Late Ming Dynasty: Conquering the world starting from riding and cutting

Looking at the iron gate of Jintianwei, one of Weizhou's trophies transported from Hong Kong Island to Keelung by speedboat, Qin Hao clearly saw the proud smile between the lines of the victory document.

However, unlike other Keelung generals who led troops, Weizhou's ruthlessness was also jaw-dropping.

All the adults who were direct descendants of the Deng family were beheaded. The remaining four families, according to the picture and the reward list of the five families seized from the Deng family that day, asked the remaining four families to hand over the personnel involved in intercepting the Keelung Army.

In the victory document, Weizhou made this suggestion to Qin Hao:

Those arrested by this group of people were either killed or sent to various mining and forestry farms in Keelung to do hard labor. In short, we can't let them be so cheap, let alone let them go for the sake of stability.

We must set an example. Anyone who dares to confront our army will not end well!

This guy! What a ruthless method! But Qin Hao likes it!

This method won his heart, and the necessity of killing chickens to scare monkeys is self-evident!

"Although it is useless to kill more, since this person has offended our army, we must not let him go unpunished. Weizhou, the commander of the West Route Army, reported the name and number of this person, and the navy took over and sent him to Xina place!"

Qin Hao dropped the pen in his hand and looked at the few lines of words on the document with great satisfaction.

Thousands of people from the five ethnic groups in Jinping County (from young adults to old, weak, women and children) were all dispatched to the newly developed tenth state.

This tenth state is the region of Australia we are familiar with.

After taking the big island of Luzon, the Spanish (still a Spanish colony at this time) transferred this land to the Keelung Army. It became a place used by the Keelung Army to dispatch this group of criminals. This place was named the tenth state by Qin Hao, which probably means another state besides the nine states in the Central Plains.

"It's time to let the boys in the navy's training fleet go to the direction of the tenth state!" Staring at the newly made rough map of the tenth state on the wall, he looked at the huge map that almost occupied an entire wall.

Thinking about the land that would later be called a country riding on a sheep's back or sitting on a mine cart, as well as the large amounts of wheat and wool produced on this land, as well as the jellyfish and poisonous snakes that lived on this land. , giant crocodiles, great white sharks in the waves, kangaroos that can box, koalas that can only sleep... and other indigenous peoples.

Qin Hao felt more and more that it was right and wise to send the five major families and similar rebellious people in the future to this land!

Half a month later, thirty ships of the navy's training fleet set off for Hong Kong Island, where they would accept the thousands of exiles handed over to them by the Western Route Army, and then escort them to the Tenth Prefecture for resettlement. Simple ports and immigrant settlements were built there.

Of course, Qin Hao is not letting them fend for themselves. For the sake of safety and the livelihood of this group of people, the Keelung Army will issue them the same standard self-defense weapons as those in each fort, such as simple copper cannons, small Folang machines, and matchlock guns. Speaking of ordinary ones, such as swords and spears, they are even more common equipment.

Along with it, there were many production tools such as agricultural tools made of wrought iron and nine-turn steel.

These people are not only the exiles of the Tenth State, but also the pioneers of the Tenth State.

They may be killed or injured here, but in the end they will exert their residual heat here. This is Qin Hao's purpose, just like the British in the original time and space.

Chu Yibing, the commander of Keelung Navy's training fleet, naturally would not do the trivial and complicated things like an ordinary junior officer. After he and Weizhou explained clearly to their respective subordinates, they sat aside to drink tea and talk. Naturally, there are capable subordinates to handle the delivery of materials and personnel.

"Brother Chu, please!" Weizhou filled a small tea cup with hot tea, and gestured with his hand, asking Chu Yibing to use the tea.

"Brother Wei, please!"

Chu Yibing took a sip, and suddenly an image appeared in his eyes, but it was someone he had never seen before.

Standing at the right rear of Weizhou, a big man standing beside several soldiers, although he stood with his hands lowered, he was still full of murderous aura and Lingran.

"Who is this little brother?" Chu Yibing pointed his finger at the man with a five-foot wood-chopping knife on his back and asked Weizhou.

"Chen Jiu, come here to meet General Chu."

After calling Zhan Chenjiu over to meet Chu Yibing, Weizhou proudly introduced the origin of Zhan Chenjiu to Chu Yibing.

"This Chenjiu is a good man. He was the first to raise the banner of anti-grain and anti-taxation in Lingdong. Later, with the Zhan family as the backbone, he once had nearly 10,000 soldiers. Unfortunately, the good and the bad were mixed, and he was soon trained by the local government troops and regiments in Lingdong. The troops were besieged and dispersed. The officers and Tuan Lian pursued them all the way, but fortunately they encountered our army on the ground in Huizhou."

"General Meng did not give up and took Chen Jiu under his wing. Later, he gave Chen Jiu food, wages and weapons, and sent more than a hundred people to help Chen Jiu gather his subordinates and reorganize the camp. Chen Jiu now has two thousand men and horses under his command, all of whom use Keelung military equipment. Trained by the commander-in-chief instructors sent by the general! Fighting with the general's direct subordinates, they are already equally powerful!"

Both Wei and Chu knew very well that Zhan Chenjiu's team, whether openly or secretly, was already a peripheral force of the Keelung Army. There were no less than a dozen teams with similar status to him in Lingdong. .

They are all secretly controlled by Keelung, and there are countless others who maintain their independence but are still controlled by instructors!

Once the war breaks out, Qin Hao gives an order that within ten days, at least a hundred cities in Lingdong will change their flags.

"Brother Chu, why are you going to sea this time? Is the war going poorly with Gu Shixing of the right-wing fleet?" Weizhou was half concerned and half selfish.

He was eager to know what the situation was like in Lingxi. How was Gu Shixing, who also accepted the task of disrupting Lingxi, doing? Is he better than me or worse? They graduated together at the beginning. If the gap is too big, it won't be justified in terms of face.

"Which part do you want to listen to?

Chu Yibing slyly blinked his little eyes that were a little blurred by the sea breeze, deliberately teasing his compatriot.

"Brother Chu, tell me quickly. The military report made it very clear. You are the best informed guy who travels to various places, transporting supplies and food. If he encounters any difficulties, I can also go westward. Help him a little, after all, we are a family."

Chu Yibing looked like he believed you were a ghost, but he knew that the two of them were fighting openly and secretly.

But having said that, Gu Shixing's actions in Lingxi were much smoother than those in Weizhou.

Facing the pacifiers, local magistrates, local magistrates, local tyrants and powerful landlords from all over Lingxi, Gu Shixing, the tiger, was not polite at all and attacked them one by one.

This can bring bad luck to these local tyrants in Lingxi for eight lifetimes. They have not suffered such a big loss since Di Qing in the Song Dynasty.

The hatred accumulated from fighting enemies in the past made them watch helplessly as Gu Shixing used artillery fire to break through the fortresses and official villages that were said to be indestructible, and dragged out the powerful chieftains one by one, and displayed them in front of slaves and poor peasants. One execution.

Rivers of blood flowed for a while, and the people in Lingxi were helpless when faced with Gu Shixing's iron-blooded methods.

What Gu Shixing and Weizhou did after that were similar. They also implemented Keelung's policies to benefit the people step by step and win over people's hearts.
