It was not until the evening that Mattus returned to his camp. With him, dozens of Ming medical staff in white coats and trucks of medical equipment were also brought back. After arriving, Mattus immediately ordered the arrangement of houses for these people next to his residence. Soon after, the wounded were transported here one by one.
At the request of Mattus, these Ming medical staff were squeezed out to him by Yu Rongguang from the few medical staff in Yangang.
The negotiations between the two sides went smoothly. At least for most of the day, the big framework has been determined, and the remaining details will naturally be discussed slowly.
Under the leadership of Yu Rongguang, Mattus visited the huge warehouses of the Ming army here and saw the full of food and weapons. These things made Mattus sad. Yu Rongguang said it was right. Even if he continued to fight like this, he might not be able to really capture this small inkstone port.
The last one to go to Yangang Hospital. The perfect medical equipment and the numerous medical staff surprised Mattus and also remembered his large number of injured people. Because of lack of medical treatment and medicine, he was struggling in pain on the brink of death. Since he had already decided to truce, Mattus felt that being able to pull these people back from the brink of death was the greatest protection of his property.
Yu Rongguang was very happy and agreed to Mattus' request immediately.
Mattus, who had obtained a large number of medicines and medical staff, was not interested in eating the dinner specially prepared by Yu Rongguang, so he hurried back to the camp with these people.
"Where is Qin Li? Where is Qin Li? Call him to see me immediately." Mattus, who returned to his base camp, faced a large gang of generals under his command, and said nothing else. The first sentence was to ask Qin Li what he was.
"Grand Duke, I saw him earlier." A general looked around and didn't see Qin Li's figure. He was a little surprised. You know, Qin Li was inseparable from Mattus along the way.
"Finish him and bring him to me immediately!" Mattus looked at his personal guard officer on one side and said, "If he dares to rebel, tie him up and bring him over. However, he cannot hurt his life."
"Yes, Grand Duke!" The officer immediately took the order and left.
Everyone in the room was puzzled. The Grand Duke always regarded Qin Li as his confidant and important adviser. Why did he turn against him now?
But Mattus was anxious. He had never thought that Qin Li was so valuable earlier. After reaching an agreement with Yu Rongguang on the big framework, when he visited the important facilities in Yangang, he casually said that a person named Qin Li was in his camp.
But who would have thought that the reaction named Yu Rongguang was so great. As long as he could deliver the alive Qin Li to his hands, he would give Mattus ten artillery free of charge when Mattus returns to the Western Continent.
Ten artillery! Thinking of those shiny black guys, Mattus felt a heat in his heart. He suffered a lot from such a weapon in the attacks these days. His catapults and crossbows had not yet been used to the slightest use, and they were destroyed by them. When his loyal and brave soldiers launched a fierce charge, they were blown away by them.
But such a sharp weapon is also quite touching. A cannon costs 5,000 taels of silver and a shell cost ten taels of silver.
A mere Qin Li is worth 50,000 taels of silver, which is not counted as a base shell equipped by Rongguang. A base cannon is fifty shells, and ten cannons cannons cannons, which is another 5,000 taels of silver.
When the officers in the room saw this situation, they immediately knew that their grand duke had probably reached some agreement with the Ming people opposite, so that they would arrest Qin Li.
Mattus watched the person who captured Qin Li left the house, then waved his hand and said, "Close the door."
An oil lamp was lit in the middle of the long table, and the dim light shone on the faces of all the officers. It was sunny and sunny, and everyone was nervous and excited. Looking at the appearance of the grand duke, of course something big was about to happen.
The people in the room were all Mattus's confidant generals, and those leaders of small forces following Mattus's are naturally impossible to participate in such a meeting.
"Everyone, our war with the Ming people is over." Mattus said in a low voice: "I have reached an armistice agreement with the Ming people."
The long exhalation sound of everyone came from the house. This battle had already made everyone in the house frightened. The heavy casualties made every general lose the confidence to win. This was just a small island, facing only a few thousand enemies. If the enemy had tens of thousands, so what?
You know, this is the enemy's territory, and their base camp, the Tiger Dynasty, is more than a thousand miles away from here?
"In addition, a message is to be informed to everyone." Matt Uston paused and said: "His Majesty Dansi has suffered a heavy defeat in attacking Manila. All the warships have been destroyed, and all the people including Drop have been killed. Now, His Majesty Dansi has only barely landed in Manila with less than 30,000 troops."
There were sounds of gasping in the room.
There is no doubt that his personal guards, led by Danci, were the backbone of the Tiger Dynasty. It was precisely because of this force that Danci firmly suppressed all powerful dukes like Mattus and had to bow down and obey. Now, this force has been beaten like this by the Ming people.
What is the purpose of landing the army of 20,000 to 30,000 troops here? Their 50,000 troops were still beaten to the terrible surprise by the Ming people. I think the one who hit His Majesty Dansi in Manila was definitely not the only troops of a few thousand people in front of them.
Everyone watched Matus Dansi be finished, and once His Majesty Dansi is gone, how long can the Tiger Dynasty last? Although His Majesty Dansi remained in the country, although His Majesty Dansi still has tens of thousands of troops left to him, the Crown Prince is not His Majesty Dansi.
A wise officer's eyes were shiny, and he looked at Mattus and asked, "Duke, can we go home?"
With this reminder, even the slowest officer in the room reacted. His Majesty Dansi was about to be finished, but the Grand Duke reached an agreement with the Ming people, so they could go home. If they could return to the Western Continent, this would be a great opportunity for them.
"If I can't go home, what's the value of the agreement I reached with the Ming people?" Mattus glanced at the first officer who reacted with appreciation. "We can indeed go home soon."
With his eyes slowly swept over everyone, Mattus said: "We can not only go home, but we can also buy the weapons from Mingren that have brought us all the hardships these days."
Everyone's eyes lit up again. These weapons have caused them to suffer heavy losses these days, but if they can have them, wouldn't they be able to sweep the Western Continent when they return to the Western Continent?
"Duke, what do we need to pay?" the officer who first asked again.
"Of course, there is no free lunch in the world." Mattus said: "The weapons they sell us are expensive."
"If it's just expensive, then there's nothing. Money is just something outside of it. Without it, we can make money again!" Some people disagree.
"The Ming people demanded the right to travel freely within the area controlled by me, Matteus, in the future." Matteus continued: "They want to set up an embassy on our territory to facilitate communication with us, to set up a trading hall, and to facilitate trade with us."
"Is it okay to just trade?" someone asked. It seems that the conditions are very favorable!
"Yes, they only demand the right to trade freely," said Mattus. "When we leave, we can take away a batch of these weapons, and of course, we have to pay a lot of money for them."
Everyone was silent, as if they had nothing now.
"But we have no money now."
"So they proposed another plan. We left some soldiers to fight for them in order to repay the first-point weapon!" said Mattus.
"Leave the soldiers to fight for them?" This proposal surprised the officers in the house.
"Yes, the Ming official named Yu Rongguang told us very frankly that they were going to fight a war to dominate the world with another powerful enemy on this continent. He was also interested in us brave warriors. If we were willing to use this as part of the repayment, he would be very happy."
"Da Duke, our battle this time has suffered a lot, and now there are only 30,000 people left. When we return to the Tiger Dynasty, we need these elite troops." An officer shook his head and said.
"I will leave five thousand people, and another five thousand people will be selected from the injured soldiers!" Mattus said: "Now we will return to our hometown as soon as possible. If the injured, if we follow us, the sea is vast and there is no doctor or medicine, we will be damaged in vain. Let the Ming people treat them and then fight for the Ming people. I think the injured soldiers are willing to do this arrangement. Although we only have 25,000 left, with these sharp weapons of the Ming people, it is not difficult to control the situation after we go back. As long as we return to our hometown, why worry about not being able to find soldiers?"
Everyone in the room nodded repeatedly, and this is naturally the best solution.
"Dagong, can the Ming people reach an agreement with us, where is Stenson?"
"Since the Ming people can reach an agreement with us, they can naturally reach an agreement with Stenson!" Mattus's face darkened. He remembered what Yu Rongguang said at that time. In addition to Dance, they might have reached an agreement with any powerful faction in the Western Continent. Stenson is not a stupid person. Once he knows Dance's current situation, he will be afraid that he will immediately withdraw. "This is why I want to reach an agreement with the Ming people as soon as possible."
Stenson's strength in the Tiger Dynasty is quite stronger than Mattus. This is why Stenson can lead his troops to attack Pattaya and he can only come to Yangang.
