851 absent-minded

At this time, when Sun Chuanting heard this, his face suddenly became gloomy, and he immediately shouted: "Bring it up!" ”

"Yes!" The guerrilla received the order and immediately waved his hand back.

After a while, two soldiers of the Ming army dragged a person and threw it in front of Sun Chuanting: "My lord, he is paralyzed, he hid before he had time to escape, and was discovered by the native." ”

One of the soldiers, telling him about this, pointed back, and was the Indian in the Oriental robe, who was very recognizable.

Sun Chuanting didn't care about anything else, just stared at the ground. Although he didn't know him, he could still roughly see the shadow in the portrait, so he asked coldly: "Are you the traitor Bao Chengxian who forgot his ancestors and turned his back on the Ming Dynasty?" ”

That's right, this person is Bao Chengxian, because he was paralyzed, at this critical time of escaping, Haoge and the others just wanted to escape quickly, and they abandoned him because they thought he was a burden.

At this time, Bao Chengxian was extremely embarrassed, and before he could recover from the grief of being abandoned by his master, he was shocked when he saw a Ming official in a big red robe asking.

He didn't expect that the Ming Emperor would actually send a feudal official to chase and kill, which is really far away!

At this time, although Bao Chengxian knew that begging for mercy was likely useless, but the nature of seeking survival made him make a choice, and hurriedly said to Sun Chuanting: "My lord, the villain is the criminal minister Bao Chengxian, the villain is willing to make up for his mistakes and serve the adult, the villain is very familiar with those remnants of the Jianju, as long as the villain can serve the adult, he will be able to dedicate those remnants of the Jianju to the adult......"

Hearing this, Sun Chuanting couldn't help but sneer twice, he was really a shameless person! For the sake of his dog's life, he began to betray his master again!

Seeing Sun Chuanting like this, Bao Chengxian shut up in fright, looked at Sun Chuanting, and felt his bad prospects.

Sure enough, after seeing Sun Chuanting finish sneering, he suddenly shouted: "As the deputy general of the Ming Dynasty, you are deeply favored by the emperor, and you don't want to be loyal to the country to thank Jun'en, but you sell yourself as a thief, act as a tiger, and kill how many colleagues and the people of the Ming Dynasty?" ”

Bao Chengxian faced such a reprimand, he knew that it was useless to deny it, because this was an ironclad fact, he knew that if he wanted to live, he couldn't talk back, so he hurriedly supported his upper body with his hands, kowtowed again and again: "The villain should die, the villain should die, the villain is wrong, the villain is willing to atone for his sins, just ask the adult to be gracious, ask the adult to be gracious......"

"Humph!" Sun Chuanting listened impatiently to his plea for mercy, snorted heavily, and shouted again, "If this official spares you, how can those unjust souls who were killed by you explain?" Look, is there anyone here who is willing to spare you? ”

Hearing this, the surrounding Ming soldiers, including Sun Chuanting's personal guards, all shouted loudly and echoed: "Kill, kill, kill......"

No matter who it is, no matter how old or present, the hatred of rebellion is the same. For this Ming thief, they all wanted to cut him with a thousand knives, and the shouts of "kill" were full of hatred for Bao Chengxian's rebellion.

Bao Chengxian was silent, trying to raise his head, looking at the angry faces staring at him, feeling the resentment towards him, slowly, his body began to tremble, because he knew that he would not end well!

Sun Chuanting also disdained to talk to such a Ming rebellion, and immediately ordered to hold a memorial ceremony for the soul of the Ming Dynasty, and take this traitor and those captives to commemorate the Ming soldiers who died in this expedition.

With the transmission of this military order, tens of thousands of soldiers began to assemble, and the atmosphere suddenly became solemn. Sun Chuanting presided over the ceremony, and Bao Chengxian and other traitors were used to commemorate the martyrs of the Ming Dynasty.

During the whole ceremony, the Portuguese were watching, and the Indians were also watching, although many people did not understand what Sun Chuanting was saying in a low voice because of the language barrier, and did not understand what the Ming soldiers were shouting loudly, but they could all feel the solemnity of the ceremony, as well as the respect and appeasement of those who had died, and the hatred of those who were tied to the thieves.

For these, whether it is the Portuguese or the Indians, there are actually similarities. But obviously, this ceremony of the Ming army is more ceremonial and solemn than theirs. Just such a ritual invisibly greatly affected the Portuguese and Indians.

Subsequently, the Ming army was stationed in the camp built by the remnants of the Jianyu. For the Indians, of course, it will not be said that equality is relative, but compared with the means of Jianyu against the Indians, it seems that the Ming army is not knowing how many times better.

The Indians worked for the Ming army, and they could also get paid by the Ming army and get something that looked very good. This stimulated their motivation to work for the Ming army even more, especially the Indian who was given a robe, which was even more positive.

Sun Chuanting also saw it, so he appointed him as the head of the Indians and asked him to prevent the docking of the Ming army and the Indians. At the same time, he also ordered the officers and men of the army to teach these Indians the official language, as long as they are not literate, but just talking, they can still communicate quickly.

In this way, the Ming army began to rest here.

After waiting for some days, Anders also communicated with Sun Chuanting about when he would go south. But Sun Chuanting shirked it with enough reasons.

After resting for a while, with the cooperation of the Indians, an army was sent to pursue the remnants of Jianju, in fact, to expand the territory.

In addition, Sun Chuanting also inspected the steam ironclad warships that arrived with the army, and considered reporting the situation to the Ming Dynasty.

………………

In fact, regarding the parameters and performance of this steam ironclad battleship, the Jingshi side is also very concerned.

No, just in the Forbidden City of the Beijing Division, when a eunuch arrived at the gate of the palace, he turned around and signaled, let one of the attendants who followed him take a stack of pieces in his hand, and then strode into the main hall.

Seeing him enter, the palace maids and chamberlains saluted one after another, and it was obvious that the status of this eunuch should be very high.

The man who was supposed to sit on the throne to read the recitals did not sit there, but paced back and forth, looking impatient. Hearing the movement, he turned his head to look at it, and couldn't help but be a little surprised, so he asked: "Why bother Father-in-law Cao about sending the chapter?" ”

This father-in-law Cao is Cao Huachun, the eunuch who holds the seal of the celebrant supervisor. At this time, he was already very old, and basically except for some big things, he didn't care much about things, let alone such small things as personally sending the recital.

Hearing this, Cao Huachun's old face showed a smile and replied: "These are all major events reported in various places, and after the cabinet drafted the opinions, the celebrant also made instructions, and asked His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to look at it and see if it can be returned to the cabinet." ”

That's right, this person in the palace is Zhu Cihong, the prince of the Ming Dynasty. When he heard this, he said impatiently: "Let the cabinet and the celebrant take care of it, that's fine, you are all the ministers of your father's emperor, what else can you worry about." ”

Speaking of this, after a pause, he said with a hint of expectation on his face: "By the way, the expeditionary force going to the Americas, can there be news back, the parameters of the steam ironclad battleship, can it be sent back?" ”

Cao Huachun put all the pieces in his arms on the desk, and then replied respectfully: "According to the itinerary, it is estimated that it will only be a short time to reach the destination, and it will take time to send back the news!" ”

"That's true!" When Zhu Cihong heard this, he frowned and said, "I was expecting my father's mana to know these things in time. Unexpectedly, the father and emperor went out to conquer the Mughals, and he was not in Beijing. This steam ironclad battleship is waiting to be improved, and without the data of the experimental battleship, I don't know if it's like that in some places......"

Cao Huachun listened to these words, and thought to himself, sure enough, the rumored things are true: His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has no intention of these political affairs at all, and just wants to improve the steam ironclad battleship that His Majesty gave him and those new things.

Thinking so, he said to Zhu Cihong: "Your Highness, don't be impatient, this steam ironclad battleship will improve sooner or later." But these political affairs, according to His Majesty's explanation before leaving, His Royal Highness must achieve the purpose, and please ask Your Highness to ......"

"Alright, alright, Lone knows!" When Zhu Cihong heard this, he returned to his seat a little impatiently, and after sitting down, he immediately picked up the piece and hurriedly skimmed through it to finish the matter.

This time, Cao Huachun didn't speak again, anyway, he just went through the motions.

When the prince had read it all and put a bunch of concertans to him, he stepped forward and cleaned up all the concertans before bowing down to the prince and saying, "The old slave will retire!" ”

"Let's go, let's go!" When Zhu Cihong heard this, he waved his hand impatiently. But before he could finish speaking, he suddenly froze.

When Cao Huachun saw it, he immediately knew that something was wrong, so he hurriedly turned around to look at the situation, but saw that the queen didn't know when she was already standing behind her.

Seeing this, Cao Huachun was also slightly taken aback. But his qualifications were there, and he didn't do anything wrong, so he hurriedly saluted Queen Zhou, and then said: "These pieces are still waiting to be returned to the cabinet, and the slave and maid will retire!" ”

"Go ahead!" Queen Zhou said lightly, unable to see her joy, anger and sorrow.

Seeing this, Cao Huachun didn't stay long, but he knew in his heart that it should be the queen who also knew about the prince, and it was estimated that the prince would be disciplined.

But this matter is very sensitive. Besides, it is also a royal family matter, and as a royal slave, he can't take care of it, let alone dare to take care of it, so he can only do his own thing, so he just quit and left.

Zhu Cihong estimated that he also had points in his heart, and when he saw his mother coming, he still had such an expression, so he was a little weak-hearted, and hurriedly turned out of the case, and saluted Queen Zhou: "Why did the queen mother come here?" If there is something, let people spread it, and the sons should go to the queen mother to say goodbye! ”
