family passed away. At this time, the aristocratic families who were already in chaos were immediately paralyzed when Li You's army surrounded them. Naturally, they took whatever they asked for and did not dare to take any action. The blood of the aristocratic families in front of them had not yet been dried!
Under such great terror and panic, almost all the aristocratic families did not react, so Li You asked for their genealogy and the list of private servants and private soldiers in the family. Then Li You directly gave a part of the subsidy and led the troops to leave without giving any money to these people.
The crowd was wary of any explanation.
"Hey, Li Wenru, don't go too far. You actually surrounded us with your army. What do you want to do?" After Li You surrounded the Zheng family in Xingyang, the Shen family in Shanyang, and the Deng family in Yingyin, Zheng Tai, Shen Wen, and Deng
Lun jumped right out.
The families of these three guys were not together, but because of the friendship they had during the revolution, and because the three guys were all sensible people, after that time, the three families got together and moved north.
We moved together, but now we are surrounded by Li You.
"Wenye, run quickly, I'll stop Li Wenru, this guy is going to kill the whole family!" Deng Lun looked like he wanted to take the throne and pushed Zheng Tai and Shen Wen back.
"I'm coming to the rear. You two should go quickly!" Shen Wenze pulled Deng Lun.
"Okay, you three hand over the family genealogy and the list of private slaves in the family." He said with a little helplessness. These three families have never done anything wrong. They are considered die-hard supporters. They have never committed any crimes and have not committed any crimes.
There was too much chaos, so they knew very well that no matter what happened to others, they would be fine, so there was nothing to be afraid of when they saw Li You.
The three of them were all startled, and all looked hesitant. This was basically equivalent to letting their family's foundation slip away, so the three people who were originally pretending were obviously silent.
"Don't think about it, no one can avoid this." Li Li looked at the three guys opposite and said expressionlessly.
"How much did you charge?" Zheng Tai asked after being silent for a while.
"Not counting you, there are only eleven families left." Li You said calmly. 8
