Chapter 644: Barbarians, is it still a thing?(1/2)
In Bogu City, Wang Qi, who was in charge of counting military merits, jumped up at the top of his throat and scolded his mother for being a damn job that is not something that humans can do!
Originally, the killing talents of the Northern Imperial Guard rushed out to kill people, but later there were a lot of killing talents of the East China Sea Fleet, and a lot of pirates also mixed in.
If it were usual, the pirates did not count their military merits, and just scratched some prisoners and threw them at them, it would be considered as solving the problem.
But what about this time?
No living gulf is left, where are there prisoners? What should we do with these pirates? We still have to reward what should we pay, right? How to record it?
Especially when he was stabbing people with a knife before, Wang Qi rushed forward with a knife. He didn't even remember how many people he had chopped. How could he count the military merits of others?
Of course, this is not the key. After all, there are 18,000 barbarians and 5,600 Northern Imperial Guards who kill people, and on average, each person can get three heads. But how should the goods of the East China Sea Fleet be calculated?
They are completely different from pirates. They are friendly troops coming to support them. Can they still be greedy for their military achievements?
There is also the dead eunuch named Ye Yang. Such an alien appeared in the eunuch in the custody. Shouldn’t he raise a few concubines in the embassy and be a blessing every day?
He is so active in stabbing people with a knife, and he is so happy!
So, Wang Qi was angry. The scumbags of the Northern Imperial Guard were just catching people, but no one knew how many people they had killed, which made it impossible to calculate the military achievements now.
Bai Geng didn't care much about this matter. He didn't bring many people anyway. Without affecting his combat power, he drew a total of one thousand households. The remaining two thousand people were pirates from Li Azi.
Even so, the number of people added up to 8,000 is less than 9,000. Even if the military merits of 18,000 barbarians are divided equally, it is enough to ensure that everyone can get two heads.
Two heads, in addition to normal military merits, also mean a reward of ten taels of silver!
After Cao Bianjiao scolded Wang Qi for a while, he had no choice but to accept Bai Geng's statement that everyone divided the heads evenly. Just calculate the two heads per person, and give the extra ones to the pirate leaders.
As for the great contribution of killing Cromwell, it was naturally Cao Bianjiao's own. Before Bai Geng, Li Aoi and others arrived, Cao Bianjiao had already killed Cromwell, and no one else could rob him.
Just as Bai Geng and Cao Bianjiao and others were discussing how to divide the military achievements, Nan Juyi was also having a headache on the ship.
After summoning a large number of horsemen, Nan Juyi threw out his ideas based on the comprehensive information obtained from various aspects. This time, the two forces involved.
Needless to say, the East India Company's bastards, which had been dealt with in a wave of East India Company, have been dealt with in a wave of times before, but this time they are still dying and causing trouble.
The other one is the Mughal Kingdom, a huge country with a size of about half the size of the Ming Dynasty.
The East India Company is easy to solve, but now it has not found where their old nest is. Once it is found, the East China Sea Fleet is confident enough to send them to death.
Mughal was not so easy to solve, and his land area was not small. It was basically unlikely that the East China Sea Fleet would want to eat it.
Even if you add all the bastards in the South China Sea Fleet, you may not be able to do it.
This is the headache for Nanjuyi.
Military merits still have to be divided out. Not only those bastards from the South China Sea Fleet, but also unknown how many bastards from the garrison are coming to get a share of the pie.
After Secretary Mingzhang spread out the huge chart, Nan Juyi pointed to the chart and said, "Please look at it. According to the current chart, this place called Chennai is the location of a branch of the East India Company, and it is also a heavy city in Mughal.
We can go straight south from this and go around the west of Bogu Bay, and then we can go west through the sea and go straight to Chennai.
At the same time, you can contact Zheng Zhilong of the South China Sea Fleet, let this bastard take Mangglor directly, and then let the South Imperial Army in their fleet go east and meet with our army again.
Once this combat goal is achieved, the entire Tamil Nadu and Kerala will fall into the hands of our Ming Dynasty, and even Karnataka and Andhra Pradesh are within their reach.
What do you think?"
Qianhu Xie Xutao immediately bowed and said, "Report to the Admiral, with the strength of my East China Sea Fleet, we can actually directly capture the entire area south of Andhra Pradesh through Chennai. As for that Karnataka, there are still many mountains and forests separated from Tamil Nadu. There is no need to worry for a while?"
Nan Juyi said with a hush, "What do you mean?"
Xie Xutao bowed and said, "It is better to contact the South China Sea Fleet and ask them to seize Kerala and ignore Karnataka for the time being.
Once Tamil Nadu and Kerala fall into the hands of our Ming Dynasty, our East China Sea Fleet and South China Sea Fleet will have permanent bases and ports.
With this as the foundation, if you want to continue to advance northward, Guohe and Telen Gandhi are truly within your reach, and can also reduce a considerable amount of pressure on the Ming army in Myanmar."
Nan Juyi nodded and nodded, "Since that's the case, I'll send someone to contact Zheng Zhilong, and give him the military merits this time, and make him owe me a favor to the East China Sea Fleet!"
...
In fact, Zheng Zhilong is also having a headache now.
Zheng Zhilong planned to send someone back to the Ming Dynasty to complain to the Governor's Office of the Five Army, and to get some double flower red sticks or something.
How could the East India Company, a ghost thing, still meet them in this West Kunlun land! Oh my god!
It is already very hard to kill the barbarians and to be exposed to the sun here, okay? As a result, I still have to fight with these barbarians now!
What made Zheng Zhilong even more crazy was that the entire South China Sea Fleet had to maintain its combat capabilities at sea, and from time to time to deal with the bastards of the East India Company.
The entire Southern Imperial Army was constantly clearing out the barbarians, and at the same time, it was also constantly causing trouble for the East India Company.
In short, it was a mess and there were too many messes, which made Zheng Zhilong very confused.
When Zheng Zhilong received the news from Nanjuyi, his first reaction was his mother!
Is this world big or too big? But if it is small, it can't be considered too small, right?
Why do these East India Company have them everywhere? Bastard! The ghosts are still falling apart every day, and they are specifically for disgusting Admiral?
After summoning a group of horsemen under his command, Zheng Zhilong threw Nan Juyi's letter to Zheng Zhifeng and asked, "Xiao Wu, what do you think about this?"
Zheng Zhifeng said with a gloomy face: "No matter what the East India Company is, they must have an old nest.
In my opinion, as long as they find their old nest, basically all the problems can be solved once and for all."
Zheng Zhilong said: "Then what you mean is that we won't go to Mughal anymore?"
Zheng Zhifeng said: "How could it be that I didn't go? Did the elder brother forget why we went out to sea at the beginning?
When His Majesty transferred His Highness to the King of Tang and others, he said that Mughal was left to the vassal kings of the Ming Dynasty. The land here was two or three ripe for water a year, and there were gems everywhere.
Now these barbarians are trying to commit suicide and insist on provoking our Ming Dynasty. This is a great opportunity.
There is a way that God does not take, but instead suffers the consequences. How can I miss such a good opportunity?"
Zheng Zhihu spoke, "If you want me to tell me, why bother with so many worries? Just take those guys from Nan Yuweilin and go straight to Mangalore."
Zheng Zhifeng glared at Zheng Zhihu and said, "Admiral Nan asked me to go straight to Mangalore, and I will go there? I don't know the terrain and the language are not clear, what are the consequences of going directly? Isn't it like I am waiting in Xi Kunlun!"
Zheng Zhihu laughed and argued: "Terrain or something, we can go to Old Man Nan's East China Sea Fleet, right?
Even Old Man Nan doesn’t have it. We can catch some barbarian sea boats and get them from their hands, right?"
Zheng Zhifeng nodded and said, "That's right, but before the last resort, we can't catch the barbarians' sea ships. After all, in addition to those pirates, there are many serious merchant ships that cannot move."
Zheng Zhilong laughed and said, "No matter what the merchant ships are like, let's take the guys from the Southern Imperial Guards to Mangalore. If you encounter any pirate fleet of barbarians along the way, just take it down directly. There is no need to be polite to them anyway!
Lao Wu, please send someone to inform the killers of the Nanyu Lin Guard and tell them that there is a new job to do. Leave those barbarians first and wait until we come back from Mughal before continuing!”
Zheng Zhifeng did not send anyone to notify the commander of the Nanyu Linwei Shen Zhenjiang, but ran over to inform him in person.
Shen Zhenjiang was also confused when he received the news, and even refused.
Now that you are fighting with these barbarians, you are about to get the territory in front of you. Now you tell me that you want to give up the barbarians in front of you and run to fight Mughal to the death?
However, Shen Zhenjiang's rejection did not mean that military orders were as big as a mountain. Now that he had to be controlled by the South China Sea Fleet, he had to obey the orders of Zheng Zhilong, the admiral of the South China Sea Fleet.
As long as Zheng Zhilong did not let himself rebel or cause trouble on the territory of the Ming Dynasty, then it would not be considered a life-threatening situation and he had to obey.
Even if he could take down the mountain in front in a few days, even if he could completely kill the barbarians in a few days, Zheng Zhilong said he would go to Mughal to cause trouble, so he had to give up.
Seeing Shen Zhenjiang looking unwilling, Zheng Zhifeng said mysteriously: "Old Shen, do you know that the benefits of expedition to Mughal at this time are much greater than those in the West Kunlun land?"
Shen Zhenjiang said curiously, "What do you say?"
Zheng Zhifeng said: "It is true that there are barbarians here in Xi Kunlun, but most of the places are scattered barbarians, and there is not even a decent country, so they can't run away. I'll come back in the future.
However, the Mughal land is almost half as wide as that of our Ming Dynasty, and the population is more than 100 million.
Think about it, let’s not mention the land, the gems and minerals on the land, how much silver is it worth for this more than ten thousand barbarian?
In this broken place in West Kunlun, it’s okay to be hot, there are not many Kunlun slaves!
You count yourself and plan to come here. How many barbarians have you arrested in total?
No matter how large the territory is, what can we do if there are not enough barbarians?
It’s better to go and have that Mughal first. There are many martyrs. If you catch a martyr, it means a waste of money, brother!”
Shen Zhenjiang was also moved.
What Zheng Zhifeng said was the fact, and it was an obvious fact.
As the land of Tang Mu of the Queen Mother of the West, Xi Kunlun is extremely large and not forgot, but it’s even hot. It’s almost all summer seasons. You can endure all these.
The only thing that cannot be tolerated is that there are not many Kunlun slaves in West Kunlun!
In other words, those damn Kunlun slaves almost all exist in the form of tribes, not even a village, and some of them simply live in caves!
What's even more annoying is that once the army is over, these bastards will be scattered everywhere, and even the problem is that the man from the Nanyu Linwei guards will not look down on their little property!
And those damn white slaves, these bastards, even claiming sovereignty over this land?
That's his mother!
Since ancient times, it has been the land of Tang Mu for the Queen Mother of the West. How could you white slaves have sovereignty over this place?
Where should I place the Queen Mother of the West? Where should I place my Emperor of Ming Dynasty?
But it’s not OK to not fight these damn white slaves to death!
To be continued...
