Chapter 461: I Am the Alone
At the same time, the Huang family's navy and army also cooperated to encircle and annihilate all the pirate and bandit nests one by one, and the reason why the coastal areas in Guangdong were barren was related to the government's expropriation and extortion, and it was also inseparable from these numerous bandits.

The Huang family and horses came here this time to gain a foothold regardless of that force, and adopted an indiscriminate attack mode in which flies and tigers fought together, which was completely a momentum that was the only one.
It is too easy to encircle and annihilate one bandit lair after another, and after publicity, many locals will spontaneously organize themselves to pick up sticks and take the initiative to participate in the round-up as guides, and the Huang family often only needs to send a private soldier of 100 to eliminate a gang of bandits of several hundred people.
The casualties will not be large, basically they will fall from the wind, because the banner of the Huang family's private soldiers is also pirates, Guo Huaiyi has been in the South China Sea for more than 20 years, and his reputation in the robbery industry is not simple, and he was once one of the eighteen Zhi of the first Kou Zheng Yiguan in the South China Sea.
Seeing that they were rounded up by the big pirate group, the gang of little thieves thought that it was black eating black, and knew that if they did not resist and did not cause casualties to the other party, they would not make the other party angry, and there was a chance that the minions would not be slaughtered.
Guo Huaiyi started from a sampan and slowly developed for 20 years to become one of the great pirates in the South China Sea, he led advanced warships to eliminate the pirates near the entire Guangdong, and he was very handy in order to earn meritorious service.
Because of Guo Huaiyi, who sincerely serves the navy, Huang Mingdao, the top leader of the navy, is much more relaxed.
The pirates and bandits along the coast of the mainland of Guangdong and the coast of Hainan Island were swept away, and more than 20,000 thieves and thieves were being reorganized, more than half of them were sailors who begged for a living in the wind and waves, and most of the fishermen were born, and these people belonged to the objects that could be controlled and used after a short period of education.
It's a pity that Liu Xiang, the number one pirate in Guangdong, who had a close relationship with the Spanish and Portuguese, learned that the fleet that beat Zheng Yiguan all over the ground three years ago went everywhere to suppress the pirates, and ran to the Sulu Sea to cause trouble for the trouble, and the Huang family's navy did not fight.
Later, after interrogating several pirates, it was learned that Zheng Yiguan went to Malacca with the main force last year, and it is said that he had taken an island to operate, and the great cause of looting was impressive.
The opponent had no heavyweights, and the battle was easy, Huang Mingdao was also busy sneaking to Feifu Trade, transporting back more than 200,000 stone of rice, and when he came to the side of the Beibu Gulf of Dayue Country again, his practice was very different from the past.
Beibu Gulf is the traditional fishing ground of Daming and Da Yue, and the fishermen of Da Yue often attack each other and rob each other with Da Ming fishermen, and they are all competing for fishing grounds, and no one can back down.
In the past, the Huang family's fleet only looted merchant ships and did not disturb any fishermen at all, but this time they showed their fangs, and all the fishing boats they saw were seized, and the fishermen were all arrested, no matter which country they were, and all of them became producers of protein from the Huang family to the sea in the future.
After the Beibu Gulf, there is the Huangjia Inland Sea, and all the fishing boats and work boats are owned by the Huang family.
The Huang family's private soldiers raided the coastal areas under the banner of pirates, and basically did not cause any killings, mainly because the disparity in force was too great, and they launched a propaganda war, selecting many locals who had been benefited and educated, and put back to publicize the benefits of chivalrous pirates.
When attacking villages and cities, it was found that the soldiers and civilians who had fled in the desert and the private soldiers of the Huang family did not pursue them at all, but let them flee, rounded up the soldiers and civilians with a pleasant face, gave them food and clothing, and did not humiliate the women.
As a result, the great cause of plundering was very fruitful, and the property of many large families was confiscated, and many ordinary people became prisoners.
Including the immigrants and the captured Ming troops and ordinary people, Hainan Island suddenly increased by 200,000 or 300,000 people.
The landlords and old wealth who have been cleared of their property will also be treated differently, and those who are usually willing to give 1,000 taels of settlement silver to settle down on "Huaxia Island" will be resolutely suppressed by the rich and unkind local tyrants and inferior gentry, and it is also necessary to make an example of them when necessary, and labor reform is their destination.
For those ordinary people who were coerced, the Huang family's method of dealing with them was more scientific, and they just took this opportunity to break them up and include them in the armor protection system.
The reason why the Huang family's island implemented the new policy vigorously and resolutely was because there was no deep-rooted clan system at all.
Xiong Zhaoqi of Linkochi County left his post at the end of last year, his father Xiong Tingbi was killed, as the eldest son, of course he had to return to his hometown Ding worrying about the system, and when he left, he took away the Xiong family's henchmen, and of course the family Ding recruited in Hainan stayed.
These people have nowhere to go, so they all took the initiative to ask to follow the Huang family, which is no problem at all, Ge Chengjie gave them the treatment of regular soldiers and left them to serve.
The new magistrate of Lingao has not yet taken office, because Lingao is only a lower county, and there is no Zuo Erguan County.
After the operation, the master of the book is Lu Xiuke, the head of the military intelligence department sent by the Huang family.
This kind of nine-grade official does not enter the stream, Lingao is a deserted place, the county is his own people, and the Huang family intends to operate small things, so the inspection, the history, the head of the squad and the three classes of the six rooms are all soldiers or village warriors of the Huang family.
Wu Houlu is a talent who has tried and failed, and he has not even made a name for himself, and he belongs to a person who is depressed and unhappy.
He saw that these outsiders were inspired to build water conservancy and help the poor people in Linxing, and he also took Ge Chengjie as the leader, and was arranged to work a lot of work all day long, taking the monthly money of two or four coins and silver issued by the Huang family.
Ge Chengjie trained more than 8,000 villagers, which was his response to the call of the head of the family to be bolder and develop faster, and more than doubled the number of villagers in a year, including 3,000 indigenous villagers in Lingao.
He has more than 100 grassroots officers sent by the head of his family and a whole 1,000 mountain infantry, which are the Three Gorges slender men recruited last year, who have come across the sea with their families and their families, and their physical fitness is excellent, and they have been training cold weapons for more than half a year.
Ge Chengjie divided 5,000 troops, each with 10 strong laborers, and a 55,000-strong road construction army began to build the coastal official road from Lingao to Thanksgiving County.
Hainan Island is low and flat all around, towering in the middle, with Wuzhi Mountain and Parrot Ridge as the core of the uplift, and descends step by step to the periphery. Mountains, hills, terraces and plains form a circular layered landform with obvious cascade structure.
There was originally an official road along the coast, but the road was in disrepair and the road condition was too bad, and the Huang family built the road and bridge on the original foundation this time, to ensure that four four-wheeled carriages could run in parallel, and the flatness should ensure that the carriages could gallop.
Since the head of the family sent hundreds of skilled craftsmen, Ge Chengjie organized the hiring of 20,000 laborers to expand reproduction in cement factories, steel factories, brick and tile factories, ceramic kilns and other factories.
Organize 20,000 construction laborers to go to Thanksgiving County to repair and expand the original harbor, and build a grain depot that can store 500,000 stones of grain and mainly use safety cylindrical granaries.
There are also excellent combat effectiveness and equipment are not inferior, and the Ming army's 3,000 Xiangyong cooperated with the Huang army's army and the 5,000 Ming army infantry who forced Chengcheng to begin to seize the Weisho City and all the county towns and capital cities on Hainan Island one by one, of course, it was a clever seizure.
Because this year, Lu Xiuke, Pan Lianggui, and Lin Chaoping, the chief officers of the military intelligence department who were born as musketeers, worked in a down-to-earth manner, and in less than a year, intelligence teams were installed in 10 counties in the three prefectures of Hainan.
At the beginning of the operation, the intelligence officers and the soldiers with outstanding martial arts in the township Yongli infiltrated the undefended cities, and almost effortlessly captured the county lord or the lord of the mansion.
It's very simple to deal with the guards army, use the Cheng Ming army to surround them, and then shout to persuade them to surrender, and there are also some guards who think they can fight, but it's really rare.
The Huang family adopted the method of surrendering the army without a fight, and sent the Ming army to inform the officers and soldiers who tried to hold on to the city to leave a section of the city wall, and the Ming troops sent out were all locals who could speak well.
They assured that King Guo's army would not take advantage of the gap between the Ming army leaving the city wall to suddenly enter the city, and even did not go back themselves, took the initiative as hostages, and bitterly told the Ming army brothers that they were saving people from danger.
The strength was demonstrated by firepower, the field guns of the besieging troops opened fire from a distance, and the musketeers came to a hundred paces away to shoot their guns.
After showing off the sharp firepower, the officers defending the city looked at the battered city wall one by one, and if they did not heed the advice, they were still preparing to resist on that section of the city wall, and now they were afraid that they would be a corpse.
The garrison has degraded to the point that it is almost the same as the peasantry, and even then it is less than half of the number of soldiers, where is there any combat effectiveness, and who will dare to fight when the city can no longer provide protection?
In the end, all the military attaches were Junjie. Because they know the times, haha!
