After making up his mind, Xie Xuelong looked at the opponent's warship and shouted:

"Bring the boat over, I'll go to the island to negotiate!"

The two trembling puppet soldiers were overjoyed when they heard this.

It's good to be willing to negotiate.

If you are willing to negotiate, you don't have to be cannon fodder, at least you don't have to die now.

They are really afraid of angering the other party, and they bombarded it with such a close distance, it is estimated that they will be bombarded into slag without even aiming!

After Xie Xuelong waited for the opponent's warship to slowly approach, he put down a rope ladder, nodded at Lu Shiyun, and slowly climbed down the ladder.

Lu Shiyun wanted to stop Xie Xuelong several times, but he wouldn't agree when he thought of his character, so he finally endured it. Watching Xie Xuelong jump onto the other party's deck, Lu Shiyun couldn't help but shout condescendingly.

"Listen! Give you an hour, and if you can't get them back after an hour, I'll raze the island to the ground!"

The two puppet soldiers nodded repeatedly.

Anyway, what you say is what you say, we are only responsible for bringing people back, and as for other things, we can't be the master, so don't kill us now.

Under the worried eyes of everyone on the ship, the warship slowly headed for Corregido Island. Xie Xuelong, who was standing on the deck, did not look the slightest timid, but looked at the two Ming merchants who were tied in their hands, and asked with a smile:

"How many years have you been in Luzon?"

"Master Hui, my name is Guan Heliang, and I have been in Luzon for twenty-three years. His name is Lu Dachong, and he is my fellow countryman, and he joined me the next year." Guan Heliang saw that Xuelong talked and laughed freely, secretly admired, and was very respectful when he replied.

"Judging by what you're wearing, I guess you're having a good time. How did you think of coming to Luzon to do business?"

When Guan Heliang heard this, he shook his head with a wry smile.

"Sir, you might laugh at it. If it weren't for the fact that he couldn't survive in Daming, who would leave his hometown and run away. Although I have made some money, if you look at it now, it is still just meat on someone else's sticky board."

"The current Ming Dynasty is different from previous years. Since His Majesty ascended the throne, many new policies have been implemented, and if you have the opportunity, you can go back and see it."

Guessing that there was a hidden secret, Xie Xuelong didn't say much, and the island of Koreshido was already close at hand.

Soon, their boat docked, and Xie Xuelong walked off the boat without hurrying.

The group of people on the island who were nervously waiting on the island breathed a sigh of relief when they saw him and looked at Franco.

Franco's heart beat violently a few times.

You made the right bet.

Although he didn't know the dress of the Ming generals, he could see from the clothes of the people who came that the other party's grade would not be very low. It seems that the other party attaches great importance to this matter, which shows that they still care about the life and death of these guys, and maybe they can use this to obtain greater benefits.

Thinking of this, he greeted him with a smile with an interpreter.

"Dare to ask the general's name?"

"Not worth mentioning. Who of you is in charge? Who am I going to negotiate with?" Xie Xuelong's face was grim, completely ignoring Franco, who was smiling all over his face.

"Right down there."

"Let's talk!"

"Uhh The general might as well move to the shed in front of him, the sun is so big, you can't stand and talk."

Xie Xuelong was silent for a moment, nodded, and followed Franco to a small shed.

Franco eagerly invited Xie Xuelong to sit down, and was about to say a few more idle words, but was interrupted by Xie Xuelong.

"Say it. How can we let these Mingren go?"

Seeing that Xuelong was so direct, Franco also put away his smile and said:

"It's easy for us to let them go! Retire!"

"Who's going to quit?"

"You guys! Zheng Zhilong! All the Ming armies and warships have left Luzon!"

"Hahaha! Do you think it's possible?" Xie Xuelong laughed when he heard this, and looked at Franco like a fool.

Belch...

Franco choked again.

Think about it, people went to great lengths to attack Manila, and gave up for the sake of a few thousand ordinary people who left Daming?

"Then we'll kill them all!"

"You can kill now, even me. Did you see those few battleships? Just waiting for you to do it, kill! Kill these people, and we will have no worries." Xie Xuelong stretched out his hand and pointed to the battleship not far from the island, stared at Franco and said coldly.

Franco was stared at by him for a while, and for a while, his momentum weakened.

"Since the general is here to negotiate, he can't take everyone away without paying any price, right? If you take people away with your front foot, turn around and continue to attack Manila, what can we do with you? Why don't you kneel down and beg you to stop fighting?"

Franco's words were quite sincere, and Xie Xuelong naturally understood that it was unrealistic to take these people away without paying any price.

"Zheng Zhilong is a senior member of the party, with a higher grade than me, and he is also the Tainan Bo personally appointed by His Majesty, so he will not obey my orders at all. All I could do was keep my fleet from attacking Manila. As for Zheng Zhilong, I can't control it. If you agree, let them go. If not, in any case, after an hour, seven of our warships will not hesitate to fire on the island. Explain, you, me, and the soldiers on the island will all be turned to powder."

Xie Xuelong's face was calm, as if he had looked down on life and death. But his words really scared Franco, damn it, I found a madman who didn't want to die to negotiate! Negotiate with you just to survive! Who the wants to die with you?

"The general may have done the Lord?"

"I am the overseer of His Majesty's own order, and this fleet was trained by me. You say I can't do it, Lord?" Xie Xuelong looked at Franco lightly.

"What?" Franco glared.

I thought that Xie Xuelong was a certain deputy of the fleet or something, but I didn't expect it to be the number one. This is a fish. If he is taken down, will it be more deterrent to Akito?

Thinking of this, Franco glanced at Xie Xuelong strangely.

Unexpectedly, Xie Xuelong pursed his lips and sneered as if he knew what he was thinking.

"I came to negotiate in person to represent sincerity. Since I dare to come, I will not be afraid of your tricks. Moreover, I do not believe that any intrigue can withstand our artillery! If you don't believe me, you can try."

As he spoke, he stretched out his hand and pointed in the direction of the battleship again.

Franco was debunked what he thought in his heart, but he didn't change color. Laughing and waving his hand.

"The general misunderstood, we Spaniards have always been the most trustworthy, how could we do such a dirty thing."

said this on his lips, but in his heart, he was thinking about Xie Xuelong's words. In any case, it is not easy to get the other side to make such concessions. However, if these warships do not attack Manila again, then Zheng Zhilong alone may not even be able to lift the skin of Manila. And his fleet, although numerous, was no match for his own.

Zheng Zhilong, there is nothing to be afraid of.

Franco thought so.
