Big Ear Thief Selling Straw Sandals

Chapter 108 Wancheng and Xunyang are different!
One serving of porridge, two steamed buns, one dish of salt pickles, one hard-boiled egg, and one serving of seasonal vegetables.

It's not surprising that Hua Tuo's lunch is light, but it's the same with the King Wu, which is rare.

As a doctor, don't eat or sleep without talking, it's the way to keep in good health.

However, Executive Jinwu paused at least three times for lunch, listened to the reports of his subordinates and made a decision.

He thought that eating all the food was enough to show that he cared about food, but seeing Zhi Jinwu scraping the porridge bowl clean with his fingers, Hua Tuo was really convinced.

Well, this big man is basically the same as the rumors: easy-going, pragmatic, and decisive.

After lunch, we started to negotiate.

Chao An put forward three conditions: first send a batch of grain to the city; give a large sum of money and farms;

"Zhi Jinwu, Chao An participated in it out of helplessness, and he is not a heinous person in essence."

Seeing the genius doctor defending the bandit chief cautiously, Liu Bei said: "Family has family rules, the state has state laws, and everyone has their own judgment. Therefore, this matter, what you say doesn't count, and what he says doesn't count, and neither do I. You can't judge life and death according to your own preferences."

Hua Tuo was very curious, how could he not be lenient when he was the King of Kings and the imperial envoys who kept their promises?

"Forgive one person so as not to save lives, and the name of Jinwu's benevolence will be known to the world, and he will be good both in public and in private."

Nodding his head, Liu Bei said, "That's what I said, but I can't do this. Go back and tell Chao An that I won't agree to any of his conditions. The only way out is to put down your weapons and surrender, and accept a public trial."

Hua Tuo was very disappointed, and asked anxiously: "Back then, Zhijinwu spared Wancheng, why didn't he let Xunyang go today?"

Liu Bei replied decisively: "It's not the same!"

When Hua Tuo came back, he brought three or four doctors and a large amount of medicine.

Knowing that Zhi Jinwu refused, Chao An was not too angry.

"What's different?"

"Zhi Jinwu said that Wancheng was not slaughtered until the end"

Chao An's heart sank suddenly, and his expression became unnatural.

In the current Xunyang City, there are dead bodies everywhere, and the stench is suffocating. The genius doctor has been worried that there will be a catastrophe and epidemic.

After a while, Chao An seemed to be talking to himself: "The one who ordered the massacre of the city is."

Hua Tuo knew that Qiu Yan was the chief culprit of the massacre, but the beast had already been killed by the Han army, and now Chao An was the leader.

"General Chao, Zhi Jinwu said that there will be a public trial, presided over by the official uniform, and the people of Yangyang will testify, and the general and his subordinates will be allowed to defend themselves. After the public trial, all the files will be submitted to Weiwei for the Queen Mother's approval."

Chao An didn't understand the way of the court, so he asked: "Genius doctor, what does he mean?"

"Like Wancheng, the public trial belongs to the public trial, but in the end it is life or death, and the Queen Mother who is in charge of the court reads the public trial files and then decides."

Chao An was a little surprised, and asked uncertainly: "This means that the queen mother can see what we said in the public trial? Then Zhi Jinwu won't lie, right?"

Hua Tuo shook his head, he still had confidence in Liu Bei's credibility.

"The time in Wancheng was for the emperor to make a ruling, and finally pardoned the death penalty. From the rumors and what I have seen today, it seems that Zhi Jinwu has never broken his promise."

Chao An pondered for a long time, and talked to Daniel.

The final showdown: "Lao Niu, it's useless to consume it. I plan to surrender. I will say something for the poor in the public trial. Let the queen mother and the little emperor listen! What about you?"

Daniel has a toothache, and he has no solution at the moment. His subordinates are always on the run, and it will be a matter of time before they are caught.

But Wancheng's precedent also gave him luck. In addition, the opponent did not attack the city, and even sent doctors to the city to save lives and heal the wounded. At least it can prove that Zhijinwu is really benevolent.

Just drop it, it's better than falling into the hands of other dignitaries.

"Okay! Listen to you!"

Thus, twenty or thirty mid-level and high-level disaster victims leaders were called together, and Chao Niu and his two gave a general idea of ​​their thoughts.

"If you don't kill the residents maliciously, you won't die. As for those who really committed capital crimes, you can escape by yourself. I won't see it."

After Chao An finished speaking, he looked at Daniel.

Da Niu with a bearded face immediately said: "Give me a sweet word, don't be a girl, what's the big deal, and you will be a good man again in 18 years!"

The two bosses agreed, and the others had no right to object, so they could only nod.

More than 9000 victims went out of the city and surrendered, but a small number of victims' gangs repented and were unwilling to leave the city.

Liu Bei imprisoned Chao An Daniu and others, and sent Zhao Yunqing to suppress Xunyang City.

"Stubbornly resist, kill them all!"

Kindness also depends on the object.

I don't know how to measure, I don't know how to live or die, and keeping food is a waste of food.

Zhao Yun led the team, after a day and a night of suppression, they harvested hundreds of heads.

Zhi Jinwu then sent a corpse collection team into the city, collected more than ten thousand unowned corpses, dug deep pits, sprinkled lime for deep burial, and erected mass burial monuments for the victims.

On the day the monument was erected, the surviving old and weak women and children in Xunyang City came to express their condolences.

There are celestial masters, well-known warlocks, and even local witch doctors, all using their supernatural powers to chant scriptures and mantras for the innocent victims and dispel resentment.

In the crowd, weeping was heard at some point, and then thousands of people sobbed, and the tears flew down like a downpour.

Human tragedy, smelling sad.

Faces with broken hearts and hearts like ashes, in the crying, besides sadness, there is also hesitation and confusion.

They are extremely pessimistic about their future life.

Liu Bei just listened, watched, and thought.

At the end of the memorial ceremony, Liu Bei publicly promised that the atrocities must be severely punished and that justice must be done urgently to comfort the dead.

There are various factors for turning disaster victims into mobs, but the most basic is to screen out criminals.

The screening work then started, and the following question: Who will screen?How to identify?

While Hua Tuo, Fan A and Li Dangzhi treated the wounded, they paid close attention to them like all the people in Xunyang.

Liu Bei's method was very straightforward. All the victims of the disaster went up to the high platform, and the survivors in the city identified and testified face to face.

Of course, this time only the thugs who killed, wounded, and looted civilians after entering the city were counted. As for the casualties during the siege operation, that was the state of combat, and this time no statistics were included.

In addition, public testimony can also be made between captives and surrenderers, but there is no reward for the witnesses.

It's too early to make money without profit, and no one will offend his friends for nothing, so there are very few internal whistleblowers.

Zhao Yun was very surprised when he heard about it, so he couldn't help asking President Liu: "There are so many victims in the city, and the surviving people may not recognize all the perpetrators. If there is a reward for reporting, it must be more difficult for the mob to hide?"

Liu Bei said seriously, "What is the purpose of punishing atrocities?"

Zhao Yun replied: "Maintain law and order, and uphold justice!"

"Hey, people's hearts can't stand temptation! If things go on like this, sons sue their fathers, and wives sue their husbands, which is the ugliest thing in the world! Therefore, even if a thousand thugs are let go, this principal is not willing to lure a good person to evil! "

Zhao Yun couldn't quite understand it, but Hua Tuo, who had suffered half his life, could understand and agree with Liu Bei's thoughts.

For the sake of money, many people often frame and slander, which is indefensible.

This move by Zhi Jinwu may cause a considerable number of villains to escape, but reporting for profit is more evil than letting criminals go.

After two days of identification, there were more than [-] mobs suspected of murder and adultery.

After the suspect's stele was guarded alone, Liu Bei announced temporary control regulations for the remaining nearly [-] people.

One is to make every effort to rebuild after the disaster, build dikes and roads, build houses to make up for the city, open up wasteland and dig ditches to alleviate sins.

The second is to organize mutual help and mutual aid associations, to reflect deeply, to open up, to speak freely, and those who speak are innocent.

The third is to recruit all kinds of talents, such as masonry and carpentry, fruit and vegetable farmers, doctors, etc., to teach and guide, and strive for everyone to have a skill.

Eat by craftsmanship, earn money by ability, and those who have permanent property have perseverance.

"I know that some of you committed crimes in the city, but they were not discovered. But I swear, from today on, if you commit any evil deeds, I will punish both crimes and never forgive you!"

So far, more than [-] people have begun to put their tails between their legs and honestly accept their guilt and reform.

Zhao Yun even discovered that the victims in the reformation camps are getting better day after day, and there are very few people who steal, rape and play tricks.

Therefore, the reconstruction work is progressing more and more rapidly.

On the fifth day after the rebellion was quelled, Dong Zhong and Zhong Yao arrived in Xunyang.

Looking at the suburbs where the fields are neat, the gullies are clear, and the camps are scattered, the southern suburbs that have been severely flooded have completed large-scale drainage. If the water marks on the city walls were not clearly discernible, the two of them could not believe that there had been floods and large-scale floods here. riot.

Look at the busy farmers and coolies, as well as the newly renovated houses in the city, the reopening of shops, and the increasing number of pedestrians, which is not much worse than ordinary county towns.

When they entered Xunyang City, they encountered a scene that they would never have imagined in their dreams. The most common things here happen dozens of times a day.

This small county town, like a phoenix reborn, is dazzling and dazzling.

　Happy weekend, dear friends!
