The new book of the burning prairie star

Chapter 270 If you don't obey orders, Liu Ji will end up like this

"Oh, then what do you want to do?" Yang Biao met his gaze. He had thirteen masters guarding him, each of them was capable of fighting one against a hundred. How could they be afraid of him?

"I said, we don't want to leave the military camp." Liu Ji drew the knife from his waist. Anyway, he had killed enough officials, so this one wouldn't be a big deal.

With a "clang" sound, at the critical moment, Zhang Zhanfei stepped forward and broke the knife that was about to hit Yang Biao.

"How dare you to assassinate the Northern Governor!" Zhang Zhanfei turned his head to look at Yang Biao, and seeing him nod, he killed Liu Ji with a sword.

"Liu Ji disobeyed military orders and attempted to assassinate me. His head is now hung on the military tent. The soldiers of Guangshu Prefecture must leave the barracks today. If they disobey orders, this will be Liu Ji's fate!"

The original soldiers either died or took the severance pay and left. After Yang Biao issued the ultimatum, he jumped on the horse beside him and left.

"Mei Yongle, you are responsible for training the new recruits in Guangshu Prefecture." Yang Biao still adopted the model of veterans leading new recruits, hoping that the new recruits could grow up quickly.

"Yes, master!" Although Mei Yongle and the others had already escaped from slavery, they were still used to calling him master.

"Well, in their spare time, the soldiers can be asked to farm the land."

The most urgent task at the moment is to send troops to grow food first. The winter in the north is very cold, and the problem of food for the winter must be solved.

People in ancient times believed that fallen leaves would return to their roots, and once the situation stabilized, their owners would naturally come back, allowing them to take back their land with the land contracts in their hands.

If the five provincial cities want to develop, social security must be resolved to ensure the safety and order of these provincial cities before other possibilities can be discussed.

Yang Biao spent the following days traveling between the five prefectures to urge the former soldiers to return to their hometowns, and the new recruits also began training, and in their free time they were allowed to farm the fields.

"Master, Shi Rui is here!" Yang Biao dealt with the aftermath of the retired soldiers in Beigao Prefecture and left the government office. He was going to rest in the house he had bought.

"Oh, where is he?" Since he was here, Xia Weiwei must be here too. Yang Biao hurriedly ran towards him.

"Sir, the lady is waiting for you at the inn." Shi Rui, who came here on orders, didn't waste any words and rode his horse in front to lead the way.

"Husband," Xia Weiwei was fidgeting and had been waiting for him at the door of the inn. When she saw him riding towards her on horseback from a distance, she immediately ran towards him.

"Whoa," seeing her rushing over, Yang Biao hurriedly tightened the reins, and the horse under him immediately stood up.

"Madam, you..." You would get hurt if you ran off the horse like this, but seeing her looking up at him affectionately, Yang Biao no longer wanted to preach. He got off the horse, carried her onto the horse's back, and then climbed back on.

"Wenbin, take Shi Rui and the others to the house on Wangping Road. I'm leaving first." Yang Biao asked Gui Wenbin to stay, and he took Xia Weiwei back first. Zhang Zhanfei and the others hurriedly followed to protect them.

After not seeing each other for over a month, the two lovers returned to his house, and naturally they had to compete physically first.

"Husband, why did you kill Xiang and Wen?" After many confrontations, Xia Weiwei raised the question that had been weighing on her mind for many days.

This was a very unwise thing to do, but it was a serious crime punishable by death. Although it had happened so long ago and Emperor Tianqi had not yet issued an imperial decree to investigate her for the crime of deceiving the emperor, she did not want such a thing to happen again in the future.

She was not afraid of death, but she was absolutely unwilling to put her three sons in danger.

"The situation was critical at the time. If I hadn't done this, what you would be seeing now would be my dead body."

Yang Biao kissed her forehead apologetically and told her everything that happened that day in detail.

"The emperor has not issued an edict, which means he has not pursued the matter, but I want my husband to promise me that he will think twice before doing anything next time, okay?"

Xia Weiwei looked at his face which had become thin due to being busy these days, and hugged him with a little heartache.

"Okay, madam, your husband promises you!" The effect of killing Xiang and Wen and intimidating Hejian Prefecture, Guangshu Prefecture, Beigao Prefecture, Sifang Prefecture, and Mulin Prefecture has been achieved. There is no need to kill people without notifying the emperor.

"Madam, are you hungry?" Yang Biao heard the noises coming from her stomach and hurriedly got up and put on his clothes.

"Madam, wait for your husband to make you something to eat." Before leaving, Yang Biao kissed her.

"Sir Shen, do you think this Yang Biao knows something?" The two prefects who had stayed in a house in an unknown place for nearly twenty days were released from house arrest tonight. Wei Yangke met him when he came out and asked.

"Be careful, there may be ears on the other side of the wall!" Shen Chi, the prefect of Sifang Prefecture, looked around nervously. He was not afraid of being locked up again, but he was afraid of himself.

"My lords, by the order of the emperor, we are here to bring your families to the capital for investigation." At this moment, Xie Fang appeared in front of them with a large number of imperial guards.

"Ah?" Shen Chi collapsed to the ground. He didn't say anything in there. He looked at Wei Yangke with ferocious eyes. This person must have told everything.

He later found out that it was Xiang Honglin's son Xiang Wu who confessed their corruption and bribery in order to save his own life. However, Xiang Honglin did not tell his son that several soldiers in the capital city were pretending to be bandits, otherwise they would have been beheaded long ago and there would be no chance of them being taken to the capital.

"Take them away!" After locking both of them in the prison car, Xie Fang rode his horse at the front of the team.

In recent years, the north has been hit by either drought or floods. The occurrence of natural disasters has led to population decline, and the lives of ordinary people are already miserable enough.

These people did not focus on improving people's livelihood and welfare, but instead engaged in corruption and bribery, making the situation in the north chaotic and turbulent. Local peasants revolted, which led to long-term frequent riots, social unrest and economic decline.

The common people had no land to farm, and in order to survive, a large number of people chose to flee. During the exile, material shortages caused the body's immunity to decline, and epidemics were prone to occur, resulting in a large number of exiled people dying in a foreign land.

"Sir Dai, Wei Yangke and Shen Chi have been captured by the Imperial Guards and put into a prison van and taken to the capital." After seeing them leave the city gate, the leader of the patrolling city guards came to report to Dai Xuming, the governor of Beigao Prefecture.

"Xu Ze, what do you think Yang Biao will do next?" He dismissed all the original soldiers in the army and recruited new soldiers into the barracks. Now the barracks in the five prefectures are all new faces.

"Brother-in-law, do you think he knew something?" Xu Ze is the younger brother of Dai Xuming's wife, and he was promoted by him to become the leader of the city patrol guards.

"He probably doesn't know, otherwise how could the court be so gentle towards Wei and Shen." If Emperor Tianqi knew what those soldiers had done, he would have chopped off their heads long ago and would not have bothered to bring them to the capital for trial.

"Brother-in-law, we can't just wait to die here, can we?" Yang Biao is now concentrating on sending soldiers to the five prefectures to make fertilizer and grow crops. If the autumn rice planting season is over, will he have time to investigate other things?

"Xu Ze, let's do something for him quietly." He couldn't do it too blatantly. He killed Xiang and Wen, and such a long time had passed, but the court had not punished him.

Therefore, it fully demonstrates that the emperor gave him the golden order, which gave him the power to execute first and report later.
