Chapter 369 The Cui family is destroyed, Liu Bangjian kills

Cui Jing left, but not completely.

Liu Bang controlled the city gates and key roads as quickly as possible. He was prepared to catch the turtle in the jar from the beginning. How could he let Cui Jing escape from Langya?

On the contrary, Cui Jing, who was alone, was killed the fastest.

Cui Min, who was being attacked and retreated by Liu Bang, was completely in a panic.

Going forward, there are crossbow arrows coming, and it is impossible to hit the city gate. Going back, the streets have been blocked by neat soldiers, and they are constantly approaching.

Attacked from two sides, the gods cannot escape!
The panicked Cui Min looked around, and the servants and servants around him followed him into hesitation.

Cui Min looked at the closed city gate, and when he raised his head, he saw Liu Bang standing on the city wall with a smile, looking down at him.

How had he ever accepted such humiliation?However, the will to live overcame the humiliation. He opened his mouth in a murmur, but unexpectedly, a spherical object was thrown high on the city wall.

It's a human head!
Cui Min realized something!
When the head fell to the ground, it was still more than ten steps away from Cui Min, which was enough for him to see his face clearly.

He is... his eldest son!

Obviously, his son failed to escape!
At this moment, the messy thoughts in Cui Min's heart collapsed instantly, and messy emotions surged into his heart and throat, but in the end, only anger remained!
"kill!"

His eyes were wide open, and he desperately pulled out his dagger, leading the charge toward the city gate.

This time it was not to break out of the encirclement, but simply to die.

"It's still a bit bloody..." Liu Bang chuckled and waved his hand.

The cold Qin Nu shot down overwhelmingly under Liu Bang's order!

Cui Min, who was in the lead, was the first to be hit by the arrow. After all, he was at the front and was not wearing armor. He was only protected by a few servants.

The crossbow arrow penetrated Cui Min's body. He staggered to the ground and struggled to get up, but Xuemo kept spilling from the corners of his mouth!

He fell, and could only watch helplessly as the retainers and servants supported by his family were like flies launching a futile charge towards the towering city gate.

It's over, everything is over!
Cui Min never thought that his father and son would die in Langya City, in his base camp.

He had never thought that the First Emperor would be so decisive in implementing the order to move the royal mausoleum.

Completely, unreasonable and unruly.

Normally, shouldn't it be a step-by-step approach, with troops coming to cover up the water and the earth?

The nobles of the world stood still. Even if the First Emperor wanted to enforce it, he should have issued a law to specify the time and formulate the corresponding punishment.

What he didn't expect was that the first thing the First Emperor did was not to issue a decree to set a time, but to take action brazenly.

There was no room for preparation, no room for consideration.

If you don’t cooperate, you will be destroyed!
Hazy blood covered Cui Min's eyes. He saw the guests and servants at home falling one after another. He looked straight at the Black Ice Platform guard who killed his son stepping down the stairs.

He struggled to crawl towards his son's head, but in the end it was all in vain. He was left with his mouth open, like a fish out of water, with only air coming in but no air coming out.

Liu Bang slowly came to Cui Jing's body and squatted down.

He noticed that Cui Min's mouth was still moving slightly.

"Anything to say?"

Liu Bang bared his teeth and smiled.

"It's better not to say anything!"

"Shiqing Shilu, he devoured the support of the common people, but in the end he did nothing for the country. He set up salt fields privately, took profits from the country, occupied land, colluded with local governments, and arbitrarily fixed households and taxes. Is Langya his Majesty's Langya or the Cui family's? Langya?"

"The Cui family was not killed unjustly."

Liu Bang sneered and looked at Cui Min, but there was no reaction.

Obviously, Cui Min is dead...

The deaths of Cui Min and his son were just the beginning.

The Cui family is not just Cui Min and his son.

As a descendant of Jiang Taigong Lu Shang, a nobleman with almost as long history as Guo Zuo of Qi State, the descendants of the Cui family have already spread throughout Langya.

If we insist on talking about it, the Cui surname in Qi State and even in the world can have some blood relationship with the Cui family.

Cui Min was finally punished by Heibingtai for clan execution.

Of course, it is impossible to trace the clan execution based on bloodline, that is, with Cui Min as the core, three generations will be killed and the fifth generation will be held accountable.

Within three generations, there is no doubt that they will die, and if they fail within three generations, they will be implicated and demoted to slaves within five generations.

Those outside the Five Dynasties will not be held accountable. Of course, if you engage in politics, there will still be political influence.

Basically, the entire Langya Cui family has no possibility of selecting officials as officials.

"Lu Wan, you dispatch [-] soldiers and horses to search all the Cui family's properties and shops in Langya City!"

"Chen Sheng and Wu Guang, come with me to Cuidi!"

Chen Sheng couldn't help but rub his hands after hearing this, his face full of an unbearable look.

Cui land, the land of the Cui family!

Cui Min and Cui Jing's father and son live in Langya City, but it is impossible for all Cui family members to live in Langya City.

The Cui family has a long history like the Qi State. There are so many people with the Cui surname, how can they all live in Langya.

In fact, most of the Cui family members live in Cui Di.

This is the base camp of the Cui family.

There are as many as ten thousand households with just one surname!

This is the bond of having the same surname and blood. As the head of a clan, Cui Min can easily mobilize tens of thousands of people with the surname Cui. Similarly, this is also the fundamental reason why Qin's decrees cannot penetrate into local areas.

The nobles in charge of a place rely not only on power and wealth, but also on the reputation of Shiqing Shilu.

There are too many people in the clan, the cohesion is too strong, and there are many intellectuals, so the clan law is greater than the law!

Chen Sheng, Wu Guang and others happily accepted the order, ordered their troops and horses, and headed straight for Cuidi.

Compared with the ease of catching turtles in the urn in Langya City, destroying the Cui family is the most difficult step.

There are really many Cui family members. They have food and people. Although they lack soldiers, horses and equipment, their cohesion is very high.

Fortunately, Cui Min, Cui Jing and his son were accustomed to peace, and the decision was settled in Langya City, which gave Liu Bang the opportunity to capture the thieves and capture the king first. The Cui family was currently leaderless. At this time, it was a good time to attack.

It is almost impossible to expect the Cui family to be captured without mercy. Although Langya City acted quickly to destroy Cui Jing and his son, the news was bound to be leaked due to the away battle. And since the guilt of the family execution was determined, the Cui family was destined to fight to the death!Liu Bang commanded Langya's county soldiers, ministers and laborers, totaling 6000 troops, and headed straight for Cuidi!

Among them, there were [-] county soldiers and [-] servants in total.

This battle was very difficult. Fortunately, Liu Bang, Chen Sheng, and Wu Guang led the troops. Even if they are the best, it depends on who they are compared with.

After all, history has proven their abilities. Even if they are not as good as the top talents, they are not figures that can be touched by one place or one clan.

In this battle, the Cui family was destroyed and blood flowed...

Liu Bang's first grand appearance ended with a great victory. At the same time, letters reporting his victory also reached Xianyang.

In the palace, the first emperor, Li Si, and Zhao Si surrounded the case. On the table were the memorials sent by Liu Bang and others.

"The death of the Cui family is really unjust..."

Zhao Si sighed after carefully reading the memorial in front of him.

"Having mastered nearly half of Langya's land, he maliciously annexed the common people's fields, and asked the common people to reclaim wasteland and pay taxes. He colluded with the local government and tried every means to reduce his own taxes. He took over the entire commercial activities of Langya and made money. There are countless coins stored in the basement, and the knots of the copper coins stored in the basement have rotted, so that the common people in Langya area have no money to use, and they even have to barter and use various means to spy on the secrets of the Daqin Salt Industry and set up private salt farms. , monopolizing the private salt business of the entire Langya and even half of Qi!"

The Cui family was included in the order to move the royal mausoleum, but the Cui family did not need to move because there was no Cui family in Da Qin.

The results of destroying the Cui family can be said to be very fruitful.

How rich is it?The face of the First Emperor with suppressed anger in front of him said it all.

If it was just an average abundance, it could only be said to be a windfall for the First Emperor.

However, according to preliminary statistics from Liu Bang and the local Hei Bingtai, the sum of the various properties, money and grain seized by the Cui family can equal the total tax of the Qin Dynasty for more than a year.

Yes!

The total tax amount of the entire Qin Dynasty exceeds one year.

The Cui family didn't suddenly become rich. They were serious nobles, descendants of Grand Duke Jiang.

He has been a top nobleman since hundreds of years ago. Such a top nobleman is not something that the rich and powerful during the Han Dynasty can touch.

This is the cumulative result of the Cui family for generations. Objectively speaking, due to the harshness of Qin's laws and the strict supervision system of Qin officials, the Cui family's wealth has shrunk a lot to a certain extent.

but!That is the total amount of taxes paid by the Qin Dynasty for a full year, and the Qin state tax is five!The tax is five!
But if you consider that the Cui family has been entrenched in the Langya area for hundreds of years, everything becomes more reasonable. The Cui family is Shiqing Shilu in Qi State. The official position is inherited and they are still top officials.

Now, the Cui family has been destroyed, and the wealth has been received into the Qin treasury, but the First Emperor's face is still not good-looking.

It’s true, but it’s too much!
"My money..." The First Emperor's lips moved, with an indescribable look between his brows and eyes.

Obviously, in the eyes of the First Emperor, the world was his wealth.

And these moths have gained so much benefit, which is not something to be happy about.

The First Emperor seriously underestimated the danger of this group of people!

When the First Emperor spoke three words, the famous scene from Jiajing came to Zhao Si's mind and he almost stopped.

However, although the two words are similar, their meanings are obviously different.

"The order to move the royal mausoleum has been promulgated for so long. Except for the Yu family and the Xiang family, all the other families have stayed put to resist. Now that the Cui family has been destroyed, all the big families have been warned and felt His Majesty's determination. Now it is also It's time to issue a summons to urge them to follow the king's order and move to the pass." In order not to laugh, Zhao Si changed the subject slightly stiffly.

"Practice ink." The First Emperor nodded.

When the order to move the royal tombs was promulgated, there was no stipulation on how long the move must be completed.

Rather than asking the nobles to resist the order and then use thunderous means to maintain the dignity of the order, the First Emperor obviously preferred to first give the king authority and authority and then issue the order for them to obey.

Before the Black Ice Platform descended to the ground, and before the long sword was placed on their necks, no one would take it seriously no matter how tight the stipulated time was.

Such a decree is destined to be resisted from the moment it is born.

Zhao Si studied ink for the First Emperor, and the First Emperor drafted the pen and drafted the decree.

This time the summons was just a supplement to the order to move the royal tomb.

The content of the decree is concise and powerful.

Counting from the time when this edict was promulgated, within three months, the lucky person who boarded the order to move the royal mausoleum must set off, and within six months, he must arrive in Xianyang. If he exceeds the time limit, he will be severely punished.

As for how to punish?The Cui family is a bloody example.

The First Emperor drafted the decree, and Zhao Si fetched the seal for the First Emperor with ease. After stamping the seal, he handed it directly to Li Si, who was responsible for advertising to the world.

"The Cui family has been destroyed now. Each family has been warned. The Black Ice Platform has also descended to the local area. The order to move the royal tomb should be successfully implemented in a short time. However, without this in advance, I am afraid that the order to move the royal tomb will be issued next time. It will cause a strong backlash from the nobles in the world. The nobles of the world still understand the truth that the rabbit dies and the fox is sad, and the lips are dead and the teeth are cold. Great Qin should also make some preparations." Zhao Si said with a smile.

Liu Bang and others commanded nearly [-] county soldiers, and it took them two days to completely capture the leaderless Cui family.

Of course, part of the reason for this is that Liu Bang attacked and destroyed the Cui family for the crime of treason and execution. There was no way out, so the Cui family resisted to the death. However, the heritage of the thousand-year-old family can still be seen.

"The worst thing is to destroy the Six Kingdoms again." Li Si shook his head and laughed.

This was something that the First Emperor and Li Si had anticipated a long time ago and were prepared for it.

"I'm not worried about the country." Zhao Si spread his hands.

Zhao Si just mentioned it casually, mainly because the Wu Huan Hua clearly remembered it, and he was afraid that the remnants of the Six Kingdoms would unite with the barbarians to attack Qin, causing chaos on the border and destroying Qin's control of the border.

"If chaos breaks out, it will be the lieutenant's dereliction of duty." Li Si chuckled.

"The nobles of the Six Kingdoms resisting the order to move the king's tomb is something they have thought about for a long time. At present, South Vietnam on the border has not yet been pacified, Longxi has just won and is still unstable, and the Huns have not yet been convinced. In this situation, you have already thought about what you are worried about. ." Li Si shook his head and smiled.

How much does Zhao Si look down on Wang Jian?

Again, when the Qin State destroyed the Six Kingdoms, what methods did the Six Kingdoms not use in order to survive?
Tossing and turning is just playing with the remaining tricks.

"Compared with worrying about these, there are other things for you to worry about." Li Si waved his hand.

"Ye Tiaoguo's envoy has arrived at the port of Penglai three days ago and officially arrived in Daqin. The reception will be handed over to your shipping and trade army." Li Si took out a memorial from his arms.

"So fast?"

Zhao Si was stunned for a moment.

Ye Tiaoguo is the Indonesian country at war with Jing.

"Engage in diplomacy..."

Zhao Si touched his chin and fell into deep thought.

Let me think about any good way to benefit myself at the expense of others!

Thanks to something that happened in his previous life, Zhao Si's sense of this area has never been very good.

(Come up with some ideas on how to benefit yourself at the expense of others. In addition, Ye Diaoguo was founded in 200 BC, with a population of several million. It was a slave state at the same time as the Qin Dynasty, and was officially established in the Central Plains during the Han Dynasty. Contact. I’m really not making this up. There really was a country in this place BC. I’ve marked the names. If you don’t believe me, you can search it on Baidu.)
