Dragon Sea Empire

Chapter 295 The Contract and the First Battle

"Seven Great Hate" is Yin Feng's evil taste.But it stunned most of the people present.No one thought of it.The actions of the imperial court can be "hated".Those gentry and scholars who are present are the most fancy.These so-called "hate things".It's not out of Yin Feng's personal or family's personal grievances.Fundamentally speaking, it involves all businessmen and common people.The imperial government can do whatever they want.Indeed, everyone's interests have been violated.

However, although everyone shouted to rebel.But it's not that he broke his face with the court so mercilessly and denounced the Zhu family dynasty.It is indeed a test for the psychological endurance of most of the people present.

Wait a moment.Xu Hongji was surprised to find that the people below were completely silent.Can't help but look back at Yin Feng.Yin Feng immediately hinted at Lin Xiao, Mai Xiaoliu and others who were hiding in the crowd.immediately.Five hundred student soldiers shouted in unison: "Long live Captain Yin. Faming. Faming."

then.Waves of sound set off a climax again.Someone kept shouting:

"Faming."

"The owner of the ship is king. Long live."

Yin Feng stood on the stage.Wave.Tens of thousands of people gradually calmed down.

"I am a citizen of China. Since ancient times, I have traveled overseas to respect the people of other races. Only the current imperial court has caused my Chinese people to be slaughtered overseas. They also colluded with overseas barbarians to stab us in the back. Yes. What can't be tolerated. Such a court. Don't wait for when."

Yin Feng's words were relayed by [-] students in military Mandarin, Hokkien, Fuzhou, Chaozhou and other dialects.

"We are waiting for the people to gather here. It is not for personal gain. It is to put order out of chaos for the people of the world. Therefore, I am Xia Yinfeng. I cooperate with all shareholders of the company. I made a special contract. Guan Gong and Mazu are above. The heaven and the earth are the witnesses. We to the world All peoples made a contract. If we who made the covenant violated it, we will be punished by heaven and earth."

At this time.Those student soldiers sent printed silk papers to every shareholder.The shareholders below looked at each other in blank dismay.Some stared in a daze, some looked bloody and angry, and some blushed.

Xu Hongji stepped forward again and shouted in his high-pitched voice: "China United Company Yin Dadong, the leader of the Chinese Army President. Yazhou regiment training envoy, Taiwan patrol inspector, Quanzhou Weiqianhu Yinfeng represents all shareholders. Set up a plan for the Ming Dynasty. The oath. If the Erming court does not agree to these agreements, we will never stop:

All the people in the world are the children of my Chinese kingdom.All shall share in the protection of our contract with all peoples.In order to enable the people all over the world to live in peace and harmony with this contract.We will go all out and never give up until we reach our goal.

One: Since then.Where faithful and reliable witnesses and evidence cannot be provided.Court officials were not allowed to subject anyone to punishment solely on their own will.

Second: I am any one of the people of China.If there is no judgment based on the law.None shall be arrested, imprisoned, confiscated property, or deprived of legal protection rights by court officials.exile.or any other damages.

Third: The imperial court must protect the personal and property safety of all overseas citizens.Except for the people of countries that are hostile to us during wartime.All merchants.If you can abide by the laws and customs.exorbitant and miscellaneous taxes can be exempted.Safe passage through waterways and waterways.Travel to and from all parts of the country to conduct business.

Sixth: The imperial court allowed the chief secretaries to recommend recognized commercial and civilian representatives to be stationed in Beijing.Formation of the Council; all court-related taxes.It has not been decided by the meeting bureau and the ministers of the imperial court.Promulgation and execution are not allowed.

……

Dear shareholders.If you agree to the above oath, please come up and sign.We will be in the same boat in the future.Never give up until the goal is reached. "

These terms of the oath are actually speaking with the business people as the main body.According to Yin Feng's idea is very general and very limited.No specific measures were taken to explicitly limit the use of power by the imperial court.Not even the British Magna Carta.

but.At the meeting of the board of directors of the Chinese company.Even such a contract cannot be passed.Zeng Qi objected on the grounds that there was no such practice in all dynasties.Yin Feng stopped him with a single sentence: "What we are doing now is something that has never been done in the past dynasties."

at last.It was Yin Feng who forcibly passed the six oaths by relying on his own prestige.

but.These contracts and oaths still make it clear that "the guilty shall not be killed without trial." "No private property confiscated without guilt". "If the people don't agree, they are not allowed to collect taxes without authorization" and other clauses that were quite shocking to the Chinese at that time.

Those are rich.But the wealthy people who had to bribe corrupt officials suddenly realized that Yin Feng was as caring as their own relatives; those victims who had no power and no power and came here by luck could not believe listening to the students around them. commentary.He looked at Yin Feng with piercing eyes.Treat him as a saint alive...

Although in the crowd.Business people are most impressed by the six oaths.But some sensitive people also instinctively saw the beneficial content in the oath.

"We are merchants. Can we really be on an equal footing with the imperial court?"

Zhang Yuyu murmured to himself.He looked at the paper in his hand dreamily.Suddenly stood up and shouted: "Captain Yin. Count me in. I will sign."

……

The general meeting of shareholders finally turned into a vigorous anti-clear oath agitation meeting.Influenced by the extremely warm atmosphere all around.All shareholders have signed and pledged.Many shareholders wake up before going to bed at night.I regret it.But it was too late: the evidence of his participation in the rebellion had already fallen into Yin Feng's hands.Many shrewd businessmen are under the atmosphere created by Yin Feng mobilizing the masses.For a moment, he lost his calm and rationality.I signed it in a daze.This is not surprising.After all, a political rally like the Cultural Revolution.The original historical time and space will not happen until after the French Revolution.Its dreamy and magical hypnotic effect cannot be resisted by ordinary people.

Yin Feng mobilized his movable type printing workshop and various bookstores.Fully print the "Seven Major Hateful Calls to the Ming Dynasty" and "Six Major Vows".Various methods are used to send all over the country from the next day.but.He didn't print all the shareholders' signatures.to protect their families.

Cai Shanji, the prefect of Quanzhou, was the first to see these two documents.He was frightened by the "Seven Great Hatreds" and almost went into shock.Then he was stunned by the "six vows".In front of the state judge, he was stunned for half an hour.The next day he resigned from office on the grounds of his mother's illness.Leaving Quanzhou.

The morning after he left Quanzhou.Forty warships of the Second Fleet of the Chinese Army departing from Kinmen carried 3000 sailors and musketeers.Landed on the coast near Anhai.Drive straight in.Under the cheers of the people along the way, they rushed to the city of Quanzhou.At the second watch that night, they seized the east gate in one fell swoop.At this time.The six classes of government servants in the city and the local Baojia in various neighborhoods began to move around.Announce that the Chinese company has taken over Quanzhou City.A large number of posts about the "seven major hatreds" and "six vows" appeared in various streets and intersections.

Guarding the east gate are guard soldiers of Quanzhou Guard.They have already contacted the Chinese Army.As soon as the Musketeers arrived at the city.Immediately they opened the city gates.

It was Fuzhou soldiers transferred from Jiangxi who burned down Zeng's ancestral house and Yin Feng's house in the north of the city.They were transferred after the imperial court announced the sea ban.I just arrived in Quanzhou a month ago.Because military discipline is really bad.There have been no less than twenty conflicts with the people in the city.At this time, three battalions of Fuzhou soldiers left Quanzhou and went to Haicheng.Only more than 1000 Fuzhou soldiers remained in Quanzhou City.

When the Sailor Musketeers rushed into the city.Someone quickly came out to lead the way.The sailors quickly surrounded the Fuzhou barracks.At this time, most of the soldiers in Fuzhou hadn't woken up yet.

After being awakened by the sound of flintlock muskets.Most of the Fuzhou soldiers became the targets of unilateral massacres.They scurried about the camp.Shot by the sailors like a hunt.In the end, Liu Xiang, the captain of the Taiwan Corps of the Sailor Musketeers, found that these Fuzhou soldiers were running around without thinking.Not fighting back at all.Hurry up and order a ceasefire.

the next day. More than 1000 Fuzhou soldiers were killed and more than 200 people were killed.The rest disarmed and surrendered.Quanzhou and today fell.It fell into the hands of the Chinese Army Sailors and Musketeers from Taiwan.

Faming's first battle.The Chinese military used a beautiful surprise attack.Captured Quanzhou Prefecture at the cost of 20 wounded.Then.All the areas under Quanzhou Prefecture were controlled by the Chinese Army without bloodshed.On the sea of ​​Fujian.The main warships of the Taiwan Fleet, the Second Fleet, Dingyuan, Feibao, and Feihu, gathered at the mouth of the Minjiang River.Haitan Island was occupied by the Chinese Army.The latest main battleship Zhenyuan bombarded Nan'ao Island with 130 artillery pieces on board.Didn't wait for them to finish the round.The South Australian army surrendered.same day.Haichengyue Port was occupied by tens of thousands of boat people who spontaneously rioted.It didn't take long to play the Chinese flag on a blue background.The so-called five major water villages along the coast of Fujian.Only Fenghuomen still has dozens of warships.But when they appeared on the blue Chinese flag of the Chinese Army and Navy.Voluntarily surrendered.within a few days.Almost all important islands off the coast of Fujian have been controlled by the Chinese Army.On the coastline of Fujian.The only armed ships that can be seen are the Chinese navy warships.

After all, the Chinese company has been operating in Fujian for more than ten years.And the main board members are mostly Fujianese.Over the years, Fujian has relied on the trade and agriculture of Chinese companies to support nearly one million people.The rapid fall of Quanzhou.Shen Yourong, the Fujian general, was caught off guard.He never expected that the Chinese Army would fight as soon as it said it would.He didn't know that the Chinese Army was always in a state of combat readiness.Ready to fight anytime.
