Chapter 788: Nanyang Crisis 2

"I don't want to mind your business, if you want to take care of it, just take care of it, don't you have more than 900 ships in your hands? Add to that the fact that you already have more than 1,200 ships, and you have built more than 1,500 of your own ships, right?

Although I estimate that there are more than 500 merchant ships and transport ships, but if you renovate and add a few cannons, and fill in a little soldier, it is a warship, even if it is not a warship, it is also an armed merchant ship, but the Dutch only have a dozen warships, and more than 20 armed merchant ships dare to rule the entire South Seas, even if it is not ruled by one family, it also rules a considerable amount of territory, your population is nearly 5 million, although the Han population is only more than 600,000, and there are hundreds of thousands of Nanyang indigenous mixed-race Han people. If you add in the Japanese thugs and sailors you used to have in Japan, your strength is quite huge.

It is still not a loss to go to Nanyang to help those Nanyang Han people in part of it. ”

Zheng Keshuang smiled: "Your Majesty, you drove us away at the beginning, and now you let us come back, this is a bit bad, can you rest assured that we will come back?" ”

"There's nothing to worry about, anyway, I don't want to dye the guide ocean for the time being, and I still have a lot of things on land." Zhang Qiang didn't have any shame, looked at Zheng Keshuang and said.

Zheng Keshuang said cautiously: "Then, we sent someone back, don't blame us." ”

"I don't blame you, I don't blame you, you helped us drag down the Taixi people, and we are grateful, so how about raising the price of each ton of iron ore to you a dollar Huaxia Yuan? Of course we want your guano, and we wish we could get more of your guano. ”

"Then thank Your Majesty, we will immediately go back and organize manpower to establish a transshipment base in Puerto Princesa, so that our supplies can be transferred from Puerto Puerto to the Kingdom of China very quickly, so that our speed will be increased by at least one-fifth, we can only come once in four months, so that we can come once in three months, and once in three months will save us a lot of time.

It's also much safer on the road. ”

"That's your business, I don't care, I hope that next time you can bring more goods to trade with us, if you can establish a transshipment base, then you can also bring more Nanyang goods, we are also happy."

"Yes, yes, we have already discussed, and if Your Majesty agrees to us, we will send at least a hundred merchant ships and eighty warships to Palawan to contain the movements of the Dutch." Zheng Keshuang said.

"Well, that's great, but do you want to have a port in Southeast Asia?" Zhang Qiang asked.

"Have a port in Southeast Asia?"

"Your Majesty, is this true?"

"Do you really want us to have a port in Southeast Asia?"

"Yes, Cambodia, formerly Chenla, you can have a port here, and trade with the people here, and allow your sailors to be stationed here, but you must provide us with some convenience, such as sending some of your troops and horses to help us fight, and if you can take a port in Siam and hold it, we can also recognize it as your territory.

But apart from that port, you can't go any further inland, and allow our troops and horses to pass through or temporarily station there, and become our forward base, the rest is not your business. ”

Zhou Congee glanced at Zhang Qiang with disdain, this His Majesty the King, and wanted to play his game against Lu State, let Lu State go to fight Japan, as a result, Hong Chengchou of Lu State died, and his son the third prince finally won the victory, this process is a bit tortuous, but the third prince still fully seized the power of Lu State with his support, and finally changed back to the Ryukyu Kingdom, and now he is still resisting the invasion of Jeju Island by the Qing Dynasty, and also helping the Huaxia Kingdom to defend half of the territory of China Island, Now he had sent Gu Yuesheng to urge the third prince to attack the Japanese again.

It's as if he's a man who always likes to borrow someone else's hand to destroy his opponents.

Zheng Keshuang is not a young and vigorous master who is good at fooling, at least he is better than the third prince, it is not easy to fool, mainly because the third prince is limited to the domestic conspiracy estimation struggle, and belongs to the expert in internal struggles, his old son Hong Chengchou is such a person, he wants Hong Chengchou to fight tactical battles, maybe he is defeated, he wants him to plan the overall situation, he did well in the Ming and Qing Dynasty, but it is also very limited, but the Zheng family, that is a person who crisscrosses the sea, has seen more of the world.

Zheng Keshuang has been in charge of the Zheng family's plan for the ore water changer and population slaves of the Huaxia Kingdom, and he has been training for two years, and he will not agree to Zhang Qiang at once.

"Your Majesty, can I go back and talk to my father and brothers?"

"You know I'm just a member of the Zheng family, not even a son."

The son of the Zheng family is equivalent to the crown prince or the crown prince, and Zheng Keshuang belongs to the youngest one, and there are many brothers and sisters on it, he is just an errand runner in the Zheng family, so he makes such a cautious suggestion can be seen as he can't be the master, and it can also be seen as he is cautious, hoping to do things without offending others.

Zhang Qiang and Zhou Congee understood him very well.

So Zheng Keshuang left, taking the goods he bought from the Huaxia Kingdom, raw silk, gunpowder, cannons, tea, and all kinds of supplies.

Zhou Congee looked at Zhang Qiang and said, "Your Majesty, do you mean to let the Zheng family help Li Yuanyin and Tian Xian?"

Zhang Qiang nodded, "Yes, I am not going to move the troops in Southeast Asia, but I have to lay off some troops, so that a large number of militias can be restored to the people, and they will be turned into ordinary people on the spot.

If we reduce some troops, they will feel that there is no hope here, and they can only be honest people, honest as our Han people, honest as ordinary people, and wait to be naturalized. We take time to slowly digest their national character.

We have done a good job in China, the core area has been basically stabilized, at least let people stay away from the war, the next step is to put Yunnan Guizhou into the core area, Yunnan Prefecture has entered the core area of construction, speed up the pace of our reunification, this is what we have to do.

Although we have launched several offensive plans against Shaanxi and Gansu, they have been delayed for various reasons, and now we have only advanced less than 100 kilometers in the Shaanxi and Gansu areas, and we have not even touched the doors of other people's homes, and Shang Kexi has turned over there again, and I will transfer some of Ma Sanli and Ma Han's troops to Shaanxi and Gansu to deal with Shang Kexi and Wu Sangui. ”

Zhou Congee asked, "What about the Dajin Kingdom?" Aren't you going to use them to contain and drag down the Qing Kingdom? ”
