Chapter 249 The Happiness of Local Tyrants in Lantian County

The actions of the [-]th Brigade did not hide from Zhang Xianzhong's eyes. Zhang Xianzhong found that the [-]th Brigade was in a defensive posture, so he also stopped in Xingping and did not move forward.

"Father, there is Lantian County in front of us, why don't we stop in Xingping, and ask the father to send a soldier to the boy, and the boy will go to Lantian, and chop off Li Chaosheng's head to present to the father's case. "

Zhang Xianzhong was looking at a map at this time, but it was not from Lantian, but the map between Hanzhong and Sichuan. Hearing Sun Kewang's words, he said with a smile: "Don't worry, my boy, now is not the time for a decisive battle with Li Chaosheng. We can just wait here for a while, this time Xingping, looting all the way, is enough for our army."

"Ah, Yifu, but our goal this time is Lantian!"

After hearing this, Zhang Xianzhong said: "Lantian is a cover, and my goal was not it from the beginning."

"Where is that?"

Sun Kewang looked at Zhang Xianzhong and asked, at this time Zhang Xianzhong looked at Li Dingguo who was beside him and said, "Do you know where the foster father's goal is?"

Li Dingguo put down the trotters in his hand at this moment and said, "Sichuan."

"Oh, how do you know it's Sichuan?"

Zhang Xianzhong looked at Li Dingguo curiously, and Li Dingguo smiled and said, "My father-in-law looked at the map of Central Shu along the way, and he divided up the troops all the way south. Below Shaanxi is Hanzhong, and after Hanzhong is Sichuan, so I conclude that father-in-law It's for Sichuan."

Hearing this, Zhang Xianzhong looked at Li Dingguo and burst out laughing: "Okay, you brat is really smart, what kind of reward do you want from your adoptive father?"

After hearing this, Li Dingguo said: "I also want to go into battle like my elder brother."

Hearing this, Zhang Xianzhong shook his head and said: "Forget it, you are too young, a little older, a little older, I will allow you to go into battle."

Zhang Xianzhong stroked Li Dingguo's head caressingly. He liked this child very much, especially his intelligent head. At this moment, Sun Kewang glanced at Li Dingguo, with a flash of displeasure in his eyes.

"Brother, are you eating a pig's trotter?"

Li Dingguo made a show, looked at Sun Kewang who was staring at him, and sent the pig's trotters to Sun Kewang. Sun Kewang looked at the pig's trotters and said with a smile: "Eat it, brother, don't eat it."

After finishing speaking, he backed out, and Sun Kewang's face was gloomy and terrifying outside, and let this bastard win the favor of his adoptive father again, obviously I am the eldest son.

Thinking that Sun Kewang was furious, he ran to the woods to vent his anger, and Zhang Xianzhong saw all of this, but he didn't comfort the two of them, the first Zhang Xianzhong felt that there was nothing wrong with the little dirty things between brothers, who wouldn't fight.

Secondly, Zhang Xianzhong believes that brothers and monarchs need to be controlled by means. Brothers are too friendly and friendly, which is not conducive to his commander. In the future, his adopted sons will become the leader of the army. If they are too harmonious and brotherly affectionate, then Zhang Xianzhong will be sad up.

Part of his love for Li Dingguo is because he really loves this ten-year-old boy who showed a talent for war, and part of it is for Sun Kewang to cultivate the seeds of their disharmony.

The one who is the leader is not a deep-minded person, there are countless connections in it.

Zhang Xianzhong looked at the map and read: "The White Pole Army, Qin Liangyu..."

Li Chaosheng's strategy is to connive at the bandits and cholera Dali County, first destroy Dali County, and then rebuild it. Anyway, there is nothing worth preserving in Dali County. If it is Xi'an, or Nanjing, BJ, Li Chaosheng may have to worry about famous places Don't destroy the historic sites, these are the wealth left to future generations.

But in Dali County, apart from the big tile-roofed house of the landlord's house, there is nothing else that needs attention.

The border of Lantian has recently begun to frantically recruit refugees who escaped from Dali County. Li Chaosheng's attitude towards these people is that the more the better, the more they come, the more they come. These people, and those who fled were not only those from Dali County, but also refugees from Baishui County, and even refugees from farther away all ran to Lantian.

In just three days, Lantian County accepted more than [-] refugees, and in these three days, Luo Rucai, like a black devil, brought disaster to the landlords in Dali County.

According to intelligence, Luo Rucai's troops invaded Nianqiao Town from Gaoyang Town. Zhao Jinbao, the landowner of Nianqiao Town, saw the tragedy in Gaoyang Town, so he led his slaves to fight Luo Rucai, and the battle collapsed immediately.

Zhao Jinbao was captured alive, and his wife and daughter became playthings for the thieves. Zhao Jinbao was dropped on the waterwheel, rolled up and down with the waterwheel, drowned for half a day, and choked to death.

The army entered Nianqiao Town to burn, kill and loot, and gained a lot of money.

The Heisha God's Department, starting from Zhoujiazhai, went straight to Guanchi Town. The big landlord in Guanchi Town, Tonight Rong, fled overnight and transferred his property. catch up.

Heisha angrily ran away, and refused to be a fat sheep obediently, so he asked his thieves to cut open Wanrong Rong's fat belly with a knife, stuff cotton wool into it, and set it on fire.

Tonight, Rong burned alive for a day and a night, and then died in a miserable howl. This method is called lighting the sky lanterns. Many people in Guanchi Town are scared to go that way. It can be described as miserable. Afterwards, there are often haunted ghosts, and I don't know if it is true or not.

Luo Rucai, Heisha God can be regarded as a disaster for the landlords in Dali County, and finally a few landlords near Lantian County couldn't resist the blow in their hearts, and began to ask for help from Lantian County.

He said that as long as Lantian sent troops to rescue them, they were willing to offer 1000 taels of silver.

"You want to buy your life for 1000 taels? You really are a group of masters who risk their lives and money, so reject them."

1000 taels, these are not even one-twentieth, or even one-thirtieth of the wealth of these old landlords.

Do not agree.

Hearing the refusal of the militia, Lao Cai, the landlord, looked at Luo Rucai and others who were getting closer, and the conditions were raised again. They were willing to pay 5000 taels, and they would not prevent the Lantian County boundary marker from entering Dali County.

"5000 taels, hehe, take one-tenth of their family wealth in exchange for their lives, there is no door, and the boundary marker of Lantian County enters Dali County with their consent. I can enter by myself, but I don't agree."

The militia once again rejected these rich landlords, and the rich landlords continued to increase their prices, 6000 taels, 7000 taels, and 8000 taels, just like buying vegetables in a vegetable market.

The money seems to be tied to their ribs, and every penny used is pulled down on their ribs with iron pliers.

Li Chaosheng was enraged by their actions, and directly ordered: "Not a single penny will be collected, and no amount of money will be saved."

This is Li Chaosheng's attitude. Treating Lao Tzu as if it were Sunday, adding money all the time, this is simply nonsense.

When Lantian County told them that they would not send troops for any amount of money, these landlords broke down and began to beg for mercy, willing to give [-]% of their family property first, but the militiamen were not moved at all.

The county lord said he would not accept it, and he did not accept it, so these angry landlords began to curse Li Chaosheng, and cursed Li Chaosheng's eight times ancestors.

He gritted his teeth in anger at the soldiers on the front line, but Li Chaosheng was very indifferent, you can scold as you like, and wait for the thieves to light your sky lanterns after scolding.

So the landlords broke down and begged, but Li Chaosheng had already decided to make an example of them, so he was not going to give them any chance, so the landlords begged every day, to no avail.

After the landlords in Lantian County knew about this incident, although they were somewhat saddened by the death of the rabbit, they were more scolding the landlords in Dali County for looking for death. They didn't do things so badly at the beginning, so why are they so miserable now.

Looking at myself now, although I have no land, I can earn more from business, how much money can I earn from that land, a bunch of idiots donkey balls.

At the same time, the wealthy households in Lantian County have a sense of identity with Lantian. You see, only in Lantian County is the safest place. The business environment is superior, and officials never ask for cards. Except for the high business tax, nothing wrong.

But if you calculate carefully, you don’t give officials the money they need to get cards, pay the money to commercial taxes, and even earn more than places that don’t pay commercial taxes. What does this mean?

It's not that there is no commercial tax outside, but the commercial tax outside is called official bribery, and this bribe is higher than the tax in Lantian County. The tax in Lantian is only [-]%, and the officials outside are less than [-]%.

Does Daming have no money?

Daming has money, but all the money has been given to these officials, so there is no great virtue.

Looking at the landlords outside, their lives are not guaranteed. In comparison, they are really happy. The more I think about these landlords, the more satisfied they are. In the end, I feel that I must protect my own Lantian County. Only Lantian County is strong and prosperous. Therefore, the charity donation department set up in Lantian County has seen almost no people in the past. In the past few days, there have been a group of landlords, gentry, and rich people donating money.

Although the money was not a lot, 80 taels a hundred, but the accumulation made a lot, unknowingly, it accumulated 10 taels, which was enough for Li Chaosheng's four major brigades to dispatch a battle, or even fight a war.

Li Chaosheng was shocked, where did this inexplicable love for the county come from?
But this is a good thing after all, Li Chaosheng also specially posted a list at the charity donation place, commending the big donors this time, and announced that the top three can get the title of Lantian County Love Ambassador.

In the end, I didn't expect that there would be a wave of comparison among the rich, and a group of rich people would donate another sum, just for the name to be able to move forward.

Although the title of ambassador of love is useless, the comparison between rich people is often not the use value of things, and reputation is often more important.

And many far-sighted people feel that this honorary title is probably not just a vanity.

So donations became more enthusiastic.

Unknowingly, this made Lantian County financially richer, and this money was directly used by Li Chaosheng to expand the firearms workshop.

This time, a total of 15 taels of donations were accepted, and Li Chaosheng didn't keep a cent. All the stud firearms workshops, and the firearms workshops seemed petty no matter how they sounded. In the control area, a larger factory was built and named Lantian No. [-] Arsenal.

At the same time, the research and development and production of flintlock guns will be expanded, and a large number of grenade production workshops will be expanded, all of which will operate on assembly lines. However, although there is money, it may take several months to complete.

The old firearms workshops are now all converted to grenade production, and currently they can manufacture [-] grenades a day.

It doesn't matter what it is, as long as one is produced, after the scale is formed, both the cost and the production speed will increase rapidly.

In fact, the most difficult part of the grenade is the small parts inside. This requires a car model. For this reason, Li Chaosheng specially found the Academy Science and Technology Park and asked them to imitate the lathe.

And told the science and technology park the principle of the lathe, let them see if they can make a manual lathe, or a lathe that uses energy such as a water wheel. If the lathe is manufactured, the future production will become very simple.

Li Chaosheng is looking forward to this.

Lantian County is still thriving.

Luo Rucai, the Heisha God is still harming Dali County, and Li Chaosheng received a telegram from the special brigade who had been in Dali County for a long time.

The special brigade has a total of 200 people, the captain Li Chaomeng, and the deputy captain Zhao San.

Of these two people, Li Chaomeng needless to say, Zhao San is also a ruthless man, good at martial arts, good at rock climbing, and fighting in the jungle, and these two hundred people were selected by Li Chaomeng from all the major armies, and each one can resist The person who caught Li Chaomeng's two punches.

Those who can withstand Li Chaomeng's two punches are all great talents. If it weren't for the fact that the Lantian County Army has cultivated a group of strong guys over the years, Li Chaomeng wouldn't even be able to match the 200 people.

As for Zhao San, he used to be a member of the Escort Bureau and was the most famous head of the Escort Bureau. Later, the Escort Bureau disappeared and he was exiled to Lantian County. He had a fight with Li Chaomeng on the street because of a misunderstanding, and Li Chaomeng was beaten five times. After going on, he was introduced by Li Chaomeng to join the army. After a series of assessments, he met the requirements of the special brigade and became the deputy captain of the special brigade.

There are a total of 200 people in the special brigade, and each person is equipped with two short-fire guns, a special warfare dagger, and each has a long-fire gun and some ammunition.

The long gun is also specially made, with a hook on the muzzle, which can be used to hang a special warfare dagger on it to become a long weapon, which is the original shape of a bayonet. The captain is equipped with binoculars, night vision goggles, and an AK47 specially issued by Li Chaosheng. It is Li Chaomeng's equipment, and some special warfare kettles and other equipment that require long-term mountain warfare.

Today, Li Chaomeng, the captain of the special brigade, led 400 people from the special brigade to ambush among the houses in Xuzhuang Town, and [-] people from the Shi Xiaolei Musketeer Battalion were also ambushed in the woods outside Xuzhuang Town.

The Firearms Battalion has always been the firearms experiment force in Lantian County. The latest weapons and equipment are the first to be equipped with firearms. Now the firearms equipped by the Firearms Battalion are the latest double-barreled firearms developed by Lantian County. In fact, there are two barrels, which can hold two ammunition. , when excited, has a shotgun feel.

And the reason why they ambushed in Xuzhuang Town in the middle of the night was to wait for Ma Shouying's cavalry. The spies reported that Ma Shouying's cavalry would attack Xuzhuang Town at night tonight, so they wanted to wipe out Ma Shouying's cavalry here!
