Those leaders look down on themselves too much.

They thought that the Yan family army was willing to rebel with them because of their appeal. In fact, it was just because the soldiers of the Yan family army saw that Cheng Yan'an and Duke Wu were gone, and it was rumored that Su Qin wanted to be the emperor, so they were willing to rebel with them.

Unexpectedly, Cheng Yanan suddenly appeared, and for some reason, just looking at Cheng Yanan from a distance made them feel a strong sense of fear from the bottom of their hearts.

This sense of fear made many soldiers immediately lose their minds and throw away their weapons.

If someone takes the lead in running away, it will be out of control.

The men were so angry that they saw the more and more soldiers of the Yan family abandoning their armor and running away: "Come back for me, come back!"

"Whoever dares to escape will be beheaded!"

But no one paid attention to them.

Soon, most of the soldiers of the Yan family army ran away.

Su Jiu raised his sword and waved it: "Catch the rebels with all their might, don't let them hurt innocent people!"

The soldiers of the Su family army immediately chased after him and shouted: "Surrender and not kill, those who resist will die."

When many soldiers of the Yan family army heard this, they immediately squatted on the ground with their heads in their hands, not daring to run away again. Sure enough, the Su family army just controlled them and did not kill them.

But more soldiers of the Yan family ran towards the city gate. They did not dare to surrender, for fear of being beheaded. After all, rebellion is a serious crime and they do not want to die.

When they ran to the city gate, they found that the city gate was wide open. The people were delighted and rushed out of the city gate quickly, thinking that they would be safe after leaving the capital.

But after they ran out of the city, they found that the city gate had already been covered with the Su family's troops.

The more than 100,000 soldiers who failed to enter the city were all waiting for them here.

The sky gradually became brighter.

All the soldiers who participated in the rebellion of the Yan family were arrested, and only a few families in the capital were broken into by the rebels, but the Su family army came in very timely, so no casualties occurred in the people.

The rebels were taken to the barracks outside the city.

All those who took the lead were arrested and brought to justice, and no one, including Zhou Xiang, successfully escaped.

Su Qin and Cheng Yanan climbed up to the platform together, and looked at the soldiers who had their weapons taken off and their armor removed, and shook their heads with regret.

"Originally, you were the heroes of the founding of the country, but now you have become rebels and prisoners. This is really disappointing. Originally, we wanted to share the prosperity together, but in the future, you are destined to pay the price for today's decision."

"Don't worry, we will not kill you. Like us, you were once the people of Daye, and you have fought side by side and contributed to the demise of the Daye Dynasty. However, you are standing opposite to the Su family army today, so your contributions will be eliminated. For a long time in the future, you will regret what you did today."

"Now, I announce that all Yan's army who participated in the rebellion will be released, but their name, household registration, and all information will be intercepted and entered the book. Within the five generations, no scientific examinations will be allowed or the army will be joined. They will pay 20% higher taxes to the court every year than ordinary people, with a period of ten years."

"The soldiers of the former Yan family army who did not participate in the rebellion were officially incorporated into the Su family army and enjoy the salary of the Su family army. If anyone wants to return home, he will apply from tomorrow and receive three months of salary and return home after approval. Within ten years, 10% of the tax can be reduced."

These measures were all thought of by Su Qin.

If there are so many people, you must not be killed. Let’s not talk about karma or karma. With so many people, it is a headache to bury wherever you kill them.

Since they are no longer trustworthy, they always have to give them a chance to reuse waste.

So, Su Qin thought of this method.

The rewards and punishments are clear, and the punishments of the rebels are used to reward those soldiers who have made contributions, which is perfect!

When the rebels heard about this, they were a little unbelievable, but then they regretted it so much that their intestines were blue.

Although they saved their lives, after returning home, what face will they have to explain to their family members, how did they cheat the whole family?

It would be easy to be unable to take the military exam within the Five Dynasties. Anyway, these people are basically muddy, so how many families can afford scholars? Even if there are scholars in the family in the future, in the Five Dynasties, including their own generation, from their grandfathers to their grandchildren, the impact is not too great.

But 20% of the taxes in those ten years were too harsh.

The 20% tax seems to be not much, but with the 50% tax originally set by the Daye Dynasty, it would be 70%!

Whether the remaining 30% of the harvest can support the family is a huge problem.

If I had known that the consequences were like this, I might as well die, at least not dragging my family down.

But if they really want to die now, they will never be willing to let go.

They should never have been able to rebel, and they should not have listened to those people's deceptions and provocations.

In fact, it doesn’t have much impact on them who is an emperor. As long as the emperor does not harm the people like the emperor of the Daye Dynasty, their lives will be the same.

Now, they have to live another ten years of hard life.

Many rebels wanted to bite the few people who fooled them into rebelling to death.

Cheng Yanan turned his head and looked at the leader who was kneeling in front.

He sneered and called out the names of several people, "You are really disappointing. Originally, I planned to arrange a decent position for you in the army so that you can have various possibilities in the future. Unfortunately, you will never have that fate."

"These brothers are brothers who have been through life and death with you. How can you bear to deceive them into fighting for you?"

"Okay, I won't say much. Those brothers who have been confused can live. You guys, let's go on the road. Be a good person in the next life and don't be confused again."

After saying that, Cheng Yanan waved his hand and asked someone to drag the leading people down to execute.

These people must die.

If you make such a big mistake, if you can survive, more people will follow suit in the future.

Finally, Cheng Yanan walked to Zhou Xiang.

Zhou Xiang's face was nowhere to be looked at at this moment, and a terrifying wound extended from her left forehead to her right chin.

Seeing Cheng Yanan stopping in front of her, she suddenly rushed over and grabbed the corner of Cheng Yanan's robe: "Brother Cheng, save me. I just like you so much and am afraid that you will be harmed by Su Qinniang, so I want to use these people's hands to rush into the palace and rescue you. I have no malicious intentions, I will never have any malicious intentions towards you. Please save me."

Cheng Yanan's face was cold, and suddenly raised his foot and kicked her in the chest.

Zhou Xiang was kicked and broke to the ground, and couldn't get up for a long time.

Cheng Yanan said with disgust: "The thing I regret most now is that I saved you. Such a selfish and lowly woman has completely lost the face of the Zhou family!"
