Chapter 193 How can we call it perfect if we don’t torture those Japanese pirates?

"Xiao Han, don't bully others too much!"

Seeing that Xiao Han was really trying to drive him away, Lorenson couldn't help but angrily yelled.

"Too much bullying?"

"My Ming Dynasty is overwhelming Yu Nei, sweeping across all directions, so what if I bully you?"

"roll!"

Xiao Han snorted, and Jiang You threw the person out directly.

"Sir, we..."

Seeing being kicked out, his subordinates couldn't help but speak.

"Shut up!"

Lorenson said coldly.

"or…"

"Shut up!!!"

……

British government.

"Isn't this Lancang's special envoy?"

"Why were you thrown out of here?"

Zhu Biao looked at Xiao Han who was standing with his hands behind his back and couldn't help but ask.

"Oh, this guy wants me to persuade dad to take back his life."

Xiao Han chuckled.

"Isn't this funny?"

"You want to persuade dad?"

"Daddy advises you to be more reliable than this."

Zhu Biao laughed loudly.

"Isn't that right?"

"By the way, have you found all kinds of craftsmen?"

Xiao Han was also happy, and then he saw Shan Anren following Zhu Biao.

"I see you, Your Highness."

Shan Anren saluted Xiao Han.

"Single minister is exempt from the gift."

Xiao Han reached out and helped Shan Anren up.

"Back to Your Highness, all the craftsmen needed by Your Highness have been summoned, especially the blacksmiths, who have gathered in large numbers. Your Majesty is here to ask, when will we start construction?"

"Although those craftsmen dare not bargain with me, Daming, they will inevitably feel dissatisfied if I let them stay here for a long time."

Shan Anren said to Xiao Han.

"Ah."

"In that case, let's start work as soon as possible."

"When you leave, remember to arrange for a team of Ming soldiers to accompany you."

"We have chosen this place in the southern border of central Sichuan. There are many unruly barbarians gathering around it. Don't let them ruin our plan."

Xiao Han walked to the map and pointed at the place he and Zhu Biao had previously chosen.

"If not, let Mu Ying arrange manpower for protection."

"He is over there now and is more familiar with the area."

Zhu Biao said to Xiao Han.

"also."

Xiao Han nodded casually. He didn't care who made the arrangements. The important thing was that someone had to watch and make sure nothing went wrong.

"Your Highness, look at the buildings around the blast furnace. Are there any problems with our construction?"

Shan Anren held a drawing in both hands.

A blast furnace is no small project, especially a hydraulic blast furnace like the Daming Dynasty. When the water power is insufficient, manpower is needed for post-processing.

Next to every blast furnace, there are many people busy working.

The basic necessities, food, housing, and transportation of this group of people must be provided within this scope.

After all, blacksmiths are not refugees. They can make a living by making blacksmiths in their hometown. Now that they are working for the court, if life is not as good as before, even if they dare not say anything, they will not work hard.

"This canteen should not be built next to the river. An iron office and sorting assembly line should be built here."

"Recruit some civilians to identify the produced iron products. Those that are qualified can be shipped directly, those that need to be processed by blacksmiths, and those that need to be remelted."

Xiao Han opened his mouth to explain.

"The British public is a man of great talent, but a low-ranking official is not as good as an emergency."

After listening to Xiao Han's description, Shan Anren couldn't help but his eyes lit up.

"where?"

"Actually, I didn't make it clear."

"Oh, yes, and here, you built the dock too small. The iron production of so many blast furnaces must accommodate at least three merchant ships carrying goods side by side."

"In this way, the steel produced here will flow into the river in the morning and reach Yingtian in the evening. Our Ming Dynasty's various types of soldiers, armor, swords, cannons and warships can be produced in Yingtian Mansion in an endless stream."

"By then our Ming Dynasty will be able to armor all warships with iron and sail across the seas."

Xiao Han continued to speak.

"With such a battleship, can we go to Fuso to find gold and silver?"

Zhu Biao's eyes lit up.

Xiao Han's words, he remembered that the Fusang Islands have mountains of gold and silver, which can ease the Ming Dynasty's finances and allow the Ming Dynasty's treasures to be re-bound with more stable gold and silver.

At this time, Zhu Biao was more anxious than Xiao Han, especially during this period of time to study the economics of the Ming Dynasty.

Zhu Biao finally understood the problems that may arise from continuing to bind grain. This was because the Ming Dynasty did not exchange grain for foreign countries, so it was able to stabilize.

But this kind of thing is not absolute. They will always find a way to take advantage of Ming Dynasty's loopholes.

Once there is a famine in the Ming Dynasty, these guys will rush forward, and the Ming Dynasty will return to "before liberation".

"Why are you more anxious than me?"

"Don't worry. I have already made plans in my mind about that place. As long as our armored battleship is built, we only need to wait for an opportunity."

"And this opportunity, if you count on your fingers, it will appear very soon."

"Yao Guangxiao!" "Tell me our plan."

The corners of Xiao Han's mouth curled up.

"His Royal Highness."

"After the lower official's calculations, this year my Ming Dynasty will have the appearance of ten thousand Buddhas. One Buddha belongs to the earth, with mountains and mountains, and one Buddha belongs to water, with waves thousands of miles away."

"Then Lancang responded to the request of the local Buddha to worship. The land is mountainous and it is a Buddhist country. Therefore, there should be an island country on the sea that pays tribute to our Ming Dynasty."

Yao Guangxiao, dressed in black, walked out from the side and said, he looked like an old magician as soon as he opened his mouth.

"Ok?"

"What do you mean?"

"Is it possible that the Fusang Congress on the sea surrendered to the Ming Dynasty? Avoiding a war?"

Zhu Biao was interested.

"No."

"The results show that the water Buddha's light does not show much, and is not even as good as the earth Buddha. Although the fusang is chaotic and narrow, it is comparable to Lancang, which has been unified since the Han and Tang Dynasties."

"According to my guess, it should come from here."

Yao Guangxiao opened his mouth to explain, came to the map, and drew a circle in the sea between Fusang and Daming.

"This is…"

Zhu Biao stared here, frowning.

The level of mapping in this era was not very high, and the small islands on the sea were inconspicuous.

"This is the Three Kingdoms of Ryukyu."

"They are located on the sea, which is a water feature. The place is narrow and has not been unified. Therefore, it is not as good as the Lancang Kingdom. If someone's calculation is correct, it should be here."

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince can persuade His Majesty to send envoys to these three countries, and then these three countries will definitely surrender."

Yao Guangxiao spoke, but he was also sweating silently in his heart.

Xiao Han said that these three countries would definitely join Ming Dynasty this year and let him show his skills, so he had no choice but to bite the bullet.

Xiao Han was certainly not lying. Historically, it was in this year that the Three Kingdoms of Ryukyu established contact with the Ming Dynasty and eventually became a vassal state of the Ming Dynasty, whether during the period of division or reunification.

And Xiao Han, who had already put his mind on it, naturally did not intend to let go of this opportunity. This was the bridgehead for him to conquer Fusang and intervene in the situation in Fusang.

The Hongwu period also happened to be the period of prosperity of the Fuso Muromachi shogunate. Shortly after the shogunate ended the unification of the Northern and Southern Dynasties, the shogunate Ashikaga Yoshimitsu worked hard to govern and implemented many policies, and the national strength was pretty good.

Although it is not impossible to wait for the armored fleet of the Ming Dynasty Navy to be built, it is not impossible to directly use the ship to attack the flying dragon.

But as the saying goes, the first is to attack the enemy with troops, the second is to attack the enemy, the second is to attack the army, and the third is to attack the city.

Xiao Han is a strategist who prefers to fight with his brain. Now that he has the Three Ryukyu Kingdoms as a springboard, if he doesn't muddy the water first and then torture the country severely, Xiao Han himself will feel that this battle is a loss.

In fact, Fuso looked pretty good at this time. In fact, there were many internal conflicts. At least their emperor was probably not very happy about being a puppet all the time.

Once the Ming Envoy arrives in the Three Mountains Kingdom of Ryukyu, Xiao Han's plan will officially begin. To make the plan work, the other party must be deeply aware of what despair is.

At that time, I don’t know what the expressions of this group of inhuman Japanese who were tortured by Xiao Han will be when they finally see the armored fleet led by Xiao Han.

"Is this your idea?"

"Put on a show like this for me."

Zhu Biao glanced at Xiao Han and said lightly.

"Ok?"

"Why did His Royal Highness say this?"

Xiao Han chuckled.

"Get lost."

"Tell me, why are you so sure that the three kingdoms on the island will surrender to Ming Dynasty? After all, Ming Dynasty's tribute conditions are not very friendly."

Zhu Biao said to Xiao Han.

"hehe."

"them?"

"Do you have the right to choose?"

"If we talk about Yue Kingdom, Lancang, and Fusang, these places are as large as a province, with millions of people, and they are barely qualified to compete with our Ming Dynasty."

"Those three kingdoms combined have no more than one county and no more than three towns. They are still fragmented island countries. What right do they have to reject our Ming Dynasty?"

"Give them the opportunity to pay tribute because they are a bit far away and it is not convenient to rule them directly at the moment. It's not that we, the Ming Dynasty, can't do anything to them."

"To deal with them, we don't need to wait for the formal interview with the armored fleet in the Eastern War Zone. We can just drive a few ships over and fire a few cannons. Where can they go to such a big island?"

Xiao Han chuckled, with indifference in his smile.

"That's true."

"I guess I was wrong."

Zhu Biao nodded. He had been with Xiao Han for a long time. He wanted a reason to hit anyone and asked how to hit him. He almost forgot that he could still ride a flying dragon on his face.

"That being the case, let's go to the meeting tomorrow and grant the gold seal to the special envoy of Lancang."

Zhu Biao nodded slightly.

"it is good."

"Does Shangshu have anything else to ask?"

Xiao Han turned to Shan Anren.

"When I get back to Your Highness, I already know what I need to know. You can immediately go down and make arrangements to build the blast furnace."

Shan Anren, who had been listening awkwardly for a long time, immediately said to Xiao Han.

"Ah."

"Very good, let's go down. Remember to move quickly. If our steel production in Ming Dynasty increases as soon as possible, we can take the next step as soon as possible."

Xiao Han said.

and Lincheng.

Prince Qi's Mansion.

It is different from the cheerful and relaxed atmosphere here in the British Palace of the Ming Dynasty.

Wang Baobao has been a big boss in the past two days.

Faced with Ming's bachelor's extremely direct admission, the dumbfounded Wang Baobao didn't know what to do next.

The sudden increase in the price of winter clothes has caused many tribes to complain in the past two days. He took the initiative to pick up his brain and analyze it, and came to the conclusion that there could be no gunpowder.

As a result, the pressure was put on Yuan Ting, hoping that Yuan Ting would come forward and ask Daming to adjust the price back.
