After receiving the task of persuading the Nguyen clan in Quang Nam to surrender, Shi Weila did not immediately go to Quang Nam, he first borrowed Zhu Ci Jiong's special line for the southeast governor Nan Ju Yi to send a telegram, borrowed a few large steamers from him, and then sent a telegram to his subordinates in Macao, gathered all the defenders, guards, personal guards, and retinues, and rushed to Haiphong Port by steamer to wait for his order.

Although he is not a great man in the Ming Empire, but in Portugal, he is now one of the best people, and he made a special trip to "visit" Portuguese merchants, and this score is naturally to be full.

He also sent a special cronie to the port of Haiphong on a fast horse, and then took a fast boat to inform Roland: Count Ben is coming, hurry up and get ready to meet him.

After doing all this, he Shi Shiran beat the horse and went to Haiphong Port, of course, this time he didn't have to beat the horse and gallop wildly, there is no need, the score is not as fast as possible, two days late, but it can show that he is a big man.

When he arrived at Haiphong Port slowly, it was already three days later, at this time, the people of Macao also arrived, and the cronies who went to inform Roland had also returned, so he borrowed ten ordinary fortune ships with the Beiyang Fleet without flywheels, and took two or three thousand men to Guangnan, of course, he did not play the flag of the Ming Empire, but the flag of his own family.

At this time, the port of Hoi An in Quang Nam was already fluttering with colorful flags, and the people were full of voices, and the Portuguese governor of Macau, Count Svera, wanted to come to Hoi An in person, which was a big event, not only the Portuguese businessman Roland came, but even the head of the Quang Nam Nguyen family, Nguyen Phuc Lan, came.

In other words, no matter how big the face of a Portuguese governor is, Nguyen Phuc Lan, as the king of Quang Nam, doesn't have to greet him in person, right? If Schwila was just a governor, he naturally didn't have to run to greet him personally, but the problem was that Schvera was not only a governor but also a very big businessman, and most of the goods in Quang Nam were sold to all parts of the South Seas and even to Europe by the Portuguese merchant Roland, and Roland had a lot of business to rely on Schvera, without Schvera's greeting, Goa, Ceylon, and even Dongfan, Luzon, who knew him Roland.

That is to say, Quang Nam's foreign trade mainly depends on Roland, but Roland depends on Svera, Svera is equivalent to his backer, Nguyen Phuc Lan, he dare not come to greet him!

Roland and Nguyen Phuc Lan waited for a long time, and the Governor's fleet finally arrived, but when they were about to go up to meet them, it was not the Governor who disembarked first, but a group of guards.

Shi Weila's routines were all learned from Zhu Cijiong, first a team of guards ran down, and then a team of entourage ran down, more than 2,000 people, and he took a few cronies in charge to get off the boat.

This move really frightened Roland and Nguyen Phuc Lan, although Nguyen Phuc Lan had twenty or thirty thousand troops under him, but it was used to defend various important places, and his own personal guards were only a few hundred, and there were so many Schwilla there; Not to mention Roland, his subordinates are only one or two hundred in total, which is not at the same level as Schvera.

Svera's status in the hearts of the two suddenly rose a lot, and the two of them were as attentive as they were, as if they were Svera's subordinates.

After enjoying a lot of praise, Schvera finally remembered what was going on, he said solemnly: "Roland, I have something very important to talk to you about, find a place, I'll tell you alone." “

Roland saw Svera's expression, naturally he didn't dare to slack off, he hurriedly discussed a few words with Ruan Fulan, and then asked Svera to get into his carriage, and then the whole team set off for Hoi An City.

When Schvera saw Roland getting into the carriage, he immediately pointed to the coachman in front of him and asked, "Is it reliable?" “

Roland nodded hurriedly and said, "Don't worry, Lord Governor, it's an entourage that has been with me for many years, no problem." “

Schwila nodded and asked coldly, "Do you know why I came here?" “

How could Roland know, he shook his head and asked nervously, "What is the reason why the Governor came here?" “

Schvera didn't answer, but said coldly: "You got into a big accident, do you know?" “

Roland's frightened face changed, and he stammered, "Lord Governor, are you joking?" I didn't do anything! “

Schwila snorted and asked coldly, "The Ming Empire is an ally of our Portugal, do you know?" “

Roland nodded hurriedly and said, "I know, I didn't offend the Ming Empire!" “

Shi Weila sneered and said sternly: "Not yet, don't you know that the Ming Empire wants the Quang Nam Nguyen clan to surrender?" Why do you still want to help them, it doesn't matter if you look for death, don't bother me, don't bother us all of Portugal! “

Roland's eyes were obviously flustered, and he said hesitantly: "I didn't directly conflict with the Ming Empire, I just helped the Ruan clan cast some artillery and build a few fortresses." “

Schvera couldn't help but say, and immediately ordered: "Stop immediately, don't help them cast cannons anymore, don't help them build fortresses anymore." “

Roland was a little embarrassed and said, "They bid very high. “

Schwila hated that iron could not be made of steel and said: "How much can they pay, 100,000 taels, 1 million taels?" Do you have the life to spend this money when you earn this money, once the Ming Empire fights, I can't save you. “

Roland said unwillingly: "Lord Governor, what you do is a big business, tens of millions of taels is nothing, it is not easy for us to make such a little money." “

Shi Weila shook his head and sighed: "That's it, I just want to set up a company, you pay one million taels, I will give you one percent of the shares, and after the Ming Dynasty dominates the Southeast Peninsula, you will be the person in charge here, and you will make more money than now, Ruan's You don't want to help, stop everything immediately." “

When Roland heard this, he said excitedly: "Really, Lord Governor, well, I will listen to you!" “

Seeing that Roland was convinced, Schvila immediately entered the next link, and he asked kindly: "You should have a good relationship with Ruan Fulan, do you know why he refuses to surrender?" “

Roland immediately nodded and said, "I know this, he is afraid that Li Shenzong will trouble him afterwards." “

Sure enough, Schvila said mysteriously: "He doesn't have to worry about this, wait for you to bring him to me." “

Roland didn't know what Svera meant, but since he had decided to follow Svera, he naturally wouldn't object, and as soon as the team arrived at the resting point in Hoi An City, he hurriedly led Svera into a luxurious room, and then he went out to bring Nguyen Phuc Lan over.

Ruan Fulan didn't know that these two people had decided to sell him, and he said politely: "Lord Governor, I don't know what to tell when you come to Ruan?" “

Shi Vera did not answer, but with a wave of his hand, he drove out Roland and the translator who followed him, and then said directly in Chinese: "Lord Ruan, you don't dare to give orders, I suggest that you go to Thang Long City immediately to ask for surrender, otherwise, I'm afraid it will be too late." “

When Ruan Fulan heard this, his eyes were about to bulge out, it was really unheard of for a foreigner to speak Chinese so well, and more importantly, what Shi Vera said really startled him.

He still thinks that Schwila is his big backer, so he didn't lie, but sighed: "Alas, it's not that I don't want to surrender, but I don't dare, if I surrender, when Daming withdraws, I will definitely lose my life, now rely on the help of you and Lord Roland, cast more artillery, repair more fortresses, maybe you can block Daming's attack, Daming can't die here, at most they will withdraw after a few months, and then I'll be fine." “

Shi Vera sneered: "Blocking the attack of the Ming Empire, you are too naïve, how many people are there here, have the Zheng family's 100,000 troops blocked the attack of the Ming Empire?" “

Ruan Fulan gritted his teeth and said, "I have a lot of artillery, as well as a fortress. “

Shi Weila continued to sneer: "Artillery, doesn't the Zheng clan have it?" They still used the Dutchman's cannon, and as a result? Fortress, can the fortress you build compare to the Dutch? Do you know the Dutchman's Geranza Castle, the Ming Empire took it in one day! “

When Ruan Fulan heard this, he was so frightened that he broke out in a cold sweat, and he asked in a panic, "What should I do then?" Your Excellency, please save me! “

Shi Weila snorted coldly: "With the enemy of the Ming Empire, we in Portugal don't have this ability, but before I came, I asked you for a position from His Majesty the Emperor of the Ming Empire, the hereditary commander, and the commander of the right army of the Annan Army, in the future, the Annan Army will be directly dispatched by the Ming Army, and Li Shenzong can't control it, you should rest assured, this is your last chance, if you don't surrender, I can't save you." “

The last backer was gone, Ruan Fulan was completely desperate, he struggled for a while, and finally said dejectedly: "Okay, I surrender, tomorrow I will lead the army to Thang Long City to surrender." “
