    Chapter 126, Execution

    “Marinus Flanagan, guilty of murder, subversion of government, enslavement, imprisonment… In the name of the Emperor, sentenced to death!”

    “Jesse Dutra, guilty of murder, fraud… In the name of the Emperor, sentenced to death!”

    “Lloyd Yukik, guilty of…”

    …

    Many people wearing clothes that were originally very delicate but had been stained by imprisonment and interrogation were tied up and knelt on the ground.

    They looked at Lambert sitting on the bench and reading their charges, but they did not argue silently. They

    could not speak either, because their tongues were all cut off to prevent them from speaking nonsense on such an important occasion.

    They only needed to show up here and then face their own fate.

    In fact, they were not the first batch. In front of them, there was a platform under the high platform of the trial, which was stained with blood.

    Just now, at the rhythm of ten people per batch, after the verdict was announced, they were dragged to the high platform below, and then one person’s head was facing a gun. With the order of the supervising officer, the gunshot rang out at the same time, and the kneeling people immediately fell forward, and blood spurted all over the ground.

    Then someone came up and dragged the bodies away. When the crimes of the next batch of people were read out, the workers carried buckets of water to the execution platform, and then quickly mopped it with a mop.

    This would definitely not be cleaned up in a short time. When the next batch of people were dragged over, the ground was still wet, and the smell of blood rushed straight to the nose.

    They were so scared that they wet their pants and twisted around to resist… These were all routine operations, but they were meaningless.

    Then there were more orders, more gunshots, and the next batch of people were sentenced…

    Lambert had to kill more than twenty batches of prisoners to finish killing them.

    During this period of time, under the terror politics of the renaissance inner city, almost two thousand people were arrested.

    Of course, not all of these people were brought here to be executed. On the one hand, not everyone was sentenced to death. On the other hand, it would take too much time to sentence and execute two thousand people one

    by one. Only about two hundred people were executed as a gesture. The remaining four or five hundred death row prisoners would be dealt with later.

    Among the captured prisoners, some were really not problematic, so they were released, about five hundred of them. The remaining thousand or so people were all sentenced to labor and were prepared to mine in the mine where the old site of the abandoned cave society was located.

    In the wasteland environment, these people were quite delicate and tender, and they probably had never done too much intensive physical labor. After working in the dark mine for five years, I don’t know how many people will be able to come out alive at the end of their sentence.

    And below the execution platform is the execution viewing square.

    This is located in the square in front of the Alliance Parliament Hall. It is quite large and can easily accommodate 20,000 people.

    Now, about half of them are standing here, that is, about 10,000 people.

    The people watching the execution were basically the top 10% of the inner city residents.

    They were “invited” to watch the trial, and they were very moved when they received the invitation.

    The scene at this moment, as expected, made their scalps numb.

    Among the executed, there were many people they knew and were familiar with.

    In the past, these were their leaders, their superiors, and their bosses.

    Whenever they met them, they would probably have to bow their heads and bend over, greet them nicely, and hope that they would give them a little bit of money so that they could have a good meal; if they gave them a little help, maybe they would have greater opportunities in their future lives.

    But now, these people who were once high and mighty were executed in batches in front of them like dead dogs.

    People were silent as they watched the execution.

    The Governor is serious.

    This made many of them recall the second-generation Governor six years ago…

    No, it was even more outrageous than the second-generation Governor.

    The second-generation Governor at that time had to rely on the administrative and military forces of the alliance to implement his reign of terror and levy heavy taxes. Although that era caused a terrible disaster, since administrative measures had to be implemented by the alliance system, many of them were originally within this system, and they were the ones who implemented the terror.

    Many times, terror could not fall on their heads.

    But now the new Governor is not like this. He built up a set of his own power out of thin air, and that power implemented his will. The new Governor really doesn’t need them.

    More than two thousand people were arrested, and two hundred people were on the high platform, being shot one by one, which was easier than killing pigs. This means that the ruling class under the alliance system and the leaders of almost all interest groups have been swept away.

    Isn’t this enough to reflect the Governor’s determination and ruthlessness?

    Now, they have truly felt that the situation in Fuxing City, the Alliance, and even the entire Angry Owl Star has really changed.

    …

    Gu Hang was on the highest platform, silently looking down at everything.

    The blood on the execution platform and the silent and frightened people below did not change his expression at all.

    He was indeed doing this to destroy the existing order. The goal of doing so was to clean up the house and make it easier for him to rebuild the order he wanted.

    For the people in the inner city, his methods were different from those for the outer city.

    The people in the outer city were poor, destitute, and hungry, so he used gentle methods, showed kindness, gave hope, and established prestige. Let them have enough food and clothing, let them live and work in peace, and they will naturally become their own strength.

    The people in the inner city have a good life, and it is too cost-effective to buy them with more benefits. Then he used decisive methods to implant terror into their minds so that they dare not become an obstacle to him.

    Gu Hang must not let these people in the inner city become vampires again. Not only that, he also wants the people in the inner city to bleed heavily, otherwise who will pay for the resources of the people in the outer city?

    Unlike what he imagined, after clearing out the dignitaries in the city, Gu Hang did not gain much actual value.

    Money is meaningless. The so-called Alliance Coin is a currency issued by the Alliance government and has a limited circulation range. Those things are like waste paper in Gu Hang’s eyes.

    He has not completely abolished the use of Alliance Coins, but that is only a matter of time.

    Gu Hang has no patience to engage in any financial industry here.

    Can the financial industry help pay taxes? Can you use Alliance Coins to talk to the imperial tax officials?

    Obviously not.

    Currency is just a means of regulating the economy.

    The devastating storm created by the original Angry Owl Sect helped Gu Hang a lot to some extent. When the people in the outer city had almost nothing, Gu Hang realized that he didn’t need to maintain the original financial system of Renaissance City.

    And the most important thing he got from those so-called dignitaries was the industry they originally controlled.

    Next, Gu Hang will abolish and not recognize the use of Alliance Coins to a large extent, which will directly make all the people in the inner city penniless. All the wealth they had accumulated in the past would become waste paper piled up in their home under this decision.

    They would not become penniless, after all, they still had their own house and some material savings, which was much better than the people from the outer city who had to start from scratch.

    But the past life would be gone forever.
