Chapter 252: The Joy of Referring to a Deer as a Horse
"So the two tragedies in Manila before and after, not all of them were Spaniards?"
The blue sea and blue sky, the golden sun shines on the sea, and the warm sea breeze blows people's faces. A huge fleet is sailing. Battleships of all sizes left white water marks on the turquoise sea.
A tall fortune ship surrounded by warships in the center, a dragon cloud sea flag, and a huge Zheng character handsome flag, fluttering in the wind.
In the cabin, Zheng Zhilong sat on the main seat, listening to the intelligence officer of the Black Ice Platform. He already knew a lot of the content inside, and these words were more for Zheng Ping beside him.
When the intelligence officer heard Zheng Ping's exclamation, he immediately replied: "In the thirty-first year of Wanli (1603), although the Spaniards had established themselves in Luzon at that time, their number was far less than the current number. In the Dalun Mountain tragedy, there were 400 Spanish and Japanese accomplices, 200 Tianfang believers, 300 blacks, and 2,000 Bangbangya. Seven years ago, the Chinese were killed twice, and the Spaniards were the main force in the area for decades and were strong......"
"Now that Manila Tianfang believers and Japanese overseas Chinese have heard that Hou Ye has brought troops, many people have escaped by boat recently......"
"That's not going to be all over, is it?" Zheng Zhilong's voice was full of murder. As he spoke, his eyes were aimed at Zheng Ping, who had a calm face.
"Hou Ye clearly sees that those who can escape quickly by boat are a small number of people."
"That's very good. It's time for revenge—"
Zheng Zhilong felt that he was worried in vain, Zheng Ping's face did not show any fluctuation at all, it was not the slightest word of intercession for the Japanese overseas Chinese. This made Zheng Zhilong extremely satisfied.
And turn around and think about Luzon, the Spaniards, the Celestials, the blacks, the Bangbangya......
These enemies carry a lot of weight. Clean them all up, and the whole of Luzon will be clean. The anti-China forces are all finished.
However, the first three groups are easy to clean up, and the Bangbangya people in the back are in trouble.
As a group of indigenous people on the island, the number of Bangbangya people is not very large, and it will end up with three or two hundred thousand. But they are widely distributed, from the central plain of Luzon to the southwest region, and then to Cebu Island in the south. But this hidden danger is something he must remove.
Because the Bangbanga people are the Spaniards' best assistants on the island.
When Spain and Lin Feng were fighting, they had already charged for the Spaniards. Decades of training, that's already a good dog, for Spain. Therefore, Zheng Zhilong can't tolerate this dog that has to be tamed by the Spaniards, and continues to live on the island.
The army was divided in two in the Sulu Sea, Zheng Zhilong led all the way north to Manila, and Zheng Sen led a part to the east to kill Cebu.
At the time of their separation, he had orders to Zheng Sen, and he did not need to show mercy to the Spaniards and their servants, and to the Bangbangya people.
Zheng Ping saw everything in his eyes, but he didn't feel that there was anything wrong.
It's just revenge, and it's all the enemies that are killed, what's the pity?
However, when the army successfully took the royal city of Manila, lifted all the Spaniards in it to the banks of the Bashi River, and escorted all the natives, blacks, Tianfangs, Japanese, Chinese traitors, men, women, old and weak to the execution ground to be beheaded, he still couldn't help but be afraid.
In fact, Zheng Zhilong watched the heads fall to the ground, and he felt a little guilty in his heart.
But no matter how much he responds, he must persevere.
watched Lin Shaoqing and other Chinese people cheer from the excitement at the beginning, to the sallow faces later; Watching the generals and soldiers of Nibo and Sulu who came with them leap from joy to silence one by one; And the leaders and warriors of some of the indigenous tribes around Manila who did not participate in the massacre went from babbling to not saying a word......
Zheng Zhilong smiled in his heart. He knew that his Liwei had succeeded.
Cutting off people's heads and building a view of Beijing, it stands on the bank of the Bashi River, in front of the royal city of Manila built by the Spaniards.
This is a bloody way to warn the natives of the whole of the South Seas, to warn the whole of Europe......
As for the indiscriminate killing of innocents, no one is qualified to say that he killed innocents indiscriminately, and he is taking revenge.
The Spaniards are killing innocents indiscriminately.
In the two massacres, the blood of more than 50,000 Chinese could not be shed in vain.
And he didn't kill all the Europeans, he didn't kill any of the shepherds in Luzon.
Even Zheng Zhilong hoped that there would be fearless warriors among these sheepherds, accusing him of killing innocents indiscriminately and going to hell.
Zheng Zhilong had already thought of a countermeasure in his heart.
Unfortunately, his efforts were in vain.
These shepherds did not have the courage of the old-timer David, and in the face of Zheng Zhilong, an invincible giant, they chose to surrender and choose to sink instead of heroic resistance.
"They are very pitiful, aren't they pitiful to the old and weak Chinese women and children who were slaughtered at the beginning?" The lives of more than 50,000 Chinese are resisted by the lives of three or four thousand Spaniards in front of them, and that is cheaper than the big duck.
In the current barbaric era, blood for blood and tooth for tooth is the foothold of the nation-state.
"You will have your own people, even your own kingdom. We must keep in mind one sentence: natural selection, survival of the fittest; The law of the jungle, survival of the fittest! ”
"You can be righteous and love not only your own people, but also the people of other people. Just like the famous Heavenly Khan Li Shimin in history. But you also have to remember that kindness is a qualification reserved for the strong. Li Shimin's "Heavenly Khan" is backed by the great military might of the Tang Dynasty, and is based on the arrogance of the Tang Army's iron cavalry to fight all over the world. During the Zhenguan period, the Tang Dynasty attacked from all sides, Jin Ge Iron Horse, swallowing thousands of miles like a tiger. He was able to treat the defeated people of all ethnic groups as his own, and even dragged a large number of Turks to the south of the Yellow River to settle down, because he was sure to suppress all resistance. The invincible Tang Army is his greatest confidence. You can be merciful, but you have to be sure to suppress everything. Otherwise, your kindness and benevolence can only call you the second Song Xianggong. ”
Cutting off the head, Zheng Zhilong sent people to build a temple in Beijing, and he held a banquet on the bank of the Bus River. Next to it is the murder execution ground, where human heads and headless corpses are piled up, and the strong smell of blood is near his nose and mouth, Zheng Zhilong also feels very disgusting. But he can raise his glass and drink with everyone present without changing his face, and it must be said that after these years, he is no longer the original him.
The look of the people present was very funny.
One by one, they were obviously unsettled, but they still had to force a smile and flatter Zheng Zhilong.
He saw everything in his eyes at the top, looking at the Chinese leaders, indigenous leaders, Sulu and Nibo generals below, who didn't want to laugh but had to smile at him, and his heart was really happy.
This is probably the fun of 'pointing a deer to a horse'.
