Ming Dynasty: My Brother-in-law is Zhu Youxiao

Chapter 69: Helping the field, killing the students crying and shouting to go home!

It was the official school of Xichang who fired the shells.

Unlike the East Factory, the West Factory was directly supervised by Zhang Gui, so Zhang Gui ordered a large number of light artillery and various explosive firearms for the West Factory from the Ordnance Department from the very beginning, and asked the West Factory to use military combat methods to handle the case. That is to push the cannon to handle the case at any time.

Even the official schools recruited into Xichang are all regular military officers with actual combat experience such as the frontier army and the Beijing camp.

After all, Zhang Gui's goal is to ask Xichang to collect protection fees all over the world with arms. Without strong arms, it is impossible to guarantee the smooth collection of protection fees.

As for the funds required for the procurement of military supplies, it is not a problem for the West Factory at present.

Because Xichang had just confiscated Shanxi merchants not long ago and received millions of taels of money, it is still a time when the money is rich and powerful.

What's more, Xichang is still investing in its own right now. In order to lay out information lines, it has opened shops, restaurants, and inns to generate income.

Therefore, the West Factory has no financial pressure yet, and it is even so rich that it directly invests in the Ordnance Department. Direct investment in the establishment of a school for the children of Xichang in Xishan, specially training some orphans and children bought from the poor as a team of talents for Xichang to join in the management of various global affairs in the future.

These are naturally Zhang Gui's own ideas. He knows that he is powerless to change the bureaucratic scholar-bureaucrats who are deeply influenced by Cheng Zhu's Confucianism, so he simply finds another way, spending money to train orphans and poor children bought. Teach, he has the final say on everything, and no one can comment on it.

As for these children, what should they do when they grow up?

Undoubtedly, when these children grow up, they can only work under the name of Xichang and do things for Xichang.

Turn the words back.

As soon as Huang Degong arrived in Suzhou, after seeing the Dongchang people being stopped by a large number of armed soldiers in Suzhou for arresting Li Sancai, he directly ordered the Xichang official school on his side to bombard these Suzhou scholars and shouted: "Dongchang The brothers from the factory are in trouble! But they, like us, came with a purpose, so the brothers from the west factory, we people from the west factory have to help the brothers from the east factory! Follow me to kill the enemy !"

After Huang Degong finished speaking, he jumped from the boat to the shore.

"What Qianhu said is that even if he doesn't have a son, someone will kill him for paper money after he dies. What are you afraid of!"

The rest of the Xichang government school also jumped up vigorously, and quickly formed a square formation, with the shield holding the shield and drawing the sword, the firecracker holding the bullet that bit the paper shell, and the spearman holding the spear flat, and aimed at these Suzhou scholars. rushed over.

Zhang Gui promised that the orphans adopted by Xichang would be distributed to the descendants of those who died in the battle of Xichang without heirs in the future, and paper money would be burned for them during the festivals, which is very meaningful for the government schools of this era.

People in this era believe in ghosts and gods. The real fear of death is that no one will sacrifice to them or burn paper money for them.

That's why there is a saying that there are three kinds of unfilial piety, and the greatest is to have no descendants.

Zhang Gui's promise made these officials and schools in Xichang relieve a lot of worries in the case of generous incentives, so they are all very brave and fearless.

After these Suzhou scholars were bombarded with light artillery by Xichang, they were already discouraged.

After all, these Suzhou scholars, apart from those who have the honor of being a student, are all village brave green skins hired by the gentry. It is okay to bully tenants, imperial servants, and even Dongchang, which are not part of the regular army, but they are about to encounter a regular situation. Don't know how to deal with it at all.

The health workers who organized the township brave Qingpi to fight against the factory guards were the first to run.

Some students even started panting after running for a few steps due to lack of exercise all year round, so they had to shout: "Sliding pole! Sliding pole! Quickly lift the sliding pole!"

boom!

boom!

boom!

And when the professional Xichang firearmsmen started shooting at these Suzhou scholars, after being shot down a large area, these Suzhou scholars became even more frightened, and some directly knelt down and begged for mercy.

"Brothers in Dongchang, get out of the way! Let me show you how to use cannons and phalanxes to handle the case! Advance in a team! Blockers, shoot and kill!"

Huang Degong was still shouting in his loud voice, and rushed to the front himself, holding the heavy bow he preferred to use, and deliberately selected students wearing square scarves and colorful clothes to shoot arrows. The student who had just sat on the pole was shot down by him, screamed, and cried loudly: "I want to go home! I want to go home! This is terrible! It's terrible! Woohoo!"

Xu Xianchun and others from Dongchang Banner School were confused at first.

They didn't expect that they could still handle the case like this?

"Damn, these Xichang people are not handling cases, they are going to fight the enemy! Cannons and firecrackers have come in handy, and they dare to charge when they see the opponent has firearms, and they even kill the timid people on their side to maintain military discipline!"

Seeing this scene, Xu Xianchun sighed and was afraid of being robbed of his achievements by Xichang, so he didn't want to be outdone, so he shouted: "Brothers in Dongchang! He is not afraid of death in Xichang, and we are not cowards in Dongchang! Kill! Kill these rioters and capture the criminal Li Sancai alive!"

"yes!"

As a result, these Dongchang Banner schools also rushed up.

Li Sancai also saw this scene on the boat here, saw the people from Xichang rushing ashore from the boat with the lanterns of Xichang, and killed the scholars and people in Suzhou retreating every day, so he hurriedly shouted: "Start the boat, hurry up!" sail!"

As he spoke, Li Sancai couldn't help cursing angrily: "This uncle Zhang Guo actually asked his Xichang to join in the fun. The key point is that his Xichang posture looks like a fierce general who is coming up to fight! Handling the case in the way of the enemy is not handling the case, it is rebellion! Damn! Very hateful!"

Li Sancai cursed loudly in a loss of composure, and after his own boat drove away, he said, "Light it up!"

In order to avoid being arrested by the imperial court, Li Sancai not only asked the Donglin scholars who admired him to organize a group of Suzhou scholars to prevent the imperial court from arresting him, but also arranged many small boats full of kerosene near the building where he lived. Follow, in order to create confusion when the court officials are likely to arrest him, so as to facilitate his escape.

"Master! This is the bustling area of ​​Gusu, surrounded by civilian boats, and a fire may endanger the people on the river."

An old servant said impatiently.

"I can't control so much now, what's the point of killing a few people! As long as they can successfully go to sea, the princes and princes in the future will count this on these court eagle dogs!"

Li Sancai shouted, "Light it up!"

"yes!"

The old servant agreed and ordered someone to light the fire.

Not long after, when people from Xichang Huang Degong and Dongchang rushed over, a fire broke out around the building where Li Sancai was staying, burning the whole river brightly. Opening shops for the streets, and even putting their homes on boats directly, so many people's homes were on fire.

Huang Degong of the West Factory and the people of the East Factory couldn't help but stop, watching Li Sancai's boat sail away.

"Hi!"

Xu Xianchun couldn't help stamping his feet, and said angrily, "Let's go!"

Xu Xianchun then left here with his Dongchang Banner School.

Seeing this, Zhou Neng, the family member who was promoted by Zhang Gui to the West Factory to serve as an officer of the Hundred Households, couldn't help asking Huang Degong: "Qianhu, what should we do in the West Factory?"

"The fire has to be brought under control! If you don't control it, you won't be able to get through! Take a team to the shore and follow the method you trained in our West Factory to remove the isolation belt and help the people put out the fire! The other team, follow me into the water Organize the people to separate the unburned ship!"

Huang Degong ordered.

"yes!"

Therefore, under the timely rescue of Xichang, although most people in this era used wood and bamboo as walls, only three or five families and six or seven civilian boats were burned in the end.

After successfully escaping here, Li Sancai pushed open the window on the upstairs boat again, looked at the river, and smiled triumphantly: "From now on, I will be a seaman!"

As Li Sancai spoke, he saw that the government schools in Xichang were already busy with the people affected by the fire, so he couldn't help but snorted coldly: "What a despicable Uncle Guo, let him use such vicious methods in Xichang. Let the people of Suzhou begin to gradually think that I, Li San, are the ones who don’t care about the lives of the people, are they the factory guards who care about the lives of the people?!”

"hateful!"

Li Sancai couldn't help but curse again.

"How did the ship go north?"

Li Sancai was cursing, when he realized that his boat was heading north, he couldn't help shouting: "What's going on?! Come on!"

Not long after, the old servant beside him was escorted by several servants holding knives.

One of the servants named Li Gui cupped his hands and said, "My lord! Please forgive me for your rudeness! You'd better catch him without a fight."

Li Sancai was shocked: "What do you mean?!"

"Master, calm down! The main reason is that the people in Xichang gave too much!"

Li Gui replied.
