The Three Kingdoms: A vicious plan was offered, and Liu Bei was stunned!

Chapter 433: Luo Gongqi makes a move in chess, Liu Huan sends troops to Jingzhou
The old ministers of the Han Dynasty were like cattle and horses. They would not move unless they were whipped, and they could not be polite.

If you can use Luo Yuan, use it. If you can't, don't use it.

This was the opportunity Luo Yuan gave them. Whether they could seize it depended on their own wisdom.

If no one is willing to cooperate with him, then Fu Shou will be the new representative selected by Luo Yuan to represent the conservative forces of the Han Dynasty, and those old people can be abandoned.

After going south to Changsha, Luo Yuan needed a large number of grassroots officials. There was a serious shortage of talent in Jiangling at the moment, and the cost of training talent for the Military Commandery was still very high.

What Luo Yuan wanted was the talent pool of these conservative forces of the Han Dynasty.

Luo Yuan had long given up on this generation of old ministers, but their new generation could still be trained and reformed.

Fu Shou’s transformation is very good.

It is okay for these people to come out and do some simple things, which can also alleviate the serious shortage of talents in Jiangling.

After three to five years, when Jiangling's education system can provide talents, there will be no living environment for the gentry in the world.

After returning to the Military Commander's Mansion, Luo Yuan saw Liu Huan, whom he had not seen for a long time. Liu Huan had become darker and stronger.

The fair-skinned young man from a noble family now looks like a bandit.

After meeting Luo Yuan, Liu Huan asked, "I heard that the lord visited Fu Wan. What was the result?"

"Just like that," Luo Yuan said with a smile. The meeting with Fu Wan did not surprise Luo Yuan.

Liu Huan thought for a while and said, "Why don't I give them a lesson so that they know what Jiangling's advanced people are."

Luo Yuan laughed. What Liu Huan found most uncomfortable was attending classes. His class was very good. If you didn't obey him, you would be beaten. The local nobles in Jiangling were all shocked by him, the advanced person in Jiangling.

Luo Yuan waved his hand: "Don't scare them to death with your tricks. These old ministers and nobles are different from the local nobles. These people are well-known and have many connections with local nobles all over the world, but they don't have any ability. They can protect themselves but are not strong enough. They don't need your tricks."

Liu Huan felt it was a pity, as he thought he would have another opportunity to display his special talents.

"My lord, are you afraid of damaging your reputation?"

"Tsk, how can I care about my reputation? It's really a waste of your talent to use you to deal with them." Luo Yuan laughed and said, "Those people are not worth mentioning."

Liu Huan, Luo Yuan has other uses. Luo Yuan has a thousand ways to make those old ministers feel like they are in heaven or hell, but if he doesn't give them salaries, these people won't be able to do it.

Not to mention anything else.

These people are doomed to decline unless they change.

Liu Huan was originally the Minister of Health of Jiangling and was later transferred to Jingzhou to assist Shi Tao. Luo Yuan wanted to know the current situation in Jingzhou.

"Shi Tao sent a letter from Jingzhou, saying that many of the gentry in Jingzhou were resisting the great government in Jiangling, and that the land reform was not going smoothly?"

"There is such a thing." Liu Huan said softly: "Prefect Shi doesn't want me to use force."

Luo Yuan nodded. When Shi Tao arrived in Jingzhou, he had a hard time governing the place. He wanted to slowly lobby the Jingzhou gentry. As Jiangling became more and more powerful, it was very likely that the Jingzhou gentry would bow their heads.

This method is too slow!
Liu Huan naturally hopes for more violence, as Jiang Ling has proven that violent means are more effective.

Liu Huan said: "The emperor has come to Jiangling, and the nobles of Jingzhou are also ready to make a move. Those old officials also have connections with them, so the land issue will be even more difficult to handle!
This was what Luo Yuan wanted, so he called Liu Huan over: "The major policies of Jiangling will not change. The old ministers of Jiangling rely on their connections with the gentry in Jingzhou to fight against the Tongjun army." Jingzhou is close to Jiangling and it is a big city. There are many gentry in Jingzhou, and those people naturally have a good impression of the old ministers, and the two sides use each other.

The old ministers made trouble in Jiangling, which helped the Jingzhou gentry to contain Luo Yuan, so that the Jingzhou gentry had time to deal with Shi Tao.

Luo Yuan decided to teach those old officials a lesson. He looked at Liu Huan and said, "Choose a great clan in Jingzhou and destroy it."

Liu Huan hurriedly bowed his hands. He liked to do this kind of thing the most. Finally, Luo Yuan interfered in the affairs of Jingzhou: "The Deng and Liu families in Jingzhou are local big families. They have accumulated a lot of land and slaves. They are the ones who are most severe in opposing the land policy of the General Army. I have long wanted to report to the lord to deal with them. Now that they are destroyed, the land reform incident in Jingzhou can be resolved."

Liu Huan was worried about one thing. Shi Tao had some friendship with these two families, and he was afraid that he would not be able to bear it. "My Lord Shi Tao might be soft-hearted and let them go. Otherwise, transfer Shi Tao away from Jingzhou. Changsha is in need of officials, so let Shi Tao go to Changsha."

Luo Yuan smiled and said, "Shi Tao is not a fool. I am transferring him to Nan County at this time. He will definitely find out my purpose. Don't worry about him. I will order the Dragon Snake Army to cooperate with you to fight against the nobles and divide the land."

Liu Huan didn't say anything. It seemed that his lord had made up his mind, so he just had to carry it out. With the cooperation of the Dragon Snake Army, those nobles in Jingzhou would be just pieces of meat.

Liu Huan talked about the situation in Jingzhou again, and then said: "If the Deng and Liu clans are destroyed, the gentry in Jingzhou will definitely be shocked. We can let the disciples of other gentry come to Jiangling Academy to study as hostages. After a few years, these people will understand Jiangling's thoughts and perhaps they can be used by the lord. What do you think?"

The idea is good, but Luo Yuan will not force it. "They are not you, Liu Huan. You have your own consciousness. If the nobles of Jingzhou are willing to get close to us, we will naturally welcome them. If they are not willing, it doesn't matter. Why use hostages? As long as we have the support of the people, they can't turn the tables."

"My lord, the hostage method has been used since ancient times. Didn't Cao Cao use it too? Why don't you use it, my lord?"

"What's the point of not being on the same page with us?" Luo Yuan said, "The goal this time is to cut off the illusions of the old ministers and promote the land reform in Jingzhou. I am not Meng De!"

Liu Huan sighed that his lord was different from others and had a broader vision.

Liu Huan cupped his hands and said, "Then I will follow my lord's instructions and go back to Jingzhou to handle this matter?"

After Liu Huan finished speaking, Xiong Ying called a general over and said, "Lin Feiru, lead 5,000 Dragon Snake Infantry and obey Liu Huan's orders."

Lin Fei received the military order, nodded to Liu Huan, and immediately gathered the troops and went to Jingzhou with Liu Huan.

Jingzhou is not far from Jiangling. If you look at the modern map, Jiangling is just a county in Jingzhou. Liu Huan secretly went to Jingzhou with 5,000 troops.

After entering Jingzhou City, Liu Huan besieged the Liu and Deng families, and then announced the charges. The charges were just randomly picked, and after a formality, he arrested people directly, and killed those who refused to obey.

All the property of the two families was confiscated.

There's no need to waste time talking to those people. I've given them chances before, but they didn't seize them.

When Shi Tao heard some noise in the city, he thought the enemy had broken in, so he got up in the middle of the night to see what was going on. Only to find out that it was the army from Jiangling that had entered the city.

"Don't worry, sir. Everything is alright."

Shi Tao was stunned when he saw Liu Huan and his men walking into the prefectural mansion from outside.

"What's going on?" Shi Tao heard the voice outside that seemed to come from the Deng family, and he had a guess in his mind: "Is it the master's intention?"

"The Deng and Liu families have close ties with the old officials of the Han Dynasty in Jiangling. I am following the orders of my lord to confiscate their property. From today on, there will no longer be the Deng and Liu families in Jingzhou."

Liu Huan said it very easily, but Shi Tao still found it hard to accept. There were thousands of people in the two families, and they were all killed?
Shi Tao looked at Liu Huan and said, "Killing people like this is unjust and will definitely shock the nobles. Killing people is easy, but how can we explain it to them later?"
