The first thousand two hundred and two chapters win
When Song Ke sighed to the sky, Chang Wei, Li Pingzhi, Zhang Xuwen and others were so excited that they couldn't help themselves.
While these young people in their twenties were cheering and jumping, Sun Jingting just smiled.
Of course, Sun Jingting was very excited to win this naval battle, but it was just excitement and happiness.
The situation on the grassland is really dangerous. Once you lose, you will be doomed. At that time, the victory or defeat is related to life and death. At most, Taiwan will develop for a few years later...
Of course, Sun Jingting didn't know Zhang Han's concern. If the naval battle is lost, it would not be delayed for several years. It is very likely that this large seaside boundary will no longer be owned by China. Unless the shipbuilding base is moved to Kuandian, Pidao and Kuandian, and a powerful fleet will be rebuilt, it is rare to see if it is difficult to say whether the large fleet that has not been combated has the power to fight.
If you win, Zhang Han's happiness will definitely be unreserved and will be much happier than Sun Jingting.
As for Chang Wei and others, they simply jumped up.
Sun Jingting is not a person in the game, and I don’t know how much pressure Chang Wei and others have been under in the past six months.
Every day, I watched the enemy ships pass by the sea in front of me with great might, driving Hutchison's merchant ships back to the port, or simply threatening them with artillery fire, and laughing at the sea to drive Hutchison's ships back to the port.
The Jiangnan merchant ship who was willing to hand over the safe situation was intercepted and re-collected the reputation of the Great Disadvantage.
Raw silk merchants along the coast are not allowed to sell silk to Hutchison again.
Such insults have been rubbed by the other party for more than half a year. It is unbearable for the elderly to endure this kind of insult, not to mention that Chang Wei and others, who are in their early twenties, are the most bloody and strong young men.
It is conceivable that they have suffered so much, how frustrated they are, and they are thinking about the day of revenge.
And the day finally came, the enemy's flagship was burned and sunk, four ships were captured, and hundreds of Dutch people were captured. Although it was not a complete victory, it was not an exaggeration to say that it was a victory.
It not only defeated the Dutch, but also reduced its strength by more than half.
Yes, the loss is more than half.
Although only two large Galen ships were captured, the flagship Batavia was not a Galen ship transformed by a large sailboat, but was built seriously based on the foundation of the warship, with the most artillery and the strongest firepower. Hutchison had no chance to be captured, but the Batavia was simply burned down through the rotation of attacks by bird ships and fireboats.
Hutchison was not obtained, but the Dutch also lost a very important and powerful flagship, which was a very powerful blow to its morale and reputation.
The Batavia is not only a flagship, but also a symbol, a symbol of the strong existence of the Netherlands on the waters of Southeast Asia and East Asia.
This ship that can intimidate the Spaniards, Portuguese and Dutch has made great contributions.
After being burned by Hutchison, what he lost was not just a flagship, but also many tangible things sank along with the flagship.
"The Dutch will be in trouble." Li Pingzhi said: "I don't know if they will transfer ships from Europe."
"It is unlikely to transfer the ship." Zhang Xuwen shook his head and said, "It will take at least half a year to transfer the news and then transfer the warships. It has been a long time since we had a result with us, so why should we rush to transfer the ships? Besides, I heard that the Netherlands is not without enemies in Europe. Although its maritime power is strong, the East India Company is just a company. Although it is strongly supported by our country, it is not a government. This is not much different from ours. It is just that we are thorns in our eyes on the Ming Dynasty. Their company has received support from the state, so it is here. After all, it is the system issue that the adults mentioned."
Zhang Xuwen's words aroused everyone's feelings.
Whether it is going north to the grassland or south to Taiwan, what they are fighting for is not the land of the Ming Dynasty. What they do is actually beneficial to China.
This is also the reason why the literati and officials from serious scholars such as Sun Jingting are willing to follow Zhang Han, which is beneficial to China without harming the country. Everyone can understand the suspicion of the court, but when they are in a situation, they become a member of the suspicion. No matter how they understand it, the resentment in their hearts is still difficult to resolve.
What did Hutchison do to be sorry for the Ming Dynasty? From top to bottom, he looked like he was wary?
Not to mention the achievements of going north, even if the battle of Thirteen Mountains is a great contribution to the Ming Dynasty, right?
In the Ming Dynasty, logistics was smooth and industry was beneficial to business, and it had no contribution to the prosperity and development of the north of the Ming Dynasty? How many loud horses were killed along the southward route? The court was an attitude, and the people below passed on their mouths, so what was their view on the Hutchison?
Today, nature is actually the foundation of benevolence. Judging from the private communication between the senior officials of Hutchison, if you change to an emperor with a mean foundation, such as Emperor Shizong of that year, I am afraid that the order to search Hutchison would have been issued, regardless of whether you have made great contributions in the north!
In Zhang Han's words, this is a system issue.
In Britain, which is also a monarchy, the queen can issue private orders to the ship owners below, and the British government will take care of the stolen wealth for them and everyone will share the accounts together.
Even the Queen will invest in equity and inject equity into those pirates. The Queen will pay for shipbuilding, and the pirates will go out to grab it, and they will get it back and share the accounts.
This is not the novelist's words, it is just a fact that happened in history.
In order to plunder wealth, the European countries of this era were completely shameless, and they were completely different from their unfilial descendants.
Of course, the same is true for the Netherlands East India Company. It is not convenient for the government to stand out. It is formed by a company recognized by the state. The land it stolen is 10,000 miles away, and it is also managed by the company. The country does not have to worry about whether it is too big to become a king. Originally, this country was formed by a group of merchants and bankers. As long as there is profit, who would be willing to stand out as a king?
On the Ming Dynasty, there was a real fear. The power of the monarch was the supreme rule, and the imperial power covered everything. Even if you were a noble relative, powerful as the chief minister of the cabinet, or as remote as fishermen on the island, everything belonged to the emperor.
Under this system of centralized imperial power, of course, we will be wary of anything that may threaten imperial power. To sum it up in Zhang Han's words, it is a system issue.
These four words in later generations are the root of the quarrel. At this moment, Li Pingzhi and Chang Wei and others sincerely agreed, and they all nodded in their approval.
Chang Wei nodded with a smile and continued, "There is no need to talk about the troublesome things. Today, we won't talk about Tianyou, but we will be able to command the soldiers and use their lives. Capturing four enemy ships and sinking their flagships is really not small. We only sank one Xinpingbao, and the rest of the ships were injured. In terms of the results, we won a complete victory."
Li Pingzhi continued: "There should be a matter of real negotiations below... I don't know when the Tiancheng Wei will return."
"I have reminded Zheng Zhilong to be careful of the Dutch." Chang Wei said calmly: "I can't beat the schooner, and I can leave at any time if I want to. With the care of the eldest son of the Li family, I will never be treated by the Dutch in Hirado."
"If you start another negotiation, let's talk in Taiwan." Zhang Xuwen said: "Now we have the confidence to say this."
Li Pingzhi said: "Who is going to meet Xu Xinsu? I'll go?"
Chang Wei said: "You are in charge of the Industrial and Commercial Bureau, of course it is the most suitable for you to go there. Thank you for your hard work."
Li Pingzhi hugged his fist and said, "This is natural and unavoidable. In addition to seeing Xu Xinsu, of course, he had to meet Zheng Junmen and General Yu. The matter below had to be busy for a while, and he had to make some noise. He also had to take care of them in advance."
Zhang Xuwen had no special expression when he heard this. He understood Li Pingzhi's words, but he was mainly concerned about the agriculture, animal husbandry and local people on the island. He was not very interested in the matters in Fujian, so Li Pingzhi would do it.
Of course Chang Wei also understood... The repeated calls from Fujian were very annoying here, so some accounts had to be settled. Xu Xinsu could not move, and he could not move those ordinary raw silk merchants and small and medium-sized maritime merchants?
I vomited it out after eating it. How bad my attitude was, I have to prepare for the price I have now.
It’s okay if you don’t obey. Don’t go to sea for dinner, and don’t prepare to go to sea with raw silk.
Zhang Xuwen couldn't do such a thing even if he was willing to do it. He would probably have a lot of blood and tears if he had many scheming and conspiracy methods.
Chang Wei can't walk away, and Li Pingzhi happens to be a good man.
"Go with Jiang Kui." Chang Wei ordered: "If some people can tell them to disappear, don't be too polite. You can do whatever you want."
Of course, there is also a military intelligence branch in Taiwan and a Fujian branch in Fujian. Chang Wei knew that Jiang Kui was the highest in charge of the two branches in Taiwan, and Zhang Han was also a personal guard in charge of military and internal affairs. Therefore, Zhang Han and Chang Wei were both relieved to generalize the military intelligence and trust Jiang Kui's ability.
Of course, if Jiang Kui set up the 11th Regiment's rack, he would focus on military affairs in the future and hand over the military information to others to take charge of it.
It was obvious that Chang Wei's murderous aura was not concerned about Chang Wei's words, but Li Pingzhi didn't care and agreed casually.
Zhang Xuwen frowned slightly. The two of them didn't take human lives seriously. Do they have to beat them up? Don't make too much trouble in Fujian? However, Zhang Xuwen is not a slander. Then he thought, Li Pingzhi was still right.
When Hutchison was weak, those people's behavior could not be simply attributed to villains' behavior, but rather a behavior of surrendering to the enemy. Some of them were not punished excessively. Once the Dutch came, wouldn't these fencemen fall over again?
And if you want to regain the peace, you must of course use some thunderous means, which must be scared. If you don’t want to hurt good deeds, you just happen to attack those guys who are both businessmen and thieves and don’t open your eyes. Kill a group of people, and naturally you will be afraid of the rest.
Even if there are any recurrences in the future, the maritime merchants in Fujian and Zhejiang will consider choosing sides so as not to make any mistakes and will be retaliated by Heji using thunder means later.
