"Can I believe what the general said?" Franco stared into Xie Xuelong's eyes, as if trying to see through his soul.

"Besides believing what I say, do you have any other choice?"

Xie Xuelong asked back.

This, it seems not?

Franco sighed helplessly, and glanced at the fleet parked on the sea in the distance.

Damn, power is the truth, who will let other people's shells hit far?

"Okay! But I can only give you half of the captives! The remaining half will be handed over in ten days!" Franco turned his mind and thought of another idea.

"Impossible! If we want to stop attacking Manila, we must return all the Ming people! Immediately!"

"Not negotiable?"

"Either don't let go, or all of them! You figure it out!"

Xie Xuelong spread his hands, and his tone was extremely tough. This time he has already put himself in danger, so he might have to run again! ?

"Are you sure the general will keep his promise and no longer lead this powerful fleet to attack Manila?"

"I, Xie Xuelong, swear to the heavens that I will not lead an army to attack Manila in this life! If you violate this oath, you will die without a place to die!"

Seeing that Xie Xuelong had sworn a poisonous oath, Franco couldn't say anything more.

"There's no evidence for it. Don't you Ming people like to sign contracts? Would the general be willing to sign a contract?"

"Of course!"

"Then it's settled!"

Franco also knew that this bullshit contract was worthless, but maybe it could have the slightest binding force?Besides, I have to report to Cerezo, don't I?

The two found a pen and paper, wrote the contract in two languages, and signed their own names.

Franco read the content of the deed from beginning to end, and let out a long breath.

Promise not to attack Manila again, just this one, in exchange for the lives of thousands of insignificant people, no matter how you look at it, it is a good deal.

Then the two discussed the details of handing over the captives, and Franco sent Xie Xuelong aboard.

Watching the boat on which Xie Xuelong was riding drift away, Franco sighed.

No matter how the situation develops next, he has done his best.

In fact, he was lucky enough, if Zheng Zhilong led the fleet, regardless of whether the people were ordinary or not, he would definitely be able to follow suit.

Seeing Xie Xuelong's return, Lu Shiyu was overjoyed, and excitedly took Xie Xuelong to the Shuntian.

"Teacher! How is it? They didn't make things difficult for you, did they?" Lu Shiyan asked Xie Xuelong, looking him up and down.

"No. The matter has been negotiated, and they promised to release all the people."

"What? So straightforward? What conditions did you ask?" Lu Shiyan was a little surprised.

"Let's talk about it later." Xie Xuelong made a fool of himself.

The transshipment of the captives went smoothly, and thousands of overseas Chinese from the Ming Dynasty arrived on board the ships of the First Fleet after an hour.

Xie Xuelong also immediately ordered the fleet to leave the mouth of Manila Bay.

At this point, Franco finally breathed a sigh of relief.Send someone to send a message to Cerezo hiding on Limbones Island, waiting for his next order.

The First Fleet braved the wind and waves at sea and gradually moved away from Manila. Lu Shizhen couldn't restrain his curiosity again and asked Xie Xuelong what kind of conditions he agreed to.

"I promise them that I will never lead a fleet to attack Manila again!"

"This!!! Superintendent! Your Majesty's order is to help Zheng Zhilong take Manila quickly! If we don't attack, what will Zheng Zhilong do?"

"Shiyan, have we attacked Manila these days?" Xie Xuelong asked with a smile.

"Huh? Like, no?"

"That's it!"

"Hahaha!" Lu Shiyan laughed loudly.

They did not attack Manila, but they attacked the Spanish warships in Manila Bay.

"If the hell cannon that His Majesty gave Zheng Zhilong is enough to take Manila, whether we can fight Manila or not is secondary. We just need to contain the opponent's warship."

"Exactly what I mean! I swore a poisonous oath that I will never lead an army to attack Manila in this life. If Hell Cannon can't help Zheng Zhilong take Manila down, then you will lead the fleet to attack."

"Ah? This! Superintendent."

Lu Shiyan looked at Xie Xuelong with a strange smile on his face, and didn't know what to say.

"The world should not think that I am that pedantic and ignorant Mr. Morality. It is our responsibility to conquer the east and west for His Majesty, and to open up the territory for the Ming Dynasty, let alone the illusory oath. As long as Luzon Incorporating into the territory of Ming Dynasty, even if it is really struck by lightning? What's more, saving these people who have taken root in Luzon for many years will also be of great help to the future governance of Luzon."

What Xie Xuelong said completely shocked Lu Shiyan.

What is the pattern?

This is the layout!

I only looked one step away, but the supervisor had already seen five steps away!

"The subordinates admire!"

"There is no need to be too polite between you and me. I plan to settle these people in Gupan, and let them go back after the war is over. Do you have any objections?"

"The subordinates have no objections, and everything is subject to the supervisor's arrangement."

The fleet returned to Pagwila to say hello, and headed straight for Dagupan.

On the other side, Cerezo, who was hiding on Limbones Island, also received a message from Franco.

"Ming is so easy to talk?" Cerezo looked suspiciously at the officer in front of him.

"Yes, Governor, I was also present during the negotiation. The other party seems to be really worried about the safety of these people, and it doesn't seem like a fake."

"What if they break their promise?"

"Master Franco also expected this, and secretly detained seven or eight hundred wise men. If they break their promise, these wise men will continue to be our shield!"

"Yo? Franco is a good trick! Even a shrewd person is tricked!"

"When the Ming people were arrested, these people were detained separately from the brigade. Those who were sent away did not know the existence of these people."

"Franco is good! Very good! It's a pity that Mingren's fleet escaped. I planned to lead the fleet to circle around and catch them all!"

Cerezo stroked his beard and said.

The officer was stunned and didn't dare to answer.

"You go back and tell Franco to take strict precautions against Ming Ren's reneging on his promise and continuing to attack Manila."

"Yes!"

The officer gave a military salute and left with contempt in his heart.

Fucking around and outflanking, bah!

At any rate, Olaza dared to go to Corregidor Island to command, but you are better off, just hide away in fright.

"My lord, shall we go back to Manila?" a person beside Cerezo asked as the officer left.

"Fuck you! I don't believe that Mingren is so easy to fool. Wait a little longer, and we'll talk about it tomorrow."

Cerezo curled his lips and said that he was unwilling to bet his worth and life on the so-called contract.

The first fleet transported people to Dagupan, and it was already the night of the second day.
