open sea

Chapter 948 Toyo
With Yang Ce in the seat, the Spanish nobles couldn't say anything.

They said that they did not dare to disturb General Chen entertaining General Yang who came across the sea, hoping to have a more private opportunity in the future to express their desire to serve the court.

But Yang Ce didn't show them any sympathy, telling them to speak quickly and fart quickly. Listening to crappy Chinese is better than speaking Spanish, anyway, everyone can understand it.

Chen Mu actually wanted the Spanish nobles to say something, anyway, he wouldn't care what they said, he just wanted to take this opportunity to observe Yang Ce calmly and secretly.

He didn't know until Yang Tingxiang sent the news from Mexico City that Lin Afeng's pirate army actually had officers from the martial arts hall.

Looking at it now, the years of the Guangzhou Lecture Hall have left an indelible mark on Yang Ce. His stride, standing posture, and sitting posture are still the same as the new officers of the Ming Army. The generals of the Wutang are the same.

But Chen Mu believes that years of pirate career also brought irreversible changes to Yang Ce's body and mind, especially because of Chen Mu's deepest doubts about Yang Ce - the students in the martial arts hall are the proud sons of the Ming Dynasty. , Martial Arts Examination, Martial Arts Scholars, and graduates of the Martial Arts Hall, the class of each martial artist's origin has almost locked [-]% of the ceiling.

Unless ordinary military households from the Banner Army are under the name of the Siyang Military Mansion, it would be great if they can be promoted to deputy thousand households in their lifetime; It's almost come to an end; the military examination is a thousand households, and the Wu Jinshi is a commander.

The lecture hall is a bit special. When you go out to the domestic guards, you will be a thousand households and commanders. If you enter the Siyang military mansion, you will start with a hundred households. But the military mansion continues to expand, and people's luck will improve a lot without knowing it.

The Siyang Military Mansion is the place where senior officers are made.

Just like that Lin Hu'er is a living example of the Siyang Military Mansion making senior officers.

A farmer from Xinhui wanted to avenge his loss of land. By chance, he joined the Nanyang Army. , Deputy Qianhu, and Zheng Qianhu, and now Fu Yuan went to New Spain to be the commander-in-chief, and let him be the commander of the border guards. He is also the commander-in-chief.

Although the commander-in-chief is in charge of one road and has thousands of people under his command, he is still considered the commander-in-chief.

This is what puzzled Chen Mu the most. Why did Yang Ce, who had learned all his skills in the martial arts lecture hall, leave the Nanyang Military Mansion after graduation, where he could easily be promoted, and instead follow Lin Feng to fight the world.

What is "Pearl Secret Casting"?

This is called the secret casting of pearls!
Putting it back in the past, Chen Mu also felt that being the king and hegemony was very majestic, but he has seen it a lot these years. For a minister in charge of foreign affairs in a huge empire that is in the process of rising and expanding, the king... is really nothing .

The gold medal given to him by the emperor is still in his hand, and the Shangfang sword representing the emperor has not yet been used. With these two things, he can become the king himself.

Whatever Lin Feng could give him, Da Ming could easily give him, and what Lin Feng could not give him, Da Ming could also easily give him.

Yang Ce didn't tell the truth to Chen Mu, although in the eyes of the Spanish nobles, the pirate leader of the Han Dynasty who was rampant at sea behaved like a dog licking a dog when he 'had an audience' with the important ministers of the Ming Empire, calling him the principal while talking about his superb decision-making.

But he still didn't say that he joined Lin Feng's command because of the operation of the Nanyang Minister Gao Gong. He just said: "For a while, I was deceived by lard, and I used a military ship in Nanyang to transport two cannons to the Portuguese. , had no choice but to escape.”

The co-author is a deserter.

"This is really covered in lard."

Chen Mu didn't even know what to say, how much money would it take to deliver two cannons to the Portuguese? 200 taels of silver?
If you are already so bad, you can simply kill those Portuguese, cut off your head and snatch the armed merchant ship, and then the imperial court will reward you no less than transporting guns, or you will be promoted directly!

Even if the imperial court doesn’t reward them, if the military officers of the Ming Dynasty clashed with the Portuguese pirates, it doesn’t matter if it’s the Fujian-Guangzhou region or the Nanyang military government, whoever doesn’t stand behind you, the worst is the worst. The goods are not all yours.

Yang Ce didn't know that in Chen Mu's eyes, he had already accounted for both badness and stupidity.

Old man Gao's excuse was too bad.

Yang Ce couldn't help it, the Spaniard was still here, and he also had followers from Han, so he could casually say that he was sent by Gao Gong to follow Lin Feng?
"Anyway, as you said, it is a good thing for us to unite the world. Tell me about the situation in Han."

"Yes, in the past, the king established his capital in Xidacheng. Later, the capital was destroyed by the Persian fleet, and he stationed on Xianlao Lengzu Island in the south of Xidacheng. The local people accepted him and fought a battle with the Persians."

The so-called Xianlao Lengzu Island is Madagascar. On the map of Daming, there are fairy islands everywhere, but there is not a single fairy on the island.

"I have been on the west coast of Africa all the time, mainly to trade with the indigenous tribes for gold. They have a lot of gold. Every few months, King Qiong's fleet will transport the gold back to Xiandao from me, and then from the Western Army Mansion Get the supplies you need."

Chen Mu frowned, their industrial chain sounded a bit weird: "What do you produce in Xiandao, or do you trade the goods bought by Chinese merchants with African natives?"

Yang Ce was dumbfounded by the question, and after a pause, he stammered, "Trade, not that kind of trade."

"Businessmen from England, Spain, and Portugal will always go to Africa, mainly English merchants. They go there to buy people and sell them to the Portuguese in Brazil; I don't like it, so I buy from them."

"I'll keep the boat. As long as they pay the ransom, they can take the people away, sell the goods to the African natives, and transport the gold and silver back."

Yang Ce's word 'purchase' made several Spanish nobles break out in cold sweat.

"That's right." Then Yang Ce said something that frightened them even more. The demon raised his finger and pointed at them: "On the way here, I also captured a hundred or ten of their nobles, just because they all ran away. I wanted to come here to help the imperial court, but I didn’t expect New Spain to be fine.”

Chen Mu really didn't want to show a gaffe of laughter, he tapped his fingers on the table slowly, with a smile on his face that was trying to control but still curled up, and finally knocked on the coffee table and said: "Well, I will take care of your Han country's affairs No, but Daming is now an ally with Spain, don't kill them."

Of course he can control it. In theory, he has the authority granted by Emperor Wanli of the Ming Dynasty. He can control the affairs of all countries in the world, which naturally includes Han.

He just doesn't care.

"Bring the map." The soldiers presented the map, and Chen Mu drew a line on the map and said to Yang Ce: "In the future, if there is any need for Han, you can go to Qilin Guard to trade. If Duke Yin of the Western Army Mansion is unhappy about this, Just give him the picture."

On the picture, Chen Mu drew a big circle, including the whole of Africa, and said: "In the future, this land will be under the responsibility of the Han Dynasty, and the Dongyang Military Government has allowed it; you'd better not go to the northern part of Gibraltar, if you need to go , I will send someone to tell you."

Then Chen Mu drew a line in the middle of Africa and said: "The goods produced on the left side of this line can be sold to the Eastern military government in Han Dynasty; the goods produced on the right side can be sold to the Western military government. The world is so big. It's big enough."

Speaking of which, Chen Mu turned his head and said to several Spanish nobles: "Do me a favor, go back and tell everyone that that sea is no longer called the Atlantic Ocean, but the Great Eastern Ocean, the Eastern Ocean of the Eastern Military Mansion!"

　Good morning!
