Section 491 Temasek
Shira-nae smiled with a cruel smile.
"I'm not interested in you being willing to discuss with women in remote villages who need comfort whether you are strong men or not. But in that case, no one should attack you. However, wolves eat meat, and dogs only eat what others discard. ”
With a snap, the sound of neat knives coming out of their sheaths, and three hundred Japanese men stuck their knives in front of them.
"Very well, I am satisfied with your choice. Next, I will arrange for three people to be your backup, and they will help you when you encounter the enemy who is really embarrassing you. Of course, the price of the sale is to reduce the rewards and dividends given to you. The white crane took a step back and motioned for Mo Long to move forward.
"This one will be in charge of your supplies, and all the qiē you get in exchange for food, wine, weapons, gold and silver. These can be kept in your possession or sent back to your families. You know my rules, I won't take advantage of you, if you are dissatisfied with the price, I will talk to you personally! ”
Three hundred people saluted neatly, and the white crane was a terrible person, so that the wealth in the eyes of people was calculated in terms of the country.
A few pieces of gold are just grains of sand in such noble eyes.
The samurai led by the Japanese and Mo Long exchanged salutes, and Mo Long stepped aside.
"This, with 10,000 people, he wiped out 50,000 people in a few breaths, why is he so strong, when he really needs to make a move, I hope to find a strong enemy that is enough for him to deal with, too weak to be worth the dividends you pay."
Fan Liang doesn't need to pretend, he is a hundred generals himself, and he feels like a very powerful general in terms of temperament.
The confidence of the Japanese people began to rise slowly.
"The last word of caution is not to mention who you are, and don't mention Daming. You have no identity for the time being, until the Ming Dynasty officially declares war. You don't have any identity, and if you want to say who you are, then call yourself a pirate. And then the third, when I encounter a truly invincible enemy, she will face any strong enemy on my behalf. ”
Hua Mei slowly moved forward from the end, and then slowly removed the big hat of the cloak. Then throw the cloak whole on the ground.
Wow......
It was so neat that all three hundred of them knelt on one knee, this armor, this dress, and the silver visor.
Hua Mei gently took off her visor, that is, put it back on after a few breaths.
Sagara Dragon King! There is definitely no one of the strongest pirates in history in the hearts of the Japanese people.
Hua Mei didn't say a word, and when she bent down to pick up her cloak, the Japanese warrior led by the Japanese rushed over quickly. Picking it up, still on one knee, he held the cloak high with both hands.
Hua Mei slowly put on her cloak, and then placed a single short musket in the hand of the widow.
Hua Mei turned around and left, not saying a word from the beginning to the end.
Mo Long was shocked, could this be an authority representation? Does this mean that people are scared when they say their names?
Mo Long didn't understand, only the white crane knew. Hua Mei didn't like these rough Japanese people from the bottom of her heart, so she never talked to them. It is also this arrogance that makes Huamei even more mysterious.
Four days later, off the coast of Temasek, the Shagalo anchored.
A small boat approached Temasek, and the messenger carried a letter with only a black skeleton on it. This is the unanimous opinion of the Japanese people, and a small port is also worthy of them to use the Sagara Dragon King insignia.
Temasek. This is a transliteration. The original meaning in Javanese is 'sea market', which served as a place for countless pirates to trade, rest, and replenish. Of course, it is also the place where the dirt in their hands is shot, so it is called Haishi. The name has been passed down for hundreds of years, and back hundreds of years ago, it was already a pirate's paradise.
"Explain the intention!" A sentry blocked the messenger.
The messenger unbuttoned his clothes, and the black cloak was embroidered with a white skull: "We are pirates!" Come and talk to the chiefs here. And send a letter from our chief! ”
The sentry did not dare to call the shots, and after going back to ask for instructions, he brought the messenger to the market.
"Can you rule on behalf of this place?" The messenger was polite with a mouthful, and the other man stuck a knife on the table, which was very obvious, so don't speak in such a tone here. The tone of the credible envoy was even more arrogant: "If you think you can represent everyone here, then please pick up your sword and declare war on us!" ”
"Bring the letter!" The other stretched out his hand.
The messenger smiled and took out a letter from his personal side, but instead of handing it to the other person, he placed it on the table.
"Please tell everyone here, tomorrow at sunrise, you will decide your fate for yourselves!" The letter remained on the table, and the messenger turned to leave, two knives resting on his neck. The Courier didn't react or speak again, just spread his hands out with a smile on his face.
The letter was still on the table, this was the leader, but not for all the pirates here.
He took the knife and pressed it against the courier's throat, who was still smiling.
"You're going to die, don't you say something?"
"Tomorrow at sunrise, you will decide your own fate, and my life and death will not affect this." With that, the messenger's hand flipped quickly, snatched the sharp knife and slashed through the neck of the man on the left, and then plunged the sharp knife into the chest of the one on the right, and continued: "In the same way, their life and death do not affect whether I can leave or not!" ”
The pirate leader's face turned white, and he quickly grabbed the letter and glanced at it, which had seven different words on it. All the words are only four words, surrender or die!
"Send him away!"
The messenger straightened his clothes, pushed away the corpses on either side, and said as he went out: "The best way to surrender is to kneel on the beach before sunrise." ”
Off the coast of Temasek, the messenger returned to the ship. He said to the leader of the Wa people, "I hope they will refuse tomorrow, I have seen a lot of riches, and a young woman, and a lot of gold and silver!" The leader of the Japanese people nodded: "Go back and rest, tomorrow the Dragon King Banner is not lowered, and it is absolutely not allowed to stop." ”
"Hahayi!" All the Japanese responded in unison.
On Mo Long's flagship, Bai Minghe and Mao Sheng were sitting on the deck drinking wine. Mao Sheng asked Bai Minghe: "Do you want them to surrender or fight?" ”
"I don't care, this game is not mine. All I want is Temasek's control and all the rights to the sea outlet in Malacca, and the rest has nothing to do with me. When Bai Minghe said this, he suddenly patted his head lightly: "I forgot an important thing!" When I went out of Nanjing, I forgot to find a few merchants who received the goods, and the goods they stole always had to be bought by someone, otherwise they wouldn't be rotten in their hands. ”
"Easy to do!" Mao Sheng turned around and shouted, "Mo Long, come here!" ”
Mo Long, who was sitting on the top deck and looking at the sea, turned over and arrived in front of Mao Sheng from a high place.
"Moron, a good errand for you. Haven't you had some small merchants there who have been doing a good job lately and let them come here to receive their goods. Then Lao Tzu just asked for a waterway for you, and the ships on your side can take goods to Daming and do some small business. Just pay your taxes according to the rules. ”
After Mao Sheng finished speaking, he looked at the white crane.
It doesn't matter if the white crane is white, you don't need to think about this trivial matter at all, who doesn't accept it.
What's more, if you want to let the aborigines of Little Luzon integrate into the Ming Dynasty, you naturally have to give them some opportunities. For example, seventy percent of the rough processing of scorched hemp raw materials is carried out by Little Luzon's own merchants, some of whom have accumulated a lot of wealth, and the highest net worth is estimated to be 100,000 taels of silver.
"Thank you, sir!" Mo Long thanked Mao Sheng.
He knew that this must have been promised by the white crane, but he was a little afraid of the white crane and was very nervous. The people of Mo Long's fleet were still laughing at the Japanese people just now, laughing at their ignorance, they are really ignorant and meaningless, they are afraid of Huamei, but they don't know that Huamei's horror compared to the white crane is the difference between matches and forest fires.
Because the Japanese people didn't know the Battle of Mobei, and they didn't know Huamei's true identity.
At this time, Hua Mei was wearing a light gauze dress, and she was sitting in her own cabin chatting with people, and the two women sitting in her cabin, one was Qinghe and the other was Wan Xue'er.
Qinghe has changed his name to Hua Mei as his sister, after all, Hua Mei is now the official canonized general of the Ming Dynasty.
"Here, here, here!" Michelle Wan pointed to three points on the map, namely Temasek, Malacca City, and Jakarta City. "Huamei, we don't need pirates, what we need is the entire South Seas. Anything that stands in front of the young master can only become dry bones. ”
"Sister Xue'er said that Hua Mei understands, but once I make a move, I will be seen, and at the moment, the relationship between my fleet and the Daming Navy Division is only a thin window paper. And the Japanese are just inferior bandits, they can't attack the city and occupy the territory, the young master's idea may be wrong this time, I estimate that it won't take more than a year, General Fan will make a move, and I will also participate in the war, at most two years, even General Deng will join. I have to admit that Hua Mei still has a very in-depth analysis of the shape in front of her.
"Silly girl, that's not what you need to worry about." Wan Xue'er gently touched Hua Mei's head.
Hua Mei seems to like this feeling very much, some people care and some people hurt.
Qinghe also said: "Giving you the best boat is to keep you safe." Once we find that there is a powerful one, let's run back, and the Daming Shui Master will be responsible for dealing with it. ”
"Sister Qinghe, we have a strong ......" Hua Mei really couldn't accept this, but her tone couldn't be tough.
Qinghe's words Hua Mei listened to it and was still very useful in her heart, she knew that Qinghe was for her good, as for the matter of fighting and killing, Qinghe was obviously not suitable to listen.
And Hua Mei is still looking forward to having the short-sighted one to let her try the peak combat power of this new ship. (To be continued......)
