Chapter 414: It's the cannon that makes them hospitable

At the Jinling Ferry, Hou Xuanyan personally sent a group of old subordinates to the road to the grassland, and instructed them to distinguish between friend and foe in the grassland.

As long as he submits to the north, he is his own people who can be united, and anyone who does not return to Jingbei and supports troops in the grassland, no matter what attitude he has now, is an enemy.

Hu Bawan, Zheng Pengfei and others are all veterans of the Northern Expedition, although they are not very old, they have fought a lot of battles. This group of generals went to the north, not empty-handed, as long before the wedding, the soldiers and horses of various provinces had been transferred to the grassland in large batches.

Fighting the grasslands was not as immediate as fighting Japan, and as soon as he won the right to open a business in Japan, he had already earned a huge fortune. The interests of the grassland can only be manifested slowly. As long as Jingbei Province is pacified, and the vast territory reaches the north of Beihai (Lake Baikal), the invasion of the steppe peoples near the Great Wall for thousands of years will be completely resolved.

With the grassland, the Han people also have a place to raise horses, and the once miserable horse households of the Ming Dynasty can finally be abolished. These poor people, who have raised horses all their lives, have raised their own families and are often exploited by officials, which is simply miserable, and there are many rebellions in Shandong in the Ming Dynasty, and the reason is that the horse household system is unreasonable.

Hou Xuanyan looked at the group of generals who had gone away, and his heart was full of confidence that the constantly innovative weapon manufacturing technology of the arsenal in Songjiang Mansion was the strongest bargaining chip in pacifying the grassland.

Not in a word, since the advent of machine guns and cannons, the steppe nomads have become hospitable and able to sing and dance.

If Jingbei continues to expand, the nomads on the grassland will obtain the identity of the Ming people, and they can enter the customs and trade, and there will be no trade barriers. Then their living standards will rise hundreds of times, and whoever is born willing to fight is forced by life.

After sending off the generals and walking to the city gate, a knight came on horseback.

Seeing Hou Xuanyan's guard of honor from a distance, the knight turned his horse's head and ran to Hou Xuanyan's body, and the soldiers recognized it as Chen Changzhi of the Hidden Elephant Battalion and did not stop him.

"Lord Wang, there is a battle report from the southwest."

Hou Xuanyan frowned, looking at Chen Changzhi's appearance, it didn't look like good news. But the southwest's own bureau is foolproof, unless a thunder chops all his flags to death, otherwise it will be difficult for those toasts to turn over.

"Say!"

Chen Changzhi paused for a moment and said: "After Guizhou changed its land and returned to the stream, a group of local officials who did not leave their original fiefdoms instigated their subordinates to commit murder and provoke hatred among all ethnic groups. Now the Miao, Dong, Buyi, Shui, Han, Yi, Yao, Hui, Gelao and other ethnic groups are fighting each other, and the situation has gotten out of control. The local government had very few troops and could not control these unruly natives at all, and the magistrates of Chixi and Zhonglin were killed in battle, and other officials had fled to Tongren Mansion to seek refuge. ”

Hou Xuanyan's eyebrows flew obliquely like sideburns, his eyes were round with anger, and he scolded: "What about Peng Zhuze? ”

"Peng Zhuze surrounded the remnants of the Tusi soldiers and horses in Jiuqu Mountain, preparing for the final decisive battle." After Chen Changzhi finished speaking, he secretly raised his eyes and saw Hou Xuanyan's expression, and secretly said in his heart that this is over, the prince is angry, and there will be dead people in the southwest.

Hou Xuanyan breathed a long sigh of relief, and said with a smile: "This incident is said to be a war report, but it doesn't count, in my opinion, it's more like a case." ”

Chen Chang was stunned and asked, "The case?" ”

"That's right, it's hundreds of thousands of murders, and it's not okay to send a general for this kind of thing, I think you're very suitable." Hou Xuanyan stretched out his hand and pointed at it, Chen Changzhirao was the living king of the Hidden Elephant Camp, and his brain was stagnant for a while.

What followed was ecstasy, but Chen Changzhi still said modestly: "Humble duty... I'm afraid it's hard to do it. ”

"Don't take it as a fight, those people don't deserve to fight us, this is the case, we are law enforcers, they are criminals and victims." Hou Xuanyan said in a deep voice: "You remember, those who pick quarrels and provoke trouble and hurt others will be killed!" Kill one to make an example, kill a hundred to make an example, and if you can't do it, kill 10,000. The local people who are instigated by others to make trouble and kill people, it is also a hidden danger to keep them sooner or later, we have no shortage of such people in the Ming Dynasty, and I don't feel distressed about how much I kill. ”

Chen Changzhi hugged his fists and said: "I understand that I understand that I must handle this case beautifully to repay the prince's kindness." ”

Hou Xuanyan said with satisfaction: "I'll give you a command flag, you have the right to mobilize all the troops on the ground in Guizhou, go ahead, and set off today." ”

In the lair of the submarine camp under Qinglong Mountain, all the spies stared at Chen Changzhi with envy, this kind of opportunity was hard to come by, and it was simply the treatment of the governor of Guizhou.

Chen Changzhi gathered a few capable subordinates, and with a simple seal, he was ready to set off. A few knights in the distance rode their horses, but when they got closer, they were the prince's own soldiers.

"Where's Commander Chen?" The pro-soldier Zhang Yizhu asked.

"What?" The Hidden Elephant Battalion has its own rules, and even the prince's own soldiers can't be easily put in.

"We were ordered to come and deliver the official seal and the prince's handwritten letter." Zhang Yiguan said with a smile, and only after the sentry of the Hidden Elephant Battalion took over the things did the two leave.

The younger soldiers complained: "The rules in this place are really big, and we can't stop their people from looking for the prince." We can't even get through the door when we come here. ”

Zhang Yiguan scolded: "You don't talk nonsense here, what is the location of the submarine elephant camp, since there are rules that can be followed, what special are you, what chicken feathers you have." He has been with Hu Bawan for a long time, and he speaks and swears with a Shandong flavor, which makes the juniors smile and dare not fight back.

Tongren Mansion, Shibing County, Guizhou.

It used to be a place where all kinds of ethnic groups were mixed, but now the streets are full of chaotic people, and many dead bodies are lying on the streets and no one has to clean them up.

The neighbors who used to be close to each other are killing each other like crazy these days. Ethnic hatred is stirred up, and invariably erupts into extraordinarily brutal massacres.

There is no need for any other reason, just a sentence that any tribe deserves to die, they robbed our ancestors of the land, and their wealth should have been ours. Human nature is so untested, since ancient times such conflicts have occurred from time to time, in the past, there were toasts in the southwest to press, those who have been enslaved by the toast for thousands of years do not dare to make times. Now that the Han Chinese officials, who are cowardly and incompetent in their eyes, have become emboldened.

In a secluded courtyard, several leading native officials gathered together. Ironically, the heads of people outside are beaten into dogs' heads, but these local officials of various ethnic groups who provoke disputes get along very well.

Amberley is a branch of the original Shuixi, during the Rebellion of Luxury, the An family lineage was wiped out, and their vein survived because of the distance between them by blood. Glancing at the anxious crowd, Amber said with a smile: "You don't have to worry, the Han people pay attention to the law and do not blame the public. This time the matter is to let them know that the matter of changing the land and returning to the stream will not work in our world, and there will be chaos here without Tusi. ”

"Those toasts died, those who fled, and in the end, the court didn't want to use us." The other voice was unpredictable, and the one who spoke was a fat man named Cao Xirui, who was also a local official of a large tribe, and there were many loyal local people under the hands of this kind of local official, who were brainwashed and raised, and had long lost the instinct to resist from generation to generation.

These local officials are staggered, eating and drinking, the outside world is still bloody and bloody, and beastly battles are going on everywhere.

The Han people have always been bullied in this land, because there are many Han people, but they are not as united as other ethnic groups. Moreover, in the past, the Han people did not have a toast, there was no leader, and after the incident, most of the local officials wanted to calm the people, if they forced a certain toast to rebel, the court would investigate it, but they couldn't eat and walk around.

The combination of these reasons has cultivated the weak folk customs of the Han people here, and the weak are destined to be slaughtered in such a chaotic situation.

-----

As the deputy commander of the Hidden Elephant Battalion, Chen Changzhi didn't know how many people he had killed, but when he saw the tragic situation in the southwestern counties, he still felt a shock in his heart.

The trees were littered with corpses, each of which had been brutally abused and mutilated everywhere.

The women and girls who had been raped were tied to the side of the road, some of them dead, some of them still dying.

"Murder, arson, and looting," paused for a moment, and Chen Changzhi continued in a condensed voice: "There is no forgiveness for killing!" ”

The knights behind him answered the promise and scattered, and the defenders of Tongren on the periphery were coming on orders.

At night, in Cao's mansion, Cao Xirui was sleeping, and the door of the bedroom was suddenly smashed into pieces with a "bang", and Cao Ruixi was awakened from his sleep.

"Who?"

What answered him was a sword light, the wooden bed was smashed, the slag of wood was splashed with blood, and the bloody gas instantly filled the entire bedroom.

Cao Xirui's guards were already dead, and the corpses were neatly placed in front of his mansion, and a pile of minced meat and a head were also carried to the door by the spies.

It is not difficult to investigate the matter of instigating the natives to make trouble, especially for the submarine elephant camp, and after a little inquiry, you will know who the culprits are.

Amber was just about to fall asleep, when he heard what seemed to be a dog barking in the courtyard, he came to the door with a red candle, and suddenly hung a man in black with a demon mask from the door.

This surprise was not trivial, Amber raised the candlestick, and was about to fight with a strange scream. With a bang, the palm of his hand holding the candlestick was cut off by Qi Gen and rolled to the ground.

Under the severe pain, Amberie fell to the ground and wailed, and the barking of the dogs in the courtyard became louder and louder, and Amberie struggled to crawl into the house, shouting in his mouth: "Who are you, who are you going to kill me, whether you are a human or a ghost." ”

He was greeted with another stab, and his left arm fell to the ground. A moment later, another man in the same costume came in from outside, holding a meteor hammer in his hand. The visitor seemed to be very dissatisfied and asked, "Why haven't you finished it yet?" ”

"Don't worry, this is the last one, we have time."

The man with the hammer scolded: "Lao Tzu is so sleepy, I came here from Qinglong Mountain, and I didn't sleep well all the way, how can I have time to waste here." Hurry up and get done and go back to sleep. After saying that, he stepped forward with two hammers and completely smashed the leg strand of Ember's calf.

The two men dragged him to the door, pressed him against the door, and the spies with the knife cut out several large wooden nails with a short blade, and smashed the wooden nails against the door with a hammer. The wooden pegs went through Amber's arms and thighs, and his voice was hoarse after wailing for too long, and no one in the surrounding house came out to watch. The doors of every house were closed, and they thought that they were seeking revenge during the day and were torturing people of other races.

At the same time, the same drama was being played out in other counties.

Wherever there was trouble, the local magistrates were slaughtered with the most brutality.

Early the next morning, when the natives were recuperating and were about to continue to make trouble on the street, they suddenly found that the door of their respective lord was full of blood.

These local officials, who are high in their eyes on weekdays, died even more tragically than the people they killed.

The natives' eyes were bloodshot, and they became even more frenzied, believing that this was a massacre by other alien races. They took up all kinds of weapons and ran through the streets, killing people everywhere with red eyes.

But soon they fell silent, and the earth seemed to shake, and the soldiers and horses that poured in from all directions shook the sky.

Chen Changzhi reined in front of the city, waved the long knife in his hand, and the suspension bridge in the small county town fell down.

"After entering the city, I will check from house to house, and all the natives with blood stains in their clothes will be killed!" The soldiers complied with their promise and rushed into the city.

The natives, who have been addicted to killing people for several days, have ushered in a group of professionals, and these people are more comfortable killing people than them.

There was no delay in the rise and fall of the knife, and in just three days, not a single native of several counties was killed.

Unexpectedly, under such high pressure, no one rebelled. In the past, when there was a slight disobedience, these people would rebel and refuse to give up only when they got benefits. But they really raised the butcher's knife, and when the bloody smell of killing in the southwest was permeating, these people were honest.

If it were an ordinary official, if he was killed to this point, he would have been scared a long time ago. But after all, Chen Changzhi was born in the Hidden Elephant Battalion, and there were more than 10,000 people killed in a single monarchicide case.

Just when the local officials said that it was enough, Chen Changzhi still refused to stop, and the house-to-house investigation continued, and there were corpses piled up everywhere outside the small city.

The Han people who were hiding at home finally dared to come out, and these people did not have extra kindness to sympathize with the natives. Not long ago, they were the targets of the natives, and when they got revenge, they wept bitterly.

Soon, the impeachment of Chen Changzhi flew like snowflakes to Hou Xuan's case, and he threw them all into the pile of papers. A woman's kindness can't change the problems that have been cultivated over the years, but a massacre can have an immediate effect. In the face of the natives of other ethnic groups who made trouble, Hou Xuanyan knew that his trick was powerful, and blindly connived at preferential treatment, which would not be recognized and submitted by other ethnic groups, but would only make them feel that the Han people were weak and could be bullied.

No single national integration has been achieved through completely non-violent means, and this is no different.

In the southwest, the natives fled to the mountains, and Chen Changzhi set fires. Fleeing to the high platform barrier, Chen Changzhi will shoot cannons, anyway, he has the right to mobilize the resources of the entire Guizhou. Finally, half a month later, Hou Xuanyan closed the knife....

Since then, there have been no similar riots and rebellions in the Southwest.
