Chapter 138 Change

"What are you doing? I am Suiyang Order. You dare to trespass the yamen office. Do you know that this is a death sentence? " Liang State, Suiyang, Order. Early in the morning, the Suiyang Order had just woken up when he saw a group of people suddenly break into the yamen office and stopped him without saying a word.

A young scholar came out and took out an edict and said loudly: "Liang Guang, the commander of Suiyang, during his tenure, there were three villages who missed the murder case. After verification, one of them was an unintentional mistake. One of the two villages secretly accepted bribes, and the other was to shelter the son of a friend. This was a crime. During his tenure, he took possession of property, not salaries or income from his family, including 100 brocade pieces, 20 night pearls, 20 five-zhu coins, and 300 gold pearls. In addition, he secretly seized seven wives and daughters by various means. The evidence and physical evidence are there. Liang Guang, do you have something to say?"

Liang Guang, who was still struggling at the beginning, gradually stopped struggling and stopped saying a word. It was obviously someone who was messing with him, but he hadn't figured out who he hadn't figured out for a while. It would be better to shut up when he said more or wrong at this time.

"Take it away and search his property!" the young scholar waved.

"Don't hurt my master!" At this moment, four Liang Guang's guards drew their swords and rushed forward.

"Don't move lightly!" Liang Guang shouted quickly when he saw this, but before he finished speaking, he saw the young man's eyes cold, and he reached out and grabbed it with vain. The four guards instantly exploded and died.

"You... who are you?" Liang Guang looked at this scene with horror. These four guards had all passed the Qi training period and condensed their magic power in their bodies. They had been practicing Taoism for seven years. As far as Liang Guang knew, even those who were like this in the army could become a tooth general or a lie. How could they be so vulnerable in front of this young man?

"The new county magistrate of Suiyang, Lu Xun!" The young man smiled and said, "Take it away."

This is a young man who has never heard of it. Liang Guang hesitated for a moment and finally didn't say anything. There was a whole vein behind him, controlling the economy and people's livelihood of the entire Liang State. This time the other party was well prepared. It was hard to say whether it could cover it. But if he exposed this line, the whole family would be dying.

After Lu Xun watched Liang Guang leave, the people who came with him quickly controlled all the counties, chief clerks, thieves and others in the yamen. This time, Lu Bu wanted to completely clean up the officialdom. This was not just the magistrates of each county. The officials had to wash them, and uproot the veins of some places, so that their subsequent decrees could be implemented smoothly.

Over the past ten years, Lu Bu has had enough of every step he has to look forward to. Over the past ten years, although the population has exploded and more than 200 towns and towns have been built into county towns, there are many problems. Lu Bu has been enduring it while collecting evidence to make the explosion today.

Many people have not reacted until the end of this purge covering the five states under Lu Bu's rule. They are moving too fast, and those who have taken office have been practicing in Chen Pagoda for a hundred years. Although the most important thing is to learn and learn, this century of practice has also given them power far beyond ordinary people. Some of them are talented and outstanding, and they are not even weaker than military generals who specialize in cultivating magic power. These people have also been entrusted with important tasks by Lu Bu. Just like Lu Xun, they are directly the county magistrate. After three or five years, they are very likely to be promoted to prefect. Once these people take action, they will be thunderous and have no chance to react.

It was not until the third day of the cleaning that the local snakes gradually realized that they were not good. Their control over the local area was quickly disappearing, and the people placed in the yamen were replaced.

They wanted to resist, but as soon as these people took office, they quickly took the power of the county into their hands. They could only incite the resistance through public opinion and economic means, but no one dared to go directly to war. Lu Bu had zero tolerance for civil provocations and even killing officials. Someone tried it. Nine clans were killed. After several consecutive times, no one dared to deal with officials by any means.

Lu Bu's attitude is that you can win over, bribe or even threaten it, but as long as you dare to reach out, you will go to death. This is an iron rule, and only the court can punish officials.

Of course, Lu Bu was also cruel to killing officials. This is how the reputation of the people has come from over the years, but even so, in three days, nearly a thousand county magistrates in the five prefectures were replaced, and only a few counties were not liquidated. More importantly, these newly appointed county magistrates were all skillful, and more importantly, almost all of them were unfair. Even Lu Xun, they were children of the decaying family. Among these new county magistrates, there were no children of aristocratic families.

When did Lu Bu gather such a group of people in his hands?

Many people were panicked.

With Lu Bu having the upper hand, he has dared to oppose Lu Bu openly and secretly in the past ten years. The biggest reason is that most of the officials in the world are appointed by scholars. No matter how powerful Lu Bu is, you still need scholars to help you govern the world in the end.

It is precisely because of this consensus that even though they have seen Lu Bu's methods of enlightenment, they still dare to make small moves under Lu Bu. In their opinion, they have given up a lot of benefits and have also recognized Lu Bu's dominance in these five states. Even if the emperor is in Moling and Lu Bu has not been there for many years, no one will say that Lu Bu is not the case. And Lu Bu is as they thought, although he is ruthless in killing officials and killing, he is basically crossing the line.

They thought they had reached a consensus with Lu Bu, and Lu Bu acquiesced to this set of unspoken rules that run through the entire Han Dynasty. But now it seems that Lu Bu was obviously accumulating strength a long time ago in order to completely clean up the officialdom. In addition to the court, the county magistrates of the five prefectures under Lu Bu were almost replaced. Although the prefects of each county did not move, who can the prefects still command now?

I believe that it won’t take long before these prefects will be liquidated. After all, in the past ten years, in the process of the tentative and game between the aristocratic families and Lu Bu in the court, except for a few of these prefects who belong to Lu Bu’s confidants, the rest are all from aristocratic families in various places. At this time, since Lu Bu’s liquidation has begun, how could they be missing?

Some people want to stop it, but the magistrates of each county have been replaced by Lu Bu. What else can the prefect talk to Lu Bu?

The smarter ones began to take the initiative to resign from Lu Bu. This time it was a true resignation. Everyone understood that Lu Bu, who was no longer short of talents, could no longer hold on to Lu Bu's weakness. It was not that no one wanted to undermine these county magistrates of Lu Bu by means of lip service. However, the county magistrates who came out this time not only had high cultivation, but also were quite capable. There were several capable helpers around him, and the county magistrates were also seized from power at the first time. In this case, if people hold power in their hands, how could they make trouble?

A month after replacing the county magistrate, Lu Bu began to deal with the prefects of each county, and after half of the people were wiped out, the five states were now truly solid, completely under Lu Bu's dispatch, and Lu Bu no longer needed to be as scruples as before.

Nowadays, except for the court, all of the five states are Lu Bu's direct descendants, and they are naturally efficient in handling affairs.

The next issue is the infrastructure problem. Tianji Academy has begun to set up the best route, striving to connect all counties and organize a road network.

Then the renovation and widening of the post road began.

In addition to producing flying boats, Tianji Academy also has cars that can control running wildly on the ground. These cars often have extremely large load capacity and can save a lot of labor costs.

People who passed the customs and lived a peaceful life began to discover that there have been more flying boats flying in the sky recently and fewer monsters. At the same time, each county began to naturalize the road network, and it seemed that it was going to build a large number of people. However, in fact, each county did not recruit too many civilians. The various road construction tools designed by the Tianji Academy greatly saved manpower. The roads between the two counties often only need to plan the route, and use two sets of road construction tools to start construction, dig the foundation, fill it, and lay bluestone.

However, even if it is so fast, the five states and a radius of thousands of miles need to be built, including two bridges across the river. However, in the prediction of Shaofu and Tianji Academy, it only took five years. Tianji Academy provides tools and Shaofu is responsible for finding people.

What many people don’t know is that during the past five years, Lu Bu also built a city under the sea and obtained management rights from the Jiao Demon King. At this point, Lu Bu had the first city that was basically non-human inhabited. With the establishment of this city under the water, many wealthy merchants received news and began to move in, purchasing things directly from the sea under the sea as soon as possible and then selling them to various places.

Of course, there is no need to think about the undersea minerals. Even if you can dig, it is prohibited to be circulated on the market. Undersea minerals can only be mined by the imperial court.

At the same time, in five years, Lu Bu recruited as many as 500,000 new troops. Moreover, this time, the new troops were basically selected from the best and had a certain magical foundation. At the same time, through Zhou Yu, he successfully dug up a lot of talents from Jingzhou, such as Gan Ning, who was depressed and unsuccessful under Huang Zu, Huang Zhong, who was in a retirement state, and Wei Yan, who was full of energy but had no way to defect to him.

But people like Zhuge Liang and Pang Tong all chose to decline politely. As for the reason, it is hard to say now. It may be difficult for this world to grasp the future, or it may be that Lu Bu directly removed the scholarly class among the five states overnight.

It was not just that all the scholars were killed. There were naturally scholars under Lu Bu's rule, but they were no longer as glorious as before. After many aristocratic families moved their families to Jingzhou or Guanzhong, which also caused Cao Cao and Liu Bei to experience a surge in talent. These talents not only brought talents, but also brought the methods of training qi that Lu Bu made public, but also stimulated the Buddhist layout in these two families.

"Why don't your lord stop them?" Zhou Yu, who came back from Xia Pi, was a little confused about Lu Bu's approach.

"Some things need to be spread." Lu Bu smiled. What he wanted was to spread the qi training technique all over the world. This was the most suitable method of cultivation for human race. With this, Cao Cao and Liu Bei's attitude towards Buddhism would probably become subtle...
