Father-in-law Zhu Di, I am so happy to marry the disfigured princess

Chapter 304 Li Xiao puts down the rebellion, the mantis catches the cicada and the oriole follows!

"I don't need to worry about anything, I can do it with confidence, is that what the emperor said?"

Somewhere in Guangxi, Li Xiao had just resolved a rebellion, and Jiang Kangming, who came to reply, brought back the news.

Jiang Kangming cupped his hands and said: "That's right, the Supreme Emperor trusts you very much, the patriarch. Even if he knew about your formation of a private army, he just laughed it off and didn't mean to be angry."

In the Ming Dynasty, forming a private army was a major crime to destroy the Nine Tribes.

What, my nine clans include Zhu Yuanzhang himself?
oh that's all right
Li Xiao nodded, thinking that even if he had been away for a while, his position in Zhu Yuanzhang's mind was still unshakable.

During this period of time, Li Xiao ordered Li Jinglong to go to various places in Nanzhili to carry out forced demolitions, while he led his private army to suppress rebellion everywhere.

The efficiency of countering the rebellion is very high. Thousands of cavalry are galloping fast, coming and going like the wind, armed with automatic rifles, and coupled with modern fighting methods, they are crushed everywhere.

The reason why they are fast is that they don't need any luggage. Li Xiao's cavalry use high-quality sweat-blooded BMWs, which can travel thousands of miles a day. They bring canned dry food for use on the road, and they can supply them at any time in towns.

Li Xiao looked at the map and asked, "How many unresolved rebellions are there?"

Chang Yingwu pointed to the map and said: "The scouts came to report, and there are two in Guangxi, one in Annan has been dealt with by Mu Ying, then three in Guizhou, and two in western Hunan. These rebellions are all local chieftains."

"Several rebellions are chieftains." Li Xiao murmured, "It seems that the matter of reforming the land and returning to the locals is also on the agenda."

The so-called Tusi refers to the Tusi system of the Ming Dynasty. This system was handed down from the Yuan Dynasty. The Tusi system was a means to win over the native leaders in the southwestern border areas that the central government could not take care of. Recognizing the hereditary status of the leaders of the ethnic minorities and giving them official titles for indirect rule, the imperial edicts of the central government have not been truly implemented.

Under the rule of the chieftain, the land and the people are hereditary owned by the chieftain. The chieftains each form a sphere of influence, and they can govern themselves in judicial, financial, administrative, and military affairs. Ascend to the throne and proclaim the emperor, everything else is even compared to the emperor, and only a symbolic payment of meager taxes to the court is required.

These chieftains are actually the local emperors. They don’t have that strong affiliation with the Ming Dynasty. They often do some things. In order to calm down the matter, the court often sends troops to suppress them. When the native people entered the mountains and forests, it was difficult to find their traces. In the end, the imperial court would distribute benefits to appease them.

In the Qing Dynasty, the Qing government implemented the policy of reforming the land and returning it to local people. While taking tough military measures such as garrisoning troops, stationing troops, repairing borders, and building cards, it vigorously promoted the "Confucianization" of the chieftain area.

These mainly include establishing a Confucian education system by setting up official schools, academies, free schools, etc., granting financial aid to scholars of ethnic minorities and preferential quotas for imperial examinations, paying attention to the worship of Confucian sages, promulgating orders to prohibit many religious sacrificial activities and customs of the Miao people, and promoting Three cardinal guides and five constant principles and the concept of loyalty, filial piety and righteousness, etc.

After reforming the land and returning the country, the country has almost become a unity in terms of culture and sense of belonging.

The current construction of Jianzhou is actually to reform the land and return it to the people.

It seems that the chieftains in the south should also be reformed and returned to the people, so as to make the Ming Dynasty a truly unified dynasty.

Li Xiao said with a smile: "It seems that these chieftains rebelled at the same time, and they still have flintlock guns in their hands. It must be the ghost of Mr. Liang. Originally, his plan should be to cause chaos in the whole Nanzhili, and then rebellion in various places. We were overwhelmed and couldn't deal with it, and finally compromised, and he achieved his goal. But they didn't expect that the families in Nanzhili did not rebel on a large scale. On the contrary, these chieftains dared to fight and do it, but it is not difficult to wipe them out. After all, our troops are invincible."

Chang Yingwu said angrily: "This Mr. Liang is really a pest, we must destroy him."

Li Xiao nodded: "Don't worry, King Zhao has already gone to investigate this matter, and he will definitely find out something."

As he was talking, suddenly a subordinate came to report, and King Zhao begged to see him.

It really means that Cao Cao and Cao Cao are here.

Not long after, Zhao Wang Zhu Gaosui came into the room.

"Brother-in-law!" Zhu Gaosui walked over with a solemn expression, and said, "We found it!"

At this time, Zhu Gaosui was wearing unusual clothes, apparently worn by ethnic minorities in Yunnan, which looked a bit like the clothes of the Dai people.

Wearing the clothes on Zhu Gaosui's body, it was somewhat funny and disheveled, with a thick beard hanging on his lips, like a disguise technique.

Li Xiao couldn't help laughing, and joked, "Hahaha, Gao Sui, why are you wearing this suit? It fits you well."

Zhu Gaosui looked at his clothes, and then smiled helplessly: "It's not for the purpose of investigating the so-called Mr. Liang, but it has already been found, shocking news! Absolutely amazing!"

Zhu Gaosui, who was ordered to investigate before, traveled thousands of miles and went deep into the enemy's nest in order to track down the news. He almost died, but with his ingenuity, he found the news without any danger.

"Gao Sui, thank you for your hard work. It seems that you have suffered a lot during this trip."

Li Xiao hurriedly helped Zhu Gaosui to the chair, poured tea himself, Zhu Gaosui took a sip of the tea, and then said, "Thank you brother-in-law."

Li Xiao said with concern: "Why are you thanking me? I should be the one thanking you. Your life is not in danger, right?"

Zhu Gaosui smiled and said, "I almost couldn't come back, but fortunately there was no danger. Let's get down to business."

As he said that, Zhu Gaosui's eyes fell on Chang Yingwu, which meant that this fact was important, and other people didn't have to listen to it.

"Chang Yingwu, please step aside for now."

Li Xiao waved his hand.

Chang Yingwu backed down.

When the room was empty, Zhu Gaosui whispered: "Brother-in-law, I have already figured out the ins and outs. All of this is caused by two people."

Li Xiao sat down slowly, looked at Zhu Gaosui, and said, "Don't worry, just speak slowly."

Zhu Gaosui hummed, and then said: "The first person is Lan Bin, the son of Lan Yu, who was rescued many years ago. This person was rescued by an organization called Dark Net, which is an assassination organization secretly cultivated by Lan Yu. , there are Tiangang, Shura, Wuchang, and Tengu under their banner. These four are highly skilled in martial arts and have their own strengths. They plunder babies from all over the country and cut off their tongues. They have cultivated assassins since they were young. The assassin you killed in Nanjing last time was from them In addition, they were responsible for the robbery of the tax money many years ago, and after getting the tax money, they fled Annan and secretly developed their power."

"So that's the case." Li Xiao also thoroughly understood the reason, and said, "Then who is the other person?"

"You will never think of another person, brother-in-law."

Zhu Gaosui paused and continued, "It's Zhu Yunxie right under your nose!"

"what???"

Hearing the words Zhu Yunxi, Li Xiao was very surprised: "Zhu Yunxi? Isn't he already dead? And during the time in the capital, his performance was normal. He was shooting movies with Zhu Yunxi all day long."

"Don't tell me that you are surprised, brother-in-law. When I learned the news, I was extremely surprised. This Zhu Yunxi even deceived me. I didn't notice anything strange about him when we were in the capital."

Zhu Gaosui twitched the corner of his mouth: "Zhu Yunxi is really strange. He has been in the prison for nearly ten years, but after he came out, not only did he not become dementia, but the dementia on the surface was all pretended. He actually kept a low profile and hid it from everyone. , in fact, there was nothing unusual about him on the surface in the capital, but secretly he contacted Tiangang secretly. These conspiracy layouts in Nanjing were all proposed by Zhu Yunxi. He secretly learned your brother-in-law's methods of governing the city in the capital, and then also He secretly kidnapped the craftsman of the flintlock gun, which is why the flintlock gun was lost. Originally, he planned to cause chaos in the world, and then take the opportunity to seize Hanzhong to conquer the world."

Li Xiao frowned slightly: "What about now?"

Zhu Gaosui said: "Now Zhu Yunxi has discovered that he is definitely not your opponent. Originally, he thought that with the flintlock gun, he could bridge the gap between the army and the general, but the appearance of the automatic rifle broke his plan. So he gave up this idea. , and now he intends to take his forces to continue south, to Mupang, Myanmar and other places, they are trying to establish their own dynasty, as if they intend to use the banner of Dali to restore the country in Myanmar and other places."

Li Xiao: "????"

This brain circuit stunned Li Xiao for a moment.

Mupang, Myanmar and other places are actually the future Myanmar.

In the 15th year of Hongwu, the 30-strong army of the Ming Dynasty eliminated the remaining forces of the Liang King of Yunnan and the Dali Kingdom, and established the Yunnan Chief Envoy Division and the Yunnan Dusi Division, stationed with 20 troops.

Yunnan during the Ming Dynasty can be divided into two parts. One part is the area under actual control and is called "inner barbarians".

The other part is the Burmese region that nominally inherited the Yuan Dynasty. It has no actual control, no soldiers are stationed, and no officials are dispatched. They are called "foreign barbarians".

During the period of Zhu Yuanzhang, the "foreign barbarian" chieftains were entrusted with four Xuanweisi in Myanmar, Cheli, Laos, and Babai, and five Tufus in Mubang, Mengyang, Mengding, Dahou, and Nandian.

In fact, these places are not under the control of the Ming Dynasty, and they are all independent small countries. The chieftains of these chieftains actually call themselves kings.

In 1531, King Toungoo officially became the king of Myanmar and established the Toungoo Dynasty. After that, he successively annexed small kingdoms such as Bagu, Awa, Xibo, Manmo, Mengyang, Mengmi, Mengnai, and Yanghui. By 1554 Basically unified the Myanmar region.

The war between the Ming Dynasty and Myanmar lasted for decades, and the final result was that Toungoo unified the entire Myanmar and occupied half of the Indochina Peninsula.

Originally, the Yuan Dynasty had pushed its territory to the periphery of the Indian Ocean. Unfortunately, the Ming Dynasty failed to control this area and was eventually unified by the Toungoo Dynasty.

The Toungoo Dynasty fought against the Ming Dynasty again, which greatly reduced the size of Yunnan.

After the establishment of the Qing Dynasty, areas such as Mubang were recovered, but they were still occupied by the British at the end of the period.

Li Xiao picked up the tea, took a sip, and said, "Isn't the news from Zhu Yunxi that he fell off the cliff and died? The emperor's grandfather buried him himself. It's impossible. How did he come back to life?"

Zhu Gaosui smiled and said: "This is the masterpiece of the dark net tengu. This person is good at this skill. He cheated the sky and the sea. The one who died was a scapegoat. He pretended to be Zhu Yunxi when he fell to a bloody mess. He even lied to the emperor's grandfather." It's over."

Li Xiao was surprised and said: "Amazing, even a shrewd person like the emperor's grandfather was able to deceive him, and now he appeared in Annan and planned to establish a country by himself. This is really a clever plan. Zhu Yunxi did not show such intelligence ten years ago. It's surprising how it suddenly became so powerful."

Zhu Gaosui said: "I'm also surprised about this matter. Zhu Yunxi seems to have suddenly enlightened. If he was so powerful ten years ago, he would not have been sent to prison. Brother-in-law, this matter should be reported to the emperor's grandfather and elder brother immediately. The imperial court must send troops to destroy it. In order to avoid future troubles."

"No"

Li Xiao waved his hand: "Let me think about it."

Li Xiao felt that it would be a good thing if Myanmar could be completely included in the territory of the Ming Dynasty.

But obviously, the imperial court does not have so much energy to do this matter now.

And judging from this period of time, this Zhu Yunxie has some skills.

The most important thing is that he secretly learned his own governance methods, as well as the flintlock gun, maybe he can really do it!

Although Zhu Yunxi was a traitor, he was a citizen of the Ming Dynasty after all.

Thinking of this, Li Xiao smiled and said, "Gao Sui, do you think Zhu Yunxie can rule the southern Burma region and establish a dynasty?"

Zhu Gaosui thought for a while, and said: "Lan Bin has the ability to lead troops to fight, Zhu Yunxi has the ability to strategize, plus their darknet organization, and their powerful weapons, flintlock guns, I'm afraid they can really accomplish this!"

"Hahahaha." Li Xiao said: "In that case, there is no need to tell anyone about this matter. Just hide it and let them worry about it."

Zhu Gaosui was puzzled: "Why? Are we going to let this scourge go unpunished? When he rules over there, he will be a great enemy to me towards the frontier."

"No." Li Xiao said with a smile: "Looking at Kyushu from a hundred feet away, the predecessors harvested the land and the descendants harvested it. The descendants don't rejoice after harvesting it, and even more people will harvest it later."

"Brother-in-law means"

Zhu Gaosui's eyes lit up, and he said, "I will take over the dynasty that Lan Bin, Zhu Yunxi and others have worked so hard to build up? But brother-in-law, don't you worry that it will get out of hand?"

Li Xiao nodded: "It's okay, the situation over there is complicated. If they want to really rule, it will be impossible for them to rule in 20 years. After 20 years, when they rule over there and build the Dali Kingdom, our Ming Dynasty will You can enjoy the benefits of being a fisherman and put them into your pocket directly. At that time, Lan Bin and Lan Nao'er were almost old, and in our dynasty, we still have outstanding juniors like Zhu Zhanji!"

Of course, there is also Li Xiao himself.

I am immortal, who can endure it?
"Wonderful!" Zhu Gaosui immediately agreed, and said with a smirk: "Okay, let's hide the fact that Lan Bin and Zhu Yunxi are still alive for now, God knows and the earth knows you and I know."

Li Xiao nodded: "Okay, Gao Sui, you did a good job in this matter, then help me rehabilitate together, I will distribute you five hundred cavalry, and we will divide our troops into two groups to quickly suppress the rebellion in various places."

Zhao Wang Zhu Gaosui is also a capable general. He showed his military strength in the conquest of Japan. With him, he is like a tiger with wings.

Zhu Gaosui cupped his hands: "Take orders!"

That's it.

Li Xiao's modern automatic rifle cavalry troops were divided into two groups and began to go to various places to quell the rebellion.

In less than one month, all the rebellions were suppressed at an extremely fast speed.

And Zhu Yunxi also got his wish. Taking advantage of Li Xiao's lack of time to look after him, he left Annan with a large army, went to Mubang and other places in the south of Neng, and began to conquer under the banner of Dali
And Nanzhili and other places.

After one month, with the suppression of Li Jinglong's army everywhere, all the families were forced to compromise.

The yamen in the She District has been fully implemented and built in every village.

This is the first step to success. With a base, the next step is to take over the management and control in an all-round way!
