Nanming: I can build wonders

Chapter 144 Just set up the Ryukyu Protectorate?
When the guards entered the palace, Zhu Tiangui and Pan Aqiang discovered an embarrassing scene. Ryukyu Wang Shangzhen had already died!
On the spot, third officer Cai Tongyan collapsed, crying on the ground with tears streaming down his face.

I saw dead bodies everywhere in the royal palace. In addition to the Ryukyu corpses, there were Japanese warriors who committed seppuku.

"These crazy Japanese people! I can't forget that the king hates these Japanese people so much, hey." Cai Tongyan's crying was very uncomfortable, and even Qian Yan, who had no sympathy for the princes and nobles, couldn't help but say a fair word.

Zhu Tiangui suppressed his anger, and said: "See if there are any living males in the Ryukyu royal family, and then report the list to the king, and see which one he wants to be canonized!"

It is a pity that Shangzhen's two sons, Shangchun and Shangyi, were killed by Huashan Masashi.

The entire palace was bleeding like a river, and it was difficult to find a living person!
"What's the matter? The king asked us to canonize the Ryukyu king, but no one can become the Ryukyu king. How can we explain this to the king!" Zhu Tiangui was very troubled. The Shimadzu family destroyed his mission. I can't wait to rush to the Kyushu Island of the Wa Kingdom to clean up the damn Shimadzu's house.

"Captain Zuo, why don't we turn Ryukyu into our territory and set up a Ryukyu Protectorate, anyway, their royal family is gone!" Pan Aqiang thought more directly.

This is really a good idea. Anyway, Zheng Kezang's goal is to get Ryukyu, so it doesn't matter what form it takes.

When the two of them were studying how to annex Ryukyu, Qian Yan and Cai Tongyan ran over happily: "My lord, the Ryukyu royal family has a living, and the daughter of Ryukyu Wang Shangzhen's daughter Shang Li is still alive!"

This interrupted the plan of the two of them. The daughter of the King of Ryukyu, how about killing her?

What a bad news!

Zhu Tiangui found an excuse to drive away Cai Tongyan, leaving Qian Yan to ask, "Why does the Ryukyu King still have a daughter?"

Qian Yan replied excitedly: "Captain Zuo, Shang Li escaped by hiding in the palace kitchen. She is fourteen years old and has a really good appearance. She has bright eyes and white teeth. She is the embryo of a beauty. If she grows up in the future, she will probably be a troublesome beauty."

"How about we take over the king and let him come here to preside over the overall situation. By the way, let's see if we want to accept Shang Li as a concubine. It happens that the king doesn't have enough concubines!" Zhu Tiangui was thinking about Zheng Kezang's life again Big deal.

Pan Aqiang, however, was thinking about military and national affairs, and said, "Commander Zuo, how can we let the king annex Ryukyu?"

The bold Qian Yan, who has always had no king or father, came up with an idea: "It's better to let the king canonize Shang Li as the queen of Ryukyu, and by the way, accept him as a concubine. This Ryukyu will become Shang Li's dowry!"

This made Pan Aqiang call it wonderful, and he was able to annex Ryukyu, and his food was not ugly, and he even gave the king a beauty.

Only Zhu Tiangui had some doubts: "It's not in accordance with the etiquette to confer a woman as king!"

"Regardless of his etiquette, Ryukyu people can't get enough to eat, so they still care about whether their king is a man or a woman?" Qian Yan murmured in his heart, but he didn't dare to speak out, because these two were his superiors , can't be offended, his emotional intelligence has always been good.

"Report the situation to the king first, we can't make decisions randomly, let's see what he has to say!" Pan Aqiang had no resourcefulness, he only knew to obey Zheng Kezang's command.

For a while, they didn't dare to mess around, so they sent a fast boat to send Chen Weiguo, a hundred households of Jinyiwei, to Dongning Mansion to report the situation of Ryukyu to Zheng Kezang.

Considering that their great king is likely to visit Ryukyu, Pan Aqiang ordered the guards to search the city of Shuri, search for Japanese people everywhere, arrest them, escort them to the port warehouse and imprison them, so as to prevent these crazy Japanese people from engaging in assassination .

For the "Ryukyu traitors" made by the Japanese in the city, they were very rude. The whole family was arrested, their wealth was confiscated, and they were taken back to Dongning Mansion!

Shuri City is in chaos, cold and rainy, many people are going to be unlucky!
Of course, more civilians are happy that Ryukyu has finally returned to Daming's father's arms.

Although Daming is now in decline, Wude seems to be more abundant.

The common people don't need to talk nonsense, just look at the large ships in Naha Port and the guards in the city to convince them.

What did they see?
Tall battleships, mighty cannons, and energetic and fierce Guards soldiers!
The common people in Shuri Castle are worried that the guards are gone, because they will feel insecure without them.

The chaos in Shuri Castle soon subsided, and the guards did not stop there, and continued to clean up other Japanese forces on Ryukyu Island, because Ryukyu Island is not only a city in Shuri, but also Nakijin Castle in the north and Nakijin Castle in the south. Dali City.

In addition to the largest Ryukyu Island, there is also the Amami Islands to clean up. Ryukyu seems small, but it takes a lot of work. The guards have a lot of work!
Compared with Ryukyu Island, the Amami Islands have much more complex issues. On September 1611, [-], King Shangning was forced to sign the "Fifteen Articles" with the Shimadzu family, acknowledging the Shimadzu family's control over Ryukyu and at the same time The five islands of Amami (i.e., Kikai Island, Tokuno Island, Amami Oshima, Oki Nagabe Island, and Yoron Island) were placed under the direct jurisdiction of the Shimadzu family.

In other words, the Amami Islands are now the territory of the Wa Kingdom.

However, the Guards and Daming did not agree with the "Fifteen Articles", so the Minhai Fleet fired a volley of artillery and roared, blasting the coastal defense forts on the island to ashes.

The huge Fujian Sea Fleet unreasonably and completely blocked the five islands of Amami. As for the Japanese people on the island, they will be taken care of slowly by the guards.

. . . . . .
After listening to Chen Weiguo's report, Zheng Kezang, who was sitting in the study, was speechless for a long time. Before, he thought that there was no need to go to Ryukyu, because people like Zhu Tiangui could handle it.

The main reason for not going is that Zheng Kezang wants to guide the construction of the armory in Dongning Prefecture!
The Venetian Armory is more complex than any of his previous wonders. This is a large naval base integrating a shipyard, naval headquarters, naval port, and naval armory. It cannot be sloppy.

Even if Lu Fan, a senior official from the Ministry of Industry, was watching, he was not at ease.

Zheng Kezang has been drilling on the construction site of the armory every day recently. Many difficult engineering problems have been solved by him, a talented civil engineering student. Seeing that the completion of the miracle is getting closer and closer, he finally has time to do other things.

"Chen Baihu, you did a great job in this Ryukyu operation. From today onwards, you will be Jinyiwei Qianhu, and you will be responsible for intelligence collection on Ryukyu and Japan." Zheng Kezang has always been rewarded for his meritorious service.

Chen Weiguo, the freshly-baked Jinyiwei Qianhu, immediately knelt on one knee and thanked Zheng Kezang for his gift.

He was also a little tempted by the attention Zhu Tiangui and the others paid him. He married the Ryukyu queen, but he proclaimed himself a Ryukyu regent. Will Ryukyu be his sooner or later?

Now the key question is, is this Shang Li good-looking? If not, he doesn't want to marry him!

"Notify the Luzon Protectorate to send two thousand Spanish Confederate Army troops to go to Ryukyu with the king."
