Ming Zuo

Chapter 1183
"One official is really defeated?"

To this day, Guo Huaiyi can hardly believe that Zheng Zhilong, who is rampant in the East, actually lost.

"Big defeat and loss, complete and complete."

Speaking of this, He Bin was also extremely emotional.

If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, his reaction would not be any different from Guo Huaiyi's.

"How does Xia Guo deal with an official?"

But whatever Guo Huaiyi and others were concerned about, He Bin tried his best to answer.

"When I came, I heard that Yiguan and other brothers had gone north to visit His Royal Highness King Xia."

"Huh, that sounds nice. It's just that an official is imprisoned, and life and death are up to him."

This statement has been recognized by many people, but He Bin shook his head.

"It's indeed a real visit. The Yiguan brothers are unwilling to be lonely, and want to find a job in the Xia army. But the general Zuo Hua said clearly that there is no place for them to display their talents in the army. However, Xia Guo is vigorously developing However, the folks have a lot to do. The officials and brothers are going to look for His Royal Highness King Xia to ask for an idea."

He added another sentence.

"Everyone does not know that the son of an official is very fond of His Royal Highness King Xia. He usually lives in King Xia's mansion, as if he is his own son. With this relationship, an official should have no worries."

Everyone was amazed when they heard this.

When He Bin worked as an interpreter for the Dutch, he had a lot of contacts with them.For his character, the big guy can still trust him.

Knowing that Zheng Zhilong is not in danger of life, everyone is relieved.

But looking back, they have to think about themselves.

Guo Huaiyi has a big worry.

"Xia Guo is the Ming Dynasty's rebellion. If we surrender, will there be no possibility of returning to our homeland from now on?"

These people immigrated to Taiwan because they could no longer live in their hometown in Fujian.Although life has improved here, Fujian people have a strong rural complex.If they cannot go back to their hometown, it will be more sad than death for them.

Speaking of this, He Bin sneered.

"Just relying on those wine bags and rice bags of the Fujian government, how dare you become an enemy of Xia Guo? An official's house and relatives are safe and sound, let alone us. Xia Guo has stationed heavy troops on Jinmen Island. If there is anything wrong with the Fujian government, Xia Guo will let them taste the power. Therefore, if you want to return to your homeland in the future, you can leave as you want, and no one dares to stop you."

Everyone knows the virtues of the Ming government in Fujian.

But hearing that Xia Guo is so majestic, everyone is fascinated.

From this point of view, there seems to be nothing wrong with being a citizen of the Xia Kingdom.

"I'm just passing on the word on your behalf. You still need to send someone to discuss the details with the officials."

When everyone heard it, it was indeed the truth.

After deliberation, Guo Huaiyi and the other three returned to Prominza City with He Bin.

Gongduan simply called together the Han immigrants and the aborigines, and read out Xia Guo's policies.

"According to the laws and regulations of my country, everyone is equal. From now on, you and others will be under the rule of my country, so this law will naturally apply. Whether you are a Han or an aboriginal, there is no distinction between high and low. From now on, everyone will live in harmony, and the government will also We will treat you equally. All previous promises will never be changed."

This policy has greatly shocked not only the aboriginal people, but also the Han Chinese.

The words "everyone is equal" seem simple, but to the people of this era, it is really a thunderbolt that breaks the earth.

Everyone was originally a lowly citizen, but from now on, they can hold their heads high and live like individuals.

Based on this alone, Xia Guo quickly entered the hearts of the common people.

Strike while the iron is hot.

"The population of various places is about to start to organize households, dispatch officials, and establish political power. The same is true even in the countryside. But the place is so big, and there is a shortage of officials. Talented people among you can also come Sign up. The government will select talents to apply, and those who perform outstandingly can go to the government affairs school in Shandong for further study.”

As soon as Guo Huai understood what advanced study is, he couldn't help being moved.

When the Zheng family immigrated to Taiwan, he was the leader stationed here, and he alone managed the Han people here in an orderly manner.He can also withstand the intrusion of the Dutch and the Spaniards, and he thinks he is extraordinary.

If one can enter the officialdom of the Xia Kingdom, there is bound to be a possibility of rising steadily.

At this meeting, Gongduan also informed Guo Huaiyi and others of Xia Guo's intention to go northward and deal with the Spaniards.

After learning that the Dutch would also retreat, Guo Huaiyi and the others finally understood that from now on the entire island of Taiwan would only be ruled by the Xia family.

Under this situation, Xia Guo would definitely not allow uncontrolled forces to exist.

If they don't return their hearts, Xia Guo's first shot will definitely hit them in the head.

Under the general trend, it is irreversible.

Guo Huaiyi quickly expressed his allegiance to the Xia government on behalf of the immigrant Han people.

Gongduan also kept his word, and immediately appointed him as the director of the civil affairs department.Taking advantage of his familiarity with the local area, he began to extend the tentacles of the regime to all parts of the people.

Zuo Hua didn't care what the government did.

After some repairs in Prominza City, Zuo Hua led all the main warships of the East China Sea Fleet and began to go north to implement the plan to expel the Spaniards.

Putmans followed suit.

The Dutch and the Spaniards were life and death enemies, and he was happy to see any Spaniards suffer losses.

And he wanted to see how Xia Jun dealt with the strong castle built by the Spaniards.

Although those castles were everywhere in Europe, as a soldier, how to break through such city defenses gave Promans a very headache.

He also has the purpose of investigation this time.

I want to see with my own eyes how powerful Xia Jun is.

This will determine the depth of the bond between the Netherlands and Xia Guo.

As for his purpose, Zuo Huadong looked at the fire, but he didn't care at all.

The fleet went north along the west coast of Taiwan smoothly, and appeared at the mouth of the Tamsui River two days later.

The city of Santo Domingo, founded by the Spaniards, is on the right bank of the Tamsui River.

This is a small castle, with only more than one hundred and fifty people stationed there, under the command of a captain named Lausa Gonzales.

The Spaniards enslaved the natives on both sides of the Tamsui River, confiscated the fur, medicinal materials, and spices in their hands, and then concentrated them in the city of Santo Domingo.

From here, it is loaded on a ship and transported to Luzon.

Therefore, there are many ships docked by the river outside the castle, as well as warships.

Suddenly seeing a large number of warships appear, the Spaniards panicked.

At the same time as the alarm bell rang throughout the castle, the warships in the port rushed out in a hurry.

Regardless of whether these warships that suddenly appeared were enemies or friends, if the warships continued to dock in the port, they would only be beaten and unable to fight back.

But it is a pity that the quiet days made the Spaniard's reaction too slow.

Before the lonely warship broke out of the estuary, it was locked by the leading battleship Yizhou.

With just one salvo, the small warship disintegrated on the spot under the gaze of countless people.

Yes.

It wasn't hit, it wasn't sunk, it wasn't damaged, it just disappeared into nothingness on the surface of the sea with billowing black smoke.

"Oh my God!"

On the city wall of Santo Domingo, Lausa Gonzalez saw this scene, his eyes went dark on the spot, and he had a premonition that something bad was going on.
