Within a day, the governor of Batavia had left Batavia with the remaining Dutchmen and his servants.

Among his servants, the Japanese people all went with him, and there was no way to do it.

Far from it, the Japanese people were not treated well by the Ming people, and the Ming and the Japanese were still in a state of war; Recently, they also offended Su Shigui, and I don't know if Su Shigui will retaliate against them, and they don't dare to stay. Therefore, the Japanese had no choice but to follow the Dutch and continue to work for the Dutch.

Only a small number of the indigenous soldiers followed. As for the others, they either went to add the feet of Su Shigui and other Ming people, or scattered in the mountains and forests and returned to their own tribes.

On the port dock, looking at his subordinates, all listlessly getting on the boat, Anthony sighed in his heart, then stood up, turned his head to look at Su Shigui behind, and opened his mouth to speak, but he didn't know what to say. Eventually, he sighed and said, "You are so lucky to have a strong country!" ”

"Who says it isn't!" When Su Shigui heard this, he was a little proud, and with a little irony, he said to Anthony, "If we don't have a strong country, we will all be killed by you!" ”

Anthony laughed self-deprecatingly, and did not speak again, but turned a little silently and walked towards the ship.

Su Shigui watched them get on the boat, and it can also be said that he supervised them all to get on the boat. From then on, the masters of this Batavia, they are the ones who are the Ming Dynasty.

Behind him, a young man suddenly came up to him and whispered, "Uncle, we have weapons in our hands now, why don't we leave them all?" ”

Su Shigui listened, turned his head to look at him, and then glanced in the direction of the small family in the distance, and finally retracted his gaze, shook his head and said: "Forget it, we are not sure of winning, if we affect the family and suffer heavy casualties, we will disappoint the emperor." ”

Although they have weapons in their hands, although they are more numerous than the remnants of the Dutch, but the Dutch also have weapons in their hands, and there are Japanese warriors to help, and when the time comes, they may not be able to beat them.

After finishing speaking, Su Shigui's spirit suddenly rose, and he instructed the people around him: "The key point in front of us is to welcome the arrival of the imperial court, and all things must be handed over to the imperial court, and we must not be careless!" ”

If it's just them, they won't be able to hold Batavia, and they will definitely be eaten by the natives. Besides, it was the imperial court that saved them from the Dutch, and it was also the imperial court that forced the Dutch away, no matter what, this Batavia should belong to the imperial court.

When the others heard this, they all showed excitement and nodded hurriedly. It can be seen that their faces are a little impatient.

At noon the next day, the Ming people who were waiting at the mouth of the river suddenly saw a fleet coming in the distance, and it was the flag of the Ming Dynasty fluttering in the wind. The people on the ship, probably all on deck, were red.

"Guanjun, it's the Guanjun who is coming, come on!" The people who saw it first shouted wildly, and the excitement was like a welcoming procession.

Before this, they had never imagined that they would be so excited and so impatient when they saw the imperial court officials and soldiers coming.

The wolf smoke rose, and on the side of Batavia, which ruled five miles away, the court officials and soldiers arrived!

Soon, here in Batavia, the news spread, and the whole city was a sensation. Regardless of men, women, and children, all flocked to the direction of the port, and everyone anxiously padded their feet, stretched their necks and looked at the direction of the river, just thinking about the first time to see what it was like to be able to subdue the most powerful Xiyi and kill them to the court.

Wait, wait, they never felt it, how could this time be so long? This waiting is really too anxious!

Finally, the Ming warships drove in along the river, and the Ming people here in the port of Batavia could see it, and they were all excited, and many people began to spontaneously walk out along the river to meet the imperial court officials.

In everyone's hands, there are gifts that they have carefully prepared in these two days, including food and drink......

Eating pot pulp and greeting Wang Shi, this scene would never have happened in the original history, and it appeared on this plane.

The imperial court took over Batavia, renamed it Ming Zao City, and set up Ming Zao County, which was under the jurisdiction of Nanyang Prefecture. The government of Nanyang Province was located in the later Singapore.

There is no doubt that the purpose of this setting is to put the two important passages of the Pacific Ocean and the Indian Ocean in the hands of the Ming Dynasty. Among them, the Strait of Malacca is the most important. By the way, this Strait of Malacca was also renamed and called the Zheng He Strait, in honor of the time when Zheng He's fleet passed through here.

Daming's approach also caused a little episode.

The Portuguese wanted to reoccupy the Zheng Ho Strait, citing the fact that the Dutch had taken it from them. Now that the Dutch have been defeated, it should be returned to Portugal.

For this, Da Ming directly refused. said that this was taken by Da Ming from the Dutch, of course it belonged to Da Ming.

The Portuguese also want to argue with reason, the Ming side directly made it clear that the carriage and horses, this is the most important waterway that affects the Ming Dynasty, it is impossible for others to occupy, you Portugal, either turn against the Ming Dynasty, or only obey.

As soon as this reason came out, the Portuguese were speechless. Although they had prepared a lot of reasons before, however, they could only admit it when they were blocked by such a strong reason as Daming.

Seeing that the Portuguese had relented, Lu Xiangsheng gave them another reason to comfort: even if the Strait of Malacca is given to you Portugal, you will not be able to gain a foothold here, don't forget, when you Portuguese occupied this place before, they were at war with the Kingdom of Johor continuously, so they gave the Dutch a chance to drive you away.

Only this place belongs to the Ming Dynasty, so that Siyi can surrender, and no one dares to say anything!

At this time, of course, the Portuguese realized the strength of the Ming Dynasty and understood that the Ming Dynasty was in Nanyang, and it had been the suzerainty since ancient times, and it had a great influence.

The Ming Dynasty has now sent troops to drive away the Dutch and Spaniards, and set the place they occupied as the territory directly under the jurisdiction of the Ming Dynasty.

If you think about the occupation of this side, you are fighting to the death with the natives here, and you have never been stable at all.

This gap is indeed too big!

Thinking that the greatest trade benefits can be obtained from the Ming Dynasty, the Nanyang side is in the Ming Dynasty's sphere of influence, so there is no objection to Portugal's return to Europe, at least there is a guarantee on the Nanyang side.

The affairs on the Nanyang side are basically settled. As soon as the Ming Dynasty sent troops, they cleaned up Spain along with the Dutch, and also occupied Luzon and the two most important straits.

Of course, there is still a little bit left unaddressed.

For example, Antony, the former governor of Batavia, the Netherlands, has not yet been apprehended. It is said that he fled to the Strait of Hormuz in the Middle East, and it is not known whether he eventually fled back to the Netherlands.

When it comes to this Strait of Hormuz, it is another sad history of the Portuguese. In the fifth year of the Apocalypse, the Dutch, together with the British, took the Strait of Hormuz from the Portuguese.

In addition, the two warships led by Spain's Philot were lucky enough to avoid the battle of Manila, and after knowing that Luzon was occupied by the Ming army, they immediately fled from Taiwan. When passing through Taiwan, he also went ashore to rob and kill, replenished supplies, and then fled to the direction of the Japanese country, probably to cross the Pacific Ocean and flee to the Americas.

These two things were finally reported to Emperor Chongzhen, who had moved to Guangzhou. For this reason, Emperor Chongzhen issued two holy decrees in succession.

The first decree was directed at Anthony, a fugitive from the Netherlands. An order was issued to Yan Yingyuan, the governor of Dongwu, to build a shipyard in a port on the coast of the Indian Ocean in Dongwu, and to prepare for the formation of a new naval base in the Ming Dynasty.

The second decree is the will to hunt down and kill the Spanish Philot. Emperor Chongzhen said that for the murderers who slaughtered the people of the Ming Dynasty, even if they were chased to the ends of the earth, they would be hunted down to the end. Therefore, the will to conquer the Wa Kingdom was officially issued.

On the one hand, the Wa Kingdom has long coveted the Ming Dynasty, and it cannot be kept and must be destroyed; On the other hand, the Ming Dynasty wanted to cross the Pacific Ocean and continue to hunt down the Spaniards based on the Japanese islands.

These two wills can be said to be a supplement and follow-up to Emperor Chongzhen's clear will to show the world before launching the Luzon War, so that everyone knows that the words that Emperor Chongzhen said at the beginning are by no means a joke: "Luzon Xiyi and the local aborigines slaughtered the Ming people four times, regardless of men, women and children, such evil deeds, people and gods are angry!" How to repay virtue with virtue? Don't think I'm muddy, dare to attack my Ming people, I will retaliate with a tooth for a tooth, Luzon is an example! Although the ends of the earth are far away, I will never spare them! My oath can be learned from heaven and earth! ”

True to his word, this label of Emperor Chongzhen has been emphasized again, so that everyone understands that Emperor Chongzhen's words must be valued. In this regard, it will naturally help to enhance the prestige of Emperor Chongzhen in the country and the country.

Not to mention what the common people think about this, Emperor Chongzhen did not pay attention to it at this time, and his attention shifted to domestic construction.

When the Portuguese fleet, which had just returned with a full load of Ming goods, came all the way from Europe, it naturally brought what the Ming Dynasty needed: books, talents;

At this time, Europe was at the end of the Thirty Years' War, a long war that killed nearly half of Europe's population. It can be said that after such a long period of war, if there is a place to escape, if you don't want to fight, of course you want to escape.

Therefore, the Portuguese recruited for the Ming Dynasty, and there were not too many people who signed up, and after being personally selected by the King of Portugal, the rest of the people were now standing in front of Emperor Chongzhen.
