Chapter 1012 Luzon Protectorate(1/2)
Emperor Shenwu was a murderer, and he would never let go of anyone who harmed the people of the Ming Dynasty.
Today, Coquilla and the Archbishop were not killed and they were equipped with guns. All the generals present were puzzled.
"Your Majesty, I don't understand that people who are not of my race must have different minds. These people should all be put to death. Why would Your Majesty leave them to die?"
"Your Majesty, I request that these foreigners who massacre the Ming people be executed immediately, and the Ming army will do its own thing to clean up the indigenous people in Luzon..."
Huang Degong, Zhu Chenggong, Yan Yingyuan, Zhang Shuting and other generals all stood up and saluted. They asked Emperor Shenwu to execute the Spaniards.
Zhu Cixiang looked at his generals, raised his hands and lowered his hands, and said with a smile:
"Sit down, do you want to know why I am like this?"
All the generals shook their heads:
"Your Majesty, I am so ignorant!"
Zhu Cixiang smiled slightly and said:
"Luzon is different from Malacca. They have not been friendly to China since ancient times. I want the indigenous people here to disappear and immigrate from Japan, Korea and other places in the future."
It is not appropriate for the Ming army to do this kind of thing. I decided to leave this matter to the Spaniards. Manila is their colony.
In other words, the Ming Dynasty and the Ming army do not bear the blame for the massacre of the indigenous people. They were all done by the Spaniards.
When local education is popularized in the future, this incident must be written into the history of Luzon, and the descendants of Luzon must know that their ancestors were killed by the Spaniards..."
When the generals heard this, they immediately smiled. No wonder Emperor Shenwu suddenly showed kindness and let the Spaniards take the blame. They hurriedly stood up and saluted:
"The Holy One is wise..."
Zhu Cixi smiled and nodded:
"Dong Jingguo, you send five thousand troops, put on Spanish military uniforms tomorrow and follow them. Any natives who are taller than a wheel will be killed without mercy."
Huang Degong stood up and saluted:
"According to the order!"
Huang Degong received the order and sat down. Zhang Shuting, who was sitting next to him, suddenly remembered what happened to Li Dingguo and stood up to salute Emperor Shenwu:
"Your Majesty, when I was ordered to rescue Akito, an army arrived in advance to support Akito. If they had not rescued him in time, when I arrived with my troops, I might have only seen Akito's body.
After being introduced by Yang He, the commander of Jinyiwei, the officials learned that this army was the remnant of Zhang Xianzhong, and the leader was Li Dingguo.
When they were in Taizhou, they were still hit by a typhoon. More than 10,000 people lost thousands of dollars, and only more than 1,000 people drifted to Luzon.
I have met the three Li Dingguo brothers. They are all brave. Li Dingguo said that if His Majesty is willing to surrender, Li Dingguo is willing to lead his army to surrender..."
All the generals present were surprised to hear that the remnants of Zhang Xianzhong's troops had drifted to Luzon. No wonder they mysteriously disappeared from Taizhou.
As for Li Dingguo's surrender, Huang Degong and others had no objections. Li Zicheng's subordinates could all accept the surrender, and Emperor Shenwu would naturally accept the remnants of Zhang Xianzhong.
Zhu Cixiang did not expect that Li Dingguo and the others would come to Luzon. His eyes suddenly brightened and he became a king...
Before time travel, Zhu Cixiang admired Li Dingguo very much, and was saddened by the tragic and heroic ending of the two famous kings.
After Zhang Xianzhong died, he never made a move against Li Dingguo. He just waited for him to surrender. Unexpectedly, Li Dingguo disappeared mysteriously...
Zheng Chenggong is so famous because he took back Taiwan from the Dutch.
He is a hero of the Chinese nation. He is not only a national hero of the Han people, but he is also praised for his resistance to the Manchus.
Li Dingguo was different. All his achievements were achieved in the fight against the Qing Dynasty. If he focused on propaganda like this, it would be seen as undermining national unity.
Therefore, among those who do not understand history, very few people know about Li Dingguo, and he is not even mentioned in history textbooks.
What is especially abominable is that not only did they not actively publicize it, but they also did not allow the public to spontaneously publicize it.
A few years ago, there was a historical drama "The River Flows East" that reflected the Ming and Qing dynasties. In it, the names of all the famous officials who resisted the Qing Dynasty in the Ming Dynasty were tampered with.
Li Dingguo was actually renamed Li Changsheng, Mr. Wang Chuanshan and Wang Fuzhi were renamed Wan Fuzi, He Tengjiao was renamed He Lingjia, and Mu Tianbo from Prince Mu's Mansion was renamed Mu Xianpo...
For the sake of so-called national unity, it is really funny to change the names of historical figures for broadcast.
This approach creates a confusing view of history and prevents frank and frank discussions. Instead, it covers things up. How can we achieve true national unity in this way?
From the perspective of resisting the Qing Dynasty, Li Dingguo's military exploits were far superior to Zheng Chenggong's. The Battle of Hengyang eliminated Prince Jingjin of the Manchu Qing Dynasty Nikan, and the Battle of Guilin eliminated the Manchu Qing Dingnan King Kong Youde, which had the potential to sweep Jingxiang.
If Zhu Chenggong has enough strategic vision and structure, and the two successfully join forces, they can protect at least half of the Southern Ming Dynasty.
Even with the cooperation of various anti-Qing forces, it is very possible to drive the Jian slaves out of Shanhaiguan...
Historically, Li Dingguo showed great power and finally died with hatred.
He has not yet shown his talents in this life, and others do not know his abilities, but Zhu Cixiang knows very well that how can Ming Zhongxing become the king without two defeats...
Zhu Cixiang said hurriedly:
"Quickly, let Li Dingguo come to see you!"
"According to the order!"
After a while, Li Dingguo walked into the governor's office and saw the young man sitting upright. He knew it was Emperor Shenwu and hurriedly went forward and knelt down to pay homage:
"Li Dingguo, the sinner, pays homage to the Holy One!"
Zhu Cixiang looked at Li Dingguo, stood up and stepped forward to help him up with his own hands:
"I'm flat, no need to be polite!"
The reputation of Emperor Shenwu was unknown to everyone, he killed people like crazy, and he laid down his corpse thousands of miles away in a rage...
This was Li Dingguo’s final conclusion about Emperor Shenwu. He would never have expected that the emperor would help him to level up with his own hands. Li Dingguo was immediately flattered and hurriedly knelt down to thank him:
"Thank you, Your Majesty. The common people are guilty. Please punish me, Your Majesty..."
Zhu Cixiang smiled slightly:
"You have saved the lives of thousands of civilians in this battle. Why are you guilty? Sit aside. This is an order..."
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
Emperor Shenwu ordered him to sit down. How dare Li Dingguo disobey and sit carefully on the chair, only daring to sit half of his butt...
The generals were not surprised that Emperor Shenwu was like this. The emperor was ruthless to his enemies and always approachable to his own people.
At this time, they all wanted to know what official title Emperor Shenwu would confer on Li Dingguo. Referring to Li Guo and others, under normal circumstances, they would confer a title on a guerrilla general.

At this time, Zhu Cixiang was also thinking about what official position it would be best to give Li Dingguo. He had just surrendered. The official title was too big and inappropriate, and the official title was too small. I'm sorry.
Li Dingguo.
After thinking for a moment, Zhu Cixi said:
"Li Dingguo, I will appoint you as deputy general, and Liu Wenxiu and Ai Nengqi as staff generals. They will still be under your command and will obey orders under the tent of Changping Marquis Zhang Shuting."
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
Li Dingguo hurriedly knelt down to thank him.
Zhu Cixiang raised his hand and said:
"Pingshen, the Ming army does not like to kneel down and salute, just salute."
"Today, only three of your brothers will be given official positions. For your officers and men, you can add them yourself according to their abilities, and then report them to Duke Jingguo."
"I obey the decree, and thank you Holy God for your grace."
Zhu Cixiang suddenly thought of tomorrow's events and said to Li Dingguo:
"You put on Spanish military uniforms and go killing people with Coquilla tomorrow. Remember, kill as many as you can..."
"According to the order!"
…
The second day
Zhang Shuting and Li Dingguo led five thousand Ming troops, led by the Governor of Manila and the Spanish Archbishop, and began to purge the anti-Ming indigenous people in Luzon.
At the same time, Zhu Cixiang was also discussing matters with Huang Degong and others in the Governor's Mansion.
Java, Malacca, Luzon, and Ceylon have all been captured by the Ming Dynasty. Later, the entire territory of Indonesia and Papua New Guinea were actually controlled and troops were stationed.
It can be said that the entire South China Sea area and the Strait of Malacca are all actually controlled by our Ming Dynasty.
Ming Dynasty will not colonize these places, but will turn these places into Ming Dynasty territory.
The anti-Ming indigenous people in this area, as well as the indigenous people who are unwilling to obey the rule of the Ming Dynasty, will not be allowed to exist by the Ming Dynasty and must disappear.
The Ming army will not do these things, and the Spaniards and the Netherlands will have to bear the blame.
Since ancient times, China has repaid evil with kindness and convinced others with virtue. This kind of virtue will obviously continue to be passed down.
Let the colonists do the immoral things, let them take the blame, and of course let them inherit the infamy.
Emperor Shenwu told the generals his thoughts. Although there were a few big bosses here, they still understood such a simple truth.
The generals admired the emperor's decision very much. In their opinion, they would just behead those people if they didn't accept it.
The emperor was killing people and killing people, which was more effective and clever than them directly slashing people with swords. All the generals stood up and saluted:
"Your Majesty is Holy Ming."
