Chapter 336: Returning the Favor

There is no room for two tigers in one mountain, and it is not a day or two that Bougalau and Simão are not happy with the Spaniards entrenched in Manila. It's just that the strength they have at hand is more than enough to defend themselves, and the strength of the Spaniards is about the same. In the two times, it is basically a situation where whoever moves and who loses, so I have to acquiesce to the other party's savings.

Pull Da Ming into the water and ask Da Ming to help him clean up the Spanish pirates, which is the unanimous goal of the Portuguese. It's just that this goal is not easy to achieve. There are still a large number of fishing boats in Guangdong's naval divisions, which can be used to fight coastal defense warfare, but if they go on expeditionary operations, they will lose more and win less.

Of course, my Daming Sailor is invincible and invincible in the world. Even if there are only one or two fish boats, as long as they go around Manila, they can scare the Spaniards into breaking their hearts and burning the boat and sinking themselves. However, my Daming house is kind-hearted, I can't bear to kill more, I believe in harmony, and this sailor can still not be sent.

Li Yanqing's official is only a county order, and he does not have the courage to start a war lightly. It is a dare to knock on the spaniard's stuffy stick and press a certain Spanish female pirate under him, but if he is allowed to lead his troops to kill Manila and pick the Spanish headquarters in the Far East, he will never dare.

Besides, Portugal may not be much kinder than Spain. It's just that after being taught by Daming in Tuen Mun at the beginning, I understood the truth of being a man, and knew that Daming should not be insulted, and he would definitely be smoked if he did it. Spain's storage zài is more conducive to controlling the Portuguese at this stage, and it is not in his interests to defeat Manila.

What kind of nerves did this Spaniard have, why did he actually want to declare war on the Ming Dynasty? Since the last time he sold a large amount of tribute satin, Bugarao has become a famous businessman in Europe. I don't know how many people tell the story of this hard-working and brave adventurer in the Far East. There are countless young men with dreams, following in the footsteps of their ancestors. Towards Macau.

These people have a complex background, and they actually stole a copy of the military plan submitted to King Charles V by the Spanish governor in Manila not long ago. It was given to Bugarao as important information.

The person who stole the information was naturally a close confidant of the King of Spain and a loyal man of the Kingdom of Spain. According to him, "I can't put my country in danger because of the plans of some madmen." It would be a crime against everyone to not allow my homeland to go against such a vast empire. ”

The fact is that the dear minister had just invested a large sum of money in Bugarao's business. If the trade route between the Ming and the West is really cut off because of the war, he will lose all his money. The state can suffer, but it cannot suffer. This top-secret information appeared in the hands of Bugarao. And Bu Jialao sent it to Li Yanqing again.

Li Yanqing looked at the thick plan, and expressed his righteous indignation, which fully showed the strong condemnation of this barbaric behavior by a Ming loyalist. "It's all a mess, and the handwriting is so bad. Can you still win the battle with this broken word? When you look at it, you get angry. Bu Yangren, I command you to read it to me. ”

At the beginning, Archbishop Carneiro sent Li Yanqing textbooks to learn the language, but those thick parchments were all used by Li Yanqing as torture tools for the officials, how could he know these words. Bugarao had to patiently explain to him the contents of this plan.

The drafter of the proposal. His Excellency Alfonso, the Spanish Governor in Manila, drew up a detailed plan for the conquest of the Ming Dynasty based on his own knowledge of the Ming Dynasty.

It included the mobilization of about 25,000 troops, including Spanish regulars, Japanese ronins, Filipino natives, prisoners, American slaves, and mercenaries, at military expense of 200,000 pesos. With water 6 and marching together, attack the Great Ming Dynasty, and the location of the attack is Guangzhou.

In this proposal. In addition to the military action plan, it also included a strategy of cultural invasion. For example, Catholic priests were sent to carry out large-scale missionary missions, so that the people of the Ming Dynasty could be converted to become Christians. Join the war against the pagan Emperor Ming.

Spread the Catholic doctrine and peace intentions to the Chinese, so that the Chinese people understood that the conquest was the shackle to free the Ming people from the shackles of cruel rule. Help the people of the Ming Dynasty to seek happiness, so that the Ming Dynasty surrenders without a fight.

Of course, Li Yanqing also noticed that when Bu Jialao introduced the plan, it included the text of taking Macao as the offensive direction and supply base. He also introduced the wealth that Macao now has, which can be used as a source of pay to solve some of the pressure on military salaries for Spain.

Obviously, this article in the plan stimulated Mr. Bugarao's nerves. It is believed that if a decisive battle with the Spaniards is ordered at this time, both he and Simão will charge forward and take the lead.

It was precisely because of the preservation of this article that Bu Jialao sent the plan to Li Yanqing. Alfonso had great ambitions, and he was bent on establishing his hegemony in the Far East.

But at present, the establishment of the East India Company is tantamount to snatching food from him. In addition, in this plan, he clearly proposed that the Philippine Governor would be the head of the 6th Army, and the Philippines would be used as a supply station, preparing money, food, and materials, and hoarding luxury goods as capital to make friends with the Ming officials and people in the future.

Li Yanqing is best at this kind of thing, which is good at money, food, military food and luxury goods, but it is a first-class fat shortage. Even if you talk about conscience, you can make a lot of money. Monsieur Alfonso was a man of great tact, considering for Spain how to conquer the vast empire and reaping political capital and real money for himself.

"Your Excellency, this is an affront to the dignity of the Great Ming Empire. In my opinion, these stupid barbarians should be punished severely. If the Ming Empire can send a fleet of comparable size, we are willing to act as a vanguard and guide. Let's draw our swords in order to restore order here. ”

"Draw the sword, this is the time to draw the sword. However, this plan is still only a plan, and there is still a long way to go before it is implemented. When they really do it, Da Ming will naturally give them a fatal blow. Even if the Ming didn't do it, the East India Company would teach them a lesson. I've written down your kindness, but you must arrange for me about those craftsmen. In this, a big man can be involved. ”

He gave the plan to Ryanstein, and asked the Ruiyang people to spend a lot of money to hire a few good gentlemen to write it in Chinese characters. The important part of this intelligence is not that the conspiracy of the Spaniards was revealed in advance, but that it showed the powerful intelligence power of Jinyiwei, even Spain has our people, what other information is there that we don't know?

Ryanstein also knew that it was a credit from the sky, and grinned and laughed. reciprocated the peach, and he naturally had to make up for it, "I heard that after the dragon and phoenix twin heroes fought Xu Tianpeng, you are going to release Ye Feihuan?" Do you want me to arrange a few reliable people to turn that extraterrestrial dragon into a dead dragon? (To be continued!)
