Nanming: I can build wonders

Chapter 134 The Qing Dynasty signed an unequal treaty! (Please subscribe!)
"Father-in-law, who is this?" Zheng Kezang looked at the cell and wondered.

"This person is Shi Lang's confidant, he was sent by Shi Lang to form an alliance with the Dutch!" Chen Yonghua replied.

It turned out that on the way back from Batavia, Chen Ang thought it would be more dangerous to go through the South China Sea, so he thought of a good route, first go to Luzon, then to Wa Island, and then go ashore from Nanzhili back to Fujian.

His idea was good, but the first step was wrong.

When replenishing in Luzon Island, it was seized on the spot by the Immigration Bureau of the Luzon Protectorate.

His maritime identity is not a problem, but Chen Ang has braids.

The staff of the Immigration Bureau checked it carefully, and as a result, the paperwork they brought with them was checked out.

It turned out to be an envoy from the Qing Dynasty, so the eighteen tortures were necessary!
After torturing for a long time, Chen Ang, who couldn't stand it, recruited everything.

The negotiations between him and the Dutch were not smooth. The Dutch had suffered from the Qing Dynasty before, so their request was that once Zheng Kezang was defeated, Yizhou Island must be divided into them.

This is embarrassing, Chen Ang knows that Shi Lang's mission is to occupy Yizhou Island by the Qing Dynasty, how can he distinguish between people?
At the end of the negotiation, Chen Ang told the Dutch that he needed to report to Master Shi Lang.

Then on the way back, he was caught by Ming Zheng, because the matter was critical, Chen Ang was escorted all the way from Luzon back to Dongning Mansion for guarding.

"When I tortured him to extract a confession, I got an important piece of news. The Netherlands and Spain have colluded together and are likely to attack Luzon." Chen Yonghua said seriously.

"So peace talks with the Tartars are also beneficial, freeing up hands to deal with the coalition forces of the Netherlands and Spain." In view of the current situation, Chen Yonghua believes that peace talks are a better choice.

"I didn't expect the Netherlands and Spain to collude!" Zheng Kezang, as a veteran player of Europa Universalis, has naturally played the 30 Years War script, and he knows the grievances and grievances between the two countries clearly.

"This is also our opportunity. We will first negotiate peace with the Tartars, and then we will go all out to deal with the West Dutch coalition forces. I have long coveted Batavia, and it should have been ours long ago." Zheng Kezang analyzed.

Batavia is currently the most important trade center in Southeast Asia. It monopolizes the spice trade. If it takes it and the Spice Islands, Zheng Kezang will make a fortune!
"As for how to reconcile, we need to let the Tartars bleed, otherwise it's fine." Chen Yonghua said with a smile, obviously it is a happy thing to make the Tartars surrender.

"Father-in-law, you will be solely responsible for the peace talks!" Zheng Kezang said taking the opportunity.

Stroking his beard, Chen Yonghua thought for a while: "Of course!"

On October [-]th, under the pressure of Kangxi, Nalan Mingzhu had to start a real negotiation.

But Mingzheng was unwilling to place the negotiation site inland, so he had no other choice. For the sake of the Qing Dynasty, his old bones were worth risking himself, and he went there himself.

After friendly negotiations between the two parties, negotiations were finally held on a small ferry on Xiamen Island.

The two sides negotiated on the only two-storey building on the small ferry, a small inn.

Zheng Kezang also arrived at the scene in person, but the main negotiating matters were still fully in charge of Dongning General System Envoy Chen Yonghua, and Zheng Kezang was more in control of the general direction.

The first round of negotiations, the two sides soon broke up.

Chen Yonghua, who presided over the negotiations on behalf of Zheng Kezang, put forward very harsh terms of peace, and asked Nalan Mingzhu to reply within three to four days, mainly including:
First, the Qing Dynasty must stop the inward migration of coastal people and restore normal borders.

Second, admit that Goryeo is no longer a tributary state of the Qing Dynasty.

Third, the Qing Dynasty had to pay 100 million taels of silver and [-] shi of rice to Dongning every year. If the rice was not enough, it would be paid in silver.

Fourth, the Qing Dynasty handed over the war criminal Shi Lang to Ming Zheng for disposal, and compensated military expenses of 1000 million silver at one time.

Fifth, the Qing Dynasty opened two treaty ports including Guangzhou and Hangzhou to Ming and Zheng, and at the same time opened up the navigation rights of many inland rivers including the Yangtze River and the Yellow River.

Sixth, the Qing Dynasty returned Nan'ao Island, Dongshan Island, Pingtan Island, Zhoushan Islands, etc., here is the return, because Ming Zheng inherited the legal principles of Ming Zheng, and these are the core territories of Ming Zheng.

Seventh, the Qing Dynasty stopped slaughtering members of the Ming royal family.

Ming Zheng didn't know that Shi Lang had already been ordered to die, and he was listed as the number one war criminal, and he was prepared to be hacked into pieces. It can be said that handing over Shi Lang was the only condition Nalan Mingzhu could accept.

After putting down the conditions, no matter how ugly Nalan Mingzhu's face became, Chen Yonghua turned around and left without giving Nalan Mingzhu a chance to bargain.

Although Nalan Mingzhu was upset, he didn't say anything, because now the initiative is on Ming Zheng's side, it doesn't matter how he is treated, the key is not to embarrass the emperor too much.

On October 27th, the second round of negotiations began, and Nalan Mingzhu finally had a chance to speak.

But no matter what he said, Ming Zheng insisted on returning the island and compensating for military expenses.

Seeing that the negotiations were fruitless, Nalan Mingzhu's expression changed, and after a long time, she didn't know how to speak.

If these conditions are agreed, they will become sinners of the Qing Dynasty.

He would definitely be drowned by the spittle of civil and military officials when he went back, so he never dared to agree.

During the negotiations in the morning, a consensus was reached to compensate military expenses of 600 million taels of silver.

Negotiations resumed that afternoon, and this time they were intense.The time started at about two o'clock in the afternoon and lasted until dark at night, and this round of negotiations was temporarily ended.

But just because it was so fierce, it also showed that Mingzheng made some concessions, allowing Nalan Mingzhu room to bargain, otherwise the negotiation would not be able to progress.

On October 29, after several days of intense negotiations, at noon, the two parties finally signed a preliminary treaty at an unnamed inn on Xiamen Island, which was called "Xiamen Treaty Outline".

The main contents of the Xiamen Treaty Outline include:

[-]. The Qing Dynasty returned the three islands of Nan'ao Island, Dongshan Island and Pingtan Island.

600. The Qing Dynasty compensated [-] million taels of silver for military expenses in one lump sum.

[-]. The Qing Dynasty stopped moving borders to the forbidden sea, but did not restore the original borders.

[-]. The Qing Dynasty recognized that in this war, Xiamen, Jinmen, and Qiongzhou Island were the core territories of Ming and Zheng.

Supplement: Both parties are not allowed to publicize the results of this negotiation to the outside world, and keep it secret.

This point was specially requested by Nalan Mingzhu, for the sake of Kangxi's face.

Nalan Mingzhu signed the treaty with trembling hands, and muttered to herself: "Your Majesty, this disgrace, I will bear it!"

Nalan Mingzhu tearfully put away the treaty dedicated to Kangxi.

I saw that the contract stated 700 million taels of silver, and I received a kickback of 100 million taels of silver with tears in my eyes. I am really a pure loyal minister!
This rebate Zheng Kezang is the default, after all, this contract can be achieved, some of his credit is due to Mingzhu.

The pearl is fat and the world is thin!

I don't know how many people will be expropriated because of this treaty. Zheng Kezang can't control it for the time being, but it doesn't matter. Zheng Kezang will compensate them for the suffering the people have suffered.
