Chapter 421 I killed his whole family for Emperor Yongle
There is a dragon boat full of Chinese style moored in Wusong River. The cabin is carved with dragons and phoenixes, and it is full of honor. It is like a gorgeous palace and pavilion. There is a high flagpole at the bow of the boat, and in the middle is a golden flag, which flutters with the sea breeze, with the word "yue" written on it.
The important position of the hull of this giant ship is wrapped in iron sheet, and the ship has all kinds of facilities. Since Zheng He went to the West, the Ming Dynasty has never seen such a dragon boat again.
Hou Xuanyan came from Longtan Port and prepared to go south to participate in the Naval Battle of Manlaca. The South Ocean was completely conquered by the white-skinned people. Various Western devils danced in the UK, Spain, the Netherlands, and Portugal. Under the tide of the west wind rising east, it was the essence of this era, plundering and accumulation.
After arriving at the Naval Base Camp of Wusongjiang Institute, Hou Xuanyan was also amazed by the dragon boat. Before being harmed by the Tartars, China's moves were indeed impressed.
A few personal soldiers led the way, Hou Xuanyan walked towards the dragon boat, stepped on the soft mat, and walked to every corner of the boat, which looked like a work of art. Such a dragon boat was like a moving palace, and it didn't require much artillery at all. Just swaying to the sea was a symbol of strength.
Hou Xuanyan was wearing a golden python robe, sat on the Grand Master's chair in front of the "attachment" with a golden sword, raised his hand and said, "Go away!"
Slowly, the dragon ship led the Songjiang Navy's fleet to Manraka to assist in the war.
The Dutch were caught off guard and were sneak attacked by the Fujian navy. By the time Hou Xuan came, they had already taken over the capital of the Johor puppet country.
Their palace is located in the ancient city of Malacca. The northwest suburb is the deep-water pier, which can quickly enter the sea.
More than 200 years ago, the huge fleet of the eunuch of Sanbao Zheng He had arrived here. That time, what he brought to the locals was porcelain, tea, silk and a kind smile. Two hundred years later, the Han people who set foot on this land again brought cannons and muskets, as well as a group of vicious Japanese Japanese.
All the royal members in the palace were taken to the dungeon, and therefore avoided the killing of the Japanese soldiers.
Countless treasures and the Dutch-stacked warehouses were sealed up by the navy and Zhejiang soldiers, waiting to be transported back to the country.
Halfway through the road, Hou Xuan heard the news of victory, but chose to continue. One was that he had already walked halfway, and the other was that he would personally arrange the defense of the Malacca. In this kind of place, the Dutch would not suffer the loss, and they would definitely come back to find the place.
The palace of Manlacia is more like an Indian style, and looks a bit low. Two rows of tall trees called Yuganzi are neatly planted in the square in front of the palace. Under the leadership of Wu Yi, the Fujian Navy welcomed Hou Xuanyan's arrival in front of the palace.
When Hou Xuan came, he wore a cotton coat and python robe. Now he has changed into a light spring outfit. It has been winter in Jinling for a long time in November of the old calendar. The cold wind is howling everywhere, so it becomes warm when you come here.
After landing, the Fujian navy by the sea was densely packed, stretching his neck to wait for Hou Xuanyan to arrive.
After the dragon boat arrived at the port, both the local natives and the navy officers and soldiers exclaimed a heartfelt amazement. Under the huge deck, two rows of guards were arranged in a row, holding swords and standing solemnly.
Hou Xuanyan slowly walked down the deck, looking a little tired. Wu Yi lowered his head and said to the young player next to him, "The prince is still the same. He doesn't like taking boats, especially sailing."
After Hou Xuanyan got off the ship, he was a little disappointed. This was not the prosperous port capital he imagined, and it was full of dilapidated and backward appearances.
I am used to staying in Jinling and Suzhou, and I am used to seeing the flat roads built over the years. Looking at the muddy dirt roads here is a bit annoying.
Wu Yi smiled and came forward. Shi Lang's sudden killing made him his contribution. Ben Ali led his troops from Japan to reinforce the battle of Taiwan Island, and happened to command the battle to capture Manlaga.
Hou Xuanyan saw this Taihu Shuihao from afar and said with a smile, "Wu Yi, this battle is good, I am going to command it myself, you will win in advance, haha."
Wu Yi smiled and said, "These strangers knew that the prince was coming, so they were so scared that they dared not fight, so they were picked up by the officials."
Hou Xuanyan laughed and shook his fingers and said, "You, you have been with Lao Zhu for a long time and have become slippery."
Hou Xuanyan couldn't help but sigh at Zhu Dadian's power. Such a tiger general has become so good at talking after spending a long time with him.
Although Wu Yi in history was a Jinshi, he was a genuine hero and brave man. Even the words he wrote had a clever sound.
The young man in the down-and-out field said that he was the king of kings, and the golden whip and jade bridle brushed the shedding willows. The swordsmen slaughtered the slaughter and rode away, calling for red makeup.
Singing and laughing beside the stove, building a striking high sun, bend your bow and shoot the sky wolf in your drunkenness. Where is the Shenzhou? Half a pillow is yellow beam.
The heroes are judged by success or failure, and the historical writing is hazy, and the affairs with Wu Bayue are in a hurry. How many people can do in Mo Lingyan, and people are tigers and dragons.
In the wine glasses with two bows, I met my life experience in a breeze, and half a window slanted with the moon shining through the west wind. In the dream, Handan still talks about dreams, and the morning bell suddenly comes.
Such a character, Xin Qiji, who was the late Ming Dynasty, was brought into the team by Hou Xuanyan in Suzhou, and he has always served as the deputy commander of the Shuizi Camp. He made great contributions to the battles in the south and north. This time, he won the Manraga, and Hou Xuanyan had already asked him to be named Duke of the State and gave him a reward recently.
Wu Yi naturally received the news and was in a very good mood. He led Hou Xuanyan to the palace. He entered the palace gate, walked around the main hall, and walked down the stone steps. In front of a stone gate, several navy soldiers held spears to protect him. Wu Yi waved his hand, and the soldier turned around and pushed the heavy stone gate open.
Hou Xuanyan's personal soldiers stepped forward, lit the torch in front of the door, and after entering, golden light shone.
Hou Xuanyan, who was used to seeing the wealthy wealthy, leaps his eyelids and then returns to normal. He smiled and said, "Is this the small treasury of the Manraka royal family?"
Wu Yi smiled and nodded, saying, "Yes, the officials have counted it, there are 15 million taels of silver and 8 million taels of gold."
Hou Xuanyan was obviously stunned and asked, "Why are there so many?"
"Hehe, not only the Manlacian royal family, but also the Franchis robbed from various places. The officials have already found out that the Franchis used this place as a transfer station. Later, after being driven away by the Dutch, the Franchis plundered the gold and silver that the Franchis plundered elsewhere was not taken away. Later, the Manlacian royal family secretly discovered it, but did not choose to tell the Red Haired Man, but instead hid it here for themselves. These people hid so much money, and did not dare to spend it under the eyes of the Red Haired Man, so they had to pile it up here." Wu Yi smiled very happily. These people were plotting, but they did not expect to become the spoils of the navy in the end.
"Haha, then we have to thank these little kings. By the way, are all members of the Manlacan royal family killed?" Hou Xuanyan stepped forward and picked up a string of jewelry, with a distinct Arabic style. It seemed to be plundered from West Asia. Since the last time he sent a string of big white pearls, Hou Xuanyan accidentally discovered the magical use and often stuffed it into other people's places, Hou Xuanyan has developed a strong interest in jewelry. The bright pearls are dotted with a red plum in the snow, full of visual tension.
Hou Xuanyan looked around with a pair of thief eyes, picked up a few interesting ones and stuffed them into his arms, preparing to go back as a gift.
Wu Yi said, "We are all locked up in prison. These people have a very stubborn temper. After our troops landed, they still wanted to resist stubbornly and were killed by the Japanese soldiers. Fortunately, the officials stopped it in time, otherwise they would have killed all the royal family."
When Hou Xuanyan came, he had heard the war report. He knew that the Japanese soldiers were brave in fighting and made great contributions. He chuckled and said, "This is how these Japanese people are. They bully the weak, and they are vicious when they are used. If they are used well, they are a sharp blade. I am going to let Tokugawa Ie-Kuang this time to fight North Korea. They have a good deal against the Koreans. So this time we should reward the Japanese soldiers and let them know that there is a benefit to follow us."
The Japanese believe in Buddhism and advocate Confucianism, and are influenced by Han culture everywhere. Since the navy forced open the gates of Japan, more and more Han winds have blown on the island. The upper-level daimyos are art-like and clinging to Han winds has long been a trend. In this atmosphere, following the footsteps of the Ming Dynasty and sending troops everywhere to attack other countries has become a thing they are proud of in Japan.
Therefore, it was very easy for Hou Xuanyan to ask them to send troops. All Japan hoped to follow the Ming army to conquer the Ming army again. But this time, Hou Xuanyan wanted them to take the lead because the troops under his command were already stretched, and the expansion of the territory required a large number of troops. Although the quagmire of North Korea is not strong, their nationality determines that this is a mess and is suitable for the Japanese to kill them.
After Wu Yi brought Hou Xuan to perform, soldiers had already begun to transport property. In addition to rewarding the three armies, the remaining money was transported back to China in boxes.
The palace hall was filled with exotic wine and dishes. Hou Xuanyan took a look and felt a little fucked. He rubbed his nose and said, "Is there a chef in the army?"
Wu Yi said, "Is the prince not used to these things?"
"Let our chef buy some wine and food casually, how can we eat these things?"
Wu Yi smiled, and the young general next to him had already run out. Taking advantage of this time, Hou Xuanyan continued to say, "Prespect the Manraka royal family and let me interrogate it."
After a while, the personal soldiers came up with a group of short men with luxurious clothes, although they were a little dirty.
Hou Xuanyan looked carefully and found that there were men and women, probably the king, queen, prince, princess, etc., and he suddenly lost any interest at first glance. These princesses had a slightly dark complexion and looked ordinary. Not to mention that they were incomparable to the level of the beauties in their house, even the maids were a hundred times more elegant than theirs.
The leader was pressed to the ground. To Hou Xuanyan's surprise, this guy was actually very strong and glared at him with his neck and his eyebrows straight.
"robber!"
"thief!"
"A bunch of thieves!"
Although the attitude of the Manlacan royal family was strong, they had too few words, and they were just those words back and forth, and Hou Xuanyan couldn't understand them.
Hou Xuanyan asked, "Bailimisula personally went to the Ming Dynasty to pay tribute. Emperor Yongle officially appointed Bailimisula as the king of Manraka and gave him an edict and a seal. He promised that his descendants would always be the king of Manraka, and the Malaga will always be a vassal state of the Ming Dynasty. Do you traitors kill them all, are you despising me? "
There was a common knowledge of translator and after translating Hou Xuanyan's words, the monkeys' attitude became softer, but one of the princes kept scolding.
Hou Xuanyan frowned, knocked the index finger on the table, and the personal soldiers stepped forward and lifted the swearing prince like a chicken, and pulled it out of the hall. After a while, the screams and scolding stopped abruptly. The personal soldiers came in and stood up while rubbing the blood of the blade.
This move came immediately and he did not dare to swear again. Hou Xuanyan laughed and said, "I thought I was a backbone figure. It turned out that I thought I would not dare to kill you. Let me tell you that the 80 vassal states of the Ming Dynasty were all our people's country. As long as it did not commit a sin that was unforgivable, outsiders could not rebel arbitrarily."
Hou Xuan's speech was reasonable and confident. Although he occupied other people's palaces, prepared to eat on other people's tables, and had just killed their son, he looked very righteous. Hou Xuanyan did have a clear conscience. At this time, the indigenous people of the small South China country had a very serious repulsive attitude. In Luzon, a large-scale massacre of Han people broke out. The court of the Ming Dynasty at that time did not care about it and did not impose sanctions at all, which led to the intensification of these people. Especially the king of the Malacca on earth, they were founded by the Islamic religion and acted a little too aggressively.
And as Hou Xuanyan said, the more than 80 vassal states of the Ming Dynasty were nominally enfeoffed and protected by the Ming Dynasty. If the monarch was too ridiculous, he had to report to the Ming Dynasty's court first and only then could he rebel after being recognized by the Ming Dynasty. The so-called sect leader country is so domineering and majestic.
Before the Manlacca, the royal family had always used their relationship with the Ming Dynasty as their life-saving talisman. Unfortunately, after the Tumu Fort, the Tatars restrained too much energy, and the Ming Dynasty was no longer able to estimate these southern vassal states. There were even more than 20, and they had long stopped paying tribute. Later, after the rise of Jiannu in Manchu, the number of vassal states that paid tribute on time collapsed in an avalanche. Even in later history, there was a kidnapping incident in which the Burmese king held Emperor Ming hostage and threatened Li Dingguo to ask for money and food.
The betrayal of these vassal states has now become the best reason for Hou Xuan to act. When this banner is up, no matter who fights, it is reasonable. In addition, Hou Xuan's battles after the Northern Expedition have made the court and the people make a fortune, and he has long since been criticized for his reputation. From temples to markets, whether it is scholars, farmers, industry and commerce, or civil servants, they are all keen on war. This trend is particularly prevalent in Jiangnan. Although Jingbei in the north is also beneficial, it is a century-old plan and needs to be slowly achieved. However, the maritime merchants in Jiangnan made money from the preparations before the war began.
Seeing these so-called royal debates, Hou Xuanyan said speechlessly, "Found someone from the people, who is the descendant of Bailimisula, and establishes the king of Malaga, and stipulates that the king must not walk out of that palace. On other buildings in the palace, a governor's office will be established. After I go back, I will appoint a governor of the South China Sea to manage the things here with all my might."
At this time, the chefs in the army came in with the prepared food. Wu Yi pointed to the royal members on the ground and asked, "What should these people do?"
Hou Xuanyan couldn't wait to pick up the chopsticks. His stomach was already hungry. He said, "These sinners killed the descendants of the king whom Emperor Yongle canonized. They were a group of rebels, and they were about to be executed."
