The sun never sets in the Ming Dynasty

Chapter 462
At the same time, the Huang family's navy and army also cooperated to encircle and wipe out all the pirates and bandit lairs one by one. The reason why the coastal areas in Guangdong are barren is related to the excessive collection by the government, and it is also inseparable from these plentiful bandits.

This time, the Huang family horses came here to stand on their feet regardless of which force, and adopted the indiscriminate attack mode of fighting flies and tigers together, which is completely self-contained.

It is too easy to encircle and wipe out the bandits' lairs. After the propaganda, many locals will spontaneously organize themselves, pick up sticks and actively act as guides to participate in the round-up. The Huang family often only needs to send a hundred private soldiers to wipe out a gang of hundreds of bandits. .

The casualties are not too high, basically they are waiting for the wind, because the banner of the Huang family's private soldiers is also pirates, Guo Huaiyi has been in the South China Sea for more than [-] years, and he has a good reputation in the plundering industry. One of the eighteen Zhizhi of an official.

Seeing that they were rounded up by the big pirate group, the gang of petty thieves thought it was gangsters. They knew that if they did not resist or cause casualties, they would not make the opponent furious. In all likelihood, they would not be slaughtered.

Guo Huaiyi started from a sampan and developed slowly for 20 years to become one of the great pirates in the South China Sea. He led the advanced warships to wipe out the pirates in the entire vicinity of Guangdong. The results are remarkable.

Thanks to Guo Huaiyi, who sincerely serves the navy, Huang Mingdao, the top leader of the navy, is much more relaxed.

The pirates and bandits along the coasts of the mainland of Guangdong and Hainan Island were wiped out. More than [-] bandit men are being reorganized, and more than half of them are sailors making a living in the wind and waves. A short education can control who is used.

It's a pity that Liu Xiang, the number one pirate in Guangdong who had a close relationship with the Spanish and Portuguese, learned that the fleet that beat Zheng Yiguan three years ago was hunting pirates everywhere. He ran to make trouble for Su Luhai, but the Huang family's navy didn't catch him.

Later, after interrogating several pirates, I learned that Zheng Yiguan took the main force to Malacca last year. It is said that he has already taken down an island and is operating it.

There were no heavyweight opponents, and the battle was easy. Huang Mingdao even sneaked out of his busy schedule to go to Feifu Trading, and transported back more than [-] shi of rice. When he came to the Beibu Gulf side of the Dai Viet Kingdom again, his approach was very different from the past.

The Beibu Gulf is the traditional fishing ground of the Ming Dynasty and the Dayue Kingdom. The fishermen of the Dayue Kingdom and the fishermen of the Ming Dynasty often attack and rob each other.

In the past, the Huang family's fleet only robbed merchant ships and didn't bother any fishermen at all. This time, they showed their fangs. All the fishing boats they saw were captured, and all the fishermen were arrested. No matter what country they were from, they would all become the producers of protein that the Huang family asked for from the ocean in the future. .

After the Beibu Gulf is the Huang family's inner sea, all fishing boats and work boats are owned by the Huang family, and when foreign ships come, they will immediately turn them into Huang's family ships.

The Huang family's private soldiers plundered the coastal siege lands all the way under the pirate flag and basically did not cause any killings. General benefits.

When attacking villages and cities, it was found that the soldiers and civilians who fled from Huang's family did not pursue them at all, and allowed them to flee.

Therefore, the plundering of the great cause was very fruitful, the property of many big households was taken away, and many ordinary people became captives.

Even with immigrants and captured Ming soldiers and ordinary people, Hainan Island suddenly increased by 30 to [-] people.

Landlords whose property has been confiscated will also be treated differently. They usually give enough 1000 taels of silver to "Huaxia Island" to settle down in "Huaxia Island". They will resolutely suppress the rich and unkind local tyrants and evil gentry. It is also necessary to make an example when necessary. Labor reform is their responsibility. destination.

The Huang family's method of dealing with those coerced ordinary people was more scientific, and it happened to take this opportunity to break them up and bring them into the Baojia system.

The reason why the Huang family's island implemented the New Deal was vigorous and decisive because there was no deep-rooted clan system to constrain it. After this time, the most basic management system agreed by the people of Ming Dynasty was smashed and rebuilt, and the results were immediate.

Xiong Zhaogui in Lingaozhi County left his job at the end of last year. His father Xiong Tingbi died. As the eldest son, he must return to his hometown of Dingyou to guard the system.

These people had nowhere to go and all volunteered to work with the Huang family, which was no problem at all. Ge Chengjie gave them the treatment of soldiers and left them to serve.

Lingao's new magistrate has not yet taken office, because Lingao is only a lower county, and there is no second official county magistrate.

After operation, the master bookkeeper is Lu Xiuke, the head of the military intelligence department sent by the Huang family.

This kind of ninth-rank official is not in the stream, Lingao is a remote place, the county magistrate is his own, and the Huang family intends to manage small things, so the inspection, the history, the squad leader, and the third class and six-room soap are all Huang's family members. Or Xiangyong.

The instructing Wu Houlu is a scholar who has tried and failed many times. He doesn't even have a reputation for raising others. He belongs to the unhappy and depressed people.

He saw that these outsiders were inspired by Lingao's prosperous life of repairing water conservancy projects to help the poor and poor people. He followed Ge Chengjie's example and was assigned a lot of work to be busy all day long. It is the Huang family who keep their promises.

Ge Chengjie has trained more than [-] Xiangyongs. This is his response to the call of the Patriarch to be bolder and develop faster. In one year, the number of Xiangyongs has more than doubled. Among them, there are also [-] Lingao natives. .

He has more than 100 grassroots officers sent by the owner of the family and a whole 1000 mountain infantry. These are the Three Gorges trackers recruited last year. Cold weapons for half a year.

Ge Chengjie divided up 5000 troops, each of whom brought ten strong laborers, and a road construction army of [-] men began to build the coastal official road from Lingao to Thanksgiving County.

Hainan Island is low on all sides and towering in the middle, with Wuzhi Mountain and Yingge Ridge as the core of the uplift, and descends gradually to the periphery.Mountains, hills, terraces, and plains form a ring-shaped layered landform with obvious cascade structure.

There used to be an official road along the coast, but it was in disrepair for a long time and the road condition was too bad. This time, the Huang family built roads and bridges on the original foundation to ensure that four four-wheeled carriages could run side by side, and the flatness must ensure that the carriages could gallop. .

Because the owner sent hundreds of skilled craftsmen, Ge Chengjie organized the employment of [-] laborers to expand reproduction in cement factories, steel factories, brick and tile factories, ceramic kilns and other factories.

Organize 2 construction workers to go to Thanksgiving County to repair and expand the original seaport, and build grain depots that can store 50 shi of grain, mainly safe silo granaries.

There are also excellent combat effectiveness and equipment that are not inferior. Together with the three thousand Xiangyong of the Ming army and the Huang family army and the five thousand infantry of the Ming army who forced them to surrender, they began to capture the Weisuo City and all the counties and prefectures of Hainan Island one by one. It is extortionate.

Because this year, Lu Xiuke, Pan Lianggui, and Lin Chaoping, the three musketeer general banner officers who were born as the chief officers of the military intelligence department, worked steadily, and in less than a year, intelligence teams were installed in the three prefectures and ten counties of Hainan.

At the beginning of the operation, intelligence agents and soldiers with outstanding martial arts skills from Xiangyongli mixed into the undefended cities, and captured the county magistrate or Futai lord alive with almost no effort.

It is very simple to deal with the Guards Army. Surround them with the surrendered Ming Army, and then shout out to persuade them to surrender. There are also some Guards officers who think they can fight, but they are really rare.

The Huang family adopted the method of subduing others without fighting, and dispatched the Ming army to inform the officers and soldiers who were trying to hold on to the city to leave a section of the city wall. The Ming troops sent out were all locals who could speak well.

They ensured that Guo Dawang's army would not take advantage of the gap between the Ming army's departure from the city wall to suddenly enter the city, and even refused to go back, and took the initiative as hostages.

Power is proved by firepower. The field guns of the siege troops fired from a long distance, and the musketeers came a hundred paces away to fire.

After showing off the sharp firepower, the officers guarding the city looked at the battered city wall and kept silent. If they didn't follow the advice and still prepared to resist on that part of the city wall, they would be dead bodies now.

The Guards Army has degenerated to the point that it is almost the same as the peasants. Even so, it is still less than half of the number of troops. How can there be any fighting power? Who dares to fight when the city can no longer provide protection?
In the end, all the military officers are Junjie.Because they know current affairs, haha!
