The Dutch fleet sailed through Malacca and was not attacked.

Even when picking up the governor, he went to Palembang in China to replenish once. War is war, business is business, and since the war is over, then giving money can supply fresh water and food.

In the cabin, Governor Rainiers said: "Batavia is gone, and the occupation of Ceylon will not compensate for this great loss." We have to make amends before we get the news from Headquarters. The port of Nagapatam in Portugal is not easy to fight, but Chittagong is relatively easy and there are only a few Portuguese and a few pirates. ”

Admiral Adland, commander-in-chief, said: "I'm afraid we won't be able to send troops, and we seem to have lost the war with the British." ”

"It seems?" Reyniers didn't understand.

"The other day, I came across a couple of French merchant ships and they brought the latest news from Europe," Edlan said. In the last naval battle, we were both defeated by the British, but our naval commander-in-chief was killed. Due to the siege of the city for half a year, prices in Amsterdam skyrocketed, food shortages, and it is said that many civilians died of starvation. We and the British are negotiating, and we are on the back foot in the negotiations. ”

Rainiers was shocked: "How can it be that even the British fleet can't win?" ”

"I was surprised, too, but that's the way it is," Edlane said. So I didn't dare to fight the Chinese fleet in a decisive battle, because at the headquarters, our fleet suffered heavy losses. If we fight the Chinese fleet again, even if we win, we will inevitably suffer heavy losses, and it will be difficult to replenish ships in the short term. At that time, China will gather its fleet again to kill, and I am afraid that we will not even be able to protect the Indian Ocean. Now our army is also insufficient, and we can only defend the existing colonies, and it is impossible to capture Chittagong again. ”

When Rainiers heard that the Netherlands had lost to England, he didn't feel much sadness, but a little bit of joy.

Isn't it a gross fault that I lost Batavia, and wasn't it a gross fault that the Netherlands lost to England? Everyone is half a catty, no one should laugh at anyone, in the face of the headquarters questioning, Lao Tzu can also shirk.

Rainiers said to Adlan: "When you get to India, throw those clerks and soldiers into the colonies in batches." We took our cronies and went to Colombo to rebuild the Governor's Palace. ”

"Aren't you going to Plicut? It is best developed there. Edran asked.

Reiniers shook his head: "It's because Plicutt has developed too well, and the local forces there are intertwined, and it is easy to be hollowed out after I go." Colombo, on the other hand, has just been established and the nativism has not yet taken firm roots. Ruled by Portugal for over a hundred years, Colombo was habitable for Europeans and was the best place for companies to be the Governor's Palace. ”

Batches of civilian and Dutch soldiers, thrown into the colonies on the east coast of India.

Rainiers landed in Colombo with his cronies and converted the Portuguese castle into a governor's palace, and Sri Lanka became the center of the Dutch East India Company's Asian domination.

……

Cebu.

After the loss of Luzon, it became the center of the Governor of the Philippines.

The new governor, Sabignano Manlique de la Lala, sailed from Spain to Mexico and then sailed to the Philippines to take up his post.

"You're finally here, hurry up and hand it over, I've wanted to leave this damn place for a long time." The current governor, Diego Fajardo Chacon, was relieved.

Sabignano asked, "What's the trouble?" ”

"Half of the Philippines is rioting, and these natives can't kill them cleanly," Diego said. Also, don't mess with the Chinese, the Netherlands is about to be driven out of Southeast Asia by China. ”

"Batavia was seized by China?" Sabignano asked.

"I don't know, but what I got is that the Chinese army has been besieging Batavia for almost two months," Diego said. The reason was that a vassal state of China had discovered a large gold mine, and the Dutch had sent troops to occupy it. ”

Sabignano gloated over this: "Those greedy Dutchmen deserve it!" ”

Diego said: "Leave the Dutch alone, I remind Your Excellency to apply for more troops as soon as possible. There was a rebel leader named Sumuloi, who instigated and led the indigenous rebellion, which had been going on for four years. Forgive me for my lack of ability, I really can't completely put down the rebels. More than 20,000 rebels were killed, but the number of rebels increased. ”

"A rebellion that lasted four years?" Sabignano finally realized the seriousness of the problem.

"More than half of the entire Philippines has rebels," Diego said. In particular, Mindoro is the closest to the Chinese island of Luzon. The natives of the island, killing the missionaries in the countryside, surrounded our colonial castle. For the first time, I sent troops over there and succeeded in killing more than 2,000 indigenous rebels. But the reinforcements were only half a year away, and the natives began to rebel on a large scale. As I was busy suppressing the rebellion in Sumuroy, I was unable to send troops to the rescue of Mindoro. The Spanish defenders in the castle, besieged for almost a year, starved to death. ”

Sabignano asked, "That is, Mindoro is now occupied by the natives?" ”

Diego nodded and said, "Yes, they also elected a Chinese to be the governor of the province." And the Chinese are holding a parliamentary vote to try to annex the entire island of Mindoro to China. ”

"The rebels on Mindoro must be suppressed immediately!" Sabinnano said.

Diego shook his head: "I can't draw enough troops, and there are at least more than 100,000 rebels in the entire Philippines who have elected Su Mu Luoyi as the leader to riot." In fact, Sumuloyi has already been killed by us. But to kill one Sumuroyi, more than a dozen Sumurai appeared one after another. ”

The leader of the rebel army named Su Mu Luoyi has obviously become the third prince of Zhu in the Philippines, and the rebels on various islands all use him as a signboard.

Whether China seized Luzon or not, the Philippines has been in revolt because of a brutal model of colonial rule.

The administrative structure of the Philippines is divided into three levels: provinces, towns and villages. In addition, there is a "fiefdom" model in which the king of Spain rewards someone to be a lord.

The lord could levy taxes, enforce conscription, and recruit native soldiers. They expanded their territory as they pleased, usurping indigenous or Han Chinese lands, and using forced labor to force the natives to continue to reclaim.

Most of these lords are missionaries!

While frantically exploiting the natives, it was accompanied by religious oppression, forcing the natives to convert to Catholicism.

The various indigenous villages were forcibly organized into towns.

The leaders of the village community, part of whom are colonial lords, and part of whom are indigenous doglegs. They form a town council and elect an indigenous puppet as the mayor, who is actually a scapegoat, causing a big mess and pushing it out directly.

The towns and cities are then formed into a province, and the governors are also making money like crazy.

Under the layers of exploitation, the natives could not bear it and rebelled one after another. Most of the Han people who could not live their lives chose to flee to Luzon, and a small number participated in the indigenous uprisings.

Let's put it this way, the Philippines under Spanish colonization had an average of one and a half uprisings every year and a half.

The Sumuloi uprising has been going on for four years and has quickly spread to half of the Philippines. In many areas, the Spaniards were confined to the city, and the suburbs became the territory of the rebels.

Moreover, the rebels became smarter and wiser, and the Spanish army went to conquer, and they immediately hid in the mountains or forests. After the Spanish army left, they came out of the mountains and forests to kill the colonial lords of the villages, and even the mayors and councillors, so that the governors of the Philippine provinces could not collect taxes at all.

Diego took his embezzled money, took a boat to Mexico, patted his ass and walked away.

Sabignano, the new governor, had no idea what to do with the mess of the rebels all over the country. He could only start the rebellion from Cebu, and called for encouraging Europeans to join the army, no matter what country it was, as long as they were Europeans.

Europeans can form private armies, and after quelling a rebellion in a certain place, that land becomes that person's territory.

As a result, these adventurers from Europe formed their own armies in groups of three or five. After gathering hundreds of people, they dared to go to the small rebel army, lay down a large area of territory and immediately divide the spoils.

And Mindoro, which is next to Luzon, the Spaniards really can't take care of it!

This island, which is more than a quarter of Taiwan's area, was elected as a provincial governor according to the Spanish system.

Before the castle of Batavia was breached, the Han governor personally took a boat to Manila and knelt down in front of Zhang Huangyan, the governor of Luzon: "Song Min, an overseas outcast, meet the governor of the Celestial Empire!" ”

Zhang Huangyan smiled and helped: "Hurry up, please get up." ”

Song Min stood up with the momentum, and then bowed his hand again: "Please send troops quickly and occupy the castle of Mindoro Island, don't let the Spaniards kill again." This time, the Han people and the natives on the island joined forces to drive the Spaniards away, and the Han people alone died hundreds of people, and the indigenous brothers died more than a thousand. ”

Mindoro Island, known as the country of Mayi since the Song Dynasty, was an important trading place for Han Chinese maritime merchants. Yellow wax, pearls, betel nuts, tortoiseshells, floral cloths and other specialties are produced here in exchange for Chinese porcelain, ironware and cotton cloth.

The record of the Yuan Dynasty's "Daoyi Zhiluo" is: "(Ma Yi country) the mountains are flat and wide, the river settlements, the fields are rich, and the climate is slightly warmer. Vulgar and Righteous ...... Barbarian bargained, led to pass on Boyi local goods, and then quasi-price foreign merchants, trustworthy as the end, as always, not to live up to the contract. ”

In other words, the mountains of Mindoro Island are gentle, and most of them are clustered as villages in the river valley. The climate is relatively warm and the land is very fertile. The indigenous people here advocate righteousness and have a tradition of martyrdom. Indigenous merchants, keeping their promises, negotiating the price, never change their words.

Zhang Huangyan asked, "Are the residents of the island willing to submit to Your Majesty?" ”

Song Min replied: "Yes." The inhabitants of the island, both Turkish and Chinese, hated Spain and admired China. Hearing that the imperial court treated the indigenous people of Luzon well, the indigenous people on the island all yearned for it. ”

Zhang Huangyan asked again: "How many Han people are on the island?" ”

Song Min replied: "There are about two or three thousand Han people (mostly mixed-race). ”

Zhang Huangyan thought for a while and said: "In this way, I will make my own decision to change Naminduluo Island to Mayi County, and Your Excellency will temporarily be a fake (acting) magistrate." After it was reported to the imperial court, it was transferred to the county. The county officials shall be arranged by Your Excellency. In addition, I raised 300 troops in Luzon and went to garrison the castle there. ”

"Thank you, Governor!" Song Min was overjoyed.

There is merit in dedicating the soil, and a county will definitely give. In order to rule the island stably, the officials arranged by the prefect will also be honored.

Well, it's every three years.

After two terms at most, the imperial court will send a rogue official to replace it, and it will gradually be brought into the actual control of the central government.

Datong China's expansion in the South Seas has been too smooth. As long as there is force as the backing, a bunch of subject countries will come to vote. Now there are even islanders who have revolted and directly donated their land to China.

It is really those Nanyang natives who have been oppressed too hard by the European colonizers, and they will think of turning to China at the slightest opportunity, and they will not be bullied if they take refuge in China.

When the European colonizers are all driven out, the situation will surely slowly change and become a contradiction between the Han Chinese and the natives. At that time, it will be an indigenous uprising, and there will be a rebellion against China.
