Chapter 951 Execution of 2,000 People in One Breath(1/2)

When Zhao Kuo was speaking, there was a clear murderous intent in his eyes.

For a famous general like him, killing people is just a very ordinary thing.

Those Wei officials who were jumping up and down in Daliang City, wanting to find ways to put public opinion pressure on these nobles, never expected that they were not the softer style of Maibo, but the fire like a volcano erupting like Zhao Kuo.

In just one day, the Zhao army was running back and forth everywhere in Daliang City. Under the leadership of the Zhao officials from Maibo, they attacked everywhere, arrested all the Wei officials on the list and brought them into prison.

As a result, the entire Daliang City suddenly became more and more shocking.

Countless rumors began to circulate in every corner of Daliang City, and various speculations emerged one after another. Some people even said that Zhao Kuo planned to close the city gate and massacre all the people in the entire city.

If it is under normal circumstances, this is exactly the riots that the nobles of the country want to see. They can take this opportunity to incite the panic of the people and turn them into a large uprising that will affect the entire city.

But the problem now is that these nobles and officials are all locked up in prison, completely lost contact with the outside world, and have no ability to mobilize the people.

When there is no leader, the people are just a mess.

In addition, Zhao Kuo ordered that all the soldiers of Zhao State in the city patrol the main streets day and night, and would kill all those who ran around on the spot.

In this way, this iron-blooded policy immediately shocked everyone in Daliang City.

One night passed without any danger in a very tense atmosphere.

Among the big bosses, the nobles of Wei were still communicating across the fence of the prison cells.

The voice that had always seemed very calm, this time it was not calm enough, and began to complain about other accomplices.

"I told you a long time ago that it is not a good time to provoke Wu Xinjun, but you just have to act against the wind. Now, everyone has been arrested in prison. Let's see what you will do next!"

As soon as these words were spoken, the rough voice suddenly became unhappy and immediately retorted: "When everyone made a decision, I didn't see you objecting. Now you are here again, what's the point?

If I ask me, Zhao Kuo could not really kill all so many people at once, and there is still a turning point in this matter."

Another very stable voice spoke, "Didn't you notice that a large group of people have been arrested tonight?"

I feel that this matter is already very bad, I hope God can bless you."

While talking, this steady voice inevitably trembled a little.

After these words, the entire cell suddenly fell silent.

At this time, they were actually very clear about the whole situation. Now it is the so-called "people are the slaughter and I am the fish". So what will happen now is Zhao Kuo's initiative.

This night passed by the uneasiness of these Wei nobles.

Day 2.

At noon, these nobles were taken out directly by countless Zhao soldiers and came to the door of the vegetable market.

The entrance of the vegetable market has always been the place with the most traffic in Daliang City. After all, everyone has to eat, so everyone has to buy vegetables. This principle has been applicable from ancient times to the present.

The nobles of Wei State became more and more uneasy when they watched this scene, because they suddenly found that they were just at the door of the vegetable market, and there were some unknown time when many wooden shelves had been hung.

It didn't take much imagination, and these nobles of Wei could realize that the wooden frames should be used to hang corpses.

So the question is, whose body should be hung on?

The answer to this question is even simpler.

Behind the group of wooden frames, there was a temporary platform, Zhao Kuo and Mai Bo, the governor of Dang County. The two of them sat on the platform and watched the scene.

Mai Bo couldn't help but speak and said to Zhao Kuo: "Wu Xinjun, do we really want to kill so many people at once?"

It can be seen that Mai Bo is indeed an official with a very gentle personality. Even Zhao Kuo had already said it very clearly yesterday, but at this time, Mai Bo still wanted to try to see if he could plead with mercy.

Zhao Kuo shook his head and said to Mai Bo very calmly: "Marrior Mai Bo, you still have no grasp of the fundamental reason behind the matter. At this point, even if I really want to let them go, they will not reconcile with us again.

The result of letting them go is that they will continue to lead the people in Daliang City to resist us in the future, and it is likely to be the most violent uprising."

After hearing what Zhao Kuo said, Mai Bo was stunned again. After a while, he couldn't help but sigh.

"Why is this? It's all my fault for duty!"

Zhao Kuo looked at Mai Bo's regretful appearance and slowly shook his head.

Zhao Kuo can actually understand Mai Bo's mentality very well.

After all, Mai Bo has been in Jinyang City for a long time, and has taken a look at the relationship between officials and the people of Zhao. So after Mai Bo came to Daliang City, he subconsciously wanted to copy the relationship between officials and people in Jinyang.

But the problem is that Daliang City is not Jinyang City. The people here were from Wei not long ago, so the relationship could not be as close as the former capital of Zhao State in Jinyang City.

Zhao Kuo glanced at Su Li beside him and asked Su Li: "Have everyone's identities clear? "

Su Li nodded and said, "A total of 2,138 people, all of which have been experienced. There are still about 200 people on the run. They are now actively pursuing them."

Zhao Kuo nodded after hearing this, but was not angry about it.

After all, this is Daliang City, the former capital of Wei State, and the Zhao army only has about 10,000 people. It is no problem to be able to control this city, but it is impossible to completely control it with all the tightest. It is normal for some fish that miss the net.

So Zhao Kuo looked up at the sky and found that it was almost noon. He said, "Then there is no need to wait any longer. Now I will execute these prisoners immediately!"

Su Li received the order from Zhao Kuo, immediately took two steps forward, and said loudly to everyone present: "The king has a life, and all the prisoners committed the betrayal of Zhao State, deliberately inducing the price of food to increase, thereby inciting the people to restore the crime of treason in Wei State. Today, all of them were beheaded and displayed in public to respect and behave!"

After Su Li said this, the many Wei people who were watching the fun were immediately in an uproar.

"Are you mistaken? You actually want to kill so many people?"

"I didn't expect that there were so many people who wanted to restore the Wei Kingdom in this city. It was really respectable and lamentable!"

"It's awesome, it's a shame. If these people weren't all about making trouble, then this food crisis wouldn't have happened. We were almost starved to death by them. Do you still admire them here?"

Most of the people in Daliang City were not very satisfied with Zhao Kuo's decision, but some people applauded.

These people who applauded were those who were hungry because they had no money to buy food during the previous food crisis. Now they were very happy to see these merchants and nobles who raised the price of food being beheaded.

On the other hand, the nobles and subordinates of the nobles who were about to be beheaded were completely panicked after hearing this order.

When they were arrested at the beginning, these nobles actually had some luck in their hearts, thinking that Zhao Kuo would not kill so many people in one breath.

But they obviously ignored Zhao Kuo's determination, and even more forgot that Zhao Kuo was a famous general who won every battle. In the past decade, the lives of more than 1 million soldiers from other countries had been destroyed in Zhao Kuo's hands.

For Zhao Kuo, how difficult is it to kill him with just over 2,000 people?

Seeing the dozens of nobles in the front being dragged towards the executioner, these people were completely panicked.

"Give me your life, I'm willing to hand over all my property, just spare my life!"

"I am willing to tell you all the information that those who want to betray Zhao and restore Wei will have their names in my head. As long as you are willing to let me go, I will say it all!"

"Give me your life. As long as I am willing to spare my life, I will do anything. I will be a Zhao native in the future and I will never have any rebellious intentions!"

In the face of very close death, these Wei nobles were obviously very panicked and completely exposed their true face of being greedy for life and fear of death.

He did not mean that every nobleman of Wei was afraid of death. Some people laughed at the sky and cursed Zhao Kuo.

"Wu Xinjun Zhao Kuo, you butcher with blood on your hands, one day you will suffer retribution!"

"Zhao Kuo, today I will take the lead. I will be on the road to the underworld in the future. Please wait for me!"

After hearing these abuses against Zhao Kuo, the soldiers of Zhao State were immediately angry.

You should know that for all Zhao Kuo soldiers, Zhao Kuo is the invincible god in their minds.

So these Zhao soldiers also broke out, cursing and dragging the prisoner directly to the executioner, and then lifted the butcher's knife high.

After a command, dozens of heads fell to the ground at the same time, and the smell of blood immediately floated in the air.

The world suddenly became quiet.

Everyone was watching this scene quietly, and different thoughts were spinning in everyone's mind.

But the only thing that can be confirmed is that from now on, Daliang City is destined to be different from before.

One corpse after another began to be kicked down by the executioners, and one head after another fell from the neck.

The smell of blood became more and more intense, and even the onlookers of Wei retreated a lot without realizing it.

Mai Bo's body began to tremble as he looked at this scene.

You should know that Mai Bo has been working as a civil servant for so many years, and has not been to the battlefield for a long time. This scene has had a great impact on him.

Zhao Kuo was very calm when he said that. After all, Zhao Kuo had fought for so many years, and the number of deaths in any war was not more than tens of thousands, so this number was not a big deal.

Zhao Kuo spoke to Mai Bo calmly and said, "I have done the things that Maibo County Maibo has offended for you. It is your turn to do the next thing to soothe people's hearts.

I hope you can do this well, otherwise the county magistrate of Dang County will have to change one person."

Zhao Kuo did not choose to remove Mai Bo from his post immediately. On the one hand, Mai Bo's ability is indeed there, but he did not use it well.

On the other hand, Mai Bo is Zhao Kuo's person. If you remove Mai Bo at this time, wouldn't it be like taking the initiative to show weakness to Mr. Zhou?

So Zhao Kuo would not do this either.

After hearing Zhao Kuo's words, Mai Bo could only nod his head mechanically.

This execution continues.

Wailing, screaming, begging for mercy, crying, all kinds of sounds kept ringing in the air.

However, none of these voices could stop Zhao Kuo's orders, nor could they stop the Zhao people from rule over this land.

Although this land does belong to the Huaxia people, the Huaxia people have indeed been separated for too long in the past thousand years.

As a time traveler, Zhao Kuo felt that all the seven heroes of the Warring States Period should be their own people, but among the seven vassal states of this era, many people did not think so.
