Chapter 578 Take Me Too

There was a trace of lingering fear on Franco's face.

It seems that after so long, I still don't want to face the original fear in my heart.

"When Zheng Zhilong's fleet arrived in Manila, none of us realized the seriousness of the problem. They split into two groups, and both sides attacked Manila at the same time. Manila, which once thought it was solid, became unbearable in front of them. That was not enough until the First Fleet came aggressively and turned Manila Bay into a sea of ​​flames.

These, you must have learned.

But this time, their warships changed from seven to eighteen, and their fleet changed from one to two.Dozens of transport ships were also dispatched for ocean-going operations.They may not be capable of occupying our territory now, but they can destroy all of our sea power.If we cooperate with the Netherlands again and give them some firearms to support them, how long do you think our country can last?a year?Or two years?At that time, you and me, what should we do? "

Franco's voice was low, and the words he said hit Edgardo's chest like a heavy hammer.

He stayed on the boat these days and often thought about these issues.

Ming people's warships, and their warships, seem to be things from a different world.

He couldn't figure out how they could build such a big steel ship, let alone how such powerful artillery appeared.How many times he felt like he was living in a dream, but the reality was real.

Franco was right, let’s not talk about the country for now, if it really collapsed, what should these people who are used to rich clothes and rich food do?

Begging the Dutch for supper, wagging their tails, or dying for their country?Or run away from home and live on?

It seems that these are not what they want.

He wants to be rich and honored for generations to come.Want to always stand at the top of the pyramid.

And all of this seems to be able to continue only by relying on Daming!

"Franco, are Ming's conditions very harsh?"

"Yes, but I think His Royal Highness should agree." Franco nodded. "Because, there is no other choice!"

"Ugh"

Edgar let out a long sigh and stopped talking.

At this moment, there was a knock on the door, followed by Xiao Wu's voice.

"Edgardo, the supervisor invites you and Franco to dine together."

"Okay, let's go out right away." Edgardo agreed and looked at Franco. "Let's go, if you want to come this time, Xie Xuelong will talk about what's going to happen next."

The two came to the dining place together, and Xie Xuelong was already waiting.

After seeing the two people with bruised noses and swollen faces, they were suddenly startled, and then burst into laughter.

"What's going on with you two? Don't you mean good brothers who grew up together? Why are you still fighting?"

"The wind and the waves are big, so I accidentally slammed it." Franco laughed and sat down. "Master Xie, didn't you say that Edgardo was invited here? Why didn't you let him go back?"

"Don't let him go back? No!" Then he looked at Edgardo. "Did you say you were leaving? No?"

"No."

Edgardo nodded speechlessly.You are holding me as a hostage, I just want to go fucking, will you let me go?

"That's right. You didn't even say you were leaving. I thought you liked living here with us, so I was too embarrassed to say anything. There's no reason for a host to ask a guest to leave, don't you think?"

"Yes."

What do you say, you are shameless and you are invincible.

"Look, it's not that I didn't let him go, it's that he didn't say anything. Franco, you can't blame me, can you?"

"No wonder." Franco shook his head speechlessly, knowing that his question was in vain. "Then can he leave now?"

"Okay, if you want to go, just take him away."

"Really?"

"Really, take me with you when the time comes."

"Take you? What are you doing?"

"Come with you, don't you want to go back to Mexico City? I'll go with you."

"Are you going to Mexico City?"

Edgardo asked in disbelief.

Are you not afraid of death?
After blowing up so many of our ships, how dare you go to Mexico City with us?What's going on in your head?

"Okay. Stop guessing. I'm also afraid of death. But since we want to discuss business with your king, why don't we go there in person? Otherwise, how can we show our sincerity?"

"Master Xie is serious?" Franco said seriously.

"Naturally."

"Master Xie is so courageous! So courageous!" Franco said with sincere admiration. "Master Xie, I will do my best to ensure your safety!"

He originally thought that even if it was about business, Xie Xuelong would send an insignificant person there.

I didn't expect him to dare to go there in person.

But I think they also have such confidence, the fleet is parked outside the port, who dares to touch him?
But even so, most people don't have the guts, at least he doesn't.

The emperor of Ming Dynasty really had a way of employing people.

"Haha, life and death are fate, wealth and honor are in the sky! Tomorrow morning, I will go ashore with you. I will discuss the specific details of cooperation after meeting with your king in person. But you can rest assured that cooperation with our Daming will only benefit you. Good, no bad.

Edgardo, you have been on the ship for so many days, and you have been together for so long, you are still a good person.Although our camps are different, if this negotiation can be successful, there may be opportunities for frequent cooperation in the future.This meal is to welcome Franco, and it can be regarded as a practice for you.

I offer you a toast. If you meet again in the future, if you are a business partner, then let's have a good time again.If it is an enemy, it will never die!Done! "

The long military career has also made Xie Xuelong, who was born as a Jinshi, a lot more heroic, and his words are quite open.

Edgardo felt a little touched, even though he was captured.

But I didn't suffer any abuse, and I often received free lessons.

If it is about hatred, there is really not much.

Xuelong drank it down in one gulp, and he also picked up the glass and drank it in one gulp. Franco followed suit, and the three emptied the bottom of the glass.

Next, the three no longer mentioned the grievances between the two parties.Everyone talked about what they had seen and heard at sea, as well as the customs and customs of the places they had been to. Before they knew it, it was already very late at night.

Early the next morning, the three of them gathered at the bow of the boat.

"Franco, I'll take your boat directly!" Xie Xuelong said, looking at the sailboat on Franco's side in the distance.

"Here, isn't the fleet following?" Franco asked.

"No need, I'll just take Xiao Wu with me. I won't bring any money or anything else. You have to entertain me then."

"Then, fine!"

Franco nodded emphatically.

"Okay?" Lu Shiyan on the side spoke with a gloomy expression. He tried to persuade Xie Xuelong for such a risky behavior many times, but he couldn't persuade him.Even when he was about to leave, he tried to persuade him again, but it still didn't work.

"If there is something wrong with the supervisor, I will blow up all your ports in Spain. Then cooperate with the Netherlands to destroy your country!"
