Chapter 1175 Action
"Oh..." Luo Xin sighed and murmured in a low voice: "I just don't know what the outcome of Gao Gong will end when the commercial tax is fully improved."
The speed of encirclement and suppressing Japanese pirates on the sea was very fast. Luo Sheng knew very well about the sailing routes and nests of those Japanese pirates, because Luo Sheng had already arranged spies among the Japanese pirates. Moreover, Luo Sheng's navy can be said to be the most powerful in the world today. With the cooperation of the Ming navy, Luo Sheng did not have to use all his strength at all. He just dispatched one-quarter of the Chinese navy, and it took only three months to seize all the Japanese pirates on the sea.
At this moment, the envoys of Luzon finally realized that the Ming Dynasty could not send a navy to help them. At this time, they also realized that Luo Sheng was powerful. Not only did they destroy Japan, but they also took only three months to destroy the Japanese pirates on the sea. If Luo Sheng was willing to help them, Luzon would be without danger.
However, they also knew that once Luo Sheng was invited to come, they would no longer be the king of Luzon. Because the former king of Ryukyu came here and told him clearly that Luo Sheng could help them, but they must surrender to China and become part of China. Of course, he was also the king of Luzon and enjoyed glory and wealth. But this king of Luzon is no longer the king of Luzon he is now.
He did not want to give up his current status, but he knew that this was just his fantasy. Franchis had landed, and Luzon had lost one-third of his territory. If this continued, he would completely lose Luzon. Even if he was not killed by Franchis, he would become a puppet of Franchis and a dog. It would be better to join Luo Sheng. According to the King of Ryukyu, he is now living in China very happily. Not only has wealth, but also has a certain right to speak. In this way, the King of Luzon no longer hesitated, and he could not hesitate. If he hesitated, he could only be a dog of Franchis and a dog that would lose his life at any time.
Luo Sheng received a letter from King Luzon surrender, and immediately the navy that had long been hiding near Luzon entered the port of Luzon. With lightning speed, he surrounded the Franchise ships anchored at the port, either wiped out the Franchise people or captured them, confiscated the Franchise ships, and then began to land, raided the Franchise's retreat.
When the news was sent to Luo Xin, Luo Xin was not worried about Luo Sheng and the others. With the current technological level of China, it is definitely the most advanced on the earth. Not to mention artillery, the breeched breeched gun used by China now is the most advanced in the world today. Whether it is Spain or Franchis, it is still the breeched gun. Moreover, China now has grenades. If it is at sea, although China has advantages, it may not have an absolute advantage. Because there are too many factors that cannot be determined by naval warfare. However, on land, China's force can definitely destroy the Franchised aircraft.
As for the attitude of the Ming Dynasty to subdue Luzon and turn Luzon into a province of China, Luo Xin was not worried at all. Luzon was only a vassal state of the Ming Dynasty, not the prefecture of the Ming Dynasty. Moreover, the Chinese state joined forces with the Ming Navy to wipe out the pirates this time, and the Ming Dynasty would not easily offend China, which was strong at sea.
Therefore, Luo Xin no longer cared about Luzon. He began to start the Maritime Affairs Office again.
Without the Japanese pirates at sea, the matter of restoring the Maritime Bureau was simple. Everything was ready in the Ming Dynasty, and all the merchants agreed to the tax of one in ten. And there was a large amount of goods long ago, waiting for the Maritime Bureau to open. What they need to do now is wait and wait for the arrival of merchants from the vassal states.
Where are those vassal merchants?
In fact, many merchants from the vassal states were near the Daming sea, some were in Luzon, some were in Malacca and other places. They were also in contact with each other over the years, and in the past two years, there have been caravans coming here from Europe. They were blocked by Japanese pirates, which is equivalent to blocking their wealth. Why did they arrive here thousands of miles for?
Just to make a fortune!
But the Japanese pirates stood in front of them, and they also united to wipe out the Japanese pirates. And once they wiped out the Japanese pirates, their power would be huge at that time, and they could negotiate with the Ming Dynasty and reprice, which had endless benefits. Franz attacked Luzon, thinking of establishing a base there and establishing a place where their alliances were established. Before that, they had fought with the Japanese pirates, but although they were not destroyed by the Japanese pirates, they did not destroy the Japanese pirates. They only thought that after occupying Luzon, they would wait for more European merchant groups to arrive and fight with the Japanese pirates again when their strength became greater. Even if they did not destroy the Japanese pirates, as long as they could reach an agreement with the Japanese pirates.
but……
What they did not expect was that before they could start attacking Luzon, the famous rising star of the Chinese Kingdom and the Ming Navy joined forces to clear the Japanese pirates.
What they didn't expect was that before they could completely occupy Luzon, the Chinese Kingdom began to attack them in Luzon at the request of Luzon.
Moreover, they used blitzkrieg tactics, and before they could react, they occupied the port and snatched their ships. Then they landed and began to encircle them.
They were immediately furious, but when they fought with the people from China in Luzon, they found that they were no match for China at all.
not to mention……
The number of soldiers in China is too many than them, and the weapons are much stronger than them.
Seeing that this continued, their group of people were about to be wiped out, and they had to ask China for negotiations. What they did not expect was that China actually agreed with such an advantage.
The results obtained during the negotiations also made them overjoyed.
China has put forward several conditions.
First, they can return the seized merchant ships to various merchant groups. They do not need to pay compensation.
Second, China can ensure the safety of the waterways in Asia, which means providing protection to merchant groups in European countries, and they do not need to pay fees.
Once these two conditions were released, the merchants of the vassal states looked a little dizzy. If China gave such generous conditions, it would definitely have high requirements. China was not a philanthropist. Sure enough, China then put forward the third point.
China will enter Malacca and become the owner of Malacca. There, China will build many wharfs, and any merchant group that is parked, repaired and replenished in Malacca will have to pay.
The merchants of the vassal state had no objection to paying fees, because the fees paid by China were all within their tolerance. Moreover, why should they give you free wharves, inns and other places that others spent money and energy to build?
What they care about is ownership in Malacca.
