Chapter 524: Shocking Military Exercise



The first step is to show off their muscles, and many people dare not come to sue the Five Tigers Gang mainly because they are worried that the Jeju Army will not be able to cover it, and after a while, they left like a small whirlwind, and the Five Tigers Gang still resurrected as before.

immediately called Ruan Xiaoqi and Huang Xin over.

Chao Gai said: "We have just arrived, the locals don't know our strength, and they are not convinced of us. From today, the military flag will be hung and the flag of the Jeju Army will fly in the air. ”

"Yes." Two people.

"Huang Xin, I order you to start patrolling the larger villages and town shops from tomorrow to maintain law and order. I want your fifteen hundred cavalry to pretend to be five thousand cavalry, can you do it? Chao Gai asked.

Huang Xin has a very good brain, and immediately said: "Yes, I guarantee to complete the task." ”

What to do is not something for Chao Gai to consider, Huang Xin went down.

Ruan Xiaoqi said: "Do you want our naval army to fire a few cannons, let the people here open their eyes and see the power of our artillery." ”

Chao Gai nodded, the day after tomorrow a fleet drill will be held on the beach, and the Seventh Fleet will shell the shore targets, you go and prepare, remember, the formation must be large, and if we want to stabilize the people's hearts, we must let the people think that we have the strength. ”

Ruan Xiaoqi said: "Don't worry, the firepower of the Seventh Fleet is the most powerful. ”

Chao Gai nodded, the firepower of the Seventh Fleet is indeed very fierce, there are more than 60 guns on the Jiaolong, more than 40 guns on the Flying Eagle, and nearly 700 guns on the fifteen warships.

Early the next morning, Huang Xin set out with his troops, and the 1,500 cavalry were divided into three teams, the first team wore cowhide armor and carried bows and arrows with cavalry swords. The second team wore iron armor and carried spears. The third team wears the most common cloth uniforms and carries a simple knife.

The three teams of men and horses are at the same time, relying on changing clothes and weapons to create the illusion that there are many soldiers and horses, anyway, the people nearby can be regarded as opening their eyes, one will see a group of lancers, one will see a group of cavalry with bows and arrows, and one moment will see cavalry with knives. Originally, there were only three teams, but the flags were prepared a lot, and the flags were all numbered to the tenth team.

Changing costumes, changing weapons, patrolling back and forth, not to mention ordinary people, even professional scouts may not be able to investigate how many soldiers there are. There were more than 60,000 people in the entire area of more than 100 miles around Taipei, and this shocked people, and some people were worried that the Jeju army would not be able to deal with the Five Tigers, but now no one would have such thoughts.

The Five Tigers Gang only has 500 thugs, but the Jeju Army has 5,000 cavalry alone, all of which are the real elite of steel swords and fast horses, and the cavalry has steel armor, cowhide armor, all kinds of things.

On the third day, that is, on the twenty-second day of the first month, the dock was crowded with people, there were almost 30,000 people here, why did so many people come, there are two things, the first thing is that you can see artillery, what is artillery, the people don't know, anyway, it is a very powerful weapon. The second thing is that after watching the artillery, there are trading houses that distribute free clothes and low-cost farm tools, and more importantly, the trading houses wait until the season to buy fruits, so most of the people who can come come.

Thousands of cavalry and hundreds of infantry maintained order together, although there were many people, but the order was still very good, on the beach, everyone looked forward to the distance.

Chao Gai, Luo Yun, and dozens of respected old people in the local area, as well as some of their big businessmen, were invited by Chao Gai to stand behind Chao Gai and watch together.

A platoon commander was in charge of explaining to them, and at this time the fleet appeared, and the battleships with white smoke slowly drove over like small ones.

"This is our Seventh Fleet, a total of fifteen capital warships. They are all powered by steam engines, and they sail without wind. The platoon commander explained.

Although everyone didn't know what a steam engine was, they didn't want to ask, and slowly the battleship came, and stopped a few dozen meters away before they saw that it was bigger, and that head, that block was as tall as a building, and I don't know how much bigger than the fisherman's boat.

"There are also such big ships in Quanzhou Port, but they have to use sails, but I didn't expect there to be big ships without sails." A knowledgeable boss sighed.

"Not only can you do without sails, but it is also loaded with huge artillery, and the sound of the explosion is like thunder, listen to my signal for a while, remember to cover your ears."

After a while, a herald came over and asked Chao Gai to say that the drill was ready, please instruct. Chao Gai said, go on.

Immediately, fifteen warships lined up and opened fire on the preset target area on the shore. The smoke instantly enveloped the huge warship, followed by a violent explosion on the shore, and the smoke and dust were everywhere, and the target straw man was on fire, which soon turned into a pile of fire.

The people were shocked, they had never expected artillery to be so powerful.

The group of local leaders behind Chao Gai were also shocked, Chao Gai looked back at them and said, "How is it, is our army strong?" ”

"Strong, strong, strong soldiers." Everyone nodded their heads.

Chao Gai said: "Don't underestimate that there are only fifteen warships, but they have seven hundred guns, and the battleships are not open to the public at ordinary times, I will ask you to take a look at it later, but the things on the ship are not allowed to be touched." ”

After a while, Chao Gai took dozens of people on a centipede ship and boarded a Jiaolong battleship, and only when he got on the ship did he feel mighty, and the huge battleship was full of iron armor that made people feel suffocated.

The giant cannon on the first deck weighs more than 3,000 catties, where have these bosses seen this thing, and they can't close their mouths in surprise. The sailors on the deck of the battleship are also all mighty, holding sabers and standing straight.

After visiting the warship, Chao Gai arranged to send them back, as for the ordinary people, they did not have such a good treatment, they could only look at the warship from a distance, and after a while, the warship drove away. The people went to see the place where the shelling had just begun, and saw that there was a pit on the ground, and there was a humane: "The ground can make such a pit, what will happen if you hit the head." ”

Another said: "What else can you do if you smash your head, of course there is nothing." ”

After seeing the shocking battleship, and then the trading house began to shout, all kinds of free giveaways, all kinds of cheap items, of course, merchants are chasing profits, whether it is gifts or price reductions, they are all for a long-term benefit.

In just four days, the people near Taipei were convinced and came to report the evil deeds of Nan Batian. I don't know if I don't look at it, but when I look at it, the group of people led by Nan Batian has dozens of lives.

It is not appropriate for Chao Gai to try such a complicated case by himself, after all, it is not his profession, but the local people are waiting to see the results. In order to settle down as soon as possible, Chao Gai was a blue sky for a while, and on the day of the trial, there were more than 10,000 people who came to watch, and there were a sea of people.

The accompanying painter Zhang Zeduan helped a lot, it turned out that Chao Gai thought that this kid would drink and paint, but he didn't expect that the trial of the case was okay, the copywriting was handled, witnesses, exhibits, testimony, and the body was inspected. There are more than twenty lives just based on evidence, not to mention ordinary injuries. It took a day of trial to figure out a rough idea.

Chao Gai asked Zhang Zeduan: "How do you think this case should be judged?" ”

Zhang Zeduan said: "In troubled times, human life is not as good as grass, depending on the general's meaning, the five bandit leaders must not be kept, and the backbone of his subordinates must also be seen, as for those thugs and younger brothers, there is no need to be so strict." ”

Chao Gai clicked his mouth, it really makes sense.

Chao Gai said, "Okay, let's pronounce the sentence." Nan Batian and a group of thirty-two core members will be killed at noon tomorrow, and the thugs will all be sent to Black Dragon Island to mine for three years, and they will regain their freedom after three years. ”

After Chao Gai Lang announced the verdict, the entire people who watched the excitement cheered, shouting Chao Qingtian one by one, and Chao Gai was also a little proud.

That night, Zhang Zeduan carefully verified and formulated the dossier, and the next day Nan Batian's group of core 32 people were beheaded on the beach, and from then on, the island of Taiwan could be regarded as ending the chaotic and disorderly state.

Taiwan has already done it, and it cannot relax how to develop it. Rice, fruits, and fishing will be the main development projects here. Chao Gai led more than a dozen people in charge of agriculture to go around for two days and found that there were quite a lot of agricultural problems in Taiwan. Similar to the situation in Shinjeju, there are too few cattle to cultivate, and almost all of them rely on manpower, which is the biggest problem, you must know that it takes several days to dig up one acre of rice field with a shovel, but if you change the cattle, you can cultivate more than two acres of land in one day.

The second is that there is almost no water conservancy in farmland, and it is difficult to drain water when it rains, and it is difficult to water dry fields. Then there is the difficulty of the road, and there are small roads everywhere. The first step is to plough the cattle, the rice fields need to be buffaloes, there are a lot of cattle in Heilong Island, but it is difficult to adapt to the environment here. Buffalo also had no difficulty in buying buffaloes, so they went to Fujian and Zhejiang on the opposite side to purchase buffaloes, and then sold them on credit to farmers who could not afford to buy cattle in installments. All of a sudden, many farmers are happy and dizzy, more than a dozen acres of paddy fields at home, and now there are ploughing cattle, paddy fields are different from the dry land in the north, most of the years are still very abundant, and the paddy fields can also raise a small amount of fish, or there is a land of fish and rice.

In total, there were only 50,000 peasants, and five or six thousand ploughing cattle were almost solved. The docks trimmed by the Seventh Fleet were completed by their own engineers and sailors, and there were too many things to do, and it was impossible to stay here for long. Hu Cheng wants to lead the caravan to continue doing business, and he will set off immediately.

With Ruan Xiaoqi on the sea and Huang Xin on the land, Chao Gai is still very relieved, as long as these two people don't make big mistakes, there will be no problems. But the problem is that neither of these two people is the material for governing the locality, not to mention that the army cannot govern the locality, and Taiwan needs a county order.
