Chapter 634 Evacuation of Overseas Chinese

Chapter 634 Evacuation of Overseas Chinese
The ancestor's family came to Yazhou and were not treated differently, and Huang Sheng didn't even know about it.

Because criminals with their families are sent to Hainan Island by the court almost every month, it has become a routine to arrange for these people.

All the prisoners and their family members came here with the mentality of coming to the backcountry to endure hardships. Who would have thought that the living conditions here were comparable to those in the south of the Yangtze River, and the common people were as wealthy as they were.

Here I want to emphasize that there is a gap between the rich and the poor in the Huang family system, but it is not very serious. It should be an olive type. There are not as many rich people as in the graceful Jiangnan, but there is basically no abject poverty. The living conditions of the grassroots people are already higher than those in the Jiangnan.

The exiled prisoners and family members were not discriminated against by the people of the Huang family. They would all get jobs and earn a monthly salary. Too many masters who were former scholars became clerks or technicians, and servants with military value became government servants or policemen. .

Zu Kuan is now dressed in short soap clothes, and is the leader of the Yazhou government team, with more than [-] policemen under his command.

The Huang family system is not a cheap job, it belongs to the grassroots managers, and most of them are retired soldiers as the squad leaders. They belong to the lowest-level military officer in the civil affairs system.

The three classes of yamen servants are all selected from high-level township activists, and the treatment is the same as that of auxiliary soldiers.

Zu Kuan lived a carefree life, and worked hard as the head of the team. He thought it was difficult to keep his head, but it stands to reason that he should be satisfied with his life and live a well-off life without worrying about food and clothing.

However, Zu Kuan was always unwilling to sleep peacefully at midnight, "Iron Horse and Glacier Falling into Dreams".

He also belongs to the grass-roots officials of the Huang family system, and he also has his share in receiving investment inspection groups.Therefore, he learned that Wu Xiang, the brother-in-law of the former head of the family, had come to Yazhou, so he deliberately found a chance to meet him.

Wu Xiang was very surprised to see Zu Kuan, seeing his attire couldn't help being amused, said: "Zu Kuan, I haven't seen you for a few years, but I never thought you would be living under the command of King Qiongya County, not bad, not bad."

Zu Kuan stood at attention and saluted, "Ping Xibo, Zu Kuan is reporting to you!"

Wu Xiang smiled and said: "It's still the military ceremony set by the king of Qiongya County. Look at Shu Tan, alas! You don't have a hard time in Yazhou, so my lord can rest assured."

Zu Kuan said: "Thank you Ping Xibo for thinking about it. Thanks to the King of Qiongya County, everyone from the ancestor's family who came to Hainan Island can live a decent life. The little one came to see you today to ask you for one thing."

"Oh? Do you want to follow the Duke?"

Wu Xiang knew that Zu Kuan was a fierce man who was skilled in bow and horse, so he wanted to recruit him.

It's a pity that the purpose of Zu Kuan's approach was not to follow Wu Xiang, he politely refused:
"Thank you, Ping Xibo, for your love. It's just that the younger one is assigned to Hainan Island, so it's inappropriate to follow Ping Xibo. The younger one wants to fight with King Qiongya, so I'm here to ask for your recommendation."

This is a fact, Wu Xiang thought it was true, said:

"That's right, the King of Qiongya County often fights overseas, and it's unknown whether you will become a general if you make military achievements with him. But the Huang family once helped the court arrest Zu Dashou, do you have any grudges?"

When Zu Kuan saw that there was a family, he immediately said: "The owner of the family did surrender and became a slave, and he did have correspondence with Hou Jin. It is not an exaggeration to be beheaded by the court. The young ones never dared to resent, let alone resent Huang who was doing things according to the order. family horse."

"I am very pleased that you are so open-minded. It is very easy to introduce you to the king of Qiongya County. I know that you are proficient in bowing horses and martial arts, and I also know that you are a man of promise. As long as you make an oath, this noble Immediately seek accommodation from the magistrate Gu Shanhai."

Wu Xiang had been dealing with the Huang family for too long, and he knew Gu Shanhai, Liu Liangcai, Huang Dongshan and other senior leaders of the Huang family very well. Of course, it would be accommodating to take a team leader away to see the head of the family.

Without further ado, Zu Kuan immediately knelt down and swore: "Zu Kuan voluntarily joined the army with the king of Qiongya County, and will remain loyal to the Huang family system until death. If you break your oath..."

Zu Dashou has been dead for more than two years, and the resentment in Wu Xiang's heart faded away. He saw his old friend Zu Kuan and felt sorry for each other. Seeing Zu Kuan vowed to join the army again, he immediately went to Gu Shanhai to explain the situation.

Sure enough, Gu Shanhai readily agreed, and called Zu Kuan to drink together as a practice. A few days later, Zu Kuan, who was in a good mood, boarded the passenger ship and continued southward as Wu Xiang's attendant.

On September [-]th, the seventh year of Chongzhen, Huang Mingdao led a hundred warships and three hundred merchant ships to the port of "Batavia" on Java Island, which is the later Indonesian capital Jakarta.

It is now the headquarters of the Dutch East India Company.

The governor of the Netherlands, Yan Petersson Kun, was exhausted by the sudden uprising of the indigenous rebels, and today he was frightened out of his wits by the Ming fleet flying the dragon flag.

The Dutch were tossed about by the wave of native rebellion, and could barely maintain a few fortresses near the sea. Yan Petersson Kun sent a warship back to the motherland for help, but before the reinforcements arrived, a more terrifying threat came enemy.

The port fortress of "Batavia" is on high alert. More than [-] Dutch warships have been lined up. All the artillery has been loaded, and the battle is imminent.

The Ming fleet did not launch an attack, and an unarmed merchant ship sailed towards the port wharf in a grand manner. Under the watchful eyes of one or two thousand Dutch soldiers, a dozen or so Ming officials dressed in luxurious silk got off the merchant ship.

Among them were four blond-haired and blue-eyed Westerners. This was not surprising. The Huang family was inclusive and hired people from all over the world. They would get jobs as translators, technicians, teachers, sailors, etc.

These four Westerners were Spaniards who were fluent in Dutch. After a while, the Governor of the Netherlands received a note from Ming Dynasty.

The content is not complicated, but the general idea is: because the Dutch authorities cannot maintain the order of Java Island, and it is extremely unsafe here, the Ming Dynasty sent warships and merchant ships to evacuate the overseas Chinese in order to prevent the people from harming Chiyu.

Daming strictly ordered the governor of the Netherlands to cooperate with Daming to evacuate overseas Chinese to ensure the safety of the expatriates and ensure their property is not violated. If any expatriate dies due to the non-cooperation of the Dutch authorities, Daming immediately slaughtered [-] Dutch as punishment. .

Too arrogant and unreasonable, but all Han people like it.

The Governor of the Netherlands certainly didn't like it, and of course he didn't agree to such an unreasonable request.

Evacuation?So fresh, never heard of it!
The Han people here were all hired by the Dutch, and they also took up arms at this time to participate in the defense of "Batavia". The Han people have left, so the defense here is even more stretched.

The note was unreasonably rejected, and the top officials who came to negotiate were Liu Guozheng and Li Xihan, who liked to stir up trouble the most. They took out a new note.

The content is simpler, let's go back, two hours later, if the Governor changes his mind, send someone to row to the Ming flagship to continue the negotiation.
