Chapter 479: My name is Wang Xuan, an explorer of the 'New Path'

Wang Xuan's training expenses for more than 60,000 soldiers were replaced by the Ming Border Army, which could feed an army of 200,000 soldiers.

Cao Wenzhao, a native of Datong, Shanxi, brave and wise, known as the first good general in the late Ming Dynasty, Chongzhen for eight years, committed suicide in the battle of Hutou Town due to the defeat of the outnumbered soldiers.

Eat well, practice a lot, since ancient times, the army that can practice every three days is considered elite, put it to the current daimyo, seven days can not practice once, equipment or something and Wang Xuan's command can not be compared, looking at the complete set of iron armor, the centurion of the border army can use it is good, but here in Wang Xuan, everyone has it, not to mention steel knives and shields.

I still remember the first time I went down to the training ground, and after seeing this treatment, Cao Wenzhao cried at that time.

He was a big man, he cried very sadly at the time, and later I heard him say that if there was such treatment and equipment in the border army, where would so many people die in all the wars.

In this regard, Wang Xuan didn't see it that way, he said to Cao Wenzhao at the time, "It's useless to give so much money to the border army, it's useless, up and down a gram deduction, there are not a few left in the hand, a special war, Shangguan will take the lead in running, unless it is a city defense war, there is no exception to run, a general is incompetent and tired to the three armies, no matter how good it is to give them, it is useless, the entire military system of the Ming Dynasty has been rotten from top to bottom, and in the last years of the dynasty, it is like this, it has not to be changed, only after it is all smashed, can it not be broken or standing." ”

Now in Lianzhou Mansion, 60,000 troops are all concentrated here, with the support of a large number of materials delivered by Wang Xuan's big ship, and under the construction of those old, weak, sick and disabled who were eliminated before, the whole has become a large military camp, and the sound of daily training can be heard in the entire Lianzhou Mansion City.

Now, even ordinary people can see that there is a problem, and those so-called Annan invaders will basically be withdrawn.

It is impossible for Wang Xuan to let these people be idle, just a few days ago, Wang Xuan gave an order, and more than 10,000 people divided their troops into four routes, under the leadership of Cao Wenzhao, Sun Chengzong and other four people, they began to go deep into the north and south of Annan again.

Wang Xuan's task is to arrest people, how many are caught, and transport them to Guangdong and Xiaoliuqiu, respectively, the infrastructure construction and mine development in the two places need a large number of manpower, since there is no one to find for the time being, it is not bad to use slaves to work, at least there is no need to pay wages, as long as people are not tired to death, do more work, and save them from thinking about the west.

At this time, in the northern part of Annam, the remaining population was also eight or nine hundred thousand, which was enough for a long time.

As for the resistance forces, Wang Xuan didn't care at all, the resisters were unforgiving, and after only three or four bloody methods, they basically surrendered unconditionally.

On the other hand, Qi Hongliang sent an invitation one by one, and there were seven or eight households in each of the eleven prefectures in Guangzhou, although I don't know why the governor Qi Hongliang invited him to meet in the city, but after all, this is the first time that the governor has sent an invitation after taking office for more than a year, and he still has to give face.

In particular, Wang Xuan ordered to sweep so many big families before, even if he was at the murderous butcher's knife, no one dared not go.

It's just that before going, many people have already made wills, and if there is anything excessive, these guys are willing to sacrifice for the sake of the family.

Half a month later, at the appointed date, everyone arrived, and the reason why it was so neat was not because of how much face Qi Hong had, but because Wang Xuan's knife was too sharp.

In the hall, it seemed a little noisy, and the heads of eighty or ninety families gathered together, especially those who had only heard of their names before and had not seen their faces, so they naturally wanted to have a good exchange with each other by taking this opportunity.

It's just that the things that are communicated seem a little heavy.

After everyone arrived, Qi Hongliang was late, not because he was putting up a fight, but because he gave everyone a familiar time.

Accompanied, "The Governor has arrived." Qi Hongliang, who has been in control of Guangdong for more than a year, has become more powerful, walked out together accompanied by the four guards beside him.

"I've seen the governor, and here is the head of the Sun family in Shaozhou Mansion."

"I've seen the governor, and below is the head of the Huang family in Chaozhou Mansion."

For a while, in the hall, there were greetings one after another.

Qi Hongliang smiled and talked and laughed with the people around him, looking very cordial, and the response of the various prefecture families was also very enthusiastic.

After following Wang Xuan for so long, Qi Hongliang also learned Wang Xuan's style, which is called good at the top, and very good at the bottom, everyone is simply too neat and tidy, those boring politeness and red tape will make Wang Xuan disgusted, and gradually everyone has changed this problem.

After a few simple greetings, Qi Hongliang invited today's protagonist Wang Xuan, in the face of such a fierce dragon crossing the river that suddenly set off a bloody rain in Guangdong, everyone looked at the past with burning eyes, for Wang Xuan, everyone only listened to his name, and did not see his person, so they were naturally curious.

It's just that the moment Wang Xuan walked into the hall, the bloody and murderous aura immediately made the hall become depressed, and everyone subconsciously held their breath, but they still felt a smell of blood in their noses.

Wang Xuan stood in front of everyone, his voice resounding in everyone's ears, "There may be many people here who don't know me, let me introduce myself, my name is Wang Xuan, an explorer of a 'new road'." ”

"Maybe you don't understand what I mean by this 'new path', so I'll explain it here." Wang Xuan's voice paused, and his eyes swept over everyone, "I think that the world is very big, and the Ming Dynasty is too small, and the reason why it is difficult for dynasties to cross the hurdle of three hundred years is because there is too little land, and the ability to resist natural and man-made disasters is not enough. ”

"The first step, I led the Fujian family to develop Xiaoliuqiu Island, at present, has been reclaimed out of more than two million acres of land, because it is the first time, the land is free, this development of Xiaoliuqiu, there has been a land of more than 100,000 acres of big family fifteen, in the future, is expected to reach forty!"

After Wang Xuan said this, there was immediately a gasping sound at the scene, "hiss", "hiss", "hiss", as if he wanted to drain all the air.

A big family of more than 100,000 acres, what is this concept, in any province, even if it is Huguang, if there are 100,000 acres of land, it can be regarded as a top wealthy family, after all, this is land, which can be passed on forever, and it is the foundation for a family to settle down.

Before the more than 80 family heads were shocked, Wang Xuan added a few more words, "Oh, I forgot to explain that due to geographical location and climate reasons, these lands are all excellent paddy fields that can be harvested three times a year." ”

"Wow!" , may be full of gas, there was an exclamation at the scene, three crops a year, then these 100,000 acres can at least top the 150,000 acres of land in Guangdong, it is exciting to think about.

"Mr. Wuzhou, is this true?" Some people are already so excited that they stand up, at this moment, what kind of murderous demon king, what kind of public enemy of the family, go to the special, in everyone's hearts, there is only land, 100,000 acres of land!

No one believed that Wang Xuan would say such things for no reason, which means that everyone also has a chance!

"I, Wang, Yiyan Jiuding Xuan, never deceive people, hearing is false, seeing is believing, the day after tomorrow, there will be a ship from Xiaoliuqiu to transport grain, supply 60,000 troops to return, Governor Qi will sit on the ship, take everyone to Xiaoliuqiu to investigate, let everyone see it with their own eyes, and those who are willing to go can sign up."

"I'll go!" "I'll go!" "I'll go!" "I'll go!" "I'll go!"

For a while, the sound of my going resounded throughout the audience, and as the atmosphere of the scene gradually became warmer, the head of the family, who was still a little hesitant before, couldn't help but shout, there is nothing to be afraid of, all the famous families in Guangdong are here, and I really don't believe that Wang Xuan will do anything to everyone.

Moreover, only the head of the family went to the house, even if he died, it would not have such a big impact on the family, and it would not be to the point of breaking his muscles and bones, but if what Wang Xuan said was true, he could occupy Xiaoliuqiu and develop it successfully, and the communication between the two places was convenient enough, then ...... The interests involved in this are enough to drive a family crazy.

In the face of such great interests, death is not so terrible.

Seeing everyone's enthusiasm, Wang Xuan pressed his hands, and after the scene quieted down, he continued: "After the ship returns from Xiaoliuqiu, it will set off for Annan again, I believe that everyone is no stranger to Annan, and now you can directly tell you that the northern part of Annan has been completely occupied, according to calculations, there are no less than 20 million mu of developable land, and after the construction of water conservancy facilities, they are all paddy fields that are three crops a year." ”

"This so-called Annan invasion was single-handedly operated, and the purpose was to control Guangdong Province and prevent unrelated people from disturbing everyone's wealth."

"What?"

"Sure enough!"

Some people don't know, but many people have already guessed some in their hearts, but they just can't believe it.

"Mr. Wuzhou, what is the current situation in Annan, you know, in all dynasties, no one has really conquered that land, including my Daming, who wasted decades of time in Annan, and in the end the gains outweighed the losses, what can Mr. ......do?"

The latter words are not said, everyone also understands what it means, if you are not sure, you have to think about it, after all, Annam is not another place, as a Cantonese person, I know very well how difficult it is for people in that land to conquer.

"In fact, it is easy to completely conquer and occupy Annam, it's just that too many emperors cherish their reputation and are unwilling to leave a name of brutality."

After saying one sentence, everyone at the scene was confused, is it easy? Are you kidding? Moreover, expanding the territory is what the emperor cares about the most, how can it ruin his reputation?

"Please also ask Mr. Wuzhou to forgive me for being stupid, I really don't understand what Mr. means, and please ask Mr. for advice." One stood up and saluted respectfully.

"It's easy." Wang Xuan's eyes swept across the audience with a smile, "You just need to kill all the Annan people!" ”

"......" The audience was silent, no one thought of such an answer, simple, direct, effective!

It's just that just killing all of them carries a boundless bloody aura, and everyone has a sense of enlightenment in their hearts, no wonder, no wonder it feels like Wang Xuan has a murderous aura, everyone doesn't know how many people Annan has, but it's not less than Guangdong!

A few simple words represent millions of lives, which is really unacceptable to everyone.

It is no wonder that the conquest of Annam was easy, but the emperor cherished his reputation and did not dare to do it, and if he did the slaughter of millions of people, he would surely leave a reputation for cruelty after death.

However, everyone has to admit that this method is so effective, and from now on, there will never be a rebellion in Annan again.

And as the beneficiary, they don't care what name Wang Xuan will leave after his death, it has a dime to do with them, what they care about is the tens of millions of acres of land, it makes people excited to think about it, how many families are there in Guangdong, and when they divide it, every family can occupy more than one million acres, which is unimaginable......
