Ba Ba Song's eyebrows wrinkled slightly. There were many fierce Jie around him, and the Xiongnu generals were all happy when they heard the order. They laughed and drew their swords and ran forward, commanding their men to start harvesting heads, but he He whispered to Tuoba Gui: "Your Majesty, if you kill like this, I'm afraid these people's families will become enemies with you, and people here in Hebei will be hard-pressed in the future."
Tuoba Gui said coldly: "If I hadn't come to Hebei this time, I wouldn't have known that the people here are so difficult to govern. It has been almost ten years since the founding of the Wei Dynasty. They don't regard themselves as Wei people at all. See Master Wang fled in all directions as soon as he saw the enemy army. In Qinghe County, the big families, powerful people, and even ordinary people all have their hearts set on the enemy. The reason why Hebei is still the territory of the Wei Dynasty is because of the Wei Dynasty. There is also force that can suppress people like Cui Gongbo. Once the king of the Wei Dynasty can no longer come, or there are foreign aids like Nan Yan, they will separate here and establish themselves, or even rebel against the Wei Dynasty."
"In the past, when Zhang Gun and others came to submit, they talked about benevolence, righteousness, human hearts, destiny, etc., and said that they wanted to take over the Central Plains. They had to follow what they said. I have never seen the Han world with my own eyes before, and I want to attract Talents came to invest, so I just did what they said. But as a result, I know now that they just wanted to use the power of Wei to seek their own glory and wealth, to become high-ranking officials in the court, and to let their families live in their hometown. By occupying the land and the population, one can be the princes of this hometown for generations. Just like those high-ranking families in the Eastern Jin Dynasty, they finally emptied the monarchy and made us prairie people become mere decorations."
"This is what Sima Yi did back then. As the leader of a Han family in Hebei, he finally relied on the support of these high-ranking families to stand on Wei's behalf. Huh, Cui Cheng urged us to use Wei as the country's name. It seems that he also wanted to replace Jin with Wei. Now I finally understand the story. It tells the story of our Wei horses marching to the Central Plains, bleeding and dying, fighting to the death with the Murong family, but in the end we took advantage of these Han people in Hebei!"
Baba Song sighed: "But these Han people have been attached to the noble families for hundreds of thousands of years. It cannot be changed in a short time. If they rely on such violent means to establish their power through massacre, I'm afraid... "
A cold and stern look flashed in Tuoba Gui's eyes, which made Babasong stop what he was saying. He only heard Tuoba Gui say in a deep voice: "Back then, when I was still with Murong Chui, I saw with my own eyes all his various behaviors. Using coercive means, those Sergeant Ding Ling who were enemies of him, whether they were captured on the battlefield or surrendered after exhaustion, would be massacred. In this way, those who were enemies of him would not dare to openly confront him anymore. When we enter the Wei Dynasty, We took control of the Central Plains and marched into Hebei, but we did not do enough in this regard and killed too few people! Even if Lu Pu and his son made such blatant judgments, we only killed a few leaders and pardoned their clan relatives, like this time Isn't the Lu Yuan who led the people to defect Lu Pu's cousin? If I had followed Murong Chui's approach, he would have been killed long ago. How could there be a chance to rebel against Wei this time?"
Ba Ba Song's eyes fell on the distant wasteland. The killing had come to an end. More than two thousand old, weak, sick and disabled, most of them were lying dead in the field. Everyone had from a few to ten branches stuck in their bodies. The waiting arrows stained the grassland with a radius of ten miles red with blood, and the air was filled with the smell of blood. More than two hundred warriors in heavy armor had already lined up and stepped into the corpses, heading towards each one. The corpses were pierced with arrows mercilessly. Occasionally, a few people who were still alive would either wave their hands and beg, or use their last strength to jump up and try to resist, but they were all stabbed by more than five long arrows. At the same time, the blood penetrated the body and turned into meat skewers. The death was so tragic that it was indescribable.
The wailing and begging for mercy gradually subsided, and the warriors who killed the corpse also stepped on the bloody water up to their ankles and advanced towards the densely packed center of the corpse. Thousands of them were holding short knives and their upper bodies were bare, wrapped only in animal skins. The knife and axemen at the waist quickly ran forward and harvested the heads.
Babasong shook his head gently: "After the first actual inspection, how will these corpses be disposed of? It's almost early summer. If the corpses are exposed outside, I'm afraid..."
Tuoba Gui said coldly: "After the head inspection, all the heads were staked and erected in front of the city gate. Let the neighboring counties recruit young men to dig holes and bury the bodies, so that they can see them with their own eyes. The majesty of me and the Wei Dynasty, on the other hand, my army is still useful, so I won’t waste time here.”
Babasong was a little surprised: "I killed more than two thousand people..., oh, no, I eliminated more than two thousand rebels. This trip also showed the power of the army and avenged the dead soldiers. Next, What else is there to do? Are we still going to patrol Hebei and continue to frighten the local Han people?"
Tuoba Gui licked his lips sinisterly, with a wolf-like light in his eyes: "The army continues to patrol the official road in Hebei, making a circle, this time returning to Pingcheng from Jingxing in the north. If there is anything like this seen these days on the road, Anyone who runs away after encountering the army will be regarded as enemy spies, and they will be arrested and sent back to Pingcheng. Didn't the prophecy say that if we don't massacre Qinghe and kill ten thousand people, then I will die. This time I massacre Qinghe, But we have only killed more than 2,000 people, and there are still nearly 8,000 heads left. Hehe, if Qinghe does not have enough heads, then go back to Pingcheng and kill slowly. Stop after killing 10,000 people. This time, I will come in person. As for the remaining Those who come down can continue to work as laborers in Pingcheng. Perhaps only whips, tears and beheadings can make these Hebei Han people understand that they are today's subordinates!"
As he spoke, he stood up, picked up his iron sword, turned around and left without looking back. Babasong looked at his leaving figure, shook his head in disbelief, and murmured to himself: "Agui , you are really crazy!"
Pingcheng, Imperial Palace, Fengyi Pavilion.
A low roar sounded, and the violent earthquakes and mountains suddenly stopped. On the jade couch, two naked figures suddenly separated. A majestic man with disheveled beard and hair jumped out of the bed, holding a large He poured the liquor into his mouth in big gulps.
A beautiful white-skinned woman with a face like a peach blossom, eyes like stars, and a seductive charm between her eyebrows. A large leopard skin coat covered her delicate body, and her slender legs He restlessly stretched out his hook-like, natural soles and gently rubbed the back of a muscular man in front of him who was dripping with sweat. His voice was sultry to the core: "Today There is no need to leave in such a hurry, friend, how about staying one night?! Your father is not here, he has gone to Qinghe, maybe to check if there is a shelter in your fief, where you can collect more taxes. . Tell me, what gift will you give me when you have more money in the future?"
