At the same time that Chen Ting took over as the ambassador of the Xingang Propaganda Department, Wang Hong asked people to post a notice, denouncing the Black Barbarian King and Ida for colluding to attack Xingang, and ordered the Black Barbarian King to lead a family to Xingang to ask for guilt, otherwise the Ming army would go to attack the Black Barbarian City and destroy the Black Barbarian Clan.

Li Hongyu believed that the Black Barbarian King would never bring his family to Xingang, in that case, even if he did not die, he would be imprisoned, so he would definitely resist stubbornly.

This is exactly what he wants to see, in that case, the Ming army's next extermination of the black barbarians is a matter of course, and it shows the demeanor of the Ming Dynasty's benevolence and righteousness, if the black barbarian king really came to Xingang to ask for guilt as stated in the notice, it will make the situation troublesome.

In order to take down the black barbarians at the minimum cost, Li Hongyu not only united with the white barbarians, but also wooed and divided the black barbarians.

Those tribes that were annexed after the conquest of the Black Barbarians became the targets of Li Hongyu's struggle, promising that after the Black Barbarians perished, they could choose to join the White Barbarians or the Xingang Propaganda Division, and if they joined the Xingang Propaganda Division, they would be treated the same as the Xingang people.

Things were as Li Hongyu expected, after receiving Wang Hong's order, the White Barbarian King happily agreed to send troops, as long as he eliminated the Black Barbarians, he could get half of the land of the Black Barbarians, and he could also befriend the Ming Dynasty, so why not.

Although some officials of the White Barbarian tribe were worried that the Xingang Propaganda Division would become a big problem for the White Barbarians in the future, more officials believed that the Ming Dynasty itself was too far away from the Jawa, so the Xingang Propaganda Division was not a threat to the White Barbarians.

What is especially important is that as long as the black barbarians are destroyed, then the white barbarians will be able to concentrate their forces to attack the fire barbarians in the south, and after the annexation of the fire barbarians, the white barbarians will become the overlord of the claw, not to mention the Xingang Xuanwei Division in a corner of peace.

For this reason, the White Barbarian King began to mobilize his troops with all his might, preparing to cooperate with the Ming army to quell the resistance forces in the Black Barbarian Clan after taking the Black Barbarian City.

When the White Barbarian King was full of ambition to deploy troops, the Black Barbarian City was shrouded in miserable clouds, and no one expected that the Black Barbarian King would secretly collude with Ida to attack the Xingang Xuanwei Division.

In the face of the notice posted by Wang Hong, the Black Barbarian King flatly denied having an affair with Ada, claiming that this was a false accusation by the Ming army, and its purpose was to annex the territory of the Black Barbarians and make the Black Barbarians become slaves of the Xingang Xuanwei Division.

Therefore, the people of the Black Barbarian King, known as the Black Barbarians, rose up to fight in order to protect their homeland against the invasion of the Ming army and the White Barbarians.

In order to ensure that Heimancheng had sufficient defensive forces, the Black Barbarian King mobilized a large number of people from all over the city to come to Heimancheng, preparing to fight to the death with the Ming army and the white barbarians in Heimancheng.

Not only that, the Black Barbarian King sent people to Batavia to ask for help from Cohen, the governor of the Dutch East India Company, promising that as long as the Dutch helped the Black Barbarians repel the Ming and White Barbarian armies, then he would provide the Dutch East India Company with a large number of slaves for production, and sell the spices and other materials of the Black Barbarians to the Dutch East India Company at a low price.

It's a pity that Cohen not only rejected the Black Barbarian King, but also sent the envoy sent by the Black Barbarian King to Xingang and handed it over to the Ming army, compared to the huge commercial market of the Ming Dynasty, the conditions of the Black Barbarian King are simply not worth mentioning.

Moreover, Cohen had no hope of winning the war, and if he went to war with the Ming army, he would face tens of thousands of well-trained and well-equipped Ming soldiers, in addition to the Portuguese.

If Cohen had the confidence to wipe out the Ming fleet at sea, but the Dutch army, which was inferior in numbers in 6 places, would be strangled like a hunt by the Ming army, he naturally knew how to make a trade-off.

Seeing that Da Ming and the Portuguese were getting closer and closer, Cohen was secretly anxious in his heart, racking his brains to repair the relationship with Da Ming.

Penghu was completely a chicken rib for the Dutch, they would be attacked by the Ming army at any time, but they could not give up, otherwise the Dutch would lose a foothold in the Far East and would not be able to compete with Portugal and Spain.

Therefore, Cohen seized the opportunity of the black barbarians to send an envoy to ask for help, and took the initiative to extend an olive branch to the Ming trading fleet, hoping to ease the tension with the Ming.

Li Hongyu did not disappoint Cohen, and specially sent someone to thank Cohen in the name of Wang Hong, and conveyed an important message to Cohen, if the Netherlands wanted to trade with the Ming Dynasty, Cohen must go to the Ming Dynasty in person and hand over the credentials of the Kingdom of the Netherlands requesting trade to the Ming Emperor.

Only in this way will the Dutch gain a place to live in the coastal area of the Ming Dynasty, as the Portuguese did, otherwise the trade route between the Dutch and the Ming Dynasty will be blocked forever.

Cohen felt a burst of ecstasy in his heart after receiving the news, he did not think that this was Wang Hong's perfunctory words, if Wang Hong, the official in charge of the overseas trade of the Ming Dynasty, said a few kind words in front of the Ming Emperor, then the Ming Emperor would agree to the Dutch to obtain a place to live along the coast of the Ming Dynasty.

As for the current impasse with the Ming, Cohen felt that he needed to reflect deeply, and the reason why the relationship between the two sides became like this was entirely because the Dutch did not understand the Ming, thinking that they were as easy to conquer as the natives of Jawa, Jinzhou, Luzon and other places, and suffered a big loss.

In Cohen's view, if the Netherlands wants to open the commercial market of the Ming Dynasty, it must change its previous aggressive attitude, otherwise the relationship with the Ming Dynasty will only get worse and worse, and the two enemies of Spain and Portugal will be cheapened for nothing.

Therefore, Cohen immediately wrote a letter to China, hoping to get the credentials of the government of the Kingdom of the Netherlands, so that he could take the credentials to the Ming Dynasty to meet the Emperor of the Apocalypse and open the trade between the Ming Dynasty and the Netherlands.

Of course, Li Hongyu euphemistically revealed in his message to Cohen that the Ming Dynasty is now talking to the Portuguese about introducing technicians and scholars, but the Portuguese are asking for a very high price, and if the Netherlands can seize this opportunity, they will definitely get the favor of the Emperor of the Apocalypse.

The Dutch certainly did not want the Portuguese to get too close to the Ming Dynasty, and Li Hongyu believed that Cohen would seize the opportunity to promote friendly relations with the Ming Dynasty in order to obtain more benefits from trade with the Ming Dynasty.

It is worth mentioning that the Black Barbarian King also asked the Fire Barbarian King for help, believing that the two sides are dependent on each other, and that the White Barbarian King will definitely have to deal with the Fire Barbarian King after the Black Barbarian Clan is destroyed, so he hopes that the Fire Barbarian King can launch an offensive, so that the White Barbarian King has no time to take care of attacking the Black Barbarian City, and then reduce the pressure on the Black Barbarian City.

The Fire Barbarian King was in a dilemma because of this, he obviously did not want to see the situation in the northern region of the White Barbarians settle down, in which case the White Barbarians would go all out to deal with the Fire Barbarians.

But then again, if you attack the White Barbarian Clan at this time, then you will undoubtedly offend the Ming Dynasty, which is not something that the Fire Barbarian King wants to see.

Therefore, after some careful consideration, the Fire Barbarian King listened to the advice of his advisers and decided to send troops to assist the Ming army in attacking the Black Barbarians, and then establish good relations with the Ming Dynasty, which was also a constraint on the White Barbarians.

In order to show his sincerity, the Fire Barbarian King deliberately asked the prince to personally lead three thousand Fire Barbarian soldiers to rush to Xincheng Port by ship, which greatly surprised the White Barbarian King and disrupted his future deployment at once.

The prince of the Fire Barbarian King brought the letter of state of the Fire Barbarian King, hoping to go to the Ming Dynasty to meet the Emperor of the Apocalypse, and also brought a lot of tribute to the Emperor of the Apocalypse.

Li Hongyu naturally welcomed this, and it was a great thing to have a new overseas country go to the capital to worship, and it has always been regarded as a symbol of prosperity, which is enough for the officials in the capital to brag about, and it has also increased the prestige of the young Emperor of the Apocalypse.

In this way, Jawa Island was actually under the control of the Ming Dynasty, and Li Hongyu used the Xingang Xuanwei Division as a base to balance the White Barbarians and the Fire Barbarians, so that the two had to rely on the Ming Dynasty.

Obviously, Li Hongyu will not sit back and watch the White Barbarian Clan grow stronger, in that case it will not be conducive to the Ming Dynasty's control of the Jawwa, the Fire Barbarian King made the most correct decision in his life, which made the Fire Barbarian get the protection of the Ming Dynasty to avoid being attacked by the White Barbarian.

In the third year of the Apocalypse, in mid-May, the Ming army and the white barbarian soldiers met under the city of Heiman, and 5,000 Ming troops, 20,000 white barbarian soldiers, and 3,000 fire barbarian soldiers surrounded the city.

After witnessing the well-trained and well-equipped soldiers of the Ming army, even the costumes were not uniform, and the white barbarians and fire barbarians who were dressed in tatters and even many people wore straw sandals were shocked, which also made the white barbarian king and the fire barbarian king realize that the Ming Dynasty, the "heavenly kingdom", was not in vain.

For the White Barbarians and Fire Barbarians, who were simply armed with weapons such as knives and guns, the Black Barbarian City, which was made of bricks and stones with a wall five or six meters high, was a strong fortress that could not be captured.

However, in the eyes of the generals of the Ming army, the so-called "first city of Java" was just a city built by some landlords and old wealthy men in the Ming Dynasty to guard against bandits and rebels, and it was impossible to stop the advance of the Ming army.

The Black Barbarian King pinned all his hopes on the city defense of the Black Barbarian City, and in his opinion, as long as the Black Barbarian City could block the offensive of the Ming army, the Ming army, which had not been able to attack for a long time, would naturally retreat.

In addition, the Black Barbarian King has gathered nearly 40,000 troops in the city, and has stored food that can last for more than half a year, so he is very confident in holding the Black Barbarian City.

Unfortunately, when the dozens of artillery pieces placed outside the city by the Ming army emitted a loud and dull roar, the Black Barbarian King knew that his wish had come to naught.

Under the shelling of the Ming artillery, not only the city gate made of thick wood, iron bars and rivets was bombarded by artillery, but the city wall was even more collapsed, and the city defense of the black barbarian city on which he relied lost its effect in an instant.

What made the Black Barbarian King even more frustrated was that with the collapse of the walls of the Black Barbarian City, many of the Black Barbarian soldiers in the city rebelled, and under the leadership of several generals, they fiercely attacked the palace where the Black Barbarian King was located, causing heavy casualties to the Black Barbarian Army guards guarding the palace.

Li Hongyu did not order an attack after the wall of the Black Barbarian City was blown down, but quietly waited for the outcome of the battle in the city, because of the fierce battle between the rebels and the palace guards, the people in the city escaped from the gap in the collapsed city wall, and were placed in a prisoner camp by the Ming army guarding outside the city, and the ordinary people would be released when their identities were identified.

The battle in the city lasted for more than an hour, and the guards loyal to the Black Barbarian King were almost wiped out by the superior rebels.

The Black Barbarian King was captured after the palace was breached, and several rebel generals escorted the Black Barbarian King out of the city to ask the Ming army for guilt, Li Hongyu let the rebels in the city go out of the city to accept the reorganization before ordering to enter the city, and the soldiers captured the Black Barbarian City bloodlessly.
