Chapter 855: Destroy

After muttering repeatedly, Hao Fenglou stood up and looked at a few envoys.

He smiled slightly, and said: "What you said is not unreasonable, you see, I am a very reasonable person, about this, you must also be clear, I have come here thousands of miles away, I can't let the tiger return to the mountain, and send you back to the country, right?" ”

Several Japanese people looked at each other, in fact, they also knew that it was impossible to return to the Japanese country, and the most fundamental problem was that there was no boat. The boats of the Langshan people still have to be used by themselves, and the Japanese people's own boats have been reduced to ashes in the battle of Chongming, but when Hao Fenglou made it clear that he would never open the net, they still couldn't help but be lost.

Hao Fenglou immediately continued: "Besides, the grain and grass we have here are also insufficient, so what can we provide for you?" Everyone has to be reasonable, it is clear that you are my enemy, can you still teach me to provide for you? ”

An envoy hurriedly smiled and said: "Actually, what Chongming needs, only one meal a day is enough, and please consider one or two things for Your Highness." ”

The amount of food eaten by the Japanese is indeed very small, one meal a day, and the rations of an officer and soldier in Lang Son are only seven or eight times that of them, and now these Japanese people only want to live.

At this point, the Japanese people actually did not ask for much.

Hao Fenglou looked embarrassed, if he had one meal a day and only coarse grains, it wasn't that he couldn't feed them, but he naturally couldn't feed these people in vain.

Just kidding, now it is no longer the feudalism that advocates benevolence and righteousness, Lang Son is now implementing the most naked mercantilism for the purpose of profit, and now the hundreds of thousands of troops of the imperial court are shrinking into the Gyeonggi area, and the 20,000 people in Hao Fenglou will certainly not run to the egg to touch the stone. But the good news is that the imperial court has developed a fear of war. It's just that it blindly retreats to Gyeonggi, but the north and south coasts of Songjiang are now like an empty city.

Hao Fenglou attacked Chongming. In order to share the pressure of Jiangxi, the military horses of the imperial court could not shrink at this time, and the hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses in Jiangxi had fallen into a dilemma at this time, on the one hand, they were worried that their rear was copied by the Langshan army, and on the other hand, they had to face hundreds of thousands of Langshan troops in Guangdong.

At this time, the Jiangxi battalion was already completely in a dilemma, if it did not divide the troops to help. Then Zhejiang and Jiangning will not be protected, but once the troops are divided, Jiangxi will be in danger.

Under this double pressure, the entire imperial court finally fell into a certain atmosphere of imminent collapse, and the local officials also had a sense of precariousness.

The mountain rain is coming, according to Hao Fenglou's intelligence, there have been many voices within the imperial court, some people ask to move the capital to Beijing or Xi'an, and some people ask for military horses and horses from all over the country. Some people shook their heads, saying that Langshan is a cruel army, and it will not last long.

Some people also proposed to negotiate peace with the Hao family and divide the world.

None of these statements have much actionability. However, it revealed one message, that is, the hearts of the entire court have been dissipated, and those who sit on the broken ship have felt bad. I started to panic.

What Hao Fenglou wants is this effect, and what this expedition wants is to deter the imperial court. At the same time, Qiu Fu in Jiangxi was under great pressure. Cooperate with Lang Son's army to the north.

Since it can only be scary in Chongming, and being idle is idle anyway, then taking this opportunity to solve the problem of the Japanese people once and for all has become the best option for Hao Fenglou.

Hao Fenglou pursed his lips and smiled, and said: "It's not impossible to ask for rations, but if you want food, you must first exchange weapons for weapons, well, our plan is to call weapons for food for the time being, so let's exchange ten catties of weapons for one ration, you go back and discuss it." ”

After sending away a few Japanese envoys, Hao Fenglou immediately got up and began to write a letter of thousands of words, ordering someone to send it back to Langshan.

A plan against the Japanese has quietly begun.

…………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………

Chongming Island is like a powder keg here, the hungry and crazy Japanese people began to gnaw on the bark, began to eat the soil, and even some people looked at their own people, their eyes were a little red, and when the Japanese envoys came back and told Hao Fenglou the original words, the Japanese people had already begun to controversy.

Some people only want to fill their stomachs, and they can't care about anything at the moment.

However, there are some samurai who refuse to do anything, their swords are all passed down from their ancestors, and they still have a little sense of honor in their bones, and they are quite tragic and heroic in their swords.

At this time, the master of Chongming Island is to flatter Kondo Ryo, he is also one of the daimyo of the Japanese country, is a die-hard founder, stubborn temperament, as soon as he listens to the opinion of the Langshan people, immediately categorically refused, he believes that weapons are the foundation of the Japanese people, if you lose the weapon, then the Japanese people on the island will fall into a situation of being slaughtered by others.

It's just that at this time, he can't help it.

That night, the news had spread, and countless hungry and crazy Japanese people poured into Ryo Kondo's big tent together, and even chopped Ryo Kondo into meat sauce.

Taking away someone's money is like killing someone's parents, in other words, taking food from someone, it should be a common thing.

The next day, the Japanese elected a general, and began a plan to change food.

They spontaneously organized a group of men to collect weapons, and then used a dozen or so small sand boats anchored at Chongming Wharf to carry weapons out of the port, and there were already ships waiting outside Langshan, and as soon as they saw these sand boats coming, they immediately connected with them, and sent all the weapons to the ships, and in the evening, several grain ships came.

The rations on the grain ships were limited, barely enough to provide one meal a day, and at most three days.

But now the hungry and crazy Japanese people can't take care of so much, so let's fill the stomach now.

After two days, several more Japanese ships came out, and another boatload of weapons and gunpowder also existed, but the Japanese refused to let go of anything that they felt could be exchanged for food.

After more than two months, the weapons in the hands of the Japanese people were completely gone.

The weapons are gone, and the entire Chongming Island has almost become a barren land, and everything that can be gnawed is gnawed, even the leaves of the trees are bare.

Just when everyone was in a panic, Langshan's grain ship actually sent another batch of grain, this time the grain sent was not only food, but also gongs and other things, and there was also a hundred households in Langshan, this person told the people that in a few days, there will be a group of nobles to come, everyone should practice it, if you neglect the guests, there will be no food in the future.

…………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………

In fact, in Changxing Island, a large number of guests did come.

Just over a month ago, when Hao Fenglou's letter arrived in Langshan, the major newspapers began to publish a news, that is, the so-called Chongming Merchants Association's newsletter.

It is to the effect that Chongming has 100,000 free labor, since then began to attract investment, but all the merchants who intend to process and produce, can go to Chongming, all labor is almost free, and the production of raw materials near Chongming is extremely cheap, because of the beginning of the war, the workshop textile industry in Jiangsu and Zhejiang has been on the verge of collapse, there are raw silk on the market, although the imperial court banned the trade with Langshan, but there are many private ships to go to sea, with a large number of raw materials, willing to sell on the spot.

That is to say, labor is close to free here, and the raw materials for production are much lower than in Langsan, and most importantly, the goods can be sold to Korea and Wa countries, and new markets can be opened up.

In the past, the reason why Lang Son goods are not very popular here is not because the quality of Lang Son goods is not good, but in fact, the price of Lang Son goods is low, and the quality is also excellent, it is reasonable to say that it is impossible to let the Japanese people take advantage of this loophole, but the problem is bad in the distance, Lang Son goods from Haiphong, all the way to Korea, Ryukyu, Wa and other places, the transportation cost is several times more expensive than the goods themselves, so that when they arrive at the port, the price of the goods is often more than ten times.

It was precisely because of this that the Japanese people produced locally, opening up the market with cheap and low quality, so as to develop their own workshop industry.

If you want to truly and completely conquer the Japanese country, you must first completely destroy the national workshop industry of the Japanese country, make it a raw material production area, and a dumping ground for goods, so that even if their population is large, they will inevitably become a vassal of Lang Son in the end, and to completely destroy their workshop industry, they must have cheaper and better quality goods, so this investment promotion will also be born.

The Japanese people on Chongming Island can be used as slave labor, and do not have to pay salaries, which minimizes the cost of production, after the ban on trade nearby, many raw materials in Jiangsu and Zhejiang are cheap, which can reduce costs, and Chongming is not too far from the Japanese country, and there is no risk in the route in this area, which means that the transportation cost will also be minimized.

Using the Japanese people on Chongming Island to destroy the Japanese people on the Japanese Island, this is the best plan for Hao Fenglou at the moment, otherwise even if all the Japanese people on Chongming Island are killed, there are still tens of millions of Japanese people on the Japanese Island, and they are all hard-working, and now that the country has been founded, sooner or later, they will become competitors of Langshan.
