Iron Dynasty - Chapter 1108
Sue the execution ground.
After the announcement of the execution and rebellion was posted, the place was already overcrowded, with black heads everywhere.
“The emperor, do you really want to execute Luo Hong?”
Taichung Niu Ben, who is on the side of the execution ground, has regrets in his eyes. This is a room specially set up to observe the execution process on the execution ground.
Outside the room, Luo Quan carried the two men on his back like execution soldiers with Han-style rifles. He couldn’t see the look on his face at this time.
Xiao Ming sighed and said, “General Niu, if the soldiers in your army made the same mistake as Luo Hong, what would you do?”
“Of course it is to make a decision!” Niu Ben said: “The army is afraid of corrupt discipline. If it is handled unfairly, it will be very harmful to the army.” “What if this person is the person you trust most?”
“There is only military law in the army, there is no difference between closeness and estrangement!” Niu Ben said loudly.
“That’s it. The military has military laws, state-owned and national laws. In the military, those who violate the law are not dealt with seriously. What corrupts is the military law, and if those who violate the national law cannot be handled impartially, the corrupt is the law of the country. Today, Luo Hong can go outside the law. Reaching for grace, other people can also grant favors outside the law in the future, so what use is the law of this country?”
Niu Ben sighed slightly. He said: “What the emperor taught is that the old officials are confused. If Luo Hong’s crimes of treason are unlawful, the laws of the empire will lose the trust of the people, and the people will no longer have the law. If you trust, you will no longer trust the court. Since then, the country and the people will no longer have one heart and one mind.” “That’s right, this is the reason why I want to kill Luo Hong. If the person on the execution ground is replaced by my son, I will kill him as well. The law of the country is like the great road of nature. The great road collapses, the land collapses, the stars fall, everything is annihilated, the law collapses, people’s minds are chaotic, mountains and rivers are broken, the country will not be the country, I would rather throw it away All the conquered land does not want to see imperial laws being trampled.”
Niu Ben looked at Xiao Ming’s cold expression and nodded slowly. He understood that the empire in front of him was no joke.
The era in which the nobles of the Great Yu country could trample on the law seems to be over. From then on, from the emperor to the Li people, they must live under the law.
A tumult suddenly sounded when the two were talking, Niu Ben looked out the window, and the soldiers escorted Cao Kun, father and son and the remnants of the merchant council onto the execution ground.
“Traitor!”
“Traitor!”
“…”
An angry roar erupted from the crowd, Caibangzi, and the stone were thrown at Cao Kun and his son like it was raining.
There were two gallows on the execution ground. Cao Kun and Cao Zhengtong were taken below, while the others were taken to a long white wall.
The execution soldiers stood in long platoons, waiting for the execution order. “Dog thief!” Niu Ben looked at the two and gritted his teeth. After this period of interrogation, they obtained little information.
With their help, both Britain and France have made great progress in basic sciences such as mathematics, physics, chemistry, biology, astronomy, and geography.
Although the students they brought did not master advanced and sophisticated technology, they had a solid and comprehensive grasp of the knowledge they had learned on weekdays.
The West is now in a stage of exploration in science, and what they have brought is enough to perfect the Western scientific system.
Even without these traitors, with the popularization of imperial education, this knowledge will sooner or later spread out with trade, but their active betrayal of the country is still treason. After all, the West who has mastered basic science only needs to digest this knowledge. It was enough to cause him no small trouble.
“The emperor, the prisoners are all here, are you going to execute the sentence?” The execution officer asked Xiao Ming for instructions.
“Execution!”
Xiao Ming decisively gave the order, and the bronze statues of Cao Kun and Cao Zhengtongs confession have been cast. After the execution of the two, the two bronze statues will be transported to the gate of Qingzhou City. The world spurned.
Under the gallows, Cao Kun and Cao Zhengtong swayed like dysentery, and in front of them was a looped twine.
As long as their heads are inserted, the planks under their feet will be opened. “I don’t want to die, I don’t want to die…” Cao Zhengtong muttered like a babble, but waiting for him to be an execution soldier put a rope around his neck.
Cao Kun was already speechless, and let the angry people smash things on him.
“I don’t want to die… uh…”
Cao Zhengtong’s babble quickly turned into a struggling sound of being strangled in his throat. At this time, their feet were hanging in the air and struggling for a while, and the two of them quickly stopped moving.
At the same time, a neat burst of gunfire sounded, and the remnants of the merchant council were rushed to the end.
There was a burst of applause from the execution ground. After these rebellious deaths, the people were excited.
The bodies of Cao Kun and his son were dragged down, and then another group of people were brought up. This was the rebellion led by Ge Yiren and Luo Hong.
Seeing Luo Hong, Luo Quan’s body moved, carrying a rifle and other soldiers who executed the execution to the execution position.
Niu Ben sighed again. He couldn’t bear to look. He turned his eyes away, and Luo Xin’s eyes were slightly red. He had accepted this fact, but even so, the one who was about to die was still his brother.
“Luo Hong, you are really confused. Even if you die in battle, it is better than dying here.”
On the execution ground, Luo Quan stood behind Luo Hong, looking like he hated iron but not steel.
“Father, needless to say, it was I who made the Luo family embarrassed. I am sorry to the Luo family and the emperor. I am also sorry to the brothers who followed me from birth to death. I brought them into the ghost gate.” Luo Hong looked straight ahead. White Wall, thinking about it all night, he figured out many things.
The ups and downs of officialdom are normal, and he is too obsessed with his status.
“It is a mistake for the father to make a mistake. You should have been sent to Qingzhou. Then the commander of the Southwest Army will be you. Luo Xin has a gentle personality and will not be as impulsive as you. “Luo Quan’s gun hand trembled a little. Luo Hong was his son. It was a difficult and compelling decision for him to shoot his son personally. “Father, it’s not your fault. I’m just not reconciled to admit that Luo Xin is inferior to Luo Xin. Watching him step by step, my eldest brother is inferior everywhere, and his heart is indeed out of balance. Now that I think about it, I was really wrong. Its right for me to be the commander of the military region. Lets do it~~ I will return to my father in the next life.”
His voice fell, and suddenly gunfire sounded, Ge Yiren and the nobles who were plotting to rebel fell in a pool of blood.
Luo Quan picked up the gun, trembling he pulled the trigger, the gunshot sounded, Luo Hong’s body slowly fell.
Xiao Ming closed his eyes as soon as he shot the shot, and now he finally understands Zhuge Liang’s feelings when he cut the horse with tears.
Walking slowly out of the room, Xiao Ming said to Luo Xin: “Luo Hong has outstanding military exploits and is the pillar of the empire. I am determined to pursue him as the commander of the empire.”
“Thank you Emperor Longen!” Luo Hong bowed in gratitude.
Looking at the sun poking out of the dark clouds in the eastern sky, Xiao Ming stepped out of the execution ground under the protection of the guard.
This rebellion that affected the entire empire is over. He believes that this shock will surely make many people in the country see the fact that it is impossible to subvert the empire during his reign.
In this way, the interior of the empire will be cleared, and he will have more time to lay out the foundation of the empire.
