Chongzhen and I became partners

Chapter 622 Misunderstanding
"But you don't have to worry, it will take at least two years for Jianlu and Wa to use their troops against me!" Emperor Chongzhen said without fear, "At that time, the problem in the southwest will be resolved, and the army will be able to fight against me!" Being able to be transferred to Liaodong completely wiped out Jianlu, and by the way, also wiped out the wolfish and ambitious Wa country!"

After a pause, he continued: "I told the news to Zhuqing, just to let Zhuqing know that you should be prepared for danger in times of peace, and not slack off because of the peace of the world. The affairs of each yamen must be done well. The application of Gewuxue , It can also improve our Ming's combat power, and even crush them. I told you before that Da Ming not only wants to rejuvenate, but also wants to increase Vega overseas!"

Seeing that Emperor Chongzhen was so confident, He Fengsheng and others remembered what he said before, and also remembered that Emperor Taizu was standing behind the current emperor, as if there was really nothing to worry about.

Thinking of this, the confidence of a group of people has recovered a lot.

However, Ni Yuanlu, Minister of the Household Department, was still a little worried, so he said: "Your Majesty, I wonder how much the war will cost in two years' time?"

To be honest, he was too worried.

In the previous Wanli period, too much money was spent just to fight against the Japanese and aid the dynasty.Now not only do we want to destroy Jianlu, but we also want to destroy the Japanese people in North Korea, and even His Majesty wants to send troops to the Japanese country to destroy the Japanese country. The money should definitely be astronomical.

When Emperor Chongzhen heard this, he laughed immediately, and then replied: "Ni Qing can't just see that wars cost money, but also that wars can actually make money!"

Hearing this, Ni Yuanlu couldn't help being stunned, can you still make money by fighting?It's the first time I've heard of it!
The others were similar, and each of them was a little puzzled.In their conception, fighting is a job that costs money!

When Emperor Chongzhen saw them, he said to them: "Isn't the Railway Department saying that there are not many captives available? There are still miners from the Ministry of Industry, is there not enough manpower? It just so happens that the Jian captives can be used to build roads. The Japanese are short and digging The mine is really suitable."

After a pause, he continued without waiting for his subordinates to ask questions, "I know all the mines in Liaodong, North Korea, and Japan, and the money they mine back will definitely make up for the cost of the war."

"..." Upon hearing this, everyone was speechless.

In the past, no matter which emperor it was, it seemed impossible to use this method to get back the capital, right?Only with the guidance of the emperor Taizu who became a fairy, the current emperor can know the treasures buried underground.In this way, it seems that there will really be no war at a loss!

Not only in Liaodong and North Korea, but also in other places, it seems that this can be done!

In other words, in the future, Daming will continue to expand its borders and lands, and they will all be similar?As long as you can win, you won't lose money, and you can even keep fighting?
Thinking of this, He Fengsheng and the others couldn't help but get excited.

If the prospect of the length of the earth described by Emperor Chongzhen in the past seemed to be just a picture, in their eyes now, this is not just a picture, but flour, and the picture has come true Feasibility!

And in this situation, only the emperor Taizu standing behind the current emperor can have such a condition that he will not lose money!

Seeing the stunned looks of the courtiers below, Emperor Chongzhen couldn't help revealing a little more: "The population of the Wa country is now more than [-] million, and they have made the best of them. After landing in North Korea, I will send the navy to intercept them. It is possible for them to return to the Wa country, and North Korea is unlikely to gain anything immediately. If their supplies are cut off, the battle will be much easier. As long as all the Japanese troops they sent to North Korea are eliminated, it will be easier to go back and conquer the Wa country. "

"..." Everyone in Wenhua Hall was speechless when they heard this.

Co-authored that the more troops Japan sent, the better it would be for Daming?
The officials present were all the highest ranking officials of the Ming Dynasty, so they naturally knew about Song Yingxing's work at the Tianjin Shipyard.To say that the Ming Navy has no opponents, they don't need actual combat experience, just by looking at the comparison between iron armor and wooden boats, they can know the outcome.

In other words, it is absolutely possible for the Ming Navy to cut off the sea retreat of the Korean Japanese army.That is to say, the countermeasures mentioned by the emperor just now should be effective.

It turned out that the emperor had already prepared countermeasures, so he didn't panic at all!

What else can I say?
"Your Majesty is holy!" Shouts rang out in unison in the Wenhua Hall.

That's it, the Emperor Chongzhen informed these senior officials of the Ming Dynasty about the future war in Liaodong. At the end of the first five-year plan, the focus of work will start on the second five-year plan, which is to restore Liaodong, the occupation of North Korea, and even the destruction of Japan were prepared.

..............................

At the same time, far away in Nanyang, there are three lucky boats, which are slowly approaching a coastline.The people on the boat were all cheering.

Seeing a rather dark man, he was very inexperienced at first hearing, and also had a Fujian accent, and asked in surprise: "Is this the Ming dynasty?"

"Haha, it's early, how could this kind of place be our Daming's place!" A man next to him, although he also had a Fujian accent, was obviously proficient in Daming Mandarin, and answered him, " This is just an island near Luzon, we need to resupply here, and then return to Daming!"

Listening to the conversation between his subordinates and the Indians, Zheng Zhibao also had a smile on his face.

This time I traveled across the ocean, went to such a far place, and then came back, and there was no loss. I am really very lucky!
Of course, he knew very well in his heart that the reason for this was a great credit. It was the nautical chart given by the current emperor, which marked the direction of ocean currents, the islands along the way, etc., and even marked the approximate time period. , there will be fewer hurricanes.

Zheng Zhibao followed this nautical chart, and it was really smooth sailing, the emperor bless you!
Of course, there is also luck.Thinking this way in his heart, he silently added: Mazu bless you!

During the past few months of sailing at sea, the Indians on board performed well, taking care of the plants very hard, and probably lost about [-]% due to various reasons.But fortunately, there are a lot of each, basically, if there are no problems on the next voyage, it will be considered a full return!
Now that I have arrived in Nanyang, I am familiar with this place, so there should be no problem.After the Calapan replenishment, according to the emperor's original explanation, go directly to Qiongzhou to hand over the plants on the ship, and this errand will be completed!

Zheng Zhibao thought so, and the three blessing boats had already slowly approached the wharf of Calapan.

This Calapan belongs to the capital of Oriental Mindoro Province in the Philippines in later generations.It is located on the northeast coast of Mindoro Island, at the eastern end of the Green Island Strait.

In this era, Luzon was colonized by Spain, mainly in Luzon Island. Most of the nearby islands belonged to the indigenous people, but there were also Spaniards, mainly for tax collection, that is, protection fees and the like.

If it is going to Manila, Zheng Zhibao may be more cautious, because the Zheng family has no friendship with the Spaniards on Luzon Island.Every year when the Spaniards pass through the coast of Daming and return across the Pacific from the Wa country, they also have to pay protection fees to the Zheng family.

Now it is only replenished on the periphery of Luzon Island, so there is no need to worry about what will happen to the Spaniards.

Just as Zheng Zhibao thought, Fuchuan represents the ships of Ming Dynasty.And the Zheng Ziling flag flying on the flag indicated that this was the Zheng family's ship.

When the three blessing boats docked, the natives of Kalapan rushed over one after another.

Compared with those western barbarians, the merchants of Ming Dynasty are the most polite and will not rob them.

After docking, there is no need for Zheng Zhibao to negotiate. The men in charge of Nanyang will naturally negotiate with the natives here, maintain the ship, replenish water and food.

However, it is a little different from the past. This time, Zheng Zhibao returned from South America, and all the valuables on board were replaced with South American specialties, so it can only be used to keep accounts, and it is agreed that the natives here will be compensated later.

If it were someone else, they could only think it was a money grab.But although Zheng Zhilong was a pirate, he was more of a businessman. The rules he set for his subordinates were not like Xiyi's.The reputation of the Zheng family is there.

Although the natives of Calapan regretted not receiving the money, they did not complain after all.

In the end, after resting here for one night, the three ships of Zheng Zhibao set sail again the next day and continued towards Daming.

One thing that Zheng Zhibao didn't expect was that when he was resting on the shore, there happened to be a Spaniard in Calapan.

The Spaniard didn't show up, he just hid in the dark and watched.

Zheng's ships rarely appear in Nanyang.This suddenly appeared in Nanyang, which inevitably makes people think too much.

For example, the Zheng family is not satisfied with controlling the southeast coast of Daming, do they want to expand to Southeast Asia?If this expands to Southeast Asia, the place occupied by the Spaniards will bear the brunt of it!

Others might not think so.However, the Spaniards were colonists, and they naturally thought that other people would be like them.It is definitely not normal for the Zheng family's fleet to suddenly appear near Luzon.

So, after Zheng Zhibao's fleet left, the Spaniards couldn't stay any longer and hurried back to Manila.

The Spaniards have always had ghosts in their hearts, and they are very sensitive to Daming's attention.

Ming people who go to sea are generally very hardworking, in stark contrast to the local aborigines, and have brains. Therefore, after going overseas, they can quickly accumulate wealth and become rich among the local people.

The same is true for Luzon.As the rulers, the Spaniards were jealous. In the end, during the Wanli period, because of a misunderstanding, the Spaniards massacred the local Ming people and made a lot of money.

Although the misunderstanding was resolved later, Emperor Wanli did not care about Lu Song.However, the Spaniards tasted the sweetness and resorted to various means to attract Ming people, accumulate wealth, and then another massacre.
