Eliminate the Disease

In the study, Hu You looked at the list of spies obtained from Chen Mengjie and remained silent for a long time. After a few hours, his angry heart gradually calmed down, but this did not mean that he would let these people go. More than a hundred people mixed with officials at all levels. As long as they had any abnormal movements, they would bring a catastrophe to Baoning City.

It is certain that the elimination of traitors is when is the one in front of Hu You now? Should I wait until my direct army, the Immortal Legion, arrives before taking action, or do it now.

If the Immortal Legion comes, then you will have to wait at least ten days. In these ten days, will these spies receive the news and do something?

Will it cause any trouble if you don’t wait for the Immortal Legion and use Baoning’s troops directly? You should know that many of these spies have been in Baoning for many years, and their various relationships are complicated. Some people may still have the handle of others in their hands. Once they take action, someone will definitely come out to plead with them. Now they only have a few close friends here. Once they unite, even if they are Immortal, they will not be able to suppress them.

After all, the safest way is to wait for the arrival of the Immortal Legion and deal with these spies. The order given to Hou San was one month, and fifteen days have passed. In another fifteen days, Hou San will definitely be able to bring the Immortal Legion to arrive. At that time, there are three main combat divisions in his hand, and no one dares to act rashly.

But it is also a bit troublesome to deal with the spy's problem when the Immortal Legion arrives. That is, will the Immortal Legion kill people when it first arrives, and will it seem too murderous? Besides, does the Immortal Hu You have to have a large number of soldiers beside you before you dare to act? Doesn't there be a large number of soldiers guarding you, even if you know there are spies, you dare not take action?

Behind Hu You, a little girl with a slightly delicate voice sounded: "Master, why don't Feng Yin go and help you solve it."

The one who spoke was Feng Yin, one of the four shadows of the dark night. Now Hu You is the only one in the study, and she doesn't need to hide her body, so she stands behind Hu You.

Hu You turned his head to look at the 16-year-old girl with good development and smiled and said, "How do you plan to help me solve it?"

Feng Yin said as expected: "Just kill them. They annoyed the young master and deserve to die."

Feng Yin said this very simply. In her eyes, there was no one except Hu You. She would not care about anyone's life or death. This may be a bit cold-blooded, but it is normal. You cannot ask a person who has been away from the crowd since he was born, and until now, has too many feelings. Because they have never experienced so many feelings with him. If she opens her mouth, it would be abnormal.

Hu You patted his shoulder and said, "Feng Yin, you don't understand some things. Killing is sometimes not that simple. There are things related to all aspects of it."

Hu You patted his shoulders, which meant that Feng Yin helped him rub his slightly sore shoulder. The wounds left on Chen Mengjie on his left shoulder were almost healed, but sometimes they were still a little unnatural. When training the Siying of the Dark Night, Defu considered their maids' role, so he let them learn something that the maids should know. In this regard, Siying's technique is quite good. Especially when the four of them were doing the same, the feeling was really intoxicating.

Feng Yin leaned up very well and gently rubbed Hu You with a pair of small hands. Without pressing it twice, Hua Song, Xue Ti, and Yue Ming also leaned against Hu You's side, and massaged the places that were not injured. They knew that Hu You liked this feeling.

Feng Yin put Hu You's hand on his body, rubbed Hu You's left shoulder and said, "Master, can you teach us how to get along with others? We four sisters have been away from the crowd since we were young and don't know a lot of things."

Hua Song and his friends also looked at Hu You. It is difficult for people who have not experienced their growth path to understand that they are panic about interpersonal communication in their hearts. In addition to being close to Hu You, they don’t know how to face other people. Invisibility is also a kind of hiding for them in fact.

Yu nodded gently. For Siying, he had an indescribable feeling in his heart. He was also a quadruplet, and the four girls in the Sun Ri had a rich life, each with their own strengths, and had seen many worlds. Siying was as simple as a piece of white paper. Although they had special abilities that others did not possess, more often, they had too many things like children, which they did not know.

Seeing Hu You nodding, all four shadows showed excited smiles. Humans are group animals, and it is human nature to communicate with people. They also want to participate in this world, rather than just being a bystander.

Hu You sorted out his thoughts and said, "Let me tell you a story. In the future, as long as I have time, I will tell you a story every day. You can absorb what you need from the story."

In the study, there is only Hu You's voice. The stories he mentioned actually talk about his own growth experience. His life has only been only twenty-two years, but the wonderful things he has experienced are things that many people have never experienced in their entire lives.

Story can educate people, often reflecting on one's past can make one know oneself more clearly. When Hu You taught Fengyin how the four of them were doing things, he gradually came out of the situation of worrying about gains and losses. He found a way to deal with spies - killing.

There are not so many things that need to be taken care of. What was revealed in front of the people before was a humble and loving side of the people, using scattered scatters and inappropriate expression of their ruthless side, and then more similar situations will occur in the future. As for those who want to take the opportunity to cause trouble, let them jump out.

Bao Ning still has many unstable factors now. Since there is this opportunity, it might as well solve it together.

The next day, Hu You issued a conscription order, and among the citizens of Baoning, he recruited 10,000 soldiers. These soldiers Hu You called them soldiers and were regarded as reserve soldiers of the Immortal Legion.

Hu You thought about the spy problem, and you can't wait for the Immortal Bird Legion to deal with it. There are 200,000 enemy troops outside the city. If they come to make a big fuss, they will cause trouble. In order to prevent the officials in the city, they secretly colluded with each other. Hu You decided this time, without using the soldiers from Yuanbaoning City, the people in the city would do this.

With Hu You's prestige in Baoning, it was not too difficult to conquer 10,000 soldiers. Even though this time the troops were not the soldiers of the Immortal Legion, they were still following. In just one day, they had already conquered 10,000 soldiers.

These ten thousand soldiers were all strong men who performed well in Baoning's battle. The people's eyes were bright, and whoever was good or bad, just ask a few more people and you will know. Baoning is their home, and his wife, children and young people live here. It is not certain whether they love the Mandala Empire or not, but they love Baoning. Therefore, there is absolutely no problem with loyalty in this ten thousand soldiers.

Because there were still 200,000 troops outside the city, Hu You's recruitment did not arouse some people's alertness. No one would have thought that in such an environment, Hu You would actually launch a cleanup.

Although the ten thousand soldiers were not trained, they were all brave and had an extremely enthusiastic attitude towards Hu You. Hu You gathered them together, gave them a brief lecture, and sent them a list of spies they had already copied.

With a command, the entire Bao Ning started to move.

"The young marshal, except for three of them who committed suicide, all of them were arrested." Xuan Ri reported to Hu Youhui.

Chen Mengjie gave Hu You a list of more than 100 people, but how did it become 208 people? The rest were naturally added by Hu You.

During this period, Hu You often walked among the people and heard many complaints from the people. The dozens of people who were extra were officials who had bullied the people. The first was Huang Zutong, who was not in the regular meeting. When Huang Zutong was guarding the new city lord's mansion in the former city, he forcibly requisitioned the people's land, demolished the houses, and made a lot of money. This time, he did not appear on Chen Mengjie's list, but Hu You decided to treat him as a spy.

"Very good." Hu You nodded with satisfaction. He was very satisfied with this action. These soldiers really had the spirit of being a newborn calf not afraid of tigers. They were much stronger than those defenders in the city. It seemed that choosing to use them was a good decision.

Seeing Wu Xuewen's thoughtful look, Hu You couldn't help but ask: "Wu Xuewen, do you think there is any problem?"

Wu Xuewen said: "Young Marshal. I was thinking that it would be a big project to arrest so many people at once. Moreover, the people in charge of the interrogation are familiar with them, so there may be something wrong with it."

Hu You smiled in his heart and said: Wu Xuewen is good at everything, but some nerds sometimes don’t know how to adapt and like to follow the procedures. This is his advantage, but it is also his disadvantage. His trick is very good in peacetime, but at this time, it is a bit redundant.

Hu You shook his head and said, "You don't need a headache for this matter, I don't plan to interrogate them."

"No?" Wu Xuewen was stunned for a moment and asked, "The Young Marshal plans to lock them up first?"

Hu You said: "This fort would rather not have so much food to support them and behead them directly."

"Beheaded" Wu Xuewen's face changed.

Hu You snorted coldly and asked, "Some of these people should not be beheaded?"

Wu Xuewen said: "The words are good. If the sentence of the country is sentenced to death, there is nothing to say. But the young marshal sentenced these more than 200 people to death based on Chen Mengjie's list. Will it be arbitrary? I'm afraid that there will be any mistakes in killing this."

Hu You was silent for a while, got up and came to Wu Xuewen's side, patted Wu Xuewen on the shoulder, and said, "Now is an extraordinary period. If you do extraordinary things in an extraordinary period, you will leave a hidden danger. You would rather kill by mistake than let go by mistake."

Wu Xuewen was also a smart person, and he immediately understood what Hu You meant. He knew that Hu You's move was a trick of killing more birds. Among these 208 people, not all spies were spies. Hu You wanted to use the name of eliminating spies to destroy those who hindered the development of Bao Ning.

Although Hu You's methods were a little more ruthless, they would definitely be beneficial to the future development of Baoning. Although Wu Xuewen felt that Hu You's approach was a bit exaggerated, he did not object.

As soon as Wu Xuewen finished speaking, Du Changwei rushed in in a hurry. He hurriedly saluted and asked, "Young Marshal, I heard that you ordered the arrest of more than 200 spies?"

Seeing Du Changwei coming so anxiously, Hu You thought to himself that there was a close friend among these people, and he rushed to plead for mercy.

Hu You thought of this and felt a little unhappy, but he did not reveal it. He let the chair go and said, "Mr. Du, don't worry, if you have anything to do, let's talk about it slowly. Na Yue and serve tea to Mr. Du."

Du Changwei thanked him and took a few breaths and said, "After the young marshal came to Baoning, he did a series of things, fighting against the enemy outside and calming the people's hearts inside, are all very good. I am also very impressed." Du Changwei said this, took a breath and continued, "But now it is the time when the Three Kingdoms coalition forces are besieging the city, the young marshal suddenly arrested 208 people among the military and civilians, which seems inappropriate.

If you don’t say anything else, just talk about Huang Zutong. Although this man is domineering, he also made great efforts when the enemy attacked the city. At that time, there was a danger in the East City, and he personally led the army to eliminate the danger. He should not be a spy. Will there be any misunderstandings in this?"

Hu You glanced at Du Changwei coldly. He had guessed before that Du Changwei must have come to plead for mercy. But he never expected that Du Changwei was here to plead for Huang Zutong. No wonder this old guy is not popular in the imperial capital circle. It's so pedantic and doesn't know how to use the situation at all.

Yes, Huang Zutong is indeed not on Chen Mengjie's list, but this person has been a guardian of Baoning for more than 20 years. His various relationships are very complicated and his reputation among the people is very bad. Leaving this person is definitely a great disadvantage to Baoning's future development.

Now that he has the opportunity, if he doesn't eliminate him, it will be very difficult to wipe him out in the future. He has heavy troops and has many connections with the noble merchants in the city. In addition, Du Changwei said that Huang Zutong performed very well in this city guarding the city. If such a person does not kill now, can he still kill after the enemy retreats? The young master is paving the way for you to better manage Baoning in the future. Can you even see such a simple thing?

Hu You suppressed his dissatisfaction and turned to Xuan Ri and said, "Go and bring the letter of the people."

The sun left in response to the sound, and a few minutes later, he came back with a stack of letters. These were all given to Hu You when he was in contact with the people.

Flies do not bite seamless eggs. Although Hu You did not check the matters recorded in the entrustment, he knew that Huang Zutong must have problems.

The common people have always been the kindest group. They are not forced to do such things. Besides, not one or two people handed over such a lawsuit. There are nearly fifty letters in Guangxuan Ri's hands, and more than two hundred people signed with real names. Isn't this enough to explain the problem?

Hu You always knew that to investigate some officials’ problems, there was no need for government officials. As long as you go to the people and ask the people, you would know everything. Although they are weak, their hearts are like bright mirrors and are not so easy to cheat.

Du Changwei took the letter of surrender from Xuan Ri, read a few letters, and then put it down. He shook his head and sighed, "I have heard of the matter in this letter of surrender. I have sent someone to investigate it secretly and learned that some of these things are indeed true. But Huang Zutong did not judge the country. Isn't it appropriate for the young marshal to make a treason and collude with the enemy?"

Hu You shook his head and said, "Mr. Du, there is nothing wrong with this matter. Fish and meat and treason are all acts that endanger the empire and the people. Although the crimes are different, they are actually the same thing.

You don’t need to say more about this matter, I have made a decision. Doing so will benefit Baoning and the people. The people will only praise and will not complain."

Du Changwei asked: "What will the young marshal plan to deal with Huang Zutong."

Hu You said coldly: "Treasoning for the enemy, killing without mercy"

Du Changwei knew that Hu You's decision could not be changed, but he still asked with some concern: "What if Huang Zu and his men rebel?"

Hu You sneered and said, "If they dare, let them try it."

The execution was personally presided over by Hu You. The place he chose was the most lively East Cross Street in Baoning. More than 200 criminals were lined up and kneeled on the street. The scene was very spectacular. I believe many people will never forget such a scene in their lifetime.

Seeing Huang Zutong kneeling on the execution ground, cheers suddenly broke out in the crowd, and the people applauded and ran around to tell each other. As for whether Huang Zutong was colluding with the enemy, they didn't care.

"kill"

After Hu You read out his crime, he threw out the Immortal Bird Golden Order with his right hand. 208 swords and axes were already ready. At the same time, he spewed out the strong wine from the steel knife in his hand. He raised his hand and fell, and blood flowers dyed the street red.

Within one day, 208 heads fell to the ground, which surprised the entire military and civilians of Baoning. Many people only realized that the young marshal who was always happy among the people had a cruel side.

Later historians criticized Hu You for his practice of killing him without judging the law. However, they had to admit that only by doing this can we solve the problem as soon as possible in a chaotic world.
