"The pure demons and foreign ghosts have colluded together to become enemies of our world... This is not a battle between family and country, but a battle between the world!

This is not only a fight between us and the Qingyao for the world, but also a fight between us, the Chinese people, and the Western Yi people!"

Outside the Chinese Army Hall of the Sanduao Camp, the field was filled with officers in red robes and yellow turbans, with long swords and empty hammers. They all stood upright and motionless. All they could hear was their heavy breathing. Everyone looked excited and eager to try.

Zhu Heji was also dressed as a saint and stood in front of the queue. Next to him stood the four representatives of the new Ming Dynasty: Zheng Jing, the king of Yanping, Chen Yonghua, the governor of the Nanyang Trading Company, Qiu Rong, the admiral of the Nanyang Navy, and Chen Shangchuan, the minister of war in charge of the navy.

The important ministers and generals who were managing the Southeast Asia. In front of them were hundreds of officers from the Fujian Navy (formerly the Zheng Family Navy), the Guangdong Navy (formerly the Qiu and Chen Navy), and the Huangpu Military Academy and Naval Department.

He had long known that the conflict between himself and the Westerners was inevitable, and that the conflict would be long-term.

Now is the climax of the Age of Discovery!

It was the golden age when Western civilization relied on strong ships and cannons to travel across the world and engage in zero-dollar purchases... It was also an era when Westerners established an order belonging to Western civilization in this world!

As the leader of Chinese civilization, as the guardian of East Asian civilization with Chinese civilization as its core, and as the heir to the order of the Celestial Dynasty, Zhu Heji was born to be the enemy of Western civilization!

To borrow the words of the late important minister Li Hongzhang, what Zhu Heji and the entire Chinese civilization and East Asian civilization are facing now is a major change that has not happened in three thousand years!

Yes, this great change that has not happened in three thousand years did not begin in 1840, but began with Columbus's discovery of the New World and Magellan's circumnavigation of the world.

Since then, the earth has begun to become a whole. It was originally scattered in every corner of the world, difficult to communicate with, and had never even communicated with civilization. It was suddenly pushed into an arena where the fittest survive and the strong develop.

The resources and wealth of the entire world are not enough for all civilizations to join hands and enter industrialization together.

The resources and wealth in this world seem to only allow some countries and regions in one civilization to first cross the threshold between agricultural civilization and industrial civilization... And now, Western civilization has already reached this point.

It occupies a great advantage in the industrialization competition among civilizations!

They have seized most of the "zero dollar purchase" market in the world, and have invaded the corners of Chinese and East Asian civilization!

And the Chinese civilization, the core pillar of East Asian civilization, has fallen into a long world war!

What is even more unfortunate is that the one who has the upper hand in this world war is not the main body of Chinese civilization, but the Manchu and Qing Dynasties from the corner of Chinese civilization...

The Manchu Qing Dynasty, which was lucky enough to take control of China in history, put most of its thoughts on preventing Han and fools. By moving borders and banning seas, it took the initiative to withdraw from this struggle between civilizations - of course, even if the Manchu Qing Dynasty did not

If we voluntarily withdraw from the struggle, Chinese civilization will not win. At most, it will only lose less.

And Zhu Heji is going to win!

Not only must we win the Chinese Empire, but we must also allow Chinese and even East Asian civilization to defeat Western civilization and be the first to cross the threshold of industrialization.

This is called a win-win situation, win the Manchus once, and win the West again.

Moreover, Zhu Heji also knew very well that he could not and did not need to compromise with the Westerners to gain their support.

Because Zhu Heji was a "seller of luxury goods", not a "seller of coolies".

Those who "sell luxury goods" have to raise their tail to the sky and act like I am awesome, I am advanced, I belong to the heaven. You must not kowtow to Westerners, otherwise the brand will be ruined, the brand will be ruined.

I can't sell it for a price.

Has anyone ever seen Pinduoduo, a luxury goods store, offering price reductions?

So now he must severely beat up the Western merchants and pirates who pretended to be the Southern Navy of the Qing Dynasty!

If you can beat them badly, then Ming Dynasty's perfume, porcelain, silk, tea, especially white, sugar cane wine, etc., will be better sold!

The Ming Dynasty won the war, which shows that these are good things from advanced civilizations, and they are not afraid that no one will buy them!

In addition, if we can beat up the Westerners who sneak in to interfere when we march into the south of the Yangtze River, we can also rebuild the prestige of Chinese civilization in the East Asian civilization circle and maintain our final base.

Although he, a great saint, has a lot of truth, he doesn't know how to tell the people below him... This is the loneliness of a prophet!

Thinking of this, he stopped saying words that everyone couldn't understand. He simply raised his hand and pointed at the "Putting the Way for Heaven" flag behind his back, and said loudly: "Take this flag and go to sea to seize the world that we Han people have lost."

Come back and seize back the lost territory of our Heavenly Kingdom... Let those foreign devils who don’t know how to die know who is the master of this world and the sea!

This is called acting on behalf of heaven!"

Most of the people below are heroes who have been doing justice for heaven at sea for many years, or they are second-generation heroes... good second-generation men! If you don't know anything else, how can you not know what it means to do justice for heaven?

This is the best deal in the world!

So the cheers started immediately.

"Long live the saint, he may do justice for heaven..."

"Do justice for heaven!"

"You will win only if you love to fight..."

...

Offshore Zhejiang.

The Dragon Banner of the Qing Dynasty and the Commander-in-Chief Flag of the Three Armies of the Nanyang Navy Admiral of the Qing Dynasty were dancing in the sea breeze.

This is the perfect weather with blue sky and blue sea. The sea breeze is not too big or too small, and the wind direction is just right. Seventeen "large warships" with a deadweight tonnage of more than 300 tons and 21 "large warships" with a deadweight tonnage of less than 300 tons.

A huge fleet of "speedboats" was rapidly heading south along the coastline of Zhejiang Province.

On the sea, the sails cover the sky and the sun, so mighty!

Originally named Batavia, it was renamed Dinghai Batuulu after joining the Nanyang Navy of the Qing Dynasty. It sailed at the forefront of the entire formation. Its bow plowed a white wave on the sea in Taizhou, Fujian, and its track was straight towards

East.

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! This large armed merchant ship is the flagship of Balteba Military Gate and is probably one of the most powerful warships east of Malacca. It has a 600-ton

The load tonnage is equipped with 24 large 12-pound long guns, also known as Hongyi cannons.

This kind of firepower is pretty good on the European battlefield.

There are two warships of this tonnage and firepower in the fleet commanded by Ba Junmen, and one is the Spanish Galen "San Angel", now called Zhenhai Batulu.

With these two Batulu ships, the Balteba military sect was naturally not worried about losing in the naval battle. However, Figo, who was sent by the Qing government to assist him in the battle, seemed a little uneasy. He stood in Dinghai Batu

When I was on the deck of the Lu, I kept looking around with my binoculars, looking a little nervous.

"Figo, what are you worried about?"

Bart, who was taking a leisurely walk on the back deck, walked up to Figo and said with a smile: "We have thirty-eight battleships, more than five hundred cannons, and nearly four thousand sailors... We have also mastered

Europe's most advanced battle line tactics, and our ship maneuvering skills are also better, we can always maintain a safe firefighting distance to avoid being hit by their sky mine rockets.

So there is only one question we need to consider now...that is, on what terms we should accept the Ming Dynasty's peace proposal! The cession of Taiwan and the monopoly of free trade may be suitable conditions. Figo, are you willing to serve as the

My messenger?"

"Of course," Figo said, "But... I'm still a little worried, and I can't understand why you Dutch are so obsessed with that desert island? If it's just for trade, you

There is no need for Taiwan at all. You can go directly to Guangzhou, Quanzhou, and Zhangzhou. Isn’t that better than Taiwan Island?”

Bart just smiled and shrugged: "Of course, we don't need Taiwan now... What we need is the Ming Dynasty supervisor to lower his head and recognize the rules we set and respect our work in Java.

islands, Malacca, the Philippines, and dominion over the southern seas.
