Chapter 609: News from Japan
According to Wang Wenyan's idea, he knocked Zhu Youzhen unconscious first, and then took him away, but before he could take action, the door of the secret room was kicked open from the outside.
Wang Wenyan looked at it in amazement, but saw a familiar person with a group of Central Plains people breaking in, although these people were all dressed in black and did not wear military uniforms, they could still recognize at a glance that they were all Ming soldiers.
The first person was naturally Li Chaoran's loyal servant Li Zhong.
The sea area of the naval battle was not far from the coast, and Ye Xun believed that Wang Wenyan must have gotten the news, so in order to prevent him from slipping away again, he asked Li Zhong to sneak ashore with a team of his cronies and guards to arrest people.
Li Zhong can be said to have come at the right time, and there are many guards in Wang Wenyan's manor, but these guards are simply not worth mentioning to the experienced guards.
After easily solving the guards, he soon touched Wang Wenyan's secret room silently.
The moment he saw the Ming army, Zhu Youzhen also completely relaxed, and without waiting for Wang Wenyan to say anything, he took the initiative to say: "You are here to find this king, right?" Where is Grandpa Ye? Take this king to him."
Seeing this, Wang Wenyan couldn't help but sigh, this king of faith is naïve enough, do you think Ye Xun will let you return to the capital alive?
Li Zhong heard Zhu Youzhen report his home, his face couldn't help flashing with surprise, he turned his head, and was just about to speak to the leader of the Ming army beside him, when he suddenly felt that there was something more in his hand, and looked down, but saw that he didn't know who had stuffed a short knife in his hand.
Subconsciously grasped the hilt of the knife and asked the leader of the Ming army beside him, "What does this mean?" ...”
Before the words fell, I felt that someone suddenly pushed my back vigorously.
Li Zhong didn't know martial arts, he was holding a knife in his hand, his head was still twisted behind him, but his body had been vigorously pushed towards Zhu Youzhen.
"Ahh You..."
Zhu Youzhen's screams suddenly woke up Li Zhong, things happened too fast, if you don't pay attention, no matter how you look at it, Li Zhong suddenly pulled out a knife and stabbed Zhu Youzhen.
"Ahh
With Zhu Youzhen's scream, Li Zhong also let go of the short knife in his hand with a scream, staring blankly at the blood stains under his hands, his head was like paste for a while, and he didn't understand what had just happened.
"Your Highness! ...”
Wang Wenyan screamed and pounced on Zhu Youzhen, and at this moment, Zhu Youzhen was also on his deathbed, and the stab was very accurate, hitting him in the heart.
Looking at Wang Wenyan, whose face was full of tears, his lips moved, as if he wanted to say something, but in the end he didn't say a word, his eyes closed, and he died.
The leader of the Ming army turned his head and nodded to his subordinates beside him, and then pounced on two Ming troops, one of whom wiped Li Zhong's neck first, and the other knocked Wang Wenyan unconscious, and then tied Wang Wenyan firmly and threw him on the ground.
The soldiers carefully investigated the secret room, took all the letters and other things away, and then poured fire oil on the secret room, Wang Wenyan and the two corpses, and finally threw the candle to the ground, and everyone quickly left, and soon disappeared into the vast night.
Li Zhong is a traitor seeking glory, Wang Wenwan and Zhu Youzhen are both mortal people, these do not need Ye Xun's personal instructions, since the leader of the Ming army who participated in the operation this time is Ye Xun's guard, he naturally knows what to do.
Others said that Zhu Youzhen would never let him see Ye Xun alive, because that would only make Ye Xun embarrassed.
If Zhu Youzhen knew underground, he could only blame himself for being reincarnated in the wrong person.
Before the Spanish captain and his troops arrived at the manor, they had already seen the raging fire, and when they rushed into the manor, they found that except for a corpse, there was no more than half a figure.
Ye Xun never slept, and Zhu Youzhen's matter has always been like a stone in his heart.
Ye Xun never felt that he was a cruel person, but the political struggle has always been like this, either you die or I live, in the past, because of kindness, he has added too much blockage to himself, so this time he will not be merciful anymore no matter what.
solved the Xingming Society of Zhu Youzhen and Wang Wenyan, and by the way, the Spaniards who invaded Luzon were also cleaned up, and Ye Xun's trip can be regarded as a complete merit.
The reconstruction of Luzon is Suleiman's own business, Ye Xun can't help anything, and it's not something that can be completed in a while, it's time to return after arranging, it's too long to leave Middle-earth, and there are still many things that Ye Xun is worried about.
Before the fleet could reach the dock, a Spanish speedboat flying a white flag approached quickly, but it was Captain Jack himself.
I didn't find the person Ye Xun wanted to arrest last night, and my intuition told Jack that Ye Xun sent someone to finish the matter, in this case, sooner or later he would surrender, so it would be better to do it simply.
Here, Ye Xun ordered James to also send someone to find the few escaped battleships.
As the Ming warships slowly approached, the aborigines who had been released on the dock also boiled, while the Spanish soldiers honestly stayed in the barracks and waited for the Ming army to surrender.
Along the way, the Spanish army was invincible, but they never expected to sink in the sand.
No one wants to surrender, but without the warship, they are like duckweed without roots, and they will not be able to float for long.
Strictly speaking, Ye Xun's victory was very lucky, if the Spaniards were allowed to gain a foothold in Luzon, James, who was respected as a governor, would not have personally gone into battle, and if it weren't for James's excessive arrogance, Ye Xun would not have been so easy to win.
I'm afraid this is the cause and effect of heaven!
Suleiman looked at his subjects, tears flowed unconsciously, if it weren't for the sudden appearance of the Ming army, I'm afraid that this day would not know when it would come, right?
Next, Ye Xun officially held a surrender ceremony on the Ye Gong No. 1 treasure ship, and when Ye Xun received the sword symbolizing power from James, the warships suddenly resounded with a sky-shattering salute.
After the salute, not only the indigenous people on land, but also the officers and men on the ships also burst into cheers, and the victory of the war indicated that they could also go home.
By noon, several Spanish warships that had escaped also returned to port.
Just like Ye Xun thought, without the logistics and supplies on land, they couldn't escape far at all.
Disarmed and imprisoned all Spaniards, by this time any protests by James and others were useless.
There are too many things to do in the future, and Ye Xun doesn't have time to ask, but he still has to attend the thank-you banquet held by Suleiman for him.
Before attending the banquet, He Shuo, an overseas Chinese who had been following Suleiman, was the first to find Ye Xun.
In fact, even if he didn't come, Ye Xun also wanted to find him, Luzon, as an important hub of communication between the East and the West, must be absolutely controlled under the Ming Dynasty, but with the indigenous power of Luzon alone, it is obviously impossible to resist the West's continuous eastward expansion.
Ye Xun knew this history, and the Spaniards would soon be defeated by the British, which meant that a greater crisis in Luzon was still to come.
In order to avoid a recurrence of this incident, it is necessary to station an army here...
