Guo Zhiyuan couldn't understand Spanish, so he remembered that there was a general matter on his ship, the general surnamed Liu was really scared in the previous sea attack battle, and even half of the three souls and seven spirits were scared off, and when he was found by the regimental training villagers, he was hiding in the bottom cargo hold and shivering, Guo Zhiyuan didn't bother to take care of him, and he never saw him again since he was carried to the Dafu ship, which would remember him, and quickly asked Zhang Cheng to find this Liu Tongshi.

This Liu Tongshi has been resting in the cabin for more than half a month, but his face is still a little pale, and he is angry again when he sees Guo Zhiyuan, Guo Zhiyuan has ignored him for most of the month and left him aside, and now he is finally going to use him, and he still has to put up a shelf?

Guo Zhiyuan didn't have the time to wait for this Liu Tongshi to stink, so he hurriedly beckoned: "Liu Tongshi, you came just in time, you tell this bearded man that this official is a diplomatic envoy sent by His Majesty the Ming Emperor, and he came to negotiate the killing of our dynasty's businessmen in Luzon......"

That Liu Tongshi still wanted to put up a shelf, but Zhang Cheng behind him pushed him a little impatiently, and then looked at the regimental training township soldiers who were standing straight on both sides with a murderous aura, then Liu Tongshi instantly softened, these people are murderous without blinking, aren't they looking for death in front of this gang of people? And he came this time to be specially ordered by Shen Yizhong to interfere with the negotiations between Guo Zhiyuan and the Spaniards, he had dealt with the Spaniards before, and knew that these Spaniards were very arrogant, if he deliberately put on a tough attitude in front of the Spaniards for Guo Zhiyuan, he would definitely anger these Spaniards, so wouldn't he be able to mess up Guo Zhiyuan's errand?

Thinking of this, Liu Tongshi rolled his eyes, coughed dryly, pointed at Guo Zhiyuan and said solemnly in Spanish to the Spanish bearded officer: "This Lord Guo is a diplomatic envoy sent by His Majesty the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty, and he came to Xingshi to ask for the crime of the murder of our dynasty's businessmen in Luzon, if you block it and cause a diplomatic conflict between the two countries, can you afford it?!" ……”

He didn't know that the Spaniards still ate this set, Spain itself is an imperial country, the status of the Spanish royal family at this time is still very high, the emperor's envoy is absolutely unattainable for this bearded officer, and the bearded officer himself is just a low-level officer, he doesn't know what the attitude of the top is towards this matter, seeing that Liu Tongshi's attitude is so tough, it is also a little blind, and the envoys of the Ming Dynasty who came before will show weakness when they see them put on such a formation, Guo Zhiyuan and they must have relied on them to be so tough in the face of their six warships, and if they really caused a conflict, he was a small low-level officer who couldn't afford to be guilty, so his attitude immediately softened, and he bowed slightly to Guo Zhiyuan and said: "Your Excellency Honorable Special Envoy, welcome to your arrival, your ship can follow our warship into our port to rest, but I have not received instructions from my superiors for the time being, so you can't land for the time being, I will report the news of your arrival as soon as possible, and wait for our Governor's Excellency to show me." to allow you to land ......"

That Liu Tongshi was a little dumbfounded when he heard the reply of the Spanish bearded officer, he thought that if he said such a tough word, he would definitely anger the Spanish officer immediately, and he would definitely leave angrily, and then use artillery to expel Guo Zhiyuan and their fleet, so that Guo Zhiyuan would be expelled without even seeing the face of the Spanish governor in the Philippines, and he would definitely become a laughing stock when he went back, and he would be able to successfully complete the task assigned by Lord Shen.

When did the Spaniards talk so well? actually saluted Guo Zhiyuan? Liu Tongshi couldn't figure out what was going on if he wanted to break his head, but he didn't dare to translate the bearded officer's words indiscriminately, after all, Guo Zhiyuan was not stupid, the bearded officer saluted him, Guo Zhiyuan must know that the bearded officer was speaking soft words, and if he translated indiscriminately, it would definitely arouse Guo Zhiyuan's suspicions, so he had to translate the bearded officer's words truthfully.

Guo Zhiyuan was also very happy to hear this, this start was not bad, the Spaniards did not directly turn him away, that means there is still something to talk about, so he smiled and nodded: "Guests are as you please, we will naturally abide by your rules when we arrive at your place, please tell your Excellency the Governor, I came to negotiate with you with sincerity, so I only brought two ships, I hope to see your Governor's Excellency as soon as possible......"

When Liu Tongshi heard this, he began to tremble again, and translated to the bearded officer: "Your Excellency the envoy said, you have to show the sincerity of apology when you kill our merchants who are doing business in Luzon, if your Excellency the Governor does not come to greet him in person, he will be very unhappy, his patience is limited, I hope you don't let him wait too long!" Otherwise, there won't be just two ships coming next time! ……”

Hearing such a big tone from Liu Tongshi, the bearded man felt more and more bottomless in his heart, and with some trepidation, he saluted Guo Zhiyuan again and turned to leave.

Guo Zhiyuan's fleet continued to move forward under the surveillance and escort of six Spanish warships, and as the ships got closer and closer, the gray shadows of the mainland began to become colorful. First of all, the striking yellow coast, like a golden thread that zigzags through the blue sea and the brown land, and the large buildings on the shore are slowly revealed......

The Spaniards have occupied the Philippines as a colony for many years, and under their management, the city of Manila has become quite large-scale, and you can see majestic Spanish-style buildings everywhere, towering church spires, red sloping roofs, and arc cornices, full of exotic customs, so that Guo Zhiyuan has a feeling of traveling to Europe, but the high city walls and the forts on the city walls are reminding Guo Zhiyuan that he is not here to experience exotic customs, and the black heavy artillery on the fort will bring him a death threat at any time!

However, what made Guo Zhiyuan feel the most palpitations was that there was a large area of ruins in the northeast of Manila City, and the buildings were all scorched and blackened by fire---. Slaughter. A year has passed since the killing, and there is still no one here, like a ghost domain, you can imagine how tragic the scene was at that time!

Guo Zhiyuan clenched his fists hard, and said secretly in his heart, compatriots, I'm late, but I swear I will never let such a tragedy happen again! I will definitely rescue the surviving compatriots who have been imprisoned, and I will definitely make China strong and not be bullied by any foreign enemy!

The ship slowly sailed to the wharf, Guo Zhiyuan found that there were not many ships moored in the harbor, and all of them were two-masted or three-masted European sailing ships, and there were also a small number of vermilion ships, but they could not see the Chinese fortune ships, so Guo Zhiyuan's Dafu ship was very eye-catching, because the Spaniards did not allow Guo Zhiyuan and their ships to dock, so Guo Zhiyuan and their fleet did not dock at the dock, but put down the rope and stopped on the sea not far from the dock, and the six Spanish warships did not dock, Instead, they continued to maintain an encirclement posture and monitored Guo Zhiyuan's fleet.

Here is very close to the shore, standing on the side of the boat can clearly see the people on the shore, most of them are short Filipino natives, they look at Guo Zhiyuan their eyes are full of hostility, on the shore Guo Zhiyuan also unexpectedly found some Chinese figures, but they are wearing shackles on their feet, their eyes are very empty, seeing Guo Zhiyuan and their arrival did not show a surprised expression, just numbly glanced at it, and continued to work with their heads hobbled.

At this time, in the office of a luxurious building in Manila City, the desk is next to the window, and on it are simply placed a few rolls of parchment, a few quills, an ink-stained blotting paper, and a carved silver cup. Behind the table is a luxurious chair painted with roses in red lacquered wood, and a scarlet sheepskin seat adorned with long silk tassels and gold ball-toed nails. In this room, apart from this chair, there is not a single piece of furniture that can be used for rest, there is no bench, and there is no beautiful column stool. There was only this chair in the room, which means that only one person has the right to sit in this place!

Pedro. Bravo. Morality. Acuña was the owner of the chair, wearing a pair of knee-length shorts, a tight-fitting silver striped infrared jacket, and a black and gold tweed jacket. This gorgeous costume seems to be gilded with gold in every fold in the sunlight. It is adorned with a brightly embroidered coat of arms, a light red oval coat of arms, an octagonal cross on the inside of the oval, surrounded by a rose totem, a royal curtain on the outermost periphery and a crown at the top. This coat of arms represents the glory of the Knights Hospitaller of St. John of Jerusalem.

Acuña was half-reclining in his chair, his hands crossed in front of his chest, his eyes closed, as the Spanish governor in the Philippine colony, he had supreme power here, he could appoint and dismiss colonial officials as he pleased, control and supervise all the administrative organs and armies of the government, he could also exonerate those who had been convicted, he could also announce amnesty, in short, he could decide the life and death and fate of the people of this land with one sentence, this feeling was indeed very cool!

At this moment, the door opened, and in a panic rushed in—a man, shouting as he ran: "Your Excellency! Excellency! The messenger of the Biological Man (the Biological Man is the Spanish contempt for the Chinese of the time) came ......"

Acuña was very upset that he was enjoying the pleasure of power, and the fat on his face twitched violently, and he opened his eyes suddenly, and scolded the attendant who rushed in to report: "Don't you know to knock on the door?!" Didn't know if it was my lunch break?! ……”

Only then did the attendant realize that his behavior was a little out of shape, and swallowed a mouthful of saliva in some trepidation, and said tremblingly: "Your Excellency, I was wrong, but ......"

Acuña became even more angry, pointed to the door and said angrily: "No, but now get out of here, knock on the door again and come in!" ……”
