Chapter 569 They are all companies
I have to be afraid.
But change the aspect.
The Zheng family is also very scared.
The Black Flag Navy colluded with the Nanyang Fleet. Even if Zheng Zhilong knew that Wang Chengen was involved with the Black Flag, now that they were fighting side by side, two hundred powerful battleships and seven battleships were equipped with artillery that was extremely terrifying to the Zheng Family Navy.
.
This has great potential to rewrite the maritime order.
Since Zheng Zhilong started his career, he has never faced such a powerful opponent.
In the past, the Dutch fleet was an absolutely powerful enemy for him at that time, but it was pale and powerless in front of these two ships. There was no possibility of a head-on battle, and he could only use ships and human lives to pile them up.
What's even more terrible is.
In the past, other pirates at sea were fighting against the Dutch. He relied on his own power and base on land to protect his base against the wind, and to expand his maritime advantage with the help of his land base.
The family business is still quite stable.
But now these two opponents have stronger power on land than he does.
Failure at sea means failure on land.
As for the strength of the Zheng family’s official party at sea,
There are three thousand ships, but there are not enough small merchant ships. Large ships such as bird ships are mostly armed merchant ships, and they cannot all be fully armed warships.
The Yiguan Party is a maritime trade organization, transformed from the Eighteen Zhi, which was originally composed of many armed merchant groups.
Even if Zheng Zhilong, the Pirate King, is single-handedly in charge, there are many gangsters under him who come to fight, and one official party will definitely cause trouble.
Don't dare to fight on one side.
Neither side dared to pick it up.
So the situation at sea was frozen.
It's just that the Zheng family thought it would be best if they could talk it over and persuade them to leave.
Lin Wang on the other side just didn't dare to fight for the time being, but he never gave up his intention to fight. After all, His Majesty's order was there.
"From Nanyang Company?"
"Exactly, Master, the general manager of the company is still the same as before and wants to discuss with you, Master, the matter of Da Yuan Island."
Lin Wang was full of joy and was about to prepare.
The longed for is finally here.
As soon as he stood up, the person who came to deliver the message had not yet finished: "But the steward also asked the master if you would like to see the Dutch, and their East India Company came here."
"Oh? Did you tell me why you met me?"
"Return to the master, I didn't say anything."
Lin Wang frowned, looked at Sun Qin and nodded: "We'll talk about it first!"
The struggle between the Zheng family and the Dutch East India Company in the waters of East China and South China in the Ming Dynasty has never stopped. Even though the Zheng family defeated a large number of armed merchant ships at sea before, there is something hidden in the seemingly innocuous name of Sea Coachman.
Full of gold content.
However, the official party of the Zheng family definitely greatly hindered the development of maritime trade and commerce of the Dutch East India Company in the Ming Dynasty.
So the Dutch East India Company has focused on two things in recent years.
The first is to kill the Zheng family.
The second is to achieve ideal cooperation with the Zheng family.
If you lose, you lose. You still have to do business, right?
But the problem is that neither of these things were accomplished.
The ideal cooperation was not achieved.
However, there is still cooperation between the Netherlands and the Zheng family. For example, by paying protection fees regularly, you can do business safely in the waters of South China and East China.
So after the Battle of Hangzhou Bay and the Battle of the East China Sea, the Dutch East India Company smelled the smell and came.
In other words, it’s hard not to smell it.
There is their city on Da Yuan Island.
It was built by the Spanish before and was called San Salvador City. After the Spanish Armada disappeared, its control over overseas countries naturally declined, so the city was captured by the Dutch.
Renamed North Holland.
The Zheng family did not have complete actual control over Taiyuan Island, and there was nothing they could do against the local indigenous people. North Holland City paid protection fees to the Zheng family, so this colonial city still stands today.
The place where North Holland City is located is called the "chicken coop" by the locals.
When the Black Flag Navy arrived at Taiyuan Island, it was in the north of Taiyuan Island. The North Holland City watched the Black Flag Navy galloping on the sea. The Zheng family's ships were able to retreat from the harassment and did not dare to fight with them.
"The noble Marquis of Black Flag! My name is Weinand Libert, the captain of the Sea Lion, and also the Speaker of North Holland City. I am very happy to meet you."
"Um."
During a meeting, both parties were dressed up in fancy clothes, one after another.
There were also many servants and armored warriors behind him.
Lin Wang maintained the arrogance of a Marquis of the Kingdom of Heaven and a Governor of the Navy, while Wynand Libert, who was opposite him, also had the arrogance and shrewdness of the strongest maritime kingdom and 'coach driver' in his earnestness.
The two sides looked at each other.
Lin Wang was a little disgusted, but after roughly understanding the Dutch power on Taiyuan Island, he thought about how to use them.
Wienander's eyes flashed.
Dutch Sea Trade already has fixed routes in Black Flag, and they purchase many gadgets produced in Liaodong.
Even due to the black flag phenomenon, they can only operate in fixed ports.
There is no way to touch the advanced technology of the Black Flag barbarians that they have heard and heard.
"I heard that you spent a lot of money to get the general manager of Nanyang Company to introduce you. Time is precious. If you want to do something in the conflict between our fleet and the Zheng family, just say so."
"Hey! What are you talking about? I just heard about your great achievements in Japan and Hangzhou Bay, and I admire you and want to make friends with you. This is just a little thought."
I saw a gorgeous little box pushed across from me.
Lin Wang could only nod.
What else can I do if I just accept what was delivered to my door?
He stretched out his hand so as not to hit the smiling person. After receiving the gift, he served some drinks and snacks and chatted while eating. Gradually, the purpose of both parties was revealed.
There is also a sense of hitting it off quite a bit.
Wienander represents the interests of the Dutch East India Company on Taiyuan Island, and wants to attack the Zheng family together with the Black Flag Navy and the indigenous clans on the island who have a bad relationship with the Zheng family, ensuring the safety of North Holland City.
It also expanded the Dutch influence on Taiyuan Island.
As for why he, a man who has always been guarded and ostracized in a foreign country, came to join forces with the Black Flag Navy.
The enemy of my enemy is my friend.
The Zheng family now represents the Ming Dynasty, and the Black Flag Barbarians and Jiannu are at war with the Ming Dynasty. Furthermore, the Black Flag Navy previously cooperated with the enemy's Nanyang Fleet.
It shows that the Governor of the Black Flag Navy is very good at doing business!
This Dayuan Island is far away from the Qing Dynasty. When the time comes, some land will be allocated to these barbarians and their wishes will be fulfilled. Later, we will get in touch with the company's superiors and let the company cooperate with the Black Flag Navy, whether on Dayuan Island or at sea.
They can suppress the Zheng family!
The tipsy Wienander also got approval from Lin Wang.
Cooperation is done!
"Master Lin! I will definitely give you a big gift after everything is done!"
He waved his hand to send Wienand off the ship, and sent a small fleet of boats to escort him back to the port city of North Holland on the Daguang Island.
When their small fleet of boats set sail, the smiles on Lin Wang and Sun Qin's faces suddenly turned cold.
"If I hadn't come here, I wouldn't have known that these damn Mao Yi people were so bold!"
"First, please send back the current situation and the status of the current situation of being stationed off the coast of Taiyuan Island, so as not to blame His Majesty."
"No, just send the letter to the Zheng family."
Chapter completed!
