Brocade clothing as the country

Chapter 1039 Do You Dare To Go Back?
Bai Wu, who already had a stench on his body, was taken to take a bath, changed into clothes, and brought him to Wang Tong's place after a full meal.

Bai Wu was extremely nervous both mentally and physically, but he knew that there might be hope for being treated like this, and his body went limp from his sudden relaxation, and he was carried directly into the main hall by the guards of the Duke of Liao's mansion.

In the process of being carried up, Bai Wu looked at the mansion of the Duke of Liao. This mansion is not even as grand as the mansions of luxury merchants in Guangzhou City, but it has a fortified appearance, more like a military camp. Seeing such a mansion, it is inexplicable I felt hope born in my heart.

In the middle of the main hall, Wang Tong was sitting there. If it weren't for the introduction of "this is my father-in-law", Bai Wu would not even believe that the young man in plain clothes was the Duke of Liao. He was even wearing a short robe.

Seeing Wang Tong nodding to him, Bai Wu felt his spirit relax all of a sudden, and kneeling on the ground suddenly felt grief from his heart, crying loudly, even his sentences were incoherent, just muttering "Qiu Guo Public revenge."
"You are not the only one who escaped from the tens of thousands of Ming people!?"

Wang Tong asked, his voice could not conceal the exhaustion, Bai Wuqiang held back his crying, his mind was in a mess at this moment, he forced himself to wake up there, and replied in a hoarse voice:

"Returning to the Lord, most of the Han people in Lu Song are fishing and trading at sea. If people with boats can go to sea, the ghosts may not be able to catch them. Many people escaped."

"There are quite a few people who have escaped, and they know to seek revenge. Now I only know you."

Wang Tong nodded and said, then raised his voice and said:

"Show him a seat!"

Bai Wu's spirit finally fully recovered, he kowtowed a few times on the ground, and said resolutely:

"If the father-in-law does not agree to kowtow to the tens of thousands of Han people in Luzon, the villain will not get up."

"Don't play the tricks you learned in this kind of drama here, get up and speak!"

After being reprimanded by Wang Tong, Bai Wu stood up. Wang Tong rubbed the corners of his eyebrows with his hand, and asked directly:
"Do you know how many guns, guns, and warships the Spanish bastards in Luzon have?"

Bai Wu looked ignorant, but at least he realized that the "Spanish bastard" was talking about a local ghost, and replied hesitantly:

"Those ghosts have about three thousand people, Pao"

Wang Tong sighed, interrupted Bai Wu who couldn't continue, waved his hand and said:

"Go down and rest first, you have nowhere to go now, so just do things here first."

Hearing what Wang Tong said, Bai Wu was very anxious, left his seat, knelt down again, kowtowed and said:
"Grandpa, tens of thousands of Han people died with nothing to rest in peace, now only the Duke can make decisions in Ming Dynasty, Lord"

"You only went to see Chen Lin, and then you came to see me. Daming, there are so many people you haven't met. How can you say that I can call the shots? Besides, Luzon is across the ocean. You don't know there are people there. How many people, how many guns, how many cannons, how many ships, let me avenge you, is it to let me go to die?"

Wang Tong spoke quickly and urgently, but Bai Wu was stunned. He was already full of hatred in his head, and the other party felt that he didn't want to help when he made excuses, but when he said this, he poured cold water on his head. He calmed down all of a sudden, but at the same time he became more confident. Since Wang Tong said so, he must be taken care of.

Thinking of this, Bai Wu couldn't help shedding tears again, kowtowed on the ground a few more times, and said in a hissing voice:
"The younger one can do whatever the father-in-law arranges. Please don't worry, the father-in-law. The life of the younger one is no longer my own, but the father-in-law's."

***************
"What do you think of the Spaniard's fighting power?"

Only Sha Dacheng can answer this question in the mansion. Back then, the Sanshui League's forces spread all over the ocean, and Luzon had also been there.

What to do here, Sha Dongning will definitely inform in advance, Sha Dacheng also had a draft in his stomach, and said after pondering:
"Your Majesty's Huwei army was trained according to the regulations of the Spaniards, right?"

"It's Daming's, not my lord's. You have good eyesight, and you can tell what kind of drills this is using. Hans and his crew have put in a lot of effort, and they are indeed training soldiers according to the methods of foreigners."

Hearing Wang Tong's answer, Sha Dacheng nodded and said:
"When I first saw the training of the Huwei Army, I saw that the spears, firecrackers, and even the armor were somewhat familiar. It's not that they are similar to Fangui's side, but they are very similar in root. Luzon's side I have seen Fangui fighting once before. Five hundred Fangui and more than a hundred firecrackers won a complete victory against nearly [-] rebellious natives. They are really strong soldiers. The aborigines have been washed clean for several times of rebellion. They worship those ghosts as gods and dare not violate them in the slightest. It’s another battle to fight the old one, so it should be stronger.”

Although Sha Dacheng is just a sea lord, he may have such a status, so he speaks with a sense of proportion. Wang Tong also understands the unfinished meaning of his words. The Spanish infantry should be comparable to the Huwei army.

"As for the warships, the Lord can rest assured. Counting all the warships and merchant ships parked in the two ports of Manila, there are only three or four ships that can catch up with the Lord's ten sea ships. After all, Fangui's ships are for cargo trade. Yes, it is impossible to stop for a long time in Manila."

The so-called ten sea warships refer to Wang Tong's Dinghai and other ten gunboats, which are indeed the largest warships on the eastern sea, and Wang Tong happened to have a big tree from outside the pass.

In this era, the Dutch brought three armed merchant ships of about [-] tons, the Portuguese and the Spaniards each had two, and the rest were armed merchant ships with a tonnage far below this level. In fact, there were already [-] ships in Europe at this time Large ships over a thousand tons have been built, but these ships never leave Europe.

Wang Tong nodded, and Sha Dacheng's expression became more serious when he said this, and he said:
"Fangui is in Luzon, but it is just occupying Manila. But although Luzon is an archipelago, the real good port hub is Manila. All the goods in and out pass through here. If you grasp this port, Fangui can go there by boat. To govern and deploy to the Luzon Islands, the natives did not dare to act rashly, and with the convenience of sea transportation, more than a thousand strong soldiers of Fangui can move calmly and defeat the enemies who are several times or even ten times their size. In fact, the Han people in Luzon also gathered Thousands of men went to fight Manila, but the ghosts used this method to steal the way, and they were defeated. Because of this, the ghosts put a lot of effort into managing Manila. There were no big ships in Nangang, so they placed them there. I set up a small military camp, but in Beigang, all the fan ghosts live in one big camp. The big camp is facing the sea, and in the center is a stone castle. The stone castle is connected to the stone wall near the sea. There are six forts on the stone wall. According to the regulations of our Huwei army, they are all twelve-pound cannons, and the stone fortresses are all built with strips of stone. When they were built according to the regulations of Fangui, many natives died."

At the end, Sha Dacheng cupped his hands and added:
"The subordinates used to go to Zhejiang to go directly to the Japanese country, and the brothers who joined forces with them went to Nanyang more often. Now those who stay in Tianjin stay in Tianjin and settle down. There are not many old brothers who have been there. I have asked carefully, and now I am here to repay the Lord, but the military situation is important, and everything must be seen on the spot before being sure."

"It's already very good to know so much. Fanbing and ships are trivial matters, but the fortress and fort are the trouble!"

Forts are the nightmare of battleships. I don’t know if there are such words now, but compared with the forts on land, today’s wooden battleships are too fragile.

Shooting at each other, the naval guns cannot guarantee the accuracy due to the ups and downs of the water surface, but the artillery of the fort does not have to worry about this, and the defense of the wooden hull and the fort made of earth and rocks is also incomparable.

Moreover, this is the Spanish fortress. In this era, the use of firearms by European whites far exceeds that of the East. Therefore, the cannons on the Manila fortress are not there to scare people, but are actually deterrent. Sharp weapon, this is indeed a problem.

There are quite a few ships passing through Luzon in Songjiang Prefecture, and Wang Tong also knows that apart from the two natural good ports in the south and north of Manila, there are no ports in the rest of the country. You can't expect any basic construction in a place that is almost primitive. Not to mention the roads.

Under such circumstances, if you want to enter and exit Luzon, you can only pass through these two ports.
**************
Bai Wu stayed in Songjiang Mansion. He was still in good health when he was in Nanyang. Flying all the way across the sea and heading north hurt his vitality. Fortunately, Wang Tong ordered him to take care of him up and down, and his body was also slow. Slow to recover.

He had sailed across the sea in Nanyang, and there were places where he could be used in the opening of the port. Bai Wu was assigned to work as a servant on the pier, inspecting ships and inspecting goods, and collecting taxes.

After seeing the gunboats docked at the pier, Bai Wu became more confident about revenge. After being questioned by Wang Tong once, he also knew that he couldn't be eager, so he could only keep the hatred in his heart and work hard.

But it had been less than two months since Bai Wu had settled down, but Wang Tong called him over again. After entering the door, he greeted him and saluted him. Wang Tong said directly:
"Do you know that now Luzon is recruiting the people of Ming Dynasty again?"

Ignoring Bai Wu's reaction, Wang Tong sneered and continued:

"Natives are not as good as monkeys. Those white pig bastards want someone to farm land, someone to sell goods, and they still have to rely on the people of Daming. They just don't know how long it will take for the good people of Da Ming to pass by before they will kill them again. "

Bai Wu gritted his teeth tightly, but didn't know how to answer the conversation. At this moment, he heard Wang Tong ask:
"Do you dare to go back?"
