The wall fell down and everyone pushed it, and the drums were broken and people beat it. Now that Cao Zhi is out of power, there are not a few people who want to step on it, especially the one who sits in Xuchang. I am afraid that he has already sharpened his sword. , Cao Zhi must die without a doubt, he cannot be killed openly, he must be assassinated!

Cao Zhi's family members were also brought down, and someone was sent to take care of them properly. Women and children are innocent, so why bother to get involved, let alone the little fellows, they all want to call Xiao Yi uncle!

"My lord, Sima, it's clear that the villains don't have the heart to rebel, they were all brought in by coercion!"

"Lord Da Sima, please be kind, spare the life of the little people, and the generations will always be grateful for your great kindness!"

…………

Seeing that Cao Zhi's family passed the test easily, the captured officials, patriarchs, and tyrants also cheered up and shouted one after another, thinking that they also had the hope of being exonerated.

As the saying goes, the law does not blame the public, if one person makes a mistake, he must be punished, and if 1 people make mistakes, then the big things can only be reduced to the small ones!

After the Battle of Guandu, Cao Cao seized many letters, all of which were secretly colluded with Yuan Shao by court officials. Some people suggested, "Check the names one by one, collect them and kill them!" '

What was the result, Cao Cao burned all the letters on fire, one was not caught, the other was not killed, and he called it: "When Shao is strong, even Gu can't protect himself, let alone others?" '

It's not that the traitor doesn't want to kill these traitors, but that there are too many people involved, all over the court and the field. If there is a massacre, the court may collapse, and after a big war, there is an urgent need to stabilize people's hearts!

It's the same now, Cao Cao has just passed away, and people in the Central Plains are in turmoil. At this time, we should focus on appeasement, and dare not lighten the killing. What's more, the hundreds of people captured are all famous figures in Qingzhou and Jizhou. How deep!

Therefore, the prisoners guessed that their lives must have been saved, and they might be able to forget the past and return to their posts. They all suddenly gained confidence and straightened their backs a lot!

It's a pity that they all guessed wrong. Cao Cao and Xiao Yi seem to be the same kind of people, but in fact they are completely different. The former uses power to seek the world, while the latter wins the hearts of the people by killing. The more you kill, the more people will be convinced!

Chapter 1616 The big fish who has thrown himself into the net!

"Swipe!--Swipe!"

The mad dog kept barking when he saw people, and the hungry wolf allowed the blood silently. Xiao Yi belonged to the latter. , screams one after another!

Before the rest of the people could react, Xiao Yi waved his hand lightly again, and more than a hundred heads fell to the ground. Corpses piled up on the execution ground, heads rolled, and blood flowed down the wooden platform, gathering in the low-lying places Became a brook.

"Master Da Sima, please forgive me, please forgive me--dongdong!"

"The little ones are willing to contribute all their property and make meritorious deeds. I just ask you to give me a way to survive!"

……

The two bloody killings made the remaining captives understand that what they are facing now is not the merciful Buddha, but a black-bellied and ruthless killing god who slaughtered millions—a million is not an imaginary number!

Immediately, they were so frightened that they collapsed to the ground, some of their trousers were damp, they kowtowed like a chicken eating broken rice, the voices of begging for forgiveness kept coming and going, just asking for one's life was enough, and they dared not think anything wrong again.

"Before the king's bones were cold, you took the prince hostage, raised troops to rebel against the imperial court, plundered the city, and endangered the country. It should have been cut into pieces and wiped out the whole family!

However, God has the virtue of good life, and I, Da Sima, also have a "compassionate heart". I don't want to do more killings, so I will give you a chance to survive. I hope you will cherish it!

This rebellion involves a lot of things. Although the rebel army has been wiped out, there are still remnants who have not been caught, either lurking among the people, or fleeing to the mountains, and sooner or later they will endanger the country and the country!

If you participate in the rebellion, you must know the details. For those who have not been arrested, you will be exempted from death if you report five people, and you will be exempted from crime if you report ten people.

Conversely, if there are less than ten people who report, if one person is missing, one hand will be cut off, and if one person is missing, one leg will be cut off again, until all four are long and one short, and they are all cut off. From now on, they can only stay in the jar. Who - beheading, exterminating family, digging up ancestral graves! "

Killing is just a means, countering the rebellion is the purpose. To be more precise, Xiao Yi wants to take advantage of this counter-rebellion to clean up the gentry group, and then deter the whole world!

Cao Cao passed away, and people were in panic. The gentry group, which had been suppressed for a long time, wanted to take the opportunity to regain power. This Qingzhou rebellion is a sign. Otherwise, with Cao Zhi's strength, how to pull up a team of 10,000+ people all at once, is not yet Qingzhou. Do the gentry of Jizhou and Jizhou support it behind their backs!

A single spark can start a prairie fire. If the rebellion is not killed in the bud, it will be difficult to deal with it in the future. Therefore, Xiao Yi went on a killing spree, and he did not hesitate to drown this spark with a sea of ​​blood, and let the gentry group know that the world today Who decides!

"The villain is willing to take the crime and make meritorious service, and report the remnants of treason!"

"The villain is in charge of the military books, and knows many rebellious names!"

"The villain also knows that the villain has to survive!"

.........

"Very good, those who know current affairs are Junjie, take them down for detailed interrogation!"

There is no shortage of soft bones in human beings. Under the pressure of killing, some prisoners soon ran out and confessed to the list of their accomplices. The rest followed suit, and none of them would rather die than surrender!

This is not surprising, as long as these people have a bit of loyalty, they will not follow Cao Zhi and Yang Xiu to rebel.

According to Xiao Yi's order, the soldiers separated these people, and each person was given a pen, ink, paper and inkstone to write down the names and backgrounds of the remnants, so that collusion of confessions could be prevented, and the problem could be better explained, betrayal in person, Private betrayal, but two completely different feelings!

Of course, the remnants cannot be randomly identified. They must be people with status and status, or have directly participated in the rebellion, or funded the rebels' supplies, or secretly communicated with the rebels for the song and passed the news!

If the list of remnants is confessed, someone must be sent to verify it. It must be really a rebellion, or Xiao Yi thinks it is a 'rebellion'. Whoever dares to fool with a false name, or bites anyone who bites at random, will not be spared!

After the remnants were caught, they also faced two choices: either their heads fell to the ground, or they confessed to their accomplices. In this way, one leads ten, ten leads a hundred, and a hundred leads a thousand... The number of people quickly increased like a snowball.

At the beginning, the confessions were all rebel accomplices, but with the development of the situation, the number of people was obviously not enough. In order to save their own lives, hands and feet, the captives could only "create" accomplices, and the conditions were very strict. Simple, is to see who is not pleasing to the eye!

Those who have a personal enmity with themselves - the rebel party!

Those who owed themselves money and did not pay back - the rebel party!

Those who like the same woman and have never fought for them - the same party of rebellion!

……

Killing people for the crime of treason is the most upright thing. In the days that followed, Xiao Yi led his army to sweep Qingzhou and Jizhou, arresting the remnants of the rebels everywhere, destroying many families and beheading them every day. Hundreds of people were dragged out one by one with broken hands and feet.

Although there were many killings, Xiao Yi also had principles. No one was killed by ordinary people, and no one from the noble family was kept. The confiscated land, livestock, and money were all distributed to the poor, so the people of the two states cheered and praised endlessly!

………………

There are no surprises in the world, just when Xiao Yi held up the butcher knife, killing people's heads rolling and blood flowing like rivers, the soldiers under the tent suddenly came to report that a repeat offender had surrendered himself.

"Who came forward to surrender?"

"The person here calls himself Mr. Taiqing, and his appearance is also consistent with the portrait!"

"Hehe, this person is interesting, and he has thrown himself into a trap. I should see him!"

A few years ago, 'Trichogramma' discovered through investigation that there was a mysterious counselor beside Cao Zhi who called himself 'Mr. Taiqing'. He had an unknown origin and an ugly appearance. He wore an iron mask all the year round and kept away from outsiders!

The captives also confessed that this Qingzhou rebellion was planned by Mr. Taiqing alone, and he also planned a lot of tricks for Cao Zhi. If it can be implemented, the world will be in chaos!

Therefore, Xiao Yi issued an order that anyone who can capture or kill Mr. Taiqing alive and offer it to the front of the account will be rewarded with three thousand gold, promoted to two ranks, and awarded honors by the people!

Those who provide useful clues will also be rewarded with a hundred gold, or a hundred acres of fertile land!

When the news came out, Qing and Ji prefectures were all shaken. The garrison, yamen servants, and postmen were mobilized to block the city gates, checkpoints, and ferries. According to the wanted portraits posted above, they strictly searched the passing pedestrians, trying to catch this slipping net. fish!

The common people also take advantage of the slack time to wander around the mountains in groups of three or four with sticks in their hands, looking for ugly people wearing iron masks, hoping to be the lucky one!

Nearly a month has passed, and a lot of fish that escaped the net have been caught, but Mr. Taiqing has never been seen. Occasionally, a few clues came, and they were all oolong incidents. Therefore, many people speculated that this cunning and ugly counselor had already escaped. Out of the range of Qinghai and Jizhou, it is recommended to post a notice, and they are wanted all over the world!
