Great Wei Overlord

Chapter 720
Chapter 725

"What?" Ran Ming didn't know why an inexplicable fire rose in his heart, and suddenly he became impetuous, and he slammed the teacup in his hand, the tea splashed, the aroma wafted, and several scalds were scalded on his hands. blister.Ran Ming roared angrily without realizing it: "How could he die?"

Ai Ai stood up during Deng Huan's period, "Yeah, how could he die? Zhao Zhen was about to be killed. He didn't move a single knife, but he died. What is this?"

In fact, Zhao Zhen died.In ancient times, when you were an official, you always kept a bottom line and kept a line, so that you can meet each other in the future.

Therefore, under normal circumstances, political disagreements, although they are also life and death, but they all consciously maintain a bottom line, that is, the disaster will not hurt the family.The most serious thing is exile and distribution.

It is too rare for Ran Ming to kill everything.

When Zhao Zhen watched the head of his youngest son be cut off, Zhao Zhen began to feel boundless fear.

Zhao Zhen was gagged. The so-called gag is a tool to prevent prisoners from committing suicide. It is usually made of cork.

Zhao Zhen was tied up by Wuhuada at this time, and his mouth was also gagged. He couldn't speak, but he could only make a whining sound.

After the execution of all the direct males of the Zhao family, it was the turn of the female family members of the Zhao family.The first to be brought up was Zhao Zhen's wife and a daughter who had not left the court.

Although executioners do life-threatening jobs, they usually execute male prisoners, and there are very few female prisoners.Where did Mrs. Zhao Zhen and her daughter come from rich families, well-dressed, and beautiful?

"Bastard, how dare you!" It's a pity that Zhao Zhen couldn't speak, and the whining voice became even more urgent.

The range of motion was getting bigger and bigger, and he didn't even feel the iron chain embedded in his flesh.

The little official took advantage and was satisfied.

The executioner looked at the situation, and if he didn't take advantage of it, he was a bastard.

Then he also followed like a shadow and ravaged Zhao Zhen's daughter.

With the addition of the executioner and the dirty hands of the little official, Zhao Zhen's daughter fainted from anger.

Well, Zhao Zhen closed his eyes in pain, those eyes had already turned blood red.

The executioner saw that Zhao Zhen closed his eyes, and said: "His Royal Highness King Qin ordered Zhao Zhen to watch Shi Xing. If he doesn't open his eyes, it will be a violation of the order. You two, go and close his eyes." Get out!"

Zhao Zhen's wife and daughter cried together on the execution platform, "Wow!" Suddenly there was a muffled sound, and the corners of Zhao Zhen's mouth overflowed with blood, and his bloodshot eyeballs seemed to protrude.

Then Zhao Zhen turned his head and hung powerlessly on the torture frame. The surrounding criminals stretched out their hands to probe, and then exclaimed in shock: "Dead!"

Zhao Zhen actually died of anger on the rack, this result was beyond everyone's expectation.

Those powerful family heads and gentry who were watching the execution just started to feel angry at Ran Ming's ignorance of them.

But if they are angry, they have nothing to do. They can't be expected to fight Ran Ming, not to mention that the [-] troops are iron-blooded soldiers who have just wiped out hundreds of thousands of horses in the bald army. It can scare them to pee.

Man is a very strange animal.

Once angry, it will explode with unimaginable potential.

However, there was also an extreme, when they saw the tumbling heads, the blood flowing horizontally, especially the choking bloody smell that filled the air.

After a burst of inexplicable resentment, they actually began to fear.

Many powerful Patriarchs actually got their crotch wet. Fortunately, most of them have been exposed to rain, and they get wet when they get wet, and they can't see anything at all.However, the pungent smell of urine cannot be concealed from anyone no matter what.

However, this is not important anymore, what is important is that they remembered Ran Ming's ruthlessness.

In history, Qin Hui was also a firm anti-Japanese faction, but after being captured, he became a firm surrender faction.

Of course there is also the big traitor Wang Jingwei, everyone knows that Wang Jingwei is a big traitor, but they don't know that he used to be an anti-Qing warrior.

There is a fortress in people's hearts. If this fortress is broken, they will become slaves.

The execution of beheading continued, and even the ordinary people who shouted excitedly just now gradually calmed down.All kinds of intertwined voices on the execution ground gradually faded away.

Especially those members of the Zhao clan, after seeing the futility of begging for mercy, they also gave up their indifferent begging for mercy, and instead calmly died like fearless warriors.

"Your Highness, the execution is over!" Deng Huan said in a cold sweat.

Ran Ming waved his hand and said, "The body was buried on the spot, and someone cast a pig iron kneeling statue of Zhao Zhen, let him kneel here, and be spat upon."

The execution on this day also gave the Liangzhou Hexi tyrants a new understanding of Ran Ming.

Master, don't mess with it!

With his killing, more than 500 heads fell to the ground.

When he was angry, hundreds of thousands of people were bald, and there was not even a single hair left.

Those tyrants are also very knowledgeable, they didn't jump up and down, they connected with each other.Plotting something, but shutting the door at home, no one dared to talk about Zhao Zhen's murder in private.From the rebellion of the Bald Hair Department to the suppression of the rebellion, in the short period of more than ten days, too many people died.The land in Linze was stained red with blood.For the majority of the people, they are more concerned about how to restore their homes after the catastrophe.

Ran Ming's plan is to continue westward, to the Western Regions.However, the plan was delayed by the rain that seemed to never stop.

"Your Highness, I'm afraid we can't continue going west at this time!" Wang Meng said: "It's not only raining here, but the Heluo area is also torrentially raining. More than three hundred feet have been destroyed, and I am afraid that it will not be repaired in the near future, and the grain and grass will not be transported, and Hexi will not be able to support itself, and I am afraid that the westward expedition will have to be postponed!"

Ran Ming nodded without paying attention, and was suddenly taken aback.

"What did you say?"

"There was a sudden torrential rain in the Heluo area, and a section of the expressway from Luoyang to Gongxian was washed away by the torrential rain because the foundation was not solid, and there was a landslide of more than [-] feet!" Wang Meng said: "Don't worry about it, Your Highness. The party involved has been dealt with. Restrict it to rectify!"

"The heavy rain rushed across the highway?" Ran Ming asked again.

"Yes!" Wang Meng looked at Ran Ming's solemn expression, got up and took the map and said, "This is the place. There are many reasons for the collapse of the expressway. The first is that the expressway has to pass through a muddy mountain. A large amount of sand rushed down and crashed into the expressway. Most of the destroyed road sections were covered by the sand, and the expressway could be restored after clearing the sand. But the four small bridges were broken, so it was impossible pass!"

"My mother is here!" Ran Ming slapped his head and shouted, "Why didn't you say it earlier, this is going to be a big problem!"

"What happened?" Wang Meng asked in confusion.

"What's the big deal, what's the big deal!" Ran Ming said wildly out of breath, "The heavy rain can even destroy the highway, so can the embankment be kept?"

Ran Ming's heart seemed to have been severely slaughtered.God, you are so cruel.Can't you give me some way to survive?The development of Wei State has just entered the track, but it does not have the ability to bear risks and disasters.

Although the snowstorm did not have much impact on the Wei State, in order to prevent the Northern Han State from invading the whole country to the south, Ran Min moved the whole country's troops to the north as a whole.Although the battle was not fought, tens of thousands of troops were transferred from north to south, tens of thousands of civilians, and tens of millions of stones of grain and grass were consumed on the way of transportation.

The Yellow River is the cradle of Chinese civilization and the mother river of the Chinese nation, but this mother river often loses its temper.In the more than 2000 years before liberation, there were more than 500 recorded floods and disasters, of which there were as many as 26 major diversions.

The Yellow River initially entered the sea in the north of the Taihang Mountains, and later diverted to Lijin, Shandong to enter the sea.

Even the highways in Gongxian County were washed away. One can imagine how heavy the rainstorm will be.Can the embankment of the Yellow River withstand this fierce flood?

Every time the Yellow River flooded in history, which one was not filled with corpses, with hundreds of thousands of corpses?
Looking at Ran Ming's anxious expression, Wang Meng also realized the seriousness of the matter.Ran Ming was walking back and forth, thinking about countermeasures.If the Yellow River floods, it will bring catastrophe to the newly revived Central Plains and to the newly stabilized Wei State.

With the pissing nature of the people of the Jin Dynasty, it would be strange if the people of Wei did not take advantage of the flood of the Yellow River to take advantage of the opportunity of turmoil in the whole country and invade the north on a large scale.This is a war, a grand battle in which Ran's father and son will fight against the sky and humans.Once they lose, they will lose their country and their lives.

Ran Ming knew that Chiang Kai-shek ordered to blow up the Yellow River embankment at Huayuankou in order to delay the Japanese army's attack.All of a sudden, 66 counties in the four provinces of Jiangsu, Shandong, Henan, and Anhui were flooded, and more than 200 million people were affected, and millions of people were directly drowned. number.

Although the middle and lower reaches of the Yellow River in this era did not have the population density of later generations, the most prosperous and most populous place in Wei State happened to be in Qingzhou, which was located in the Yellow River flooding area.There are not only the industrial base of Wei State, but also a large number of factories. If Qingzhou is flooded, the biggest loss will be that of Ran Ming. More than half of Ran Ming's painstaking efforts since his rebirth in the past four years have been poured into Qingzhou.

Ran Ming knew the result of the flooding of the Yellow River. Ran Ming knew how disastrous the consequences were, and Wang Meng also knew it.After Zhao Shihu died of illness, the entire Central Plains has been in constant war. Since the establishment of the Wei Kingdom, it has been surrounded by powerful enemies and fought endlessly. How can it have the energy to repair the river course? What's more, in the past four years, the weather in the Central Plains has been smooth, making people temporarily forget the violent Yellow River. temper.

Ran Ming stomped his feet suddenly and shouted loudly: "Lin Heishan, assemble the troops for me. All the cavalry will gather immediately and set off in half an hour."

When Lin Heishan heard Ran Ming's berserk voice, he thought something was wrong again, and said excitedly, "Your Highness, where are we going to fight?"

"Tell the soldiers!" Ran Ming took a deep breath and said, "Everyone removes their armor, throws away guns, spears, shields, crossbows and other equipment, and only carries horizontal knives and self-defense weapons. Except for food and water, try not to bring extra things .”

"What kind of war is this?" Lin Heishan said in confusion: "Without a crossbow or a spear, how can we fight!"

"What nonsense!" Ran Ming yelled with a dark face, "If you are told to pass the order, you will pass the order, and if you dare to evade it, you will follow the military law!"

Wang Meng said: "Your Highness, this is inappropriate!"

"Yeah, it's not right!" Ran Ming sat heavily on the chair and sighed: "Gu also knows that without imperial edicts and orders, Gu's army can't step into Guanzhong, let alone one step away from Yecheng." Luoyang. A gentleman can do something and not do something. Mister, let Gu be self-willed once!"

"Your Highness is merciful!" Wang Meng said: "On behalf of the people of the world, I thank Your Highness for your compassion!"

As he spoke, Wang Meng knelt on the ground and kowtowed respectfully to Ran Ming.
