The Great Ming Dynasty Dominate Overseas

This time I went to Batavia without taking the eastern route and proceeded along the Philippines, but took the western route, that is, along Guangdong-Hainan, and then to Annan (Vietnam), from Annan to the sharp corner of the South China Sea. Batavia.

The advantage of this route is that it is convenient to supply supplies along the way. These areas are relatively crowded. Unlike the Philippines, which is relatively desolate, or some islands in the Philippines can be occupied and operated as supply bases. Although it is good, the side of the bed will cause anxiety in Spain. .

They had to come one by one. Before the Netherlands was settled, the Southeast Government did not want to fight with Spain.

It's okay to offend one Orchid Fan country, and offend two Orchid Fan countries, it is possible that all Orchid Fan countries will come together to deal with the fledgling Southeast Province. It is inevitable.

Hong Maofan is full of contradictions with each other, and Yan Changwu has the opportunity to take advantage of it.

...

The fleet passes along the coasts of Fujian and Guangdong, and there are supply ships coming to supply fresh water, meat, vegetables, etc., and supply is not a problem.

Those supply ships hired ships from various seaports to transport materials, which naturally alarmed local governments.

The local officials were speechless when they heard that the Southeast Mansion's fleet was going out again to fight against the red hair.

According to these bureaucrats, the boss of the Southeast Mansion was indeed still young, and he was full.

Over the years, the Southeast Fleet has not invaded the mainland. The officials shrank their heads as tortoises and cooperated happily with the Southeast Government. Everyone made money together. Even Fujian Governor Zou Weilian didn't want to make trouble.

The country is difficult, the great land of China is constantly uprising, and there are northern prisoners outside. This southeast mansion will not cause trouble, let him go!

At the mouth of the Pearl River, Yan Changwu took ten warships to visit Guangzhou (Yan Changwu likes to send his officers and soldiers to visit various regions, so that everyone can increase their knowledge. Hey, the staff in the fleet are not going to play, but to find the defensive loopholes in the place. ), stopped at Huangpu and accepted the "review" of Governor Xiong Wencan.

Guangdong's chief envoy Xu Shaokan was born in the second-ranked scholar of Wanli Bingchen Division. In the same year, there was the famous Hong Chengchou. He was still under his rank. Xu Shaokan came up from Henan as a prosecutor. It was a guerrilla in Guangdong's coastal defense, but he didn't get in to Guangzhou to see the Guangdong coastal defense generals. He didn't even go ashore to visit the governor's office, which was very disapproving!

At that time, he was about to issue a placard to prohibit the officers and soldiers of the Fujian Navy from coming ashore, on the pretext of preventing them from wooing the people.

He is a civil servant who manages civil affairs and has this power.

Governor Xiong Wencan was inconvenient to fight with him, but he jumped out of a left chief envoy Lin Zhi, who was the same year as Xu Shaokan, but fought against the platform: "How can the navy officers and soldiers of this country not be allowed to go ashore?"

"They have been sailing at sea for a long time, and they were originally anxious. They wouldn't be allowed to go ashore. What if there was a disturbance? It would be counterproductive?

"Furthermore, ten boats have a business of 3,000 people and 3,000 people. Wouldn’t it be good if the Guangzhou market is prosperous? Mr. Xu, you are Fang Bo (a honorific name for the chief envoy). What about local people's business!" Lin Zhi said, hurting him.

Lin Zhi is also a civil official, and he can tell the truth, but the old Xiong smiled in the upright position: "Lin's words are reasonable!"

With one main attack and the other assisting, Ren Xu Shaohan had to be silent too!

Xiong Wencan doesn't need to say much about his relationship with Yan Changwu. Lin Zhi is from Putian, Fujian, so he turned his arm inward!

Lao Lin reads a lot and knows the evil of Fanzhen very well, but if he is from the same province, he will speak with a different face.

These Fujian provincial officials, or those who have served as high officials in Fujian, Yan Changwu's annual filial piety is indispensable, and of course he can speak for him.

However, when the officers and soldiers of the Southeast Army came ashore, what surprised Xu Shaokan was that they were outstanding in military appearance, disciplined, and crowded, polite and fair business!

Buying things for money, there is no move to win over the people, and defeat the rest of the army.

The news came, but it made his heart sink. If the Southeast Army came in chaos, he wouldn't be so worried!

He personally went to see the gunship of the Southeast Ship, and was even more surprised. The two main battleships (battleships) were full of blastholes, so terrible!

He also heard that there were ten such gunboats, and dozens of other smaller gunboats, which made Xu Shaokan take a breath.

Xu Shaokan privately greeted Xiong Wencan and said: "The Southeast Army is a powerful army in the world, and it is possible to sweep across the two areas. How can the Governor allow them to sit down!"

"Yan Shaoyang's ambition to run the army like this is not small. In case, if there is a case, dare to ask the Governor, who can control? How to explain to the court?" Xu Shaohan asked.

Xiong Wencan shook his head and said: "Brother has been worried, Xiaoyan will not turn back, he swore in front of Mazu Niangniang to be loyal to Daming forever!"

Xu Shaokan was hesitant to speak, and finally did not dare to say that he swears to use it. Saying this is tantamount to disrespect to Mazu Niangniang, and Mazu Niangniang's thousands of followers will not give up with him.

Seeing that he didn't believe him, Xiong Wencan was too lazy to say, calling his nephew, Xiong Ting, and telling him to speak out and sing "Jing Zhong Bao Guo" to Master Fang.

The lyrics were so heroic, Xu Shaohan couldn't help shouting: "Okay!"

"Master Xu knows who wrote the song?" Xiong Wencan asked ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ from the Southeast Mansion? "Xu Shaokan asked hesitantly.

"That's it!" Xiong Wencan nodded and said, "Xiaoyan wrote it personally, so it's like a heartfelt message."

"Being faithful and loyal to the country, this country, even if it is not Daming, is my country of Han people, Xiaoyan, dare not oppose China! I dare not oppose Han people! Don't worry, man!" Xiong Wencan packed his votes for him.

This time it was Xu Shaokan's turn to nod. Yan Changwu said that he would serve the country with loyalty. If he violated it, he would be slapped himself and cause renunciation by his subordinates. He would not be so stupid.

Xu Shaohan's heart was heavy, and he reluctantly left. The more he pondered, he understood a little bit, that kid, want to work Cao Cao!

When he was only weak, he had such great ambitions, time was all on his side, and he had wings. No, I still have to reflect it to the emperor.

After returning to the government, he wrote a memorial!

...

The fleet left the mouth of the Pearl River, arrived at Hailing Island, and then went straight to Hainan Island, replenishing supplies along the way, and the last stop was Qiongzhou, and then sailing was to go abroad.

Qiongzhou is located in the southern tip of Hainan. Since ancient times, it has been an exile area, a desolate land, and a small population. The arrival of the fleet suddenly made the ancient port city very lively!

The fleet stayed here for a day, allowing officers and soldiers to land in batches, while the supply ship swept away all live livestock, poultry, fresh fruits and vegetables around, and the supply ship was full of lively and small delivery boats. .

Yan Changwu didn't go ashore on a regular basis, reading books, shipbuilding drawings, and invention ideas in his official cabin, and he had time to play chess and cards with his cronies.

There is a lack of entertainment methods. For the sake of fame, he can only carry out good hobbies, mainly engaged in shipbuilding and invention. He is working on the fortifications and completing the drawing of the first-class battleship on the three-gun deck, and Gan Hui invited one person over to see him and talked about it. A miracle!

Mazu empress has appeared!
