At Caishikou in Dengfeng County, hundreds of uniformed guards were lined up on both sides of the street, standing ready and alert.
A Taishi chair was placed in the middle of the street, and Lin Nuo sat on it with a leisurely expression.
On the side, the magistrate of Dengfeng County stood cautiously, with cold sweat constantly falling on his head, but Lin Nuo did not speak, and he did not dare to make any sound.
"Have the people been informed about it?" Lin Nuo suddenly asked as he looked at the people who were coming from all directions.
"Grand Governor, everyone who can be notified has been notified, and those who are willing to come are probably here!" The Dengfeng magistrate trembled and replied quickly.
Immediately afterwards, the county magistrate gritted his teeth, and then knelt down directly, with a look of pleading on his face, "Grand Governor, it's not that I don't want to annihilate the Songshan sect, but my strength is limited and I can't do it at all!"
Lin Nuo did not speak, but Zhou Yan on the side sneered: "Master County Magistrate, your Dengfeng County is incapable, why don't you go to the court and ask the court to send troops to suppress the bandits?"
"This sir doesn't know something. It's not that the lower officials don't want to do it, but it's because he is helpless. The roads leading to the outside world in Dengfeng County are all secretly guarded by the Songshan Sect. Almost all memorials issued by the county government will be inspected by Songshan Sect disciples.
.....The previous Dengfeng magistrates died under mysterious circumstances, and I really don’t have the guts to go directly with the Songshan Party!"
Lin Nuo still didn't speak, but waved to Fang Yun.
Fang Yun signaled and handed over a coupon.
It records some life stories of the magistrate of Dengfeng County during his several years in office, as well as some private matters.
"In the five years you have been an official, apart from supporting your brother-in-law to open a few shops in the county, you have not done anything too bad. If you are not too timid, you can be considered a good official!"
The secret folder handed over by Fang Yun recorded many things about Dengfeng County Magistrate, but most of them were small things. This person did not make any big political achievements, but he also did not raid and persecute the local people, except for some lustful people who liked to take concubines.
, but there’s not much wrong with it.
Hearing Lin Nuo's praise of him, Dengfeng Magistrate's palms covered with fine sweat finally relaxed slightly. Facing the current Jin Yiwei commander, even though he thought he had no bad record of corruption, he was really worried in his heart.
No idea. After all, if Jin Yiwei wants to mess with you, he still needs evidence?
"Fortunately, this commander is also a civil servant and is not as unruly as a military man. The elders agreed that he should serve as the commander of the Jinyi Guards, which is absolutely correct!"
The magistrate of Dengfeng said he was lucky. In his opinion, Lin Nuo was also a civil servant and had the ethics of a civil servant. He had no intention of launching a large-scale prison edict. Otherwise, if he faced a military commander today, he would definitely die.
Finished!
Those warriors, in order to maximize their achievements, would never pity their poor county magistrate. If they did not punish him for colluding with the Songshan sect to rebel, that would be considered magnanimous on their part!
"You are the local official, and this Songshan sect can be considered as the people under your rule. Come and read out their charges!"
Seeing that the people were almost here, Lin Nuo waved his hand, indicating that it would be up to him to read out the charges against Zuo Lengchan and others.
There was no way, there were so many crimes committed by those scumbags that Lin Nuo was too lazy to read them out one by one.
The magistrate of Dengfeng took the indictment handed over by Fang Yun with excitement on his face, and then read it out loud.
"Zuo Lengchan, the head of the Songshan Sect, is from Dengfeng County, Henan. During his time in charge of the Songshan Sect, he secretly opened nine casinos and 13 brothels, and seized more than 3,000 acres of land..."
"In the past thirteen years, he secretly killed three Dengfeng County magistrates and killed more than 200 ordinary people..."
"I have secretly robbed girls from good families many times for the sexual pleasure of the sect members, and as many as fifty people have been tortured to death. The crimes are too numerous to describe..."
.........
The magistrate of Dengfeng read out the charges against Zuo Lengchan and the Thirteen Taibao of Songshan for almost half an hour, and it was not until his mouth was dry that he finally finished reading them out.
As for the remaining Songshan Sect disciples, Lin Nuo waved his hand to indicate that he did not need to continue.
"Grand Governor!"
The magistrate of Dengfeng bowed and asked in a low voice what should be done next.
"Except for the Thirteen Songshan Taibao, all other Songshan Sect disciples must be killed!"
Swish! Swish! Swish!......
After Lin Nuo finished speaking, a bunch of embroidered spring knives were pulled out, and then hundreds of Songshan Sect disciples were pinned to the ground with their hands and feet tied with iron chains and their heads in shackles.
"cut!"
With an order, huge human heads were cut off one after another, and pillars of blood rose into the sky. At noon, when the sun was shining, even the people watching saw the sight of all the heads falling for the first time.
, I couldn't help but feel cold all over my body, and my hands and feet all over were weak.
The people swallowed secretly and looked at the headless corpses lying in a pool of blood. There was silence for a while, but then there was cheers that shook the entire county.
"Well done!"
"Well done!"
"Well done to these bastards!"
"The imperial envoy is mighty!"
"Long live the Imperial Envoy!"
Seeing that the public opinion was raging and people were shouting about anything, Lin Nuo stood up and raised his hand and pressed it down, indicating that everyone should be silent.
If it were in the past, even if Lin Nuo was a royal guard, these common people might not be able to fully obey his requests.
But now, Lin Nuo's army of three thousand Jinyi Guards entered the city and wiped out the Songshan Sect. Together with the hundreds of heads still rolling on the ground, Lin Nuo at this time represented supreme authority in the eyes of the people.
His words and gestures are more effective than the imperial edict!
"Zhixian Zhang, you are the county magistrate here. How do you think Zuo Lengchan and other bandit leaders should be dealt with?" Lin Nuo turned around and asked calmly.
"The Governor, I think it is too cheap to behead these thugs who have committed countless crimes. Why not... cut them into pieces?" the magistrate of Dengfeng asked tentatively.
"What a great idea!" Lin Nuo nodded with a smile and ordered to Fang Yun: "Except for Zuo Lengchan, everyone else will be divided into pieces!"
Dismembered by six horses?
Fang Yun was stunned at first, but considering that his governor once castrated the flower-picking thief Tian Boguang, he immediately understood and began to arrange for the cavalry to bring the war horses.
Countless people watched unblinkingly as the remaining Thirteen Taibao of Songshan were tied up with strong ropes on their limbs, necks and lower bodies, and then the ropes were tied to the war horses.
"Don't let them die too happily!" Lin Nuo spoke again.
Fang Yun nodded, muttered a few words in a low voice to the dozens of Jinyi Tiqi who were being executed, and then stood aside with a sneer on his face.
Later, the people of Dengfeng County saw the most harrowing scene in their lives, but they did not dare to recall it afterward.
In every open space, six war horses were seen walking slowly in their respective directions at a very slow speed. Whenever the executioner screamed in pain, these war horses would stop, then retreat backwards, and did not move.
Tear off the prisoner's limbs directly.
When the prisoner's screams subsided a little, the war horse moved forward again and continued the process until the prisoner's screams started to sound violently again.
This happened more than a dozen times, and when the prisoner's body finally couldn't bear the repeated pulling and was completely torn apart, this gruesome punishment of being quartered on six horses was finally over!
