The Resurrection of the South Seas of the Ming Dynasty

Chapter 56 Reconstruction of Jinyiwei

Behind the door, there are densely packed soldiers of the Restoration Army with swords in their hands and solemn faces.

Obviously, this is a phishing law enforcement!
There are quite a few Spaniards among the craftsmen in the weapons workshop. Although Zhu Hongyu did not treat these Spaniards differently in terms of treatment, he gave them the same salary and treatment as the Chinese.

But to say that he really trusts these Spaniards, that would be bullshit!
The reason is very simple, the minds of people who are not of our race must be different!
What's more, the issue of weapons and ordnance is related to the fate and future of the Liberation Army, and Zhu Hongyu can't take it too seriously.

The most typical negative teaching material is the explosion of Wang Gong Factory in the late Ming Dynasty!
A big explosion at Wang Gong Factory directly destroyed the firearms research and development and production system of the Ming Dynasty, killing a large number of professional craftsmen and talents.

The cause of the Wang Gong factory explosion is unknown, but there are several possible theories.

One said it was done by the Chinese people who had converted to Jesus in collusion with Jesus, and the other said it was done by Hou Jin's spies.

But it is more said that it was the big bang caused by the loopholes in the management system of the Ming Dynasty!
But the possibility of the last one is actually the least!

Wang Gong Factory is located in the capital, where gunpowder is stored, so it has a lot to do with it. If it explodes, it will disturb the nobles, and no one can afford it.

Even if the nobleman is not disturbed, the gunpowder explosion will kill him.

Who dares to slack off on this kind of thing? !

Therefore, Wang Gong Factory has not had any accidents for more than 200 years.

But why did something happen at the end of the Ming Dynasty?

Since the cause of the explosion is unknown, the investigation has no clue.

Based on the principle that whoever benefits is the murderer, the suspects in the Wang Gong factory explosion were either foreigners or Houjin.

Needless to say, after the Jin Dynasty, the explosion of the Wanggong factory caused the Ming army's firearms research and development and production capabilities to collapse directly. As the biggest enemy of the Ming army, they must have benefited the most.

And what about foreigners?

The most direct result of the explosion at the Wanggong Factory was that in the year of Chongzhen, when the imperial court wanted to host the Denglai New Army, it had to invite Portuguese firearms craftsmen to make cannons and muskets.

Moreover, after this incident, China's firearms research and development capabilities completely lagged behind the West.

You know, before this, the development level of Ming's firearms was no worse than that of the West!
So, who dares to say that foreigners have not benefited?

Regardless of who was behind the big explosion at Wang Gong Factory, the word "spies" cannot be escaped!

Zhu Hongyu murmured in his heart, since the spies could cause a big explosion in Wang Gong's factory in the late Ming Dynasty.

Then can you also give him a copy, destroying the production capacity of weapons and ordnance of the Liberation Army? !

Just thinking about it is a shock!
So, there is this fishing law enforcement!

He sent his cronies, claiming to be spies sent by the Governor-General in Manila.

In the weapon workshop, they wanted to connect with each other, and in the name of the governor's mansion, they encouraged the restless elements in the weapon workshop to rebel.

He wants to use this fishing law enforcement to clean up and down the weapon workshop!
Only in this way can he rest assured!
Obviously, this phishing law enforcement was a success!
Quite a few restless elements were caught!
Zhu Hongyu stood in front of everyone, staring at the six people outside the door with extremely sharp eyes, he said with a sneer.

"good very good!"

"It seems that this general is too lenient to you, and actually let you have such a wolf-hearted idea!"

Four of the six people turned pale with fright at the scene in front of them.

Especially when they were looked at by a group of Liberation Army soldiers with eyes like they were looking at a dead person.

As soon as Enridoir's legs went limp, he slumped on the ground, his crotch was wet a lot, and there was a foul smell.

Zhou Tianxu took a step forward, knelt down on one knee in front of Zhu Hongyu, and said loudly.

"At the end of the day, Zhou Tianxu fulfilled his mission and successfully completed the mission!"

One of the two Spaniards also stood up and said.

"Dear General, I have done what you asked me to do. The 100 silver dollars you promised me..."

Zhu Hongyu nodded and said to Zhou Tianxu.

"Thank you for your hard work. This general will never forget your contribution, and neither will the rest of the Liberation Army!"

Then he spoke to the Spaniard again.

"Leon, you completed your mission beautifully!"

"A total of 120 silver dollars, I have ordered someone to send it to your room!"

"I promise to give you something, this general will naturally not go back on it, and I will not lose a single point. The extra 20 yuan is a reward for your performance this time."

Leon's face suddenly burst into light, and he said in a very sincere tone.

"My dear General, I praise you from the bottom of my heart. You must be the most generous, kind, smart, and brave person in this world..."

"May the Lord bless you always healthy, always strong, and always full of energy!"

Leon had a lot of good things to say, and he laughed so hard that he couldn't see his eyes.

Zhu Hongyu said with a chuckle.

"sincere?"

"Hehe, how much is a catty? Can I eat it?"

Leon didn't care either. After saying goodbye to Zhu Hongyu, he happily walked towards his thatched hut.

He can't wait to hear the clinking sounds of the adorable silver coins!
Zhu Hongyu's eyes suddenly turned cold, and he said in a cold tone.

"Come here, imprison all four thieves, and have a public trial tomorrow!"

Zhu Hongyu gave an order, and the soldiers of the Restoration Army rushed towards Angrivado and the others like wolves and tigers.

Enrivado and the other four were captured, Zhu Hongyu rubbed his brows, and then made arrangements.

"The patrol team has stepped up its vigilance. Zhou Tianxu will follow me. Everyone else should go to rest!"

……

Zhu Hongyu took Zhou Tianxu to his thatched cottage.

The two entered the thatched hut, sat down separately, and Zhu Hongyu spoke.

"Tianxu, you did a good job in enforcing the fishing law this time. The arrest of the four restless elements cleared away a major hidden danger in the military industry system of our Liberation Army."

"However, this also exposed the lack of intelligence capabilities of our Liberation Army!"

"I intend to rebuild Daming's Jinyiwei, responsible for intelligence collection, espionage, assassination and other work. This important task will be entrusted to you."

"I'll figure out a solution to the funding problem!"

"You go and pick a group of competent people first, and set up Jin Yiwei's shelf!"

"I will entrust you with the heavy burden of the first Jinyiwei Commander!"

Zhu Hongyu's desire to rebuild the Jinyiwei was not a short-term idea.

But Jin Yiwei, as an intelligence agency, must be in the hands of trustworthy people.

Zhou Tianxu was the Commander of Jinyiwei Capital selected by Zhu Hongyu.

Like Zhou Tianxu and Li Guangyuan, they also grew up with Zhu Hongyu, and they are reliable in terms of loyalty.

And in the process of fishing law enforcement this time, he also showed his ability.

Therefore, Zhu Hongyu came up with the idea of ​​asking him to start rebuilding Jinyiwei!
Zhou Tianxu accepted Zhu Hongyu's task of rebuilding Jinyiwei, but said.

"General, you let the last general form the Jinyiwei, this is your trust in the last general."

"Even if the last general is smashed to pieces, he will never say anything!"

"But please take back the order, the general. Don't appoint the commander of Jinyiwei, the last general, and just appoint the last general with a general banner!"

"Jinyiwei is newly built, and the last general doesn't have many people under his command. If he claims to be a commander to the outside world, I'm afraid he will be laughed at."
