Chapter 45: Destroy the Hu family
The little monkey and the big cow listened to Yang Baihu's words, just like a primary school student listening to a professor's lecture, listening to it very fascinated, very serious, and very devoted, but they just couldn't understand it, but they had to nod desperately, feeling that everything was right. What Yang Baihu said, Qin Yiming can almost understand.
"Yang Baihu, then how do you think we should attack the Hu family?" Qin Yiming asked, when he asked for advice, his attitude was still very sincere.
"It's a simple solution, but it takes a group of dead soldiers!" Yang Baihu's face was expressionless.
"Why?" Qin Yiming asked.
"Even Qi Shaobao's three-stage style can make up for the shortcomings of the slow shooting speed of the bird gun, but compared to the archers, it is still very slow, so we only need to say that the archers are sent within a hundred steps, but at this distance of a hundred steps, the archers need to have a group of people in front of them who are not afraid of death to block the bullets!" Yang Baihu said.
Qin Yiming nodded.
"Dead? The lives of everyone in my Pingli Fort are honored, who can I send to death, and I don't need to, I believe that the shield battalion can do it! Qin Yiming believed that the bird gun at this time should not be enough to penetrate the solid iron shields of his shield battalion.
The next day, Hu Fu.
"Master, it's not good, our house is surrounded by soldiers from thousands of households!" The butler rushed to report in a hurry, and one accidentally hit the threshold with his foot and almost fell headlong.
"Look at you, look at you, an old bone, follow me for decades, what kind of wind and waves have you not seen, a few sucks of soldiers and ruffians scared you like this? Let them come, if they come, they will be sent to death, go and distribute all the firearms to me, and let those hillbillies see how powerful my firearms are! Hu Shoucai didn't panic at all, he was still eating breakfast on the table, drinking gruel, and still didn't get up.
At this time, he heard the shouting from outside: "Listen to the people inside, you have all been surrounded, hurry up and surrender, confess leniently, and resist strictly!" ”
"His grandmother's doesn't let people shout after breakfast, I think it's frank and lenient, sitting in prison, resisting strictly, go home for the New Year!" Hu Shoucai dropped the dishes and chopsticks in his hand and walked out angrily.
Hu Shoucai climbed the ladder with difficulty, looked at the situation outside, and immediately laughed, "A bunch of cowards, standing so far away, actually asked Lao Tzu to go out and surrender, all for Lao Tzu to listen, today you beat me hard, kill a Lao Tzu and reward ten taels of silver!" He clearly saw that those so-called soldiers were standing a few hundred steps away, and there were a large number of people around, all of whom came to see the excitement, and they were even farther away.
Next, Hu Shoucai saw a group of soldiers with huge iron round shields, iron hats, and spears appearing, followed by some soldiers, all of whom were archers, and they slowly approached his side.
"Beat me hard!" Hu Shoucai ordered.
Bang bang bang
Dangdang
Hu Shoucai's bird gun fired, hitting the shield of Qin Yiming's guards, making a bell-dangling sound.
The bullets from the bird guns did not stop the advance of the guards soldiers, they advanced slowly, but they kept advancing, and the lead bullets that were fired were successfully blocked by iron shields, and of course there were occasional injuries, but rarely.
When the soldiers who were about to arrest him got closer and closer, Hu Shoucai began to get nervous: "Give Lao Tzu a hard beating, quickly!" Kill one and reward a hundred taels of silver! ”
But it still didn't work, Hu Shoucai was really nervous at this time, he felt bad, at this time, the archers hiding behind the shield began to shoot arrows, a wave of arrows rained down, Hu Shoucai's more than a dozen family members were injured, screaming again and again, and some died directly.
"Master is dangerous!" An arrow almost hit Hu Shoucai, scaring Hu Shoucai enough, and the housekeeper next to him desperately pulled Hu Shoucai and wanted to pull him down.
"Hit me, hit me hard!" Hu Shoucai roared frantically while helping the housekeeper to retreat desperately, he was also afraid of death, and he was also afraid of being shot, and several people had already died around him.
After a few rounds of shooting, Hu Shoucai's family became fewer and fewer, and at this time Hu Shoucai's face turned pale and wanted to escape, but he had no chance.
Money is very important, but compared with life, money is of course more noble than life.
When Hu Shoucai's family was shot and killed dozens of people, many people gave up shooting, and they chose to surrender, and at this time everyone knew that they could not win against these people in front of them.
Although Hu Shoucai is still swearing how much to give as much as he wants, no one listens to him anymore, and those family members are also afraid of death, usually they can be powerful and oppress the people, but after all, they are not used to life and death, and they have not reached the realm of putting life and death out of the way.
"You dog slaves who are greedy for life and afraid of death, I am not thin on you on weekdays, cheer me up, pick up a gun and shoot me!" Hu Shoucai was still yelling there, but no one paid attention to him, even the housekeeper Hu beside him also persuaded: "Master, surrender, we lost!" ”
Hu Shoucai saw that those private armor had given up resistance, and he was desperate at this time, all because of his blind confidence and arrogance, and now he can only be captured and slaughtered by others, his eyes are full of despair, and he has lost the light of the past.
When everyone gave up resistance, Qin Yiming entered the Hu Mansion very smoothly, arrested Hu Shoucai and others, and when they came out, the surrounding people looked at this group of soldiers, their eyes were different, and the people's eyes were a little more fearful and a little more respectful.
The guards of Pingli Fort are no longer the soldiers who ran away when they saw bandits, now they are a team that dares to fight bandits and kill bullies, no one in Anlu County dares to despise this army anymore, as soldiers, dignity is killed!
According to the previous agreement, Qin Yiming sent Hu Shoucai to the yamen to wait for Sun Shirui's trial, and he himself was in the Hu family for three days and three nights, he separated the people of the Hu family, and let them confess to the Hu family's money and other storage places, if they were not separated, he was afraid that these cunning witnesses would be cross-infected and collude together to deceive themselves, and it was precisely because of his method that the Hu family's family wealth was searched by him, including two surprises that he couldn't imagine, the first was under the soil in the Hu family's backyard, Hu Shoucai's elders actually buried 300,000 taels of silver, a foreign economist once said that in this era, the world's silver has flowed into China's ultimate secret cellar, one is because the Ming Dynasty has always been a trade surplus, silver flows in or out, but there is another layer of meaning I am afraid that just like their Hu family, bury the silver deeply, do not let him continue to circulate in the market, no wonder Hu Shoucai's family was surrounded and he was unwilling to escape; The second surprise is that the Hu family's Hu housekeeper confessed, Hu Shoucai secretly built a firearms workshop in a manor outside the county, that is, the arsenal, although the scale is not large, but it can produce more than 100 guns a year, and it can also produce the corresponding **, according to the old housekeeper, Hu Shoucai invested more than 100,000 taels of silver for this arsenal, ready to be an arms supplier and sell arms in the future, this news is too surprising for Qin Yiming, and at the same time he also admires Hu Shoucai's unique vision, and he actually thought of doing arms business, If he really does it, I'm afraid it will be very promising by then! But it's a pity that this fruit was picked by him, of course, the Hu family's land deed, by the way, was also taken by Qin Yiming, Qin Yiming found out for the first time, it turned out that the war was such a lucrative business, he had a feeling of falling in love with being a bandit, and this feeling is really cool, it can make you start from scratch, the most important thing is that the money comes quickly, and you don't need to work hard and develop obscenely like before.
