Chapter 125 [The Conspiracy of the King of Burma]

The Ryukyu envoys, who were calmed down, walked out of the cabin to the top, sat in the attic and looked out through the window at the fierce naval battle between the two sides.

At this time, the general soldier of Ming Fujian, who was sitting in the attic, drank a cup of tea and laughed: "Hehe, how's it?" Ben wasn't lying, was he? Not to mention these little Japanese ships! Even if a large-scale fleet comes, it will give Ben a little face on this sea. ”

At this time, the Ryukyu envoy saw the powerful ability of the Fujian Navy Ming Army to fight quickly, and he hurriedly clapped his hands and praised, "Lord Zheng, you are really the overlord in the water!" To our admiration, the Ming Dynasty has such a general, I am afraid that it is not impossible to recover the old Hong Kong Xuanwei Division in the future? When the Ming Fujian generals saw that the Ryukyu envoy deliberately curryed favor with him, they humbly toasted him a glass of wine, and the two continued to talk freely, and all seven Satsuma Domain ships at sea were sunk, except for the two who escaped in a small boat.

On the other side, in the Ming Qian Guogong: Mu Tianbo, the Tusi soldiers and the Dian army under the leadership of the army drove through the Mubang Military and Civilian Propaganda Division, and on the way, the Ming Qian Guogong suddenly changed his mind?

He thought to himself; Since the Wanli period, the imperial court has lost the five comforts in the (three Xuan and six comforts) both; Myanmar Military and Civilian Propaganda Division, Mubang Military and Civilian Propaganda and Consolation Division, 800 Dadian Military and Civilian Propaganda and Consolation Division, Meng Yang Military and Civilian Propaganda and Consolation Division, and Lao Military and Civilian Propaganda and Consolation Division, if they rashly go to the territory of the Myanmar Military and Civilian Propaganda Division, I am afraid that they will be conspired against?

Therefore, he said to the Dio Gurat envoys who accompanied him: "I wonder who is the Burmese consolation envoy today?" "Because the Duke of Ming Qianguo was young and not yet proficient in the various languages of the Sanxuan and Liuwei regions, the accompanying Ming Yunnan Tongshi: Dugu Tao, was translated to the Diwu envoys.

I saw that the Diwura envoys covered their mouths and smiled and replied, "Donghu language: the words of the returning prince, now the Diwura consolation envoy and the Burmese consolation envoy have long been merged into one, and it is the successor of King Talong, although my lord occupies the realm of the five major consolation divisions, but he still thinks that the imperial court cannot be compared with the previous two Burmese kings: Mang Yinglong and King Liangyuan!" ”

Having said that, for the sake of safety, the Ming Qianguo Gong did not advance, but led his army south to the Taunggyi Military and Civilian Prefecture area of the Dutch East India Company's De Wu Propaganda Division, and asked the Di Wu Lai mission to write a letter to the Ming Burma Xuan Envoy Dong Hu King: King Ta Long.

As soon as the Ming Qianguo Gong crossed the border and entered the territory of the Dongzhi Military and Civilian Mansion of the Diwu Xuanwei Division, women can be seen everywhere on the streets along the way, wearing silk and gold (sari clothes), and from time to time you can see women wearing veils leaking out of their stomachs dancing, and men wearing (Gulda) costumes, wearing white pointed hats, and playing with pythons.

The soldiers of the Ming Dynasty and the Dian Army saw that the women of the Graceful Diwu Xuanwei Division were dressed so leaky, and they all sighed: "Hey! What a violation of customs! But the toast soldiers on the side watched it with relish, and clapped their hands and praised while watching, "These women are really good-looking!" If you have a chance, you'll have to get a few to go back and have fun. ”

And Ming Qianguogong, who was riding in front, didn't want the soldiers to fall into it, so he shouted: "Soldiers, advance at full speed, be sure to hurry to the Taunggyi Military and Civilian Mansion." ”

At this time, the Governor of the Dutch East Indies in Taunggyi, Van Persie Schulz, had just taken a sip of tea when he saw a soldier break into the government office and report, "Dutch language: Report to Your Excellency the Governor, there is a Ming official leading the army to the side of the government. "The Dutch Governor of Taunggyi suppose he must have come to get them out of this place? He commanded, "Dutch: Where is Colonel Taunggyi?" Hurry up and let him straighten out the soldiers and horses, Bendu wants to see how powerful the Ming army is? ”

Ming Qianguogong, who was walking on the street and was about to arrive at the door of the mansion, saw the mansion and quickly rushed out of a Heyi musket, each holding an arquebus and a smoothbore gun aimed at himself, so frightened that the Tusi soldiers behind him were ready to fight with knives, arrows and spears, and the Ming and Yunnan musketeers also stood up and wanted to shoot.

However, the Colonel of the Dutch East Indies in Taunggyi, Van Patton, did not dare to take the lead in firing, after all, there was also the delegation of the Dvula Propaganda Division next to him, and the Ming Empire still had some fame in the territory of the Burmese Military and Civilian Propaganda Division, so the Dutch Colonel Taunggyi, who was calm, put away his (hooked claw handcuff), smiled and said, "Dutch: misunderstanding, misunderstanding!" I don't know that the Ming envoy came from afar, and I almost thought it was a garrison that had broken into this place by mistake? After that, he waved his hand for the translator to explain.

However, the Duke of Ming Qian also saw that He Yi didn't dare to go too far, so he said kindly, "Today, the Duke of China came here to ask for an explanation for the establishment of a branch in the territory of the Diwu Xuanwei Division for no reason, who is your chief?" His lord wants to see him. The Dutch interpreter whispered an explanation to Colonel Taunggyi.

After that, Colonel Taunggyi of the Netherlands immediately made a welcome gesture, and the Duke of Ming Qian dismounted and prepared to enter the palace, but the commander of the Ming Guangnan Guard next to him: Miao Panxi, the deputy envoy of Ming Yunnan and the sub-inspector of Jincang Dao: Yang Weizhi, these two people persuaded and said, "Lord Guogong, don't go to the palace!" What if the Heyi fraud is so dangerous? ”

But the young Ming Qianguo Gong was not afraid at all, he patted his chest and said confidently, "Don't worry, your father will go back when he goes, don't worry!" ”

So the general soldier of the Ming and Yunnan Army: Pan Hongyong, stepped forward to ask for the safety of the accompanying escort to protect the safety of the Duke of Guogong, and then slowly walked into the Dongzhi Military and Civilian Mansion, and under the leadership of the Dutch translator, the Ming Qianguo Duke met with the Dutch Governor of Taunggyi in the lobby of the Government Office.

I saw a middle-aged man with curly red hair, wearing a d'Artagnan hat and wearing a (jazz suit), walking up to him, handing over a cup of black and saying, "Dutch: How about you taste our most expensive specialty coffee in Europe?" ”

Ming Qianguo Gong saw the black thing in the cup? He didn't dare to drink it for fear of poison, and the general soldier of the Ming and Dian Army who accompanied him also glanced at it and said, "Lord Guogong, don't drink it, this eighty percent is Heyi deliberately trying to poison you?" ”

However, the surrounding Dutch Colonel Taunggyi, the Dutch interpreter and the Dutch soldiers standing guard covered their mouths and laughed, looking at the arrogant and rude attitude of the Dutch people! Ming Qianguo Gong was furious, and immediately slapped the table and said: "The Duke of China is not going around in circles, I just want to talk about what kind of company you are building in the Diwu Xuanwei Division?" What is the purpose? Do you want to treat me as nothing? ”

The Dutch Governor of Taunggyi, who was sitting across from him, took a sip of coffee and said, "Dutch: Oh no, no, no, I think Your Excellency has misunderstood the Governor's intentions, and we are here to develop Asian civilization and help these backward tribes to achieve prosperity as soon as possible. After listening to the explanation of the Heyi interpreter, the envoy retorted: "Donghu: In that case, why do you still plunder our resources? and to collect taxes from the local people. ”

The cunning Dutch governor of Taunggyi replied with a pretense of "Dutch: What? We plundered your supplies? Who did this? This governor will severely punish and not lend! ”

Immediately afterwards, he deliberately scolded Colonel Taunggyi, making Ming Qianguo feel as if they were sincerely repentant? After the scolding, the Dutch Governor of Taunggyi apologized to the Ming Qianguo Gong, and offered to give 30,000 francs to the Ming Empire to show that he had become a local legal concession like Frankie, which was something that the Ming Qianguo Gong never expected?

He thought he was going to fight with Heyi, but who knew that Heyi took the initiative to give in? And I don't have any reason to refuse? After all, the Sanxuan and Liuwei areas have actually been out of the jurisdiction of the imperial court, and if there is no army to suppress it, I am afraid it will be difficult to calm down for a while, so it is better to take a step back than to offend people, as long as Heyi does not cause trouble.

Considering all kinds of reasons, the Duke of Ming Qian immediately agreed, and asked the Ming Yunnan General to explain to the Diwura mission: "Donghu language: rest assured! In the future, Heyi will not come to loot the finances, go back and tell the Burmese Xuanwei envoy not to worry! ”

Then the Heyi interpreter was very happy to send the Ming Qianguo Gong out of the palace, and the Dian army and Tusi soldiers outside were also very happy to see the Guogong Lord, only the Ming Yunnan Deputy Inspector did not know the inside story and asked, "Lord Guogong, how did you negotiate terms with Heyi?" ”

So Ming Qian Guogong told them the cause and effect, who thought that the deputy envoy of Ming Yunnan felt that this matter was a bit serious, after all, it was related to the interests of the Myanmar Military and Civilian Propaganda Department and the Ming Empire, and if it was not handled well, then it was likely to lead to the Burmese Military and Civilian Propaganda Department completely out of the control of the imperial court, so he suggested that the Guogong should go back immediately to cancel the matter, but the raw rice has been cooked and the rice is irreversible! Moreover, if you really want to fight, you may not have a chance of winning, and the Burmese Military and Civilian Propaganda Department has not sent a single soldier so far, which is also the reason why the Ming Qianguo Gong made up his mind to agree to the Heyi concession.

At the same time, in the Burmese Military and Civilian Propaganda Division's Awa City Propaganda Department (Burmese Royal Palace), King Talong, who was sitting on the main hall wearing a golden straight hat and wearing fish scale armor, looked at the herald kneeling under the main hall, he did not immediately let the herald get up and hand over the letter, but closed his eyes and pondered for a while and said, "Donghu language: Flat, say it!" ”

Only then did the herald slowly stand up and hand over the letter to the Burmese eunuch next to him, and King Talong, who had taken the letter, opened it and thought to himself; The dignified Lord of Qianguo, the governor of the Ming Empire, in the Sanxuan and Liuwei region under the jurisdiction of the General Secretary of the Ming Empire, was actually just a 26-year-old young hairy boy, and instantly made King Long salivate over the southwest border of the Ming Empire, and he said with murderous aura in his eyes, "Donghu language: Lonely, the current opponent is not the Heyi East India Company?" Rather, it was the Ming Empire. ”

Everyone in the audience was shocked when they heard this, and hurriedly persuaded them, "Donghu language: I think I still need to think about this matter!" Although we have gotten rid of the control of the Ming Empire, I am afraid that the strength to fight back against the Ming Dynasty is insufficient! The seizure of Yunnan Chengxuan is also more than enough but not enough? Seeing that the people persuaded him so much, the king gave up, but he ordered the soldiers to intensify their training from today onwards in preparation for an early expedition.

At the same time, Wu Junzhen's side has also escorted the county lord of Ming Tai'an: Zhu Youlan, to the territory of Hanoi County, the capital of Huaiqing Prefecture, Henan Chengxuan, Wu Junzhen once knew the prefect of the prefect, so as soon as he entered the city, he was Ming Huaiqing prefect: Bai Ammonia, and his soldiers ran to report the situation, and when they were about to enter the palace, they met Prince Mingfu: Zhu Yousong, Wu Junzhen and Ma Wei, who had not seen each other for half a year, were suddenly a little excited when they saw His Royal Highness Prince Mingfu, and hurriedly stepped forward to salute and bowed down on one knee, and there were sad tears in their eyes.

Seeing this, Prince Mingfu hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Hurry up, two of you, please get up, the lonely king can't stand it!" If it hadn't been for the rescue of the two benefactors, the Lone King would have been besieged to death by the rogue! If you can meet a benefactor here today, the lonely king will be rewarded. ”
