Chapter Forty-Five: The Master of Reading and the Master of Nobles Are Both Bad Deeds
Eight hundred true Japanese were lined up on the shore, and three hundred Folangji mercenaries were among them.
A noble man wearing silver foil tiles and hanging rabbit ear pockets and black foil tiles, sitting on the slide rod, supporting his arms diagonally, holding a military fan in his hands to play with. Two servants next to him were holding knives, and two servants were playing fans. Behind him, there were more than a dozen guards wearing Tang-like white yaks and rich rabbit ear pockets, and two light onion black tiles. There were also squids with shark leather handles, Tang-like grass pattern lacquer and lacquer. No matter how you look, they all looked like a rich man.
Next to it, a Florian man wearing a colorful beggar mercenary outfit and half-body armor looked at him with envy. He was the commander of the 300 Florian mercenary named Reinstein.
These Folang mercenaries are actually poor people from the continent. Their half-body armor is all worthless mass-produced goods. They are not much better than the Japanese swords that were used by Fusang to sell 800 citations for the Ming Dynasty to ward off evil spirits.
At this time, mercenaries in the continental region were not easy to get involved, because the nobles often lie to the debt, which made the mercenaries seem to have a high salary, but in fact, the income they earned might not be as good as that of a self-cultivated farmer, so countless mercenaries rushed to the east to make a living.
But unexpectedly, in the Ming Dynasty, which was known as a country of etiquette, those scholars actually had the same virtue as the nobles in the continental region and liked to pay responsibilities.
Why was Mr. Zhu Wan, who was governor of Zhejiang and Fujian, sent by the court? The reason for this was that a man named Pereira, a Folang Ji, borrowed a large sum of silver to someone [Yuyao Xie Family], probably wanted to do business together, but the Xie Family of Yuyao took the silver and turned against him. Pereira had to gather a group of fellow villagers [armed wages] and wiped out the family. In other words, this Japanese pirate actually not only refers to the Fusang people, but also those who make trouble on the coast are called Japanese pirates.
Some people say that the name of the Xie family in Yuyao is the famous Xie Ge home. Of course, the Xie family has denied it for five hundred years. The history books only say that the Xie family in Yuyao is named? Did you name it? Did you name it? You are innocent and you are very damn.
In short, because some local gentry were destroyed, public opinion was in an uproar, saying that [Japanese pirates rampantly and the coastal people suffered]. The so-called public opinion, in the Ming Dynasty, naturally refers to scholars and officials. The people should not talk to themselves and think that they were talking about themselves. Under this public opinion, the court naturally shook, so Zhu Wan was sent to Zhejiang to suppress the Japanese.
The Japanese pirates are actually clearly stated in history books. [The market is withdrawn, and the traitors in the coastal coastal areas will benefit. In the early market, the merchants were still in charge of the ban, and then they moved the noble officials and the families of the people who were in abducted by the ban. The more they were forced to do so. If they were in a hurry, they would scare them with danger, or they would like to speak with kind words, saying that I would never let them down. If the Japanese lost their treasures, they would not be able to return. They were already very hated. To put it bluntly, the Ming merchants who were used to arrears of goods colluded with major bureaucrats and defrauded Fusang and Folangji merchants. These foreign merchants then colluded with the Ming ambitious people such as Xu Dong and Wang Zhi.
In a word, all maritime merchants in the coastal areas of the Ming Dynasty, whether they are from the Ming Dynasty or from Fusang, or even the Folangji people who come from thousands of miles away, can actually be called Japanese pirates.
And the Folang Jiren was not very successful among the Japanese pirates.
Ryanstein is a typical example. As a Portuguese rusty, he fought for noble men since he was thirteen. After fighting for twenty years, he had not saved up the money to marry a wife. Then he became cruel and gathered a group of poor fellow villagers to go to the east to find gold.
As a result, this guy had a bad life. From Fusang to the Ming Dynasty, he learned the Ming Dynasty's Mandarin in a few years, but he still didn't make any money. Later, he heard that the two brigs and three masts were crossing the bush. The foolish people gave a boat with a leaf, sent a melon and a bottle, and made a fortune. They tamed the boy of three feet. They also knew that Shuangyu was a parent of food and clothing. So they took their people to Shuangyu. But as soon as they arrived at Shuangyu Island, they had not had time to take the job, Zhudutang broke Shuangyu Island and even burned the church on the island. He fought for twenty years and was considered an old military stick. When he saw that it was not good, he took his fellow villagers to steal a few boats and ran away.
Because Shuangyu Island has become a climate, after Zhu Wan defeated Shuangyu, for several consecutive days, those maritime merchants who did not know that Shuangyu had been destroyed still ran to Shuangyu. [More than a thousand boats on the sea] ended up scaring Zhu Wan, and retreated to the shore to start [Severely implement the sea ban], arresting more than a hundred local merchants who had sex with Japanese pirates [Zhu Li Jue]. At this time, they should start to quarrel with local gentry.
It was at this time that Reinstein met the red seal ship from Fusang. The nobles of Fusang saw that their Folangian had half-body armor, so they gave some gold. Reinstein also knew that the gold-silver ratio of Fusang Island was 1 to 4, so although the nobles gave less gold, they could still make do with him, so they decided to hang out with the nobles of Fusang first.
As for whether to be embarrassed by the Fusang people, the missionaries of this era say the Fusang warriors [they may be the most martial and warlike among the whites]. As for the Ming people, the missionaries described it as [white with long black hair]. If there is a master of the Ming Kingdom willing to pay the money, they are also willing.
He stood there for a lot of psychological activities, and envied those around the noble people very much. He had no other reason and had money. He sighed in his heart, and there was no real financial support father to take care of him.
At this time, a rabbit with a solid-shaped ear-shaped rabbit in front of the front (simple explanation: the iron ground means the texture is iron. If it is iron ground, it means that it is refined iron, the tendons are ridge-shaped, and the thirty-two rooms means there are thirty-two edges. If it is painted, it means that it has painted paint, black paint, black paint, and gold foil, which means that it is gold-shaped, and the solid-shaped ear is a circle. The rabbit's ear stands in front of the hat, which means that two rabbit ears are erected in front of the hat. If Namo Amitabha is erected in front of it, it is called the six-character name.). The general wearing two black powers quickly ran over and knelt on one knee in front of the nobleman, "Ye Fangxi..." and presented the monocular telescope with both hands.
The noble man took it with one hand and looked in front of him.
"Ryanstein." The nobleman spoke the official words of Nanzhili very standard, but his pronunciation was a bit strange. Ryanstein hurried forward, "Sir, Ryanstein is willing to be the sword in your hand."
When the noble man heard his flattery, he couldn't help laughing. The laughter came from his face armor, first crisp, then hoarse, and Ryanstein pretended not to hear it.
"Very good, Ryanstein, for this battle, you should not rush forward as a striker, act like a tricycle, and we will retreat back to the ship, and there is no need to take the chestnut from the fire for Li Ballow and the others." The nobleman gave a clever plan.
Ryanstein was stunned at first, then nodded, "I understand, please don't worry, sir."
The noble man handed over the military fan in his hand, "Go!"
Ryanstein took the military fan, walked to the front of the formation, shouting loudly, "Listen to my orders and open the medicine pool." A standard Nanzhili official language, the so-called "singing a mountain song to sing which mountain song to go to. When the Ming Dynasty, I will definitely be given two words. Get out of here, the strong culture is so awesome.
"Return the gunpowder... Close the medicine pool... Turn the gun to the left... The ammunition is in the chamber... Take the push rod... Push it all... Pull the push rod... Hold the gun... (Note: Refer to the French Army Regulations)"
With a series of complex slogans, a banner of [Yangzhou Anti-Japanese War Township Warrior] appeared ahead.
"Preparation." Reinstein held up the military fan.
