The Great Bandit in Kangxi Year

Chapter 120 Development of Firearms
"My Xu family is willing to cease fighting with the Black Tiger Army. I don't know what the general wants?" The Xu family stared at Jiang Tao without blinking, and said firmly.

Jiang Tao sneered and said, "A truce? The general heard it right, right?"

Dai Jiao smiled proudly: "Could it be that your Xu family has something to rely on? A truce? It's a good idea!"

"Huh, my Xu family still has two thousand troops, and your Black Tiger Army must be having a hard time. The imperial court army is gathering, and they are definitely attacking you. You have used more than a thousand elite soldiers for my Xu family. Isn't it a mistake? Strength?" Xu Jia snorted and sneered in a threatening tone.

"Haha, interesting, keep talking!" Jiang Tao stopped Dai Jiao and the others who were about to reprimand severely, and laughed. In fact, he was already extremely angry, and he hated others threatening him the most.

"The general is really extraordinary. As long as the general agrees to cease the war, my Xu family will give the general 5 taels of silver and ten thousand shi of grain. It can be said that everyone is happy." Xu Jia was overjoyed and continued.

"Come here, see off the guests, and send ten thousand taels of silver up the mountain." Jiang Tao waved his hands again and again when he heard this, he didn't want to listen to his nonsense anymore, thinking: "When the silver goes up the mountain, there will always be someone who believes in this general If so.

Xu Jia was immediately held back by two majestic black tiger guards. Thinking of his uncle's entrustment, he struggled desperately and said, "How unwise the general is!"

Jiang Tao shouted in a deep voice: "The Xu family has only one way, and that is to go down the mountain and surrender, so as to keep the family alive!"

Xu Jia snorted secretly, and stopped talking, thinking: "Since you have a lot of money in the Black Tiger Army, then we will not be polite."

When the man was taken away, Dai Jiao added fuel and jealousy: "The Xu family is really unreasonable. General, let's attack Gaoshanzhai again, otherwise it will be difficult to get rid of the hatred in my heart."

"Hehe, there is no need to attack, Gaoshanzhai will not be captured in a short time." Jiang Tao smiled confidently, and Wei Donglai understood and laughed too.

"Could it really come true?" Dai Jiao wondered suspiciously, and then secretly said: "Whatever, the Xu family has greatly offended the general this time, so what if they surrender?"

.........................
In the large wing room of Gaoshanzhai, the elders of the Xu family could no longer stand up, and the Xu family was kneeling on the ground beside the bed. The silver was brought in, and they could have held on to it, but if the soldiers lose their minds in this way, they will definitely kill all my Xu family members for the gold and silver, and I am really angry."

"I don't think anyone dares to rely on those muddy legs?" Xu Jia stood up fiercely and shouted dissatisfied.

"Ahem, time is fate, come down the mountain quickly, please come down, maybe you are in a hurry." The elder raised his head violently, shouted unwillingly, and suddenly fell on the bed again and did not move.

Xu Jia stepped forward to have a look, then withdrew his hand abruptly, crying, "Uncle Clan!"

Tears hadn't shed a few drops, and he shouted sharply: "Why are you crying? Now that the Xu family is in turmoil, A has decided to die rather than surrender. What do you think?"

At this moment, there were bursts of screams and shouts of killing, Xu Jia was startled, did those mud legs really rebel?
.....................

It was the next day when Jiang Tao got the news that Gao Shanzhai had been breached. No one from Xu’s family survived. In the end, after all, there was a loss of peace, that's all, and finally took full control of Jinzhai County.

Anyway, this place was handed over to Wei Donglai and others, and Jiang Tao no longer hesitated, and went straight back to the base with the Black Tiger Guard and the fake prince.

However, Jinzhai County did not calm down, and a vigorous campaign to divide the land began.

In the villages, however, a fast-moving marriage movement was launched. Those who were not married were all married. Many children in their teens had married. The villages were all happy and organized, as if they were celebrating the coming of a good day.

This was unexpected by Wei Donglai and others. After all, if they want to get married and separate their families, you, the Black Tiger Army, can't take care of them.

When reporting to Jiang Tao, he was watching the musket firing.

Jiang Tao felt dumbfounded. The Black Tiger Army has no legislation now. If it followed the laws of the Qing Dynasty, it really wouldn't be a violation of the law. He sighed in his heart: "Okay, the Black Tiger Army will be taken advantage of once."

Hastily ordered: "As long as there is one family, they can get five acres of land, but it must be found out that it must not be claimed in vain, and it must not be deceived. In addition, several mines in Jinzhai County will resume production. Reformed through labor in the past."

bang bang bang...

After the gun test, Jiang Tao looked at the parameters of the three guns and was overjoyed. He saw that the musket made by his uncle was the most practical and powerful. The meter can still penetrate armor, and it is a tunnel-fired musket.

The appearance of this gun is not exquisite, but it is easy to make and durable, which is exactly what the Black Tiger Army needs.

"Okay, this gun is called the Mielu gun, and I will make it with all my strength immediately!" Jiang Tao knew that with the level of craftsmen in his hand, he could no longer surpass the performance of this gun. It is much more difficult to make, and you can only think of ideas on the barrel.

Jiang Zhongfu smiled and said nothing, Bai Lao and Wang Lao hurriedly responded: "Follow orders!"

"Wait a minute, every musket produced must be marked. If there is a quality problem, it will be directly held accountable for the individual. In addition, for every musket made by Shenjiangying, this general will praise Shenjiangying for two taels of silver. Well, by the way, organize another capable team to develop more advanced muskets." Jiang Tao knew the importance of product quality and hurriedly urged.

"This subordinate understands." Both Bai Lao and Wang Lao were surprised, and they replied in unison.

"Well, good." Jiang Tao nodded, and waited for the two to go down, he quickly bowed to Jiang Zhong and said, "Uncle knows water warfare. Uncle must know about Huoqiu County."

"This matter is indeed a bit tricky, but we can block the river, so that the Tartar navy cannot enter." Jiang Zhong also had no good way, so he suggested.

"Blocking is always not a solution. By the way, we are upstream, and we will not be afraid no matter how many sailors come." Jiang Tao was ecstatic all of a sudden, and thought of a clever plan, but he was not sure of winning. It would depend on the sailors. of the operation.

"That's good. The 30 tiger squat guns can come to collect in half a month, and the paper shell bullets are also being produced. A paper factory has been built for this purpose." Seeing this, Jiang Zhong felt relieved. Heihu can easily solve it in front of him. Could it be because of a few more Artemisia plants growing on the ancestral grave of Lao Jiang's family?

"By the way, there is a sharp weapon that is not only easy to make, but also powerful in melee combat. Uncle can develop it first, and if it succeeds, it can be mass-produced." Jiang Tao suddenly thought of the grenade. The difficulty lies in the device that delays the explosion.

"Well, it's really extraordinary, so I won't accompany my uncle any longer." Jiang Zhong raised his interest, stopped talking, and ran back to the Divine Craftsman Camp.

Jiang Tao smiled helplessly. There are many sharp weapons in his heart, but he lacks time. I wonder if Kangxi will give the Black Tiger Army a few days to respond. It has been a week now, and it is estimated that there are not many. Chinese New Year, I hope the Black Tiger Army can have a good year.

Thinking of the tens of thousands of simple folks, Jiang Tao's heart ignited again, and he ordered in a deep voice: "Come on, let the navy send ships of all sizes to keep an eye on the movement of the river section in Huoqiu County. , report to me immediately."

"Let's go, let's go to the navy camp!" Jiang Tao rode directly on the fast horse, and at the same time gave a soft shout to the guards around him.
