The three countries are very nuclear

Chapter 462 Human Scorpion

The Ling Chi at the gate of Qu County lasted for three full days.

Lin Chao kept his promise, so that tens of thousands of people were cut at least once, which can be regarded as allowing these corrupt officials to pay for their sins with their flesh and blood.

In fact, some officials couldn't bear it that night, and they cried out for people to give him a good time. However, instead of satisfying their grievances, Lin Changshi sent Zhang Xiu to cut off their tongues.

Originally knocked out full of teeth, and now they have lost their tongues, these people can no longer make a sound, they can only watch the people continue to cut flesh from their bodies.

However, when it lasted until the second day, some officials finally died one after another. Even though the doctor was nearby, their lives could not be saved.

Yes, they were tortured to death.

People can die, but the corpse will continue to be tortured.

As for the instigator, Shiren, he was kept in special care, and finally died after being cut more than 3000 knives.Because of the unprofessional methods of the common people, he was not able to receive the [-] knives alive.

In this regard, Lin Changshi expressed his disappointment and regret.

The second generation from Xuzhou watched the whole process, and couldn't stand it on the first day, but Lin Chaoyan ordered them to continue watching, as the most critical part of spiritual baptism.

Although the second generations vomited on the spot, Lin Chao didn't care, because the execution lasted for three days, and there was plenty of time for them to vomit before eating, and after eating, they vomited again.

And the scene in front of them will be deeply imprinted in their minds like a brand, and they will never forget it for life.

As for the final shape of Shi Ren and others...

Anyone who has eaten sheep and scorpions knows it in their hearts.

It is worth mentioning that in this appalling execution, there was still one person who managed to escape unharmed.

At the beginning of the execution, when only dozens of knives were cut, Tian Feng finally arrived with the food delivery brigade. The moment Tian Feng saw tens of thousands of refugees, Tian Feng couldn't hold back immediately, and his eyes burst out with unparalleled anger and anger. Horrified.

Helpless, Lin Chao can only temporarily stop the execution, and at the same time explain the whole story to Tian Feng.

After Tian Feng listened, he expressed his approval of Lin Chao's implementation of Ling Chi on the spot.

However, he has a different opinion on how to deal with Mi Fang.

First, Mi Fang has never been greedy for ink, and has no substantive crimes.Even if he didn't report the knowledge, he might be worried about revenge from his boss, Shiren, so death is not a crime.

Tian Feng This is a typical theory of causal inversion.

No matter how unbearable Mi Fang's character is, if he came in front of the county magistrate, he would still despise the relief money and food, so tens of thousands of people would not be affected by the disaster.

So, he doesn't deserve to die.

Second, Mi Fang is Mrs. Mi's elder brother and the lord's brother-in-law after all.Even if you are guilty, even if you deserve to die, even if you, Lin Changshi, are in charge of Xuzhou's administrative power, when you kill this person, you must at least say hello to the lord.

This is not only a matter of authority or not, but also a matter of etiquette between superiors and inferiors.

Otherwise, after this incident, even if the lord trusts you again, he will inevitably have murmurs in his heart.In the future, if your relatives do something illegal, even if the crime does not warrant death, will you, Lin Zichu, kill him as you did today when you need it?

As a result, there will inevitably be a gap between the monarch and his ministers.

Frankly speaking, what Tian Feng said made sense, and he was more concerned about Lin Chao than protecting Mi Fang.

Lin Chao was also a little bit dazed by anger before, but after hearing Tian Feng's words now, after thinking about it, there was some truth to it.

Right now, the goal of establishing prestige has been achieved, so whether Mi Fang dies or not is not very important.What's more, this person is really just like what Tian Feng said, the crime does not deserve death.

"Does Yuan Hao have a solution to this matter?" Lin Chao hesitated for a moment before asking.

Tian Feng smiled: "It's just a small person, why should you cause trouble because of him at the beginning of the year. Wouldn't it be nice if you let someone take it back and ask the lord to send it out for you personally!"

After all, Liu Bei's wife is involved, which is considered a family matter, why not just kick the ball back, and simply give Liu Bei a headache.

"So... that's fine."

Lin Chao nodded, and waved his hand to send someone to see if Mi Fang was dead. If he was not dead, he should be treated and let Tian Feng take him away.

"Yuan Hao, I will continue to go to other places to observe the people's situation in a few days, and you will have full power to deal with the aftermath of Qu County. When it is settled properly, you can go back to Tan County. After all, this is also your fault..."

Hearing this, Tian Feng blushed, and instead of arguing immediately as usual, he cupped his hands very solemnly and said:
"As ordered!"

"In addition, after you go back, add another article from the New Deal Ninth-Rank Official Personnel Law." Lin Chao said, "Any official who has been promoted by the Ninth-Rank Official Personnel Law, if there is a major fault, the master will sit down!"

"This……"

Tian Feng tried his best to digest the information contained in Lin Chao's words, and finally frowned and said, "It's okay to sit still, but how should we convict him? Or should he be punished for the same crime?"

Lin Chao had already thought about how to deal with it, and answered without hesitation: "Within five years, the same crime. For five to ten years, the punishment will be reduced by one level. From ten to 20 years, the punishment will be reduced by two levels. After 20 years, no more punishment." Sit even."

"So, it's reasonable."

Tian Feng nodded.

These words have been made very clear. In order to prevent the same tragedy as today, Lin Chao put another layer of shackles on the level of official selection.

The Nine Rank Official Personnel Law is the transitional official selection system established by the Lin Dynasty in order to win over aristocratic families.

Since I have entrusted you with the power to select officials, you must choose the ones for me and be responsible to the end.

If the situation in Qu County reappears today, whoever is the host will have to be dragged over to Lingchi together.

However, considering the complexity and fickleness of human nature, Lin Chao deliberately relaxed the age limit.

If the person you recommend to be an official has corrupted the law and neglected human life in the first five years, then you are guilty of the same crime.

Five years later, he died and you were exiled.

Ten years later, he died and you were imprisoned.

If you can be an official for 20 years without committing a crime that is enough to behead you, it proves that this person was reliable when you recommended him.Even if he committed a serious crime 20 years later, it has nothing to do with you.

In this way, it cannot be said that Lin Chao is targeting the aristocratic family.

After all, the Lianzao system had existed since the pre-Qin period, and later when the great magister Liu Xiu delegated the official selection system to the gentry, he played it again.

As long as there are established rules to follow, Lin Chao is just a refurbishment, and he is not afraid of causing opposition from the aristocratic family.

Four days later, the situation in Qu County has basically stabilized, and Lin Chao has nothing to worry about since Arita Feng sits here.

Facing the morning sun, Lin Chao set off again.

It's just that when he left the city, looking at the human scorpion hanging from the gate of the city, Lin Jianjun showed a trace of doubt in his eyes.

I don't know how long this deterrence can last?

Next to him, Chen Deng asked, "Chang Shi, where are we going next?"

Hearing this, Lin Chao smiled, and asked, "Yuanlong, Wenhe is not here now, you are in charge of the Tianfu, and you should know better than XX if there is any illegality."

"Chang Shi was joking. The lower officials dare not make a rash decision on this matter, and have to ask Chang Shi to make a decision."

"Well, tell me, what else is illegal in Shuntian Prefecture." Lin Chao said with a smile, "In addition, Shuntian Prefecture has to play its role in the matter of Qu County."

"What does Chang Shi mean by this?" Chen Deng was puzzled.

Lin Chao shook his head and sighed, with a hint of disappointment in his eyes.

The current Chen Deng is still too young after all.

Jia Wen and that guy can't do anything other than fishing all day long!

For example, teach Chen Deng or something.

Thinking about it, Lin Chao said, "I shouldn't have reminded you of this matter, but your time as Shuntian Mansion Prime Minister is still short, so I made an exception once."

"I would also like to ask the elder to show you." Chen Deng hastily cupped his hands.

To be honest, Chen Deng still doesn't know much about the functions of Shuntian Mansion.But the magistrate Jia Xu is an old mille-feuille, so naturally he wouldn't tell him the truth.

Anyway, you can understand it however you like. After all, when Lin Chao founded Shuntian Mansion, there were no clear regulations on functions.

But then, Chen Deng opened his eyes.

Taking the incident in Qu County as an example, Lin Chao gave him a screen window to wipe his ass—show his hand!
Most of them are dry goods, including how to spread this matter to all parts of Xuzhou, how to add fuel and vinegar, what should be spread to the common people, and what news should the officials hear. The scale must be grasped in detail.

All in all, four words, make the best use of the situation.

If done well, the incident in Qu County is a typical example, which can not only clear up the official atmosphere in Xuzhou, but also make the people's hearts exert their power.

Chen Deng is also a smart person. Although Lin Chao only pointed to the end, he was completely able to comprehend it by himself, and marveled at the magic of Lin Changshi's methods.

After the two chatted for a long time, Chen Dengcai finally remembered the next stop, and said, "Chang Shi, you can go to Guangling County or Taishan County."

During Lin Chao's trip to Quxian County, he took care of Shi Ren, who was considered Liu Bei's Yuan Cong's old department.

Although Shiren's crimes are indeed heinous, Chen Deng also understands Lin Chao's intentions.

After cleaning up Liu Bei's Yuan Cong's old department, it is self-evident who the next target will be.

Lin Chao thought for a while, and then said, "Guangling is not good, let's go to Mount Tai first."

"As ordered!"

……

In front of Bohai County, Zhao Yun is in the army.

Xun You has already begun to talk about his three strategies.

"The worst strategy is to send [-] elite soldiers to pretend to be merchants and enter the city in batches as internal responses. Right now, Chonghe City is unprepared, our army can make a surprise attack at night, and with the help of internal responses, we will be able to break through the city in one fell swoop without leaking the news. Then Send troops to Nanpi and surround it. Within two months, Nanpi can be broken and Bohai can be captured. This is the speed of soldiers!
"The middle strategy is to lead a large army to besiege the city, but not to attack. There are only 3000 people in total. The guard Han Meng will definitely send someone to ask for help from Nanpi. When Nanpi sends reinforcements, he will also ask for help from Yecheng Yuan Benchu. Then we will be able to To besiege the city and fight for reinforcements, first encircle and wipe out Yuan Xi's troops, and then turn around and attack Chonghe. Within a month, both cities will be conquered. Even if Yuan Benchu's reinforcements arrive at that time, we will be able to calmly deal with the enemy, and the outcome is yet to be known.
The best strategy is that the siege of the army overlaps, forcing Nanpi to rescue.When the Nanpi army came, our army retreated, and when the Nanpi army retreated, our army surrounded them.It doesn't matter if Nanpi doesn't come to rescue.There is a river in the west of Nanpi City, named Zhangshui.Now that the spring rains are continuing, the water in Zhangzhou will inevitably rise sharply. Five hundred elites can be sent to build encirclement and dig trenches upstream.This so-called war without bloodshed! "

To be honest, Xun You's three strategies are all feasible to a certain extent, and they don't conflict. They are really three excellent strategies.

The most important thing is that after Guo Jiagang told the specific number of defenders in the city, he immediately gave these three feasible strategies, saying that he would underestimate Xun You even if he said that he was quick-witted.

While everyone was amazed at Xun You's strategy, Zhao Yun, who had followed Lin Chao for a long time, was used to this pattern, and immediately decided: "Sir, the three strategies are all exquisite, and I think they are all feasible, so it's better to use them at the same time."

Sure enough, those who have been with Lin Chao for a while will learn to be more greedy.

Xun You thought for a while, then nodded and said, "Alright."

"it is good."

After Zhao Yun got Xun You's approval, he began to assign tasks: "Wenyuan, order you to besiege the city of coincidence with 6000 people!"

"As ordered!"

Zhang Liao responded with clasped fists.

"Botai, I order you to lead 500 people to pretend to be merchants, sneak into the city, and wait for the opportunity!"

"Obey!" Sun Kang clasped his fists in response.

Zhao Yun turned his attention to Zhang He again, and said with a smile: "General Zhang, I order you to lead 1000 people to Zhangshui to build dams, and when the time is right, break the dams and flood Nanpi!"

Although Zhang Yun intends to submit to Xuzhou, he is still a guest general at present, so Zhao Yun is also more polite in his words.

"As ordered!"

Zhang He didn't expect that Zhao Yun would assign such an important task to him, and immediately clasped his fists with excitement.

"This battle is the first battle to attack Jizhou, everyone should do their part!"

Zhao Yun showed the might of a general and declared.

Hearing this, everyone quickly stood up, cupped their hands and said, "Wei!"

It stands to reason that the meeting should have ended here, but there was one person who waited and waited, but did not wait for Zhao Yun's appointment, so he couldn't help feeling anxious.

"Zilong, where is XX, what should XX do!" Zhang Fei asked loudly.

Zhao Yun smiled and comforted him: "Don't worry about Yide, I know what you think in your heart, this battle will definitely let you make a big contribution, how about it?"

"Hey hey hey..."

Zhang Fei knew that Zhao Yun would not lie to him, so he went to imitate Lin Chao, walked over and patted Zhao Yun on the shoulder: "It's still Zilong, you are good to XX, don't worry, if XX does meritorious service, he will definitely take the biggest one I will give it to you. This is called drinking water without forgetting the well digger!"

Hearing the new words Zhang Fei learned from nowhere, Zhao Yun couldn't laugh or cry for a moment.

Of course, the sore shoulder has been protesting.

　That's all for today, the last day of the week, a little fishing.
