Daming: The most ruthless tyrant in history

Chapter 798 The Era of the Strong!
Yu Zigao felt tremendous pressure. All the eyes of the people in the hall were on him without exception. It was not easy to make a decision.

Most people in the hall did not notice that Zheng Zhilong's hanging hands were clenched tightly, as if he was trying hard to restrain something. In his heart, he really hoped that Yu Zigao would refuse!
"Boss, I can beat you."

Yu Zigao pondered for a moment, facing Wei Zhongxian's gaze, "We have to travel from Dongfan to Ryukyu. To ensure that we can drive out the Dongwo who have occupied Ryukyu, I will withdraw at least 60% of the Dongfan navy stationed in Kaohsiung Port."

"We'll give you 70%!"

Wei Zhongxian's eyes were sharp as he asked, "Can this ensure that the Eastern Japanese are driven out and Ryukyu is recovered?"

"Then Dongfan..."

Yu Zigao blurted out subconsciously.

"That's not something you have to think about."

Wei Zhongxian waved his hand and said, "Let me ask you one question: Can we drive out the Japanese and recover Ryukyu in this way? "

"can!"

Yu Zigao said loudly: "If this is the case, I can't do it, so I will kill myself and feed the fish."

"it is good!!"

Wei Zhongxian clapped his hands and laughed, "This is the Yu Zigao we know. Whether it's the Eastern Japanese or the Western Barbarians, they have been rampant for too long, so that our Ming Dynasty army has never taken them seriously. Now they are all jumping up and down."

"Others are afraid of the Japanese and the barbarians, but we are not. We all have two shoulders and one head, and we are all ugly. Do you think we are better than the Ming Dynasty? Ridiculous!"

"hehe…"

After Wei Zhongxian said this, some laughter broke out in the hall, but it quickly disappeared.

"Mr. Wei, I want to ask you a question."

Cao Huachun glanced around, frowned, and looked at Wei Zhongxian and said, "You must fight the Ryukyu war, and even withdraw 70% of the navy stationed in Kaohsiung Port."

"How can we ensure the stability of the Dongfan barrier?"

"When we first planned to build Kaohsiung Port, it was because we had fought a war with the Dutch and saw the strategic importance of Kaohsiung. That's why General Yu moved to Kaohsiung, and we also moved to Kaohsiung. Even the Yongwei Battalion led by Li Hongji also moved there."

"We have also read these secret letters. The Dutch and Spanish are in collusion with each other, and there are even other people who are secretly involved. Once they know about the changes in Dongfan, how can the factory master ensure the stability of Dongfan?"

Yu Zigao, Li Yongzhen, Zheng Zhilong and others looked at each other with different expressions on their faces. What Cao Huachun said was also very important.

You can't say that in order to seize Ryukyu and collect taxes, you put Dongfan in danger. If you do so, even if you really seize Ryukyu but lose Dongfan, wouldn't that be putting the cart before the horse?
"What if they get into chaos?"

In this situation, facing countless gazes, Wei Zhongxian raised his lips slightly and said, "If chaos breaks out, will they still have the heart to think about the Eastern Frontier?"

Ok?
Wei Zhongxian's question stunned everyone present.

Become a mess?
Why is it so messy?
"From the batches of immigrants who came to Dongfan by boat across the sea, if I remember correctly, the scale was more than 100,000 people, right?" Wei Zhongxian narrowed his eyes slightly.

"Nearly 20% of them are craftsmen engaged in smelting, shipbuilding, calcination, guns, gunpowder and other fields. It is precisely because of the arrival of this group of people that we have saved a lot of effort in building cities, repairing roads, building canals and reclaiming wasteland in Dongfan. But have you not noticed that we have also been tied up by an invisible chain?"

"I want to ask you all, who still remembers what the emperor wanted us to do before he asked us to come to Dongfan? Who still remembers?" Li Yongzhen looked around and said, "Take root in Dongfan, then conquer Nanyang, enhance the prestige of our Ming Dynasty, and make the Nanyang regions submit!!"

"right!!"

Wei Zhongxian opened his eyes slightly and said, "So now we have taken root in Dongfan, right? There are hundreds of thousands of people in various places in Dongfan. They are fed by food from Nanyang and protected by soldiers from the coast. They can work peacefully in various places."

"Since Dongfan has no internal worries, why can't we take the initiative to deal with external worries? If the enemy can go, I can go too. Have you remembered what I said?"

"The situation in Liaodong was so critical earlier. Many people were not optimistic about Liaodong. But what about Xiong Manzi? Since he was trusted and valued by the emperor, what did he do? Didn't he look for opportunities to fight with Jianlu again and again, instead of being a coward!?"

After Wei Zhongxian said this, Zu Dashou, Zu Kuan and others lowered their heads.

Although Dongfan is far away from the central government of the Ming Dynasty and it is difficult to get some information, there has been a lot of news sent back from the central government over the years.

Especially in Liaodong.

This was done intentionally by Zhu Youxiao in order to boost the confidence of Wei Zhongxian and others. The Ming Dynasty had suffered defeats in the past, but this did not mean that it would always suffer defeats and would not be able to win battles.

In the Age of Discovery, where there are no rules and no order, confidence is always important if you want to make progress and gain something.

Some things in this world were created by crazy people.

"Over the years, our family has adopted many sons and grandsons."

Facing the gazes from all directions, Wei Zhongxian raised his lips and said, "We have rewarded them with a lot of gold and silver. I know that many of you have ideas about this matter."

"Raise an army for a thousand days and use it for a moment."

"Now is the time for them to give us some benefits, Zheng Zhilong. If we ask you to leave Dongfan and lead a navy to Luzon, can you stir up unrest in the area?"

Ok?
Zheng Zhilong was stunned when he was suddenly named by Wei Zhongxian.

Cao Huachun opened his eyes slightly, and at that moment, he seemed to understand Wei Zhongxian's thoughts.

"We are going to celebrate a birthday! For good luck."

After glancing around, Wei Zhongxian looked at Zheng Zhilong and said, "This man of mine is greedy for money. If anyone can give me gold and silver, I will give him an official position, even an official position in the Eastern Frontier Navy."

"Except for you, Zheng Zhilong, the guerrilla general, as well as Zu Kuan, Zu Dale, Wu Xiang and other officers, we will release you all."

"What are you doing? Just pass on our words to our adopted sons and grandsons. Rob when necessary and kill when necessary. Don't be afraid of being surrounded and attacked. As long as we are here, Dongfan is here. If anyone suffers a loss, just come to Dongfan and tell us. We will pay him back!!"

A word stirred up a thousand waves.

At this moment, everyone in the hall had complicated expressions on their faces. Because of Wei Zhongxian's words, there might be a bloody storm in the waters of the South Sea countries! !
They had no doubt that if these words of Wei Zhongxian were to reach the ears of those people, they would all go crazy. But there was no other way. Wei Zhongxian had really dared to give them things before. From gold and silver to women and other things, except for official positions, he would not be stingy as long as they were asked.

In the past, Cao Huachun and others couldn't figure it out, and even had other ideas, but after hearing what Wei Zhongxian said, they understood that this was a plan that had been made long ago.
