People live in the Ming Dynasty, evil spirits are soaring into the sky

Chapter 272 Kill the traitor! Bombard the Haojing Frankies! !
"Don't come with me. You won't be helping your father or me when the time comes. It'll be so uncomfortable to be caught in the middle!" Chen Han said to Sophia.

Sophia felt very uncomfortable hearing Chen Han's words.

Indeed, as Chen Han said, if it were not for his father, perhaps this chain of interests would not exist.

And it’s really not appropriate to go by yourself.

"I will ask someone to take you to the capital. You can help me check the construction of the university first. As for the rest, there is no need for you to follow.

Anyway, since you have been in Zhangzhou Prefecture for so long, your father probably thinks you are dead. "

Although Sophia felt very unhappy after hearing this, she still felt that this was the best arrangement.

"That's right! You are not allowed to preach after arriving in the capital! I don't care what form it is. I will not interfere with your own beliefs, but if I find you secretly preaching, I will use the death penalty!"

Chen Han does not believe in the religion they believe in.

Because that religion’s favorite method is induction.

Its exclusivity is also very serious.

Often in the area where he is located, it is basically difficult for other sects to live.

Most importantly, this sect easily forms private cliques.

There were many such lessons in the Ming and Qing Dynasties, but Chen Han did not want to accept such beliefs in his native country.

Sophia felt very sad for a while after hearing this.

Because she felt that many people in the Ming Dynasty just needed a kind of faith.

Maybe this is the reason for the different views.

……

Xiangshan County.

Now the county is gone.

In the early days, Xiangshan County was very large.

Including the current cities of Macau, Zhuhai and Zhongshan.

In fact, the founding father, Dr. Sun Yat-sen, was from Xiangshan County.

It was in order to commemorate the founding fathers that it was changed to Zhongshan County, and then Zhongshan City came into being.

Of course, the reason why Xiangshan County is so large.

The corresponding thing is that the land is vast and the people are sparse.

Lingnan did not begin to flourish until the end of the Ming Dynasty.

Especially after the Little Ice Age, when winters in the north became increasingly colder, a large number of northerners moved south to Lingnan.

However, even during the Wanli Period, today's Lingnan area, around Guangzhou Prefecture, was relatively prosperous.

Other places still maintain their original primitive landforms.

Chen Han's purpose this time was very clear, and he directly took the evidence to expel the Frankies in Haojing.

Chen Han doesn't care how much Frankie people have contributed to Haojing.

Not to mention that they can promote maritime trade.

Under the laws of the Ming Dynasty, what they are now engaged in is smuggling trade.

Many officials in Guangzhou Prefecture developed through the smuggling trade.

On the one hand, Chen Han came to this place to destroy the Frankies in Haojing, and on the other hand, he also wanted to explore the opening of the sea.

People are to be killed.

But if we don't do this, it will be a waste of resources.

Zheng Guangming, this bastard, really deserves to die.

But he was right about one thing.

Many officials clung to the idea of ​​a celestial empire and felt that foreign products were not good, so they did not attach much importance to coastal trade.

But Chen Han, who comes from modern times, understands very well that if we don't establish contact with overseas countries from this time on, we will not get any good results if we continue to close the country in isolation.

After traveling all the way south to Guangdong.

Since Chen Han himself did not conceal his whereabouts, officials along the way already knew his purpose.

At this time, no matter where the officials were, they would tremble whenever they heard Chen Han's name.

No matter how much these people hate Chen Han for killing countless people, they still have to bow when facing Chen Han. Should you be afraid when in front of Chen Han?

In particular, the prefect of Guangzhou is very honest.

Before Chen Han could take the initiative to cause trouble for him, he knelt down to Chen Han at the gate of Guangzhou City when he greeted him, and then cried bitterly, saying how he had accepted Zheng Guangming's money to help his daughter. Get away with it.

Maybe he also knew that Chen Han directly sent Jin Yiwei to arrest Zheng Guangming's family. He also heard about what Chen Han did in Fujian, and knew that if he didn't explain, his end would definitely not be good.

So he voluntarily surrendered.

In view of his good performance, Chen Han did not kill him directly, but sent him and his family to Liaodong, where there would be a lot of iron ore digging workers.

This can be regarded as leaving a way for their family to survive.

The prefect of Guangzhou was extremely grateful for this.

Of course, Chen Han did not have any kind intentions, but bought the horse bones with thousands of gold.

Let more officials who have committed crimes come forward proactively.

He is not an officer who only knows killing, but he understands that killing is only a means and not an end.

To speed through the Ming Dynasty, it is not enough to rely on your own strength.

Sure enough, Chen Han's magnanimity quickly led many officials to come forward on their own initiative.

For example, Wang Bai, the deputy envoy of Haidao under the jurisdiction of the Imperial Envoy.

Chen Han was very angry when he saw this Wang Bai, the reason why he was angry.

The reason can be traced back to the emperor Jiajing.

At that time, Emperor Jiajing was obsessed with Taoist fasting rituals and needed to burn ambergris in order to achieve the fairy-like artistic conception of the smoke curling up.

And at that time the Frankians had access to ambergris.

So Guangdong officials, especially Wang Bai, who was the deputy envoy of Haidao, accepted bribes from the Franchis in order to cater to Emperor Jiajing's needs.

The Frankies provided ambergris to Wang Bo, and Wang Bo allowed them to occupy Haojing as their camp, which is still the case today.

Wang Bai gained a lot of benefits from it.

Now Emperor Jiajing is no longer here.

He knew better that his end was coming.

Especially after hearing that Chen Han had killed Zheng Guangming in Fujian, he was restless day and night. Now that he saw that the Guangzhou prefect and his family were simply sent to Liaodong, he quickly stepped forward.

"Captain, you shouldn't accept bribes from the Frankies. You deserve to die! Please punish me, Governor!"

Seeing this traitor who betrayed the country's territory, Chen Han didn't want to talk nonsense with him. He took the musket and said: "For those who betray the country's interests, the greatest mercy of my governor is to give you a good time!"

Say it and pull the trigger! !
boom! !

Wang Bai's head exploded.

When the officials present saw Wang Bai dying on the spot, no one felt sorry. Instead, they secretly gave a thumbs up: Well done!
"Officials who have participated in smuggling had better surrender themselves, otherwise when this inspector finds out, not only your life will be taken, but every living person in your family tree."

After Chen Han finished speaking, he rode into the city on horseback.

His target this time was the Frankie people in Haojing, so he did not stop in Guangzhou.

three days later.

Outside Haojing City.

This place has been built in Frankie style by the Frankie people.

Many bunkers were even set up.

There are now more than 7,000 Frankies in Haojing.

All of them are businessmen engaged in smuggling business, and there are also some exiled prisoners.

The rest were Han slaves they bought and slaves from colonial areas in Southeast Asia.

When Chen Han arrived with three thousand troops, the Frankies actually started martial law and even arranged musketeers on the city wall.

"People from the Ming Dynasty are not allowed to come near. This place belongs to the colonial area of ​​our Frankies. According to the laws of the colonial area..."

After Chen Han heard the shouting from the castle, he shouted: "Fire the cannon!!!"

boom! !

Thirty cannons removed from Spanish battleships lit their fuses...

Third update! It’s the end of the month, please give me a monthly ticket! !
