Chapter 1218 Disappearing
Private letter from Zou Zhi County?
Chen Mu only thought of one thing when he heard the words of the soldiers: Why did Zou Yuanbiao send me a private message?
Unfolding the letter, the content in it was related to the Governor of Peru. Soon after the victorious Zou Yuanbiao’s change in Zhumapo, he met the envoy of the Governor of Peru.

As soon as the envoy got off the ship, he was detained by the Changsheng Port garrison banner...Whether the Westerners or Asian natives who disembarked from the Changsheng Port were allowed to visit the county government, the reason why the envoy was detained was that he I want to hide my eyes and ears.

Wrapped all over his body in a linen burqa, this might make him look like an ascetic monk in Peru to avoid many disturbances, but Chang Sheng, who is dressed everywhere in Jinghai?It just makes him look like a sneaky thief.

Zou Yuanbiao said in the letter that the Peruvian Governor Toledo sent people to Changsheng to seek asylum, and asked Daming to accept his family of 64 people from two generations to live in Haojing. Forty thousand catties of silver.

The letter was very long, but Chen Mu was no longer in the mood to look down carefully. He slowly sat behind the short bench of the Chinese army tent, put Zou Yuanbiao's letter on the case, and put his hands on his armor skirt to see that there was no one in the tent. Looking around, eyes straightened.

How much does Toledo say pays?

Forty thousand catties.

64 taels.

How many people does his family have?

Two generations.

64 mouths.

Look what he found, found a man richer than him.

And this guy is too capable of giving birth. All the governors sent by Spain to the New World are prominent nobles in the Iberian Peninsula, especially in Toledo. His surname means that he is from Toledo, the steel manufacturing center of Spain. Fortress, where all the bucklers and well-worked steel swords of the Spanish sword-and-shield infantry were forged.

It is a rare and good weapon with exquisite workmanship. Most of the trophies of the lower-ranking officers of the Eastern Military Mansion have one or two as collections.

Chen Mu also had a handle before, which was obtained during the Lu Song War, but was later taken away by the emperor and taken to the Qianqing Palace.

Just like the high-ranking officials who went abroad in the Ming Dynasty did not bring their families, the governor of Spain also did not bring their families. At least it was impossible to move the whole family to the New World. Then the problem came... As the ancestor of the Toledo family in the New World, this thing How did you turn your family into a family of 64 with two generations?
The amount of information was too much, so Chen Mu took it slow.

Deng Zilong opened the curtain suddenly and came in. The first time he saw the commander Lin Hu'er who was still sketching the map on the ground, and then he saw Chen Mu who was sitting upright behind Xingjun, with a look of loss on his face.

Marshal Deng's eyes wandered in front of Lin Hu'er and Chen Mu. It was obvious that the two of them had no time to talk to him at the moment, so they had to bow their hands meaninglessly before saying hello to Lin Manjue who was standing next to him: "Get the guerrilla first." Let the army go out, the western army in Cali City has also retreated, we can attack from the southwest."

Deng Zilong didn't bother to care about what the Spaniards thought. He and Lin Manjue were just like those South Asian rebels, simple and direct, only staring at one target, and other things were not important.

It doesn't matter whether the city of Cali is on defense or not, whether it withdraws or not, they will lead the army to occupy it.

The countryside is the territory of the rebel army, and the cities and towns will be the main battlefield of the Beiyang Banner Army.

Now only waiting for the [-]th day of the first lunar month, Deng Zilong wanted the banner troops under his command to run away with all their strength, to see how fast the Beiyang Banner Army could attack and march.

But the world in front of Chen Mu is different.

In this letter from Zou Yuanbiao, the Spanish governor of Peru arranged everything.

Chen Mu patted the letter on the table, and said: "There are three legions in the Western Army stationed in Peru. Among them, the Godot Legion is the general banner Tang Dazhang led troops to stop and suffered heavy casualties. Now there are 27 companies and [-] troops without reorganization. the rest."

"The 27 companies gradually shrunk their line of defense. When they arrived in Lima, they boarded and evacuated in three batches. There were five batches of evacuation ships in Lima. The first batch was the old and new noble planters in the Viceroyalty of Peru; the second, third, and fourth batches were the reorganized legions. ; The fifth batch is governor officials, missionaries from various places and members of the Indian Affairs Committee."

"The governor of Peru himself sent someone to find Zou Yuanbiao and informed him of the situation in Peru. The Western Peruvian Army is fully withdrawing."

Following Chen Mu's words, Deng Zilong stepped forward in disbelief, with the determination in his brows that he had discussed with Lin Manjue before: "Full evacuation, five fleets, what does the Peruvian governor want to do?"

Deng Zilong thought, as a governor, losing a battle and humiliating the country would be dereliction of duty, and he would be punished if he returned to Spain; but wouldn't it be a greater crime to make the [-] troops retreat without firing a single shot?Fei Laoer may not be able to do anything after losing a battle. After all, winning or losing is a common matter in military affairs. He has never won against Da Ming, and he should have a plan in mind the moment a conflict occurs.

"He is afraid of war, and he wants to pull more than 8000 people from the Western Peruvian Army to retreat..." Deng Zilong seemed to want Chen Mu to confirm the content of the letter, and said, "Going back to Spain, Fei Lao Er can leave him with a dead body." Even if you are compassionate, Marshal, this is too fake."

Where in the world is someone looking for death like this?

"You're right, that's why he didn't plan to go back. Lin Shuai's indigenous spies have accurate information. He was indeed corrupt when he was in power in Peru. The envoy told Zou Yuanbiao in Changsheng that he planned to join Daming and not want high-ranking officials and rich salary. I just want to have a place to live in Haojing, look..."

Look at Zou Baldzi's use of this word: a square inch of shelter.

"His family has 64 people, and the abbot doesn't have enough land to live in. What a waste of land to feed them."

Chen Mu was actually quite embarrassed, so he spread his hands and said, "I won't let him go to Haojing, but the deal he proposed is also very exciting. The silver is [-] catties. If his property does not exceed [-] catties, I plan to Promise him."

Even Lin Hu'er couldn't bear to paint on the ground anymore, she raised her face to look at Chen Mu, her eyes blinked and her mouth opened to swallow an egg.

It turned out that after I slept a few times and reached the position of commander and envoy that I couldn't even dream of in the past, is this what everyone talks about?Silver is calculated by ten thousand catties?

too exaggerated.

"It can't be in Haojing, then Shangchuan Island, Xiachuan Island, or..." Deng Zilong racked his brains and said, "Chicken coop?"

Chen Mu still shook his head and said: "It's not that simple. He intends to create the illusion of his own death to deceive Philip. The fifth batch of sailing fleet will arrive in Tierra del Fuego in three months. He wants our flag in Tierra del Fuego The military helped him sink two of the boats, one full of Indian Affairs Commission officers who were looking for him, and the other full of Peruvian officials, and he should have been on that boat."

"Actually, I want to sink him into the sea as well. The 64 people will multiply in the future and seize human resources. The people of Ming Dynasty will have no shortage of people to reproduce themselves."

"Since what he is asking is to prevent others from finding him, it depends on his performance. If he behaves well, we will send them to the Lion Kingdom. Spain will never find him; if he behaves poorly, even Daming will be killed." Never find him."

　Good morning!
