Chapter 243 Li Gui
"And now the appearance of the Luzon Ming court has made these red-haired ghosts no longer dare to act rashly. Even though the naval warships of the Luzon Ming court cannot compete with the Red-haired ghosts' warships, they are always a huge deterrent. This is also the reason why the Red-haired ghosts in the South China Sea dare not touch the Chinese merchants again." Zeng Qilu said.
"So, you asked me to meet the governor, in fact, to help the Ming court obtain a channel for trade with the Dutch, and to use the Ming court as the protective umbrella for Chinese merchants in Batavia." Zhao Tianming said with a smile.
"Yes, today you four seas business companies have established a shopping mall in Batavia. If the Dutch people in Batavia dare to touch the Chinese merchants in the city, they must think about whether the naval warships of the Luzon Ming army will come to Batavia Port." Zeng Qilu said.
"Since you and other Chinese merchants want to use the power of the Ming court to protect themselves, why not surrender to the Ming Dynasty?" Zhao Tianming also understood the meaning of these Batavian Chinese merchants and couldn't help but say angrily.
"We are just businessmen." Zeng Qilu said expressionlessly.
"But don't you want to go back to the Ming Dynasty's hometown?" Zhao Tianming shouted.
Zeng Qilu's whole body trembled, and his turbid eyes suddenly became clear.
Midi Castle
Since the officials in Guangnan discussed, they decided to appease the Ming people in the Midi area of Dongpu, so they sent envoys to Dongpu.
At this time, Chen Shangchuan, Yang Yandi and others had already followed the Fubo Town Navy to Luzon.
Dongpu is now managed by the general Chen Anping.
The Guangnan envoy wanted to go to Nongnai City, but on the way, Chen Shangchuan had already set out for Luzon. After Chen Anping was in charge of Nongnai City, he immediately decided to go to Midi.
After all, the last time Guangnan sent an envoy to Dongpu to visit Mingren in Dongpu, it was because Chen Anping refused. The envoy of Guangnan who had been rejected once naturally would not stay for a long time but went to Meidi.
When the Guangnan envoy headed south along the Jiulong River to Meidi, he was accidentally captured by the officers and soldiers of the left and right battalions who were deployed here.
"Sir, the person who came is called the envoy of Guangnan. When he came to Meidi, he asked to meet Lord Yang Yandi." The generals of the left and right camps headed towards Huang Jindao.
"Encil of Guangnan, what are they doing here?" Huang Jin looked at the general with a complicated expression.
"Who else knows about this?" Huang Jin asked.
"It was captured by a team of battalions patrolling along the river. After learning about their identities, the banner officer of the team leader personally escorted to Meidicheng." said the left and right battalion general.
"Don't let this matter be made public in advance, let the envoys of Guangnan come to see me." Huang Jin said.
"I understand." The left and right battalion general was also Huang Jin's confidant, so he quickly took the order.
Soon, Guangnan envoy Li Gui, met Huang Jin in the military tent of the left and right camps.
"The villain Li Gui has seen General Huang Jin." After seeing Huang Jin, the envoy of Guangnan knelt down and bowed.
"What, you recognize me." Huang Jin was stunned when he saw this.
"I don't know anything. I was originally an official in Tuoyan. General Yang Yandi and the Lord led thousands of royal divisions to Tuoyan Port and asked our Lord to take them in Guangnan. I personally received the two generals." Li Gui said with a smile.
"Oh, it's you." Huang Jin then remembered that Yang Yandi and Chen Shangchuan led thousands of troops and hundreds of warships to Guangnan Tuoyan Port and asked Guangnan Ruan Master to take in. At that time, the huge navy scared the officials of Tuoyan Port in panic.
"It has been ten days since Lord Yang Yandi and General Chen Shangchuan of Dongpu. If you come to persuade Lord Yang Yandi, it will be unfortunately too late." Huang Jin looked at the Guangnan envoy in front of him with anger. He didn't come early or late, but he came at this time.
Now that Midiming people have surrendered to the Luzon Ming court, what's the use of sending envoys to come in Guangnan?
"It's a pity. I wanted to make Lord Yang Yandi the Governor of Meidi, but it's a pity." Li Gui looked disappointed.
"What, Governor." Huang Jin jumped up suddenly and stared at Li Gui.
"I'm not hiding it to my parents. In fact, when Lord Ruan learned that the Ming Dynasty in Luzon was intending to recruit Lord Yang Yandi, he immediately ordered the villain to go to Meidi."
"He said that people value love and friendship. On that day, Yang Yandi and General Huang Jin personally led a large army to Guangnan to ask for protection from the monarch and ministers of Guangnan. We felt that they were not loyal to the Qing Dynasty and signaled that they would go to Shuitian La, a fertile field of thousands of miles, so that the Ming people could rest and recuperate. Now the Ming court in Luzon tried to annex Meidi in Dongpu, and the two generals Yang and Huang would definitely refuse, so they sent villains to Jiafeng generals." Li Gui said.
After hearing this, Huang Jin could only sigh heavily.
"What a pity, General Yang refused to listen to our soldiers and insisted on surrendering the Ming people in Luzon. We waited for thousands of soldiers to fight here for several years before taking down the Meidi area. The Ming people in Luzon actually tried to annex the foundation that our Meidi soldiers had worked hard to build. We hate it." Huang Jin gritted his teeth and said with a wide glare.
"When I came, I heard that Xiao Wu gave tens of thousands of stones of grain to the people of Dongpu Ming whom Xiao Wu gave to him, but Meidi Ming did not get anything. Not only that, Xiao Wu also ordered Meidi to raise three thousand troops to attack firewood sticks, and also asked Meidi to allocate 10,000 stones of military rations to supply the Nash Division." General Li Gui told the news in detail.
"Hmph, Xiao Wu is so bullying." Huang Jin punched the desk.
Since Yang Yandi followed Duke Li to Luzon, Xiao Wu actually issued more than ten orders to Midi in just ten days.
Either order the order to collect 30,000 stones of grain and grass from Meidi to reinforce Dongpu, or order the soldiers from various townships to gather to prepare to attack the firewood sticks, which made the people of Meidi Ming complain.
Huang Jin was originally the deputy general of Liwu Town. This time, Yang Yandi went to Luzon to meet the governor, and was worried that the power would fall into Xiao Wu's hands, so he handed over Meidi to Huang Jin and Xue Wenjing to manage.
However, Xue Wenjing was in a sensation with Xiao Wu, which made him restrained everywhere.
"This Meidi was originally killed by the general and the Ming soldiers with blood. What's the matter with Xiao Wu and the Ming court of Luzon? General Yang Yandi actually gave up land for the position of general." Li Gui shook his head and sighed.
"If I had known today, I would have killed the Minghai merchants directly. In this way, we could stand on Meidi without being angry with the Luzon Ming court." Huang Jin said.
"Sir, this Meidi is not his or her, Yang Yandi or Xiao Wu. If it weren't for the death to fight with the officers and soldiers of the left and right battalions of Liwu Town, could they take Meidi from the Zhenlafan people?"
Li Gui looked at Huang Jin and continued, "Now Yang Yandi actually handed over Midi to his own interests, and where will the generals of Midi Akira?"
"Although I am from Guangnan, I am still upholding for the adults!" Li Gui looked at Huang Jin with a sad and angry look on his face.
Huang Jin's face gradually calmed down, and Li Gui's words gradually ignited the anger in his heart.
"Li Yong followed Yang Yandi to Luzon to accept the reward of the Ming court, and Xue Wenjing also followed Xiao Wu's leader. On the contrary, the general led the Meidi Ming people to fight with the Zhenla people from beginning to end to protect Meidi, but if the Ming court really takes over Meidi in the future..." Li Gui said this, but instead looked at Huang Jin with a meaningful look.
