For the mai Dahai and other Hainan Island Danmin sailors, their fate is tied to Yin Feng. Basically, the gang members of Hainan Island Yazhou and Wanzhou have been recruited by Yin Feng to Taiwan; here they can do it
In business, sailors, soldiers, you can also go to farm in the military farming estate; and the rules that the Ming Dynasty stipulated that the people of the sacred people were not allowed to read and recognize words were not applicable here.
In Taiwan, the sailors had a completely different identity from the original place. Yin Feng specially set up a seafarer school in Wugang, asking the teacher hired in Quanzhou to ask them to recognize words, and the big-nosed foreign teachers taught them to learn astronomy and
There are even classes that teach American dialect, but except for Li Lihua's Spanish, basically no one goes to listen.
So during this warship sailor rebellion, all the Hanmin sailors stood firmly on the side of the China Company. When the news of the rebellion being extinguished reached Mai Dahai's fleet, they had already arrived at the sea outside Jilong Harbor.
On the shore, the Japanese established a newly built fortified village, surrounded by a circle of wooden walls, and about 100 Samurai warriors were stationed. The Japanese fleet had returned, so there were only a few single-masts in Jilong Port.
Sailing ship. The Flying Dragon quickly solved these small sailboats and then placed the huge ship in front of the Japanese clan.
The poor Japanese only planned to deal with the attacks of the natives. Unexpectedly, the Chinese company would have such warships, so they could only rely on 20 clamps and dozens of bows and arrows to guard the village.
The Chinese company first occupied Sheliao Island, which was called Peace Island in another time and space, and established a city here. Then, 300 sailors and musket teams landed on the beach east of the Japanese village and contacted Wu Sheng, an indigenous person in the Tamsui River Basin.
Bay Society, Quimazon Society, Senar Society, Bali Di Society, Beitou Society (Quipatao), Lichoco Society, etc.; and the northeast corner of the chicken coop
Indigenous villages, Sandian Society (St. Jago), Quimaury, etc. A few days later, more than 2,000 soldiers gathered in various indigenous villages, which were burned, killed and looted by Japanese people, and came to join the Chinese company fleet.
The musket teams gathered. After the alliance meeting, the coalition forces launched an attack on the Japanese villages.
The Japanese were surrounded from all directions, and the Feilong used his naval guns to ravage the Japanese in the village. The artillery fire destroyed the entire wooden wall, and countless Japanese were killed by shells.
One hour later, the Japanese village fell, and almost all of the more than 100 Satsuma samurai warriors were killed, and only one small leader was captured alive by the sailors and musket team and was ready to be taken to Taiwan Port.
According to Yin Feng's plan, Mai Dahai established two fortresses on Sheliao Island, Nei Sheliao Island, Jilong Port, each stationed 100 musketeers, carrying more than 10 artillery big and small guns. Mai Dahai ordered local residents to move bamboo to the castle,
Those who refuse to enforce will be severely punished. Soon after, villages and communities in the northern part of Taiwan came to form alliances one after another: they sent lemon saplings, lychee saplings and sour fruit saplings to temporary fortresses, indicating that they would give their land;
The old miners and Feng Shui masters who came with the ship began to prepare to dig the coal mines and fresh water from chicken cages, use the indigenous people to develop coal and sulfur, and then transport these precious resources to Taiwan.
After doing all this, the first infantry sentry of Maid's guard team also opened the passage from south to north in the western plains, and came to the outside of Jilong, and met with Mai Dahai and Ye Hua.
This was the peak period for the reorganization of the navy, but most of the subordinates of Mai Dahai were sergeant sailors, so the reorganization did not affect the morale of the northbound fleet.
....
Yin Feng paced back and forth on the port pier, looking at the sea from time to time, looking very anxious.
Most of the Chinese company leadership gathered behind him and talked a lot. Lin Xiao also got a opera drum band and played and blew from time to time.
Because the nearby place has been alerted by the members of the live ammunition guard team, many dock workers can only watch from a distance curiously, and are also talking: "Who is coming? Even the ship owner is waiting so respectfully?"
"I heard that it was Taishan, the father-in-law of the ship owner, who had been a high-ranking official in the court."
"I heard that he is the father-in-law of the ship owner and the shareholder of the company."
"No wonder, these big guys are waiting here."
Finally, an ordinary two-masted merchant ship appeared at the entrance of the bay, and several naval warships that had been waiting there to greet him. Here, the drum band was making a buzz with drums and drums.
The retired judge Zeng Qi, the retired general Chen Di, and Yin Feng's wife Zeng Jing came to Taiwan Port together.
Chen Di and Zeng Jing were unexpected visitors to Yin Feng.
Yin Feng bowed to Zeng Qi with a half-child ceremony and met Chen Di. Looking at Zeng Jing, who was timid in the sea breeze, he felt a little embarrassed. Zeng Qi walked over and said with a smile: "Okay,
Send Jing'er back to your home first, and say something when there is no one." Yin Feng smiled bitterly, so he had to ask Chen Zhongji and others to send Zeng Jing home first.
Chen Di looked around curiously and saw countless merchant ships in the port, mountains of goods piled up and down the dock, and the soldiers of the guards who stood still on the pier, and couldn't help but sigh: "Brother Yin, you have made it in just one year.
If there is a big picture, I really can't imagine it!"
"The veteran general is too good, and this is the result of the joint efforts of all colleagues in the company." Yin Feng quickly humbled himself, and then introduced his colleagues in the company who had been waiting there to his father-in-law and Chen Di.
Zeng Jingshan, Han Ping and his son, Li Lihua, Lu Shitou, Li Yue, An Heping and others were all there. When Zeng Jingshan saw Zeng Qi, he acted with his son and nephew, and the rest bowed to the ground one by one.
Yin Feng was grateful and awe for this father-in-law who helped him start his own family and gave him a family. He first took Zeng Qi and Chen Di to visit the dock, warehouse, factory area, weapon factory, military and civilians.
, residential areas and other places, of course, some places such as the Weapons Research and Development Bureau will not go to.
In the evening, in the exclusive private room of Yin Feng on the third floor of the "Leshan Building" next to the company's headquarters, the main management of the China Company welcomed Zeng Qi and Chen Di together. In any case, these two were the highest received by China Company.
It's a bureaucrat, although he has retired.
After the banquet, Yin Feng sent someone to send Chen Di to the company headquarters for a rest, while Zeng Qi was still unsatisfied and kept following Yin Feng home. The two of them sent away irrelevant people before, and Zeng Qi, who had been unable to hold it in, asked: "
Feng'er, what do you mean by creating a big situation?"
Yin Feng was a little surprised and immediately replied: "Of course, it is to fight back to Manila and avenge Zeng Yue's second brother!" After a pause, he said: "This is also the wish of all the original shareholders of the company. Go back to Manila!"
"Original shareholder?" Monk Zeng Qi and Zhang Er were confused.
Yin Feng quickly said: "It is the first 950 investors of our China Company. In fact, some people only earn the books by borrowing and credit, and the actual investment is only more than 400 people."
"Do you think you can deal with the stakeholders with your strength?"
"It's not my own power, it's the power of the entire company. With our power, it's not enough to deal with the stakeholders, but it's enough to deal with the stakeholders on Luzon." Yin Feng smiled faintly: "We don't have to deal with the stakeholders."
All the relevant people just need to fight back to Manila."
"Can't the relevant lagoons attack with the power of the country?" Zeng Qi shook his head when he heard this.
"Do you know where the relationship between La Kingdom is?" Yin Feng asked back.
Zeng Qi was stunned, but he was unwilling to lose face in front of his half. He said with a tough bullet: "The left and right are just the Atlantic Kingdom; I heard that Matteo Ricci, a great Western scholar, should have come from there.
Bar?"
Yin Feng was embarrassed to embarrass himself again and said: "Matte Ricci comes from the Atlantic Europe, not a group of people involved in the La Li people. The son-in-law's book records..."
Zeng Qi was embarrassed when he arrived. He regarded Yin Feng's book as a fantasy at all, and he didn't turn a few pages at all. He quickly changed the topic and said, "You returned from overseas, so this thing is clear about the things and foreign affairs.
Yes, I won’t say much. So, come and take a look at these newspapers…”
Zeng Qi took out several paper newspapers with different textures and printing from his arms, obviously collected at different times and places. Yin Feng picked up one and was immediately attracted by a memorial from Fujian Governor Xu Xueju.
He read for a while and found that these newspapers were reproduced by memorials about Fujian.
Although Yin Feng led his men to assassinate the Spanish Manila envoy, history seemed to be delayed not long before the original trajectory. Xu Xueju said in a memorial to the court: Although there were two complaints from thousands of people to seek justice for the Chinese who died in Manila,
For the court, starting a war for the merchants and the barbarians thousands of miles away was far less beneficial than trading taxes with foreign barbarians. Although this memorial has not yet openly defended the Spanish, it has been playing the drums for opening up the trade against Manila.
Sure enough, in a recent memorial after the New Year, Xu Xueju recorded that within the year last year, the Red-Farewell Yi was invaded, the Manila trade was cut off, and the strokes and floods continued frequently in the year, and the taxes in the whole province could not be collected, and the taxes paid to the court were also greatly insufficient.
Especially the foreign trade taxes of Haicheng Port, known as the "Southern Cushion of the Emperor", were less than half of the previous year in the 32nd year of Wanli.
This question is submitted directly to the court, which will definitely touch the sensitive nerves of Emperor Wanli, who is fond of money and life. Although there are also reports in the palace that Emperor Wanli is angry about his people being killed overseas, at most it is Wanli for himself.
It is considered to be more important than the losses of taxes and silver, which is more important than the barbarians or business people.
Xu Xueju's memorial also has many deep reasons. According to Yin Feng's Military Information Department, many of the taxes and silver obtained from Haicheng's foreign trade every year fell into the hands of officials at all levels of the Fujian Governor's Office. Many senior officials occupied the goods for foreign trade.
Shares are also common. None of the aristocratic families along the coast want to lose the Luzon market. The demands of these people will also affect the decisions of the governor.
In short, no one really takes the 30,000 Chinese who died in Manila to heart.
Yin Feng read all the words carefully, and in order to understand the dynamics of the court for a long time, he rubbed his eyes and raised his head to Zeng Qi, who was a little sleepy, said: "My father-in-law, I understand.
You mean it.”
Zeng Qi straightened his waist and rubbed his eyes and said, "I have no other intentions. Since ancient times, the people have not fought with officials, and the merchants have not fought with officials. Once the court begins to issue foreign water diversion to Manila, what should you do?"
