Liu Xiu looked serious and said, "what do you think of Ji Chang?"
Ma Liangdao: "the first thing for young master is to solve the current difficulties of the people, so food is very important. I want to take a step first and go to you county to find out the current situation of you county. When you arrive in you County, you will be able to grasp the information at the first time, and then make a response. "
After thinking, Liu Xiu nodded and said, "yes!"
"Mount Yue!"
Liu Xiu turned around and gave orders.
Yue Shan came up with a hatchet and said, "what can I do for you, young master?"
Liu xiudao: "to protect Ji Chang, you go to you county first."
"No!"
Yue Shan nodded and bowed his hand to Ma Liangxing.
Ma Liang took some dry food with him, left with Yueshan first, and went straight to the county.
Half an hour later, the porridge was ready. The steaming porridge gives off a tempting aroma. After bowls of porridge are multiplied out, they are handed to the people. Many people were holding bowls and began to cry excitedly. Some people can't wait to drink two mouthfuls. Although they are very hot, their faces are full of happiness.
At this time, a bowl of porridge, is the happiest thing.
Just food and clothing!
This is the temporary thought of these people.
Two pots of porridge, all into the stomach of the people inside, not a drop left.
Many people's stomachs are bulging as if they were pregnant in April. Although my stomach was a little sore, I could endure another day or two.
Liu Xiu came to the common people and looked at everyone. He said in a loud voice, "I'm Liu Xiu, the new magistrate of you county. If you believe me, don't run away and return to you county. Next, I will try my best to solve the problem of famine. "
When the people heard this, they all cheered.
For them, escaping from you county is the most helpless thing. They have no food to eat after leaving you county.
Stay and have no food.
But you County, there is no food everywhere, countless people hungry, there is no food, had to flee. As a new county magistrate, Liu Xiu is undoubtedly the best news for the people to solve the food problem.
"Thank you, my Lord. Thank you, my Lord."
"Your grace is great, and you will live a long life."
"My Lord, although my girl is thin, she is really smart."
One by one, people kowtow to thank one another.
Liu Xiu's mood has never been better. He did not linger any longer, returned to the carriage and ordered to continue. The rest of the people followed. The original team of more than 100 people began to become huge.
Less than eight miles away from the county, the team stopped again.
Deng Zhan came to the carriage in a hurry and said, "son, it's not good. This time, it's a group of bandits who are blocking the way."
Liu Xiu raised his eyebrows and stepped out of the carriage.
Following Deng Zhan to the front of the team, Liu Xiu's eyes fell on the opposite person. There are about 200 people in this group. Each of them has different clothes. The weapons in their hands are steel knives, iron forks, or iron pickaxes
These thieves are made up of the common people.
In front of the people, no, it should be said that they are bandits. They are transformed from the people to the bandits.
Liu Xiu stared at the front and said in a deep voice, "who is the leader?"
"I am!"
Opposite Liu Xiu, a tall, ferocious middle-aged man spoke haughtily. Zhuang Biao's hand, carrying a sharp knife, in the sunshine, the blade of the knife, flashing cold light.
Liu Xiu's eyes narrowed slightly and said in a deep voice: "I think your clothes should be common people. As long as you are willing to lay down your arms, abandon the evil and follow the good, I will spare you from death and let bygones be bygones. "
At the beginning, the bandits were ordinary people, but they were forced to make a living and began to plunder. The most terrible thing is that after the wildness in the hearts of these people was released, the bandits soon became real bandits. They committed all kinds of crimes, burning, killing and looting.
After all, it's a group of poor people.
Liu Xiu is not willing to give up if he can save it.
Zhuang Biao stared at Liu Xiu, but with a big laugh, he said: "boy, have you been kicked by a donkey? I'm still stuck in the door. I'm so naive. Lao Tzu saw that there is a lot of food in your team. Hand over all the grain and get out of the way. I will spare you from death. "
Since taking a group of people to plunder, Zhuang Biao's life is more comfortable than ever.
Now, he likes this kind of day. Although it's very dangerous, he doesn't want to go back to the old days because he has wine and meat and can sleep with women freely.
Liu Xiu looked around the other bandits and said, "all of you, put down your weapons. I'll let bygones be bygones, or I'll kill you. "
However, none of the bandits under Zhuang Biao moved.
These people are rebellious and unwilling to lay down their arms after tasting the sweetness one by one.Zhuang Biao's eyes were cold and sneered: "boy, it seems that you are toasting instead of drinking. Today, your grandfather Zhuang, let you know what it's like to regret. "
"Come on, give it to me."
Zhuang Biao yelled, and the people under his command began to slowly approach Liu Xiu's team.
Liu Xiu said in a deep voice, "Deng Zhan, kill me!"
After Deng Zhan got the order, he raised his iron sword and roared: "kill!" In an instant, Deng Zhan and his 100 private soldiers rushed up directly. The private soldiers presented by the Ma family are all elite. Everyone has armor and is an elite teacher.
Liu Xiu didn't step forward and watched the private soldiers kill him.
In the confrontation between the two sides, a hundred private soldiers cut into each other like chopping melons and vegetables, tearing each other's defense line, without any pity in their eyes. A group of bandits who have lost their humanity are not worthy of pity.
Deng Zhan spurted his horse to Zhuang Biao in the blink of an eye. He let out a roar. The sword came out of its sheath and stabbed in the air. Two people a wrong face, Zhuang Biao's throat, more than a bloodstain.
"Poof!"
Blood donation splash, Zhuang Biao directly fell to the ground.
"Kill
Deng Zhan drives his horse back and forth, and his sword reaps his life.
At the same time, the cavalry also killed the bandits.
The number of bandits is more, but they have no fighting capacity at all and can't stand fighting. A moment later, they began to flee around, and even began to kneel down and surrender one by one.
"Don't kill me. I surrender. I will surrender."
"I don't want to kill either. Don't kill me."
"I'll never rob around again. Let me go."
One by one, the bandits knelt down and cried out to surrender, while the rest of the fleeing bandits, under the cover of Deng Zhan and private soldiers, almost did not escape.
A fight is just a moment.
There was blood on the ground, and there were bodies, all of them killed.
The people behind the carriage, seeing this scene, suddenly cheered, and their eyes were full of joy. Deng Zhan drove his horse to Liu Xiu's side and said, "young master, what should we do with these surrender bandits?"
"Kill
Liu Xiu's eyes were cold.
Deng Zhan turned around and ordered that, in an instant, the private soldiers waved their steel knives and all the bandits who knelt down to surrender were killed. The rest of the bandits wanted to fight and were killed without exception.
There was no pity in Liu Xiu's eyes.
These bandits have been lost for a long time. Let them go now, and after they leave, they will be plundered again. They are not used to living in poverty and will continue to plunder. Especially after tasting the sweetness, it is impossible to look back.
Make an example of others!
This is Liu Xiu's example to other thieves.
Liu Xiu's eyes were sharp and he waved: "clean up the battlefield and count the number of people." Half a quarter of an hour later, the number of private soldiers was counted. No one died, only 13 were slightly injured and were being bandaged. Liu Xiu was also very satisfied with the result. The private soldiers presented by the Ma family played a very important role.
