Chapter 963 Execution

Wang Han, courtesy name Chuhong, was Wang Dun's elder brother and Wang Dao's cousin. There were four brothers in their group, and he was the stupidest, most ignorant, most stubborn, and most vicious.

She only relied on the power of Director Wang and Wang Dun to become the governor of Xuzhou, and she hasn't admitted it yet.

Because he was ferocious and cruel and ineffective in governing, Zhao Hanzhang started from Xuzhou. Liu Kun went to Xuzhou and brought not only the letter of appointment but also the letter of dismissal of Wang Han.

She never thought of trying his crimes. She originally planned to drive him out of Xuzhou and force him to go to Yangzhou to cause trouble for Director Wang and Wang Dun, but now she changed her mind.

Zhao Hanzhang called the civil servants and ordered: "Prepare two thousand cavalry, one man and two cavalry, and three days of dry food. I will need it before noon tomorrow."

The civil servant agreed, bowed and retreated to prepare.

Zhao Hanzhang went to Fu Tinghan and said to him: "I have to return to Yuzhou immediately."

"Are you worried about changes in Yuzhou? Didn't Uncle Qianli lead the army back to Yanzhou?" Fu Tinghan said: "There are also Liu Kun and Zeng Yue, they are in Xuzhou."

Yanzhou and Xuzhou are both very close to Yuzhou. If there is a change in Yuzhou, they will be able to rush to help immediately.

Zhao Hanzhang said: "I'm worried that the chaos will start from within."

"The young emperor and Uncle Ming are both in Meng County, and Xun Xiu is also in Meng County," Zhao Hanzhang said: "Although I don't think anyone can overthrow me in a short time, I don't want innocent sacrifices."

Fu Tinghan failed to understand for a moment, "Wouldn't Xun Xiu be safer in Meng County?"

"In the past, and now, Xun Xiu and Uncle Ming are not on good terms, and the Xun family army will be frightened and resentful after being defeated," Zhao Hanzhang said: "I have written a letter back to Meng County, asking Uncle Ming to be careful and at the same time appease Xun. Xiu, let’s talk about it after I get back.”

The premise is that she can catch up, or Xun Xiu can stick to the bottom line and not be provoked.

But to be honest, Zhao Hanzhang didn't trust Xun Xiu very much in her heart. It should be said that she didn't trust people in this era very much.

This is a very strange era. Loyal people are too loyal, but only a small number of people, the vast majority of people, have inexplicable ambitions, do whatever they say, and are very generous.

This was a little insight she picked up in the library.

Fu Tinghan naturally believed in her more, so he said, "Then you should be careful along the way. I will follow with an army."

Zhao Hanzhang then smiled and said, "Don't worry, I will be very strict."

By the afternoon, Zhao Kuan and Zeng Yue were back. After Wang Heng captured Bixian and Yuncheng, only a few hundred people were left to control the county government to control the county people. Therefore, when they led the army to recover, the two The county seat was quickly captured.

There were even people who responded from inside and helped open the city gate.

It can be seen that even though Zhao Jiashi and Zhao Yicheng have been in office for half a month, they are not without public support at all.

Zhao Kuan imprisoned the bandit leader Wang Heng and his family, as well as several of Wang Heng's confidants.

Zhao Hanzhang did not let them enter the city, but tried them outside the city.

Not only did more than 20,000 rebel prisoners serve as spectators, there were also many ordinary people who went out of the city to watch.

Zhao Hanzhang walked up to the Wang clan leader, threw two pieces of paper in front of him, and asked, "When the two of them went to talk to Wang Heng, was the Wang clan leader also with them?"

Wang Cheng was dripping with cold sweat and said quickly: "Although I am here, I don't know the details. I just think that they are Wang Heng's friends outside. The clan does not know about his rebellion."

"That's not what Shi Bai and Gao Tong said." Zhao Hanzhang looked up at the kneeling people, pointed at the corpse hanging on the tower and said, "They wanted to use force to force me, but they died. You want to sit back and enjoy the gains. Today I I can also tell you the results.”

The three leaders, Wang Heng, Wang Ba and Zuo Yao, their household heads and clan leaders were all sentenced to death. All males aged fourteen and above were sentenced to three years of long-term service, with ninety days of service required each year.

The soldiers followed the order and arrested five people, including the fathers of the three people and the heads of the Wang and Zuo families.

Wang Cheng was prepared to die on the way here. He even thought that the whole clan was going to be destroyed. After all, it was defined as a rebellion. A few years ago, when was the Sima family involved in rebellion and mutiny, but was it not a killing of one clan by one clan?

Before the incident, he felt that Wang Heng's calculation was right. Zhao Hanzhang was a woman who was soft-hearted. She had a reputation for benevolence. As long as Wang Heng surrendered in time, Zhao Hanzhang would treat them well. After all, she had always given people the impression that Yes, as long as she surrenders, she will treat the other party well.

He didn't expect that Zhao Hanzhang would be so tough this time. Although he accepted Wang Heng's surrender, he killed people on the spot and killed so many people.

At this time, he couldn't help but burst into tears and breathed a sigh of relief when he heard that he was only being blamed and not the entire clan was annihilated.

But the breath dissipated as the rope was put around his neck, leaving only fear in his heart.

The knowledgeable Wang Cheng was like this, let alone other people. Zuo's father struggled violently and shouted: "I don't recognize Zuo Yao, my son. I don't recognize him. Chief, remove Zuo Yao from his name, general." Spare your life, General, spare your life..."

The voice resounded through the sky. From yesterday to now, the prisoners could only eat the dry food they had on them. At this time, their eyes were confused but frightened, and they trembled slightly when they heard the voice.

Zhao Hanzhang didn't say anything, just stood and watched indifferently.

The people of the three tribes were trembling and crying. Those who knew about the rebellion felt fear and regret in their hearts. Those who didn't knew resented Wang Heng and others, as well as his family and clan leader, thinking that they had failed to control Wang Heng well. , causing them to go astray and causing harm to themselves.

Zu Ti was relieved when he heard Zhao Hanzhang's verdict, and said to Zhao Shizuo Min: "Although the general is angry, he is still restrained."

Zuo Min felt that Zhao Hanzhang was too kind and was dissatisfied and said: "The general should kill them all to set an example."

Zu Ti glanced at him disapprovingly and said, "These corpses hanging on the tower are enough to shock you."

Zuo Min didn't think so and said, "If we don't want to cause people to cause chaos again, we must make them fearful."

Zhao Shi disagreed and said: "The general has always been kind and should govern the people with virtue. It is an accident that she will implicate so many people this time. It is enough to shock people."

"Hmph, I'm afraid that when people outside see how small the price is, their minds will still wander. I'm afraid that war disasters will continue in the future."

Zhao Shi: "Then the clan leader must not hesitate to die. A clan leader will die for one person. How many clan leaders in the world have such a desire for perfection?"

Zuo Min frowned and thought about his words. Seeing Zu Ti's expression of agreement, he asked, "Does the general also think that this move can deter those who are interested?"

Zu Ti said: "Not only is the clan leader implicated, but all the men in the clan will serve for ninety days. Don't underestimate these ninety days. If this matter spreads, no one in ordinary people's homes will dare to rebel easily."

Who knows how many people will die if they cut their flesh with a dull knife for ninety days a year when they can't be substituted?

After three years, they will not resent Zhao Hanzhang for sparing their lives, but will only hate Wang Heng and the people who encouraged them to rebel even more.

Zhao Hanzhang had no intention of covering up for Wang Han and Jiang Dong. She said to Zu Ti: "After finding out the matter, make it public and advertise it to the world, so that interested people can weigh the pros and cons."

Zu Ti agreed and asked: "Does the general still use Shi Bai and Gao Tong?"

"No need, just give them a good time."

Later, because Shi Bai and Gao Tong were secretive when answering some questions, they were cut off a few more pieces of flesh. They asked the executioner to collect two buckets of food. Although the bleeding stopped, the situation was not good.

Zhao Hanzhang didn't even think about sparing their lives, he just wanted them to die in a less painful way.

I had a fall yesterday. I came back from the hospital and was in so much pain that I forgot to ask for leave.
