The sky in Russia is gloomy and it's about to snow heavily, but the sunshine in the Mediterranean is still bright.

The sun is so good, it makes you feel warm and warm.

"Shi Lang was chopped?" Li Xiu sat on a chair and looked at the waves on the sea.

The waves are one after another, the same color as the sky. Seagulls fly proudly in the sky, like small gliders.

"Yes, it was said that he was taken to Caishikou and stabbed with more than a thousand knives.

It took three days to be chopped into pieces, and the executioner shaved him into a skeleton."

Chen Laohu felt a chill down his spine when he talked about it. He had already known this when Shi Lang followed Zheng.

At first, Shi Lang wanted to trick himself into the trap. Fortunately, reason defeated greed at that time, otherwise it would be hard to say what would happen now.

The prince took matters into his own hands and dealt with them fiercely, leaving no one alive.

This is obviously an attempt to establish authority!

Chen Laohu doesn't want to become a tool to establish his power.

Poor Shi Lang was miserable. He clung to the rich and powerful, but ended up clinging to his own life. And he died miserably!

This guy is from Jinjiang County, Quanzhou Prefecture, where the Zheng family has the greatest influence.

Although Li Xiao has ruled the world for many years, foreign wars have continued continuously.

As a price for supporting Li Xiao, the Zheng family is actually a special presence on the coast of Fujian and Guangdong.

When Li Xiu married Zheng, it was actually a political marriage.

Among the Li brothers, the one who is most similar to Li Xiao is actually the second master.

They are all pure soldiers and spend much more time in the military camp than at home.

For so many years, Li Xiu didn't even have a concubine.

Chen Laohu was confused and didn't understand what Zheng was doing.

The children in the family are all sensible, and their academic performance is among the best in the capital.

Li Xiu doesn’t have so many bad things!

Money is something that cannot be spent no matter how much you ask for.

"What a pity!

If Shi Lang really concentrates on the team, he may not become a famous general.

This end is really too miserable!" Li Xiu felt a little lonely.

Shi Lang is still very good at naval warfare. He once served as a destroyer captain, and he is not bad at management or combat.

Li Xiu originally wanted to promote Shi Lang, but he didn't expect that he would be chopped alive in the capital.

"You know a lot of people in the capital. Find someone to sell my mansion.

Exchange some money and plug up the hole made by Zheng.

The loan was 28 million, and the total amount plus other money exceeded 50 million.

How courageous!

Fifty million is enough to buy two battleships.

How could she have such courage?"

Li Xiu shook his head helplessly. He didn't understand why Zheng was so greedy.

Smuggling tens of thousands of tons of refined oil at one time!

Doesn't she know how much impact this will have on the Eastern Front battlefield?

"Second Master!

The hole is so big that it will be useless to fill it in your house in the capital." Chen Laohu was helpless.

Obviously, this second master stayed in the military camp for too long.

It’s quite a bit unworldly!

"Isn't it said that every inch of land in the capital is already at a premium? Land prices are rising rapidly?"

"My commander, there is a hole of fifty million silver dollars. Even a rolling whale doesn't have that much money!"

Chen Laohu felt like crying but had no tears!

"That……!

Why did you borrow so much money?" Li Xiu had no choice. He basically didn't care about family affairs. He was a standard hands-off shopkeeper!

A person who has not made money in twenty years is suddenly asked to make money. It is obvious that his head has not turned around yet!

"Second Master!

Europeans are crazy. Refined oil shipped to France can be directly exchanged for gold.

The profits here are so high. Turning over 50 million silver dollars of refined oil four or five times is like playing.

So greedy!

However, don't worry.

I heard that the prince ordered people to transport oil to Australia!

There are many mines there, and naturally there are also many machines.

They need a lot of refined oil!

But now that there is a war, the supply of refined oil is very tight. Oil prices are very high over there!

You can't make four or five times the profit, but you can still make double the profit.

Don’t worry about the principal.”

"real?"

Li Xiu's eyes widened and he looked at Chen Laohu behind him.

"Second Master! How dare I lie to you about such a big thing? It's true, it's more true than pearls."

"That's good, that's good!" Li Xiu nodded.

"Second Master, I think something needs to be done at this time." Chen Laohu saw that Li Xiu looked better and immediately rolled his eyes and suggested.

"What's going on?" Li Xiu looked at Chen Laohu in confusion.

"What about Corsica?"

"Corsica landing battle? How can this be done? The troops drawn from the Middle East have not yet arrived.

It will take at least another month.

Corsica is no better than Sicily, which is the hometown of Napoleon.

Although the French army retreated, they recruited many mercenaries, most of whom were North African Moroccans.

There are also some black people from Africa who are called the Foreign Legion.

The information brought by the Italians said that the Foreign Legion now numbered a hundred thousand.

If we land rashly, the casualties will be huge. Moreover, the landing may not be successful."

Li Xiu didn't understand why Chen Laohu was thinking of launching a landing in Corsica at this time.

"My second master, we can't afford to wait any longer.

Firstly, the commander-in-chief is in a tight situation on the Eastern Front, and secondly, because of his wife's matter, public opinion in the country is agitated.

Now, we need to use our victory in landing on Corsica to impact domestic public opinion.

In addition, it also reduces some of the burden on the commanders on the eastern front.

At least, it will allow the French to transport less combat supplies and soldiers to the Eastern Front."

"Containing the French is an established strategy.

But domestic public opinion... I guess most people in Ming Dynasty don't know where Corsica is.

Even if it is defeated, do you think the Chinese people will care?"

Li Xiu was a little confused as to what Chen Laohu meant by domestic public opinion.

"My second master, how can you be so smart all your life and so confused all the time?

No one knows about Corsica, but if you say it is the hometown of French Emperor Napoleon, wouldn’t people in this country know about it?

Think about it, the people in China are very ignorant. Not many of them have been to the Mediterranean!

Those who knew knew that Corsica was just an island, but those who didn’t thought it was a major French city.

When those domestic newspaper reporters knew this news, why did they still brag about it?

A big victory is enough to wash away the gossip about Madam. In the end, few people will remember it.
