Immediately afterwards, Daming launched a vigorous rectification operation from top to bottom. The slogan shouted by the www.biquge.info of the pen "Fun" is: "Proceed from the facts, do not make false reports, do not exaggerate or exaggerate." ’。

Some of the bad habits of bureaucracy and bureaucracy brought about by modern society, such as the spirit of clinging to relatives and forging alliances, and the transfer of benefits and benefits, have also disappeared under the joint crackdown of the Police Department, the Discipline Inspection Department, and the Intelligence Department.

In industry, large and small loopholes and deficiencies have also been sorted out and reported to the cabinet.

Combined with reality, many plans and arrangements have also been adjusted and re-planned one by one.

At the same time, Minh Kyung City, Haiphong District, in a well-guarded small courtyard.

Zuo Peng ignored Philip's cold face and asked leisurely: "Governor Philip, are you still used to living here?" ”。

Hearing this, Philip couldn't help but feel disgusted in his heart. When he was in the consulate, Zuo Peng also asked something similar with a smile.

So he didn't bother to play dumb riddles, and said coldly: "Minister Zuo came to see me at this time, is it news from the UK?" ”。

Since he was arrested by Da Ming, he has been locked up here with great sadness. If it weren't for his status as governor, he would have been reformed in a labor camp now.

Fortunately, this yard is not small, otherwise normal people would be driven crazy if they stay in a small space every day.

Of course, he didn't think about running away.

It's just that there is a post in five steps here, and a sentry in ten steps, and the garrison is extremely tight. He never looked for a chance.

And then as time passed, his heart gradually faded.

Anyway, as the expatriate governor of Britain, he always had some value. Judging from the face of the country alone, Britain will not abandon him.

Therefore, when Zuo Peng came, he instinctively thought that Britain wanted to ransom him.

But Zuo Peng shook his head, pretending to be profound: "Definitely! Definitely! I'm coming for you! It's not that there is news from the UK, but that Daming has news for you. ”。

The Ming Dynasty declared war on Britain for more than three months. Even India, as recently as possible, has only recently received the news.

So Britain didn't move so fast!

And Zuo Peng didn't go around in circles and said the cabinet resolution.

After the original industrial illusion was punctured and shattered, the Ming Dynasty was all aware of the current urgency. So he was bent on developing science and technology to make up for the shortcomings in technology.

Not to mention catching up with the level of modern society, as long as it is three or five years ahead of this era. That's enough.

For example, in terms of production and quality, steel must at least catch up with the United Kingdom. In that case, there will be strong industrial strength. After all, steel is the foundation of industry, and it is most widely used in this era of strong ships.

As a result, the war in Nanyang had to be adjusted.

Originally, Da Ming still wanted to swallow Nanyang alone, but now he found that he had indigestion.

And since the start of the Ming war, all industries have begun to prepare for war, occupying a lot of resources. Whether it is manpower and material resources, it consumes a lot of money.

In addition, industry is the basis of national strength. The territory of the South Seas is placed there, and it will not run away with long legs. After a few years, Daming's industry will become large-scale, and it will not be too late to take it.

Just like when the Japanese army invaded China, the Kuomintang, the Kuomintang, and the Party exchanged space for time, slowing down the pace of the Japanese invasion.

This is the same as Nanyang!

After all, the territory of the South Seas is too big, and there are many Dutch colonies. It's not a year or two, don't think about purging it.

It is these factors that make Daming make strategic adjustments.

So the Ming Dynasty found Britain, which was still an enemy!

In 1786, the British occupied Penang in the Straits of Malacca and renamed it George Town. In a sense, it can be regarded as a bridgehead for setting foot in the South Seas, and it also shows the ambition of Britain.

However, due to the expansion of India's power, Britain has not been able to spare its energy and take care of the South Seas.

Now it's all right!

Da Ming was willing to make a birdie and fire the first shot against the Netherlands. And share a part of the profits, which is exactly in line with the British heart.

After all, the colonizer's urine and sex are always eating from the bowl and looking at the pot. In the dictionary, there is never the word 'satisfied'.

When Philip listened to Zuo Peng's conditions, he was also shocked.

According to the Ming Dynasty's idea, the Malay Peninsula in the South Seas was handed over to the British. The Ming took over Singapore, Sumatra, Java and other Dutch colonies.

The Maluku Islands, on the other hand, are carved separately.

Among them, Morotai Island and Halmahera Island, which were most of the later Indonesian North Maluku Province, were jointly administered by the British and the Ming Dynasty.

This is the famous Spice Islands!

After the Dutch took control of the area, they adopted a monopoly on trade. That huge profit has long been eye-catching!

Britain fought with the Netherlands for this.

It's just that the fleet of the South Seas is not strong and was defeated.

Such a big piece of cake makes you feel excited just thinking about it!

And the Ming Dynasty is not only pulling in the UK. Like Portugal, it was also promised benefits by the Ming Dynasty. That is, the Obiratu Island and the Bazhan Islands in the south of Halmahera Island will be carved out, and they will be jointly managed by Daming and Portugal.

This area is much larger than that of Timor-Leste. Although it is not as good as the benefits of exclusivity, the island is rich in spices!

That alone is much better than Timor-Leste.

After all, Timor-Leste is too close to Daming proper. From a safety point of view, it is full of inherent risks. And this land has been developed for hundreds of years, and all the gold that should be dug has been dug up. The city of Dili was burned down by a fire from the natives, and it was left behind to be rebuilt from scratch.

The amount of effort and money spent is really not worth it.

Therefore, Daming gave this condition to the Portuguese consul in Daming, and Prootto and the consul ran back to Portugal on the same day. Excited to inform the news is gone!

Of course, Da Ming was not well-intentioned. In the Northern Maluku Islands, where British and Portuguese colonies are so close apart that it is difficult not to have conflicting interests.

And Da Ming is in charge with them, so he can monitor them. No matter how much you have the intention to provoke, you are not afraid that they will unite together.

Philip didn't have the heart to think much about it.

Because he was also like the Portuguese, he was smashed by the 'big cake' of the Ming Dynasty! It's like a person suddenly winning millions of lottery tickets.

As for the military threat from the Netherlands, isn't there a Ming Dynasty? Britain will not be able to contribute to the work at that time, and the Ming Dynasty will not be able to take the UK.

But is Da Ming so stupid?

Those territories, since Daming can't get them, he will never contribute. Whoever takes something, Daming is not an international police officer, and he doesn't have that duty.

Moreover, the Dutch invaded the Malay Peninsula the earliest and had no weak control. Da Ming went to fight, and it took a while to bleed. And the Maluku Islands, for the same reason.

Da Ming, never do loss-making transactions!

But the big war has nothing to do with Philip, he just needs to facilitate this discussion. So much so that he suddenly felt that this captive was not in vain!

Otherwise, where can you find such a beauty difference?

Although on the issue of New South Wales, Daming and Britain still have conflicts. But under the cake of the Malay Peninsula and the Spice Islands, these conflicts are trivial.

Therefore, he also had the confidence to promote peace talks between the Ming Dynasty and the British.

Seeing Philip's fascination, Zuo Peng was full of contempt in his heart. But on his face, he asked in a soft tone: "Then Mr. Philip, when are you going to leave Daming?" ”。

Hearing this, Philip's mind also returned to reality. In an expectant tone, he said, "Minister Zuo, have I regained my freedom?" ”。

Zuo Peng nodded noncommittally.

So Philip didn't say much and quickly rushed back to the room. The wind and clouds gathered their luggage and ran out in a hurry.

Zuo Peng hurriedly stopped him and told him. Without his own leadership, he can't get out.

This made Philip's restless heart quiet a little.
