Section 895 Chaotic situation
The Chinese fulfilled the treaty and sent the Hongmao fan of Malacca City to leave by boat.
However, the treaty does not say that the fare is free.
Don't give?
Hehe, the Chinese people are trying to show up in poverty: "Don't you also want to have a grand funeral?" ”
The red-haired fans had to give, and after giving enough fares...... Each person was allowed to carry only ten Spanish silver dollars, and the rest of his belongings were left behind.
The Chinese didn't do much and put them on a ship and sent them back to India.
Since then, the red-haired fans who have retreated from Malacca City have learned the four Chinese characters of "Scenery Burial" and are deeply impressed!
The city of Malacca finally fell into the hands of the Southeast Army, and the Chinese knocked on the abacus, and it seemed that there was no loss, and there was still a profit!
The city of Malacca was captured, and the Strait of Malacca became a waterway controlled by the Southeast Province.
Not only Malacca City, but also Macau has returned to the hands of the Chinese.
The two China are one, and the territory occupied by the red hairy fan in all places will be recovered.
And by extension, to foreign countries!
In the Wa Kingdom, the Edo shogunate, at the request of their cheap son-in-law, Yan Tsunetake, closed the Dutch trading house in Nagasaki.
In Annam, the Monkey Kingdom also closed the merchant house of Hongmaofan and drove Hongmaofan out of the country!
The biggest plus is Luzon!
The Chinese fleet is approaching the city, and the Spaniards are captured!
They don't have a fleet there, they don't count the defenses, and they have few people (if there are more people, won't there be more people who share money).
The Philippines fell into the hands of the Chinese and came under the jurisdiction of the Southeast Province.
Eventually, the entire eastern ocean fell into the hands of the Chinese.
Yan Changwu thought about it carefully and did not move Hongmaofan until Hongmaofan made trouble, and after he occupied the righteous name, he went down in one fell swoop and grabbed all the territory.
The Chinese did not completely drive out the Spaniards, but leased Manila to the Spaniards at a rent of 1,000 silver coins a year, meaning that they would be contracted every ten years
In this way, the galleon trade routes with the Spaniards were maintained, and goods were transported from Luzon to the Americas, earning American silver, and the rest of European trade was interrupted.
The red-haired merchant ships that had withdrawn from various places gathered in Manila to trade, struggling to maintain trade between the East and the West during the difficult years of war between the two sides.
They loaded their cargo on ships, sailed from Luzon, crossed the Pacific Ocean, reached Mexico, and then sailed along the coast of South America, through the treacherous Cape Horn, back to the shores of South America, and finally across the rough Atlantic Ocean back to Europe.
The road is long, and the Americas route is longer and more dangerous than the African line that starts from Southeast Asia, passes through the Indian Ocean, sails along the coast of Africa, and finally returns to Europe.
They have to cross two oceans, and the supply of the Americas is not easy, as long as the African line crosses the Indian Ocean, there are Hongmaofan merchant houses along the coast of Africa.
Some of the red-haired boats honestly earn this hard-earned money, but more red-haired boats have become privateers, plundering the Chinese in Southeast Asia!
On the Indian side, with the support of the Dutch East India Company and the British East India Company, they launched an attack on Southeast Asia.
The end of 45 and the beginning of 47 A.D. was a difficult period for the Chinese in Southeast Asia, who were in a situation where they had nowhere to go and could not sleep peacefully.
Although the battleships in the southeast province were powerful, they could not catch up with the armed merchant ships of the red hair, so they could only stay in the harbor and use them as batteries.
The number of cruisers and corvettes is still insufficient, and the waters of Southeast Asia are so vast that there are only 100 warships defending many ports and shipping routes, and they are exhausted.
The red-haired fan ran when he saw the warship, and robbed the civilian ship when he encountered it, skillfully coming to the game of the enemy advancing and retreating, and the enemy retreating and I advanced.
The armed merchant ships of the red hairy fan even jumped to Guangdong Province and Taiwan to wreak havoc!
Two other boats ran to Tuao, causing the coastal areas of Tuao to enter the first level of combat readiness, which was very tense.
You blocked the Strait of Malacca, and they came from the waters south of Sumatra.
If you can get by, you can let the boat go!
You can't defend against it at all, even if you put a large number of warships in the south of Sumatra, it is impossible to block the "Roaring Westerly Wind", manpower is poor, and nature is infinite!
Between 40 degrees and 0 degrees south latitude, roughly on the south side of the subtropical high in the southern hemisphere, there is a special low pressure area around the earth, and the special thing about this low pressure area is that it always prevails with five or six strength westerly winds throughout the year, which often blows waves several meters high. In particular, there are at least 7 or more winds of magnitude 7 or higher for more than a week to 10 days a month throughout the year. This is the famous Southern Hemisphere Westerly Belt, nicknamed the Roaring Westerly Belt.
The Roaring Westerly Wind Belt was discovered and named by a navigator, in 0 A.D., a Dutch navigator Hendrik encountered a strong westerly wind when he sailed by boat through the sea at 40 degrees south latitude, although the strong wind and waves caused the ship to jolt badly, but he found that with this strong westerly wind, he could use this strong westerly wind to go eastward in the Indian Ocean at high speed, all the way to Batavia.
Batavia, now the capital of the southeastern capital, Rising Sun!
There was no shortage of courage in the red-haired fan, sailing on the roaring westerly wind belt, which the Southeast Fleet could not intercept.
It's hard for you to sail, let alone shoot.
The Hongmao Fan, who entered Southeast Asia, fought wherever they wanted, they attacked the villages on the shore and robbed merchant ships, it was a carnival, but it was not a feast!
Friends come with good wine, jackals come with shotguns!
The Chinese soldiers and civilians in Southeast Asia held muskets in their hands, and there were escorts and patrols on the sea, strictly guarded to the death, and launched a-for-tat battle with the red hairy fan.
But if you don't get rid of the red hair for a day, you can't relax for a day.
Among them, the commander of the Southeast Fleet, Hong Xu, is the most bitter, as the supreme commander of the fleet, he must exterminate the Hongmao Fan in the waters of Southeast Asia, and it is his duty to do so!
He commanded the siege of Malacca City here, and tried his best to deal with Hongmaofan over there.
increased patrols of the fleet;
organizing armed escorts of merchant ships;
conscription of retired veterans and arming merchant ships;
Merchant ships are equipped with cannons, camouflaged, and lured red hairy fans to rob;
……
It is still impossible to prevent it, and even when others are in Malacca City, there is a red-haired cannon to attack the Rising Sun City, and he eats the matter of being punished and cut off, so he knows that the position of this commander is not easy to sit.
As soon as I inquired, the former commander Chen De was breezy and light-hearted, fishing and hunting in the manor, and I didn't know how happy he was!
Compared with others, Hong Xuguan is young, and his hair is grayer.
Cheng Yu, the commander of the Second Fleet he sent to deal with Hongmaofan, was a "half-man" who was blind and lame, and his work was fruitless, which caused the Chinese to laugh bitterly: "Oh, why can't we catch up with Hongmaofan, it's because the commander is a lame man and can't run fast!" ”
Of course, the insulting words are not right, but the predicament of the Southeast Fleet and even the Chinese is exposed.
The life of the red hairy fan is not easy, and the life of the Chinese is also sad.
At the beginning, there was no day without fighting, and people were often killed, and reports of attacks were reported to the Rising Sun City every day.
Winter has finally passed, spring has returned to the earth, and when everyone can't stand it, the leader has returned from mainland China!
