Chapter 347: Making War Money

Hu Mingshan was sweating, and although the price offered by Lord Huang fluctuated greatly, the effect of 50,000 or 80,000 gold was useless. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

And the amount that Guangnan Guo expected for the annihilation of the entire Northern Navy Division was far more than Hu Mingshan's heart, and he didn't dare to hurry back to return to the lord.

The Ming Dynasty promised to wipe out the fleet of the Later Li Dynasty? Although the asking price was too ruthless, it still made Quang Nam take the initiative.

The ministers of Quang Nam also believed that if the Ming fleet could wipe out the northern sailors in one fell swoop, it would be able to maintain peace for at least five years in the future.

The northern defense line of Guangnan is impregnable, and Zheng's army can only come from the sea, and the Quang Nam naval division is completely wiped out and can no longer resist, if the northern naval division is also finished, then it will be a strategic stalemate, and then both the north and the south will develop the naval division from scratch, and it will probably take five years to form combat effectiveness.

Bargaining is a must, is that greedy Lord Huang of Daming a golden mouth? The lord of the country secretly decided that if he wanted to do it, he would kill Zheng Jie's sailors, and if the Ming army was half-hung and they left, Guangnan would be attacked by Zheng Jie's sailors on the coastal territory.

Thieves come like combs, soldiers come like grates, as long as there is a military disaster in their own territory, I am afraid that the losses caused by ten years will be difficult to recover, Ruan Fuyuan thought about it again and again and felt that it was worth spending gold to buy peace, and let a few ministers under him continue to negotiate conditions.

Hu Mingshan, who ran errands, came to the "Liaodong" cabin again, and several high-ranking officials of the small court of Guangnan accompanied him, it seems that this Ruan Fuyuan lord is still very shrewd, and he is afraid that his ministers will eat kickbacks for such a big deal.

Hu Mingshan told Lord Huang that their lord was going to melt all the golden basins in the palace to make up for the Ming army's salary, but the country was small and the people were poor, and I was afraid that they could only gather 150,000 taels of gold.

Who knew that Daming, Lord Huang, was too unkind, he actually said that there was no need to be so troublesome, don't melt gold handicrafts and items, Daming received the goods according to the catty, and folded the color according to the fineness.

But 200,000 taels of gold cannot be less, this is the bottom line, because there are many casualties in such a vicious battle, and the lives of Ming soldiers are very expensive.

This adult of the Ming Dynasty looks ugly, his thick skin is gold, and he has no Confucian demeanor that doesn't talk about profit, he is simply a living villain!

Several officials of Quang Nam looked at each other, unable to do anything, their faces were ugly, and they were sweating in a hurry. But they have no way to increase the price, 150,000 taels is the highest upper line given by the lord of the country.

Several people began to grind hard and say pitiful words to sympathize, Huang Sheng saw that they were forced to be like this and did not let go, it seems that this is already their hole card, so he no longer insisted.

An additional condition was put forward, requiring the lord of Quang Nam to canonize his adviser named Nguyen Dan as an official of Quang Nam.

The conditions offered were somewhat ridiculous, giving the title of the king of Jiaozhi a hereditary replacement, and the fief was a land within a radius of 300 miles close to the border of the Ming Dynasty, which was now the territory actually controlled by the Zheng clan of the Later Li Dynasty.

Several ministers did not have such power, so they went back to ask the lord of the country, Nguyen Phuc Yuan, and believed that the canonization of Quang Nam had no conflict with their national interests, and suggested that the lord of the country should be false and wrong.

The lord of the country thought about it and immediately agreed, if this Lord Huang of the Ming Dynasty really wants to get the fief, I am afraid that he will start a war with the north, whether it succeeds or not, it will be beneficial to the south.

The lord of Guangnan agreed to Huang Sheng's unreasonable demand, sent Hu Mingshan to send 100,000 taels of gold, and immediately sent the remaining 50,000 taels after defeating the northern army Zheng Jie's fleet.

Taking people's money to eliminate disasters for others, this time the bounty hunter's business is terrible, and the price of 150,000 taels of gold may kill thousands of people for others.

The Huang family fast ship that shielded the battlefield suddenly appeared off the coast of the commercial port of Feifu, and more than 100 large and small sea ships were rounded up at once, and then the Huang family warship waited for work and completely annihilated the Zheng Ji fleet of the Houli Dynasty that was advancing lightly.

The small and large Yue country has never heard of a powerful navy! Zheng Jie's fleet, which had always been invincible, was full of spirit, and they rammed into nearly three times the number of ships they did, with ten times the firepower of them, and the speed was generally thirty times faster than theirs.

The Huang family beating them is bullying, it is simply a one-sided one-sided shelling, the enemy ship can't beat and can't run, and in the end they all understand, as long as everyone kneels on the deck, they will avoid being buried in the belly of the fish.

The stubborn resistance was the purchase of more than 20 Galen ships from the Westerners, and the Huang family was reluctant to sink these large ships, and their firepower covered Li Guozhu's pirate warriors to jump into the gang to fight.

In the Northern Army's naval division, these ships can still be looked down upon by Huang Sheng and strive to capture them all.

The reason why the Northern Army of the Later Li Dynasty launched a large-scale war to regain the south this time was because they bought warships such as medium-sized Galen ships from the Dutch at a high price.

The Dutch are so shrewd, of course they will not sell the real warships to the Great Yue Kingdom, they are just some insignificant obsolete products armed merchant ships, even so they got these Galen ships equipped with about ten guns, Zheng Jie still felt that the combat effectiveness of the Northern Army Naval Division was doubled.

The Northern Marines sailed at full speed to the port of Fifford without knowing anything, they had already defeated the southern sailors, and knew that the Southern army would no longer have any warships to withstand their sea attacks, and how prosperous the Fafo Harbor was, and the northern army knew how much wealth they would get by capturing it, making them drool at the thought of it.

It's a pity that Zheng Jie's luck is too bad, and he coincidentally met the Huang family fleet doing business in the South Seas, and he was most afraid of something unexpected happening in the war.

The Huang and Li families complemented each other tacitly, and the Japanese ronin brandished a pheasant knife and jumped on the Galen ship to slash wildly, and I don't know how many northern troops were cut in half or cut in half, so bloody slashing and killing, so that the soldiers of the small and small Yue Kingdom were scattered, and many captives later went insane.

Easily a naval battle, captured more than 100 large and small warships, sank more than 50, captured more than 4,000 prisoners, and cut off more than 2,000 heads.

There is no need for Lord Huang to play on his behalf, let Ruan Dan, the king of Jiaozhi County of Guangnan Kingdom, personally go to the Ming Dynasty to pay tribute!

As a result, Quang Nam sent a full set of honor guards and official seals of a county king, and also issued a national certificate with the seal of their lord Nguyen Phuc Yuan.

Lord Huang has a legal fief in his hand with a radius of 300 miles outside the border of Guangxi, and the restoration of the homeland of the Han people is just around the corner, and he will go to cause the facts after a few years of strengthening his strength again.

When the joint fleet blocked the battlefield in Feifu Port, many fishing boats and merchant ships were seized and none of the fishing boats and merchant ships that the Huang family had taken a fancy to and could sail away were not returned to their owners, and they were all counted as captures.

The Daming Navy Division did not admit that he had detained these merchant ships at all, but insisted on seizing them from the Northern Army Sailors.

Where does this make sense? The naval division of the Northern Army did rob many sea ships and eventually turned them into trophies of the Ming army. Weak countries have no diplomacy, the lord of Guangnan pinched his nose and admitted it, and he no longer dared to chirp crookedly, they had already seen the combat effectiveness of the Ming army, for fear of annoying these killing gods.

The Ming army captured many ships at sea, this is nothing, most of them are not their country at all, in case they go ashore to grab a few cities, the loss will be immeasurable, the monarch of Guangnan State just wants this Ming official to go home as soon as possible.
