The Unjust System and My War-Crazy Self

But right.

There are only so many of them, how can they defeat the plant army that has more people than bullets?

Especially Shu Yichao also brought out the corn cannon-

Now, they couldn't even hold on a little longer.

Amidst loud "booms", brick and stone buildings one after another were reduced to rubble and ruins.

Then, in the chaos, the army of plants swarmed in and beat all the people inside into sieves.

Naturally, Shu Yichao accepted all the illegal gains of these pirates. He also rescued a large number of abducted people, which supplemented the population.

"Asshole!!" Alexia, who had just returned to her residence and hadn't even sat down yet, was so angry at the bad news that she fell over.

"This King of Dian

This is too much!"

After the losses were reported, Alexia's eyes turned red.

“Half a year of stockpiling.”

"Just reduced to ashes like that!?"

"hateful!"

"It's really hateful!!

The merciless autumn wind swept the fallen leaves, causing Alexia to feel heartbroken.

If she wants to maintain her position as a half-pirate leader, she must constantly search for wealth for the desperate criminals under her.

Otherwise, these people would devour her completely like bloodthirsty sharks.

Alexia bit her lip and really wanted to use her musket to reason with Shu Yichao.

but……

I can't afford it.

In the past, the French had fought a war with the Meng army because they wanted to seize and forcibly rent land.

The result.

The bounty for the head of a Frenchman is about the same as that for a Japanese pirate.

The surprises continue.

"No, these guys are still smuggling opium?

"Wait, why are there still opium dens in these places?"

"What kind of weird stuff is this!?"

Shu Yichao flipped through the report and was furious.

So he directly issued a ban -

"'Don't sell!

"Anyone who dares to sell or smoke will have their heads chopped off!"

This time, Alexia really couldn't help it.

Currently, this thing is almost equivalent to gold. It is one of the most valuable goods in Alexia's trade. It is easy to transport and has no worries about sales.

If Shu Yichao were to ban this, would she and her men be left to starve in the future?

So Alexia quickly asked someone to write a letter to defend herself.

"This is an excellent ointment for resting the mind, cultivating sentiment, and clearing the mind."

"Everyone who uses it will feel euphoric, as if they have reached heaven. If the king of heaven doesn't believe it, he can give it a try."

She also presented a set of high-end crystal opium tools.

then……

The person who submitted the letter was beheaded.

The head hung on the city wall, swaying in the wind, and the eyes that never blinked looked into the distance without any spirit.

Alexia was completely enraged.

"What is the King of Dian going to do?!"

Are you going to force us to death?"

Her subordinates were also very excited.

"Opium and opium dens are clearly a normal trade."

"What offended him?

"This King of Dian is clearly making trouble out of nothing and deliberately ostracizing us!"

"right!"

"That's right."

"I've seen a new wharf being built in Guangzhou these days.

"I heard from the workers over there that the King of Dian is planning to build a large port there—

"What kind of smoke is harmful to people!

"It's obvious that the King of Dian wants to form his own maritime trade caravan and kick us out! F!

"This madman must be taught a lesson!

“Otherwise he wouldn’t respect us at all.

"Lord, give the order." The pirate merchants looked at Alexia with eager eyes.

"The King of Dian doesn't even have a slightly larger ship."

"The plant and tree spirits under his command will be drowned if they fall into the sea!"

"Land warfare may be the King of Dian's forte, but naval warfare is our forte! Okay!

"As long as we board our warships, the Dian King's troops will be nothing but a mob. We can easily defeat them!"

"Yes, we can bombard Guangzhou City now and leave a deep impression on him!!'

"..." Alexia's expression changed and she tapped the table lightly.

"Do not."

Visible disappointment appeared on the pirate merchant's face.

The eyes of some of them began to flicker.

Apparently, Alexia's "weak" performance made them want to kick her off the stage.

Although Alexia Xian had a close relationship with the Governor-General of the Philippines in Manila, this good cooperative relationship was maintained with a huge amount of silver coins that flowed in like water every year.

If they could

"Our strength alone is not enough."

At this time, Alexia opened her mouth.

"A few dozen warships and a few thousand sailors going to fight against the Dian King's million-strong army?"

She shook her head.

“This is too unrealistic.

"Besides, what we need is a trade route that can carry out normal trade."

"What if we gain the upper hand at sea?

"If the King of Dian closes the ports and markets, we won't be able to continue our business either...

"So, lord, what do you mean?" The pirate merchants were confused.

I think--" Alexia revealed a meaningful expression.

"Perhaps we could contact the Prince of Yanping on Taiwan Island?"

"According to the Dian King's temper.

"I'm afraid there will be a conflict between these two soon."

"Just be patient."

"When the time comes, we will take advantage of the situation."

In fact, the conflict came much faster than Alexia had imagined.

This year can be regarded as a major turning point in the anti-corruption cause.

No one expected that the Nanmeng regime, which was on the verge of collapse and was barely supported by the Dashi Army, would be reborn from the ashes.

The Dian Army in Yunnan successively captured several southwestern provinces in less than a year and re-established the Eight Banners of Changzhou many times.

The flames that had been barely extinguished in various places due to the brutal suppression of the Qing government are now blooming everywhere like a blowout.

Zheng Jing, who was curled up on the island, was one of the people adding firewood.

After learning that the war in the southwest was recurring, Zheng Jing immediately prepared to send troops to Minyue, regardless of the recent defeat the year before.

It just so happened that Geng Jimao also raised an army to rebel against Jing at this time, and was worried that Zheng Jing would cut off his retreat.

So after some discussion, Geng Jimao ceded Quanzhou and Zhangzhou in exchange for cooperation with Zheng Jing.

Geng Jimao attacked Jiangxi and Zhejiang, and Zheng Jing was responsible for attacking Guangdong and Guangxi.

Now, here comes the awkward part.

Zheng Jing had just taken Chaozhou when Shu Yichao had already captured Guangzhou.

The Prince of Yanping looked left and right.

It seems that the territories all around are owned by "allies", and it is impossible to seize the territory of Qu Ting anymore.

So he became angry with Shu Yichao.

"snort!

"This King of Dian took advantage of the chaos while I was distracting the main force of the Shang Clan to launch a surprise attack on Guangzhou."

"This is basically just picking peaches!"

Zheng Jing said indignantly in his own palace.

Although Shang Kexi's entire family was killed by Shu Yichao, it did not prevent Zheng Jing from taking the credit for himself.

After all, he was also around Huizhou and beat up Shang Jun.

So Zheng Jing immediately wrote a letter to Shu Yichao, strongly requesting Shu Yichao to cede Huizhou to him.

Shu Yichao just felt confused.

"This NPC must be mentally ill.

"You're asking for such a huge price right now?"

"Who does he think he is?

"It's truly a retarded AI."

"If you want to cede land, you should cede it to me.

"With your help, Guangdong is missing a corner."

Naturally, Shu Yichao read Zheng Jing's letter but did not reply.

In fact, this is also a consistent characteristic of Zheng's army. Although they have never captured any provincial capital or set off any anti-Qiang wave that swept across the province, they always feel that they are very powerful.

Before the two sides could resolve the territorial dispute, new conflicts broke out again.

This time, Zheng Jing criticized Geng Jimao and Shu Yichao at the same time.

"Huh, what do you mean, Geng?"

"I do not obey the Yongli era name, nor do I obey the Meng Emperor from afar-
