Dragon Sea Empire

Chapter 396 The Netherlands. Mao Wenlong

In the history of the expansion and colonization of the early days of the Chinese company.Yin Feng never advocated simple conquest by force.When dealing with Taiwan natives and Luzon natives.They all tried their best to win over the upper-class rulers of the aborigines.certainly.Everything is based on force.In the Nanyang area of ​​Southeast Asia.Yin Feng's comparative advantage.It is also the advantage that the Chinese company has over the Portuguese, the Dutch East India Company, and the British East India Company.It is the influence of traditional Chinese culture in this area and China's almost unlimited population advantage.in various parts of Southeast Asia.Yin Feng can let China's hundreds of thousands of organized immigrants eliminate all local resistance.Although the organization and mobilization ability of Chinese immigrants is not necessarily better than that of Western European powers.But adhering to the tradition of Chinese civilization integrating all heterogeneous cultures.However, it can drown out all the signs of the aborigines' existence in terms of cultural traditions and even racial biology.

To know.Later generations of European powers colonized Southeast Asia for 200 years.In total, there are only tens of thousands of white Europeans ruling the entire Nanyang region.

The situation in North Korea is different.Confucian culture has been spreading in this country for a long time.The upper ruling class Little China feels too good about itself.And the lower class people.There is no ability to organize and mobilize like a mess of sand.The situation of the lower class people in North Korea is similar to that in the Ming Dynasty.Yin Feng judged from this.Just subdue the upper ruling class in North Korea.Basically, the entire country of North Korea can be controlled.

therefore.Yin Feng was dealing with the North Korean issue.Appears impatient.Support the tough policies of military generals such as Yan Siqi and Zhao Tie.and.Yin Feng sent troops under the banner of punishing North Korea for its collusion with Jurchens.Nominally, he was working for the suzerain of the Ming Dynasty.When the various political factions in North Korea faced the bayonet of the Chinese army.First of all, I was short psychologically.

In January of the first year of the Apocalypse.The main force of the foreign mercenary corps entered North Korea.Began to suppress the resistance of "righteous soldiers" all over North Korea.Those red-haired Western devils with eyes and nose augmentation, and a group of black black soldiers.First of all, the North Koreans were stunned in terms of momentum.But in January.The foreign mercenaries with extremely cruel methods of burning and killing successively wiped out several large "volunteer" organizations in northern North Korea.

The Korean King Li Hun and the two classes of nobles couldn't bear it anymore.Constantly begging Zhao Tie, the commander of the Chinese Army's North Korea Road March: Get those foreign devils away.What do you want.We all said yes.As long as these foreign devils leave.

Zhao Tie gathered the main force of the foreign mercenary army in Seoul.Every day, he arrogantly runs rampant on the streets of Seoul.at the same time.Zhao Tie ordered the confiscation of the North Korean National Guard and the North Korean military weapons in various provinces in the north.Just let them hold the stick.Maintain local law and order for the Chinese army.

When Zeng Shan entered the Hall of Renzheng again.The king of North Korea came out of the hall to greet him personally.And asked Zeng Shan to sit down and talk to the king.Don't dare to do anything Canadian again.

Zeng Shan told King Li Hun and all the Korean ministers straightforwardly: Just cut off all contact with the Jurchens.Wholeheartedly support the Chinese Army in combat.President Yin of Jinghai King of China led the pledge: Let the Korean royal family continue to maintain its current status.The interests of the two groups of ministers and the landlords and gentry who obeyed the rule of the Chinese army will never be touched.otherwise.The Chinese Army will implement the policies implemented in various parts of Nanyang and the Ryukyu Islands.Confiscation of land from local landlords.Public auction to various merchants in the Ming Dynasty.

The ruling class of North Korea completely succumbed.North Korea thus became a semi-colony of the Chinese Army.Although there are still North Korean local government officials in the area north of the Datong River.But they all became puppets of the Chinese Army.The decrees of the North Korean government can basically only be implemented in the southern region.

The Ming Dynasty basically could only turn a blind eye to this situation.helpless.

……

Dalian Port has only one name at this time.In fact, except for a few fortresses.Basically all untouched beaches.There is only a short wooden trestle on the pier.but.In February of the first year of the apocalypse.A ship from the Netherlands in Europe is moored here: the three-masted Galen-type ship "Tulip".

Only half of the ship's mainmast remained bare.There are many marks of damage caused by artillery battles on the hull.It is now surrounded by nearly ten ketches of the Chinese Northern Fleet.Under the gaze of hundreds of cannons from land forts and sea warships.Looked very lonely and pitiful.

The "Tulip" is a refitted armed merchant ship.A total of twenty cannons were installed on both sides of the upper deck.With more than 230 crew members.

Now these crew members and their cargo are trapped in Dalian Port.Not daring to move.

Xu Daling, the director of the company's commercial office in Nagasaki, Japan, is pointing at the "Tulip" on the Dalian Fort.Said to Yin Feng: "The red-haired plywood boat appeared in Nagasaki in early February. No one knows which sea route it came from. I urgently sent a message to Feige in Naha Port, Ryukyu. Then I bribed Nagasaki, Japan with a lot of money. Pursued. The reason was that they were unable to unload due to lack of manpower. Let them stay in Nagasaki. Waiting for the giant ship Dingyuan to arrive. The red hair wanted to escape at first, but dared to fire a cannon to escape to the sea. The result was interrupted by the Dingyuan Mainmast."

"According to the King's "East Asia Maritime Transport Control Order". All Western ships want to trade with Southeast Asian countries, China, Siam, Wa, Annan, and North Korea. The goods sold must be transported by Chinese ships. Our Chinese company is in East Asia. There is a monopoly right to trade at sea. This is clearly recorded in the terms of the peace talks between us and the Red-haired country. This time, the ships from the Red-haired country smuggled into Japan. In any case, we cannot let them go easily."

The person who said this was Han Jing, the overseas trade director of Zhonghua Corporation.

Yin Feng nodded.Sneered: "Our peace treaty with the Dutch. According to the time, it should have been signed in the Netherlands. However, the third batch of European convoys has not returned. We don't know if there will be any troubles in the Netherlands. However, now Europe All countries are busy fighting. All maritime powers are involved in the war. This war will last for decades. The Netherlands should not have the power to fight us again in a short period of time. So. I thought this ship Smuggling into Japan. It’s just the private behavior of certain adventurers in the Netherlands.”

Xu Daling and Han Ping looked at each other.Han Ping asked: "Your Majesty, how do you know that all the Western countries are at war?"

The third batch of the Chinese company's fleet to Europe has not yet returned.It has been more than a year since I went to Europe.Maybe something happened on the way.How did Yin Feng know about the situation in Europe?Both of them had a big question mark in their hearts.

Yin Feng smiled triumphantly: "Don't worry, everyone. This is news related to the situation in Europe. I got it through other channels. I can be sure. When we are busy dealing with the imperial court and the Jurchens, we don't need to worry about the European powers coming again We're in trouble."

Chinese companies have at least 30 years to concentrate on dealing with internal problems in East Asia.Because of this round of war sweeping across Europe.It was called the "30 Years' War period" by later history.Know the direction of the historical trend.This is Yin Feng's unique advantage as a time traveler.Although the history of East Asia has been reversed and changed by Yin Feng.But Yin Feng considers himself a big butterfly.It should not be able to completely change the direction of European history.

Everyone thought it was the function of Yin Feng's secret intelligence system.This matter will no longer be pursued now.

Fan Tao, the commander of the Northern Fleet who had been silent at the side, said at this time: "It is worth noting how this ship came to Japan. The Nanyang Fleet, the Taiwan Fleet, and the Northern Fleet are patrolling everywhere in the East Asian sea. The place west of Malacca We don’t care about it for the time being. But the east of Malacca, the north of Java, is almost the inland sea of ​​my Chinese company. How can they drive straight to Japan. Moreover. The season is not right. Now the sea is still blowing from the north. How did the red-haired boat come from Southeast Asia? Could it be from America?"

At this time.The sound of cannons came from the sea off Dalian Bay.Two three-masted Galen-type Chinese cruisers appeared.Between the two warships.There is also a two-masted traditional Chinese blessing boat.It seems to be escorted by two warships.

Yin Feng raised his binoculars and took a look.Frowning: "What's going on. It seems that the boat in the middle is under the banner of the official army."

Fan Tao rushed to the crenel of the fort wall in surprise.He raised his binoculars and looked at it for a while.Shaking his head again and again: "It's the ship of the official army. What's going on? How come there are still ships of the official army who dare to come to Liaodong."

Yin Feng put down the binoculars: "I'm going back to the Lushun company shop first. Wait a minute and bring the captain of the red-haired boat to me. Also, Commander Fan. Go and find out what's going on with this official ship. By the way, bring the leader of the official army ship to Lushun Port."

……

evening.Yin Feng listened to Fan Tao's report.He stood up in surprise: "What. Who did you say the leader of the army is?"

"He said his name is Mao Wenlong. He is from Hangzhou. He is from the same hometown as you."

Yin Feng sat down.Pat the table.Hehe smiled: "I didn't expect it to be him."

Fan Tao was confused: "President leader. Do you recognize him?"

Yin Feng shook his head: "I don't know him. But I've heard of him before."

Fan Tao was even more confused: this official ship suddenly appeared at the mouth of the Yalu River.It seems that they plan to land on several islands under the jurisdiction of North Korea at the mouth of the sea.Spent half a day cruising between those islands.result.They were discovered by a convoy of the Chinese navy sailing to the mouth of the Yalu River.The escorting schooner immediately dispatched three ships to search for the officer's sailing ship.

The official ships turned around and fled.After a helpless chase at sea.Fuchuan is characterized by stability and slow speed.The speed of long-distance sailing cannot be compared with that of a schooner.After being overtaken by the fast ship of the Chinese army, it was bombarded.Had to drop the sails and surrender.

There were only a hundred people on this official ship.Claiming to be a standard battalion soldier under Wang Huazhen, governor of Liaodong.The leader's name is Mao Wenlong.It's just a small soldier in charge of the flag under the governor.They claimed to have come to search for soldiers lost in the Liaodong Campaign the previous year.Once you find someone, you will return to Quang Ninh.

Fan Tao was a little puzzled: this little soldier is a little guy with no reputation at all.How could the ship owner have heard of this man.

Yin Feng carefully searched his historical knowledge.Sitting there for a long time without words.Although Fan Tao was full of suspicion.After all, they are stable by nature.No question was asked.Sit quietly.

After a long time.Yin Feng said suddenly: "You bring that man. I'll question him personally. He is definitely not a soldier. At least he is a thousand-level officer."

Fan Tao frowned: "You mean. He is lying to us."

Yin Feng nodded: "This man was born in martial arts. He was a soldier of Uncle Ning Yuan Li Chengliang. He came to Liaodong. The purpose is definitely not that simple."

Fan Tao was even more surprised: when interrogating these officers and soldiers.Zeng Qing from the Ministry of Military Intelligence was also present.Did not see through the opponent's deception.His awe of Yin Feng in his heart deepened by three points.

"Your Majesty, besides the Ministry of Military Intelligence and the Ministry of Internal Affairs, there may be some secret organization..." Fan Tao was full of such thoughts.Quickly back out.
