However, now Shang Yi has no time to care about Li Huamei. Because Duan Peng told him that in the captives of the pirates rescued, someone wanted to see him and said that there was a confidential event and reported it to him.
Shang Yi first froze, then nodded, and said, "Okay, bring them all to see me."
Soon after Duan Peng went, he immediately led a dozen people. There were old and young, men and women, and there were a few western people. Shang Yi said: "You don't have to be afraid.
... "
His words have not been finished. There are six or seven people in the middle of the crowd kneeling on the ground, frequently hoeing, one of which is about forty middle -aged men in horror.
Fishermen who fisher in fishing! They were caught by the pirates, saved the master, let us go. "And one of the girls cried in scared.
Anno.
At the beginning, Shang Yi felt somehow. I don't know why they were scared like this, but they immediately understood that this must be scared by the government and the Ming army. So he helped the middle -aged man and said, "
Don't be afraid, do we not bully the people, what are the words? Slowly say it? Where are you from? How do you be caught by the pirate? "
Duan Peng and other soldiers also helped say something good, probably to see their attitude, and these people gradually settled down. The middle -aged man said his experience.
It is a fisherman who lives on the sea in Zhejiang and Fujian. Fishermen who live in fishing, pearls, and salvage water products.
There is no name, most people call her He Ye, or He Gu. The other five young people Wu Afu's three sons, two daughters, and one of the son -in -law. The eldest son is Wu Dahai, the daughter is Wu Sang, the son -in -law is He Sha
, The other two sons and daughters have no surnames, but according to order, one is called Primary Three, the other is Xiao Wu, and the daughter is called Siya.
Because their family went out to fishing yesterday, chasing a team of fish tide, but forgot the journey, they hit this group of pirates, the family of seven was caught, and the fishing boat was sinking by the pirate.
In the cabin.
After listening, Shang Yi looked at several of them, his skin was dark, his clothes were dilapidated, and the Wu Quanfu couple had a color on the face.
Both daughters did not know what to apply, black, probably afraid of being pirate **. It should not be a lie.
Shang Yi suddenly asked: "Are you an eggmate?"
Wu Yongfu stunned for a moment, and said timidly: "If you return to the big master, we are indeed an egg people."
Shang Yi nodded. He knew that eggs were a collective name for residents of water residents in ancient Chinese coastal areas. They all belonged to the Han nationality. They existed before the establishment of the new China in the future.
There are also distribution along the coast of Zhejiang. However, in ancient China, the households were excluded from the "four peoples" and belonged to the type of pariah. They were only allowed to live on the water, not allowed to settle on the land, not allowed to read, literacy, should be tested, should do, do it, do it, do it, do it, do it, do it, do it, do it, do it, do it, do it, and do it.
Officials, what is not allowed to marry the Han people, etc. Therefore, although there are a few eggs who can rely on fishing, beads to live a good life, they can go ashore and settle, but they are the lowest levels of society.
There is also a certain social and political status, and the egg people have always been oppressed and exploited.
No wonder the Wu Yongfu family heard that Shang Yi was the chief soldier, so scared his head like a chicken pecking rice. Although they did not know how big the general soldiers were, the county magistrate was the official who knew the biggest. With so many soldiers, it is estimated that it must be much larger than Zhixian County. It can be not afraid.
Shang Yi said again: "Well, you go to rest first. After the things here are processed, I will let you go home." Turned his head and said to Duan Peng again: "See they have not eaten one day, If you find food on the pirate ship, give them a little bit. "
Several people all gave Shang Yi a few heads and followed Duan Peng to the side.
At this time, Shang Yi's eyes looked at the other three Chinese people, because Duan Peng said that when he saw that he had confidential events, it was them. The three of them seemed to be a group, and from time to time A lot of dirty, but it is also very expensive. It seems that it is obviously not ordinary people. Shang Yi said again: "You are the people there, how do you be caught by the pirate? See what secret things I have?"
These three people also kneeling on the ground, and first gave Shang Yi a head. One of them was about 50 years old. However, since childhood, I have been doing business in Manila. This time, I have a major event to report to the government. I do n’t want to be caught by the pirate.
Shang Yidao: "Oh! Now that Zhejiang patrol government has not yet arrived, everything is represented by me, what you have, just tell me."
Several people glanced at each other, and then stunned the foreigners on the side. The old man came forward a few steps, and whispered: "We heard the news in Manila. Preparation of the court early. "
Shang Yi couldn't help but be surprised, and said, "Who are you? This news came from there."
Zhang Gengqiu said: "Adults, this is true. Three months ago, Manila came with a fleet of the dribblers. There were more than 50 warships, more than 10,000 soldiers. After the kingdom of Sakamoto came, after he arrived at Manila, he began recruiting local indigenous soldiers, collecting warships, and preparing various materials. Later, the villain asked from one of the young officers that they this time from the Gan Dan La La. When you come to Manila not far away, you are preparing to attack me along the coast of Daming. Zhejiang reported that I didn't want to meet a pirate halfway. I thought the letter was hopeless, but I had eyes and was rescued by adults. This was told to the adult.
Shang Yi nodded and suddenly said: "You are both a Chinese businessman of Manila, do you know Li Gefei?"
Zhang Gengqiu froze for a moment, and said: "Knowing, when the villain was in Manila, he had a few noodles with Li Ge Fei."
Shang Yi said: "Okay, Li Gefei is also old -fashioned with me. What you say is important. I cannot trust with your side, but you can’t neglect the idea. You need to check it in detail. Then go back to Hangzhou with me and find Li Gefei to do your identity. "
Later, Shang Yi ordered the three of Zhang Gengqiu to take care of them, but they were not allowed to be embarrassed. Is it true that Zhang Gengqiu's words were true? Does Spain really sent an expeditionary army to invade China?
Shang Yi knew that in the middle of the 16th century, there was indeed a plan to conquer China with force in Spain. At that time, it was the heyday of the Habsburg dynasty in Spain.
, Suppressing the Independence of the Netherlands, competing with the British to compete for the Atlantic Ocean, conquered the west to the west, plundered a lot of wealth, captured the Philippines east, and pointed directly at Manila.
This series of victory and bloody conquest also made the Spaniards extremely inflated, and also aimed at China. In fact, the Spaniards had also formulated a detailed plan to conquer China.
After occupying Manila, you only need to use Manila as the base to use 12,000 to 15,000 soldiers, which is enough to conquer China.
It was only later shelved because of the annihilation of the invincible fleet in the Graff forest.
After Spanish captured Manila, some people kept refusing this plan, and the tone of his tone was getting bigger and bigger. In fact, a colonel and volunteered to be brave, claiming that he only used to give himself 3,000 troops and 50 warships, which was enough to conquer China.
However, at that time, Spain was an enemy in Europe at that time, and he was too busy. Finally, he still did not implement this plan. Is it now that someone has mentioned this branch and started to implement?
Spanish invasion of China, but now history can not be completely expected. Maybe his wings flutter to Spain.
However, the current Habsburg dynasty in Spain has been the West Mountain. In Europe, Portugal has recovered independence earlier. The 30 -year war also entered the last stage.
Forces, but officially reached the front desk, officially participated in the war, challenging Spain's dominant position, and overseas, Britain, France, and the Netherlands have also begun to establish colonies in the United States.
Threats Manila. In this case, can Spain still organize an expedition to China?
But it is also difficult to say that at this time, the king of the Hgsburg Dynasty in Spain was a recognized short -sighted, rough and rigid and self -use, and it was difficult to guarantee that he would not make such a stupid decision.
And from another aspect, if Zhang Gengqiu lie, is there any benefit to the forces behind him or him? Standarding China and Spain to start war? In fact, everyone who knows a little about Southeast Asia and Chinese history at this time knows that the Daming dynasty
It will never send troops to attack Manila. Not to mention that when the Manila Chinese massacre occurred in 1603, the Daming dynasty did not send troops to attack Manila. Now it is impossible to send troops based on the news provided by a businessman. Besides
There is still a power to launch such an expedition? Therefore, Zhang Gengqiu obviously has no motivation to lie, so you can only take a step to see.
