In the winter of 1687, Colonel Murong Parrot, commander of the Second Brigade of the Sixth Army of the Han Cavalry, was ordered to report on his work in Beijing. For Chinese history, this is a very small thing, so small that it is not worth mentioning. At that time, all the human beings on Earth, including Colonel Murong Yu himself, did not realize how significant his current work was for human history.

There are hundreds of people accompanying Murong Parrot into Beijing, this is a random 'mixed' team, the core position is the son of the general Ma Ying, followed by the one hundred and twenty cavalry responsible for the protection on both sides, Murong Parrot is the commander of this small force at this time, originally when they set off from Nuergan, this team together with Ma Gongzi's servants' Including the grandmother, there were no more than 150 people, and if the regular marching method was followed, this small team could have arrived in Beijing more than a month earlier than now, but their master Ma Gongzi was too young to take the swift march of Rehe, so he could only drag it all the way slowly.

At that time, such a majestic team was quite eye-catching on the official road, so people continued to join along the way, originally according to Murong Parrot's military 'character', this kind of hitchhiking behavior was absolutely not allowed, but unfortunately when the team passed through Shenyang, Zhang Shu'yu, the governor of Nuergan, entrusted him with dozens of people who went to Beijing to take the exam - this kind of thing has no room for prevarication in this era, because how many jinshi can be produced in a province is very important to the province, In addition to the issue of local interests, it is more about the sense of honor that belongs to the locality, which is similar to how many gold medals China can win in the Olympic Games in the 21st century, which is directly related to the face of Nurgan Province, and it is very unfortunate that Murong Parrot's ancestral home is Chang'chun' Kuancheng, so all the people in this place are his "hometown students", so Master Zhang Shu 'Yu' only mentioned that "the hometown fathers and elders rely on the adults to take care of them", and he can no longer spit out half a word.

Murong Parrot himself was a little disgusted by this work, at this time his mood was in a very 'excited' and at the same time very sad state, his purpose for entering Beijing this time was basically unknown except for a few people in the upper echelons of the empire, and his full 'excitement' had no place to vent. Expedition of thousands of miles, commanding thousands of Han sons to slaughter the city and destroy the country, avenging the unjustly killed people, such a feat, in addition to Ban Dingyuan, Huo Piaoyao and a few other people, who else has done it for thousands of years? ! If you think about it, you can't be strong and 'fierce' yourself.

If it is a hundred years later, some things may be interesting to think about, in fact, according to the strict theory of blood, Murong Parrot is not a Han people, according to the genealogy handed down by his ancestors, he is an out-and-out descendant of Xianbei, if you want to pursue it, I am afraid that it can also be related to the "Dayan" royal family in the former Wuhu 'chaos' China, according to the more popular saying in his hometown, after the destruction of the country, a certain prince fled to Chang' In the area of Chun' Kuancheng, so the incognito took root and spread out, becoming a local surname, but this matter basically belonged to the category of nonsense in the seventeenth century, including Murong Parrot, no one in their area knew what the "Great Yan Kingdom" was back then, and they didn't know what the "royal family" they boasted about before and after tea and dinner had done, so whether it was psychologically or physically, the Murong family is definitely 100% Han now. This kind of thing is not uncommon in China, basically the entire province north of the Yellow River has similar legends like this, in fact, people who swear that they are sure of absolutely no change their Han identity, the reason why they like to sing this kind of story generally belongs to the meaning of "Lao Tzu ancestors are also wide", and they put gold on their faces.

Colonel Murong Parrot turned out to be a hardcore subordinate of General Ma Ying, and his background was not honorable. When he rode back to his hometown on a high-headed horse triumphantly, his father and fellow villagers were all shocked, because his reputation in his hometown was really bad, and some people in the township said bad things about him, and what made him angry was that with his step by step, these irritating stories actually spread to the city of Beijing thousands of miles away, and became a joke among officials at all levels of the General Staff and the Ministry of Officials of the Han Empire.

It is said that there are two more popular jokes, one of which is about his youth, when Murong Parrot's family conditions were acceptable, his father is a very smart person, with his efforts, in addition to more than 60 acres of good land, there is also a pasture and a soju workshop, which belongs to a well-off family in the local area, and the identity of this kind of small landlord is generally embarrassing, and his father is very busy, so it is difficult to talk about a good word about Murong Parrot's family education when he was a child, So this harsh living environment naturally created a famous horse thief, in fact, Murong Parrot also read when he was a child, but unfortunately, just after reading "Hundred Family Names" and "Thousand Character Text", he thought that he had reached the level of "Zhuangyuanlang", and he was intoxicated by his arrogance, and the old gentleman in charge of education was quite serious, so he was educated on the board, and as a result, "the official 'forced' the people to rebel", and he was brutally suppressed, and was beaten and expelled from the school by Lord Murong Parrot.

After that, his father was quite angry, and after receiving the news, he immediately held a big 'stick' in his hand and tried to suppress it, but the first father-son war broke out, and the relationship between the two fell to a freezing point, and they had to separate from each other. Soon after, another incident occurred, causing Lord Murong Parrot to defect from his home and embark on the path of a horse thief. His father because the family business is running well, got the worship of another small landlord in the local area, the two sides are introduced to know the 'friend', and then the friend is really admired, decided to marry one of his 'daughter' to his father as a concubine, this news was known by Lord Murong Parrot, immediately furious, overnight from the ranch riding home, angrily scolded his father for forgetting his righteousness, treating his mother badly, the two sides fought, Lord Murong Parrot was angry, '' the knife up, on the spot to his aunt - That is, the father's concubine was cut in two.

This is the first story, and the second story is about his career as a horse thief. When he committed a murder, he was naturally wanted by the local government, so he was in exile, at this time he encountered a robbery by chance, when General Ma Ying was leading a group of brothers to beg for a living, and the robber was an elderly visitor - this kind of thing is very common in the Northeast, in fact, Ma Ying's behavior at that time was not a very vicious one, because at that time the visitor and the horse thief belonged to a half-protection and half-robbery relationship, Ma Ying's behavior at that time was not so much a robbery, but rather a "protection fee", However, the young and vigorous Lord Murong Parrot did not know the rules of this famous green forest, and immediately 'stood up' and angrily reprimanded General Ma Ying's nonsense, in fact, the scene of this robbery was not tense, and it was even harmonious, and the robbed visitors were willing to take out a sum of money to pay the security fee, and suddenly saw Lord Murong Parrot jump out and was startled, and immediately begged him not to make trouble, so as not to anger General Ma Ying and implicate himself.

Lord Murong Parrot, who was full of enthusiasm and drew a knife to help, was annoyed and angry, thinking that this visitor really didn't give himself face, so he immediately 'draws' a knife and compared it to the visitor's head, claiming that if he refuses his kindness, he will be cut off immediately, of course, in this case, the visitor will definitely have no choice, so the colonel of the cavalry of the Han Empire and the lieutenant general of the army in the future fought, and in the end, it was General Ma Ying who was superior in skill and convinced the unruly Murong Parrot.

To be fair, Murong Parrot's temper is really not suitable for 'mixing' on the scene, this time Lin Feng's expeditionary corps organized within the Han army is not favored, and everyone knows that this so-called "expeditionary corps" is actually an alternative death squad, with few chances of survival, so most people are afraid to avoid it, but Colonel Murong Parrot is one of the very few volunteers.

The reason why Colonel Murong Parrot volunteered to participate in the expeditionary corps started from last year's Shanxi Battle. In that tragic war, the Sixth Cavalry Army was responsible for chasing down the Khan Tent Xue Legion of the Western 'Meng' Guzungar, and Murong Parrot commanded the 2,000 iron cavalry of the 2nd Brigade as the vanguard of the army. The ambush of the Meng's ancient army, when it fell into a bitter battle, although in the end General Ma Ying led the main force to arrive in time to annihilate the enemy, but Murong Parrot's subordinates have suffered more than half of the casualties, and only more than 600 people survived in the end of two thousand Liaodong children, this incident has caused a very adverse impact on Murong Parrot's reputation, many people in the Sixth Cavalry Army, including his subordinates, think that Murong Parrot is too arrogant, resulting in the death of his siblings in vain, for a time the gossip is full of wind and rain, Murong Parrot is usually hot-tempered and self-esteem, after hearing this rumor, he is angry and guilty, and immediately had a serious illness, and he only felt disheartened when he recovered, and then suddenly heard that the army gradually expeditionary corps, and signed up without hesitation.

After some selection, he finally became the commander of this expeditionary corps with his deep qualifications and rich combat experience. According to the secret arrangement of the General Staff Headquarters, since the beginning of last summer, he has led his troops to conduct arduous training in Qinhuangdao, Dalian, and other ports, and then boarded a ship to 'sail' and conduct 'sex' training in the Bohai Bay; until now, nearly 3,000 officers and men who should be selected have been repeatedly eliminated, and only more than 1,800 people remain. It is well-trained and well-trained, and it is definitely an out-and-out 'elite' division.

He came to Beijing this time because King Xiang Han made the last request, and now the entire army is all ready, and he will set off as soon as the ice melts.

After receiving Zhou Peigong's report, Lin Feng met him in the side hall that night.

It was the first time that Colonel Murong was summoned by Lin Feng alone, as a middle-level officer, this was a rare honor, although he had always been unruly on weekdays, but at this time, it was inevitable that he was a little nervous.

Lin Feng was very impressed by Murong Parrot, in the end in the Han army system, the status of the Sixth Cavalry Army is indeed extraordinary, and Murong Parrot himself is also a famous general, and he is also quite special, in fact, this is not surprising, but most of the people who have heard Murong Parrot's story have this feeling.

Murong Parrot was tall and thin, with dark skin, a very long face, uneven cheeks, and many scars, which looked very vicious. Seeing Lin Feng at this time, he was a little dazed, neither kneeling down to salute, nor opening his mouth to praise.

"Murong Parrot?!" Lin Feng smiled, he was not very strange, people in this era seemed to be very afraid of imperial power, and after a few years of work, he had seen a lot of people who were at a loss when he met them.

"Yes...... It's ......" Hearing Lin Feng speak, Murong Parrot seemed to suddenly realize, a horse's face turned red, and he saluted, "Minister, Murong Parrot, the town guard of Qinhuangdao, meet the lord!" - Han Wang Chitose! ……”

"Good, good! - Please get up, please get up. Lin Feng nodded, stretched out his hand and pointed to the seat next to him, "You sit down and talk." ”

"Yes, thank you for your grace!"

"It's been cold and snowy all the way, and Qing has really worked hard!"

"Lord Miaozan, the ministers should be divided!" Murong Parrot gradually calmed down and said to Lin Feng, "This time, the minister received an order from Zhou Sima of the General Staff, and he has come to report the military affairs of Qinhuangdao to the lord!" ”

"Well, I know that!" Lin Feng waved his hand, and the eunuch standing on the side immediately offered tea, "Don't worry, Qing said slowly-come, this is authentic Hangzhou tea, this time it is through Caoyun, Anhui Wang Dahai Pegasus came to serve, ordinary people can't drink it, Qing taste it!" ”

"Thank you, lord!" Murong Parrot glanced at Lin Feng with excitement, and hurriedly drank tea, and the eunuch next to him couldn't help but laugh out loud when he saw him drinking so much. Murong Parrot looked at him in amazement, not knowing why.

Lin Feng suddenly turned his head and looked at the eunuch coldly, "Funny?!" ”

The eunuch's face was pale, his whole body trembled like chaff, and he kowtowed again and again, "Slave...... Slave dishonorability...... Please, the king, spare ......."

"You know who you're laughing at?!" Lin Feng pointed at Murong Parrot and said, "This is the colonel of the empire, the important minister of the country, and the widows are very respectful, a eunuch like you, he casually stretched out a finger and crushed him to death, you actually dare to make fun of him?!" He glanced at Li Ergou and pouted, and the two warriors immediately stepped forward and dragged the eunuch out.

Turning his head to look at Murong Parrot, he said, "See, those ministers insisted that I keep the eunuchs, and I don't know what they were thinking in their heads?" He shook his head and chuckled, "These people have forgotten the pain of their scars, for fear that our big man will not be able to produce Wei Zhongxian!" ”

Murong Yu smiled bitterly and was speechless.

"Where did you just go?! - Oh, by the way, the expeditionary force is ready?! ”

"Yes, return to the lord, according to the order of the general staff ya' 'gate', our Qinhuangdao is all ready," Speaking of business, Murong Yu immediately straightened his body and said solemnly, "Lord Qiqi, the people and horses of the headquarters have nine Hongyi galleons, carrying 184 cannons, 1,200 flintlock muskets, 400 guns, rockets, and fuel spray canisters, and the officers and soldiers were eliminated after August training, and 1,894 people were killed, including 92 Portuguese, 43 Nanyang natives, 11 Dutch, and 115 black slave soldiers. Most of them are medical officers, Lang Zhong and the helmsman, this generation of outsiders have been loyal to my Han, most of their families moved to Liaodong, can serve the Lord to the death! ”

"Oh? Very good......" Lin Feng nodded, groaned for a long time, and suddenly asked, "Have you learned Spanish?!" ”

"Back to the lord, Lord Ohm has already arranged this matter, and the ministers and his officers and soldiers have learned a lot - don't dare to deceive the lord, if you really run into the Spaniards, I'm afraid you can only barely deal with it, if you talk deeply, it still can't!" Murong Parrot said ashamedly, "In addition, we also learned a little Dutch and Portuguese. ”

Can you barely talk?! This should be considered level 4 or above, right? It's good to have this level in eight months, and it seems that the ancients didn't understand 'sex' low. Lin Feng nodded appreciatively, "As long as you can 'mix' a few words, if you really want to talk and negotiate, you still have to let Ohm's people go, you officers should be more careful, those interpreters may not all be reliable, you have to keep an eye on one and control it firmly!" ”

"Yes!"

"How many of the remaining eight or nine people can fight on horseback?"

Murong Parrot raised his head and said, "Returning to the lord, most of the soldiers selected by the ministers are from cavalry, everyone can march and fight on horseback, among them, there are 800 people who are 'fine' in riding, and they can shoot three stone bows on horseback, and the rest Although the riding 'shooting' is insufficient, they can also 'shoot' muskets, in addition, we also invited the Mazhuang Artillery Department to train the artillery, and trained four hundred gunners," he glanced at Lin Feng and frowned, "But those foreign soldiers are a little worse, most of them can only 'operate' the sails, except for a few Portuguese and Dutch, few can ride horses." ”

"Enough!" Lin Feng nodded, and said to Murong Parrot, "Murong Aiqing, do you know that your 1,800 people are carefully selected from hundreds of thousands of Han troops, and each of them is the backbone of our Han Dynasty," he pointed to Murong Parrot's nose and solemnly admonished, "You have to understand that this expeditionary force of yours has 'spent' nearly two million taels of silver on the imperial court, which can withstand the military expenses of two armies. Don't miss the big things of the court! ”

Murong Parrot immediately knelt down and kowtowed, "The minister must be cautious and cautious, and live up to the high expectations of the lord!" ”

Lin Feng stood up, personally helped him up, and patted him on the shoulder, "Get up, let's go for a walk in the garden." ”

Murong Parrot was shocked in his heart and hurriedly followed behind Lin Feng. Outside the house, the sky was cold and moving, the earth was white, and a foot-long ice ridge hung down from the eaves, and the north wind blew the face, like a blunt knife cutting 'meat', raw and painful. Lin Feng strode ahead, Murong Parrot was half a position behind, and dozens of guards warriors were left and right, guarding everywhere in the 'Flower' Garden.

The garden has long since withered away, but the two glamour 'flowers' in the corner of the courtyard are full of buds and 'desires', Lin Feng squinted his eyes and looked up at the sky, at this moment, the sky is dusk, the sky is 'color' and 'cloudy' haze, and the goose 'feathers' are full of snow, and they can't help but fall down, falling all over their faces, he can't help but shrink his hand, cage it to his mouth and smile while sighing, "Murong Parrot, do you know, you are going, the mountains are thousands of miles, the sea is vast, I'm afraid you will never come back!" ”

Murong Parrot's face was heavy, and he nodded slowly, his voice was extremely dry, "Return to the lord, the minister knows." ”

"Well, do you know why I 'spend' so many silver taels and so many loyal soldiers to go on an expedition to a foreign land?!"

"The minister knows that we want to avenge the tens of thousands of people in Luzon, and let the barbarians know that those who offend my Han will be !!punished even if they are far away." Murong Parrot clenched his fists, his expression 'excited'.

"Well, this is a ......" To Murong Yu's surprise, Lin Feng didn't immediately encourage appreciation, he shook his head and smiled, "Murong Aiqing, your idea is very good, but it's not all right-do you know why?!" ”

"The minister is blunt, please give the lord advice!"

"How so?! ......" Lin Feng thought for a moment and turned to look at Murong Parrot, "Your family used to have a small business, right?" ”

Murong Parrot's face was full of surprise, he didn't know why the lord said this matter at this time, could it have anything to do with the war?!" If you go back to the lord, the minister's house is brewing soju! ”

"Yes, then I'll tell you that-" Lin Feng pointed to the north, "Our Great Han Kingdom is like a big business, and I, the King of Han, are like the shopkeeper of this business, and you, Murong Parrot, are the buddies of this business...... Do you understand that?! ”

"Returning to the lord, the minister...... The minister ...... foolishly, "Murong Parrot is indeed confused at this time.

"Well, I'll give you an example, if you look at the Great Qing Kingdom in front of us, let's talk about him," Speaking of this, Lin Feng smiled, "The Manchurian Eight Banners led by Nurhachi and Huang Taiji is actually a big business, and all the Manchurians are shareholders of this business, and the emperor of the Manchu Qing Dynasty is the shopkeeper of this business, and what are they operating?" It is the people and the land that are in business! ”

"I don't understand! ……”

Lin Feng ignored him and said to himself, "Okay, what is the capital of this Manchu business?" Their capital is the 'sex' life of the children of the Eight Banners, and Nurhachi used the 'life' of these Eight Banners to do business with the Ming Dynasty, and later made a lot of profits - this profit is the net worth of hundreds of people in Liaodong, and all the people have dividends," Lin Feng turned around with a smile, "You are also from Liaodong, I'm afraid I've heard your father talk about the past, right?" At that time, Nurhachi called himself the Khan of the Mandate of Heaven and declared that all the Han people in Liaodong were slaves of the Manchus, and they would kill and rob if they wanted - this was the dividend of the Manchu business!! ”

Murong Parrot suddenly realized, looked up at Lin Feng, and was demented for a while, not knowing how to answer.

"Later, this Manchu Qing firm was able to operate well, so it became bigger and bigger, taking advantage of the deficit of the opponent Daming firm, and it was always in Beijing City," Lin Feng laughed, patting the big 'leg', "This profit is even bigger, they announced that all the Chinese people are their slaves, with braids as a mark, and made up a south, seven, north, and sixty-three provinces, each province pays dividends on time, and the children of the Eight Banners here live in Beijing City in a good way, and sit firmly as a shareholder, as long as it is a full person, regardless of adults and children, there will be silver grain and rice on the ground, Go to the Manchu merchant on time every month to get money and grain......" Saying this, he smiled dumbly and smiled at Murong Parrot, "Murong Aiqing, do you say yes or no?!" ”

"Yes, return to the lord, the minister understands!!" Murong Parrot nodded.

"Well, it's good to get it!" Lin Feng said with a smile, "Now our Dahan firm, in fact, is the same as the Manchu firm, all the Han people are our shareholders, I am the shopkeeper of this firm, and Aiqing you are the buddies of this firm, our task is to find dividends for these shareholders wholeheartedly!" He patted Murong Parrot on the shoulder, "The Spaniards killed our Luzon people, that is, they cut the shareholders of our Dahan firm and reduced the dividends of our Dahan firm, so we have to take revenge - this is the first article." ”

"There is a second one," Lin Feng took a breath, took a snow 'flower' in his hand, quietly watched it melt in his palm, and said in the air, "Although we want revenge, we are still a business name - what is a business name?" If you don't get up early, although tens of thousands of people in Luzon died a pity, but in the end, even if we avenge them, they won't be able to survive - Murong Aiqing, think about it, this expeditionary army of yours is worth one of our field armies, and the military expenditure alone is millions of taels of silver, so just to go to thousands of miles to die for the sake of a light sentence of 'revenge', isn't it too much of a loss?! ”

Murong Parrot opened his mouth wide, at this time, he was very confused in his heart, and he didn't know what Lin Feng meant by saying this.

"Nanyang is close to China, the four seasons 'flower' bloom, sow a seed, you can wait for the harvest without hard work, it is really a first-class rich place in the world, our big man is bound to win," Lin Feng clenched his palm, and squeezed the melted ice water tightly in his palm, feeling the biting coldness, "Murong Aiqing, the widow told you that our big Han has opened overseas trade in recent years, although there are only a few small ports, but there can be millions of taels of silver every year, and as far as the spies know, Nanyang is a place that every year from the euro bar, big food, There are tens of millions of taels of gold and silver circulating in the Americas, and the price of tea sold from China is one or five cents per catty of silver on board in Guangzhou, and it is worth three or four taels of gold to Europa; The high-grade silk was loaded from Fuzhou for six taels of silver per horse, and it was worth tens of taels ......of gold when it arrived in Europa," he stared at Murong Parrot tightly, "Do you understand what the widow means?!" ”

"Returning to the lord, the minister...... Understand, "Murong Parrot is sweating profusely, and his mouth is indeed honest" But the minister doesn't understand what this has to do with the expedition to Spain? He secretly glanced at Lin Feng, "If you want to take Nanyang, let's fight Nanyang, Spain itself is thousands of miles away, ......."

"Decades ago, the Ming minister Zheng Chenggong did this, he defeated the Dutch that day, and he magnanimously let go of the captives, but how effective was it? Ou Yi saw my Chinese people, don't you want to kill and rob, and rob if you want to?!" Lin Feng shook his head, "Nanyang is like the border county town of Nuergan to my big man, and it doesn't hurt at all to fight a little fight here, let's beat him, and beat their officers and soldiers stationed in Nanyang to call their father and mother, they don't know at all in China - even if they know, I'm afraid they won't care, but they will continue to fight against us, so once we want to fight, we will fight it all over the field, and the vitality of the whole country will be greatly damaged, and if we fight, we will at least achieve the effect of deterrence for tens of hundreds of years!" ”

"Got it!" Murong Parrot suddenly realized, "As long as Spain is defeated, Nanyang will be decided!" ”

"No, you don't know, Nanyang is a piece of 'fat' and 'meat', it's not just our Han business that is staring at it, in addition to Spain, there are also many foreign barbarians such as the Netherlands, England, Portugal, etc., and Spain is just one of the gangs, and it is the one with the inferior strength!" Lin Feng smiled slightly, "Our Huaxia has been dragged by the 'female' real people over the years, and we don't have the strength to take care of that side, and now in that part of Nanyang, there is no place for our big man at all, if you enter rashly, you will definitely attack it for the Ouyi group, so it is very important to choose a decent way to enter the market!" ”

Murong Parrot knew in his heart that this truth was not difficult to understand, just like he used to 'mix' in the green forest, there were several mountains in a place, and everyone usually stared at each other to rob business, but if they were not very sure, they would not start a war casually, but if there was a new gang of horse thieves who came to grab the territory, they would definitely be angry, no matter whether there was a grudge or not on weekdays, everyone would join forces to maintain the "rules on the road".

"If the Han wants to intervene in the South Seas, there must first be an upright and irrefutable reason, at least morally speaking, no one can come out and provoke thorns; secondly, it must be thunderous, let everyone know the determination and prestige of the big man, and dare not stand up for the unlucky man of Spain, otherwise you have to consider the consequences; Third, this way of admission must make all Chinese people hate the same enemy, and the bigger the trouble, the better, and it is best to provoke some racial contradictions or ethnic disputes, so that all the wall grass has no choice and has to stand on the side of our Han people......"

Murong Parrot frowned and said, "The lord forgives the sins, the first two ministers can understand it, but this third article is a bit 'confused', and please advise the lord!" ”

"Aiqing is a native of Liaodong, so naturally he doesn't know about Nanyang, but the widow is a Fujianese, and he understands the situation over there," Lin Feng said with a smile, "Aiqing doesn't know, in fact, our Han people have a huge power in Nanyang, since the Song Dynasty, the Chinese people have been drifting across the sea, going to the Nanyang Islands to cultivate and trade, for hundreds of years, the branches and leaves have multiplied and grown, no less than hundreds of thousands of people, but ......" his face sank, and he said astringently, "But they are separated from each other, fighting openly and secretly, like a plate of scattered sand, It is really hateful to be like those ignorant natives, to be divided and ruled by a handful of Europeans, and not to be able to stand on their own! ”

"So we Han must do it vigorously, this expedition to Europe is to let all the Han people in Nanyang know that the Han Kingdom is their backing - from now on, whether it is Spain, the Netherlands, or England, whoever insults the people of the Han Dynasty, who exploits the people of the Han Dynasty, and who blocks the business of the people of the Han Dynasty, then they will not be able to get along with the Han Empire, and the imperial court will have exhausted its national strength, and it will fight to the death with him!!"

Murong Parrot was secretly frightened and said in amazement, "But...... But can those Nanyang Han people listen to us?! ”

"Of course you will listen - why not?!" Lin Feng smiled dumbly, "Our big men don't ask them to collect taxes, and second, we don't want them to be errands, and send them to the 'door' to be thugs for no reason, why don't they listen?!" He smiled, "But we must win, we must make a big fuss, we must 'make' to shock Europe, and we must make all Europeans frightened, if we do not achieve this effect, then they may not cooperate with us!" ”

"That'...... If I do this, won't my big man still lose money...... Don't you think it's any good?! ”

"The major national policy, can not argue about small profits, the long-term vision - our big Han to obtain the South Seas, score a few steps, the first is to expedition to Europe, shock Europe - the purpose of this is to tell all Europeans that China is not an 'indigenous people', but a first-class power today, stronger than all of Europe combined, the territory of Nanyang, the Chinese must take a share, and it is the largest one, if anyone does not agree, the widow will take his life;"

"The second step is to fight with Ouyi, you go to Europe on an expedition of thousands of miles, whether it is successful or not, the widow will appoint a general to capture Luzon, if you succeed in slaughtering the city, then Europe will be shocked, so there will be two consequences, one is that Ouyi except Spain, other foreign countries will make peace with my Han and acquiesce in the interests of my Han, and the other is to organize European coalition forces, such as 'Crusaders' and other bandits, and start a war with my Han - Aiqing, let me tell you, the widow is ready to raise tens of millions of silver, and make every effort to build the Han Navy, There is no advance or retreat in this battle, even if you can't unify China, you must defeat Ouyi and take Nanyang!! ”

"The third step, the Han and Ou Yi are fighting, I am close to him, and the enemy army comes from all countries, deceitful and unpredictable with each other, it must be a group of rabble, the widow estimates that the victory is seventy percent, and it can be a tie at the worst, so that we will negotiate with Ou Yi and sign a peace treaty, and the people of all countries will 'communicate' with each other on an equal footing, and they must not be bullied-" Speaking of this, Lin Feng laughed, "As long as this is the case, the goal of our Han will be achieved, even if we do not win on the battlefield, we will win at the negotiating table!" ”

Murong Parrot was surprised and said, "Lord, how do you say this?!" ”

"My Han has hundreds of thousands of people in Nanyang, and the major families have been running businesses for tens and hundreds of years, which have long been deeply rooted, and he has only been here for a hundred years, and the people and soldiers together are not a fraction of our Han people, as long as he recognizes our status as a great power, recognizes the rights and interests of my Han people, and recognizes the right of protection of my Han Empire to the Han people, so that it will not take three or five years, we will do business and kill them!!"

Murong Parrot said sincerely, "The lord's strategy is far-reaching, and the ministers admire it very much!" ”

Lin Feng waved his hand, "As long as we Han stand firm, hundreds of thousands of Han people in Nanyang will 'straighten' their waists, those who have business are Han merchants, and those who have no business are Han 'Lang' people, if anyone provokes them, let's use cannons to speak," he said with a smile, "And the widow heard that there are many gangs over there, so let's persuade them to change their majestic names, such as the 'Black Dragon Society', and stand up for the people of the Han Dynasty - whoever bullies us and beats him; Who do we bully, still beat him, so decades of operation, Nanyang is like Guangdong, Fujian, is our Han province, we expand the territory, the achievement of the eternal merit is not easy, will be remembered for future generations!! ”

Murong Parrot bowed and arched his hand, "The minister is willing to serve the Lord and serve the dogs and horses!" Accomplish this eternal achievement! ”

Lin Feng took his hand, "Aiqing, you have to understand, as long as we occupy Nanyang, we will have an extra income of 10 million taels of silver every year, and an increase in the income of thousands of grains, if this matter is successful, the widow will be exempted from the land endowment of the Chinese people, and let all the Chinese share the dividends, from now on, all the Chinese will never be displaced, there will be no more harsh taxes and miscellaneous taxes, everyone will live and work in peace and contentment, and be rich and ......healthy everywhere" Saying this, his eyes suddenly turned red, and he held Murong Parrot's hand tightly, and said movingly, "Aiqing, It is not lonely and cruel for the widow to exchange the 'life' of your 1,800 heroes for tens of millions of Chinese jobs...... It's really ...... It's really a last resort......"

Looking at Lin Feng's sincere and guilty face, Murong Parrot only felt his blood surging for a while, and suddenly broke free of Lin Feng's hand, and threw himself on the snow, kowtowed again and again, and said excitedly, "Lord, if there is no lord in this world, the minister will be a horse thief if he dies, and he will drink and eat all his life, and it is a lifetime of luck for the minister to be able to take on this important responsibility today......" He widened his eyes and said loudly, "I will say your words to the brothers word for word, please rest assured, even if our brothers fight to pieces, Bury the soil in another country, and also snatch back the rice bowl of our Chinese!! ……”

Lin Feng's face was full of sadness, he stretched out his hand to help him up, and said movingly, "Aiqing is really brave - the widow will give you an edict, from today on, Murong Parrot will be promoted to the rank of brigadier general, and he will command the Han Expeditionary Legion, and when the port is thawed, he will immediately set off to crusade against the Spanish barbarians!" ”

He held Murong Parrot's hand tightly, "You can rest assured about the affairs of your family, this trip to Europe is far away, difficult and difficult, you must be cautious in everything, be careful in everything!" ”
