Whether it is the Dutch, Spain, or Portuguese, they are all outsiders, Western barbarians, and after they come to Southeast Asia, they all come to rule and loot the locals. This is an ironic fact, as long as they are not blind, they can see clearly.
For the indigenous leaders, of course, they did not like the Western barbarians. However, if it was ruled by the Western barbarians, they would have the leader to be the one who could be the rule of the Western barbarians. However, when the Ming Dynasty came, it would be the one who would be the one who would be the one who would be the one who would be the one who would be the one who would be the one who would be the one who would be the one who would be the one who would be the one who would be the one who would be the one who would be the one who would be the one who would be the one who would be the one who would be the one who would be the one who would be the one who would be the one who would be the one who would be the one who would be the one who would be the one who would be the one who would be the one who would be the one who would be the one who would be the one who would be the one who would be the one who would be the one who would be the one who would be the one who would be the one who would be the one who would be the one who would be the one who would be the one who would be the one who would be the one who would be the one who would be the one who would be the one who would be the one who would be the one who would be the one who would be the one who would be the one who would be the one who would be the one who would be the one who would be the one who would be the one who would be the one who would be the one who would be the one who would be the one who would be the one who would be the one who would be the one who would be the one who would be the one who would be the one who would be the one who would be the one who would be the one who would be the one who would be the one who would be the one who would be the one who would be the one who would be the one who would be the one who would be the one who would be the one who would be the one who would be the one who would be the one who would be the one who would be the one who would be the one who would be the one who would be the one who would be the one who would be the one who would be the one who would be the
Some indigenous leaders did not believe Liu Xiang's lobbying at first, but when they saw that in Luzon, the local indigenous people were either killed by the Ming army or taken to mine and build roads. The only life was OK, and only a few had been good to the Ming people before.
However, in the past, who knew that the Ming Dynasty would make decisions for these Ming people overseas? Therefore, who would have a good impression of these Ming people with such strong ability to make money? No matter how many, they had more or less bullied the Ming people. In this way, these indigenous leaders were afraid of being ruled by the Ming army.
Liu Xiang knew these situations very well. He also knew that it was a forced choice for the indigenous people to cooperate with the Dutch. For them, this was also a group of wolf who could eat people. If he ran to Batavia to swear, who would know if these Westerners would suddenly take action?
Among the indigenous leaders, the Western Barbarians basically have little credibility. Because when they came to Nanyang, they didn't keep their words, smiled in front of them, and did a lot of things with one knife. But now they will cooperate with these Western Barbarians under the premise of the common enemy of the Ming Kingdom. If there was no such enemy as the Ming Kingdom, they would be hostile to each other.
Liu Xiang thought about this and felt helpless, so he could only agree: "As long as the Governor can lead us to defeat the imperial naval army and drive the official army back, everything will be easy!"
As he said this, he had already made up his mind to let the indigenous leaders burst into blood, and he could not let the landlord take out the supplies alone.
After a date was agreed, Liu Xiang was also in a hurry to go back and said goodbye, wanting to go back and arrange this matter immediately. He was unsure of the situation if he didn't defeat the imperial naval commander for a day, especially when the imperial naval commander had more and more sailing warships.
Kun didn't stop him, but when Liu Xiang walked a few steps, he seemed to remember something, so he called Liu Xiang again and said, "Liu Dazhuan, I forgot to say something."
When Liu Xiang heard this, she turned around and looked at him with a little confusion and asked, "I don't know what else should I explain to you, Lord Governor?"
"I just thought about it." Kun replied as if he had just remembered it, "You are right. Time can't be delayed. If you delay for a long time, the strength of Ming Dynasty will grow one point. In this way, when the oath is made, I will go there in person. The leaders of other places hope to go there in person, so that they can make decisions on the spot, so that those who have gone will not be able to make decisions, go back and forth, waste time, and give Ming Dynasty the opportunity to gather strength! Look, how about it?"
When Liu Xiang heard this, he nodded quickly and said, "Governor General is wise, this is the best! I will try my best to convince them!"
Not long after, on the dock, watching Liu Xiang's ship leave in a hurry, Anthony couldn't help it and asked Kun: "Governor General, why should we accommodate these Orientals? Without our fleet, they would not be able to compete with the Ming Navy. We said that in Batavia, do they still have a choice?"
In his opinion, the address of this alliance should be decided by them, because their fists are the largest!
When Kun heard this, he withdrew his gaze and looked at Anthony with a smile, "If it were in Batavia, would those indigenous monkey kings come? For us, there are powerful fleets everywhere. As long as those kings go to Temasek, our fleet will be able to capture them all in one place, hold their kings in their hands, and defeat the Ming Kingdom, and this Nanyang will be easily controlled in its hands!"
When Anthony heard this, he suddenly realized and nodded quickly, "It's still the wisest Governor! Doing this is the most convenient and quickest way for our Dutch East India Company to master the entire Southeast Asian region!"
Kun was also proud, turned around and walked towards the carriage parked not far away, and said at the same time: "This Liu Xiang is a good candidate for running errands. They, the Orientals, know the Orientals, and then they swear by Temasek. I believe he will not disappoint me!"
As the two of them got into the car as they said. When they drove out of the dock, they saw the busy Ming people. Anthony said a little angrily: "The construction speed of these Ming people is obviously slower than before. Liu Xiang's subordinates don't know what they are doing. Do you really think we are easy to deceive?"
Kun didn't care when he heard this. He closed his eyes and seemed to be resting, but he answered at the same time: "It doesn't matter. I used to think that after they finished building, they would kill them. But our strategy changed, let them do it! Let them do it!"
"Ah?" Anthony asked in confusion, "How can this be done?"
Kun didn't open his eyes and replied lightly: "When we defeat the Ming Kingdom, at least in Luzon, we can capture more Ming people. At that time, I have an idea, or we should rebuild a more suitable Batavia!"
Batavia is indeed a bit off-limits for the entire Southeast Asian Ocean. In the past, there was no way to come late. The Portuguese and the Spanish who came first took advantage of the good places, but now, since you can control the entire Southeast Asian Ocean, Batavia is remote, or it is time to change the place.
Thinking of this, Anthony nodded and agreed: "The Governor is right, it's time to change places. However, these Ming people cannot let them go and let them go to the new place to continue to practice until they die!"
"Well, that's for sure!" Kun said lightly, and continued to close his eyes and rest, but in his mind, he was already planning where the most suitable place to build a new Batavia!
Besides, Liu Xiang rushed back to Temasek from Batavia, and then immediately summoned his subordinates to tell the situation, and then urged his subordinates to go to various places to invite the indigenous leaders.
When the third leader Liang Xiaozhen heard this, he immediately reported the news through the chat group.
When Sun Chuanting, the temporary acting governor of Zhejiang, Fujian and Guangdong provinces, heard it, he immediately suggested to Emperor Chongzhen: "Your Majesty, I think, take this opportunity to attack Temasek and wipe out the bandits in the South China Sea in one fell swoop!"
As long as these people who were against the Ming Dynasty could be wiped out, the entire Nanyang would be from the Ming Dynasty, and those Ming people who were plundered could be rescued, so his temporary hat could be removed.
Emperor Chongzhen was a little helpless when he heard this. He didn't want to fight so early. As long as the days were delayed, the Ming Dynasty's strength in Southeast Asia would grow a little more. However, sometimes, everything could not be done as expected. Therefore, after pondering for a moment, he issued an order: "Okay, let the navy from all over the country gather in Luzon!"
The number of naval troops in Luzon is only a part of the surface. With the strength of the Ming Dynasty and the current attitude of Emperor Chongzhen towards the ocean, what he has been preparing for since the summoning of Sun Chuanting last year, how could it be that little naval troops in Luzon have been there?
Emperor Chongzhen's decree immediately took action.
The naval warships in Fujian, one, two, one or two, began to gather at Taiping Port in Fuzhou. In just a few days, there were seventy or eighty navy warships of various colors in Taiping Port.
At the same time, Governor Sun Chuanting left Fuzhou and rode his horse to visit Taiping Port in person.
The Navy Junior Academy here, the soldiers who were originally drawn from warships from all over the country for training had already received a notice, and when Sun Chuanting arrived, they had already gathered on the school ground.
Sun Chuanting didn't talk nonsense. He got off his horse, walked with a cold face, and after stepping onto the stage, he shouted coldly: "The decisive battle in the South China Sea is about to begin. After you have learned so much, you should go to the battlefield to see the true story. This official speech is here first, and you will reward merits and punish me for anything. You will not tell any kindness. All the wealth and honor are in your hands. Return to the team today and set off tomorrow! Do you understand?"
All the governor's style, especially the Fujian people, have a deep understanding of the style of the governor, so all the soldiers shouted in unison: "I understand!"
Then, if there is no more extra, everyone will be disbanded, packed up and returned to the team.
Their return team was actually just to Taiping Port. Because their fleet had already gathered at Taiping Port.
This series of actions also caused local people to discuss.
"What's wrong? Are there pirates again?"
"It's impossible. In this situation, where pirates don't have eyes and dare to come to the Ming Dynasty to grab things?"
“…”
Since the previous year, the Ming Navy's power has become stronger and stronger, far exceeding that of any previous time. Even when the Japanese pirates were prevalent and the court was working hard to deal with the Japanese pirates, there was no such large-scale navy. Under this background, there was no pirate living space at all, especially when the Cold-faced Hell was in charge of the navy.
So, the answer was not difficult to guess, and soon some people thought of it.
"I understand. Something must have happened in Nanyang. This is a trip to Nanyang!"
"Yes, there is only the Nanyang side next to our Ming Dynasty that needs to be dispatched to navigate!"
"Those Western barbarians who were killed in heaven and those damn Nanyang monkeys should teach them a lesson. Let's see if they dare to harm our wise people!"
"The court had pacified Nanyang early, and the people of our tribe would be at ease when they went to the vassal state to do business!"
“…”
The people along the coast agreed that the imperial navy sent troops to the South China Sea.
Amid the discussions of these people, the navy from Taiping Port set off. However, they did not go south along the coast, but went to the Grand Secretary. After supplying the supplies, they joined the navy garrisoned by the Grand Secretary and walked through the Bashi Channel together to Luzon.
Not only that, in Hoi An, there were also naval warships in Hoi An who received the order, first arrived at the "Sisa Islands" in later generations, gathered naval warships from Hainan here, and then passed through the "Zhongsha Islands" and "Huangyan Island" to gather towards Luzon Manila.
When the Ming navy from all over the country began to set off, all the troops from the Anti-Ming Alliance had just set off for Temasek.
Batavia, Su Minggang was old and weak, dozing off at home. Suddenly, he saw Su Minglun rushing in and saying, "The clan uncle, something big happened..."
His words were so scared that Su Minggang was so shocked that he suddenly lost all sleepiness. He immediately stood up and asked, "Is it the Dutch who is going to do it?"
Little by little, he heard the noise coming from afar.
"No!" Sun Minglun's forehead was full of sweat, and he shook his head quickly, "The Dutch warships parked at the port were dispatched at once, and even the governor and the admiral left together. What we saw was that we went out to sea together!"
"Why is this happening?" Su Minggang was a little anxious when he heard this.
How powerful is the Dutch warship? He is definitely clear. Before, when the Dutch warships were increasing, he was already anxious. Every time he came to the warship, he would report in a chat group. However, no matter whether it was the Governor or the Emperor, he showed no sign of panic.
Sometimes, Su Minggang was a little suspicious that they didn't know the power of the Dutch warships. However, he was not brave enough to question them directly. Now, he went out seventy-five Dutch warships at once. They were definitely not doing good things when they went out. And now, the Ming Dynasty was their biggest enemy, and only the Ming Dynasty was worthy of their dispatch of so many warships.
Thinking of this, he became anxious and quickly said to Su Minglun: "I will report to the court immediately."
As he was talking, he had already made a decision in his heart. Regardless of whether the emperor would be angry, he must remind him this time.
When he entered the chat group, he immediately reported the situation, and then gritted his teeth and added: "Your Majesty, Governor, the Dutch warships are very powerful. Caomin thought that one of their warships could... all fight against our five Ming warships. Really, Caomin is the truth and dare not deceive them. Please ask Your Majesty to be careful. The Dutch... The Dutch dispatched 75 warships, and there were almost 20,000 red-haired soldiers!"
His status determines the limited information he has obtained. Emperor Chongzhen knew better than him that the Dutch dispatched so many warships this time, and the first stop was to go to Temasek first. Therefore, Emperor Chongzhen happened to be online and replied to him: "Haha, don't worry, just Dutch warships are all outdated. Don't worry, I know it!"
Hearing this, Su Minggang felt a sudden slap in his heart. The emperor did not believe in his words, or underestimated the enemy. He would suffer a great loss!
