Chapter 391 Eliminate "thieves" for the country

"The East India Company has to pay this big pirate protection money every year." Xiao Chuan touched his head and said helplessly, William shook his head and said, "Sure enough! Your Majesty, let's retreat, even if the Saint Trinidad is extremely powerful, we can resist The siege of [-] warships, especially these friends of mine don’t seem very powerful!” He looked outside and said, “That kind of small fireboat is really troublesome!”

"Don't worry, we have rockets, a lot of rockets! British rockets, every ship is equipped with that kind of rockets." Xiao Chuan said with a smile, William was relieved, said: "British rockets, they have 200 There were British rockets many years ago?" Wang Zhe looked from a distance in disbelief.

"Uh, you know, that thing was originally spread to India by people here, and then to Europe from India." Xiao Chuan said, and William said with a sigh of relief: "Well, but their boats are still very troublesome, we should find some Help, it's a good idea to spend money to hire some pirates!"

"Helper is there," Xiao Chuan said, thinking of his Viking subordinates, he just smiled. It was much easier for the two forces to get together and deal with Zheng Zhilong. Xiao Chuan picked up the red wine on the table and looked at it curiously. Asked: "Can you brew this stuff?"

"Red wine, haha, this is my housekeeping skill." William smiled and said, "I still have the secret method of making red wine that my grandfather passed on to me." Xiao Chuan heaved a sigh of relief, and another way to make money appeared Yes, selling red wine, people like fresh things. Although red wine doesn't taste very good, it tastes novel.

"It's so strange." Mrs. Chu picked up the red wine on the table strangely, and William smiled and said, "Ma'am, that's called red wine. I don't think you guys have ever drank it. This cork needs this thing to pull it out." .”

Mrs. Chu squeezed hard, and the mouth of the bottle broke open. He squeezed the cork and changed its shape. William swallowed deeply and did not speak. Mrs. Chu took a sip and immediately spat it out, frowning. Said, "It's so hard to drink, so bitter?"

"Madam, this is not how you drink red wine. This is how you drink fresh water." William walked over and looked at the red wine on the ground with great distress and said, "This is my last bottle of red wine."

"I have a large piece of land on the shore, and you can brew countless red wines on it in the future," Xiao Chuan said, and William's face brightened.He took William off the ship and came to the lucky boat nearby. William also followed him. He followed Xiaochuan. His unique appearance and captain's clothes attracted the attention of many Ming sailors. He touched He must be a little embarrassed and said: "Your Majesty, why do I feel like a monkey?"

Xiao Chuan smiled helplessly, and Qi Mu walked over and took a look at William and said, "This Xiyi looks really strange. Wearing this suit, I'm afraid the military discipline is lax!" He thought that this man could not speak Chinese, He just said it directly, with a very kind expression when he said it, which reminded Xiao Chuan of a roommate he once saw who used dialect to call people stupid, and when he said you were stupid, his expression was very kind , making him think that what he said was something nice.

"You Tatar? I am the captain of the most powerful flagship of the Spanish Armada! Please don't call me Xiyi." William said angrily, except for his own command knife, all the sailors laughed, Qi Mu He laughed even louder and said, "Spain? I've never heard of it. I always thought that there was only France in the west!"

'Francophone?Where?" William had a strange expression on his face. He didn't understand where the Francophone he was talking about, and said, "I am also a well-informed sailor, but I have never heard of this Francophone." He said so .

"Haven't you heard of Franz?" Qi Mu said strangely, and Xiao Chuan said, "It's the Ottoman Empire." Hearing this voice, William heard the voice, relying on the same pronunciation of the words, it was the same. Said: "I said why this firearm looks familiar!" He said, then continued to look aside, saw the rocket on the side of Huayou on the launch frame of the rocket and said, "Isn't this a British rocket? It is exactly the same! It turns out that the British rocket It was passed from here!" He actually said.

"What British rocket, Go! This is Daming's rocket, which country is England barbarian?" Qi Mu immediately laughed.

"It's William, not Go. Please remember the name of the great Spanish navy captain. This may be something you will be proud of in the future." William spoke solemnly, with an extremely serious tone.

Everyone laughed, and Xiao Chuan also laughed helplessly. Such a powerful flagship, with the power of his lucky ship and rockets, as well as Viking pirates, will definitely give Zheng Zhilong's fleet a good time. Fortunately, at that time, I can learn from him in the north and collect protection fees.

*************
The crown prince, who was blown by the north wind, was upset. He no longer had the vigor he had before. Standing at the head of Nanjing City, he glanced back at Nanjing City and shook his head. The extremely wealthy and luxurious life did not give him any comfort. "Bengong, I never thought that the Donglin Party's methods are so clever!" He glanced back at the city of Nanjing and could see the prosperity of the Confucius Temple in the distance, and said, "Could it be that my hand can't reach out to Nanjing!" 'He came to Nanjing full of hope at this moment. At this moment, he is still weak and can't stretch out his hand in Nanjing. What awaits him is to disarm because he can't pay the army salary!

"Your Highness, the checkpoints we have set up to collect likin have been repeatedly attacked by the people!" The eunuch on the side shook his head and smiled wryly, "People all over the place think that the strike is our reason! People all over the country are against us!"

"This group of aristocratic families are so ruthless!" Zhu Cihong shook his head and said, "I am not reconciled, Nanjing is so prosperous, what about Yangzhou? What about other places in Jiangsu and Zhejiang? I am really unwilling to give up these places! Could it be Can the prince just hide in this Nanjing city?"

"But businessmen from all over the world are really despicable and shameless. We can't raise the butcher's knife to the students of the Jiangnan Tribute Academy and the people from all over the world, can we, Your Highness!?" The eunuch on the side said helplessly,

"But what about Qin Xiaochuan? Don't the merchants in Shandong boycott him?" The prince asked curiously, but the eunuch said, "I heard it was a pirate! That place was attacked by pirates, and merchants from all over the place who resisted him were unfortunately attacked and killed by pirates." !"

pirate? "I'm afraid the pirate's surname is Qin!" The crown prince said coldly, and the eunuch said: "Your Highness, it's not like that, then Qin Xiaochuan personally led people to kill, and I heard that he was injured, and most of these pirates are Xiyi, Qin Xiaochuan is just a Ming man, how can he control so many Xiyi?"

"Hmph, you underestimated him." The prince said, "Give me the information on the personnel of Jinyiwei in the East Factory here! Donglin Party? Since you are playing this trick, then I have to use some other means!"

"By the way, Your Highness, the head of the Jiangnan Tributary Academy of the Donglin Party is coming to you today to talk about withdrawing from various checkpoints!" said the eunuch, and the prince continued: "Let's just say that my palace is not feeling well today! I was attacked by bandits!" He said Said so.

"This?" The eunuch was surprised, and a person from outside suddenly ran over and said, "His Royal Highness, Zheng Zhilong, the commander-in-chief of Fujian, raised his troops and wanted to kill him on the grounds that the commander-in-chief of Shandong collected commercial taxes indiscriminately to shake the foundation of the country. More than 2000 warships came from Fujian." Come!"

The prince's face suddenly became strange, and he said, "Could it be a false way to attack Guo?" He thought for a while and said: "No, it is not good for him if he captures the prince!" He also wondered why he beat Qin Xiaochuan for What?One in Shandong and one in Fujian?He didn't believe that Zheng Zhilong, who was fighting pirates, would really go on an expedition to kill thieves for the country.

"How about us? General Qin heard that there is a port in Shandong!" The eunuch said worriedly, and the prince said: "The navy in the south of the Yangtze River is not allowed to move. Our boats are not the opponent's opponent! Let's see how a loach in the water compares with the one on the shore. Wang Badou!"

　I looked at the enrollment of traditional literature schools on the Internet, and when I came up, the three schools of Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism were integrated into one, and what 42 chapters of the scriptures were, it was simply demonized teaching.
