Mingshi

Chapter 1169 Action
"Alas..." Luo Xin sighed and murmured in a low voice, "I just don't know what will happen to Gao Gong when the business tax is fully raised."

The speed of encircling and suppressing the Japanese pirates at sea was very fast. The reason was that Luo Sheng was very clear about the sailing routes and lairs of those Japanese pirates, because Luo Sheng had already arranged spies among the Japanese pirates.Moreover, Luo Sheng's navy can be said to be the most powerful in the world today.With the cooperation of the Great Ming Navy, Luo Sheng didn't need to use all his strength at all. He only dispatched a quarter of the Huaxia Navy, and it only took three months to clear all the Japanese pirates at sea.

And at this time, the envoys from Luzon finally realized that it was impossible for Ming to send navy to help them.At this time, they also realized Luo Sheng's strength.Not only did they destroy the Japanese kingdom, but it took only three months to destroy the Japanese pirates at sea.If Luo Sheng is willing to help them, Luzon will be safe.

However, they also knew that once Luo Sheng was invited, they would no longer be the kings of Luzon.Because the former king of Ryukyu came here and spoke to him.Luo Sheng can help them, but they must submit to the Huaxia Kingdom and become a part of the Huaxia Kingdom.Of course, he is still the king of Luzon, enjoying the glory and wealth.It's just that this king of Luzon is no longer his current king of Luzon.

He didn't want to give up his current status, but he knew it was just his fantasy.Franji has already landed, and Luzon has lost one-third of its territory. If this continues, he will completely lose Luzon.Even if he is not killed by Frangji, he will become Frangji's puppet and become a dog.It might as well go to Luo Sheng.According to the Ryukyu King, he is now living very happily in Huaxia Kingdom, not only enjoying prosperity and wealth, but also having a certain right to speak.In this way, King Luzon no longer hesitates, and he can't afford to hesitate. If he hesitates any longer, he can only be a dog of Franz, and a dog that will lose his life at any time.

Luo Sheng received a letter from the king of Luzon, and immediately the navy that had been hiding near Luzon marched to the port of Luzon. With lightning speed, he surrounded the Fran machine ship moored in the port, and captured Fran The robots either wiped out or captured Frangji's ship, and then began to land, copying Frangji's back route.

When the news was sent to Luo Xin, Luo Xin didn't worry about Luo Sheng and the others at all.With the current level of science and technology in China, it is definitely the most advanced on earth.Not to mention artillery, it is the breech-loading guns with rifled lines used in China now, which are the most advanced in the world today.Whether those Spanish or French machines, they still use front-loading guns.And now Huaxia still has grenades. If it is at sea, although Huaxia has an advantage, it may not necessarily occupy an absolute advantage.Because there are too many uncertain factors in naval battles.However, on land, Huaxia's force can definitely destroy Franji.

As for Huaxia Kingdom's subjugation of Luzon and turning Luzon into a province of China, Luo Xin is not worried about what Ming Dynasty will do.Luzon is only a vassal state of Ming Dynasty, not the state capital of Ming Dynasty.Moreover, this time the Huaxia Kingdom united with the Daming Navy to wipe out the pirates, and Daming would not easily offend Huaxia, which is powerful at sea.

Therefore, Luo Xin no longer cared about Luzon's affairs.He set about reopening the Shibo Division.

Without the Japanese pirates at sea, the restoration of the Shibo Department has also become easier.Daming has already prepared everything, and all businessmen have agreed to a tax of one out of ten.Moreover, a huge backlog of goods has long been accumulated, waiting for the Shibo Division to open it.All they need to do now is to wait for the arrival of the merchants from the feudal kingdom.

Where are those vassal merchants?
In fact, many merchants from the vassal states were near the Daming Sea, some in Luzon, some in Malacca and other places.These years they are also in contact with each other, and in the past two years there have been caravans coming here from Europe. They have been blocked by Japanese pirates, which is equivalent to blocking their source of income.Why did they come all the way here?
Just to get rich!

But the Japanese pirates stood in front of them, and they also joined forces to wipe out the Japanese pirates.And once the Japanese pirates are wiped out, their power will be huge at that time, and they can negotiate with Daming and re-price, which will have endless benefits.Franji attacked Luzon because he wanted to establish a base there, a place for their alliance.Before that, they also fought against the Japanese pirates, but although they were not wiped out by the Japanese pirates, they did not kill the Japanese pirates either.They only thought that after occupying Luzon, they would wait for more European business groups to arrive and fight the Japanese pirates again when their strength became stronger.Even if the Japanese pirates are not eliminated, as long as an agreement can be reached with the Japanese pirates.

but……

What they didn't expect was that before they started attacking Luzon, the well-known rising star Huaxia Kingdom and the Daming Navy teamed up to clear up the Japanese pirates.

What they didn't expect was that before they fully occupied Luzon, the Huaxia Kingdom responded to Luzon's request and began to attack them in Luzon.

And with the blitzkrieg method, before they could react, they occupied the port and robbed their sea ships.Then land and start to encircle them.

They were immediately furious, but when they fought against the people of Huaxia in Luzon, they found that they were no opponents of Huaxia.

not to mention……

Huaxia has far more soldiers than them, and their weapons are much stronger than them.

Seeing that this continues, their group of people will be wiped out, and they have no choice but to ask the Huaxia Kingdom for negotiations.What they didn't expect was that with such an advantage, Huaxia actually agreed.

They were also overjoyed by the results obtained in the negotiations.

Huaxia put forward several conditions.

First, they can return the seized merchant ships to various merchant groups.And they don't need to pay compensation.

Second, Huaxia can guarantee the safety of the shipping lanes on the Asian side, that is to say, it can provide protection to business groups from various European countries without requiring them to pay.

As soon as these two conditions were met, the expressions of the merchants from the vassal state sank.Given such generous conditions from Huaxia, there must be high demands.Huaxia is not a philanthropist.Sure enough, Huaxia then raised the third point.

The Huaxia Kingdom will enter Malacca and become the master of Malacca.There, Huaxia Kingdom will build many piers, and all business groups that park, repair and replenish in Malacca will have to pay fees.

Regarding the payment of the fee, the merchants of the vassal state have no objection, because the amount of fees charged by the Huaxia Kingdom is within their tolerance.Moreover, the docks, inns and other places that people spend money and energy to build, why should they give you free?
What they care about is the ownership of Malacca.
