"Smack!" A pair of powerful slaps slammed on the tabletop, and under the tremendous blow, even the high-quality wooden table seemed to be a little unbearable, and shook tremblingly. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

"Big brother! Let's kill back! Fuck it! Zheng Zhihu also said angrily on the side.

"Big brother! Calm your anger! Zheng Ming persuaded on the side.

"These red-haired fans have bullied us! What anger is there? I support it too! Go back and teach them a lesson! Zheng Zhibao was also coaxed on the side.

"How much have you lost?" Zheng Zhilong said succinctly.

"Fifteen warships! Ten of them are ours, and five are from the imperial court! Yang Geng said.

Zheng Zhilong nodded, and then said, "How about those bandits?" How much more time will it take? Zheng Zhilong looked at Zheng Zhihu and said.

"Big brother! It's okay if you don't say it! As soon as I said it, I was angry, those bandits were very slippery, and when they saw us, they slipped away, and they were deep in the mountains and forests, so it was hard to find! Zheng Zhihu said indignantly.

"We don't have time to spend time with them here! In this way, you and the leopard will send a large army to surround that piece tomorrow, and then compress the encirclement, if they don't come out, they will directly set fire to the mountain! I don't believe they won't come out! Zheng Zhilong said.

"Yes! Eldest brother! Zheng Zhihu said succinctly.

"In addition, Yang Geng, we have to delay the Dutch first, you send a reliable brother to send a letter to the Dutch, asking them to release our merchants who were detained on the 12th, and explain the reason why they came to Xiamen to attack our ships, if we can make peace, we will first make peace, after all, we are also old friends, everything is precious first!" Zheng Zhilong said.

"I understand, big brother!" Yang Geng nodded.

"Zheng Ming, Chen Hui, Zheng Cai, you have prepared our army, as well as ships, ready to set off to fight the Dutch at any time!" Zheng Zhilong said.

"Big brother! Didn't you just say that harmony is precious? Zheng Zhibao interjected at this time.

"What if peace talks fail? Be prepared with both hands! Besides, I'm afraid the court won't just forget it, maybe it will let us attack! If we negotiate with the Dutch by then, then let them play with us and it will pass, no matter what, this preparation will still have to be done! Zheng Zhilong said.

At the same time as Zheng Zhilong's side was arranging, the military department also received an urgent report from Fujian, and Sun Chengzong took Song Shu to the Qianqing Palace to meet Emperor Chongzhen.

"Your Majesty! Sun Shoufu asks to see! Cao Huachun bowed.

"The teacher is here? Also! Something happened! Chongzhen nodded, put down the music in his hand and said, "Let the teacher come in!" ”

"Yes!" Cao Huachun bowed, and then went out, and soon, under the leadership of Cao Huachun, Sun Chengzong entered the hall, Sun Chengzong saw Emperor Chongzhen who was seriously reviewing the music, nodded, and then saluted: "Weichen Sun Chengzong see Your Majesty!" ”

Chongzhen put down his pen and returned the half salute to Sun Chengzong, and then said with a smile: "The teacher is here!" Sit! ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Sun Chengzong nodded, and then sat down according to the courtesy.

"The teacher is here today for this red-haired thing, right?" Chongzhen asked.

Sun Chengzong nodded, it seems that the military aircraft department has also received a report, it seems that the speed is faster than the military department, since the establishment of the military aircraft department, in the past three years, the military affairs in the court have basically been handled by the military aircraft department, and the role of the military department seems to be much weaker, but compared with the previous whether it is efficiency or the final processing result, the military aircraft department is obviously much better than before, and he himself is also from the military aircraft department, so he didn't say anything.

"It's been three years! Finally, the court passed three years peacefully, nothing serious, except for some natural disasters and other things that the court couldn't do, everything else was fine, and I slept a lot more peacefully, teacher, do you see that my white hair is much less? Now it seems that this peaceful life is over! Chongzhen joked.

"The ministers are willing to share the worries for Your Majesty, Your Majesty must take care of the dragon's body!" Sun Chengzong smiled.

Chongzhen nodded, and then asked, "Teacher!" Why did this red-haired fan suddenly attack my Daming, and what does the teacher think about this matter? ”

Sun Chengzong saw that Emperor Chongzhen asked, so he nodded, thought for a while, and said, "Just two words!" Benefit! ”

"Tell me about it! Listen to it! Chongzhen said with interest.

After the Battle of Penghu, Zhu Yifeng, the governor of Fujian at the time, proposed in his letter of negotiation that if the Hongmao people were willing to withdraw from Penghu and go to Taiwan, the Fujian Chengxuan Political Envoy was willing to guarantee the commercial exchanges between the Fujian Chengxuan Political Envoy and the Grand Member; But in fact, when the local officials did not fulfill their promises, due to the influence of the ban on the imperial court at that time, so the open trade relationship between the Ming Dynasty and the Hongmao Fan was prohibited, and the Fujian Cheng Xuan Political Envoy Department understood this but still issued a blank check to induce the Hongmao Fan to agree to its proposal, which buried a hidden danger, and then the Hongmao Fan could not enter the trade of my Daming port, and the Hongmao Fan ships could only anchor around Zhangzhou Bay if they wanted to carry out the trade of my Daming, and through the helper to transport the goods on the ship for trading, This is essentially smuggling. At that time, the Dutch barely obtained a small amount of silk fabrics and other goods from our Ming Dynasty with the assistance of Xu Xinsu, a Fujian merchant, but this trade model was signed by Zheng Zhilong after Xu Xinsu was defeated by Zheng Zhilong, but the annual supply volume was not determined in the contract, so the trade between Hongmao Fan and our dynasty was completely subject to Zheng Zhilong's decision. Sun Chengzong said.

"Xu Xinsu?! How can there still be this person? Chongzhen looked like a curious baby.

"Since Your Majesty is interested, let's talk about it, as far as Weichen knows, this Xu Xinsu was once hot during the Apocalypse of my dynasty, he not only has a wide range of trade contacts along the coast, but more importantly, he has accepted the recruitment of our dynasty and has become an important staff member of Yu Zhigao, the general soldier of Fujian. He was the only merchant in the entire southeast coast at that time who had the legal right to trade with Hongmaofan, and because of this, this half-official and half-merchant status naturally attracted Hongmaofan more. The trade between the two sides was very frequent, especially after the Hongmao Fanren invaded Taiwan, Xu Xinsu once monopolized the "exclusive supply right" to the Dutch in Taiwan. The raw silk he supplied to the Dutch at a time was usually more than 200 quintals, and the price of each quintal was as high as 142 taels. Later, in the seventh year of the Apocalypse, Zheng Zhilong led more than 100 warships to brazenly attack our coastal defense of Tongshan, and then attacked the central avant-garde, but our naval division was corrupt and had no combat power, so it was defeated, and Yu Zhigao, the general soldier of Fujian, was dismissed by the imperial court and arrested to the capital for punishment, Xu Xinsu also lost his position, and was finally captured and killed by Zheng Zhilong. Sun Chengzong sighed after speaking.

"It seems that this Xu Xinsu is just a stepping stone on the road to Zheng Zhilong's fortune, and at the same time, this is also a stain on my dynasty!" Chongzhen shook his head, then sighed.

Looking at Chongzhen, Sun Chengzong continued: "Wechen continued to analyze, and Wechen thought that Hongmaofan naturally complained about this kind of trade situation that was subject to Zheng Zhilong's unilateral trade situation, so they kept putting forward proposals to Zheng Zhilong for free trade in our ports, and assisted Zheng Zhilong in defeating Li Kuiqi, the most powerful pirate on the southeast coast at that time, in order to try to exchange for free trade in our dynasty, but Zheng Zhilong did not fulfill the agreement after defeating Li Kuiqi; This information has been confirmed by Weichen before, and Zheng Zhilong, although Zheng Zhilong controlled the maritime power in this sea area at that time, his official position did not essentially determine the trade authority with other countries, and Zou Weilian, the new governor of Fujian in March of the third year of Chongzhen, was also dissatisfied with Zheng Zhilong and others who privately traded with Hongmaofan, so after taking office, he issued a sea ban again, allowing people with permission to go to the sea to carry out activities, but not allowing foreigners to trade in Fujian. The following year after the issuance of the ban on the sea, only 6 permits were obtained to go to Dayuan, and the number of ships that came was even less, which made the trade of Hongmaofan in Taiwan difficult, and then the Hongmaofan, who had continuously obtained promises and paid the price but had no results, finally lost patience, and this war broke out! ”

Chongzhen was stunned for a moment after hearing this: "Now that the imperial court doesn't encourage the people to go to the sea to carry out activities, how did this Zou Weilian move out of the previous set?" ”

"Your Majesty! The imperial court is to encourage the people to go to sea to do business, but that is within the scope of legal activities, and the activities of Zheng Zhilong and Hongmaofan belong to smuggling, this Zou Weilian is an upright person, so he naturally can't look past it, so he moved out of the previous sea ban, so this situation occurred! Sun Chengzong said helplessly.

Chongzhen was speechless after hearing this, and then sighed and said, "It's hard for him。。。。。。 ”
