Chapter 578: What is the parent official?
Fang Jie looked at the two people surrounded by the circle with interest, with one hand on his lower jaw and his eyes slightly narrowed. The generals behind him were also standing there smiling and watching the show. However, the cold sweat on Yu Mao's body broke out from layer to layer. He didn't know if the General Fang, who still looked kind and calm, was really angry, or he just thought that those who made trouble were hateful and wanted to teach some lessons.
Yu Mao has been taking the people of the county to fight the bandits this year, and his heart has become much harder. But after all, he is a literati who has been studying for decades. Although he knows that these troublemakers are hateful, he has no intention of killing them. At this time, Fang Jie actually surrounded the troublemaker with Dou Tiande, and maybe he will be on the spot again in the next moment.
"Great...Great General..."
Yu Mao walked forward a few steps and said with a smile: "There are such troublemakers under the rule of humble power. It is because the law enforcement and education of humble power are not strict, but... it is just that the thief Dou Tiande is good at martial arts, so Song Er is naturally not his opponent. What if... it is killed by Dou Tiande, wouldn't it be unfair?"
"Unfortunate?"
Fang Jie looked at Yu Mao with his head in a slight smile and said, "His name is Song Er? I am just fulfilling his integrity. This person is willing to avenge the people of the entire Boyang County. His ambition is commendable, his courage is commendable, and his righteousness is commendable. Naturally, his integrity cannot be surrendered. I can't let him have the regret of being unlucky in the second half of his life. I think a man who is willing to stand up for the people should be very grateful to me."
At this time, Song Er in the circle had already been so scared that he had already weakened his legs. He was crawling out and was kicked back by the Black Flag Army soldiers. He knelt down and begged the soldiers to make way for the soldiers, but no one paid attention to him.
Seeing Dou Tiande coming with a knife, Song Er was so scared that he kowtowed to Fang Jie: "General, the villain knows his mistake... The villain will never dare to contradict the general anymore, please spare your life... The general, the villain will never dare to talk nonsense again. The villain is just a mistake without intention, not intentional. Please give me a chance to survive. The villain will never dare to forget the kindness of the general!"
Fang Jie waved his hand and said, "How can you do it? You encourage the people to rush into the military formation and ask the people to pick up stones to hit these bandits. From this point, I can see that you are the most passionate man, how can you be cowardly? In the past, you shouldn't be like this, right?"
"The villain really knew that he had made a mistake in the general, please spare your life."
Dou Tiande, who walked to him with a knife, suddenly inserted the knife to Song Er and stabbed into the land beside Song Er with a slight sound. He bent down and spat at Song Er who was so scared that he curled up in a ball and cursed: "Although I have done many evil things, I don't like a scum like you. I'm obviously as timid as a mouse and huddled behind others to make trouble, but I pretend to be righteous. A coward like you, I'm dirtying my hand to kill you, bah!"
He turned around and walked not far in front of Fang Jie and said, "I originally wanted to live, but after thinking about it all night, I realized that if the general wants to kill me and establish his authority, it is hard to save me even if I am a god. Since that's the case, it's better to come early than to come late, come!"
Fang Jie nodded and said, "I looked down on you when you knelt on the ground and begged yesterday. Now I am a little arrogant. Then I will fulfill you first. After killing you, I will take your body away and bury it, so that you will not be whipped or abused."
"Thank you!"
Dou Tiande untied his clutch and clasped his fists, then sat down cross-legged on the ground, stretched his neck forward and said, "Come on."
Fang Jie pointed at Song Er: "Taking this man over is opposite Dou Tiande. Since he wants to take revenge, I will give him a chance but he dare not take a knife. Then I will give him another chance and let him watch Dou Tiande die with his own eyes from the nearest place."
Two cavalry schools went up and grabbed an arm and carried Song Er over like a dead dog. They were only about one meter away from Dou Tiande.
Dou Tiande bent over and stretched his neck and smiled at Song Er: "After a while, my head will fall to the ground, and the blood in his neck will not be ruined. It will spray on your face, haha!"
A cavalryman stepped forward and sprayed a sip of wine on the horizontal knife, poured the remaining wine in the bowl into his mouth, then raised the horizontal knife high and slashed it downwards. The sharp knife cut in from the rear and cut out from the front, and the huge head fell down immediately. Then, blood at the broken neck, as thick as a bowl, was sprayed out like a waterfall. The slightly scalded blood sprayed Song Er's face. The ruffian fainted with a fright, and a stinky smell came from his pants.
Fang Jie pointed to several other people who were causing trouble and ordered: "Just take them to see this way, and none of the bandits left were cut off, so that they could see it from the beginning. This is the most disgusting people who watch life and death as a show. Killing is the crime of court laws and regulations, but these guys who drink human blood enjoy it. Don't you like to watch others bleed? Let you see enough today!"
Dozens of cavalry school like wolves and tigers rushed over and carried the necks of those people to the bandits. With the order of the generals in charge of the prison, more than a thousand heads were cut down one by one, and the few people were picked up. Seeing that they were chopped down one by one, no one could persevere for long before they could faint. The cavalry school people rushed to wake up with cold water and asked them to continue looking down. Thousands of blood were sprayed on them, and these people were so scared that they were gone.
Fang Jie looked at Yu Mao, whose face changed color and his legs were trembling, and snorted coldly, "Do you think I've done some more?"
"The officials...the officials are not..."
Before Yu Mao could finish his words, he couldn't help but vomited out.
Fang Jie said coldly: "If I don't remediate these troublemakers who take the lead in instigating trouble, they will do this in the future. Those people were encouraged to break through the obstacles of the soldiers under my command, and deliberately hit the soldiers when they threw stones, which was nothing more than to cause trouble. If I order to cut down all the people who injured the soldiers, who do you think are a pity and hateful?"
Yu Mao had a cold sweat on his forehead, and he didn't dare to speak or even look at Fang Jie's eyes.
...
...
There was a good killing outside Boyang County. More than a thousand bandit soldiers fell to the ground. Fang Jie did it on purpose, not only to establish his power, but he was afraid that the people in Boyang County would be afraid of what they were today when they mentioned today. Killing the bandit soldiers was to let the people see the position of the Black Flag Army, and teaching those thugs a lesson was to let the people know the majesty of the Black Flag Army.
It was not until noon that more than a thousand heads were cut off. One of the troublemakers was scared to death, and the other few were afraid that they would not even have the courage to walk at night in the future.
Fang Jie glanced at Yu Mao and asked calmly: "How many people are there in Boyang County?"
Yu Mao was stunned for a moment, wiped the sweat from his forehead and leaned over and replied: "Return to General, since Dou Tiande gathered to rebel, many people in the county have died, and many people have moved away because they are afraid of robbers. People who have no relatives from other counties can surrender to the county town, with a total of no less than 20,000 people."
Fang Jie said with a nod, "Is the food enough to eat?"
Yu Mao hesitated for a moment and replied truthfully: "The Xiaguan is guilty... Seeing that the people in the city have no food and clothing, they really couldn't bear to sit idly by and watch the people starve to death, so they opened the Guanjian to send grain privately. However, the county's official warehouse did not store much grain, which was barely enough to last for three months. Now the summer has passed, and the fields have no grains collected, so the Xiaguan still doesn't know how to deal with it."
Fang Jie said: "I will not ask about your private opening of the official warehouse. You will form a civil warfare to defend the county town to the death and have made great contributions to the people of Boyang. Even if there are some minor mistakes, they can be ignored. Later, I will send people to send seeds and distribute them according to population. If I plant them now, I can still harvest some coarse grains after the autumn, so that I can barely survive the winter. Then plant wheat, and the seeds will be distributed by my Black Flag Army. By the summer of next year, the food shortage will be alleviated."
"Tell the people of Boyang County that I am the general of the court. Since I lead troops to station on Huangyang Road, I will naturally benefit the people. After the summer grain is harvested next year, the people only need to return the borrowed seeds in full and no longer collect a cent of taxes and money. Not only are you, Boyang County, but also nearby counties. Since you are Boyang's parents, you must take more care of them. If the fugitive people come back, you must register and distribute grain according to households. If people from other counties come to Boyang to open up land and farm, they must also register and register together."
"Secretary..."
Yu Mao knelt down with a pounce: "The lower-ranking official will thank the general for helping him!"
"Get up"
Fang Jie said lightly: "You and I eat the salary of the court, but the people are the parents of food and clothing. I lead the troops just to protect one side, so I will not watch the people suffer and ignore them. In a short day, I will not leave Huangyang Road until all the bandits are eliminated. I am not familiar with local officials. You can write to the officials of the surrounding counties. If you want to be protected by my Black Flag Army, go to Zhuqueshan Camp to register and report, and I will treat it the same."
"Remember the matter!"
Yu Mao kowtowed a few times before standing up. He hesitated for a moment and asked, "General, do you want to launch troops against Xinyang?"
Fang Jie said: "I first arrived here. After the army rested for a while, naturally I will not tolerate the bandits in Nei Luo Ni in Xinyang City continuing to cause trouble. This is also what I want to warn you local officials. I know that you local officials have many contacts with Tianxin in Xinyang City and will also pay taxes in Xinyang. But from now on, if you let me know that you local officials are in contact with Luo Ni's troops, don't blame my army for being ruthless."
Yu Mao was so scared that he trembled: "Xiaoguan remembers... The general clearly observed, Xiaguan and Hotan Xin had some contacts, all for the sake of the people and did not want the people to suffer from war disasters."
"Because I know, I'm just a warning."
Fang Jie said: "If any thieves in the future are invading the people, they can directly send people to the Zhuque Mountain camp for help. If someone comes from Xinyang City, they will also send people to report it. I don't care about your past events because I know you have to. But now that my Black Flag Army has arrived, there are no more ghosts and monsters here!"
"The official... remember it in my heart!"
Yu Mao bowed his head.
Fang Jie was slowing down and said, "In the past few years, I know that your local officials have lived a hard life. They have done a lot of things for the people. They can't sleep at night and don't know how to eat, but this is what officials need to do. I ask you, it's said that local officials are parents' officials. Do you know what parents' officials mean?"
Yu Mao rubbed the sweat in his palm and replied carefully: "Officials should regard the people as their own children, and protect the people as if their parents love their children. They should not be biased or slack off. As the saying goes, love the people as their children, is the truth."
"You're wrong."
Fang Jie said lightly: "I have said just now that no matter how big the official you are, the people are your parents of food and clothing. The so-called parents and officials are not parents who are officials, but officials should treat the people as filial to their parents. It is not that you regard the people as your own, but that you should support them like your son and be filial to their parents. Love the people as your son... By the same token, this son does not refer to the people, but to yourself. Love the people as your son and respect their parents. Do you remember this sentence?"
Why did this general turn the other way around Yu Maoxin say this? But there is still some truth...
At this moment, a cavalry school came over and whispered in Fang Jie's ear: "General Chen sent someone to send the news, and some clues were found in Hukoujian."
