Chapter 1112: Zheng Zhilong's Hegemony Heart
Zheng Zhilong wants to say that he regrets it, and there must be it.
After all, Li Xiang, in his eyes, was an enemy that could be easily eliminated, and he actually turned over at this time. This was a big surprise to Zheng Zhilong's expectations, which made him secretly hate.
If he hadn't been so worried about it at the beginning, he would have solved Li Xiang in one go.
Now that Li Xiang has become the governor of Kyushu and has the support of the Song people, then his strength will definitely recover in a short time.
When the time comes, when Li Xiang's strength is fully restored, then the sea passage to Goryeo and the Wa Kingdom will never fall into his hands again.
There was nothing on the Goryeo side, but the gold-rich Wa Kingdom was very important to Zheng Zhilong.
Therefore, Zheng Zhilong will never let Li Xiang turn over like this!
He needed to stomp on the soles of his feet again when Li Xiang didn't fully recover his former strength.
But this time, Zheng Zhilong will not deliberately keep Li Xiang.
Inevitably has a lot of dreams at night, and he must completely solve Li Xiang before he can be willing.
Of course, before solving Li Xiang, what he Zheng Zhilong has to do is to test the strength of the Song people.
After all, Li Xiang is also a country, and if there is a problem, he Zheng Zhilong will not be able to deal with it.
It's not good, there is a big war between the two countries, and he, the person who provoked the war, will definitely be pushed out to bear the blame.
Therefore, in order to avoid such a situation, he needs to test the strength of the Song people and see if he can completely take down the Song people and Kyushu.
Of course, this is also the meaning of the elder in the court.
According to Ge Lao, that is, Zheng Zhilong can not use the Fujian Naval Division, but only use his Zheng family's fleet to attack Kyushu. If he can conquer Kyushu, then Ge Lao is willing to grant him a knighthood and Yongzhen Kyushu.
This is not a small temptation for Zheng Zhilong.
And the reason why the elder had such an idea. To put it bluntly, it's just because of desire.
The Wa Kingdom is rich in gold, which is something that everyone knows.
Kyushu is also one of the major areas rich in gold in the Japanese country, and the gold produced here accounts for one-third of the total gold mining in the country.
That's a lot of money.
If you occupy Kyushu, won't you be sitting on a mountain of gold?
If Zheng Zhilong can capture Kyushu, then everyone can sit on the ground and share the spoils.
Thinking about it, with Zheng Zhilong's cleverness, it is impossible to eat alone.
And there is no power to dispatch the imperial court, and there will be no trouble with this Song State that suddenly appeared. It's a big deal to push it on the pirates, anyway, it has nothing to do with the Ming Dynasty.
And voila!
What a shrewd idea.
The Ming Dynasty would not have a bad relationship with the Japanese people, but now Kyushu is not a Japanese people.
Kyushu today. Isn't it already ceded to the Song people by the Japanese court?
Therefore, in this place of Kyushu, whoever has the big fist can occupy it and dominate it.
However, for the sake of insurance, it is better to let Zheng Zhilong let him stay in the shadows, and now the fleet of the family, which is still trading pirates, should do this.
Something happened and pushed it on them, and no one could say anything about it.
It can be seen that everyone's abacus beads are very loud.
Chaozhong Pavilion always has his own thoughts, why doesn't Zheng Zhilong have another mind of his own.
Kyushu!
If only you could really get it down. Then it is equivalent to saying that the Zheng family has a territory of their own in the true sense.
At that time, there was nothing wrong with being a soil emperor in Kyushu.
The bigwigs in the court want gold, and they want their own territory, and everyone takes what they need.
As for the Song people...... Are they really as powerful as the rumors say?
Anyway for the rumored information. The elder of the court and Zheng Zhilong didn't believe it.
Even though he sent his men to Southeast Asia and learned some relevant information from the Franco, Zheng Zhilong still didn't believe it.
Grandma's!
Lao Tzu is the overlord of this sea, anyone who stands in front of Lao Tzu. Lao Tzu will kill them one by one!
Zheng Zhilong was ruthless in his heart, and whispered to himself.
When he was in the capital some time ago, Zheng Zhilong was moved by the huge benefits. Agreed with the elder's suggestion. He decided to start working on Kyushu, but he needed to test it before he could do it.
Regarding this point, Zheng Zhilong has already communicated with the elder.
On the other hand, it has also been understood by the elder of the pavilion.
As for whether the elder could really understand in his heart, Zheng Zhilong didn't pay attention to it at all.
The small life is your own, even if Kyushu is good and the benefits are great, but the premise is that you have your own life to have it.
Who wouldn't draw a pie?
Although the methods of the elder in the court were very ordinary, Zheng Zhilong could easily see the problem.
But who makes this matter so profitable?
So, even though it was a bit dangerous to know that this matter, Zheng Zhilong still decided to give it a try.
It's just that the premise is to first test the strength of Kyushu, if Kyushu is not vulnerable at all, then the next step must be that Zheng Zhilong will send all the fleets under his command to start attacking.
You can think of this even if you think about it with your ass.
In fact, those merchants of the Ming Dynasty who came from the Ming Dynasty brought back a lot of information. But there is one thing they overlook, that is, when the Song people faced off against the thirteen Kyushu daimyo in Kyushu, they only relied on less than 10,000 troops to defeat the coalition army with more than 150,000 people.
Such combat effectiveness is staggering to say.
It's a pity that those merchants in the Ming Dynasty left one after another when they saw that the Wa Kingdom was beginning to turmoil.
Therefore, they didn't know anything about the battle in Kyushu Maitreya.
If this information had reached the court of the Ming Dynasty and the ears of Zheng Zhilong, then they would not have such thoughts.
Even if you have a lot of boats, you always have to go ashore to actually occupy it.
But when you get to land, it's not easy to say.
With less than 10,000 soldiers and horses, the Song people defeated the Kyushu coalition army of more than 150,000 people, so isn't it easy to deal with you pirates?
Besides. With the ships left behind by Zhao Hongyu, after Zheng Zhilong sent the fleet to test the strength of Kyushu and wanted to come to understand it, he would let Zheng Zhilong know that the Song people in Kyushu were not easy to mess with.
It's just that if Zheng Zhilong does this, what kind of revenge will the Song people suffer in the future...... It's hard to say.
For all this, Zheng Zhilong definitely didn't expect it.
"Take Kyushu and lay a huge land for our Zheng family. At that time, the cabinet elder in the court will run for me, seeking an official position as the governor of Kyushu, and at the same time be able to obtain a good title. At that time, my Zheng family will be regarded as a complete glory to the ancestors. ”
Zheng Zhilong looked at his cousin seriously and said to him.
"Wealth is in danger, but I think that the Song people in Kyushu are not necessarily powerful characters. I hadn't heard of them before, and I guess the merchants were boasting about it. After all, you also know that many things will be distorted when they are passed around. Zheng Tianlang responded.
Zheng Zhilong nodded: "I can save this point, but there is no wind and no waves, and being careful can make a 10,000-year-old ship." We are not as good as we used to be, and it is not easy for me to seek the status and power I have now, so I always have to be very careful in my actions. What's more, I'm not alone either. There's still a big family behind me. ”
Zheng Zhilong said this, as his cousin Zheng Tianlang understood very much.
Alas!
Isn't that so?
Now, it's not time for them to be free pirates.
Behind them, there is a large family of people.
If they were alone, it would be nothing. But if there is such a large family behind him, he has to be cautious in doing things.
Because one is not good, it doesn't matter if they are unlucky, it will also affect their families.
It's the same as before. Pick some leaders and let them go to Kyushu to test the Song people. If the Song people are really as powerful as the legend says, then even if we don't want to, we have to give up Li Xiang. But once the Song people are a tiger...... Hey. Let's just eat them in one bite, and then create a huge family business for my Zheng family! ”
Hey, hey, hey!
Zheng Tianlang also laughed gloomily.
Of course, he knew what his cousin meant by picking a few leaders.
To put it bluntly, it is a means to exclude dissidents.
Although Zheng Zhilong has twelve leaders under his command, half of these leaders are not very good with Zheng Zhilong.
The reason why they gathered under Zheng Zhilong and obeyed his orders. That's just because of the situation, and I can't talk about how much I am afraid of Zheng Zhilong at all.
It's just that Zheng Zhilong is powerful at the moment, and they have to surrender.
Once Zheng Zhilong reveals his decay, then these people will open their mouths.
Zheng Zhilong himself knows this.
It just so happened that this was a good opportunity.
Let these people go to Kyushu to test Song and Li Xiang, if they succeed, then the benefit is still the greatest.
If you hit hard stubble, then these people will suffer a lot of losses.
When the time comes, you can easily solve these troubles.
As Zheng Zhilong's cousin, how could Zheng Tianlang not know this thought of his cousin.
"Don't worry, I'll take care of everything. So do I need to inform our Zheng family fleet to get ready? Once it's a paper tiger in Kyushu, we have to start faster. ”
Hearing what his cousin said, Zheng Zhilong nodded after thinking about it and said, "You can just look at this matter." ”
Then, after the two discussed it again, Zheng Tianlang said goodbye and left.
With Zheng Tianlang leaving, Zheng Zhilong sat in the tent and talked to himself.
Hehe!
Kyushu!
That's the territory of the king's business!
If I let Zheng Zhilong take it over, it won't be impossible to be the king...... (To be continued......)
