Chapter 1442: A backhand slap

"Davis, you, you're so shameless!"

Cohen gritted his teeth angrily, but there was nothing to be done, now the Dutch dominate in the South Seas, whether it is the English or the Spaniards, they are naturally not convinced, you know, in terms of national strength, the two countries do not have to be worse than the Dutch, why let you take the lead? Dream!

If given the chance, the three countries would not mind pulling the Dutch off the throne of the hegemon!

Cohen was completely scared, if he really tore his face and went to war with these three countries, he would definitely not be the opponent of the British, Spanish and Portuguese alliance, one against three, no matter how strong the Dutch were, it would be useless, not to mention that there was the Ming Empire next to him?

"Count Cohen, we Portuguese are not much interested in participating in the dirty relations between the Dutch and other countries, and we are not willing to be enemies of the Dutch, but you must also know that in the Oriental trade, the Dutch have always been the dominant family, even the official party back then is not as good as you, but they control the Oriental sea route, we have to pay a fee to Zheng Zhilong, so that Zheng Zhilong's strength is transcendent. Every year, the profit you make from Dongying trade is not less than two hundred taels of silver, right? Or even three million taels of silver! Do you want you to give two million taels of silver? Ben feels that you Dutch are taking advantage! ”

Wiman said in a deep voice.

Cohen was finally speechless by the three of them, but he was obsessed with this matter, unconvinced, absolutely unconvinced, obviously he had forced the Ming Empire into a corner, it was these three bastards, for the sake of temporary interests, they actually didn't want the biggest piece of cake!

"Do you really not want goods to enter the Ming Empire freely, without customs duties?"

Cohen asked unwillingly, "You know, Beijing City is only a hundred miles away from Tianjin Wei on the coast, if we take it by surprise and mobilize our fleet of four countries to besiege Tianjin Wei, one day will be enough to complete the landing on Tianjin Wei, and then, mobilize heavy troops, besiege Beijing City, and force the Ming Emperor to sign an alliance under the city!" ”

"Fake!!"

Dale roared angrily, "Cohen, don't bother us if you want to die!" We can't even do anything about the 60,000 Heavenly Heroes! You even instigated us to attack the city of Beijing? Dream! Do you know how many elite Ming troops were stationed near the city of Beijing? The Tianwei Army of the Four Towns plus the Jingying of the Two Towns added up to more than 100,000 troops! It's all the elite of a hundred battles! Didn't you see Kluivert's intel? The flowering cannons they saw in Nanyuan alone were thirty, and they were extremely powerful, and our infantry landed from Tianjin to besiege Beijing City, which was looking for death! If you want to die, don't pull us, Lao Tzu won't play with you! “

Dale is really angry, hundreds of thousands of elite Ming troops, don't say that they have such a small number of troops, even if they recruit all the infantry of the Dutch Kingdom, they are not the opponent of the Ming army!

"Cohen, you've been kicked in the head by a donkey, right? You don't know how many troops the Ming Empire has deployed in the capital? How many artillery pieces were deployed? ”

Zams was also extremely dissatisfied, "130,000 elites, plus no less than 200 artillery!" Can you eat it? Choke you, choke you! When your East India Company is killed by the Ming Empire, it just so happens that the fleet of the Kingdom of England can directly enter the Strait of Malacca and rob the territory of your Dutch! ”

"Me!"

Cohen was naturally a little unconvinced, and said ruthlessly: "The alliance of the four countries may not be just the 100,000 elites of the Ming Empire, it's a big deal to mobilize the domestic army or recruit mercenaries, in Nanyang and India, some poor people want to be hired by us, hundreds of thousands of taels of silver, we can directly hire tens of thousands of young people, and then tens of thousands of taels of silver, we can equip them with muskets, as for artillery, we have it in Nanyang, the four countries together, it is not difficult to make up two hundred artillery, right?" Lao Tzu would rather take out all the million taels of silver and prepare for the mercenary corps! ”

Dale and the other three all looked at Cohen with helpless faces, this kid is crazy, really crazy, God wants to destroy him, he must first make him crazy......

"Cohen, do you know how many troops there are in the Ming Empire? Even now that the Ming Empire is constantly reducing its army, the size of their army is still more than 600,000 people, 600,000 people, do you want to build a mercenary corps of 600,000 people? I'm afraid that your entire East India Company will be filled in, and it won't be enough......"

James shouted in hatred.

It's so much that it's just lard, and there are more people than the Ming Empire? According to the intelligence of the Westerners, the population of the entire Ming Empire has now exceeded 10,000, and it is even possible to hit a population of 120 million, if you organize 100,000 mercenaries, it is estimated that you will have to vomit blood, how can it be compared with the 600,000 regular army of others? I'm afraid that if I just landed on the territory of the Ming Empire, I will be beaten out by others......

"Your Excellency, Your Excellency the Governor!"

Staff Officer Van Gaal ran in from outside in a panic at this time, and said urgently: "My lord, Rijkaard is back and has brought the latest news from Dongying!" ”

Cohen raised his eyebrows and shouted, "Rijkaard? Order him in at once! ”

It didn't take long for Rijkaard to run in, and Rijkaard at this time was extremely embarrassed.

"Lord Governor, it's not good, the Ming Dynasty's chief inspector in Dongying and the Qinshan Shogunate suddenly opened a killing spree in Dongying, and dozens of daimyo were all eliminated by the Ming army and the shogunate army, and Dongying's country is already full of blood......"

Rijkaard snapped.

"Dozens of daimyo killed?"

The four of them were shocked, and a sense of foreboding rose from their hearts.

"What big names did you kill?"

Cohen asked sharply.

Rijkaard took a breath and replied: "In Dongying, all the daimyo who have contact with our four countries have been eliminated, all the direct lines of the daimyo have been beheaded, all the slaves have been rushed to the mines to do hard labor, and the dead warriors under his command have also been killed in large numbers, and in just a few days, more than thousands of people have been killed in various feudal towns in Dongying......

Shot!

It's the Ming Empire that has launched a counterattack, a fierce counterattack!

The four of them had such a thought in their hearts at the same time, they couldn't resist, they had no power to resist!

It's ridiculous, these people still plan to disintegrate the unstable position of the Aoyama Shogunate from within Dongying, and now it's okay, the Aoyama Shogunate and the Ming Dynasty didn't even have time to react to Shikoku, so the dark line arranged by Shikoku in Dongying was completely destroyed!

"What about our people?"

Cohen asked in a deep voice.

Rijkaard smiled bitterly: "My lord, dead, all dead, but anyone who participates in the affairs of rebellion, no matter which country, will not be killed, Aoyama Tadashi has a tough attitude, and those who dare to conspire to rebel will ......be killed."
