Chapter 465: Ten Thousand Cannons Fired in unison

The Emperor of the Apocalypse smiled, noncommittal.

Wei Marang added: "I heard that the Ming has been attacked by the Jiannu people in the north, if necessary, I, the Netherlands, can provide military support for the Ming, if Your Majesty is interested in hiring our army, I think, we can defeat the Jiannu without much effort...... Your Majesty, cooperation is the only way to win each other. ”

As soon as these words came out, the officials behind them were even more furious.

The Emperor of the Apocalypse was still noncommittal, his mind at this time was not actually on the soldiers training on the beach.

In addition to the worries about the huge ships in the bay, the Emperor of the Apocalypse was thinking more about Zhang Jingyi's side.

Does that guy have the ability to give these Dutch people a little bit of power?

Seeing that the Emperor of the Apocalypse did not say a word, Wei Malang said, "Your Majesty, you can take a good look at the power of our gunboats later." ”

Zhang Jing sat on the sidelines, bored, completely ignoring the eyes of others.

The two hundred infantry of the Netherlands are still conducting drills.

However, Zhang Jingyi has to say that the level of these Dutch mercenaries is still good.

Wei Malang saw that the Emperor of the Apocalypse ignored him, so he came up again and said: "Your Majesty, in fact, we are overseas, and we also have a lot of cooperation with many Han merchants. ”

"Overseas Han merchants?" The Emperor of the Apocalypse suddenly became interested, so he said, "Is it my remnant of the Ming Dynasty who was exiled overseas?" ”

Wei Malang shook his head: "There are also many people who are the people of the Ming Dynasty. ”

As soon as these words came out, the color of the officials behind them changed.

It's just an ordinary conversation.

But it made the Emperor of the Apocalypse's eyes sink: "My Ming Dynasty has always banned the sea, where are any Ming people doing business overseas, I think it's just a group of outlaws." ”

Wei Marlang thought it was a little strange.

Fugitive?

"No, no, no, I'm talking about serious merchants, with whom we have always had a great deal of merchandise, if not, who trafficked in so much silk and porcelain? They have worked with us for a long time and they know our goodwill......"

The Emperor of the Apocalypse pulled his face down, and then glanced at Zhang Jingyi before he said, "Is it the exchange of bulk commercial goods?" Who are they? ”

"This ......," Wei Marlang finally felt that something was wrong.

The Emperor of the Apocalypse continued, "If you trade, how much porcelain and silk do you trade on weekdays?" ”

"That's a lot." Wei Marang said: "Large-scale, even a few ships also have. ”

"Is it a large sea vessel?"

"Of course."

The Emperor of the Apocalypse snorted coldly.

Wei Marang didn't know why the Emperor of the Apocalypse was furious.

However, there are hundreds of officials in the back, and many people's faces have become extremely difficult to look at.

Fools understand that it is certainly not ordinary Han merchants who can conduct large-scale transactions in this way, and these Han merchants can trade on a large scale, which shows that they can buy goods in the hinterland of the Ming Dynasty almost without scruples, and swagger the big merchant ships into and out of the ports of the Ming Dynasty.

The problem is that the Ming Dynasty used to be forbidden to the sea.

Even if the sea ban has been opened recently, in fact, it is only an official sea trade, and for ordinary people, they still pursue the strategy of not going to the sea.

At that time, there was a fierce debate around the sea ban, and the vast majority of ministers said that the sea ban was the law of the ancestors and could not be opened!

Even if they had to open the sea in the end, they believed that ordinary people should not be allowed to go to the sea, lest these people collude with pirates and harm the people on land.

But now listen...... It turns out that the so-called forbidden sea of my Ming Dynasty to prevent the people from going to the sea is actually a virtual reality.

So who is doing the bulk trade?

The Emperor of the Apocalypse is not a fool, a person who can have this ability can be so rampant that even the Sea Road Inspection Department can't ban it, so the only possibility is that someone is secretly doing a big deal by taking advantage of the sea ban.

The Emperor of the Apocalypse said lightly: "It is strange to say, all the princes in the court and the central government, everyone is against civilian ships going to sea, but why are there so many civilian ships selling silk and porcelain?" ”

His words obviously had ulterior motives.

Zhang Jingyi sat quietly on the side, and at this time, he finally spoke loudly: "This is not simple? Only by prohibiting other people's civilian ships from going to sea, they can rely on their own power to collude with the government to go to sea, and only then can they obtain monopoly profits. If everyone could go to sea, their silk and porcelain would not be able to sell for a price. ”

Zhang Jingyi deliberately said loudly.

It seems to be straightforward.

When the Emperor of the Apocalypse heard this, he was furious and snorted coldly: "Despicable! ”

The ministers were all silent, and some became embarrassed.

The Emperor of the Apocalypse said: "But I never knew that my Ming Dynasty had such a long ability, it stands to reason that such a big deal is done, and no one has reported it, it can be seen how rampant these people are, and the court has raised so many officials, it is useless." Or...... Could it be that if it is not the minister of the DPRK and China, someone is also involved in this matter? ”

Wei Marang stood aside, silently watching the show.

In fact, his intention is obvious, but it is just to expose the so-called myth of the Ming Emperor.

You see, the Ming Emperor has no ability to restrain his subjects at all, and now, my Dutch ships are strong and have elite soldiers, and I have signed this alliance under the city.

Right now.

A eunuch sang: "Your Majesty, noon has arrived." ”

Wei Marang's body shook, and the corner of his eye glanced at the Emperor of the Apocalypse.

But at this time, sure enough, the flags began to rise on the four big ships.

"Your Majesty the Emperor, our drill is about to begin."

Wei Malang's body was shocked, and he hurriedly said: "Please Your Majesty pick up the binoculars, so that you can see more clearly." ”

The Emperor of the Apocalypse said lightly: "No need, I look at it like this." ”

Sure enough, the four big ships moved, and they began to raise their sidesails and adjust the ship's scheduling.

And then, just when everyone was curious.

Jerked......

Countless swarthy gun muzzles peeked out from the hulls of the four gunboats.

Four gunboats, more than 300 guns exposed hideous muzzles.

But at some point, suddenly, there was a boom......

Although the gunboat was only in the harbor.

But the sudden volley of artillery suddenly made the entire high platform chaotic.

It's too powerful.

I saw that on the hull of the ship, the dense cannon muzzle suddenly erupted a tongue of fire.

Immediately after, countless fireballs flew out.

As if with the power to destroy the world.

The ministers were caught off guard.

Some people looked up in horror at the fireball...... It's flying in this direction.

Suddenly, my mother screamed, her face was as frightened as earth, and she was busy lying down in embarrassment.

The Emperor of the Apocalypse had been sitting still.

He watched motionlessly as the countless fireballs burst through the sky, and under the clear sky, a rain of fire rained down like meteors.

Under this high platform, the eunuchs and guards accompanying them also began to be chaotic.

Only Wei Marlang, who had foreseen it, pursed his lips and smiled.

The Emperor of the Apocalypse sat in place, stunned for a moment, and when he saw that the scene began to be chaotic, he was the first to react, and suddenly shouted: "Give me calm!" ”

A loud shout.

finally made the ministers and eunuchs who were a little flustered reluctantly calm down.

Zhang Jingyi sat on the side and watched, his face was already murderous, and his eyes flashed with sharp light.

And the rain of fire finally fell.

Immediately afterwards, hundreds of them smashed accurately into the dock at Dagukou.

At this time, the Dutch gunboats could not shoot too far, so although they came to the high platform, in fact, their bomb landing points were ports and docks.

In an instant, I saw that the buildings on the pier were ruthlessly destroyed by countless fires and rains.

There were even some foot forces and merchants who stayed on the docks, and suddenly disaster fell from the sky, and then they were buried in a rubble with the rain of fire.

The entire dock, after the salvo, has been devastation, fortunately the Emperor of the Apocalypse is here today, so the vast majority of the people on the dock have been evacuated, but even so, there are still a lot of casualties.

Up and down the platform, everyone looked at everything in front of them in shock, but there was nothing they could do!

The Emperor of the Apocalypse sat on the spot like a statue, and then, with a pair of eyes like sharp blades, he looked at Wei Marang sharply, and shouted: "You dare to attack my border? ”

Wei Malang immediately said: "Wan Death, I didn't know in advance, this must be the artillery lost its accuracy, so it caused such an accident, I beg Your Majesty to forgive me!" ”

"For this misunderstanding, the Netherlands is willing to compensate for all the losses, the dock here, we are willing to rebuild, and for the casualties, we are also willing to provide sufficient compensation, please don't blame Your Majesty."

At this point, everyone can see it.

It's definitely a threat, a naked, naked threat.

A round of artillery directly razed this huge pier to the ground!

What does this mean? It shows that the strength of the Dutch ships has increased day by day, such a powerful force, if the Ming Dynasty fights with it, the other party is at sea, even if the Ming Dynasty has a million heroes, I am afraid that it can only look at the ocean and sigh.

The Dutch people can swagger in and out of any port of the Ming Dynasty, causing irreparable consequences to the Ming Dynasty at any time.

On the other hand, in addition to the naked threat of force, Wei Marang also tried his best to show humility, and was full of surprises, misunderstandings and other words, which was obviously a step for the Ming monarchs and ministers at any time.

The Emperor of the Apocalypse was not stupid, so he naturally saw through the other party's tricks, so he sneered and said, "You are starting a war against my Ming Dynasty, have you ever thought about the consequences?" ”

"Don't dare." Wei Malang said: "Please believe that Your Majesty is here with good intentions, about this misunderstanding, we will clarify later, and we will definitely give Your Majesty an explanation!" ”

Wei Marang's attitude was sincere, but his words were meaningful: "I am convinced that Your Majesty will never have a conflict with the Netherlands because of this small accident, and once a war starts, it will not benefit Your Majesty or the Netherlands." ”
