Chapter 403 What's on the other side of the sea?(1/2)

The main reason for the decline of Pu's family was a war that was rarely talked about.

This war completely led to the Pu family from Quanzhou going north again to the Hezhoushan Islands to continue to maintain their ancestral property.

"Yisibaxi wars." Li Xian mentioned a war in Quanzhou in Fujian at the end of the Yuan Dynasty and the early Ming Dynasty.

Yisibaxi's war and Yisibaxi's correct translation should be the Persian militia rebellion.

The southern Song Dynasty's maritime trade was extremely developed, and brought merchants from Tianfang, who gathered at Quanzhou Port, the largest port in the world at that time.

The ancestors of the Pu family came to the Southern Song Dynasty at that time.

Quanzhou was the world's number one port in the late Southern Song Dynasty until the Persian militia war.

At its peak, Quanzhou Port was surrounded by more than 30 miles and lived in more than 200,000 people, including nearly 70% of foreign expatriates.

They came from Tianfang, Persia, Europa Christians, Jews, etc. These people all had a unified name in the Yuan Dynasty, named Semuren.

The Yuan Dynasty had a very broad rule. They positioned the Mongols as first-class people, designated Semu people as second-class people, designated the Han people from the north as third-class people, and designated the Han people from the south as fourth-class people.

The Mongolians used Seme people to collect taxes, and most of the people who included taxes were Seme people.

At that time, Quanzhou Port used more than one hundred languages.

The Persian militia was the most populous and powerful group in Quanzhou at that time. Their generals Saifdin and Amilidin gradually seized control of the Quanzhou City.

In order to regain the rule of Quanzhou, the largest port, the Yuan Dynasty began a nine-year battle with the Semu people.

In the past nine years, the world's number one port was beaten to pieces, and the Pu family had to leave Quanzhou Port and head to the Zhoushan Islands.

Li Xian put down the first piece of information in his hand, took out the second piece, and said with emotion: "The gentry and wealthy merchants in Jiangnan all said that I was harsh in the Ming Dynasty, and I miss their Dayuan."

"Because of the simplicity and luxury of the people, the families of literati who gathered together continued to rise in the hands of Yuan Zhikuanzong."

"The Yang family of Zepu originated in the Southern Song Dynasty. They were the governor of Lizhou, the governor of the Palace Front Office, and Yang Fa, deputy commander of the Privy Council, surrendered to the Yuan Dynasty."

"Three generations of the Yang family, who were both officials and businessmen, were engaged in trade with Japan and Goryeo."

Li Xian put down the bamboo tube in his hand, picked up another bamboo tube, and said with a smile: "It is located in Fushan Port in Changshu, and it is one of the main transportation ports for the grain and sea grain of Huyuan, Changshu Cao, Xu, and Liu,

Gathering on the sea, Jiaming and Hainan, and his residence is invincible."

"Qingyuan Wu, Han, Ni, and Dai Si family are the four masters of Qingyuan Maritime Warehouse. They are famous maritime merchants. They lost their ranks at the end of the Yuan Dynasty. The four masters are important pillars of Fang Guozhen. Fang Guozhen was defeated and the four masters ran to the scene.

Ryukyu.”

There are still many bamboo tubes in Li Xian's hand, but he doesn't take them out one by one.

He held the bamboo tubes and said with a smile: "In fact, after Hu Yuan captured Lin'an City, captured the royal family of the Southern Song Dynasty, occupied Jiangnan, his broad rule, and superimposed on the highly developed Jiangnan rural and commercial society, there will inevitably be a hierarchy.

, that is the wealthy people who are integrated with official and business."

Li Xian lit the table and said, "The remnants of the previous dynasty!"

Most of the people in it are these people. If you have to describe them, you can summarize them in four words, which is the previous dynasty's desire.

Li Xian has become a powerful gravedigger. Since he wants to be a gravedigger, he naturally has to ask the origins of these people. How did these lawless guys come into being gradually answered.

He continued: "After the Ming Dynasty moved the capital to Beiya in the 19th year of Yongle, they finally came back."

"The life they want is nothing more than: Ningdong merchants' brocade robes, newly harvested jade hair from the sea. They bought Wu boats to carry Wu girls, and the capital was drunk every day."

"But the Ming Dynasty can't give it."

After Li Xian sorted out the main enemies of the Battle of Zhoushan, the government office of Songjiang Prefecture was quiet.

Xu Chengzong sat upright, nodded and said, "I have come into contact with the families that Governor Li mentioned, and even know a few of them. I have had dinner together in Yanyunlou."

"A luxurious home."

Of course, Xu Chengzong had seen them. These were all abandoned people from the Ming Dynasty. They did not abide by the laws of the Ming Dynasty. They carried out maritime trade outside the country of the Ming Dynasty.

These people are luxurious houses, and even on the land of the Ming Dynasty, there are many gardens. Once there is a turmoil, they will immediately leave the sea and come back after they escape the limelight.

Li Xian continued: "They have more than 40 warships, more than 40, more than 40, more than 100, seven lucky ships, hundreds of warships, and hundreds of warships.

Thousands of ships, nearly four thousand sea ships.”

"There are more than 53,000 pirates on the entire Zhoushan Islands, and they are both businessmen and thieves. There are shipwrecks, merchants, people, workshop owners, craftsmen, etc., a total of more than 150,000."

Xu Chengzong asked in confusion: "How did Governor Li know so much?"

However, after inspecting, he found that there were three missing people sitting here, namely Yue Qian, Yuan Bin and Ji Duo.

His Majesty these three men stayed in the Nanya.

Yuan Bin looked at Li Xian. Ji Duo returned to the Nanya after investigating the murder of Baoding Bo from Xiangyang.

Ji Duo is the commander of the border army, Yuan Bin is the commander of the Jinyiwei, Yue Qian is the commander of the Beijing camp, and Yue Qian is the leader of the three.

Yue Qian is Yu Qian's direct descendant. Whether it is to depose the throne of King Jili, or to serve the throne of Ola to take King Jili back to the capital, or to remove the title of Emperor and kill King Jili, Yue Qian is seen in major events such as these.

.

But Yue Qian should be considered His Majesty's direct line, because Yu Qian does not form a clique.

Where are these three people now?

Zhoushan Shuangyu Port and Cen Port.

Xu Chengzong knew the source of Li Xian’s intelligence, but kept silent. Someone in Nanya had seen three people. If something happened, wouldn’t he blame him for his words?

Li Binyan said, "We don't have a lucky boat."

"We only have more than fifty battleships, more than a hundred patrolships, more than one thousand crafts, more than one thousand three hundred sea ships, five thousand sea ships, 30,000 Mizhou Municipal Shipbuilding and Jingjun Army, Yuegang Xuanwei Department

There are 30,000 Beijing troops, the Nanya Jing troops, and the three Fengyang guards have more than 70,000."

"Apart from the Fu Ship, our strength is far superior to our opponents."

"You must know that during the Yongle period, the Ming Dynasty did not count ships such as ships such as ships, dou Chong, and sea ships. They were really too small."

How powerful was the Ming Navy at its peak?

In the 18th year of Yongle, the Ming Navy had a total of 3,800 warships, besides small boats such as the ships, Dou Chong, etc., including more than 1,350 patrol boats, more than 1,370 warships, and 250 ocean-going treasure ships.

There are also countless guard and law enforcement ships and command ships that protect the ocean and patrol the river.

Zheng He made a bold statement in "The Inscription of Zheng He": When he came to the foreign kings, those who were disrespectful to the foreign kings would be captured alive; those who were invaded by the barbarians would be wiped out.

And Zheng He really did it.

Ceylon Mountain King Yalie Kunail was disrespectful and plotted to murder Zhou Shi. Zheng He and his men captured the capital, captured the king and his family alive, and took them to the capital.

The Xuanwei Office of the Old Port was illegal, and Zheng He deeply loved the pirate Chen Zuyi and the other three, and destroyed more than 5,000 pirates in one battle, completely opening up the route.

Zheng He's navy can only call it a warship of more than 250 ocean-going treasure ships.

The famous Zheng He fleet's invincible fleet is actually just a maritime mobile fleet of the powerful Ming Empire Navy.

In the 19th year of Yongle, the Ming Navy counted the registered warships, which were about ten Spanish invincible fleets.

Why is it said that the world is invincible?

Because the Ming Dynasty is really invincible in the world.

But now, in order to attack the pirate group of Zhoushan, Li Binyan, Tao Jin, Ma Yun, Chen Yu and others have gathered all the maritime forces, but there are only 150 ships that can be called warships.

This is the result after 24 years of promoting Wen and Wu.

Li Xian said with great confidence: "The Ming maritime merchants who lost the Invincible Fleet have a very difficult business, because the obedient French country became abominable, and the pirates who disappeared again rose, the sea routes were blocked and the trade was blocked."

Xu Chengzong himself had more than 2,000 sea boats, so Xu Chengzong naturally knew whether the business was good or not.

Li Binyan knocked on the table and said with a smile: "Your Majesty works hard to govern and intends to revitalize the Ming Navy. I believe that under the guidance of Your Majesty, our Ming Revival is not a mirror and a moon!"

"I believe that the sun, moon, mountains and rivers will always be there, and the mountains and rivers of the Ming Dynasty will always be strengthened!"

Wang Yin looked at the end of the discussion and said loudly: "The ministers received the order."

Everyone stood up and stood straight, Li Binyan walked off the platform and stood in the audience.

Wang Yin held an imperial edict and said loudly: "The Emperor Fengtian Chengyun, and the imperial edict said: "

"I have inherited Hongxu, and I am the general ruler of the people, and I am all innocent. If I am not a vicious person, I will be able to cover up the waste."

"The relatives of the late Yuan Dynasty were tyrants, and they dared to attack the enemy, and secretly occupied the Shang throne, and sent them to the islands. So they developed the ambition to recommend food, and they looked at the country that I attached to, between Yiqichang's mansion, whales and salamanders rose everywhere, and they were happy.

The realm of Lang Xuantu.”

"The people are separated, the military and civilians are in trouble, and they are in a hurry to go, so I ask for troops to go."

"I ordered Tao Jin, the commander of the four power regiment camp, to hold the seal of General of the General of the Conquest of the Yi, Chen Yu, the commander of the Conquest of the Yi, Ma Yun, the commander of the Conquest of the Yi, and the commander of the Conquest of the Yi, Fan of the Yuegang City, to hold the seal of General of the Conquest of the Yi, and the commander-in-chief Fan Xiong, and Dong Xing were the left and right generals."

"Governor Li Xian, the governor of Jiangnan, governor of the military affairs of the Yi, Lin Cong, the military officer of Wang Yi, the military officer of Wang Yin, the military supervisor of Wang Jin, the censor Zhang Hai, and the Ding Xuan Jigong."

"Lead the Navy of Mizhou, Ningbo, Yuegang Shipin, Jingying and Fengyang Guards, and Nanjing troops to fight against the Japanese turmoil in Zhoushan."

"Yiwu is vigorous and powerful, even if the jumper is strong, he will be killed!"

"I am using the publicity to inform the world, and I have heard that the envoys are aware of this."

The seal, ribbon, fire card was constantly issued to the military generals present in the hands of the Zhongguan.

"The sun, moon, mountains and rivers will always be there, and the mountains and rivers of the Ming Dynasty will always be strengthened!" After receiving the order, the ministers shouted loudly.
