The First Military Division of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 363 Calm down
Chapter 370

"I report to Your Majesty that there are many cases of corruption among officials in various places. This is the list and evidence..." After the morning exercises, Liu Bei was sitting on the dragon chair in good spirits. He was in a good mood these days. Under Chen Ziming's onslaught, the Confucianism and Taoism alliance has disintegrated. Not only are the great Confucianists no longer participating in this matter, but many ministers in the court and China have also given up the matter of forcing the palace and working with peace of mind.

I don't want someone to stand up to make trouble early this morning. After reading the list on the paper, Liu Bei's face was ashen, because all the people on it were the chief officials of various parties. A group of students, and most of them are from humble backgrounds, that is, Liu Bei's hardcore supporters, Liu Bei is now able to compete with the clan's capital.

But the content above gave Liu Bei the urge to kill. Liu Bei knew that the evidence was absolutely true, and even if there were discrepancies, it was not a big deal. After all, such things are easy to find out, and it is impossible to falsify.

"Come here, order the Government Affairs Council to unite..."

Liu Bei was furious, and immediately ordered several departments to jointly arrest people. This kind of corruption is absolutely intolerable to Liu Bei, even if they are all Liu Bei's supporters, but who is Liu Bei, and he can tolerate this kind of corruption in his eyes official.

"Brother, they started to fight back..." Liu Bei and Chen Ziming sat alone in the room drinking tea and chatting, Chen Ziming said lightly.

"Yeah." Liu Bei nodded slightly and said, "I'm afraid they will make use of the problem..."

Liu Bei is not only good at crying, but also a good player in playing politics. How can such a method be hidden from Liu Bei's eyes.

"These officials came from humble backgrounds and have no background. They are easily dragged into the water by those clans. With a little design, they will be caught by those clans. This kind of thing has happened many times before, but I didn't expect so many people to be taken by the clan. Exit." Chen Ziming was also helpless, although these poor scholars left Linzi Academy, when they arrived in the local area, they could easily fall into the schemes of those who had good intentions.

After trying the temptation of money, it was difficult to extricate himself. From then on, he went further and further away, and finally he was completely controlled by the clan. This is also the defect of the poor, and Chen Ziming has nothing to do.

"But it's okay..." Liu Bei's eyes flashed brightly, since those clans were going to sacrifice the underprivileged officials under their control to attack miscellaneous officials, Liu Bei was not polite.

"I have asked the dark guards to closely monitor the various places. If there are rumors going around, they will be arrested immediately." It is rare for Chen Ziming to give the dark guards the power to arrest people, and only the dark guards can completely calm down the matter.

How could Chen Ziming not guess the next step of those clans? He used this group of corrupt officials to make a fuss, boasting that the officials who were not of Confucian origin were not morally cultivated enough to be officials.

It's a pity that they overestimated Liu Bei's benevolent heart, and underestimated Chen Ziming's ruthlessness. Now Liu Bei firmly holds military power in his hands, and his speech is strictly controlled. Especially when the Minbao came out, the speech under Liu Bei's rule has been completely controlled. Don't look at the collective letter from all officials, asking Liu Bei to depose all schools of thought and respect Confucianism alone.

However, under Liu Bei's rule, it was only spread among the high-level people and attracted attention. The local people didn't take it seriously at all, and were more deeply attracted by what the people said in the newspaper.

The clan had the intention to make this matter a big deal, but since none of the servants who were sent out to spread rumors about everything had returned, they knew that the matter was serious.

In the end, they were forced to give up the trump card they held, which was the group of officials controlled by them, in order to attack miscellaneous officials.

"Kill..." After reading the collected evidence, Liu Bei did not go through legal procedures at all, but with a big wave of his hand, he beheaded all the corrupt officials for public display.

Chen Ziming didn't raise any objection to this either. After all, the big Han is not yet united, and foreign enemies are around, but there is no time to slowly quarrel with these clans, even if they kill them, let them see Liu Bei's methods.

The murderous Liu Bei also calmed down the rambunctious clans. They also realized that the great Han world was no longer something clans like them could play with as they wished. They had no military power, no right to speak, and could not guide the people's speech. They are a clan with no soldiers and no power, and they can only stare.

They were also afraid, they were afraid that Liu Bei would really be pissed off, and he would kill the clan like Jiangdong Sun Ce, exterminating the clan and ransacking the house was just a matter of words.

"Except for some crimes of bribing officials, I haven't found any major crimes." Chen Ziming originally wanted to find some excuses to kill some disobedient clans, but the crimes collected in the end could not be used against these clans.

"They had premeditated, how could they give me a reason to wait for the action, but the officials in various places must be monitored, and there is no need to give those clans any traces." Liu Bei said, and gave up the plan to kill chickens and monkeys, after all Liu Bei is not a bloodthirsty person. Without evidence, he cannot follow Sun Ce's example and kill the clan under his rule.

"Dark Guardian News, Jiangdong is moving." After several months of turmoil, those clans finally calmed down, and Liu Bei stopped taking eye drops. Liu Bei turned his attention to the powerful enemies other than the big man, Sun Quan and Cao Cao.

"The trend of Jiangdong southeast cannot be changed, but Cao Cao didn't take advantage of this opportunity to attack us, which can be regarded as a foresight." Chen Ziming was a little disappointed, but he wanted Cao Cao to attack, and then use the name of the enemy to kill some troublesome clans.

"This matter must not happen again..." Liu Bei's eyes flashed with murderous intent. If these clans came to this fight at the time of the foreign war, Liu Bei would be punished.

Immediately, Liu Bei recruited Wang Yue, and ordered Wang Yue to set up a special department to monitor these unrepentant clans and collect evidence of crimes. When the time was right, he decisively took action to eliminate these clans who did not repent and were still daydreaming.

"Cao Cao sent [-] more troops to Yanzhou, and there are signs of mobilizing troops from all over the country to the east, but I think Cao Cao should want to attack Hanzhong and Yizhou." Chen Ziming looked at the secret report in his hand and said quietly.

"And this." Liu Bei handed another secret report to Chen Ziming, and then said: "Xu Sheng ordered someone to send it. Last winter, Xianbei King Qiu Liju led [-] Xianbei soldiers to attack the Xiongnu. The Xiongnu Shanyu Huchu Quan led [-] Xiongnu soldiers and horses to fight, both sides suffered heavy casualties, but Qiu Liju sent another group of soldiers and horses to detour and attack the Xiongnu's rear, the Huns were defeated, and Huchuquan retreated thousands of miles, completely at a disadvantage."

"The grassland is vast and boundless. You can't go out easily, just keep it strictly. After the great Han pacifies the Central Plains, the whole country will be destroyed." Chen Ziming calculated that within five years, Xianbei would not be able to recover, and it would be impossible to threaten the Liu Bei Group.
