Chapter 415

Wei Ran did not directly return to Guanzhong, but went to Henan road. Now that the drought has passed, Henan road has become very broken and sparsely populated due to many refugee rebellions.

In many old cities, even wild animals ran wild. Even so, Henan road is also the core area of previous refugee rebellions.

Wei Ran screened the captured mobs in dujidao. Due to the large number of people, he could not distinguish the seriousness of the crimes committed by the refugees.

Therefore, it can only be distinguished by two standards: one is whether to serve as grass-roots officials in the Yellow nest army, and the other is the time of joining the Yellow nest army.

Anyone who has held any position will be treated as a felony, and those who have joined the Yellow nest army for more than half a year will also be treated as a felony.

All misdemeanors were resettled in several major prefectures and counties of Henan Province, where there was little population and no order, and sent their own bureaucrats to govern by military law.

Although Wei Ran was eager to resume production, he also knew that it was easy for people to get bad, but it was even more difficult to get better.

Therefore, in the first three years of militarized management, all the harvests engaged in reclamation will be incorporated into the local prefectural and county government treasury. After three years, according to the production enthusiasm and law-abiding performance during reclamation, personal freedom will be restored and land will be distributed.

In the future, a number of people will be pardoned year by year. I believe that after they are used to military management and know that the land they cultivate will become their own land, their production enthusiasm and law-abiding will be improved. The local government and the imperial court can recover slowly.

Most importantly, the restoration of order in Henan Province will play a positive role in completely calming the civil unrest in the world.

However, after Wei Ran arranged the relevant matters, there were local tyrants who didn't have eyes to find trouble.

The original local tyrants and gentry in Henan Dao have basically moved their families to dujidao. After Wei Ran stabilized the Henan Road, they naturally had to return to their hometown.

This is human nature. If they just return to their hometown to resume local production, Wei Ran will be very welcome. This has an important role in promoting the recovery of the vitality of Henan Province.

However, some gentry even bribed Fenglin army officers and staff, wantonly engaged in land annexation in the sparsely populated Henan Road, and privately purchased sinners to enrich their own slaves.

Wei Ran was already setting about resettling those refugees with serious crimes to the right side of Gansu for reclamation, but he became angry after he learned about Henan Road from his spy agency.

Therefore, he returned to Henan Province and engaged in the elimination of counter revolutionaries in the army and his own bureaucracy.

Find out those senior generals and staff who accept bribes, collude with local giants and destroy their own policies, and then conduct a public trial in public, execute them by military justice, and confiscate the family land.

Many people in the army came to beg for mercy. These officers and staff to be executed are good brothers who have followed Wei ran through life and death for many years. They can rely on each other. In terms of the morality of this era, such a trusted generation is extremely rare.

It was Li Jianxing who came to plead with Wei Ran and burst into tears.

Wei Ran has a firm heart. What has been decided cannot be easily changed. He doesn't need a Li Guang style army that pays attention to human feelings. He wants an army that is as white as Huo Qubing, based on military law, with clear rewards and penalties and strict discipline.

The former is easy to create factions and can only maintain a temporary combat effectiveness. Only the latter is the rudiment of a modern army. As long as the system is not bad, the combat effectiveness will be guaranteed. Wei Ran knew clearly which was more important.

He not only beheaded all these senior officers and staff who violated military discipline, but also ordered that anyone in the whole army who accepted bribes and was willing to return them to confess within ten days could be dealt with leniently.

Because Wei Ran's public trial of cutting off a large number of senior generals and staff in the army was so sensational that the whole army was shocked and terrified. More than a thousand generals and men came to confess within ten days.

After seeing Wei Ran and Li Guangsi shocking, they knew that the army had become so corrupt since they reached the rich land in Guanzhong from the bitter and cold land on the border.

At this time, Wei Ran can only trust Li Guangsi and some generals of the original Zuo Shence army. Li Guangsi has a strong concept of the overall situation and can be in charge alone.

The Zuo Shence army has lived in a rich place for a long time and can maintain combat effectiveness. Obviously, it has its unique characteristics. Wei Ran has arranged it everywhere in the army to rectify military discipline.

After that, the number of Pro soldiers was expanded, named the gendarmerie, and military courts were organized and delegated to various departments to supervise military discipline.

After cleaning up the interior, Wei Yancai began to attack the tyrants and gentry in Henan Province who dared to bribe the officers and soldiers for personal gain.

Because all the umbrellas in the army that had an affair with them were removed, and many major generals and soldiers were involved in the purge. They did not dare to put their anger on Wei Ran, who was very dignified, so they could only pour their anger on these stubborn tyrants.

A thorough investigation of Henan road is the destruction of a large group of families. There are cavalry blocking the border. They can't even escape to other places. They are captured, confiscated their family property and land, or become slaves, or killed on the spot.

The cruel and bloody means have been used many times. This time, it was introduced to Chang'an. Many officials who received the blood and tears complaints from their servants still felt frightened, but did not dare to resist at all. They also ordered them to bring their families back to Chang'an and not to conflict with Fenglin army again.

However, the five surnames and seven hopes who are familiar with Wei Ran's behavior style have deepened their ties with Wei Ran.

No matter how bloody and cruel he is, no matter how arrogant and domineering he is, at least he knows how to abide by the rules.

Unlike other Jiedu envoys and generals, they act purely on their own selfish thoughts. As long as they can't guess what they are thinking, they will always be worried about death, because those people are scoundrels who have formulated rules but don't abide by them.

Relatively speaking, Wei Ran, who is also cruel, is a rare person who abides by the rules. When dealing with such people, as long as they don't violate the rules formulated by him, they don't have to worry too much and will save a lot of worry.

As for his unfriendly attitude towards the gentry, as long as he is not a madman crazy enough to wipe out the aristocratic family, he is just sacrificing some interests.

Wei Ran is very satisfied with the cooperation of five surnames and seven hopes. Since he is willing to hand over the person who bribes the generals in the army, he only deals with the parties and does not expand the attack. On the contrary, they also promoted some five surnamed children who acted with the army and had a capable and talented style to show their friendship.

He also knew that there were many talents among the children of these aristocratic families, and even recommended their family members to serve as assassins in Henan Dao.

During this purge, Fenglin army lost a lot of warm-blooded human feelings, but became more pure iron blood, and the atmosphere changed.

However, Fenglin army still has a fatal defect, that is, the proportion of Hu people in the army accounts for more than 60%, far more than Han people.

Although Wei Ran disrupted the compilation of Hu and Han, mixed them, vigorously promoted Mandarin and strengthened literacy, this work of transforming Hu into Han is of a long-term nature, and it is impossible to completely turn barbarians into civilized people in the short term.

The Fenglin army has a great influence on the folk in Longyou road. The majority of Hu sergeants also makes the folk Hu people in Longyou more arrogant and confident than the Han people. They also prefer to take the initiative to cause conflict, which will also affect the Hu Han contradiction in the army to a certain extent.

Therefore, it is very important for this group of hundreds of thousands of refugees to be sent to the west of Longyou river. Their arrival can increase the proportion of Han people in Longyou road to a certain extent. It makes the number of folk Han people tend to be the majority, which is more conducive to the rule of longyoudao.

In the future, local conscription in Longyou road will not lead to more Hu and fewer Han.

However, the migration of hundreds of thousands of people is obviously not so easy in this era. Normally, it is impossible not to die on the road.

Therefore, it was suggested that the hundreds of thousands of massacres should be brought down to save food and trouble.
