Carrying AK into Ming Dynasty
Chapter 912 Descendants of the Han Family
Chapter 912 Descendants of the Han Family
In the third-floor cabin of the flagship Invincible, Liu Hongjian summoned the envoys of Wandan Kingdom.
It’s a bit of a stretch to say he’s an envoy. The person here is probably in his early 30s, and his clothes are not much better than that of a beggar from Ming Dynasty. If this person is an envoy of a country, then beggars from Ming Dynasty would dare to call themselves kings.
"Montel, a foreigner, pays homage to His Highness!" The envoy was searched by several groups of people outside the cabin, but he still knelt down in front of Liu Hongjian and saluted without anger.
"You speak Daming language?" Liu Hongjian was a little surprised. Upon closer inspection, the person in front of him seemed to be more like a Daming person, except that his complexion was a bit dark.
"My lord, my ancestors were from Zhangzhou, Fujian, and were plundered here by Japanese pirates." Montel seemed to have known that Liu Hongjian would ask this question, and said bluntly.
"Oh? Then why isn't your name a Chinese one?" Liu Hongjian asked again.
"Back to the prince, the ancestor of the villain was originally named Shen, but more than 100 years ago, the ancestors were rescued by the Wandan Kingdom. The King of Wandan not only pardoned the ancestors, but also changed the surname. The villain has been living in Nanyang all the time, so..."
"So you have forgotten your ancestors?" Liu Hongjian said with a smile.
"Your Majesty, please forgive me! As the old saying goes, a drop of water should be repaid by a fountain. The ancestor of a villain has received the favor of the Wandan Kingdom, so he can't just walk away and be despised by others."
Montel was terrified. He knew that the officials and lords of the Ming Dynasty were not easy to get along with, so he lowered his head and lay down on the ground to explain hastily.
In fact, this is not what he has in mind. In Daming, he is just a common man who can be bullied, but in Wandan country, his family has at least once been brilliant.
Even now that the Banten Kingdom has been destroyed by the Dutch colonists, his life is still better than most of the natives.
The so-called homeland can only make people who live in more misery remember bitterness and sweetness, but it is difficult for people who live happily to look back on the miserable past.
"Hehe, I'm just talking casually about why you reacted so badly. Since you are a member of my Han family, then get up and talk!" Liu Hongjian winked at Chen Jinnan, and Chen Jinnan immediately pulled a small stool over and put it on the table. Behind Montel.
"Thank you, my lord!" Montel stood up flattered, but he didn't dare to sit down, because he saw that the generals in the circle behind Liu Hongjian were all standing.
"Since you are here on behalf of Wandan, why do you want to find me?" Liu Hongjian asked Erlang with a tea bowl in his hand.
"Returning to my lord, to be honest, the villain's father was once a minister of the Banten Kingdom. After the Banten Kingdom was captured by the Dutch colonists, His Majesty the King died in the city. The surviving servants brought the two-year-old prince Hiding in the backcountry.
Fortunately, the prince Xing Wansheng's navy conquered Nanyang, the villain's father was overjoyed, and specially invited the villain to pay homage to the marquis, hoping to help him a little bit. "Montel said very respectfully.
Montel had doubts about the news from Luzon. Although he had never been to Daming, his ancestors said many times that corrupt officials, internal and external troubles, and political corruption were not enough to describe the darkness and corruption of Daming.
But now just seeing the fleet of Ming Dynasty made Montel seriously doubt the evaluation of his ancestors - if Wandan had a warship like Ming Dynasty, how could the country be destroyed by the enemy?
"Just you? What can you do for me?" Liu Hongjian glanced at the beggar-like Montel with disgust.
"My lord, if the villain is not like this, he won't be able to hide from the eyes of the Dutch." Montel seemed to see Liu Hongjian's disdain, and explained.
Whether in Ming Dynasty or in any other country, it is always the original sin of all people to dislike the poor and love the rich. No matter in any nationality, beggars are always ignored, and this point is too much for the Dutch.
Montel explained a few sentences and saw that Liu Hongjian was speechless, and then said: "Although Wandan Kingdom was destroyed, the centipede died but not stiff, is the prince worried about having nowhere to land?
The villain and the people of Banten behind the villain can help you, and we would like to provide you with a place to land. "
"The three ports in the entire Batavia region are all under the control of the Dutch. Where did you survivors who lost their country get the port?" Liu Hongjian frowned.
"My lord, it doesn't have to be a port that can land, you just need to send someone to take a look at the little one." Montel said bluntly.
In the end, Liu Hongjian did not reject Montel's proposal, because he really needed to land as soon as possible to guard against the Dutch support fleet that might arrive at any time, and he would have nothing to lose anyway.
That night, Chang Yu took Chen Jinnan and other experts to follow Montel to investigate. Three days later, Chang Yu returned to the fleet with joy on his face.
"My lord, I checked that place carefully, and the warships can't get in, but the problem of small ships transporting troops is not a big problem." Chang Yu cupped his hands and said.
Liu Hongjian knew that Chang Yu was cautious, and Chang Yu was good at scouting. He said that it would be no problem if he could transport troops to land, so he looked at Montel with a gentle expression.
"Not bad! But I don't believe that you guys will be so kind. As the saying goes, it's not too late to get started. Tell me, what do you want from me?"
"My lord misunderstood. The Dutch colonists wantonly slaughtered the aborigines on this land, and Banten Kingdom was also destroyed because of rebelling against the Dutch. If you can lead the rebels to drive away the Dutch, the little one and the aborigines behind him We will all be very grateful to you." Montel said respectfully.
"Bullshit! This king hates you diplomats the most. If you ask ten questions and refuse to tell the truth, I will give you another chance to reorganize your language. If you still refuse to tell the truth, then this king really has nothing. Here it is!" Liu Hongjian said with a glare at Montell.
Montel blushed at Liu Hongjian's words. It was the first time he had seen such a high-ranking official of Ming Dynasty. He wondered how this graceful and luxurious prince with a different surname got into this position, but he immediately spoke honestly. up.
"To be honest, this decision was made by Prince Harold of Wandan Kingdom. Following the will of the late emperor, Prince Harold has been keeping a low profile and hoping to rebuild the Wandan Kingdom." Montel fell to his knees with a plop and asked Liu Hongjian petitioned.
In fact, this decision was made by his father. Harold didn't agree with it at first. Although the Dutch were cruel, why didn't the Franks and even the English who were on the island a few years ago hunt and kill his people everywhere?
But the Montel lineage is descended from the Han people after all. They know that all the Han families rule the world with Confucianism, and they have never invaded any country without reason for more than 1000 years.
What's more, Nanyang is thousands of miles away, and the Han Chinese court lacks interest in the sea, so Prince Harold agreed to this desperate decision.
"Do you want me to help you restore your country?"
