Changfeng Thousands of Miles End Han Song

Chapter 858 A New Volume—Ten Years Later...

Time flies, time flies, ten years go by...

……

Hongwu 13 years, early February.

The night is like a thick inkstone, so deep that it cannot be melted. The moon in the sky is faint and the stars are sparse. The whole city of Guangzhou seems to have fallen into a deep sleep.

There are no pedestrians on the street at this time. Even in a prosperous place like Guangzhou, at this moment, except for the brothel and Chuguan, most of the houses have turned off the lights and are sleeping. Occasionally, some people still have fires on, but there is no trace of it. sound.

The word "night market" does not exist in today's world.

And at this time, a group of musketeers in cotton armor rushed straight into Funing Fang.The soldiers walked in neat steps and formed a strict team. They marched on the street like a torrent, and stopped when they reached a cross street.

Musketeers, a group of Musketeers under the control of Guangzhou Bingmashi.This is the Qi army at this time!
Ten years have passed, and the number of musketeers has expanded more than ten times from the ten battalions that were affiliated with the Gozensi in the early days. A full-stacked musket battalion.

Guangzhou is an important town in the south of China, and the defenders have their own musketeers.This epoch-making unit can often exert amazing energy in cooperation with the original infantry, artillery and cavalry.Even if they form an army alone, they are also extremely powerful.Because its development trajectory is completely different from that of the musketeers in history. At the beginning of its birth, bayonets were already accompanying them.

The torches were lit, and three great figures from different departments were clustered in the center.

The one in the middle is the inspector of eastern Guangdong, the left hand is the deputy chief of the eastern Guangdong military and horse envoy and the Guangzhou military envoy, and the right hand is the head of the eastern Guangdong security bureau.

"Pu Mansion?" Under the light of the fire, the inspector looked at the block in front of the left and sneered, and said to the two people behind: "You two, it's not too late, and you won't have long nights and dreams, so let's do it right away, my official rule monitor."

Right now, this drama is not just about exterminating the family, but also ransacking the house. According to the system of the Lu Qi Dynasty, this kind of thing must be accompanied by local officials to supervise.The Department of Security, the military, and the local prosecutor can only transcribe all affairs under the control of the three parties.

And if the matter is small and the military does not need to be dispatched, then the local parental officer will replace it.

But the current situation is obviously difficult for the Guangzhou government to deal with, and the number of police officers under the Guangzhou government is also quite large. As China's first-class big city, the police station here is equipped with an organized anti-riot armed police force. There are a total of 200 people, all composed of retired soldiers from the army, wearing iron armor, holding knives, guns, bows and crossbows, and their combat power is not inferior to that of the garrison.

But the current Pu family is no small matter.

He is a leader among the Chinese Tianfang descendants and has a huge influence among Tianfang merchants. He is also the first-class wealthy businessman in Guangzhou. He not only owns a large ocean-going fleet, but also a shipyard and a large trading house. .There are not only 8000 but also [-] people who depend on the Pu family for food.

Among the wealthy businessmen from Guangzhou, his family may not be among the top ten, but the Pu family is definitely among the top twenty.

The merchant ships of the Pu family have traveled between China and the sky for many years, and many of them are brave men. Although the court has its own laws, such people cannot live in the mansion for a long time, but who knows if the Pu family obeys the order, how many people will they have in their family? What about the slave warriors?In a fight, the police will inevitably be injured, and they may not be able to take good care of them.The Guangzhou City garrison must be dispatched for this matter!
Behind the three bosses, there are also some local officials such as the Guangzhou Fu Cheng and the police chief.The former is okay, he just came to Guangzhou to take office last year, but the latter has taken root in Guangzhou for seven or eight years.The police department is the first-level power department in the government. Wealthy businessmen like the Pu family must be friendly with them. No matter how big or powerful their background is, they must treat the Guangzhou Police Department well.

Donating some goods and materials during the holidays is a necessary human relationship.

The director is very familiar with the Pu family, seeing this situation, sighed in his heart: "The Pu family is over." But the end of the Pu family is not bad at all, collusion with foreign forces, spying on the secrets of guns and guns is nothing more than that.To even act boldly to smuggle guns to the outside world is really an old birthday star eating arsenic - rushing to die.

The number of guns in Lu Qi has increased greatly in the past ten years, and the scope has also spread a lot. Some secrets must not be kept.

How about the Liangshan cannon back then? Wasn't it also taken by Zhao Song in the end?

Foreign forces can cast guns, but their quality, unit cost, and even manufacturing speed and finished product qualification rate are greatly different from those in China.These are all military secrets.

Powder formulas are also difficult to keep secret.But it can keep secret the purification method of sulfur and saltpeter required for the medicinal powder, as well as the granulation of the medicinal powder.

Liangshanbo has always been the largest production base of the Qi army's gunpowder powder, and the reason is to keep it secret.For this reason, Emperor Lu did not hesitate to increase the cost of gunpowder.There are also many drug powder bureaus set up in various places, but the level of secrecy is extremely high.

The Tianfang people started spying on the guns ten years ago, and in the past two years they started spying on the Qi army's military powder.Wu who committed the crime will die a good death.

The Pu family was dragged into the water. Their family was extremely wealthy and they were the leading figures among the naturalized descendants. If they kept their own way, they might not be able to truly establish a foundation in China in one or two generations.But in the end they were still confused by their interests and feelings, so no one else was to blame.

But thinking about it the other way around, it can't be blamed entirely on Pu's ignorance.In recent years, due to the boom in maritime trade in Lu Qi, the Pu family, a naturalized person, was ordered by the Lu Qi officials to increase their influence. Their relationship with Tianfang has become increasingly serious, and the Tianfang color on them has become more and more intense. Can't wash it off.

There are gains and losses, and the important figures of the family have no future in the officialdom.

It is understandable to say that there is resentment.But they made such a choice and acted so boldly, which was beyond the sheriff's expectations.

Just when he was thinking this, the inspector waved his hand slightly and said: "General Zhou, let's start!"

At that time, he was the deputy general manager of the soldiers and horses in eastern Guangdong and the envoy of the soldiers and horses in Guangzhou.But no matter how lazy Zhou Tong is, he will never tolerate this kind of thing.

The latter didn't talk nonsense, and just waved his hand forward.

The musketeers immediately divided into two routes to the northwest, marched towards the destination, and surrounded Pufu in the sound of orderly footsteps.

At this time, there was already a reaction in the Pu Mansion. Several gongs rang, and a voice shouted: "There are thieves, fuck you!"

Although Zhou Tong couldn't see the inside clearly through the wall, he could feel the rush of people and panic inside just by listening with his ears.

"Boom..." There was a bang at the gate, and the entire heavy gate flew and shattered.Then I heard screams from inside.A large group of Musketeers rushed in from the door with their bayonets upright. After a short fight, all the Pu family's "family members" at the door fell down.These people are old and young, dressed in all kinds of clothes, but none of them are Han Chinese.

"The mob dares to resist!" Zhou Tong showed a sinister smile. He didn't have many soldiers, only 500.But musketeers are bulls.

Inside the gate, the corpses were lying on the ground, with blood flowing freely. Seeing this situation, although the remaining musketeers were still standing erect, they were ready to move.Not only were they not afraid, but there was also a hint of excitement on their faces.

It was only 13 years since the founding of Lu Qi. During these 13 years, the army of Qi conquered the north and south, and conquered the east and the west. The Qi army could be said to be a truly great army that fought a hundred battles.

The garrison in Lingnan does not fight as frequently as in the northwest, but it often goes to Indochina to suppress the area. Not only has everyone seen blood, but at least everyone has undergone rigorous training, so they will not be afraid of blood.On the contrary, for them, killing enemies is the greatest capital for getting rewards and promotions!Although there is little military merit for killing these thieves now, no matter how small the military merit is, it is still a military merit.The meat on the legs of ants is also meat.As long as the people in Pu's mansion resist, they can count on their merits.

To be honest, the more people who resist inside, the better.
