Normally, Li Yunze would rectify his situation after gaining power. Lan
The local urban foxes and social rats, the evil officials in the yamen, and the profiteers on the street are all targets for rectification.
Chang'an City is naturally no exception.
He thought that Chang'an City would settle down after the reorganization, but he never thought that there would be people who dared to mess around at such a critical moment when the enemy was besieging the city.
"You are looking down on me, Mr. Li."
On the way to Jingzhao Mansion, Li Yunze had many thoughts running through his mind.
A certain boss like Lu Xie, who had not escaped from Chang'an City, was instigating the evil behind the scenes.
Huang Chao sent people to sneak into the city to cause destruction. Lan
The clan members who didn't run away were secretly trying to hold them back.
The leader of the Chamber of Commerce is like Jiang Chun, risking his life for money, etc.
There were too many possibilities, which made Li Yunze's eyes become more serious.
If there was a big force stabbing him in the back, he would definitely go crazy.
As a Jingzhao Yin, this is the first time for Li Yunze to come to the Jingzhao Mansion Yamen.
With a dark face, he led a large group of tooth soldiers into the Yamen. The shocked crowd lined up to listen to Li Yunze's reprimand.
Li Yunze, who was sitting on the chair of Da Ma Jin Dao, looked at everyone with an indifferent expression, "What did I say when I offered food?" Lan
Immediately, a document came out to salute, "Return to the Ming Mansion to ask questions, the limit is 200 liters of rice."
"Then why is there a grain merchant in the West Market who offers four hundred coins for a bucket of rice?" Li Yunze's eyes became more and more cold. "The general's words fell on deaf ears. Is it because you are distracted or because I can't lift the sword?"
“It’s unfair~~~”
Everyone hurriedly cried out, "How dare we disobey the orders of the Ming Dynasty? When we give grain to grain merchants, we always give them 200 wen per pound of rice."
"Haha~~~"
It's okay to deceive those who are stupid in reading with this kind of words, but if you want to deceive Li Yunze, you would be looking down on him.
"Do you still want to say that when you give grain to the grain dealer, it costs 200 cents per meter, so it has nothing to do with you that the grain dealer raises the price and resells it?"
Having said this, Li Yunze smiled and shook his head, "This routine will remain unchanged for thousands of years."
"Okay, there's no need to explain anything." He waved his hand, "I understand without explaining. You colluded with the grain merchants and supplied grain to the grain merchants at the official price to deceive me. The grain merchants will sell them at a higher price. Give it to the people, and share the profits earned among them. If anyone comes to complain,
It's up to you to sort it out. Yes or no? "
Everyone in Jingzhao Mansion looked at each other, this martial artist was not stupid, he actually knew the secrets inside.
"I think the same is done in Chang'an and Wannian counties."
Li Yunze sighed and simply stood up, "I am busy with official duties and have no time to spend with you. Anyone who comes forward to surrender now can save his life. Otherwise, he will be dealt with by military law."
Military law in the Tang Dynasty was no longer as complicated as in the Qin and Han Dynasties, where noses were cut off, ears were chopped off, and hands and feet were beheaded. Lan
To sum it up in a general way, it is to be beaten with a military stick for minor crimes, and beheaded directly for serious crimes.
Simple, clear and very convenient.
Judging from what these people have done, they probably wouldn't be able to get away with fighting with military sticks.
Everyone in Jingzhao Mansion had different expressions but remained silent.
The ones with happy faces were all those at the bottom, and they had no share in sharing the benefits. But now that someone is gone, they have a chance.
People who look panicked but want to get through the situation can only hope that Li Yunze will be able to escape the blame.
Besides, it was Mingfu who asked you to sell it for two hundred cents a dou, and we all followed your instructions. We took advantage of the opportunity to earn a vote because of some mistakes. You didn't explain it clearly. What does it have to do with me? Lan
It can only be said that they don't understand Li Yunze yet.
If you really knew him, you would never think so.
Although Li Yunze is a gentleman, he cannot be bullied.
On the contrary, he is not big-minded, and anyone who dares to play tricks on him will definitely be punished.
Seeing that everyone was silent, Li Yunze directly asked the tooth soldiers beside him to "go to the wounded barracks to select a group of brothers who can no longer serve and take over the duties of each class in Jingzhao Mansion and Chang'an Wannian County."
The government officials were naturally frightened and cried out that they were wronged. Some even said angrily, "We have been working as government officials for generations, so why did the Ming government rob us?"
Li Yunze waved his hand to these government officials who had been passed down from generation to generation, and the tooth soldiers stepped forward and drove them away. Lan
Li Yunze looked at the indifferent clerks and smiled casually, "We will set up a training class in the army to teach the sergeants how to read and write. After graduation, they can retire and become clerks."
There are no illiterates in the modern world, everyone is educated.
In this era, there are very few knowledgeable scholars. If you want to be an official or something, reading and literacy are the foundation.
Setting up training courses in the military is a long-term plan.
From now on, whether Li Yunze stays in Chang'an City or goes outside to serve as a governor for a town, he will need a large number of clerks under his command.
But now, "post notices in the city to recruit people to serve as officials."
After the arrangements were made, Li Yunze pointed at the yamen clerks, "Take them out and interrogate them strictly. Ask them what evil they have done in the past, and whoever you peeked into taking a bath when you were a child. After asking, I will ask those who sell my grain at a higher price." Deal with the profiteers together." Lan
Facts have proved that even in the Tang Dynasty, being an official is a job that people all over the world are eager to pursue.
The day the notice was posted, hundreds of people came to sign up.
As the most prosperous capital city in the world, there are too many Changdiao people here waiting for opportunities. Now that the opportunity comes, of course they will not let it go.
As for Li Yunze's actions at this time, it has already touched the bottom line of the Tang Dynasty. Now he is the biggest in Chang'an City, who cares about this?
Li Yunze provided a large amount of food, which stabilized the people of Chang'an City.
Now, we have to find a way to lift the siege.
There are quite a few reinforcements on the outside, but the soldiers and horses in each town are hesitant to move forward because of their own thoughts, so they still have to rely on themselves. Lan
Time flies and comes to the spring of the second year of Guangming.
Huang Chao's army, which suffered heavy losses, finally built a huge siege equipment.
In order to prevent it from being destroyed again, they protected the siege equipment very well this time. Li Yunze only destroyed part of it after several attacks.
Huang Chao, who could no longer hold himself back, soon launched an all-out attack on Chang'an City.
First, the river channel was dug to divert all the running water around Chang'an City, causing the water level of the moat to drop.
Afterwards, the cannon fodder rushed forward carrying sacks filled with soil and stones, braving the rain of arrows to fill the moat.
This work alone lasted more than ten days. Lan
After the moat was filled with many passages, the general attack was finally launched.
Thousands of thieves pushed all kinds of siege equipment towards the city wall.
The defenders on the city wall also began to fight back. Not only were arrows raining down, heavy weapons such as the Eight Ox Crossbow also fired desperately, missing the thick crossbow that was half a man long.
The Eight Ox Crossbow is extremely powerful. When it hits a person, it will be directly nailed to the ground regardless of whether you are a soldier or not.
If you shoot it at the siege equipment, it will also directly penetrate the hole.
Rush cars, ladders, nest cars, etc. pass through the filled moat and lean against the city wall.
Because it was too heavy and solid, there was no way to push it away. Lan
A large number of thieves took the stairs and ladders and rushed up to the city wall, fighting fiercely with the defenders.
The most intense battle was at Yanxing Gate.
Because Li Yunze had left the city to fight from here several times, it was obvious that the city gate here was not blocked, so Huang Chao chose this as his main attack direction.
Tens of thousands of thieves surged over and attacked the city walls on both sides of Yanxing Gate. There were dozens of siege equipment that successfully leaned against the city wall alone.
Then there was a heavy crash car, which was dragged to the city gate by dozens of armored cattle.
The wooden bumper wrapped in a metal sheath was pulled up, then fell down and hit the city gate hard.
'winter!
'Lan
The terrifying crashing sound made everyone panic.
"General, seal the city gate." Many people came to Li Yunze and suggested that Yanxing Gate be sealed with sand, gravel and mud, so that they would not be afraid even if the city gate was destroyed.
"No need." Li Yunze, who was standing at the top of the city looking at the various passages in the city, pointed at the roads, "The passages in Xinchang, Shengdao, Xuanping, and Shengping have all been blocked, so that the cavalry can move on Zhuque Street. Waiting to strike.”
Li Yunze not only wanted to defend Chang'an City, but also inflicted heavy losses on Huang Chao's troops.
Chang'an City was originally a military city, and the blockade of the city immediately transformed into small fortresses. It is truly the strongest city in the world.
After two consecutive days of fierce attacks, and after paying huge casualties, Huang Chao's general Zhao Zhang finally broke through the Yanxing Gate.
Huang Chao was overjoyed when he heard the news, and immediately ordered the generals to use Yanxing Gate as a breakthrough point to enter the city. Lan
Many thieves poured into the city like a tide, brandishing weapons and preparing to vent their grievances and anger.
They want to plunder, they want to slaughter, they want to make piston movements!
But when they rushed into the city, they were shocked to find that there were tall and solid walls on both sides of the road, and the passages between various places and cities were also blocked.
When he wanted to make an impact, he was met with a hail of arrows, but when he forced his way past, he was faced with an eyeful of soldiers.
More and more people rushed in from behind, and they had no choice but to keep moving forward.
Passing through the cities and towns everywhere, facing the crossbows and stones fired from both sides, they crossed half of Chang'an City, and finally rushed to Zhuque Street on the central axis of Chang'an City.
Zhuque Street is very wide and is called Tianjie. Lan
This street is the north-south central axis of Chang'an City, with a length of more than five kilometers and a width of more than 100 meters.
The street, which is more than 100 meters wide, is longer than the length of a football field.
There is no doubt that Zhuque Street is the number one street in the world in this era.
When Gaihong's men, who were rushing the fastest, ran out of the street and came to Zhuque Street.
Everyone was shocked by the terrifyingly spacious street in front of them.
So flat, so spacious, so... hiss? !
The bandit soldiers finally saw the officers and soldiers gathered on Zhuque Street, and at a glance they could see thousands of horsemen. Lan
Li Yunze, who was wearing armor, was holding a horse spear in his hand. When he saw the thieves rushing onto Zhuque Street, he immediately raised his hand.
The soldiers who had been sitting on the ground to rest got up and mounted their horses, transforming into terrifying armored horsemen!
Li Yunze raised his hand and lowered his visor, took a deep breath, and waved the horse in his hand, "Charge!"
Thousands of cavalrymen ran in a mighty manner, crashing into the passage crowded with thieves like a mountain bearing down on them.
The terrifying impact of the armored cavalry was revealed, and the swords cracked like waves, destroying the thieves along the way.
That soaring momentum is what truly sweeps through thousands of armies like a mammoth!
