Chapter 1,660 Counterinsurgency

"Uh..." Colander couldn't help but froze for a moment, then picked up the pen after thinking about it: "Let me draw a picture for everyone!"

While painting, he explained: "There are semi-open and closed tunnels. Originally, after the cement factory was built, we could cast prefabricated parts and lay water channels."

"But if we want to provide emergency relief to the people, we can only take the road first."

So on and so on, Colander quickly drew a pipe pattern: "My suggestion is a closed pipe. There are many boatmen in Guangzhou. They are good at filling the gaps in ship boards with bamboo batting and rosin to make wooden boats..."

Elder Xin suddenly understood: "The truck of rosin sent to me by Tanhualang Dasu was originally used for this purpose? Excellent!"

Colander said: "The bamboo should be old bamboo, which is bamboo that has been cut for more than a year and is dry and strong. Green bamboo is not very durable..."

Everyone looked at Tao Anmin: "This will trouble Master Tao."

Tao Anmin said with a smile: "Bamboo grows quickly, and I love its nature. I have planted 400 acres of bamboo orchards. I collect a lot every year, but I have some inventory."

"Even if one moso bamboo takes three feet, it's only four to five hundred. I gave Tanhua Lang the gift of this small amount of bamboo!"

The colander couldn't help but be overjoyed: "Thank you so much, Mr. Tao!"

Tao Anmin waved his hand: "But this bamboo can't be given away for free."

Colander asked: "I wonder if there are any rules and regulations for me to ask for advice?"

Tao Anmin shook the osmanthus in his hand: "Just now, Tan Hua Lang was cheating and cheating all the way. Now I will punish you to write a poem with the theme of osmanthus. If you don't do it well, the bamboo will be gone. If you do it well, I will

Not only did he assist Tanhualang with hundreds of bamboos..."

After speaking, the flower branches lit up several people around him: "We also mobilized the gentry to donate money and food to build a water reservoir in the city!"

"I told you earlier!" Colander said, "I already have the lyrics!"

Walking back to the desk, Colander was writing quickly, and in the blink of an eye, a poem appeared on the paper.

The body is dull, light yellow, soft in nature, and only the fragrance remains.

Why does it need light blue and deep red? It is naturally the best among flowers.

The plum blossoms are jealous, the chrysanthemums are ashamed, and the painted lanterns bloom to crown the Mid-Autumn Festival.

Scholars can be ruthless, why can't things come to an end now?

"Beautiful!" Jiang Zhiqi was overjoyed: "It's worth taking Ziheng on the trip today!"

Tao Anmin twisted his beard and praised: "'No need for light blue and deep red, it is naturally the best among flowers.' This word should be the top of this year's Pujian Tour!"

Lao Lao secretly sighed in his heart, there are many vague metaphors in the poem "Little Junior Sister", "Love is far away, only fragrance remains", which expresses his resentment towards his official career in Guangzhou and thousands of miles away.

He even complained that he was not in a good mood and even ran away without getting married.

She didn't even think about how she was only twelve years old!

Looking at the surprised masters around you, old men, you are really happy. This poem will definitely be spread. If the junior sister knows about it...

I couldn't help but shudder when I thought of this. After I came down the mountain, I quickly wrote a letter and explained everything about today honestly. Otherwise, I'm afraid life would be difficult after the incident.

During the Guangzhou Mid-Autumn Festival Pujian Poetry Festival in the 6th year of Yuanyou, the newly arrived Xiao Su's comment on one poem, one word, was recognized by the whole city of Guangzhou.

Xiao Su Tanhua directly went to the blacksmith shop to make an iron plate, cut small slits on the edge of the iron plate, and then made the iron plate hard through weird processing to make a saw machine to process the bamboo tube.

He also made an iron spear weighing fifteen kilograms, hoisted it with a pulley, and used gravity to cut through the bamboo joints to become a large bamboo tube.

The large bamboo tube is wrapped with linen and painted with paint to make a water pipe.

Xiao Su Tanhua had already inspected the route, and it only took seven days to introduce the Pujian Fairy Spring five miles away into the city with the strong assistance of the Guangzhou Zhechong Division, the Guangzhou Shipping Division shipwrights, and the people of Hecheng!

The city has not yet had time to build a large pond, so now it can only let the spring water flow into the ditch. However, Xiao Su Tanhua asked the Zhechong Division to organize a water tanker for firefighting to temporarily deliver water to everyone.

The Tibetan people in Fanfang were also very happy. Puyan, the Tibetan chief, approached Jiang Zhiqi and expressed that the Tibetans were willing to donate money to build five pools in Guangzhou, as well as the cement factory that Xiao Su Tongpan mentioned.

There was a Tibetan man wearing Hanfu and a t-shirt beside Pu Yana. He took the opportunity to see Xiao Su Tongpan and submitted the petition.

The petition accuses Liu Guang, the peripheral officer of the Guangzhou Shipping Department, who took advantage of his language and work to impersonate an official of the Song Dynasty, deceive superiors and subordinates, oppress the Tibetan people, forge bills, and enrich his own pockets.

A small official, who in Jiang Zhiqi's eyes was no better than ordinary people, couldn't help but became furious when he saw the case and demanded a strict investigation by the torture chamber.

Several officials who were related to Liu Guang also tried to cover up and arrest the Tibetan man who complained, and died in prison without anyone noticing.

They almost succeeded, but the young man was caught in the Guangzhou prison camp, and the Shibo Division and the Zhechong Division surrounded the prison camp. Not only did they rescue the young man, but they also arrested a large number of unscrupulous officials.

Because although the young man was a Fan, he was a native of the Song Dynasty, and he was also a Song person with an official position - he discovered the Golden Urn City of Daxi Prefecture for the Song Dynasty, and was rewarded by the court and promoted to the post of Dafan in Penang Jieduli.

The son of Shang Pushan, Enyin’s envoy to the Song Dynasty, Pu Marco!

The family has plenty of money, and Pu Marco's hobby is traveling. He can be called the Song Dynasty's version of Xu Xiake, who travels around on sea ships all day long.

The small case of Liu Guang taking advantage of the general to embezzle Nurma, the son of a Tibetan merchant, gradually turned into a major case in which some officials of the Guangzhou Shipping Department colluded with the general to embezzle the property of Tibetan merchants and even His Majesty!

Five powerful local families in Guangzhou fell into this storm. They forged government documents and bills, signed "white contracts" for Tibetan merchants, that is, empty contracts that were not registered with the Municipal Shipping Department, and then tried to embezzle them.

The Song Dynasty was quite effective in protecting merchants, especially on large trade routes such as Nanhai and Hexi.

Jiang Zhiqi conquered five families and confiscated their property, confiscating a total of 500,000 yuan!

However, the five major families are not easy to mess with. They fled to Xinzhou, colluded with a Cen Tan wizard, and gathered people to rebel!

This Cen Tan believed in witchcraft and claimed to be possessed by spirits. He often gathered people to perform rituals. The former magistrate once arrested him for "contempting people with his evil words", but he ran away.

The government then arrested his family and threw them into prison. Tan Cen also brought hundreds of his disciples and disciples to the city to beg for his family, claiming that if his family was not released, he would scream three times and the city would fall.

Of course the government ignored him, but there was nothing they could do.

After Jiang Zhiqi arrived in Guangzhou, he posted a notice to punish him for the crime of leading a crowd to attack the city.

When Cen Tan saw that there was no way to survive, he simply did nothing and continued to raise a banner to occupy the mountain and become the king in order to protect himself.

When the five major families joined in, Cen Tan's momentum grew, and he soon developed a strength of more than 2,000 people, claiming to seize Guangzhou and occupy Lingnan.

This was a rebellion, and Jiang Zhiqi was not a good person. He immediately labeled the bandits as traitors and ordered the Guangzhou capital to take charge of Yang Congxian and pass judgment on Su Yue to quell the rebellion.

Yang Congxian was the general who led the Guangnan Navy to fight against Jiaozhi with Su You, but the Guangnan Navy at that time was a weakling, and even the Jiaozhi Inland River Navy couldn't defeat that kind.

So Su You arranged for them to perform in their true colors, go deep into the Fuliang River in conjunction with Jiaozhi Navy's strategy, and make dumplings for Jiaozhi's Fuliang River Navy and Yuanjiang Navy.

Suyou sent Li Xian to lead six giant ships of the Jin Dynasty and then rushed into the Fuliang River, blocking the Jiaozhi Navy in the Fuliang River and annihilating them. However, he took command of the Taishan and attacked Thanglong along the undefended Yuanjiang River.

City, captured the kings and ministers of the Li Dynasty of Jiaozhi, and reversed the stalemate war situation in one fell swoop.

Yang Cong didn't get any credit at first. He just cleaned up the battlefield after Li Xian's rampage and collected dozens of Jiaozhi broken wooden boats. Afterwards, he got a small promotion and became the governor of Guangnan East Road. He was in charge of the navy and the state of Guangzhou.

military.

However, Guangzhou has not developed well in recent years. The Nanyang Navy has done all the work of the Guangnan Navy. It can be seen from Yang Congxian's official position that Guangnan East Road has jurisdiction over both water and land. This name is still the title of the old army.

After the arrival of Colander, he reported it to the imperial court, and transferred many retired soldiers from the New Army from Yunzhou to put on airs, and then transformed the Guangzhou Prefecture Army into the Zhechong Division.

However, Zhe Chongsi has been working as an engineering soldier in the past few months. After receiving the order to counter the rebellion, if he hadn't seen that Tanhua Lang was very interesting to everyone in the past few months, with a full salary and delicious fish to eat every day, he would have dispersed long ago.

.

However, at least the clothes were neatly dressed, and although the muskets had not been fired yet, they were armed with crane-shank crossbows that had been eliminated by the imperial court. The team of 700 people still had some momentum.

The Yi people of Xinzhou believed deeply in witchcraft. Before Colander sent out troops, they asked the natives to spread the legend that the son of the great witch was coming.

Then a compilation of rewards was drawn up and posted everywhere, announcing that except for the leader Cen Tan and the heads of the five major families, the rest of the followers would be exempted as long as they surrendered.
