Looking at the unconscious Liu Zishan, Li Xiao was very sad.

No wonder people say that it is easy to win the world immediately, but it is difficult to rule the world immediately.

The world is not governed by a group of soldiers, they have experienced too much cruelty, too much life and death. That's why I cherish my life!

I always think that so many people have died, and I have to enjoy the second half of my life if I live.

Life is endless, and fighting is actually a good virtue. It's just a pity that virtue is called because of rarity.

"You are all people who have endured hardships, and I don't need to say what your life was like before you became a soldier. When you were oppressed by those officials, I don't need to say more.

Now you are also officials, think about what you are doing now, what is the difference between those officials who ate people and did not spit out bones.

You have all seen what happened to those people in the Donglin Party. Do you want another group of people to take guns and knock you off your official positions, and then their butts will sit on your official seats? Then, you will end up like those Donglin Party.

Do you want that fate? If you want, I'll satisfy you now. Say! Who of you would like to. Li Xiao shouted loudly, and the auditorium, which was full of more than 800 officers, was silent.

"Give the moldy grain to the people, the grain is only a few dollars, and you are all greedy for ink. A monthly salary of 20 silver coins is a year's income in an ordinary peasant's house.

Not satisfied!

Drink Moutai and eat seafood.

When you were eating seafood and vomiting and yelling to eat pork on Changxing Island, have you forgotten?

Now that they have all picked it up, they have all eaten the bastards who have brought disaster to the country and the people. I, Li Xiao, tell you that the Liao army fought the world to let the people of the Ming Dynasty live a good life, and for our children and grandchildren to stand at the top of the world's nations. It's not for you people to ride on top of ordinary people's heads and.

This is the latest eight regulations promulgated by the imperial court. Go back and take a good look and learn. If you don't understand, please ask the master, I, Li Xiao, put this in front of me, who the hell committed it. Don't blame me for not remembering the original friendship!

Ao Canghai! Read! Li Xiao stopped drinking, and Ao Ye immediately stood up.

With a few pieces of paper in his hand, he glanced at the generals and officers below.

"Eight regulations of the imperial court!

First, it is necessary to improve investigation and research, and to conduct research at the grassroots level, we must have an in-depth understanding of the real situation......! ”

Ao Canghai read it, and the people below didn't dare to listen to it. The auditorium reverberated with the roar of Ao Canghai's broken gong!

Early the next morning, the headlines of the major newspapers in the capital were all published without exception with the eight regulations. And indicate the report mailbox, any private person who finds clues about corruption can sign or not sign the report.

Li Xiao knows that many ordinary people actually don't hate corrupt officials. If you stop a few people on the street, ask if you are greedy as an official.

Nine times out of ten, they will say that Lao Tzu will definitely be greedy. If you meet a righteous and awe-inspiring person, it is either a rare person with high morals, or this guy has a problem with his brain.

Besides, such things as embezzlement and bribery are all done secretly into the village to shoot guns. There are not a few fools who accept bribes in court.

Since ancient times, this thing has been something that is under the table, and it can't be put on the table at all. Even Wei Zhongxian, who was lawless back then, covered up a little bit.

Since the common people can't see it, they can only mumble in private.

What ordinary people are dissatisfied with is actually privilege!

The horse-drawn carriages of the official family can be exercised on the high-speed official roads without charging any fees. Private vehicles have to pay a lot of tolls.

When officials go to inspect a place, they often have Jinyi Wei close the road in advance, and in some places they have to clear the site. Back then, Zhang Huangyan once went to the bargain supermarket and met a pork seller.

Zhang Huangyan asked the pork seller and said, "How is your business?" How many catties of pork are sold today? ”

The pork seller replied honestly: "It's usually good, but it hasn't opened today." ”

Zhang Huangyan was a little puzzled: "Why hasn't it opened?" ”

"You're here today, the clerk has sealed the supermarket, and people who buy things can't get in." The answer of selling pork almost choked Zhang Huangyan to death.

There was no way, Zhang Huangyan could only take out a silver coin: "If you delay selling meat, weigh me two catties, which can be regarded as opening a piece for you." ”

"Not for sale!"

"Not for sale?" Zhang Huangyan's eyes were about to fall, and the accompanying officials were very reluctant to strangle this bastard.

"It's not that I didn't sell you, but because you came, and those officials took the cleaver away. There's no way to cut meat! ”

As for those who pull banners, roll out the red carpet. There are flowers and plants along the streets, and those who curry favor with Shangguan are even more numerous.

In the canteen opened by the official family, ten copper brothers can eat big fish and meat. It is not open to the public, and the chicken, duck and fish meat that is thrown away every day have turned into swill and entered the pig's belly.

There have also been cases of swill in the canteen and getting pigs drunk to death.

The luxury carriages that can be seen on the streets are basically the cars of officials. There is even a slip of the tongue among the people, eating a cow in one meal and a building under the buttocks.

Not only is the car bull, but the number plate of the car is also bullish. Either it is a few consecutive numbers, or it is a special number, and the most bullish ones are numbers such as number one and two. These carriages are in the streets, and even if the horses pulling the carts pull the horse manure all over the ground, there is absolutely no official who dares to take care of it.

If a big official goes to a foreign country, it will be a big deal. Local enterprises, even if the production task is heavy, have to organize people to welcome them. If it is to go to the Japanese country, it will be even more remarkable.

The local Ming diaspora, as well as the Ming people, have to go to greet them. Some people even came up with such a bad idea as hiring people to get into trouble with the officials, and made jokes abroad, which made the North Koreans and Japanese people snicker.

The newspaper in each place has become the private diary of the local chief. What you do every day, who you meet, and what you talk about, it's all written clearly on it.

People in many places no longer read newspapers that only know how to boast. The biggest role of the local newspaper is to appear in the toilet as toilet paper.

All these things are actually expressions of privilege.

These eight regulations of Li Xiao are the privileges of special handling. It is very important that the common people do not see these privileged acts that can be seen.

Of course, corruption must not be forgotten.

But this kind of thing has to be done carefully. At the beginning, Li Xiao didn't plan to arrest all the officials and vent his anger to the people.

The reason is simple: officials are the basic tool for maintaining rule. Li Xiao is now suffering from the lack of officials in his hands, those officials are an important cornerstone of ruling the country, and the most important thing is that these officials are absolutely loyal to Li Xiao, and a fool will self-destruct the foundation.

But it's still important to pull out a few chickens and deter the restless monkeys.

For example, an official in charge of a coal mine was turned out, and the coal mine owners gave him a villa. The cupboards inside, under the bed, and in the wardrobes, large and small, were all filled with silver coins.

More than a dozen money counting masters of the money bank took eight hours to count clearly.

However, the director was a coward, and he didn't dare to spend any of the money, and when he was caught by the people of the Supervision Yuan, he was still eating fried noodles and garlic.

There is also a chief official in charge of water affairs in a small city, and hundreds of catties of gold were found at home.

Li Xiao did not protect any of the various appalling things, and all of them were published in detail in the newspapers. For a time, the number of newspaper publications continued to grow. This made the literati of the newspaper smile one by one, and the monthly bonus was a large amount.

These are all under Li Xiao's control. Looking at the chickens caught from all over the place, Li Xiao was also helpless. I didn't expect ten years of indulgence to hatch so many appalling incidents.

With a large number of officials unlucky, there is even no shortage of high-ranking officials and dignitaries in the unlucky list. The scope of the arrest began to narrow significantly.

"The main ones are those who still do not repent and commit crimes against the wind after the eight prohibitions are issued. Don't do it all! Li Xiao instructed Xiao Zhan in front of the desk.

"No!"

"It's just ......, the previous thing ......!"

"As long as it is not a great treachery and a great deal of public anger, a small punishment and a big admonition are sufficient. You can't arrest all the officials, the officials are gone, who will manage the place instead of the court? ”

"No! Xia Guan understood. Xiao Zhan can be regarded as brought out by Zhang Huangyan, and in the past few years, he has slowly matured in controlling the Supervision Yuan. Now, it is already a sharp knife in Li Xiao's hand.

In just two months, a large number of officials were killed, and the red top was really dyed with human blood.

While vigorously fighting corruption, Li Xiao received a gift from Jinzhou Institute of Electronics.

It's the kind of thing that sound can be transmitted through radio waves. Even if you are talking from thousands of miles away, as long as you have such a receiving device, you can receive your voice, and even your voice will not be changed.

"Isn't that just a tailwind?" Zhang Huangyan looked at this thing the size of a dressing mirror in amazement, and listened to Xu Erjue's explanation so surprised that his jaw was about to fall to the ground.

Li Xiao pouted, a thing that could be small enough to fit in a pocket, but now it seemed to be taller than himself.

Microphones and speakers have been around for a long time, and the British scientific genius named Tesla has been tinkering with the radio again. After a year of exploration, Jinzhou Institute of Electronics finally combined the two things together.

Xu Ermo saw that Li Xiao didn't speak with his hands behind his back, so he turned on the switch.

A male voice, speaking in English, didn't know what he was talking about. It's like a dream!

"This is Mr. Tesla from the United Kingdom, he is greeting you in Jinzhou." Xu Erjue's old face flushed.

Although Li Xiao knew that the goods were not greeting him at all, he still nodded. That's how it was, the world's first computer was developed, and five houses were filled.

Now in front of me, it's just a radio more than one person high, and it's already very surprising to myself.

"Good! This thing is good, as long as we have this thing in the future, what we say in the capital will be able to spread throughout China, and even to the Western Regions.

At the same time, the affairs of the Western Regions can also be transmitted back to us as soon as possible. This is extremely beneficial for the transmission of messages. "New things must first be affirmed.

"No! Thank you Dashuai, improve it again, and it will almost be ready for mass production. Xu Erjue and Xu Ermo immediately thanked him.

"There's room for miniaturization of this thing, but let's try to miniaturize. Again, what about the tank. "What Li Xiao is thinking about is not a large radio.

It's about being able to reliably fight in the field!

The war has entered the era of firearms in full swing, judging by the last European war. Linear tactics have been widely used, with both sides of the war digging trenches and pulling barbed wire.

Inside each trench, there are all kinds of machine guns. Behind the battle line, there were also artillery emplacements of artillery of various calibers.

In the face of this kind of trench warfare, the attacking side of the battle is a nightmare of blood and fire.

In the Battle of the Somme, the British suffered 60,000 casualties in 12 hours. At the level of first aid on the battlefield of the British army, the mortality rate of wounded soldiers was very high.

So, that's almost 60,000 deaths.

On average, eighty-three people are killed every minute. This is not combat, this is slaughter.

Li Xiao knew that in the face of such a linear position, the best way to break through was a tank. This thing, known as the king of land warfare, was the real king of the battlefield in this era.

The Ming Dynasty did pass the period of expansion, and the number of troops dropped to a worrying number. If you want such an army to be able to defend the interests of the Ming Dynasty, you can only let the army gradually enter mechanization.

With the current state of technology, this is a long and arduous process. But fortunately, Li Xiao knows what the goal is, and he has been moving towards this goal.

First of all, the two things of tanks and armored vehicles were first tinkered with. In this way, even in the distant Western Regions, the Ming Army can be invincible.

"Just about to say this, the tank has been very well improved. Tomorrow, the marshal will be able to come to the scene to observe in person, and as for the armored car, there are still some small flaws, and it is estimated that it will be at night. ”

"Not tomorrow, just today!" For the desire of the king of land warfare, Li Xiao can't wait for a moment.

"No!" No one dared to disobey Li Xiao's order, and the Xu brothers could only take Li Xiao and Zhang Huangyan to the tank test base.

"Tank ......!" Zhang Huangyan was in the carriage and asked Li Xiao a little blankly, not knowing what he was facing at all.

"It is understandable that Mr. Zhang did not know about the confidential project of this project. In fact, this is a kind of car that can run on the field without pulling a horse.

The outside of the car was covered with iron sheets, and not only did the firearms have no effect on this thing, but there was no problem with the direct fire of small-caliber guns. Another modification is called the armoured vehicle, which allows soldiers to travel to the battlefield without the threat of firearms. ”

"Oh! With this sharp weapon, then my Daming will definitely be invincible. ”
