Wan Shihe is the panacea of the DPRK, the lubricant, and a key figure in reconciling conflicts. Whether it is Zhu Yijun, Zhang Juzheng, Wang Chonggu, or the court officials, they all recognize Wan Shihe's ability. Wan Shihe The most conspicuous ability is to sprinkle water to cleanse the ground and make amends for what His Majesty has done.
His Majesty said: This year, the large sailing ship from the West cannot arrive at the port.
The reason why the worsted woolen plate was completely smashed was not entirely because Zhu Yijun had a large inventory and kept smashing the plate, but because the large Taixi ship could not arrive at the port as scheduled, and the inflow of silver slowed down, and the Ming Dynasty The silver barrier situation in developed areas will be relieved, and the silver in developed areas will decrease. Then, under the fear that worsted wool, a substitute currency for silver, will inevitably depreciate, the two forces will work together to completely destroy it.
The purpose of smashing the market is to prevent the risks of the worsted woolen business from being transferred to the people. The luxury households are very good at taking advantage of the people's self-respect.
Silk currency is still too dangerous. By definition, silk currency is a complete financial currency, weakly related to the industrial foundation, and closely related to the speed of silver inflow and the liquidity of silver.
Ship tickets and silk coins are completely different things. Ship tickets are related to the Ming Dynasty's policy of opening up the sea and the prosperity of the Ming Dynasty's maritime trade, and have little to do with the circulation of silver. They are not a tulip scam in which silk coins are completely financial and spread flowers by beating drums.
The difference between the two, specifically: ship tickets can pay dividends, while silk coins have no such attribute at all;
The issuance of ship tickets is limited by the production capacity of the Ming Dynasty's shipbuilding industry, and the worsted woolen cloth is mainly limited by the abundance of water and grass in the grassland;
The risk of ship tickets comes from the safety of Ming ships, which determines the probability of the ship returning, while the risk of silk coins mainly comes from the banker's operation;
The main purpose of ship tickets is to inject a steady stream of funds for Nanya to open the sea, while the worsted woolen business is more like a gambling house opened to amass profits;
The market for ship ticket trading is much larger than the market for silk currency trading;
The silk coin business was a toy for the emperor alone. It could be said to be a pilot project for ship tickets, accumulating experience in ticket transactions. As for the transaction of ship tickets, from the system design, Zhu Yijun had to work with Yuan Fu, Ci Fu, Da Sima and others in detail. It is a great plan for the country to agree and then slowly implement it.
Wan Shihe could neither let His Majesty's words fall to the ground, nor could he let Tutor Yuanfu's words fall to the ground. These are authoritarian figures, and the authority of authoritarian figures does not allow any challenge.
Imperialism is essentially the highest expression of authoritarian authority.
Wan Shihe's angle was very strange. He did not deny the news that the Thai-Chinese sailing ship was coming to the port, and then announced that the news was good news!
This kind of ground-washing method is simply shameless, completely confusing right and wrong, and calling a deer a horse. But Wan Shihe's words were unanimously recognized by Zheshe households. This is indeed good news, and it is great news!
Because this means that the imperial power is powerless in matters of maritime trade, and it means that the Ming Emperor cannot control the value of ship tickets as he pleases.
After the silk coin business, the owner behind Yanxing Tower released nearly 20,000 pieces of worsted wool in one day, directly smashing through the plates. This terrifying trading ability made Zheshe households doubt the value of ship tickets. There are still some doubts, because this represents the terrible control of the yamen in ticket transactions, and this control affects the enthusiasm of the market.
But as Wan Shihe revealed the essence of the matter, this terrible news turned into good news. Ship tickets increased again, and the occasional scattered tickets were sold out.
Quietly, the interests of the wealthy households in Beizhili, Shanxi, Shandong and other places are deeply tied to the opening of the sea and the national destiny of the Ming Dynasty. Only when the Ming Dynasty prospers can they continue to make money, and when the Ming Dynasty dies, then Let's all finish playing together.
Since Wang Chonggu proposed the ship ticket transaction, he has repeatedly emphasized that everyone should be tied to the same boat.
Is His Majesty really powerless in this matter?
Zhang Juzheng, the Grand Tutor of Yuanfu, said: sink it! Where the Ming Dynasty is within reach, His Majesty is the only sky for the Ming Dynasty and the supreme will! Your Majesty said that if you can't reach the port, you can't let the big sailing ship arrive at the port.
His Majesty's will is above all else.
In a feudal imperial country where the system design revolves around the word emperor, an authoritarian emperor has supreme power after mastering violence.
Violence is gunpowder, steel, silver coins, etiquette, and people's hearts. In the eyes of different people, these weights are different. In Zhu Yijun's eyes, these weights are exactly the same and they are all very important.
Zhu Yijun still has strong trading ability in the ship ticket business. He can even over-issue futures ship tickets and completely muddy the waters.
No system is perfect. When discussing the establishment of a ship ticket trading house in a closed meeting at the Quanchu Guild Hall, Zhu Yijun thought that a three-masted plywood ship worth 50,000 silver could be broken into 10,000 parts, which would be enough to open the sea. Dividends can allow most people to get a share of the pie, and the Ming Dynasty people who have a little extra money can drink some soup from the five-tael ship tickets.
The ideas are rich and the reality is skinny.
But in the end, Zhang Juzheng persuaded him to settle for a thousand copies, because it involved implementation difficulties. Ming Dynasty did not have enough manpower to manage such a large scale of tickets. Similarly, five taels of silver may be accumulated by an ordinary family for several years. Once this When the boat capsizes, it means years of hard work have been wasted.
At any time and in any era, the people's ability to resist risks is almost zero. They cannot withstand any risks. Even if they are a little lazy in the autumn and do not plow the fields deeply or turn locust eggs to the surface, If the cold freezes the locust eggs to death, the next year's harvest may fail.
The opening of the sea in the Ming Dynasty is still on the road of exploration. Even the Malacca Strait, the gateway to the Wanli Seawall, is firmly controlled by the Hongmao Fan. This also leads to another problem. In any era, the people will not be able to reap the dividends of development. , when the exploration is completed, that is when the dividends from opening the sea are almost exhausted, and the high-quality assets are completely controlled by the Zhashe households, just like the fertile land of the Ming Dynasty is in the hands of the Jin gentry.
When it prospers, the people suffer; when it dies, the people suffer.
The Ming Emperor and the Ming Dynasty are not heaven. Even if they are the emperor, father, country, and master, they cannot evenly distribute the emperor's grace to everyone, guarantee the basic order of society, ensure the survival of the political power, and ensure the correct use of violence. , ensuring the basic safety of people's lives and property, and being able to ensure relative fairness. This reality is the criterion for the court's practice.
A world of great harmony, a world of great truth, where everyone is virtuous, respects the elderly, loves the young, is uneven everywhere, and has no one without food and warmth. This is an utopia and a metaphysical pursuit.
On the fourth day of June in the seventh year of Wanli, the news that the Taixi sailing ship arrived at the port as scheduled reached the capital. The new captain had already boarded the hydrofoil sailing ship and was on his way to Beijing.
Zhu Yijun came to the Wenhua Hall as always, and the imperial gate listened to the government. King Lu Zhu Yijun followed his Majesty to the Wenhua Hall with a long yawn. Zhu Yijun disliked the imperial gate to listen to the government more and more, and he hated it from the bottom of his heart.
Even though he had to come due to the majesty of the imperial brother, he couldn't express it too much, but he was already quite tired of it.
Endless meetings, endless things to do, always uneven distribution of benefits, and never-ending busyness. Zhu Yixuan can only admire that the emperor brother can persevere until now! Brother is a fierce man!
In Zhu Yijun's view, the emperor's brother's life was dull, boring, boring, and not exciting. Zhu Yijun also agreed with his younger brother's view.
Zhu Yijun was happiest every day when he paraded the military horses at Peking University Camp. At this time, he could feel the wind of freedom whistling around him.
In the eyes of Emperor Zhu Yijun of the Ming Dynasty, the emperor's throne was a golden toilet with countless chains that firmly tied the emperor to it. These chains were etiquette, conflicts of interests that could not be seen at all, and the interests of the people of the Ming Dynasty. Expectations, the mission given to him by history, etc. are shackles and also power.
Zhu Yijun disliked the palace very much. After Wang Chonggu Ding Jian built the central axis of the palace, Zhu Yijun lived in Qianqing Palace for one day. This was not because Zhu Yijun did not trust Wang Chonggu Ding Jian, but because he did not like this kind of restriction.
The high wall of the palace is a cage.
Before the court meeting began, Zhu Yijun took out a memorial, picked up the ink pen and ink, stamped the big seal, looked around the courtiers, and then said in an extremely serious tone: "The Luzon Governor's Office asked the court about the Strait of Malacca attitude, I have only one attitude! Take the Strait of Malacca at all costs, which is the gateway of the Ming Dynasty on the sea. The Strait of Malacca is in the hands of the Yi Di, and the seawall of thousands of miles will not be peaceful. "
"Everyone, imagine that Jiayuguan is in the hands of Yi Di."
Tan Lun immediately said loudly: "There will never be peace in the Ming Dynasty!"
Tan Lun was a radical, so he refused to fight against the Japanese because he was afraid of death? Don't you go out and attack outside the fortress because you're afraid of killing people? The living space of everyone in the Ming Dynasty needs the sword of the Ming Dynasty to open up and protect it.
Wang Guoguang, the assistant minister and the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, exhaled and said with a hint of helplessness: "The weather has changed, it is getting colder and colder. The grain harvests in Shaanxi, Gansu and Ningxia have been poor year after year, and the grain in North Zhili is also declining. It turns out that it is just an impact. The cold wave in the grassland seems to be gradually eroding the Ming Dynasty. Last winter, it snowed in Guangzhou, froze in Hangzhou, and people froze to death in Yingtian Mansion. If the court cannot get food, the Ming Dynasty will not be far away."
The shortage of food in the Ming Dynasty is the current situation of the Ming Dynasty. The contradiction between man and land is the fundamental contradiction of the Ming Dynasty. This is the fundamental contradiction that has existed since the Wanli New Deal. The rich country and the strong army have been focusing on clearing the land and returning the land.
How serious is the climate impact of small glaciers? The West Lake in Hangzhou froze and it snowed in Guangzhou.
The snow in the south is different from the snow in the north. The snow in the north can really freeze people to death, while people can also freeze to death in Nanya Yingtian Mansion and the land of Longxing in the Ming Dynasty. This is the horror of the small glacier climate. The most terrifying thing What's more, the food harvest is bad.
Where is the granary? At Wanli Seawall.
Silver cannot be eaten or drunk. Without silver, there is at most a money shortage. The Ming Dynasty's economy has been in continuous collapse for more than two hundred years. Since the Hongwu period, the Ming Dynasty has always been in a state of money shortage. After the collapse of Baoqian, the court's focus on money In fact, things have already been completely ruined.
But without food, there will be famine. When famine occurs, people will migrate, and all kinds of contradictions will explode like fire cooking oil. The hungry people will lose all their shackles, and then overthrow the incompetent Ming Dynasty. imperial court.
After the Ministry of War and the Ministry of Household Affairs expressed their stance, His Majesty's arbitrary actions became the common result of the court discussion, because the Ministry of Personnel and the Ministry of Rites of the Ming Dynasty unconditionally supported all of His Majesty's decisions. Wan Shihe always fell in whichever way the wind blew. Attitude.
"Fight! If you don't spend money on armaments, how can you spend it on war reparations? Fight!" Wan Shihe, the Minister of Personnel, made a statement, which did not go beyond everyone's expectations.
Wan Shihe always believed in a saying, and he always said it in the emperor's ears: Yi Di are not human beings, but have wolf-like faces and animal hearts. They are afraid of power but not ethical. They will not hurt them if they are beaten, and they will not dare to stretch out their hands if they are afraid of being beaten. , they will not talk well, Wan Shihe thinks so, says this, and does this. The brainwashing Wan Shihe has repeatedly said over the years is very successful, and His Majesty also agrees with this sentence very much.
As a courtier born in Qiongzhou, Hai Rui fully supported the capture of the Strait of Malacca, the gateway to the Wanli Seawall. These red-haired bandits, Japanese pirates, and the desperate desperadoes of the Ming Dynasty formed a pirate bandit that harassed the long coastline of the Ming Dynasty. , Qiongzhou, Hainan, was the first to be affected.
Without the security of Wanli Seawall, there would be no security for Qiongzhou. As an important minister of the imperial court, he agreed with the General Constitution of the Metropolitan Procuratorate with his left hand. As a Hainanese, he agreed with his right hand. In both public and private matters, Hai Rui agreed.
"At any cost, no matter how long, five or ten years, we must capture the Strait of Malacca!" Zhu Yijun saw that the court officials did not object to major decisions and made the final decision.
"Your Majesty is wise." Zhang Juzheng led the ministers in singing a hymn.
After Zhang Juzheng sat firmly, he spoke: "Your Majesty, Governor Yin said, I think it is very good. It is not easy to train the navy of our Ming Dynasty, and the number is small. These natives can be put to good use. They are just right and can be replaced. people."
Zhang Juzheng agreed with Yin Zhengmao's proposition that the Ming Dynasty would never stop attacking until all the local savages and monkeys were killed.
Zhang Juzheng is bound to retaliate and is ruthless. The court officials of the Ming Dynasty have long seen Zhang Juzheng's methods. Yuanfu Gao Gong, Ministry of Personnel Minister Yang Bo, and Governor Jingying Military Affairs Wang Chonggu stacked up against each other. None of them could beat Zhang Juzheng, but Today, the court officials discovered that Zhang Juzheng was really cruel!
Another person, there are only four words, but it is a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood.
The flesh-and-blood mill of the Strait of Malacca is destined to eat humans. Yin Zhengmao wanted this meat grinder to eat savages in order to reduce the losses of the Ming Navy. But Zhang Juzheng thought further. He wanted to change the species and send men to the meat grinder. Hanged, if that woman wants to find a husband, she can only find a Han from the Ming Dynasty. Those thousands of miles of seawalls are all Han.
Only then could the Wanli Seawall truly become the back garden of the Ming Dynasty.
The courtiers looked a little surprised. The Taifu was not so violent before, so why is he so vicious now?
"Some sins are destined to be carried by someone, so let me do it." Zhang Juzheng took out a blank floating ticket and wrote what he just said.
Zhu Yijun received the floating ticket from Zhang Juzheng, thought about it and said, "It doesn't matter. If you die, no one will mention it in the future."
The courtiers looked at the emperor on the platform with horrified eyes. It was unclear whether the Ming Emperor was taught like this by his tutor, or whether the tutor was influenced by the emperor and became like this. This was something that could not be explained. Conjugate master and apprentice.
Zhang Juzheng will not receive bad reviews. The Strait of Malacca, a strategic location, will definitely solve local ethnic conflicts perfectly.
Gao Qiyu translated the books bought by Taixi at the Royal Academy of Geology. Among them was a book published in Italy in the 11th year of Jiajing, called "The Prince", which was written by the thinker Niccolò Machiavelli. In this book, Niekro said: Colonization in the Roman era was to burn the local area into a wasteland, wait until everyone was hungry, kill the men, and then immigrate there, which became the territory of Rome.
The colonization of the West was indeed like this.
Zhu Yijun thinks this opportunity is good. He is such a person. He does not believe in the wisdom of future generations, but only believes in himself.
In fact, there were two heroes in the Ming Dynasty, the Gao Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang and the Wen Emperor Zhu Di. Before Zhu Yuanzhang died, he killed more than half of the court in order to let his grandson Zhu Yunwen succeed. Zhu Yunwen lost the country and the country in a way that was almost In a shameful way, he ended up with his whereabouts unknown; Zhu Di made six expeditions to the West and five expeditions to the grasslands. After his death, he continued one more voyage and then stopped. I won’t go to the Beijing camp to parade the troops and horses.
Zhu Yijun really didn't believe in the wisdom of future generations. He couldn't believe it. Qin Shihuang still thought about it for thousands of generations, but it was passed down to the second generation and disappeared. How could Zhu Yijun believe in the wisdom of future generations?
He has done too many evil things. Just the matter of annihilating the Confucius family in Yanzhou is worthy of being scolded by readers for generations. Zhu Yijun's grave is destined to be filled with garbage. The wind of history cannot blow away these things. Trash and even his grave may be dug up and cremated.
Zhu Yijun, whose grave was destined to be filled with garbage, no longer cared about the amount of garbage on his grave. It was just a mountain of garbage anyway.
Zhu Yijun wrote his words on the floating ticket, and they must be wiped out without leaving any more.
The discussions in the Ming Dynasty were still going on, but Feng Bao gave the Zhongshu Sheren a cold look. If the two Zhongshu Sheren who recorded daily notes dared to record a single word of Zhang Juzheng and His Majesty's words, Feng Bao would definitely It will make them see how dangerous the world is.
Feng Bao has never been a kind-hearted person. How many people have been thrown into a dry well by him. If these two Zhongshushe people are not sensible, he can destroy that page. As for these two people, they will naturally be handed over to Zhang Juzheng Just dispose of it.
Zhang Hong simply grabbed the hand of Zhongshu Sheren. If it is not recorded, it will not exist, which will save everyone from embarrassment.
No one pays attention to how those Tufan savages and monkeys disappeared.
The Ming Dynasty did this without any psychological pressure. For example, in the first year of Wanli, Du Zhangman's victory was reported to the capital. His Majesty read out the news at the Meridian Gate and generously rewarded Du Zhangman, the Bo people. Only the Xuanxuan remained on the cliff. The coffins proved their existence.
No one in Duzhang Man stood up to accuse Ming of his atrocities.
Zhu Yiliu didn't close his yawning mouth, his scalp was numb, and he stared blankly at Zhu Yijun and Zhang Juzheng. He felt that his dandy behavior was just a kid's nonsense, he was such a cruel person!
Only by staying away from the court can you live a prosperous life.
Zhu Yili was a little frightened. In the education he received, shouldn't Confucian scholars be gentle and elegant? Does this have anything to do with being gentle?
Deng Zilong is right, His Majesty will definitely fight. Loving soldiers as sons and being kind but not in command of soldiers are never contradictory antonyms.
Zhang Juzheng took out a memorandum and said: "The special envoy of Taixi, Li Yashi, reported to the minister of Honglu Temple that we should agree on five-masted transoceanic ships before they are delivered this year. It is expected that twelve ships will be delivered this time."
"We have to pay more. If we don't increase the money, our big customer Shah Maimaiti will not say anything, but he will definitely be unhappy in his heart. Why, they are inferior to others in the Mughal Kingdom? Shah Maimaiti will not throw it away if he is unhappy." Money bag." After hearing this, Zhu Yijun immediately said: "If you don't pay more, let Felipe II line up. If he doesn't accept it, call him."
Shah Maimaiti liked to throw money bags around and invite people to drink tea. More five-masted ocean-going ships appeared in the Western Ocean (Indian Ocean), which could effectively involve the fleets of the Goa Governor's Palace and the Diu Governor's Palace. This was very important for the Ming Dynasty to capture The Strait of Malacca is extremely advantageous, and Shah Maimaiti's extra money was very exciting. In addition to adding more money, Shah Maimaiti even made the decision. Twenty thousand war horses were given away for free. The main thing was a rich man!
His majesty's greedy face is really not as generous and generous as Shah Maimaiti's, and it somewhat damages the majesty of the heavenly kingdom. It is really degrading for a supreme emperor to worry about scattered silver.
Naihe, Naihe.
There are so many mouths waiting to eat in the Ming Dynasty. Zhu Yijun can only do this. The Ming Dynasty has its own national conditions.
You Felipe II want to lift the boat? I didn’t say I wouldn’t let you lift the boat. If you don’t add configurations or money, how can there be any reason for you to lift the boat?
"The reason why Felipe II took such a risk is that the twelve five-masted ships that Antonio brought to the West caused a lot of trouble to Felipe II. He hoped to get more five-masted ships. The foreign ship, Antonio, is quite capable of fighting." Zhang Juzheng handed the memorial to Feng Bao, and Feng Bao sent it to the platform.
The battle for the Portuguese throne between Antonio and Felipe II has begun. This time, Antonio's style of play is quite English-like, acting as a pirate.
Antonio relied on his twelve five-masted transoceanic ships, plus thirty-five Galese warships, and a number of pirate ships, to constantly harass Spanish merchant ships in the Strait of Gibraltar. The war situation in the Netherlands became increasingly anxious, and the resistance The power is steadily increasing. Felipe II, who was already troubled by the English, is now being harassed by Antonio's fleet.
The days are hopeless!
Antonio led the pirates of Liberty City to achieve several brilliant results in succession.
Felipe II's Armada finally took action, and then Antonio's almost rogue style of play proved that the Armada was a fallacy. Antonio relied on his own ships to travel in all directions, and relied on himself to Their ships were big, fast, and had many guns, but they still refused to fight head-on. They beat Felipe II's invincible fleet so hard that they could no longer bear the losses and had no choice but to return.
"This guy can do it. He is worthy of the investment I gave him!" Zhu Yijun read the report from Taixi's special envoy Ligas and was surprised by Antonio's combat power. Antonio did not rely on the civilians who supported him the most, but chose another path. When English.
Taixi's special envoy Li Yashi did not betray his king. He told Ming Dynasty all this because Ming Dynasty would definitely know this. Xu Jie's eldest son Xu Fan, as the permanent envoy to Taixi, would definitely bring this news back to Ming Dynasty. Sooner or later, Ming Dynasty would know this. Everyone will know.
The five-masted ocean-going ship changed the pattern of naval warfare much more than Zhu Yijun imagined.
After Zhu Yijun read the report, he immediately laughed. As much as the Ming Dynasty hated the Japanese pirates, the French, Germans, Portuguese and Spanish in Europe also hated the English.
"This time the Taisei galleon arrived at the port, there was a special envoy on it, Antonio's first mate Marcus. This first mate came on behalf of Antonio, the heir to the Portuguese king, not the captain Antonio." Zhang Juzheng said with a strange expression. : "Here is a memorial from Antonio."
"Memorial?" Zhu Yijun was stunned and took the memorial. It was indeed a memorial. It was a memorial to the emperor from the officials of the Ming Dynasty. Antonio claimed to be a minister in the memorial. This was not the first time. Antonio accepted the memorial from the Ming Dynasty in the second year of Wanli. After the emperor's investment, he has been claiming to be a minister.
The memorial was written by Antonio in his poor Chinese. It was really poor. If Zhang Juzheng, the master of calligraphy appraisal, had not annotated it, Zhu Yijun could hardly read what this guy wrote. The handwriting was too ugly.
The document of the memorial was provided by Xu Fan, the permanent envoy to the West, Xu Fan, who served as Antonio's staff.
"That's no wonder." Zhu Yijun has seen too many vicious scholars in the Ming Dynasty. Xu Fan is also a scholar. He works as an adviser to Antonio. Antonio obeys the advice obediently, as long as Felipe II wins the Portuguese throne, the cost is greater than the benefit. , Felipe II was about to weigh the pros and cons. It was clear that this bad idea came from Xu Fan.
Felipe II's envoys came to pick up the ship.
Marcus, Antonio's envoy, came to beg for canonization.
Antonio hoped that the Ming Emperor could continue to support him. The support of force was enough. He used an account that His Majesty would personally collect to obtain twelve five-masted ocean-going ships. These twelve five-masted ocean-going ships could Beat the Invincible Fleet.
Antonio hopes to be canonized by His Majesty.
Antonio judged that the Holy See controlled by Felipe II would never confer him a title, so he might as well directly surrender to the East and become a vassal of His Majesty, and be canonized as king by His Majesty. His Majesty is the emperor, and it is legal for the emperor to confer a title on him. regime.
And this kind of canonization will inevitably bring a privilege, that is, the qualification to trade with the Ming Dynasty.
To this day, because Portugal bribed local officials in Guangzhou to privately occupy Haocheng, Ming Dynasty still imposes punitive tariffs on Portugal. This punitive tariff is as high as 30%. When Antonio was canonized, this punishment naturally ended. Portuguese merchant ships can continue to come to Daming for normal trade.
The price of fate's gift had already been marked in secret. Antonio begged the Emperor of Ming Dynasty for his favor, and he didn't just lick his face and forcefully ask for it. Antonio knew His Majesty's character, and he would not let go of the rabbit before he saw it.
The Ming Dynasty granted him legal authority. He donated all the castles and plantations in the Straits of Malacca. What he gave was the legal authority. This was a deal, a deal that was good for both parties. The specific harvest required the navy of the Ming Dynasty to personally conquer. There has always been a sea battle. In this way, only those with big fists can gain benefits.
"Don't you feel bad for selling me? You just sold it when Antonio said it would be sold?" Zhu Yijun looked at Antonio's memorial and said in amazement.
Zhang Juzheng thought for a moment and said: "Antonio is a smart man. Antonio, who can defeat the sea, storms, sea beasts, and natives, is also a brave man. Everyone knows the Ming Dynasty's ambitions for thousands of miles of seawalls. The Strait of Malacca is so close to the Ming Dynasty." , so far away from Hong Maofan’s homeland, a place destined to be lost, it is natural for Antonio to take it out in exchange for some benefits.”
Antonio, who was smart, brave and caring for the common people, finally became qualified to protect the common people who were looking forward to his protection after climbing onto Ming's lap.
The Ming Dynasty often did this kind of thing. Those barbarians did not live in the grasslands, plateaus, and hundreds of thousands of mountains voluntarily. Please give me a monthly ticket, wow! ! ! ! ! ! !
