Liu Qin's face turned pale and his body began to tremble. He quickly looked at Liu Yi with pleading eyes.
Liu Yi was really loyal and said directly: "I am the mastermind of the rebellion. If you want to kill him, then kill me and let him go."
Zhao Hanzhang returned to his seat and sat down. He looked at them condescendingly and smiled softly and said: "Liu Yi, it's not the first day we met. You know me, but I know you better. If no one encourages you, the most you can think of is
If you want to escape, you won't think of mutiny and rebellion."
"However, whether you want to escape or rebel, it is a crime for me, so don't worry, you will all be punished."
Liu Yi promised not to do it again, and he was willing to sincerely surrender to Zhao Hanzhang, only asking her to spare Liu Qin's life.
Not to mention Liu Qin himself, Xuan Yuxiu and other Han officials were deeply moved. Seeing that Liu Yi was willing to make sacrifices for his subordinates, they couldn't help but burst into tears.
Zhao Hanzhang glanced at their moved faces and said expressionlessly: "If you are willing to surrender sincerely, I will naturally be happy. If it were in the past, I would definitely sell you this face, but not today."
Liu Yi was stunned, "Why?"
Zhao Hanzhang clicked on the letter on the table and said: "Your General Shi Le killed my general of the Jin Dynasty, so Liu Qin must die."
Zhao Hanzhang leaned forward, stared into Liu Qin's eyes and said, "General Liu should be happy to be buried with our general."
Liu Qin:……
Zhao Hanzhang said expressionlessly: "If you surrender sincerely, I will treat you sincerely. If you pretend to surrender to me, I am a kind-hearted person. If there is no big loss, I will be happy to turn a blind eye and treat you gently."
.But if you rebel against me and kill me, that would be bad."
Zhao Hanzhang raised his finger and waved, and his soldiers immediately stepped forward and dragged Liu Qin down.
Liu Qin turned pale and shouted quickly: "Zhao Hanzhang, I am a member of the clan. If you dare to kill me, I will not let you go when the Huns army comes back!"
Zhao Hanzhang sneered, and Fan Ying stood up and scolded Liu Qin, who was gradually being dragged away: "What kind of nonsense dares to call itself a clan in front of our governor? Our clan's surname is Sima. You are just pretending to be Liu. Do you really think that?"
Are you a descendant of the Han Dynasty?"
Zhao Hanzhang waited for her to finish scolding before coughing lightly, attracting everyone's attention, then stood up and said: "Everyone, let's go to the city gate to watch the execution."
Liu Yi's face turned pale, "Watching the execution?"
"Yes," Zhao Hanzhang walked up to him, stretched out his hand to help him up, and looked into his eyes and said word by word: "That fellow Shi Le hung the body of our general in front of the army. They were both rebels. I always
You have to pay him back a little bit."
After that, he grabbed Liu Yi and went out, and together they went to the city gate.
Liu Qin was pressed to the city tower by the soldiers, put on a rope and pushed down the city gate. Liu Yi and other Han officials who were escorted to the city gate exclaimed and saw the familiar Liu Qin hanging on the city gate.
Above them, bulging eyes stared at them, their feet kept kicking, and their hands randomly scratched the ropes around their necks, trying to untie them.
Zhao Hanzhang only glanced at it and then looked away to see the onlookers.
The Han officials who were watching were all fighting in two groups, but the people who were watching were watching with great interest and were not afraid at all.
Zhao Hanzhang looked around and sneered. It was strange. Except for Liu Yi, who was still a little white flower, among these ministers, who didn't have their hands covered in blood?
Among them, there are countless innocent people, including Xuan Yuxiu, who also has a dark history of condoning domestic slaves to enclose land, forcing good people to be slaves, and killing good people to seize land. These people do not change their expressions when they kill themselves or instruct others to kill people. At this time, with them,
When people with high status were killed, they became merciful.
Liu Yi's knees weakened and he fell to the ground next to Zhao Hanzhang's feet.
Seeing his closest elder hanging to death in front of him, Liu Yi couldn't accept it for a while.
Zhao Hanzhang did not force him to continue reading. The Xiongnu Liu family had enough perversions, and she had no intention of cultivating another one. Originally, this was not for him to see, but for Xuan Yuxiu and other Huns and Han officials to see.
So Zhao Hanzhang waved his hand, and someone immediately stepped forward to help Liu Yi down.
Others were not so lucky. They had to kneel in front of the city gate and look up for two hours before they could leave.
Xuan Yuxiu, one of the masterminds, returned to the mansion with a pale face and found out from among the rest the reason why Zhao Hanzhang was so angry.
News came from the Central Plains that Gou Xi had rebelled and was killed. Shi Le hung his body in front of the army and captured Xiayi County in one fell swoop. At the same time, he captured twelve forts. He heard that the army was approaching Chen County.
At first glance, the situation sounded favorable to them, but in fact, it was bad news for the captured Xuan Yuxiu and others.
Pingyang City had been captured for ten days. Zhao Hanzhang had no intention of leaving. Instead, he sent his army to continue advancing north and east. In these ten days, they captured 12 county towns and 57 docks.
Fort.
The attitude was not as peaceful as the other counties in Sizhou when they conquered it, but they were managed with iron-blooded methods. Some of the Wubao were obviously Han Chinese and had considerable power. His Majesty had to treat them with courtesy when he was there. As a result, she also defeated them all.
Order Wubao to obey her orders, and she will kill anyone who disobeys.
Obviously, Zhao Hanzhang had no intention of giving up Pingyang County and returning to support, and Shi Le had no intention of giving up the Yanzhou and Yuzhou areas he had already obtained and returning to support, so the interests had nothing to do with the captured people.
Even people like them had to bear the hurt and pressure Zhao Hanzhang received from outside.
My head hurts so much, it seems like no matter what, they are the ones who get hurt.
Xuan Yuxiu just sat down, but before he could burn all the messages he received, a group of Zhao soldiers broke in, and he quickly threw what he was holding into the brazier.
A Zhao Jiajun kicked the brazier away, then led his men to stamp out the fire, trampling on Xuan Yuxiu in the process.
The leading captain bent down and turned over the half-burned paper, and said expressionlessly: "Take him away and send him to a prison camp."
"yes!"
Those who were taken away together with Xuan Yuxiu were everyone involved in the rebellion.
Zhao Hanzhang said that if he wanted to punish them, he would punish them. If the hard work in the military camp was still not enough, he would be sent outside to dig ditches.
There is a drought this year, and I don’t know what the weather will be like next year and the year after that. She asked people to dig more wells and ditches. Even if she loses Pingyang City one day, the people here can still use these things.
Even the cute little Liu Yi was thrown into the army kitchen to chop wood and cook.
For two days, Xuan Yuxiu and others were driven so hard that they could hardly breathe. These people were pampered and could endure hardships in war, but no matter how hard it was, they had never done such hard work as digging wells and repairing canals. It had only been two days, and they
But it feels like two years have passed so long.
At this time, the petty official who supervised them finally relented and said that they could make meritorious deeds in exchange for their crimes. As for what kind of merit they would achieve, they would have to figure it out themselves.
Xuan Yuxiu gritted his teeth and refused to let go, but one day, when he was digging mud in a narrow and dark well, he couldn't breathe due to hunger and overwork, and he fainted in front of his eyes.
After he was put in a bamboo basket and dangled up to the well, looking at the bright and dazzling sky, Xuan Yuxiu suddenly thought about it, so he was willing to reveal his contact channel with Hanting.
