1260 poked a hornet's nest

In fact, Emperor Chongzhen's so-called price is just to spend some achievement points to add people. As for the achievement points consumed by the temporary group and the photo function, they have all been bought out by him. If the hukou system of the newly opened feudal kingdom is opened, it will not cost him much.

Of course, if you count all the costs of the chat group, the cost is really large, and the achievement value of buying out the temporary group and the photo function is astronomical. However, the main purpose of Emperor Chongzhen saying this to the Tang King was to let the Tang King go and talk to other vassal kings, so that other vassal states could also use this household registration system. In this way, as long as the vassal states with the new household registration system are used, they are all under the control of Emperor Chongzhen.

When the time comes, he can give the factory guard permission, and let the factory guard privately count the population, taxes, etc. of the feudal kingdom, and he can have a clear grasp of the feudal kingdom without going out.

Tang Wang is not the leader of the group, so he naturally doesn't know how big the price is. Although he knew that the emperor would definitely be able to see the population and taxes of the feudal kingdom, he didn't care much. The reason for this, first, is population management, which has always been a management problem in ancient society, and the instant messaging system of chat groups can be very powerful and perfectly solve this problem.

Second, the vassal kings at this time, even the ambitious Tang kings, were not ambitious people for the Ming Dynasty. In other words, they have been raised as pigs since they were children, although they have been divided into feudal lords with real power at this time, but the things in their bones have not changed.

At this time, they never had any thoughts, they wanted to guard against Daming. On the contrary, at this time, they are doing everything possible to get the support of Daming and get Daming's affirmation. These demographic, tax and other information, even if they know, will be known by the Ming Dynasty, but they will not care much. Of course, if their children and grandchildren think the same way, they will not care at all at this time.

It is precisely because of the above two reasons that when King Tang heard that Emperor Chongzhen agreed, his heart was suddenly overjoyed, and after thanking him repeatedly, he immediately went to the chat group of the vassal king and started his show again.

Emperor Chongzhen was diving, silently watching him perform.

I saw that the king of Tang said that he wanted to share the experience of governing the country, and Balabala talked about a bunch of management difficulties encountered. And the most basic thing in a country is population management. When he said this, King Fu and King Yi, who had already experienced it, echoed it in unison, and it was a pile of bitter water.

After that, the Tang King told him what he had heard from Wei Zhongliang about the new household registration system. In the middle of this, he got the support of the vassal king who did not divide it. Because as long as the people in the territory of the Ming Dynasty, including the vassal king, all have been registered. At this time, they didn't care about privacy at all, the emperor had an order, and naturally he had to carry it out.

When the Tang king heard that someone agreed, he spoke more vigorously, just because he knew that the emperor might see him talking, so he didn't dare to exaggerate too much, but just said that if he asked for the emperor's favor, the vassal state could also join the new household registration system, which could solve the problem of population management very well. If you want to be together, hurry up and get in the car together.

King Tang is already considered to be a more accomplished vassal king, and he doesn't care that the population information of his country is mastered by the Ming Dynasty, let alone other vassal kings. As long as they can solve the problem and make their rule smoother, they will think more. All of a sudden, King Fu and King Yi immediately agreed, and the other vassal kings were not far behind, and even the vassal kings who had not been divided were shouting not to forget that they also wanted this new household registration management.

In this way, at the initiative of these vassal kings, the new household registration system of the Ming Dynasty covered the vassal states.

Of course, the vassal kingdom has a separate folder for storing materials, and the vassal king and the people designated by the vassal king can access these folders, but they don't have access to the other folders. For this reason, Emperor Chongzhen is not just a mouthful, he needs to add more chat group members, if it is the best of the vassal country, if not, he will go over from the Daming faction chat group members to act as the household registration administrator of the vassal country.

Just when Emperor Chongzhen and the vassal kings were busy with the new household registration management system, six sail warships appeared in the Xiaoxi Ocean, that is, the Indian Ocean in later generations. On one of the ships, the flagship, several Xiyi were standing there looking out at the coastline in the distance. One of them said to the man standing in the middle, watching with a telescope, "Captain, this place should belong to Bengal." A few years ago, the Portuguese were defeated by the natives here and escaped! ”

These people, the British, were sent by Charles I to the fleet of ships in the East. The leader was Captain Weddell, and their purpose was mainly to hear about the wealth of the East, and to see what opportunities there were for making a fortune.

In the original history, this fleet would not depart from London until the ninth year of Chongzhen. But in this plane, because of the butterfly effect, I set off a year early.

At this time, Britain was not the empire on which the sun never set, but its strength was on the rise. If in the original history, this fleet reached the following year outside the Shizimen in the south of Macao. As a result, the Portuguese in Macao, because of their own interests, directly sent ships to stop this fleet, preventing them from approaching and not allowing trade.

There was no way, so Captain Weddell led the fleet to Guangzhou, but clashed with the defenders of Humen in the Ming Dynasty, and they occupied the Humen Fort. They thought that the Ming were as weak and deceitful as the natives of the other colonies, so they wanted to force the Ming to trade with them, so they continued to march all the way to Guangzhou, plundering along the way. As a result, it attracted a counterattack from Daming. In desperation, Weddell hurriedly begged the Portuguese to be a peacemaker.

In the end, Weddell compensated 2,800 taels of silver and promised never to come to Daming again, so the matter was resolved, and he returned to England in disgrace.

Of course, in this plane, they have only reached the coast of Bengal, and it is still early before the Ming Dynasty!

Listening to the guide's introduction, Weddell looked into the distance, and suddenly, he noticed that two ships seemed to be coming from the direction of the coastline. Hurriedly adjust the focal length of the telescope and look closely. Half a day later, he asked a little strangely, "What's going on?" Sail warships, it should be our European, right? But I've never seen the flag hanging on it! ”

When these Englishmen heard this, they were a little curious. The guide beside Weddell had also been to the East a long time ago, and he didn't know about the current situation, so after he looked at it with the help of a telescope, he replied helplessly to Weddell: "Captain, this flag should not be European, and I have never seen it." ”

After a pause, he guessed a little: "There are no sail warships in the East, I guess, which colony this may belong to, right?" But it shouldn't be, no matter which colony it is, it should have the flag of their master's country! ”

Guess and guess, no one can guess what. When Weddell saw it, the corners of his mouth twitched slightly, revealing a trace of disdain and said: "Don't guess, the battle formation, surround them, grab them and ask, don't you know the situation!" ”

They have six warships on their side, and there are only two warships on the opposite side, six against two, so there is definitely no problem. And the British Empire has no allies on this side, no matter who it is against, it will not be wrong anyway.

Hearing the captain's order, everyone else couldn't help but nod, such a simple matter. So, the flagship immediately issued an order through the flag and prepared for war.

What they didn't expect was that the two sail warships flying the overlapping flags of the red sun and yellow moon on the opposite side seemed to immediately detect their intentions and immediately called them a common flag.

"Captain, the other side warns us that we must not show hostility, and we must do what the other side says." The lookout on the flagpole shouted loudly downward, with a hint of amusement in his words.

Weddell listened, and when his own force was stronger than the other party, it was naturally impossible to be obedient, and he didn't answer at all, which means that his previous order was still valid.

So, the six sail battleships continued their combat deployment, but before they could finish their preparations, the lookout on the flagpole reported loudly: "Captain, the enemy is fleeing!" ”

When Weddell heard this, he immediately raised his binoculars and looked over. Sure enough, the two sail warships did not engage in battle, but turned a corner and fled to the coast.

"Hehe, look where you are fleeing!" Weddell sneered and immediately ordered, "Keep up and stay on the alert!" ”

Those who go out to colonize have a convention, if they see that there is a advantage to take advantage of, then take advantage of the situation, if there is no advantage to take advantage of, then look at the situation and talk about it separately. In short, when they came out, they were bullying the weak and fearing the hard.

In this way, the six sail warships chased the two sail warships flying the overlapping flags of the red sun and the yellow moon until the coast.

After a period of time, getting closer and closer to the coastline, Weddell suddenly found through the telescope that there were many ships in the offshore area, which looked like civilian ships, cargo ships, and not armed ships anyway. Mostly ships from the East, few ships from the West.

"There's a bustling port here?" Weddell was a little confused, and turned to ask the guide.

The guide was also puzzled, when he came here a few years ago, there was no bustling port here. But now he could see with the naked eye that there were many ships coming and going on the sea near the coast in the distance.

I don't understand! In desperation, the guide shrugged his shoulders and spread his hands, indicating that he didn't know either.

Soon, either the two fleeing sailboats in front of them gave a warning, or they themselves saw it, and the cargo ships and other things began to flee in the same direction, speeding up.

Seeing this, a smug smile appeared on Weddell's face. They've seen it many times since they left London. This often happens along the coastline of the natives, and he leads the fleet to attack it, and he can basically plunder it. If you hadn't had enough supplies along the way, you wouldn't have been able to go this far.

It wasn't just Weddell who thought so, but the other Brits on the six sail battleships all smiled like cat and mouse. Everyone, it seems, is very relaxed.

The coastline is getting closer and closer, and Weddell and the others can see more and more clearly. They are also discerning people, and they can immediately see that this place seems to be really prosperous.

So, a flag came from a sail warship, and the flag soldier immediately said to Weddell: "The other warships ask for instructions, and if the attack on the port goes well, can they attack directly ashore?" ”

After all, they only have six warships, and if the shore is a large city of the natives, then there may be too many people on the other side, and after the natives react, they may be outnumbered. However, if you go ashore and plunder before the natives react, the harvest will be great.

Weddell listened, and after a little hesitation, he replied, "It's business as usual!" ”

Finally, the British warships saw the harbor on the coastline. I saw that the houses on the shore were lined up one after another, covering a wide area, and it was obvious that it was indeed a very prosperous place. As a result, the Brits, who had come from afar, screamed excitedly one by one. In their eyes, the more prosperous the place, the greater the harvest!

However, just as they were gearing up to make a big battle around the natives' port, they saw a ship come out of the harbor in the distance.

At first, Weddell didn't care, no matter how stupid the natives were, they couldn't be caught with their hands tied, and they would definitely fight back. But after he kills the indigenous resistance forces neatly, everything will be fine.

Thinking so, he was just about to look at the binoculars, when suddenly, the lookout on the flagpole lowered his head and shouted, with horror in his voice: "Captain, quickly retreat, stabbed the hornet's nest, it's all sail battleships!" Captain, get out of ......."

When Weddell heard this, he was immediately startled, and hurriedly looked over with the help of a telescope.

The lookout was right, the ships that came out of the harbor were the same as the two sail warships they had encountered before, all of them were wearing flags with overlapping red sun and yellow moon, and they could be seen from both sides of the ship, and there were many gun emplacements. The most important thing is that this kind of sail warship is one after another, and I don't know how many there are in the port, anyway, I don't need to count, the number of sail warships on the other side is far more than the six on our side.

Damn, it's really a hornet's nest, how can there be so many sail battleships here?

Weddell scolded while puzzled, and then hurriedly ordered: "Withdraw, withdraw, withdraw!" ”

I have to say that the ability of these British to escape is first-class, and with the cooperation of all the crews, these six sail warships immediately turned around and fled, and the speed became faster and faster, and slowly, finally threw off those battleships that caught up.

When they fled to the safety of the sea, the other warships waved their flags and asked what to do next.

Weddell thought for a moment, although he didn't understand why there were so many strange sail warships here, but he thought about his mission, and finally decided to continue sailing east.

However, he didn't know that it was Liang Xiaozhen, the commander of the Ming Army's naval division, who was chasing his fleet. His subordinates, after all, were not as familiar with sailboats as Xiyi, and after being fled, he looked at the direction of Xiyi's escape and entered the chat group.
