The Soul of the Han Dynasty in the Late Ming Dynasty

Chapter 196

Huang Han smiled and continued: "The staff of 'Sifang Express' even said harsh words, 'Sifang Express' is a business of the 'Red Banner Army', and it was born to solve the salary of the soldiers of the 'Red Banner Army'.

Whichever robber dares to rob the goods of 'Sifang Express', the 'Red Banner Army' will definitely kill them to the end. Kill all the road bandits, and kill them all, young and old.

It is estimated that such a situation will occur in a few days. If the goods are handed over to 'Sifang Express', they will reach the ground without exception, and they will be transported by other carriages and horses, or they will be escorted by themselves. It is inevitable that they will be robbed and lost on the road. Lost money and even lost their lives. "

The fool heard it in his ears and said disapprovingly: "Brother Han, how can there be so many bandits and horse bandits? Isn't this against the sky?
If so, does anyone know where they are active, I just took those recruits to fight, so that all cavalry who have never been on the battlefield will see blood. "

Huang Sifang had already fully understood what Huang Han said, and said with a smile: "My lord has great insight, the land is indeed not peaceful, only force can overwhelm everything, the 'Red Banner Army' is so famous that all Xiaoxiao dare not face it.

Therefore, only the "Sifang Express" family can transport quickly, safely and efficiently, and it will not be a problem to make a lot of money in the future, hahaha..."

Yang Hanwei said with a smile: "Da Lang, I think you should not think about leading recruits to fight bandits, but cover your face and take off your banner to play a few cameos as horse bandits. Otherwise, the business of Huang Sifang brothers will not be popular in a short time. stand up?"

The fool finally understood, he shook his head and said, "No, I'm an upright man, I won't do such dirty things."

Xiao Song said seriously: "Brother Da Lang is right, the knights of the 'Red Banner Army' starved to death and did not plunder the common people, how could they do such a nasty thing?"

Huang Han nodded in affirmation of Hanzi and Song Pengfei's statement. He understood the direction of history. The law and order in Gyeonggi began to collapse in the year when slaves were established and invaded the bandits. Since then, there have been so many bandits.

There is no need to let the "Red Banner Army" self-destruct their image and play horse bandits, even if it is not for the sake of money and death.

Huang Han said solemnly: "Don't do good because it is small, and don't do evil because it is small! We must jointly maintain the image of the 'Red Banner Army'. We must not neglect righteousness for profit, and we must not cause innocent people to die in vain just because we want to achieve our goals." .

The knights of the 'Red Banner Army' will dispatch from time to time to eliminate bandits and bandits, but they must choose the key points. Those who fear the 'Red Banner Army' and are not extremely vicious can take it easy, and those who dare to challenge the 'Red Banner Army' can really kill them. . "

Huang Sifang understood Huang Han's meaning, and said: "I understand the lowly position, we should treat water and fish differently, as long as the horse bandits are not extremely cruel and easy to kill, they can be let go temporarily, and everything is considered in the interest of the 'Red Banner Army'."

Huang Han said: "I guess I won't have to endure those thieves for long, because once 'Sifang Express' gets word of mouth, it will monopolize most of the business. How can the robbers survive without others to rob?"

Huang Sifang said: "Understood, 'Sifang Express' is developing while contacting the 'Red Banner Army' to suppress bandits. When it is thriving, it should be a time of peace."

"If that's the case, in the future we will ensure that the sphere of influence of the 'Red Banner Army' is clear and clean, and the common people live and work in peace and contentment."

Seeing that the Patriarch has lofty aspirations, the few confidants are extremely excited. They believe that there will be such a day, and it should not be too far away.

Since [-] shi of winter wheat purchased from Jiangnan has already arrived in Hong Kong, the later [-] shi will be delivered in a few days, and no one died of starvation in Yongping Prefecture.

It was a great effort for Xu Guangqi to arrive at Hong Kong on time with these grains traveling thousands of miles away. He specially wrote to Sun Yuanhua, a disciple of Denglai, who had been promoted to Governor of Youqian Capital Censor Denglai, urging him to do his best to let these life-saving grains safely pass through the Denglai defense area.

The order at sea is chaotic, and entering Liaodong Bay is even more uneasy, because maybe Dongjiang Town, which is short of food, finds that the merchant ships transporting food without naval escort will immediately grab them.

Sun Yuanhua did not dare to be careless when he received the letter from his master, and urgently mobilized several warships of the Denglai Navy to send the grain ships shipped from Jiangnan to Funing Port before returning.

Now that there is enough food, the hearts of the people are stable. There are 10,000+ ordinary people who work in various workshops and factories and get a relatively stable monthly salary to supplement their families. During the busy farming season, all the labor that is not a master craftsman will be organized by young apprentices to go to the fields to grab farming time.

Fortunately, Huang Han took precautions. Because Yongping Mansion did a good job in relief work, its reputation spread to other places without knowing it. Many disaster victims really came to help the old and the young to find the "Red Banner Army" to find a way to survive.

With food in stock and the expectation of a bumper harvest of potatoes and sweet potatoes, facing the tens of thousands of refugees waiting to be fed, Huang Han did not feel that they were a burden, but instead considered them a powerful force.

The students of the "Red Banner Army" have already had the experience of resettling more than [-] refugees, and they are able to deal with new refugees with ease. It is the youth's pursuit to ensure that the people who come to the "Red Banner Army"'s sphere of influence will not starve to death.

Hearing that there is a way to survive in Yongping Prefecture, the people who did not hesitate to trek over mountains and rivers finally saw hope. They ate hot cooking cakes and drank gruel. They only recovered their strength after resting for two or three days. The wages immediately went to work.

Strong laborers without any skills can work as porters, and women and children can break bricks. Anyway, there are many job opportunities around Kaiping, and there is always a job suitable for them.

Not long after the Mid-Autumn Festival, Huang Yizhou and Huang Han received the old superior Han Zhikuan who came to visit in Kaiping Town. He specially brought the two maidservants Jinfeng and Yuchai that Huang Weizheng had given to Huang Han.

Huang Han had long forgotten about this incident. Today, when he saw the two happy maidservants and saw their pretty faces clearly, he vaguely remembered how sweet they were when they waited for him to take a bath that day, and he finally knew They mentioned their names, but the names are a bit vulgar.

Han Zhikuan has already become a general of the All the way and will rush to Shanxi to take up his post in a few days. Huang Weizheng, the deputy general of Ji Town, will also leave Funing with his troops and go to Santun camp to change defense. The mode of the grandfather's management.

He deliberately came to visit his father and himself before leaving Funing. Of course, Huang Han couldn't let Han Zhikuan go back empty-handed. He gritted his teeth and gave Han Zhikuan ten sets of all-steel breastplates and sixty bird guns.He was entrusted to bring Huang Weizheng a set of gold-plated breastplate as a high-end gift to express his heart.

Huang Han told Han Zhikuan that he must spare no effort to train the servants and improve their combat effectiveness and defense ability, because the days to come will not be peaceful, and it will not be long before the bandits spread to Shanxi.
