The third move of the Great River Sword Intent!
The Yellow River, stretching for thousands of miles, shakes the mountains!
Unstoppable force, unparalleled power!
There are very few people below the level of a terrestrial immortal who can withstand this move!
Li Chang'an couldn't help but sigh, having finally achieved some success in martial arts after two years in this world.
Huang Boren imposed martial law on all the people in the city, and they all stayed in their rooms and did not come out.
At this moment, Li Cunxiao, following Li Chang'an's instructions, began to shout into the city.
"The Tang Emperor has been ordered to garrison Shazhou, and all seven prefectures of Shazhou are now the Tang Emperor's fiefdom!"
"Anyone who dares to disobey the imperial decree again will be executed without mercy!"
The guards who were carrying out the orders were now terrified.
First, five hundred people were killed in an instant, and now even the city gate has been shattered with a single blow!
Magistrate Huang is a swindler!
They're not spies, it's the Emperor of Tang!
"Welcome the Tang Emperor into the city!"
In an instant, the city's soldiers knelt down in droves!
These people aren't stupid; they know that if they keep acting recklessly, they'll really lose their lives!
At that moment, a sharp shout suddenly came from the city tower.
"You blind bastards!"
"How dare you ram the Tang Emperor's carriage!"
"Quickly open!"
At this moment, a middle-aged bureaucrat with a slick face rushed down from the city wall.
The man jogged to Li Chang'an's carriage and knelt down with a thud!
Then came three loud bangs, followed by a duck-like squeal.
"Your humble servant, Huang Boren, Prefect of Jinchang, pays his respects to Your Highness, the Prince of Tang!"
"This humble official has failed in his military command, allowing these soldiers to offend Your Highness. He deserves to die!"
At this moment, Li Cunxiao jumped off his horse.
He was still holding a blood-stained lance in his hand, which terrified Huang Boren, who was drenched in sweat.
stomping on...
Bloodstains still clung to Li Cunxiao's boots.
With each step, a bloody footprint was left behind; the spear was already at Huang Boren's neck.
"My lord, please spare my life!"
"With Your Highness stationed in Shazhou, I will certainly do my utmost to assist you!"
Li Cunxiao moved his neck, and his weapon was already raised.
With just a slight movement from him, this so-called official appointed by the imperial court would be completely exposed.
"You bastard, who are you trying to intimidate!"
"go to hell!"
At the critical moment, Li Chang'an stopped Li Cunxiao.
Huang Boren deserved to die, but he died too soon.
At the very least, we should gather all the people who deserve to die together and kill them all at once.
If Huang Boren were to die now, wouldn't that be like alerting the enemy?
Shazhou is Li Chang'an's base of operations, and he will not tolerate any injustice there.
The officials in Shazhou must all be our own people. This bastard Huang Boren is clearly testing Li Chang'an's attitude with troops first.
Now they're pretending not to know anything; their acting is just too clumsy.
Li Chang'an's performance completely surprised Huang Boren.
Even if someone was a prefect appointed by the imperial court, Li Chang'an could kill them if he wanted to.
The imperial guards killed them without hesitation!
Behind Huang Boren, a group of Shazhou officials were kneeling, now trembling with fear!
Li Chang'an stepped down from the carriage and walked step by step into the city gate.
He wanted to see what the city he was going to establish himself in looked like.
This city was his first territory of his own in the world!
Jinchang City in Jinchang County, Shazhou – this is just the beginning!
To gain a foothold and lay a foundation here, fighting and killing alone is not enough.
There are several powerful clans here, and the major industries of the entire prefecture are in the hands of these clans.
After the killing, who will take over, and how to expand the business? These are all things that need to be carefully planned.
There are also those who have been ostracized by Xu Xiao, and they will all be brought under his command.
Li Chang'an said, "Prefect Huang, please get up!"
"Do your job well and manage your subordinates."
"You see, my beloved general Li Cunxiao is quite fierce!"
Huang Boren dared not look at Li Cunxiao again and immediately nodded in agreement.
"Your Highness has just arrived, and I have already prepared a banquet."
"The respected elders and prominent families of the city are all waiting to pay their respects to Your Highness!"
Li Chang'an raised an eyebrow. This is a good thing!
Gather the important people together first, and then thoroughly screen and investigate them.
It's easy to arrange things like hosting banquets, beheadings, or taking in servants.
"Lord Huang, please return to your residence first. I'd like to take a stroll around the city."
Huang Boren quickly replied, "Your Highness, your residence has been repaired."
"This humble official will accompany you to inspect the people's conditions, and then escort you back to the Prince's residence!"
Li Chang'an said, "No need!"
"Lord Huang is very busy with official duties, so please go and attend to your business."
After saying that, he got into the carriage without looking back.
The carriage moved slowly through Jinchang City, and Li Chang'an took in the scene inside the city.
Xu Weixiong gently massaged Li Chang'an's shoulders.
"Your Highness, the Northern Liang has given instructions regarding Shazhou."
"We can't let them prosper too much, otherwise it will affect the status of Beiliang."
“There must be people from Beiliang behind this Prefect Huang.”
"Today's roadblock was just a test; there may be more tricks up their sleeves later."
Li Chang'an said, "If it were when we had just left Yongzhou, I would have had some reservations."
"But now that the Guiyi Army has surrendered, we can be bolder in dealing with them."
Sweet Potato gently massaged Li Chang'an's legs, her tone soft and charming.
"With the prince's current cultivation level, they wouldn't even have a chance to assassinate him."
"I wonder what other tricks they have up their sleeves to deal with the prince."
"Sweet Potato thinks that the prince is invincible."
……
While Li Chang'an was wandering around the city, a considerable number of people had already gathered at the prefectural governor's mansion.
Besides Prefect Huang Boren and Registrar Lu Tianhe, there was also a burly man in tight-fitting clothes.
Huang Boren said, "Lord Han, Li Chang'an is truly audacious and reckless."
"The only person in the world who would dare to show such disrespect to the King of Beiliang is probably this kid."
The so-called Lord Han is none other than Han Laoshan, who serves by Xu Xiao's side.
This guard, who is at the late stage of the Profound Realm, is now here specifically on Xu Xiao's orders to cause trouble for Li Chang'an.
The primary objective, of course, was to prevent Li Chang'an from taking control of Shazhou.
