Chapter 1136 The Situation in Nanyang

Upon hearing this, Liang Xiaozhen breathed a sigh of relief, thinking in her heart that she was almost frightened.In fact, think about it, in Nanyang, there is no one whose strength can match his own.If someone who doesn't have eyesight dares to steal the business of Mr. Liu, let's see what price he will pay!
The others were greatly disappointed. They were disappointed in the blink of an eye after anticipation, and their emotions fluctuated. This made them very angry, and someone reprimanded them immediately.

"Barber, talking in your sleep! When will the imperial court control those of us who go to sea?"

"That's right, in the 35th year of Wanli, so many Ming people died, did the court take care of it? Count on the court? The sun is really going to come out from the west!"

"In the eyes of the imperial court, all of us who go to sea are merchants, low-born, understand? That's what the official documents of the imperial court say! Do we care about our lives? Stop daydreaming!"

"I said the haircut, you couldn't be out of your mind with fright, did you? I felt a little weird when I was scared to cry before, but now I'm so stupid, and dare to say that the imperial court sent reinforcements? What a big joke! "

"..."

After listening to so many reprimands, Zhang Wu was surprisingly not angry.Because he can empathize, even before yesterday, if someone said that, he himself would not believe it.

Therefore, he raised his hands to signal them to be quiet. Although his action was not effective and few people paid attention to him, his voice was still a little low. Zhang Wu didn't pay attention to it, and immediately raised his voice and said: "I said everything Really, as long as we can persevere, the imperial court has a large army in Annan, and they have come to rescue us!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the uproar suddenly became louder!

"Cheating ghosts! Annan has a court army? Are you dreaming?"

"It's serious! Even if you want to make it up, can you make it up with a more reliable one!"

"That's right, besides, how could the imperial court know that the Spaniards were going to attack us and that we were in trouble, so they sent troops over? You thought it was your neighbor, and you could just call out to greet us?"

"..."

Among them, Li Jiacheng didn't say anything, because he had a big business and had many sources of news, and he also heard some news that the army seemed to have captured Annan.He was a little strange, this barber cuts hair in his shop all day long, how could he know this?Logically speaking, there should be very few people who know this news!

But Zhang Wu saw that almost everyone was accusing him of being a liar, and he was a little anxious, so he swore loudly: "I'm right, it's absolutely true, if there is even the slightest falsehood, there will be thunderbolts from the sky, and you will die! "

Or he was a little surprised by his expression and words, and the noisy meeting hall suddenly became quieter.

Seeing this, Zhang Wu seized the time to explain: "Really, I reported to the emperor, and the emperor immediately sent troops when he learned that we were in trouble..."

Before he could finish his words, the meeting hall that had just quieted down became noisy again.

"To report to the emperor, is it the person whose surname is Huang Ming?"

"Come on, there's a lunatic here, drive him away!"

"..."

This time, Li Jiacheng, who was a little suspicious at first, didn't have any doubts anymore. He thought in his heart, dare to say that this is a lunatic, and it happened that Annan was right, and he really almost believed it!
And Zhang Wu looked a little stupid when he saw all this. No one believed him when he told the truth!

But when he turned his head and thought about it, he immediately understood.Because none of them knew that their homeland had undergone earth-shaking changes.Today's emperor is also different from all previous emperors!They are still looking at Da Ming with old eyes, no wonder they don't understand!
But in this way, Zhang Wu will be worried. What should I say to make them believe it?

However, before he could come up with a solution, Li Jiacheng stopped everyone from venting their emotions. Instead, he stopped in front of Liang Xiaozhen and said very sincerely: "The third master, can you allow us another half a day? There are several wealthy businessmen, now Still counting on the Spaniards, who probably won't pay. Give it a little more time and let's talk."

"That's right, the third leader, even if we agree, we still have time to collect money!" White Beard also stood in front of Liang Xiaozhen, almost begging.

The fat man also squeezed over to block the way, afraid that Liang Xiaozhen would leave, and begged: "The third master, for the sake of our compatriots, give me some time?"

Before Liang Xiaozhen said anything, Zhang Wu interrupted and said, "To ask for so much money is obviously a robber's nature. Here comes the robbery..."

Hearing what he said, everyone in the room was furious. They turned around to look at Zhang Wu, and started yelling and cursing.

"Who stole the money? Don't talk nonsense, it's also a common practice to open silver!"

"Shut up, who is the robber? The court is the robber!"

"Yes, it's better for us to trust Master Liu than to trust the imperial court!"

"..."

Some of them yelled and cursed angrily, most of them were afraid that the third master would get angry when they heard about it.

However, what they never expected was that instead of being angry, Liang Xiaozhen showed a puzzled expression, pushed aside the people blocking him, walked up to Zhang Wu, and asked curiously: "Are you from the East Factory of the Imperial Court? "

This question stunned everyone present, including Zhang Wu himself, and then subconsciously shook his head.

"Then you are from Jinyiwei?" Liang Xiaozhen asked again after hearing this.

Zhang Wu still heard it vaguely, and still shook his head, but this time he asked, "What do you mean?"

Liang Xiaozhen was still puzzled, and instead of answering his question, she asked again: "Then how can you contact the imperial court immediately, Your Majesty?"

Their conversation made the entire meeting room seem very quiet.Li Jiacheng and the others looked at Zhang Wu and then at Liang Xiaozhen, feeling that they couldn't understand.

"I can't say it!" Zhang Wu was a little suspicious that the pirate in front of him probably knew about the chat group, right?Thinking of this, he added, "Anyway, I can contact the emperor, even if the emperor can't, I can still contact the chief assistant, or the governor of the three provinces of Zhejiang, Fujian and Guangdong..."

Crazy, crazy again!This was the common thought of the people in the chamber, but Liang Xiaozhen was not included.

Although he was still a little skeptical, he knew that Dongchang or Jinyiwei had people with this ability.

Liang Xiaozhen was arrested by Dongchang before and then released back as an insider. Although no one doubted him, he dared not even sleep with others. He was afraid that he would say something in his dream that he shouldn't. of.Seeing a person with such a magical ability now moved his mind.

So, he turned his head and looked at it, and then said to Li Jiacheng: "Mr. Li, this person is talking nonsense. I have something to ask to clarify. Please give me a quiet room!"

what's the situation?When everyone heard this, a crow flew over their foreheads with a series of question marks.

Although he couldn't understand Liang Xiaozhen's intentions, Li Jiacheng immediately agreed, no matter what the third family wanted to ask the barber, at least he would not leave for the time being, so that they would have a chance to discuss further.

So, they discussed raising money again in the conference hall, and this was a last resort. Calculated by money and fate, after all, life is worth more, although this money can make them almost have nothing.But Liang Xiaozhen took Zhang Wu, who was also a little puzzled, to a remote and quiet room.

In the room, when Zhang Wuyi entered, Liang Xiaozhen immediately closed the door.Even before closing the door, he put his head up to see if anyone outside might be able to hear the conversation in the room.This action of his made Zhang Wu who was standing in the room very puzzled. He didn't know what it meant to be so mysterious and sneaky.
After closing the door, Liang Xiaozhen's attitude turned out to be much better. She didn't have the arrogance she had in the conference hall just now, at least she had an equal attitude. She smiled and led Zhang Wu to the innermost part of the room, and then asked Zhang Wu: "You said that you can directly contact people in the Ming country, is that true?"

From his words and deeds, Zhang Wu found that it seemed that the third master might believe what he said, so he couldn't help being a little curious, and at the same time nodded vigorously: "Of course, I have already sworn that it is true!"

Liang Xiaozhen rolled her eyes when she heard this, and asked again: "Is it true that the imperial court will send troops to Luzon?"

"Of course it's true!" Zhang Wu nodded without hesitation, but he immediately remembered that the person in front of him was the third leader of Liu Xiang's pirate gang, and he was the enemy of the court, so he immediately became vigilant, stared at Liang Xiaozhen and asked said, "What do you want to do?"

Liu Xiang's power, in their view, is not insignificant.At that time, when they swarmed like Nanyang, the momentum was so great that even the Spaniards were nervous about it.After all, behind these pirates, there are still Dutchmen, whose strength cannot be underestimated.

If they knew that the imperial court was going to send troops to Luzon, what the hell would they do?After all, they are pirates!
Thinking of this, Zhang Wu decided to keep his mouth shut and let Liang Xiaozhen guess.But he didn't expect that Liang Xiaozhen's next words took him by surprise.

Only Liang Xiaozhen whispered: "I believe you, I am from Dongchang, can you help me contact the factory owner?"

After Zhang Wu was stunned for a while, he confirmed in a low voice of surprise: "You...you are the Dongchang fan?"

In fact, Liang Xiaozhen is not a fan of Dongchang, but an insider in Dongchang's hands.But at this time, he nodded, and then asked: "Can you contact the factory owner for me? I have news to report."

While speaking, one of his hands had touched the dagger in his sleeve. If Zhang Wu was just lying, he wouldn't mind killing someone to silence him.

Zhang Wu heard this, shook his head and said: "I don't know what kind of factory owner, I just said that I can be with the emperor, the chief assistant..."

Seeing him shaking his head, Liang Xiaozhen almost pulled out the dagger from her sleeve.But when he heard him say that he could contact the emperor and the chief assistant, he held it down again. Wouldn't it be better if he could have a direct relationship with the emperor?

Thinking of this, there was a kind of eagerness in his eyes, and he immediately asked Zhang Wudao: "Then can you help contact the emperor? Let me tell you that I, Liang Xiaozhen, the third head of Liu Xiang's bandits, was lurking under the order of the factory owner, and I have important news to report to you." .”

After Zhang Wu heard this, he was a little puzzled. The third master turned out to be someone from the imperial court?He doesn't believe it!But seeing Liang Xiaozhen's expression, he felt it was real, so he nodded and said, "Then let me try!"

So, under Liang Xiaozhen's attention, Zhang Wu entered the chat group, and in the "Luzon Crisis" chat group, imitating the previous chief assistant, he said: "@普拉何生, Your Majesty, there is a person named Liang Xiaozhen, who is Liu Xiang, the third head of the pirates, said that he was ordered by the factory master to lurk, and now there is important news to report."

Several people saw his words, but Emperor Chongzhen was also @, and they couldn't help being a little surprised when they saw the news.Wang Chengen was responsible for the previous affairs, he really didn't know very well.

Liu Xiang and his gang of pirates were driven to Nanyang in a planned way.Now that there is news, he is naturally interested in knowing it.But before that, he still pulled Wang Chengen into the temporary group, and then asked: "Wang Daban, the person you sent to lurk on Liu Xiang's side is Liang Xiaozhen?"

When Wang Chengen saw it, he was taken aback for a moment, feeling a little sudden, but naturally he would not hide what the emperor asked, and immediately replied: "The servant caught him in Fujian before..."

When he explained the situation, it proved that Liang Xiaozhen was indeed sent back to lurk by him. After completing the task of guiding the pirates into Nanyang, he almost forgot about Liang Xiaozhen. He didn't expect that the emperor would know about it now. It was really unexpected. !

After Emperor Chongzhen confirmed that there was such a thing, he asked, "What's the news?"

Zhang Wu was also confirmed in the group, so he apologized, quit the chat group and asked: "The emperor called the factory owner to prove that you are there. What's the news?"

When Liang Xiaozhen heard that she was able to listen to Datian, she couldn't help being overjoyed, and quickly explained the situation.

Therefore, Zhang Wu reported in the group: "Return to Your Majesty, Liang Xiaozhen said that after the Liu Xiang pirates came to Nanyang, they joined forces with the Dutch to attack the Portuguese entrenched in the Strait of Malacca, defeated them, and occupied Temasek. Only later did I know that some Many Ming people were taken here by the Portuguese as slaves, but now they are all working for Liu Xiang."

In the original history, the Portuguese had been at war with the natives in the Strait of Malacca, but later the Dutch, the Portuguese’s rival, intervened to help the natives fight against the Portuguese and compete for control of the Strait of Malacca. The situation was not conducive to the Portuguese.By the middle of the seventeenth century, the Portuguese were finally driven out of the Straits of Malacca.

And on this plane, because Liu Xiang and other pirates who went to Nanyang made good friends with the Dutch, after discussing, they went to fight the Portuguese in the Malacca Strait together.The addition of this new force defeated the Portuguese in one fell swoop, and thus Liu Xiang and other pirates also had a stronghold in Nanyang.

After Liu Xiang occupied Temasek, he was ambitious and has been expanding his power.Malaysia, which just happened to be later generations, was divided into many small countries at this time.Therefore, Liu Xiang's pirate group sent people to plunder around the island of Malaysia, and even went ashore at one point.It is also for this reason that the Ming people in Luzon were able to contact Pirate Liu Xiang.
