Chapter 46 The Origin of the Ming West India Company

Renn finally met Han Xiufen, the legendary female pirate.

In his impression, Han Xiufen was a vulgar pirate, a robber, and a very barbaric person.

Because, in the war with Han Xiufen over the years, he had heard more than once that this female pirate killed people. He even heard that this female pirate likes tall and strong men the most. As long as she is a tall prisoner, no one can escape her claws.

She has countless faces and killed countless faces, and is the most terrifying banshee on the sea.

However, when he walked into Han Xiufen's study, the one who appeared in front of him was a tall and strong woman. Her face was as dark as the color of the sun, but it was very different from the skin color of those black people. This should have been brought to her by Dahai.

Her figure is tall and plump like the goddess described by Hans Holbein, but she has more majesty than the goddess.

Her hair was tied up high, with a golden pendant on it, she even wore a pair of glasses, a fluent Bavarian accent that made Renbe feel comfortable.

Her long and exquisite silk robe was very decent, and the mountains of books were piled up around her, which made Ren confirm that he was a true oriental aristocrat when he met Han Xiufen.

Beside her were two men in good condition, with their smiles very warm, but their fair faces were also dyed bronzed by the sun on the sea.

One of them he knew was the most shameless, vicious and dedicated official of the officials he had ever met. In Renn's eyes, this was a hyena covered in human skin.

Another person named Chuanli Zhang, is also a famous figure and also has his own legend on the sea.

Now, these two people seem extremely humble in front of Han Xiufen, like two hyenas under a female lion, attentive and flattering.

"Earl Rennes, sit down first and taste the tea I brought from my motherland. It should be a good thing."

Han Xiufen sat at the top of a long table. Her voice was not loud, but Renn could hear it clearly.

"Lisenne said that Count Jung has announced the removal of my Count. Now, in front of you is only an old man named Rennes Nicklaus, who cannot afford to be a general's kind hospitality."

Han Xiufen ignored Ren's humble words and slowly poured out a cup of golden tea from the teapot. He pushed it lightly, and the cup of tea that had been filled with more than half of it slid into Ren's front, unbiased.

"In my Ming Dynasty, we respect the strong, the wise, and the good. As long as we have these qualities, even a farmer will be a noble person in our eyes.

And Mr. Renn is a strong and wise man, and that is why I invite you to share the best tea I snatched from His Majesty.”

Renn held the teacup in both hands, took a sip of the tea, put it down and said, "Excellent taste."

Han Xiufen smiled and said, "Drinking this kind of tea requires a calm mood. It's a waste of drinking tea like this."

Ren smiled and said, "I am the general's prisoner, so naturally I dare not be unreasonable in front of the general."

Han Xiufen frowned and looked at Zhang Chuanli and said, "I remember Mr. Renne had paid enough ransom?"

Zhang Chuanli bowed and said, "When the general says, Mr. Renne is already a free man. Now he and his five servants live in my Ming Dynasty, and no one interferes with his freedom."

When Renn heard Zhang Chuanli say this, he stood up and said, "Since that's the case, can I get a ship from the general? Even if I can redeem my expenses."

Han Xiufen smiled and said, "Where is Mr. Renn going?"

Renn sighed and said, "I hope to drive this ship back to my hometown in Bavaria, return to my pasture, raise pigs, raise some sheep, and quietly spend this life."

Han Xiufen smiled and said, "I think Leonie has told Mr., your title has been deprived and all your shares in the Netherlands East India Company have been embezzled by the remaining twelve shareholders.

At the same time, I also heard that your two sons had announced that you had died in battle as soon as the news of your defeat came back to Bavaria. So, what is your identity to go back?

Will those shareholders allow them to live and appear before them first?”

Renn smiled and said, "I was born and raised here. They can take away my title and my property, but they cannot take away my citizenship."

Liu Mingliang smiled and said, "You may not know yet that the Nassau family in Orange has designated you as a traitor, and even after announcing your death, they still designated you as a traitor."

We were very surprised to hear this news even as your enemies.

Because we know how hard and hard we have experienced in the battle with you, perhaps those in the Netherlands think that I, Daming, is a weak boss."

Renn spread his hands and said, "It seems that I have nothing now. Fortunately, I have a daughter who has become a naval colonel in the Ming Dynasty. Perhaps my daughter is willing to give his elderly and incompetent father a bite of food."

Han Xiufen smiled. She was impatient with this idiot behavior of tempting and testing. Seeing that Ren had shown some obedience, she spread her hands and said, "Okay, the reason why I said so much is to give Mr. Ren a chance to revenge."

Renn smiled and said, "My listening seriously."

Han Xiufen said: "Ming Ming believes that when dividing India, we must not be missing one of our shares, and Mr. Ren is the specific candidate who controls these shares for me, Ming Ming."

Renn was surprised and held the table and looked at Han Xiufen and said, "I don't think it's Jung or Raymond, they will allow such things to happen."

Han Xiufen said: "After I go out to sea, Jung will disappear from the sea. As for Raymond, he should have died in battle at this time."

Renn was not surprised at what Han Xiufen said. His sixty-seven warships were damaged by the Ming Navy in the Battle of Java, including five second-class battleships he worked hard to manage.

However, the losses of the Ming Navy were minimal. The cost of the sixteen schooners seemed to be high. In fact, in the face of the results of the five second-class battleships, they can be completely ignored.

Especially the iron-armored ships of the Ming Dynasty, which not only had fierce firepower, but also strong. Under the fierce artillery bombardment of the battleships, they resisted the attack, and also destroyed more than one battleship in close combat.

The most important thing is that the artillery of the Ming Kingdom fired extremely powerful flowering bullets, and unlike their battleships, they could only use solid bullets. After being attacked by some heavy artillery, they could still persist.

And as long as their battleship is hit by a flowering bullet, it will be a disaster.

Therefore, he was not optimistic about Rong Ge, a noble young man who was arrogant. He could even imagine what the arrogant Rong Ge would end after meeting the powerful Ming fleet.

As for Raymond, this guy is just an old fox. It is difficult to catch or kill him. This guy has been staying on West Island and is protected by a powerful fleet. It is difficult for Han Xiufen to kill him.

Seeing that Rennes was silent, Han Xiufen smiled and stood up and said, "Mr. Rennes can think more about it. After the matter in the Indian Ocean is revealed, we will discuss it."

Renn immediately said firmly: "It is my honor to be able to serve the Ming Empire. Since the general thinks Renn is of some use, then we might as well find some time to talk about the details.

And I should also study the complicated scenes in India and think carefully about where to start."

Han Xiufen smiled and said, "Since that's the case, I'm waiting for my husband's plan. I believe this plan will be very exciting."

Ren also smiled and bowed to Han Xiufen, then said goodbye and left Han Xiufen's study. Here, he could not think carefully and thoughtfully.

Watching Renn leave, Zhang Chuanli sneered: "Saying so much, don't you have to submit?"

Han Xiufen resisted the urge to slap this guy, squinted his eyes and said, "It's true that he is a hero. Just this decision is not comparable to you two idiots."

Liu Mingliang said in surprise: "Will he be smarter than the two of us?"

Han Xiufen said angrily: "Get out."

Yunwen charges at the front, and since the assault boat docked, he has been rushing at the front. He feels that the blood in his chest is about to explode and burn out from his blood vessels.

West Island in front of us has become a sea of ​​fire.

While dealing with the British fleet, Lai Guorao's fleet could also use a force to pour shells into the island.

The musket bullets kept making harsh sounds in front of him and behind him, and some of them would fall at his feet, and dust flowers kept splashing on the ground.

With a "boom", Yun Wen was stunned for a moment. At this moment, a pair of thick arms hugged him and rolled towards the side, while the upper body of a Yun clan who was originally following him suddenly disappeared, leaving only one butt. He fell strangely to the ground with his legs.

"Drain the artillery position."

A familiar voice sounded in Yunwen's ears. Yunwen shivered and immediately shouted: "Yunzhen, Yunzhen, cannon shooting, cannon shooting."

After a sound of a new short cannon fired from behind him, Yunwen jumped out of the hidden place, waved his long sword and pointed at the front, saying, "Charge!"

Lao Zhou hugged Yunwen's waist and threw him down, and said sadly: "Young Master, that's enough, that's enough, you're brave enough."

Yun Wen tore Lao Zhou's hands desperately and said, "Get out of your mother's egg, after the artillery bombardment begins, the infantry will charge!"

Old Zhou suddenly let go of Yunwen, jumped up and held the rifle in front of Yunwen, shouting: "Run..."
