Whether it is the Dutch, the Spanish, or the Portuguese, they are all outsiders, they are Xiyi, and after coming to the South Seas, they are all here to rule the locals and loot the locals. This is an ironclad fact, as long as you are not blind, you can see it clearly.
As for the indigenous chiefs, of course, they don't like Xiyi either. However, if it is ruled by Xiyi, at least under the rule of Xiyi, they still have leaders to be leaders. However, when the Ming Kingdom came, it would come to seal the vassal king, and in the future, it would no longer be their own territory, but the territory of the Ming vassal king, which was naturally more opposed to the establishment of the governor in Xiyi.
Some indigenous leaders didn't believe Liu Xiang's lobbying at first, but when they saw that the local natives were either killed by the Ming army or taken to mine and build roads. The only ones who had a good life were only a few who were good to Ming before.
However, in the past, who knew that the Ming Dynasty would make decisions for these overseas Ming people? Therefore, who would have a good impression of these Akito who have such a strong earning power? No matter how much, in short, they have more or less bullied the Ming people, so these indigenous leaders are afraid of being ruled by the Ming army.
Liu Xiang understands these situations very well. He also knew that the natives had chosen to cooperate with the Dutch, and that was a last resort. For them, it's also a pack of wolves that eat people. If you run to Batavia to take an oath, who knows if these Xiyi will suddenly attack?
Among the indigenous chiefs, Xiyi also has little credibility to speak of. Because when they first came to Nanyang, they also talked all kinds of things, smiled in front of them, and turned their heads to be a knife. It's only now that under the premise of the common enemy of the Ming Kingdom, will they cooperate with these Xiyi. If there is no great enemy of the Ming Kingdom, they will also be hostile to each other.
Thinking about this, Liu Xiang was helpless in his heart, so he could only agree: "As long as the Governor can lead us to defeat the imperial court sailors and drive the officials and soldiers back, everything will be easy to say!" ”
When he said this, he had already made up his mind that he wanted those indigenous chiefs to shed some blood, but he could not let the landlord alone pay for supplies.
After agreeing on the date, Liu Xiang was also in a hurry to go back, so he said goodbye directly, wanting to go back immediately to arrange this matter. If he doesn't defeat the imperial sailors for a day, he will have no end in his heart, especially when there are more and more sail warships of the imperial court sailors.
Kun didn't stop him, but when Liu Xiang walked a few steps, as if he remembered something, he stopped Liu Xiang again and said, "Liu Da is in charge, I forgot to say one thing." ”
When Liu Xiang heard this, he turned around, looked at him a little puzzled, and asked, "I don't know if the Governor has anything else to explain?" ”
"So, I just thought about it." Kun replied as if he had just remembered, "You are right, time can't be delayed, if it drags on for a long time, the strength of the Ming Kingdom will increase by one point." In this way, when the oath is made, I will go over in person, and the leaders of other places hope to go over in person, so that they can make decisions on the spot, so as not to make the decisions of those who go, toss back and forth, waste time, and also give the Ming Kingdom a chance to gather strength! How's it going, you see? ”
When Liu Xiang heard this, he hurriedly nodded and said, "Your Excellency the Governor is wise, this is the best!" I'll try to convince them! ”
Not long after, on the dock, watching Liu Xiang's boat leave in a hurry, Anthony couldn't help it, and asked Kun: "Lord Governor, why do you want to accommodate these Orientals?" Without our fleet, it is simply impossible for them to compete with the Ming State Naval Division. We said in Batavia, do they have a choice? ”
In his opinion, the address of this alliance should be decided by the Dutch, because they have the biggest fist!
When Kun heard this, he retracted his gaze, looked at Anthony and said with a smile: "If it is settled in Batavia, will the king of those indigenous monkeys come?" For us, there is a powerful fleet, and everywhere it is the same. As long as those kings go to Temasek, as soon as our fleet arrives, we will be able to wipe them all out, pinch their kings in our hands, and defeat the Ming Kingdom, and this Nanyang will be easily controlled in our hands! ”
As soon as he heard this, Anthony couldn't help but suddenly realize, and hurriedly nodded: "It's still the Governor who is wise!" In this way, for our Dutch East India Company, it is the most convenient and quick to grasp the entire South Seas! ”
Kun was also proud, turned around and walked to the carriage that stopped not far away, and at the same time said: "This Liu Xiang is a good candidate for running errands." These Orientals know Orientals, and if he comes forward and swears in Temasek, I believe he will not let me down! ”
The two got into the car while talking, and when they drove out of the dock, they saw the figure of the Ming man who was busy, and Anthony said a little angrily: "These Ming people, the speed of construction is obviously slower than before, and those Liu Xiang's subordinates don't know what they are eating, do they really think we are easy to deceive?" ”
When Kun heard this, he didn't care, and closed his eyes, as if to close his eyes to recuperate, but at the same time he replied: "It doesn't matter, I used to think that I would kill them when they finished building." But our strategy has changed, so let them be! Let them be repaired! ”
"Huh?" Anthony was a little puzzled and asked suspiciously, "How can this be?" ”
Kun didn't open his eyes, and replied lightly: "When the Ming Kingdom is defeated, at least on the Luzon side, we can capture more Ming people." When the time comes, I have an idea, maybe we should rebuild Batavia with a more suitable location! ”
Batavia is indeed a bit off the beaten track for the entire South Seas. In the past, there was no way, it was too late. The Portuguese and Spaniards, who came first, had taken advantage of the good places, but now, now that they can control the whole of the South Seas, the location of Batavia is remote, or it is time to change places.
Thinking so, Anthony quickly nodded and agreed: "The Governor is right, it's really time to change places. However, these Ming people can't let them go, let them go to a new place to continue their cultivation until they die! ”
"Well, that's for sure!" Kun said lightly, and continued to close his eyes to recuperate, but in his mind, he was already planning what was the most suitable place to build a new Batavia!
Besides, Liu Xiang rushed back to Temasek from Batavia, and then immediately gathered his men, explained the situation, and then urged his men to go to various places to invite the indigenous leaders.
When Liang Xiaozhen, the third master, heard this, she immediately reported the news through the chat group.
When Sun Chuanting, the temporary acting governor of Zhejiang, Fujian and Guangdong provinces, heard this, he immediately suggested to Emperor Chongzhen: "Your Majesty, the minister thinks that he will take this opportunity to wave his army and go straight to Temasek and exterminate the Nanyang thieves in one fell swoop!" ”
As long as these people who are against the Ming can be annihilated, the entire Nanyang will be the Ming Dynasty, and those Ming people who have been plundered can also be rescued, so his temporary hat can be removed.
When Emperor Chongzhen heard this, he was also a little helpless, he didn't want to fight a decisive battle so early. As long as the days drag on a little longer, the strength of the Ming Dynasty in Nanyang will be one more point. Sometimes, though, it doesn't work out as you wish. Therefore, after a moment of silence, he issued an order: "Okay, order the sailors from all over the country to assemble in Luzon!" ”
The number of sailors on Luzon's side is only a part of the surface. With the strength of the Ming Dynasty and Emperor Chongzhen's current attitude towards the ocean, he has been preparing for the summoning of Sun Chuanting since last year, how can he only have the strength of the water division in Luzon.
Emperor Chongzhen's decree was struck, and suddenly, all parts of the country immediately took action.
The naval warships of Fujian, either one or two, or one or two teams, began to assemble at Taiping Port in Fuzhou. In just a few days, there were seventy or eighty warships of various colors in Taiping Harbor.
At the same time, Governor Sun Chuanting left Fuzhou and rode his horse to Taiping Port.
In the Junior School of Sailors here, the soldiers who were originally drawn from warships from all over the country for training had already received a notice and had already assembled on the school grounds when Sun Chuanting arrived.
Sun Chuanting didn't talk nonsense, got off the horse, strode with a cold face, and after stepping on the platform, he shouted coldly: "The decisive battle in Nanyang is about to begin, and after you have learned so much, it is time to go to the battlefield to see the real chapter." This official will first say that it is here, there are meritorious rewards, and there are punishments, and there will be no feelings. Glory and wealth are all in your hands. Return today, start tomorrow! Do you understand? ”
They all knew the style of the governor, especially the people of Fujian, so all the soldiers shouted in unison: "Understand! ”
Then, without any more words, they all disbanded, packed up their things and returned to the team.
Their return to the team is actually just going to Taiping Port. Because their fleets have already gathered at Taiping Harbor.
This series of actions has also made the local people talk a lot.
"What's going on? Could it be that there are pirates again? ”
"It's impossible, in this situation, where are the pirates who don't have long eyes, and dare to come to Daming to steal things?"
“……”
Since the beginning of the previous year, the strength of the Great Ming Water Division has become stronger and stronger, far more than ever before. Even when the Japanese were prevalent and the imperial court was going all out to deal with them, there was no sailor of such a large scale. In this context, there is no living space for pirates at all, especially when the cold-faced Hades is in charge of the water master.
So, the answer is not difficult to guess, and soon some people thought of it.
"I know, there must be something wrong with Nanyang, this is going to Nanyang!"
"That's right, only the Nanyang side of our Daming side needs to dispatch sailors!"
"Those goddamn Xiyi, as well as those damned Nanyang monkeys, should teach them a lesson, and see if they dare to harm our Ming people!"
"The imperial court pacified Nanyang earlier, and the people of my clan will be able to rest assured when they go to the vassal country to do business!"
“……”
Regarding the matter of the imperial court sailors sending troops to Nanyang, these people along the coast are all in favor of a hundred.
In the midst of these people's discussions, the sailors of Taiping Port set off. But instead of going down the coast to the south, they went to Dayuan. After the replenishment, they joined the sailors stationed on the side of the Dayuan, and together they crossed the Bass Strait and headed for Luzon.
Not only that, but on the Hoi An side, there were also sailor warships that received the order to first arrive at the "Xisha Islands" in later generations, where they gathered the sailor warships from Hainan, and then passed through the "Zhongsha Islands" and "Huangyan Island" to assemble in Luzon Manila.
When the Ming sailors from all over the country began to set off, the anti-Ming coalition members had just set off for Temasek.
Batavia, Su Minggang was old and frail, and he was dozing off at home, when suddenly, he saw Su Minglun rushing in and said, "Uncle clan, something is wrong......
His words frightened Su Minggang into a spirit, and he suddenly fell asleep, and immediately stood up and asked, "Could it be that the Dutch are going to do it?" ”
Faintly, he heard a commotion in the distance.
"It's not!" Sun Minglun's head was full of sweat, and he hurriedly shook his head and said, "The Dutch warships parked in the harbor have dispatched seventy-five ships at once, and even the governor and the admiral have left together. Our people saw it and went to sea together! ”
"How so?" When Su Minggang heard this, he was also a little anxious.
How powerful were the Dutch warships? He's absolutely clear. In the past, when there were more and more Dutch warships, he was already in a hurry, and every time he came to the warship, he made a statement in the chat group. However, neither the Governor nor the Emperor showed any signs of alarm.
Sometimes, Su Minggang was a little suspicious that they didn't know the power of the Dutch battleship. However, he was not bold enough to question it directly. Now, seventy-five Dutch warships went out at once. When they go out, they certainly don't do good deeds. And now the enemy on this side, Da Ming is their biggest enemy, and only Da Ming is worthy of them to send so many warships.
Thinking like this, he was anxious, and hurriedly said to Su Minglun: "I will immediately report to the imperial court." ”
As he spoke, he had already made a decision in his heart, no matter whether the emperor would be angry or not, he must remind him this time.
Entering the chat group, he immediately told him about the situation, and then gritted his teeth and added: "Your Majesty, Lord Governor, the Dutch warships are very powerful, and the grass people think that one of their warships can ...... can beat our five warships. Really, the grass people are telling the truth, and they will never dare to deceive, and I ask Your Majesty and the Governor to be careful. Dutch...... The Dutch dispatched seventy-five warships, and there were almost 20,000 red-haired soldiers alone! ”
His status determines that the information he has access to is limited. Emperor Chongzhen knew better than him that the first stop for the Dutch to dispatch so many warships this time was to go to Temasek first. Therefore, Emperor Chongzhen happened to be online, so he replied to him: "Hehe, you don't have to worry, it's just the Dutch warships, they are all outdated." Don't worry, I know it! ”
Hearing this, Su Minggang sighed in his heart, the emperor doesn't believe his words, or underestimate the enemy, this is going to suffer a big loss!
