Returning to the Town Hall, Liu Ji reported what had happened in the past two days.
Previously, with Xiao Yi's body size, Liu Ji had deployed many plainclothes bailiffs in the city, and they had really gained something.
On the day Xiao Yi left, plainclothes officers accidentally heard about the uprising in the Road of Peace. Thus, Liu Ji followed the clues and quickly caught all the spies in the city in one fell swoop. He also instigated a few people with unstable minds to defect.
Liu Ji used these people to beat them at their own game and lure them out.
That was how Xiao Yi saw this scene!
"Advisor Jun, you have a divine plan and saved the people of the city. I really don't know how to thank you.”
Xiao Yi admired Liu Ji's wisdom, but he also admired his military talent.
If it wasn't for him, although they could defend the city, they would have suffered losses. It was almost impossible to annihilate the Yellow Turban rebels.
Liu Ji was flattered and quickly bowed." Lord, you're too kind. It's my honor to be able to do my best for you."
If it wasn't for the Lord's benevolent government and love for the people, with the support of so many commoners, and the help of these fierce generals beside me, even if I had the ability to reach the heavens, it would be useless.”
"Alright, don't be so humble. Merits should be rewarded, and mistakes should be punished.
Today's battle has greatly boosted the might of our Zhuo County. It has dealt a blow to the arrogance of the enemy and shocked the four directions. The military advisor's government has contributed the most! As for the others, they would be rewarded according to their achievements!”
Xiao Yi was also very happy that he had won the first battle, and it was a complete victory.
Wasn't that how fame came about?
"Mister Lin, immediately order the kitchen to slaughter the livestock and prepare a banquet. I want to properly reward the soldiers who have fought a bloody battle!”
Lin Yong, who was previously a warehouse official, had already been promoted by Xiao Yi to be a warehouse officer, in charge of the logistics of the granary.
"Mr. He, count the number of casualties and collect money from the treasury to appease the fallen soldiers. In the center of the city square, a stone tablet was built to engrave the names of the fallen soldiers. Let the citizens of the city admire their honor at all times!”
Xiao Yi gave two orders, and Lin Yong and He Shen immediately took action.
These days, Xiao Yi's impression of He Shen had changed greatly.
In some films and television works, he was often described as an ugly corrupt official.
However, in reality, He Shen was an extremely capable talent.
Moreover, he was very good at negotiating and knew how to spend money. Many things that others couldn't handle were immediately solved by him.
Therefore, when Ji Xiaolan was handling court cases, many civil disputes were handed over to her best friend to handle.
The most surprising thing about him was that he handled 136 civil disputes in one day, winning the praise of the people.
However, he had a problem, which was that he loved money. Every time he was given money to do something, he would put the extra money into his own pocket.
Xiao Yi knew this, but he did not blame him.
Firstly, Xiao Yi was not short of money, so it did not matter if he was greedy.
Secondly, He Shen He was a good person and had a good relationship with everyone. Even if he was greedy, no one would raise him.
Because he would do things well every time and would not be affected by corruption.
Thirdly, and most importantly, he was absolutely loyal to Xiao Yi.
Therefore, Xiao Yi interpreted his 'corruption' as using his wisdom to make money. Therefore, every time she asked him to do something, she would deliberately give him more money.
In less than two hours, He Shen returned.
" Is everything settled?!"
Xiao Yi was a little surprised. This was too fast.
He Shen smiled and his eyes narrowed." My lord, everything is settled." The families of the deceased soldiers had all been settled. Their bodies had already been buried.
As for the Hero Monument, according to the lord's instructions, it would be completed in five days at most.”
His efficiency was truly astonishing.
Even Liu Ji admired him sometimes.
"However, there is still one more problem."
He Shen frowned.
"What is it?"
Something that could stump He Shen was definitely not a small problem.
Everyone had a question mark on their faces.
"The soldiers are sorting out the corpses of the rebel soldiers, but there are too many corpses. If we bury them all, it will take a long time.
However, if he didn't take care of it, the weather was getting hotter and the body would rot in a few days. At that time, it would probably attract a plague.”
He Shen's worry made everyone frown.
Logically speaking, when two armies fought, they would collect the corpses after the battle. This was the basic respect for the dead.
However, the Yellow Turban Army was not a regular army. They did not have a perfect system, nor did they have the friendship of comrades. They could not waste time collecting the bodies of people they did not know.
Therefore, it was impossible to count on them to collect the corpse.
"Why don't we burn it?" Li Cunxiao suggested.
"No!" A few civil officials hurriedly waved their hands." General Li, the dead are the most important. We should bury them in peace." If they were to be burned collectively, it would be disrespectful to the dead and would cause public anger.”
"This method is not feasible.”
The ones who spoke up to stop him were all a few old men.
Xiao Yi glanced at Liu Ji, who was also looking at him.
From Liu Ji's eyes, Xiao Yi read the same thoughts.
"We should respect the dead, but there is no need to do so for animals.”
Xiao Yi shook his head. These old men still didn't know how abominable the Yellow Turban thieves were. When the news from all over the world came, they wouldn't think so.
"The Yellow Turban army is rampant, rebelling and terrorizing the people. "Now that they have been killed by us, we should use their corpses to warn the world of those who have evil intentions.
"Therefore, I have decided to build a capital temple with the corpses of the rebels to show the world!”
