The Battle of Princes Worldwide Online

Chapter 217 Zhang Xianzhong's End

After traveling for more than a month, Pang Tong, Xu Shu and his party finally entered Wuyang City.

When the two entered Wuyang City, they happened to encounter an execution.

The generals leading the team this time are the golden gunner Xu Ning and the bully Zhou Tong newly summoned by Lucheng.

The main task of the two is to deter those clans who dare to resist the census.

Force can be used when necessary, and this is also a death order from Lucheng.

At this time, on a high platform, a middle-aged man dressed as a pawn was reading the laws of Wuyang.

"Before this, I warned you, but you ignored the warning, so I am going to read the law.

According to Article [-] of the General Rules of Wuyang Law, no one is allowed to keep slaves under any circumstances. If you intentionally violate this article, you will be sentenced to death.

But my lord is merciful, this time I will only punish the chief villain, Liu Shi!Are you guilty? "

This pawn was originally a modern person, and he also studied law. After the promulgation of the Wuyang law, he has been working in the law department.

The Judiciary has three rights, namely, the right to warn, to read the law, and to sentence.

This right is actually equivalent to a court. In addition to the court, Wuyang City also has two departments, namely the Supervisory Yuan, or Procuratorate, which is run by Wen Chenxi, and the Penalty Division, which is specifically responsible for execution.

These three institutions supervise and cooperate with each other, but they are different from each other. However, in actual operation, sometimes it depends on the situation.

For example, now, after the pawn reads the trial result on behalf of the Department of Law, it is basically equivalent to the finalization of the case.

This is also for the purpose of improving efficiency, and it is a special case, which directly saves two steps.

The basic operating procedure should be that the procuratorate issues an arrest approval document, and then the Penalty Division directly arrests the person and collects evidence before handing it over to the Legal Division for sentencing.

At this time, seeing that Liu Shi's legs were a little weak, the pawn didn't want to waste time.

He took out the execution document and writing brush that he had already prepared, wrote his name on it, and then said: "This is the execution document, and my name is written on it. My surname is Zhang, and the single character is Hui. I will write this Submit the execution documents and evidence to the Supervisory Department, and you can designate a person to go to the Procuratorate to submit a statement, if the Supervisory Court decides that this is an unjust case, I will also be sentenced to death!"

After finishing speaking, Zhang Hui handed over the execution document to Xu Ning who was beside him, and Xu Ning just glanced at it and waved his hand.

Afterwards, two more soldiers stepped forward and controlled Liu Shi, who had already slumped on the ground, and one of them raised his machete, and directly chopped off his head.

And the whole process only took less than 10 minutes.

When Xu Ning led the army and horses and left the place, the crowd who were still watching began to discuss.

One person said: "Do you think Liu Shi will submit a confession? He just appointed his eldest son."

"Submit a fart, I was present when the evidence was collected. A total of 400 people wrote their names on the testimony and pressed their blood fingerprints. The confession cannot be reversed. This is ironclad evidence!

And if you just ask anyone, there are quite a few slaves killed by the Liu family, at least a dozen of them! "The person who spoke was a strong man, and it could be seen from the words that this man was quite dissatisfied with the Liu family.

"Be careful what comes out of your mouth, we can't afford to offend the Liu family!" Another person tugged on the sleeve of the strong man and said softly.

"It's all right. Now it's not like before. Everything must follow the law. With this time, I don't believe that the Liu family dares to break the law!"

"Yes, but be careful. This time I heard that Wuyang City is recruiting road workers, two copper coins a day (gold and silver currency, the Financial Secretary stipulates that one tael of gold equals ten taels of silver equals one hundred copper coins), This is very rich, do you want to go with me?"

"Go, of course we will go for such a good thing."

While chatting and laughing, the two looked forward to each other, and as they talked, they began to gossip about the Liu family.

When the crowd dissipated, Pang Tong glanced at the shocked Xu Shu, and said with a smile, "How?"

"How is it?" Xu Shu, who hadn't recovered yet, was a little dazed when he heard these words.

The trial just now was well-founded. From the reading of the law to the signing of the execution documents, every process was meticulous. What is even more commendable is that the punishment for wrongful judgments turned out to be capital punishment.

With this kind of system in place, everyone must be cautious when making judgments, and the number of unjust cases will be greatly reduced.

Xu Shu is not a fool either, he knows the whole leopard at a glance, just from the implementation of the law, it can be seen that this Wuyang City is indeed extraordinary.

Coupled with the paving scene he saw before, Xu Shu was a little shaken.

……

Regardless of what Xu Shu thought, after more than a month, the situation in Yizhou became more and more chaotic.

The most eye-catching thing here is naturally the battle between Liu Zhang and Zhang Xianzhong.

In the absence of foreign aid, Zhang Xianzhong also started a military campaign. In the Shu County vassal state he occupied, a large number of young and strong men were recruited by him, and many of them were thrown into the battlefield without even training.

At this time, Zhang Xianzhong finally revealed his true nature, and once the mask was torn off, the previously suppressed nature also broke out at the same time.

Zhang Xianzhong's brutal and murderous image cannot be washed away no matter what.

Just like what Master Shuren said in "Morning Cool Essay".

"Zhang Xianzhong didn't kill people at first, he wanted to be the emperor, but later he found out that Li Zicheng entered the BJ, and then the Qing soldiers entered the customs, and he had only one way to go down, so he started killing, knowing that the world has nothing for himself , then destroy other people’s things, since Li Zicheng has entered BJ as the emperor, to be an emperor must have people, and he will kill Li Zicheng’s people, so that he has no emperor to be.”

Lucheng didn't know Zhang Xianzhong's heart at this time, but judging from the intelligence department's report, Zhang Xianzhong's psychology had begun to lose balance.

The fact that a large number of civilians were recruited to the front line to die is one evidence, and the other evidence is the massacre of the city, and the massacre of the people in their own city!
Although this reason is very strong, it also seems to be very reasonable, that is, the people in this place refuse to serve as cannon fodder.

A hundred households signed a joint letter, but in any case, just because of the resistance of these one hundred households and 600 people, the city of 5 people was directly slaughtered. No way.

Only people who are mentally unbalanced can do this kind of thing.

It's just that what Lucheng didn't know was that Zhang Xianzhong, who had already fallen into madness, transferred his hatred to him.

And the danger is approaching quietly!
