Chapter 1013 Behind the World Affairs

Bolin Bang Old Port in a battle, the Ming army killed more than 5,000 pirates, captured more than 5,000 people, few escapees, burned ten enemy ships, seriously damaged many ships, the rest were all captured, Chen Zuyi fled in panic, was captured alive by the Ming cavalry, and was brought back with a fishing net. Templars,

In the afternoon of the same day, Shi Jinqing, who was stationed in Nangang, led a fleet to surrender to Chengcheng, and all the Chen Zuyi's henchmen on the ten ships that escaped from the old port were captured by Shi Jinqing, and their leaders were all tied up.

Zheng He ordered Chen Zuyi's confidants to be beheaded, leaving Chen Zuyi alone, imprisoned on a big ship, waiting for the future to be released and returned to China, and the emperor punished him.

Because Shi Jinqing exposed Chen Zuyi's treacherous scheme, Zheng He appointed him as the "Propaganda Envoy of the Old Port of the Ming Dynasty" to preside over the affairs of the old Port. The reason why a code was added to his official position was because the appointment of officials of such a rank had to be appointed by His Majesty the Emperor himself, and the name of the Bolin State was changed to Jiugang, so as to declare that it belonged to the Ming Dynasty and not an independent country.

Shi Jinqing was overjoyed, he knew very well that the so-called waiting for the Ming Emperor to appoint was just a formality, and now he has done this although he is not the king, but he is really the same as the Ming Emperor's consolation envoy, he is destined to be the prince of the Ming Dynasty overseas, and His Majesty the Emperor will not easily change the appointment.

Shi Jinqing was born as a scholar, and the orthodoxy in his heart is still very heavy, and now he has suddenly become a prince of the heavenly kingdom from a pirate, and he has a kind of joy in his heart that has finally achieved a positive result, and he is a dead surrender to the Ming Dynasty.

Zheng He also summoned Shi Jinqing and his leaders and the tribal leaders of the local natives, and announced to them the charges of Chen Zuyi, as well as the reason for changing the name of the Bolin State to Jiugang and subordinate to the Ming Dynasty.

The so-called country and king of this place are not comparable to the kingdom of Annam, which has absorbed a large amount of Central Plains culture from the Qin and Han dynasties and has formed a small feudal court. Therefore, its ruling system is very loose, and the indigenous mountain tribes have no concept of a state at all.

If this were not the case, Chen Zuyi would not have easily replaced Mana Zhe Wuli as the king of the country, and no one in the country would oppose him. Therefore, for Zheng He's appointment and arrangement, these natives, mountain people and fishermen only obeyed orders and did not object to it. Whether the big leader is called the king or the consolation envoy, for them, there is no difference, and they can climb to the Ming Dynasty as the general backstage, but they are a little complacent.

Later, Zheng He, on behalf of the Great Tomorrow, read to them the edict of the Yongle Emperor to the overseas refugees: "The good people of Erben are either trapped in food and clothing, or suffer from the abuse of officials, so they have to flee to the islands and loot to survive. I think of life and death, people's sympathy, the emperor's body is heavenly, and the people are like children. Therefore, those who have received it are guilty of their crimes. As far as I go to Yu'er and so on, I have given amnesty to the world, and I can return to my original business immediately, live in peace and happiness, and share the peace ......"

This edict was not drafted by Zheng He, but a holy decree issued by the Yongle Emperor before his departure for many remnants of the Central Plains in Nanyang, not to mention those who immigrated to Nanyang during the Tang and Song dynasties, but there are still many immigrants, who are several losers who fought with Zhu Yuanzhang in the late Yuan Dynasty and early Ming Dynasty who escaped from the Central Plains, and there are fugitives like Shi Jinqing who were forced to steal from the Central Plains because of food and clothing, or who committed crimes and escaped from the Central Plains.

Zhu Di gave them this holy decree, forgave them all their previous sins, and those who were willing to return to the country could go back with confidence, and if there were those who had taken root in Nanyang and did not want to return to China, the court would naturally not force them.

After the announcement of this holy decree, together with the official document exposing Chen Zuyi's crimes, the clerk's office transcribed many copies, and Shi Jinqing sent someone to convey it to Nicopa, Palawan, Manila, Java, Borneo and other island countries on his behalf.

This move is to publicize Chen Zuyi's crimes, so as not to speculate in vain among countries; One is to tell the Chinese immigrants in the islands to make their own choices; One is to kill chickens and monkeys and warn those with bad intentions, which can be described as killing three birds with one stone.

※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※

When Zheng He was busy on the island to pacify the military and civilians, arrange government affairs, dispose of prisoners, and assist several large timber merchants to settle down here, Xia Xun was not idle. , He did not go ashore, he stayed on the Xu Hu ship, at this time he used it as a living room cabin, Xia Xun sat on the chair, crossed Erlang's legs, leisurely drank tea, and glanced at Fei Yinglun in front of him.

Fei Yinglun completely lost the fierceness of his axe and killing, he stood there with a sad face and a helpless face. Fei Yinglun was injured, one of his eyes was injured, and he wore a black blindfold, which was more like the image of a pirate in Xia Xun's mind, but in the face of Xia Xun's inquiry, he insisted that he was a kind navigator and a responsible businessman who was bent on paying off his debts.

Xu Hu listened impatiently and said: "***, this guy toasts and doesn't eat and drink, Guogong handed him over to me, I will rectify it, I don't believe him and he won't move!" ”

Because Fei Yinglun almost didn't know Chinese at all, and Xu Hu's Wu dialect was strong, he was not afraid that he would understand his address to Xia Xun.

Xia Xun waved his hand with a smile, looked directly at Fei Yinglun, and suddenly asked, "Do you dare to swear to your god that you didn't lie?" ”

The interpreter repeated it in Arabic, and without hesitation, Fei Yinglun covered his heart with his hands and solemnly swore an oath.

Xia Xun frowned slightly, and suddenly remembered one more thing, this goods are probably from Venice, he doesn't need to hide it at this point, but his change of faith, is it a sincere conversion, or an expedient measure? Xia Xun narrowed his eyes slightly, and said to the interpreter: "You ask him again, this time don't translate God as Allah, as God!" ”

Xia Xun didn't know what language the Venetians used, and he couldn't speak it if he knew it, but he knew English, and he believed that even if Fei Yinglun was not very proficient in English, with his knowledge of drifting on the sea and traveling around the world, he must know what God meant.

The interpreter really didn't know that God in Chinese could be translated into this pronunciation, and he didn't know which country's god this pronunciation was, so he just said it again to Fei Yinglun according to Xia Xun's instructions, and Fei Yinglun's face changed, and he really hesitated and didn't dare to answer. He's a pirate, he doesn't mind lying, but if he wants to lie in God's name, he doesn't dare.

A person who fears ghosts and gods always has a bottom in his heart that he dare not touch.

Xia Xun looked directly at him, and suddenly said to the translator: "You tell him again, if he is a pirate, I have a lot of use." If he says he is a merchant, I will tie him to an anchor and throw him into the sea to make a deal of business with the Neptune! ”

Fei Yinglun listened to the words relayed by the interpreter, his face was cloudy, and he did not answer for a long time.

Xia Xun suddenly smiled again, and said with a slightly sly look: "Mr. Fei Yinglun, you should know that many people who go to sea in the name of businessmen actually have another identity, they can do business, but when they encounter fat, they don't mind doing a vote, do you know what I mean?" ”

Fei Yinglun listened to the interpreter's words, one eye suddenly let out a light, and his snort was a little heavy: "Mr. Xia, you ...... You mean...... You're ...... too."

Xia Xun nodded gently: "Yes, now...... Can you speak up to me? ”

Fei Yinglun laughed.

In this era, at least half of the merchants in the South China Sea have a pirate background, and more than half of the Western Ocean, almost 100% are half-merchants and half-thieves, and even many dukes and earls also dress up as pirates to lead the knights out to sea to fish for deviations.

Because of this, Fei Yinglun did not doubt Xia Xun's words at all, he had nothing now, what idea could Xia Xun have against him, the only thing he could use was the knowledge and knowledge he had accumulated across the seven seas, so Fei Yinglun readily admitted it.

As if he had met a confidant and friend who smelled like, he said to Xia Xun eagerly: "I admit that, as Mr. Xia said, I am a pirate. Does Mr. Xia need my help? ”

Xia Xun smiled and didn't answer, turned his head to the interpreter and said, "Change the room for Mr. Fei Yinglun and transfer it to the second floor, and in addition, the meal standard will be raised by two levels." ”

At the back of the living room was a small room, which was originally used for a nap between visitors, but now the door was locked, the portholes were closed, and the room was dimly lit, and a person was locked inside. The man was crawling on the couch, his ears pressed to the bulkhead listening to the faint sound of speech coming from in front of him, and in the dim light, his body was slender and slender, and his limbs were slender and curved.

There was no sound in the cabin, and the person who was eavesdropping on his stomach like a puppy sat down, leaned his back against the bulkhead, grabbed the pillow and smashed it against the opposite bulkhead, pouted, and said indignantly: "Shut me up!" Words don't count! ”

In the living room, Xia Xun was the only one left, quietly.

At some point, a map was spread out on the table, which Zheng He had slowed down when he went to the Western Ocean last time, and the sea area, geography, and country names on it were drawn in great detail.

Xia Xun's finger tapped at the location of the old port, and then stroked down in turn: Alu, Sumatra, and Nanwuli. From Nam Vuli, cross the Bay of Bengal in the Indian Ocean to Mount Ceylon. Bypassing the Indian Peninsula from Ceylon, you will reach Little Gülen, Kochi, and Guri (present-day Calicut, located at the southwestern tip of the Indian Peninsula) in India.

This is the end point of Zheng He's fleet last time, and it is there that Zhu Yunwen's news appeared and disappeared. Therefore, the last end will be this ocean, and they still have a long, long way to go. And the road to be taken is still blank on the map, waiting for them to explore and discover.

Xia Xun muttered: "There is still a long way to go!" Emperor Jianwen, were you really hidden so far away by Lord Luo? Lord Luo hid you, one is the righteousness of the monarch and the minister, and the other can make the Jinyi Guard prosperous for a long time. Ten years after his death, he can still affect the political situation ......, so scheming! Such a strategy! I'm not as good as him......"
