Chapter 875 Summoning the Envoy(1/2)

After a burst of gunfire killed the Japanese on the merchant ship, the Ming army soldiers rushed to other merchant ships.

There is an order from above that all the Japanese people on the ship will die today, and no one will be left alive.

The Japanese people on other merchant ships saw that the situation was not good and hurriedly took up arms and prepared to resist. There were only a few dozen of them in total, and their resistance was like moths flying into the flames.

But a scene that the Ming army did not expect appeared. Before the Ming army could take action, the Dutch on the merchant ship gave up. They were worried that the behavior of the Japanese would completely anger the Ming army and lead to the death of all of them, so they actually took up arms and attacked the Japanese.

Launch an attack.

The Japanese never thought that the Dutch would rebel. The Japanese, who were only a small number in the first place, were no match for the Dutch and were quickly killed by the Dutch.

The sudden change in front of them made the Ming army a little bit dumbfounded, and also made them realize that Westerners are really unreliable and specialize in cheating their teammates...

At that time, Westerners did not have any patriotic thoughts in their hearts, nor did they share weal and woe. They put their interests first and everything they did was for their own benefit.

Once he realizes that there is no chance of victory and no chance of escape, he will raise his hands and surrender without any sense of shame.

The Chinese soldiers are different. When facing a strong enemy, even if they are the last person left, many martyrs will choose to die with the enemy and would rather die than be captured.

After the Dutch eliminated the Japanese, Huang Fei sent an order and his navy controlled four merchant ships to return home. The Dutch were well-behaved throughout the process and did not resist at all during the journey.

Huang Fei has been sitting in the command room, and he is still very satisfied with the handling of the Japanese pirates by his subordinates. Ming soldiers should have such courage.

Now, under the wise leadership of the Holy Sage, the Ming Dynasty is embarking on the road of great rejuvenation. Based on what the Japanese did to the Ming Dynasty in history, sooner or later there will be a war between the two countries, and this war is likely to be a war of annihilation.

Because its sail was damaged, the Dutch warship that escaped was eventually caught up by two warships led by Shi Lang.

After the opponent's warship entered the shooting range, the heavy artillery on the Ming army's warship violently bombarded it with explosive shells...

Dozens of explosive bombs directly bombarded the ship, five of which hit the deck of the Dutch battleship.

"Rumble..."

There were several loud noises, and explosive bombs exploded on the deck. Several large holes were blown in the deck. Two of the masts fell in the explosion. The speed of the sailing warship quickly slowed down, and the entire warship was bombed.

Shaking violently...

Dutch Captain Crewe was almost frightened and hurriedly gave the order to fire a counterattack. However, there were no naval guns on the bow of their warship. If they fired, they would have to turn the rudder and use side shells to attack the Ming warship.

If the rudder is turned sharply during high-speed navigation, it is likely to cause the ship to capsize. The helmsman did not dare to take risks unless he slowed down and turned the rudder to fight. However, they still had no chance of winning against the bombardment of three Ming warships...

During this period, three Ming warships were approaching at high speed and kept attacking with explosive bombs. Dozens of Dutch soldiers rushed to the deck to control the sails, but they were all killed by the Ming army's explosive bombs.

At that time, high-explosive bombs had not yet appeared, and it was difficult to easily sink an armored wooden giant in a short period of time. The simplest and crudest way was to ram it directly.

With the obvious advantage, the Ming army would not use their own warships to ram them, otherwise even wooden warships would be injured.

The sails of the Dutch warship were damaged and there was no chance of escape. Shi Lang was not in a hurry and ordered three warships to surround the Dutch warship and bombard it:

"Rumble..."

"Rumble..."

Numerous shells bombarded various parts of the battleship, and water began to enter the pierced hull. Seawater surged into the cabin. Almost at the same time, more than a dozen white flags were raised by Dutch soldiers in spite of the gunfire, and then came their stiff Chinese shouting:

"Don't fire, we surrender..."

Shi Lang watched coldly as the Dutch raised the white flag and did not order to stop firing.

If you can't fight, then run away. If you can't escape, then surrender. How can it be so cheap? You can just sink it...

Looking at those red-haired dogs struggling in the water, Shi Lang did not order them to be killed, nor did he order them to be rescued.

It wasn't that Shi Lang was cruel. The Dutch came all the way to seek death and were not worthy of sympathy. He then ordered the warship to return.

Zhu Chenggong was already waiting at the dock. He was very satisfied when he saw six warships returning intact and four merchant ships captured.

Seeing the Governor personally greeting him, Huang Fei and Shi Lang stepped forward to salute after disembarking from the ship:

"Captain, the Dutch fleet flew the Japanese flag in an attempt to pass through the Daming Sea. Our ships sank two Dutch warships and two merchant ships, and captured four merchant ships. The merchant ships were full of firearms and food!"

Zhu Chenggong nodded:

"The foreign devils actually played a trick of concealing the truth from the enemy, and they did a good job. I will return to the capital soon to report on my duties, and I will definitely ask for credit for the soldiers.

There is a shortage of people to develop Taiwan. All the captured foreigners are sent to build roads and docks. The Japanese have nothing to fear. In the near future, the Ming Dynasty will take action against them. The soldiers must train quickly to win every battle!"

All the soldiers answered in unison:

"Don't worry, Commander, we will train well."



Nanjing

After Zhu Cihong cleaned up the southern smuggling group and relevant officials, he and Zheng Zhilong inspected the Royal Naval Academy of the Ming Dynasty.

Now the Royal Naval Academy of the Ming Dynasty is full of talents, with more than 500 outstanding young students.

They are all future generals drawn from various armies and navies in the south. I believe that in the near future, they will all become outstanding commanders of the Ming Navy...

Zheng Zhilong, who has a calm mind, is now living a very comfortable life. He teaches students three days a week and patrols the coast guard for the other two days, with two days off. He has already started taking weekend breaks hundreds of years in advance...

The courses for students are very rich, including naval warfare tactics written by Zheng Zhilong based on his own actual combat experience, as well as training and naval warfare tactics given to him by Emperor Shenwu for future generations...

Zhu Cixiang also had a lot of time when he went south this time. After meeting with some southern officials, he focused on the Eight Beauties of Qinhuai.

Because the course of history was changed, Chen Yuanyuan and Liu Rushi were already helping the royal group manage restaurants and brothels in the capital, and Gu Meisheng was killed by Gong Dingzhi.

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! At this time, there were only five people in Nanjing: Dong Xiaowan, Li Xiangjun, Kou Baimen, Bian Yujing, and Ma Xianglan. They had no chance to have a relationship with those people in history.

Zhu Cixiang gave an order, and several people were invited to the Nanjing Palace by Hu Bao and Yue Yang.

Nowadays, everyone knows the name of Emperor Shenwu. When they heard that Emperor Shenwu had summoned them, they were both excited and nervous. After all, the little emperor was famous far and wide.

Since ancient times, beauties love heroes, and they are no exception. How can you not be excited to see the mythical Shenwu Emperor?

What is important is the reputation of Emperor Shenwu. It is said that the green-faced fangs are ugly. If Emperor Shenwu is really like the legendary green-faced fangs, if Emperor Shenwu wants to keep them to serve, where will they go...

It can be seen that after seeing Emperor Shenwu, the eyes of several beautiful women were straightened, but the legendary green-faced and fanged appearance was ugly.

In addition to exuding the majesty of a superior, the young emperor in front of him is actually a handsome man with a slender figure and a face as beautiful as a crown jewel. Pan An and Song Yu are nothing compared to the young emperor...

In the past, they only loved talented people and didn't care much for prominent dignitaries. But now when they see the young emperor, their hearts are beating wildly...

At the age of eight, he supervised the country, killed corrupt officials, defeated the border slaves, promoted land reform at the age of nine, and killed corrupt officials and gentry in rivers of blood. At the age of twelve, he leveled the bandits, wiped out the slaves, and unified Mongolia...

At the beginning, some people might still question and deny Emperor Shenwu's reforms, but now it seems that any of Emperor Shenwu's reforms have won the hearts of the people.

Such a young emperor in a prosperous age, not to mention a few prostitutes, even princesses from other countries can only fall in love with him...

There were still some uneasy beauties when they arrived, but now they all wanted to bow down under the young emperor's dragon robe and willingly become slaves and maids...

In Zhu Cixiang's eyes, these people were all very good in terms of figure and appearance. Of course, Zhu Cixiang knew that all of them were talented women.

In terms of appearance alone, they are no better than Qin Mingyue, Shen Yunying, Mu Jianping, and Lin Ruyu, and they are not as outstanding as Zhu Cixang thought in later generations.

But they do have the capital to dazzle men all over the world. Every move they make is so beautiful and alluring, especially Dong Xiaowan and Kou Baimen.

Zhu Cixiang waved his sleeves, and five bottles of Coke appeared in front of the five beauties. They were all secretly surprised:

"Emperor Shenwu has such magical methods, he is really the descendant of Emperor Ziwei's star!"

After some conversation, Zhu Cixiang finally decided to leave Dong Xiaowan and Bian Yujing in the Nanjing Palace, and they would definitely go south frequently in the future. Shen Yunying's mother would be in the world, and she would not be able to accompany him everywhere. He would just have them serve him when the time comes.

Unexpectedly, after hearing Emperor Shenwu's decision, the other three beauties showed disappointment on their pretty faces and bowed down one after another, claiming that they voluntarily stayed as slaves to serve the emperor.

Since the three beauties voluntarily stayed as slaves, Zhu Cixiang would not refuse anyone who came. His greatest wish during time travel was to save the last dynasty of the Han people, and his second greatest wish was to own the Three Palaces and Six Courtyards...

In the next few days, the women began to take turns to fight, and they began to sleep together on the eighth day. Of course, Zhu Cixiang had to deal with Shen Yunying alone for three days...

Fortunately, Zhu Cixi's body had been modified by the system, otherwise he would really be unable to bear it...

Twenty days later, Zhu Cixiang led the guard to return to Beijing by boat. Before leaving, he specially brought Bian Yujing and Kou Baimen with him. The return to Beijing by boat was slow. For several days in a row, Zhu Cixiang was worried that he would be bored...

It took Zhu Cihong a month to arrive in the capital. On the first day he went to court, the Minister of Honglu Temple issued a memorial:

"Your Majesty, after you went south, envoys from the Northwest Heshuo Khanate, Jungar Khanate, Yarkand Khanate, etc. came to Beijing to pay homage to you."

During this time, the Minister of Honglu Temple was really busy. The evil governor of the Netherlands in Batavia complained first and actually sent an envoy to Beijing to protest against the Ming Dynasty for sinking its warships and killing its soldiers, and demanded that the two countries must establish trade as soon as possible...



Spain also sent envoys to protest against the Ming Dynasty for sinking their free-navigating warships, and demanded that the Ming Dynasty compensate for the losses and reduce tariffs.

The Minister of Honglu Temple did not see them at all, and appointed a small official to clearly express the Ming Dynasty's position to them.

The warships of the Ming Dynasty were performing official duties in their own waters. Their warships entered the waters of the Ming Dynasty without permission and were sunk at their own risk.

The Dutch ambassador was livid with anger, and threatened Honglu Temple. If the matter was not taken seriously, the Netherlands would send a large number of warships, and a full-scale war would most likely begin...

The Minister of Honglu Temple in the Ming Dynasty smiled disdainfully and immediately showed the Ming Dynasty's attitude to the Netherlands and Spain.

No matter how many warships they send, if they dare to enter the Ming Sea and sink them all, they can declare war if they are not satisfied.

Both the Netherlands and Spain know that the current Ming Dynasty is far from comparable to the early Ming Dynasty, and they both left in despair in the end.

Now that the Ming Dynasty has revived, it is very tough in diplomacy. No country can make the Ming Dynasty give in. Anyone who offends the Ming Dynasty will be punished no matter how far away it is!

Since the late Yuan Dynasty, the national power has begun to weaken. The Mongol Empire that swept across Europe and Asia has become an empty frame, and the whip of God is no longer able to twitch.

To those Western countries, a sick tiger is worse than a cat. Many countries stopped paying tribute to the Yuan Dynasty and directly severed diplomatic relations, let alone meeting the emperor.

Since Emperor Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang of the Ming Dynasty ruled China, he has worked hard to develop production, which has gradually restored China's vitality and strengthened its national power.
