Zhang Siqi stood in the crowd, also full of joy.

After the army pacified the remnants of the two Luzon thieves, Liu Yi and others, who were in charge of the expedition, immediately went to Manila to meet with the king of Luzon, determined many terms, relaxed the control and suppression of the Han people, and the status of Chinese merchants rose unprecedentedly.

Prior to this, although Han merchants like the Zhang family and other Han merchants could control the economic lifeline of Luzon, just like the Three Buddhas, Manchurian, Chenla, Siam and other countries, the Han merchants were strong in economy and weak in politics.

The establishment of the Lan Fang Kingdom, in other words, was the founding of the country, but in fact, a group of more powerful Han businessmen built a large-scale company, and that is it.

Lan Fang was beaten under pressure full of thorns, and the alliance with the Three Buddhas and the Luzon Nations was good, but it could not fight against a group of pirates, and its national strength was like this, and its military capabilities and armaments were obvious.

Although the Han merchants in Luzon were not as vigilant as Manchurian, and even had their homes raided, imprisoned, and killed, under the threat of pirates, the nobles of Luzon became more and more unfriendly to the Han merchants, and their situation was also precarious.

This is also Zhang Siqi's several times to go to sea, looking for vitality, and also looking for a way out.

The history of the Han merchants in Nanyang for hundreds of years, full of blood and tears, Luzon and other countries slaughtered Chinese merchants many times, and Chinese merchants also migrated and fled many times, and finally survived by luck, of course, more important is to plan and layout in advance.

When the King of Qin arrived, the remnants of thousands of pirates instantly turned into birds and beasts, and collapsed directly, not daring to fight at all.

The battle on the beach of the Eastern Domain on that day had already broken the backbone of these Luzon thieves, making them like frightened birds, and they did not dare to confront the government army of the Eastern Domain.

Liu Dan also fled in a hurry, there were hundreds of cronies around him at the beginning, and later the Han merchants everywhere also mobilized, formed a volunteer regiment to practice chasing and suppressing pirates, the local residents and pirates are inextricably linked, if there is no Han people to help, the government army wants to hunt down pirates among more than 100,000 people is also quite difficult, when the Han merchants make a move, they originally have strong financial resources, the Han people in Luzon are not a lot, accounting for about thirty percent of its entire population, this force is quite considerable, after the Han merchants shot, The escaped pirates and the natives who colluded with them were discovered and arrested one after another, and after Liu Dan was arrested, everyone was jubilant, and the news spread throughout Luzon and Nanyang territory one after another, and everyone felt happy and relaxed.

Yan Qi is fond of killing, Liu Dan is not much better, the Luzon thieves composed of these two people are the most ferocious, even if it is the Pu Xingfeng Division, its political connotation is stronger, its actions are more targeted, and the military law is also stricter, and there will be no random killing and torture.

Kang Tianqi mainly guarded the Wa Kingdom, and he hoped that the sea would be calm, and the early years of fighting and killing had long since disappeared.

Wang Zhi has always had some incense feelings for the Han merchants on the side of the Great Wei Dynasty, in fact, the Han merchants of Siam, Zhenla and Luzon have always had some contact with Wang Zhi, and the relationship between the two sides is not bad.

In fact, the pirate dispute, whether it is the Great Wei Dynasty or the late Ming Dynasty in history, has the inextricable connection between the Han pirates and overseas Han merchants, and after the Zheng family was wiped out by the Dutch and the Qing court, the Han people's road to sea power was completely cut off, and then the sea gave up people.

Zhang Siqi stood with many children of the Han merchant families in Luzon, and many young Han merchant children had signed up to join the government army, but not many were approved.

Liu Yi had already met a number of leaders of the Han merchant family, and the Han merchants and their children were generally well-educated and the best candidates to control Luzon for the shogunate, and there was no need to send them to the sea to fight for their lives.

Controlling Luzon requires the full cooperation of the Han merchant family, and many young and middle-aged Han merchant children should become officials of this land and work with the government army to really eat Luzon.

"How to hang them one by one, it's so troublesome, it's not as good as the cool and sharp cut directly with a big knife." Zhang Siqi has a government army officer next to him, short and strong, with knotted muscles, as if he wants to break the military robe, this person has a strong accent of a northwestern passerby, fortunately, Zhang Siqi has dealt with people from all over the country, unlike the older generation of Han businessmen in Fujian and Guangdong, in addition to speaking the hometown dialect, it is also quite difficult to listen to foreign officials.

At that moment, Zhang Siqi clenched his fists and smiled, and said to the northwest military attaché: "It is to deter. The old man doesn't know that the local natives are surprisingly lazy, whether it is working, trading, farming, or doing anything. He is also jealous of the wealth of our Han people, and has become more and more restless over the years. In the past ten years, the two thieves in Luzon have been rampant, slaughtering our Han people many times, and the Wei merchant ships at sea are killing the whole ship, and they will not let go of any of them, which is the local public opinion of Luzon. ”

"I see...... Yao Pingzhong also hugged a fist and said, "It's better to build a view of Beijing." ”

Zhang Siqi smiled slightly and said: "That's too ugly, I'm afraid that public opinion won't go down for decades." Now the group of thieves and the natives who colluded with the group of thieves are hanged along the island, and the corpses have not been taken for many years, and there is a sense of deterrence, and there is no need to make it too ugly. ”

Chong Ji on the side nodded and said: "It should be the result of the general of the government army and the local Han merchant leaders after the meeting, let's just watch from the sidelines, there is no need to point fingers." ”

Zhang Siqi also saw at this time that the two young military attachés in front of him must have extraordinary backgrounds, and they were not ordinary officers in the government army.

"I am not qualified to participate in the battle of the Japanese people." Zhang Siqi said with a little regret: "In fact, I have been to Hirado and Kyoto many times since I was a teenager, and I am familiar with the situation of the Japanese country, but I have just entered the martial arts hall, and it will take at least half a year to study, and then I can go on the ship. ”

"Brother is familiar with the Japanese country, do you know how the Japanese army is?"

Zhang Siqi pondered for a moment and said, "I want to elaborate on this, please be more patient." The situation in the southeastern part of the Great Wei Dynasty and the Nanyang countries was similar to that of Luzon. Han merchants emigrated overseas from the Tang Dynasty, and gradually became popular because of their diligence and mutual popularity. Whether it is Luzon or Manchurian, Srivijaya, as well as the Han merchants self-reliant Lanfang and other countries, or Siam Chenla and other countries, the Han people account for half or even more, less is about three or four percent, the Han merchants all act in groups, control the trade of various countries to make profits, once the army is stationed, such as Luzon here to defeat Yan Qi and Liu Dan, it is inevitable that their country will fall into the bag. Once the Pu Xingfeng is defeated and Malacca is mastered, the South Seas will be turned into an inner lake, and foreign enemies will not be allowed to enter, more than ten or twenty countries, hundreds of millions of people, all of which are in the hands of the shogunate of the king of Qin, this is an inevitable thing, and it is also the trend of the times, the mandate of heaven is so, and manpower cannot resist it. Hundreds of years of immigration, trade, and merchant ships have come and gone, and the situation now is different from that of hundreds of years ago. Fortunately, His Royal Highness the King of Qin will take it, and the decisive battle with Pu Xingfeng is not only the war of the Great Wei to resist foreign enemies, but also the best way to control the maritime countries, feed the Great Wei through trade, and master all places. Now not only Lanfang is shipbuilding, but also Han businessmen from Luzon and other countries are also investing in shipbuilding, manpower and material resources will quickly keep up, within a year or two, as long as Pu Xingfeng is wiped out, His Royal Highness the King of Qin is of course the lord of the sea, and the Han merchant families around my country will have peace of mind from now on. ”

Chongji and Yao Pingzhong both nodded, they probably understood the situation at sea, the Nanyang countries were all controlled by the Han Shang family, as long as Pu Xingfeng was defeated, the entire Nanyang was controlled by the shogunate, and the countries were subordinated to submission, and the land area was less than that of the Great Wei, but the population was not under the Great Wei, and the combined trade scale of the countries was by no means under the Great Wei.

"Unlike the nations, it is the Wa Kingdom." Zhang Siqi continued: "The Wa Kingdom learned from the Tang Dynasty in China, but it got its form but not its god, its country is the emperor as the respect, the general is in power, the daimyo do his own thing, the samurai are the backbone, the power of the merchant is not small but quite obscure, the most important thing is that its Shinto is one, self-contained. It was difficult for the Wei people to integrate into the local area, and the situation of isolation and exclusion was much stricter than that of the Nanyang countries. Therefore, most of the Han people are in Hirado, sheltered by Kang Tianqi, and in the rest of the places, there is no one Han in ten thousand, and it is not difficult to make them submit to the battle of the Japanese, and if they want to destroy their country, they will need at least a million troops to conquer for 20 years, and the cost is too great to outweigh the losses. Rather, it is enough to defeat the central army, make its generals lose their authority, and make their daimyo go their own way, and control their kingdoms through commerce. ”

After Zhang Siqi finished speaking, he hugged his fists again, and said with a slightly apologetic smile: "The subordinates are soft-spoken, and they talk about military and political affairs, please forgive the two of you." ”

Yao Pingzhong grinned and said: "If it weren't for listening to Brother Zhang's words, we would still be dreaming, let's thank Brother Zhang, when we go to sea, we really have a long insight." ”

Tane Ji also said: "Thinking about these things, everyone overseas has already reported to the upper echelons?" ”

"Yes," Zhang Siqi said, "The conquest fleet is gradually gathering more than a hundred warships here in Luzon, commanded by General Liu, and we have already talked about it. As for the shogunate, the patriarchs of each family also wrote a note and reported it to His Royal Highness the King of Qin. ”

Tane Ji nodded slightly and said, "If that's the case, I'll be much more relieved." ”

There is no lack of regret in words, as a martial artist, of course, he hopes to participate in a war to destroy the country, but now it seems that it is unlikely.

Even so, being able to see the government army rampant on the sea and controlling the countries on the sea can still make Chongji and Yao Pingzhong excited.

"Just forget it." Yao Pingzhong turned his head to Chong Ji and said: "In the battle of Pu Xingfeng, it is best for us to be among the troops who board the boat and jump the gang." ”

"This bureaucrat covets the Great Wei, and is the vanguard of the heavens to attack my Great Wei, and he is extremely vicious, and it is really a great crime." Chong Ji said calmly: "It should be punished, and when the time comes, just like this Liu Dan in front of you, you will be punished by the law, and you will enjoy the blessings of peace in the universe." ”

Many of the Luzon Hanmin present heard it, and their expressions moved slightly, and they all bowed their hands to the seeds, and their faces showed a genuine touched look.
