Chapter 306: The Battle of Lanfang (4) Return to Pontianak again
In the end, Liu Weiguo didn't think of a good way to deal with it. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info reported this to Nanfeng. Anyway, the sky is falling, and there is a tall man on top, as the leader of the Nanyang Overseas Consulate. Nanfeng has this obligation and responsibility to deal with this issue.
At this time, Zhang Xiao had ordered the gunners to aim their artillery at the coastal defense turret in Pontianak. Li Hai also wanted to say whether he should first note the officials of Lan Fangguo and let them take the initiative to surrender. But Zhang Xiao didn't think about it, so he refused directly.
Because in his opinion, Lan Fangguo must give some color to take a look. Otherwise, you will forget your ancestors and abandon your ancestors. Just like the island nation of Singapore and Poe in later generations, it was obviously a country of Chinese, but it was bent on being in league with the West and trying its best to stumble China and China.
I am afraid that the rise of Langhua Xia will lead to the rejuvenation of the Chinese nation.
They are all descendants of Yan and Huang, but for the selfish interests of a small number of people, they harm the interests of the entire nation in this way.
It's really a shame for the descendants of Yanhuang!
Previously, Daming also looked at the fact that Lanfang Country was also a country of Chinese, and he did not force it so tightly. And at the economic level, certain preferential treatment is given. This is good, but he carried the Ming Dynasty behind his back and was with Britain and Spain.
Feed out the spleen that eats inside and out.
Don't the rulers of Lan Fang Kingdom know? If it weren't for the existence of the Ming Dynasty, Borneo would have long ago become the bag of Western colonizers.
Although Da Ming's thoughts about Borneo are not pure. But Daming is a Chinese country, and Lan Fangguo is merged, and the treatment of the Chinese will not be bad. And if Britain and Spain are the masters, then the good days of the Chinese will come to an end.
For example, the 'Red Creek Massacre' concocted by the Dutch colonizers and the massacre of the Chinese in Manila by the Spanish are real lessons.
The rulers of Lanfang Kingdom will not be unaware of this. It's just that they all have great power in their hands, and they are afraid of losing the power in their hands.
For this reason, Daming deliberately came up with compensation. For example, the Lanfang Company, which was established by the ruler of Lanfang, could obtain additional tax exemptions in Nanyang Overseas Territory, as well as the exclusive right to open mines in Borneo and many other eye-catching business privileges.
You must know that in Daming, all companies cannot evade taxes, and there is no private company that can obtain mining rights. Otherwise, if you catch it, you will only end up stopping.
It is an honor for Lanfang Company to receive such a privilege.
This is still the Ming Dynasty is afraid of the feelings of the Chinese compatriots, otherwise it is like the three sultanates of Java, the royal family was slaughtered, and the people were scattered all over the Ming Dynasty. The original rulers did not get any benefits.
But this Lan Fangguo is still unwilling. It may be that these rulers thought that the Ming Dynasty would always take care of the friendship of their compatriots and would not want to be overly persecuted. may also think that by uniting with the British and the West, the Ming Dynasty will be killed.
So I want to drag it, and I don't stop.
It's also a taste of power, so tempting! What is involved is a large interest group. Everyone's perspective on things is also different. If the people's hearts are not aligned, they will want to keep the power in their hands.
So that what compatriots are not compatriots has never considered. It is logical to be the enemy of the Ming Dynasty.
As a ****** with a pure heart.,Standard love and country.。 Zhang Xiao will never let Lan Fangguo feel better. lest there be more black sheep like Hong Kong, Can, and Bay.
So Lehi, who got the order, immediately gave an order. The roaring artillery fire resounded through Pontianak City.
At the same time, Sun Rufu, the lord of Pontianak City, was discussing the development of gold mines around Pontianak City with representatives of several major families in Pontianak City. Because there are too many interests involved in this gold mine, they discussed and quarreled constantly.
The representatives of the glamorous family also don't care about their faces. Quarreling and arguing, fighting for more interests for themselves.
It was at this moment that a Lanfang soldier suddenly rushed in. The report from above and below said that the Ming warship was about to bombard Pontianak.
The family representatives, who were arguing, immediately stopped talking.
Sun Rufu, who was there as an old god, was also shocked!
In my mind, I also unconsciously recalled the scene of the first bombardment of Pontianak by the Ming Dynasty.
didn't say much, ran and rolled, and rushed out of the city lord's mansion.
He remembered how the previous lord died. So I didn't dare to stay in the city lord's mansion any longer, and took the old path of becoming the city lord.
It wasn't until they were far away that the representatives of the family who stayed in the City Lord's Mansion ran out with pale faces. Although they didn't know the danger of the City Lord's Mansion, they still knew the consequences of the Ming bombardment of Pontianak.
He was bent on running home, guarding the money, and waiting for the Ming to take over the place.
After all, they have been in Nanyang for so long, and they have all heard of the habits of the Ming Dynasty.
Under normal circumstances, the Ming Dynasty would not casually confiscate the money of the Chinese. After Mindanao and Palawan were incorporated into the Chinese, the Ming Dynasty only moved away the local indigenous people. The Chinese, on the other hand, continued to live there. Moreover, those Chinese not only did not lose an inch of wealth, but also shared a lot of the property left by the natives.
In vain, he made a small fortune.
Except for the Wang family not long ago, due to corruption and corruption cases, the family property was confiscated by the Ming Dynasty. I haven't heard of any Chinese family whose property has been confiscated. Therefore, these family representatives are not worried about who is in charge of Pontianak at all.
Moreover, the legal system, administrative system, and military strength of the Ming Dynasty are very much in line with the wishes of these Chinese families. In the end, Lan Fangguo is too small, and its military strength is not strong. The Chinese families in China are also worried that one day, they will usher in the disaster of destroying the country.
Now that the Ming Dynasty is here, although it is also the end of destroying the country. But Daming is a Chinese country, and these Chinese families are not worried about being excluded and oppressed. The family property that he has worked hard to save can also be kept.
What's more, when Lan Fangguo was formed, it was also to give himself a place to settle down.
This Ming is so powerful, they can also rely on the big tree to enjoy the shade. If you work harder, you may still be able to squeeze into the executive and political echelons of the Ming Dynasty.
So now, they are just worried that the Pontianak defenders will be defeated and retreat, and there will be a rebellion. In that case, it's really a big loss.
So much so that Sun Rufu, who still wanted to ask their opinions, was unceremoniously put aside. But each went back to his own house, and each looked for his own mother.
sighed, Sun Rufu couldn't help it. can only face the scalp and negotiate with Daming. Speaking of which, he still has to thank Daming. If it hadn't been for the Ming bombardment of Pontianak a few years ago, it would have been impossible for him to represent Lan Fang and negotiate with the Ming Dynasty.
This also ushered in an opportunity for him to come out and become the lord of Pontianak. After all, the power of Lan Fangguo is concentrated in the hands of the seven major families that founded the country. Except for those family disciples, it was difficult for ordinary people to sit in the position of city lord.
It is also Pontianak by the sea, and there is also the experience of shelling. The disciples of the family did not want to come to this place. only let such a fat difference fall on Sun Rufu's head. (To be continued.) )
