753. Chapter 742 Liu De of ‘Benevolence’


Chapter 742 The ‘Benevolent’ Liu De

As Bai Tu, who has been fighting for nearly a year since he surrendered, it is definitely not that much of a loyal minister.

His core purpose of surrendering to the Zhou Dynasty was nothing more than two, one was to survive, and the other was to avenge his motherland.

Afterwards, through understanding of Da Zhou’s strength, his loyalty began to slowly increase.

But until just now, when Zhou Xu looked at him with the 'Eye of Peeping Secrets', Bai Tu's loyalty was only seventy-eight points.

In the past, when he couldn't see loyalty, he wouldn't have so many thoughts, but now that he can see it, sometimes it becomes a situation where he can't even think about it.

As a normal citizen, this level of loyalty is not low. It is to the extent that he already has a loyal heart and will not rebel easily.

But if you want to be a general leading an army here, these seventy-eight points of loyalty are obviously not enough.

According to Zhou Xu's current thinking, if you want to lead an army alone, you must have 80 points of loyalty in order to obtain his qualification certificate for leading troops.

However, what he didn't expect was that his casual words of comfort would cause Bai Tu's loyalty to increase by two points, and it suddenly passed the eighty-point mark. Meet the standards of being a loyal minister.

Faced with this unexpected joy, Zhou Xu was very satisfied.

At the same time, it also gave him some new ideas to a certain extent.

【Should we give Bai Tu a chance to show off later? 】

After soothing himself, if Bai Tu takes over this hand again, he will definitely know that he is giving him a chance, and his loyalty will definitely increase by then!

Of course, considering the possible risks involved, Zhou Xu has not yet made up his mind and has to think about it again.

After leaving Green Forest City, Zhou Xu went straight to Xianyang City.

During this period, in Xishan City...

Just as Zhou Xu guessed, Liu Dezheng was worried about the internal food problem, and his survival until now was entirely dependent on the previous food reserves.

It was hard to survive the winter, but now that spring is coming and spring plowing can begin, Liu De was happy for a moment, feeling that those refugees could finally be put to some use, and he finally got through it. .

Little did he know that his troubles had just begun, and he soon realized that in this situation, spring plowing would further increase his burden.

Originally before the spring began, although the refugees in the city only had one bowl of gruel every day, they didn't have to work at all. Apart from queuing up to get the porridge, they just lay around and lay it out, without much consumption.

But once the fields need to be cultivated, this bowl of gruel is not enough, and they all ask for more food, otherwise they will not have the strength to cultivate the land.

However, the food in Liu De's hands was almost not enough for himself, so how could he get more food for the refugees?

At first, he ignored these requests.

But as time goes by, the dissatisfaction of those refugees who drink a bowl of gruel every day but are forced to work hard to cultivate the fields is growing day by day.

In an unexpected conflict later, a Yingguo soldier who was responsible for keeping an eye on the refugees' farming land directly drew a knife and killed a refugee who secretly cursed because of dissatisfaction, thus triggering a wave of chaos.

Seven refugees died and more than 30 refugees were injured during the turmoil.

Liu De was furious when he heard the news, and he was even more annoyed.

He was angry with the soldier who had done something stupid, and also with the group of ungrateful refugees. "Those bastards don't even think about who allowed them to live until now! Without me, they would have starved to death long ago! Now let them cultivate a few pieces of land, and then they will complain to me and be tired. Making trouble! What a bunch of troublemakers!”


Liu De yelled and cursed while smashing the things at hand to vent his emotions.

But scolding should be scolded, and smashing should be smashed. Considering the "Benevolence" archway he has erected, Liu De must have enough superficial skills.

The next day, facing the excited refugees, Liu De cried bitterly in public, with snot and tears blaming himself for not being able to restrain his subordinates, and that this happened.

“Now that things have happened, I have no face to face the people!”

While speaking, Liu De pulled out the sword from his waist, and actually wanted to draw the sword and kill himself, which caused a stir. There was a burst of exclamation at the scene.

At the same time, the guards on both sides rushed forward to stop them, and a group of subordinates knelt down and shouted...

"No, Your Majesty! If you die, how will the people of Jingguo live?!"

The refugees down here are already so hungry that they are skin and bones. They don’t have enough to eat every day, and they can barely move their brains.

In addition, everything happened too fast at that time, and they did not understand what Liu De's life and death had to do with how they lived, so they knelt down inexplicably and began to beg together.

This Liu De had no intention of killing himself, but now that he had achieved his goal, he threw away the sword and showed off, "I was going to kill myself to apologize, but you all begged me not to." If you die, then I will just try to survive." Kong Daqian rolled his eyes as he watched.

By the way, this idea was not his. In some matters, Liu De was gifted, and he did have some skills.

"Please rest assured, I will punish the soldiers who committed the crime severely! The common people who died unfortunately will be buried generously. As for the injured, I will arrange a place and find a doctor to treat them. Let them rest in peace."

With this set of rules, the refugees had no reason to attack, and this matter was successfully covered by Liu De.

If he has a bigger picture in the future and does what he promised, he will be fine for the time being.

Unfortunately, this Liu De pattern is really a big deal.

The soldier who committed the crime was indeed severely punished, mainly because he was also angered by those soldiers.

The people who died were said to be given generous burials, but in fact they were buried in a pit dug outside the city.

But in this era, that's about it. Even if the people know about it, they usually don't have any idea.

The most deadly thing here were the injured people. On the pretext of arranging a place to rest, he gathered them all in a courtyard, then turned around and killed them all!

If any of their family members come to ask during this period, they will say that they followed the doctor's orders and the injured should have a good rest and not see outsiders. After a while, they will say that they have recovered from their injuries and left on their own.

By then, even if the families of the injured and sick people don’t see anyone, it will be a death without evidence.

After all, in times of famine like this, it is normal for people to die and disappear every day.

But there is no airtight wall in this world. As soon as Liu De gave the order to kill someone, the news leaked out and spread in the city...
