Da Ming started to ascend the throne

Chapter 541

Bo Tuo babbled in Dutch for a while, Liu Chao was stunned by Bo Tuo's question, and turned around to ask Mingjun's translator:
"What bird language does this foreigner speak, let him speak my Ming Dynasty official dialect."

The translator of the Ming army smiled slightly, clasped his fists in a hurry and said:

"He is Botto, the governor of the Netherlands stationed in Malacca. He can't speak my official language. They decided to formally surrender to Daming. They hope to know what weapons Daming soldiers used to attack them just now."

Liu Chao nodded slightly, and said to the translator solemnly:

"Tell them that the weapon used by the Ming soldiers just now is the latest firearm. The name is bastard. As the name suggests, it is a bomb specially used to deal with bastards."

The translator was taken aback:
"General, this..."

Liu Chao stared:
"True translation."

"Yes"

Although Liu Chao is just a thousand households of the Dragon Banner Army, that is also a regular fifth-rank official position.

The five ranks of the Dragon Banner Army are different. They truly belong to the emperor's pro-army, and their military salaries are paid by the emperor's internal funds. During the non-war period, Qi Jiguang, the governor of the five armies, has no power to control them.

The translator walked up to Botuo, and not only told Botuo exactly what Liu Chao had said, but also added a few sentences:
"The Dutch slaughtered our Ming people in Batavia. In order to protect the overseas people, the emperor of China decided to take all the colonies of the Netherlands in Asia. This is revenge for the Netherlands.

When His Majesty the Emperor of the Great Ming Dynasty attacked Batavia, he did not accept Batavia's surrender and beheaded them all for public display.

As the governor of the Netherlands in Malacca, Daming accepts your surrender. You should feel honored that you did not massacre my people, otherwise you will end up dead.

Although you did not massacre the overseas citizens of Daming, you also severely exploited our overseas citizens of Daming.

As for how to deal with you, it depends on the mood of His Majesty the Ming Emperor, please pray for good luck!
Oh, by the way, our general just said that the weapon that killed most of your soldiers was a firearm newly developed by Daming. "

The news that the soldiers and officials of the Netherlands in Batavia were all killed by Ming Dynasty, Botto had already received the news.

He thought that after Ming took Batavia in retaliation, he would end his revenge against the Netherlands.

Unexpectedly, Ming would not only take down Batavia, but also take down all the colonies of the Netherlands in Asia.

Daming is so ruthless, the Netherlands will no longer have colonies in Asia, and there will no longer be commodity bases such as spices.

You must know that Batavia and other colonies are the commodity trading center of the Netherlands in Asia. Losing Batavia and other colonies will definitely hurt the vitality of the Netherlands.

The Netherlands is known as the coachman of the sea, and will never admit defeat easily.

Botuo believes that sooner or later, the warships of the Netherlands will let Daming know what a sea coachman is.

Although Botuo surrendered, he still believed that the Netherlands could defeat Ming Dynasty.

It's just that their current forces are too scattered. Once the Netherlands gathers troops from all over the country, they will definitely be able to easily defeat the Ming Navy.

At that time, the unified dynasty with gold everywhere in the north was about to become the largest colony of the Netherlands.

After secretly cursing for a while, Botuo thought of that powerful bastard.

This thing is incredible, it is obviously a weapon for individual combat, but it actually emits more powerful power than artillery.

Botuo knew about the explosive bullets, but he had heard about the bastard bombs this time and it was far from being comparable to the explosive bullets.

This bastard is so powerful, it would be great if the Netherlands could get the bastard.

Why is it called bastard bomb?What is bastard?This must be clarified, it must be a powerful explosive.

After a while, Botuo had already thought of so many things, including confidence in the Netherlands, but also doubts.

Even though he thought that the Ming army would not tell him the formula of Wang Batan, he still asked ignorantly:
"Excuse me, Your Excellency General, what kind of bastard is it? Can you please satisfy our curiosity?"

"Pfft..."

When the Ming army present heard the foreign devil's question, they couldn't help it, and almost burst out laughing.

The translator hurriedly told Liu Chao what Bo Tuo had said, and Liu Chao couldn't help laughing out loud:
"Ignorant foreign devils, tell him that they Dutch people are bastards!"

"Yes"

The interpreter felt very amused, so he turned to Botto and said:
"Baoba is what Daming calls the people of the Netherlands. In Da Ming's eyes, you are the authentic Baba! Do you understand?"

"Oh, I see, so we Netherlanders are called bastards in your Ming Dynasty."

Bo Tuo's thoughtless words once again made the soldiers of the Dragon Banner Army laugh out loud.

Liu Chao didn't pay attention to Bo Tuo, in his heart, Bo Tuo was just a tease.

"Come on, quickly open the gate of the bastion and welcome the governor and the others into the city."

The gate of the castle opened slowly, Li Dingguo and Zhang Huangyan led his troops into the city, and the Ming army took over the castle of Santiago.

Not long after the Ming army entered the city, tens of thousands of Han people and businessmen flocked to the streets to welcome the arrival of the Ming army.

They were oppressed by the colonists of the Netherlands for so many years, and today they are finally liberated.

Many Chinese stood on the side of the road and clapped their hands with tears in their eyes. For them, it was dawn.

Li Dingguo and Zhang Huangyan came forward to welcome the Chinese from the Ming army, and waved frequently.

Then an order was sent to summon the natives of Malacca to clean up the battlefield.

In this battle, the soldiers of the Ming Dynasty also suffered no casualties, and they absolutely won.

In this era of having firearms, it can almost be said to be a miracle. This is the power of technology, more precisely, the power of the system.

The two major killers, mortars and grenades, both come from Zhu Youjian's system.

When the natives cleaned the battlefield, they saw a horrible scene.

The castle was littered with the bodies of natives and Dutchmen.

No, to be more precise, there are dead bodies with missing arms and legs and stumps and broken arms everywhere.

Li Dingguo did not let the Ming army clean up the battlefield, but called Malacca to clean up the battlefield.

His purpose is to frighten the local aborigines and let them know the fate of opposing Daming.

Then the soldiers were asked to clean up the governor's mansion, and Li Dingguo and Zhang Huangyan moved in afterwards.

After learning that the Ming general had moved into the Governor's Mansion, the Chinese families in Malacca went to the Governor's Mansion to meet him one after another.

They wanted to thank General Ming in person, and they also hoped to get back the manors and properties occupied by the Dutch.

Just kidding, the manors and properties that Daming snatched from the Netherlands will of course not be distributed to the local people.

After pacifying many Chinese, Li Dingguo sent an order to recruit a group of soldiers among the Han people.

In the future, the security and defense of Malacca will be handed over to these Chinese.

Li Dingguo did not intend to stay with the aboriginals who were restless in the local area, and he did not let the Ming army do anything.

He entrusted this glorious task to those Dutch soldiers who surrendered for their lives.

Li Dingguo will not let the soldiers of the Ming Dynasty bear the blame for massacring the local aborigines.

After all, the aborigines here are not as cruel as those in Batavia. If Ming wants to rule them for a long time, he can't do too much.
