Chapter 1087 (1)(2/2)
If you have a headache or a stomachache in a child, soak it in water and drink some. I heard... I heard it is quite effective.
Those toasts..., I think they smoke it a lot.
This matter was caused by an oversight by a lower-ranking official. Please be punished by the commander-in-chief!"
Kong Youde saw Li Xiao's face sinking and quickly explained.
Li Xiao has always been very strict about duck slices.
The son of the former Guangzhou magistrate Yang Baode secretly started a duck slice business, but was caught and executed by Li Xiao directly in the capital.
In Daming, this is a clear red line.
Who touches it!
Who dies!
But no matter how strict the government was, it could not control the people in the mountains.
Inside Shiwanda Mountain is the territory of these chieftains. They plant in secret, and the local government can't do anything about it.
"Haha! I didn't expect that there would be an unexpected harvest this time.
If the order is passed down, those who lead the army to produce poppy fields will be exempted from killing and exile.
This time we not only have to wipe out the rebels, but also eradicate every poppy field."
Li Xiao knows that if this kind of thing is not controlled, it will spread like a plague!
After all, because it is illegal, the price of selling this thing is too high. This is really doing business with your head!
Since the price is high, the price will naturally be higher.
An increase of three to five times is considered normal!
If there is a 50% profit, it will take desperate risks; if there is a 100% profit, it will dare to trample all laws in the world; if there is a 300% profit, it will dare to commit any crime and even risk
The danger of being beheaded.
These are the original words of Marx!
Li Xiao felt that this sentence was the most appropriate metaphor for those guys selling duck slices.
Since Li Xiao arrived in Nanning, the troops of the Second Division had been assembled in Nanning within three days.
The Gongga chieftain had collapsed. He was roaring hysterically in the room. The sweat on his body was flowing like a stream.
He begged, cursed, threatened, and finally began to induce.
Yuan Baozhong discovered that as long as he had duck slices, he could easily obtain his property.
Due to the strict control of the Ming Dynasty, Yuan Baozhong did not know the dangers of duck slices.
Today, it seemed that the Marshal's decision to ban smoking was too wise. He could not imagine what kind of damage it would cause to the Ming Dynasty once it spread.
In the end, the distinguished leader lay on the ground soaked to the skin. He had become incontinent and made the entire room stink.
He was dragged out by two tough soldiers and used a tap for half an hour to take a bath.
After smelling that there was no more stench, he put on clean clothes and was taken to see the commander.
"Gongga! If you answer my question truthfully, then you have this." Li Xiao held a box in his hand, which contained a dark object.
"Definitely! Definitely!" Seeing the black thing, Gongga's eyes flashed like a wolf.
He hurriedly nodded his head like a chicken pecking at rice.
Two strong soldiers behind him were holding his joints tightly. The guy was twisting his body like a maggot, trying to pounce and swallow what Li Xiao was holding into his stomach.
Li Xiao was very satisfied with Gonggar's situation. Whatever he asked at this time, he would answer truthfully.
At this time, human thinking no longer works.
"How many rebels are there?" Li Xiao asked the first question.
"One hundred thousand people." Gongga replied without thinking.
"You lied!" Li Xiao shouted sharply, causing the generals and officers around him to tremble in fright.
"I'm not lying, there are really 100,000 people. They are all Miao soldiers from the Miao village, and the leader is Chief Long Ni Sangjiu." Gongga gasped from a distance, and swallowed his saliva when he saw the thing in Li Xiao's hand.
"What the hell? Long Ni Sangjiu...! Japanese?" Li Xiao felt that this guy's name was very similar to the name of a Japanese.
"Commander, this Long Ni Sangjiu is the largest Miaoman chieftain in Guangxi.
Long is his family's Han surname, Ni is his own name, Sang is his father's name, and Jiu is his Miao surname."
Seeing that Li Xiao was puzzled, Kong Youde who was beside him quickly came over to explain.
Li Xiao really didn't know that there were so many opinions on the lives of Miao villagers.
But since they’re not Japanese, it’s easy to handle!
Just think about it, how could the Japanese people on the other side of the sea go to camp in the mountains and become the leader?
Later, Li Xiao asked one by one about the weapons and supplies of the rebels, as well as which members of the rebels were elites and which were cannon fodder.
Sure enough, Gongga mentioned two artillery pieces.
These two artillery pieces were howitzers that were smuggled in secretly on the ship. Although Gongga didn't know the specific caliber, but since the Liuzhou city wall collapsed after just five shells, Li Xiao knew that the caliber of the cannons would not be too small.
.
Li Xiao has been to Liuzhou and knows that although the city wall there is not as good as Nanning, it can be considered as a high city and a deep city!
After only five shells, a hole was torn open.
It can be seen that this shell is very powerful. It is estimated to be at least 105 mm, maybe even 120 mm.
The reason why he stopped using it after blasting a hole was because Li Xiao probably didn't have enough shells.
After asking a lot of questions, Li Xiao walked out of the house. The moment he stepped out, he threw out the black piece in the iron box in his hand.
There was a beast-like sound inside the house!
Li Xiao sighed, if a person encounters this thing, he will be a useless person.
Soon, Long Ni Sangjiu, whose name resembled that of a Japanese man, could not hold back his anger. The Miao soldiers, who had been delayed for more than 20 days, officially began to attack the Ming Dynasty.
There was only so much food looted from Liuzhou, and the people here were too poor. Long Nisangjiu sent troops to loot for several days, but he didn't get many kilograms of food.
According to the custom of the Han people, they will bury all their property in the ground.
Many times, his wife would not even tell his wife about this kind of thing. Moreover, he would also order that once he died, he would leave it to his fiancée to deal with it.
