Late Ming Dynasty: Conquering the world starting from riding and cutting

In addition to the seal attached to Annan's request, which is an unexpected surprise, the other documents are new developments in several strategic directions!

And things don’t look good!

Zhang Hu on the Eastern Front led a huge fleet composed of five thousand new soldiers to Luzon to regain this land that had been occupied by the Spaniards for many years and made the Chinese shed blood and tears.

When his flagship first appeared in Manila Bay, the soldiers at the forts on the hills on both sides discovered the very ostentatious three-headed tiger logo. This was Zhang Hu's unique naval flagship.

Suddenly the panicked people in the city of Manila sounded the alarm. After the alarm, the soldiers on the fort consciously sat on the ground of the fort, placing the gunpowder and shells separately, waiting for the Keelung Army to come to receive them. This was Orders they had received before.

"Fire! Why not fire?!" When Zhang Hu learned from the sailors the shocking news that the entire Manila army had surrendered, he was so angry that he jumped up on the deck of the bridge and cursed.

"These eggless bastards, where do I get the credit for not resisting?"

The first mate also shook his head with a helpless smile and said: "Sir! General Amorim (see above) has launched a large-scale resistance movement in Luzon a few years ago. Now Manila has long been unable to make ends meet. Recently, we have Relations with Spain have eased, so they simply surrendered!"

"What a bad luck!"

Outside Manila, Zhang Hu was furious when he saw Count Sarile, the Spanish governor in Manila, who was greeting him on the pier with a white flag and a group of civil and military officials leading a group of civil and military officials.

Zhang Hu grabbed the earl's little tuxedo. If someone hadn't grabbed him by the side, our Commander Zhang's big slap would have been on the fat face of earl Charelle.

"General Zhang, I'm here to surrender. Do you think it's too late for me to surrender?" Mr. Sharile looked at Zhang Hu innocently, thinking that he thought he was too slow to move.

"To beat you up! I came here with forty ships! There are thousands of sailors alone! I originally planned to practice my skills here with you, but before I took action, you bitch raised the white flag and surrendered. ! Are you interested? !" Zhang Hu felt extremely unhappy that he had gone to waste.

Seeing this, Count Sarile gave full play to his characteristics of being a noble among gangsters and a gangster among nobles. He lowered his head to Zhang Hu's ear and whispered to him, "General, I know this is my fault. , in order to apologize to you, I have a gift for you.”

"What gift?! Is there anything to say about the gift?!" Zhang Hu scolded this uneducated Western Red Mao Yi, feeling a sense of cultural superiority in his heart.

The culture of the Kingdom of Heaven cannot be learned by Westerners like you!

"Yes, yes! I am wrong. I am not good at learning Chinese now. I beg you, general, to let me go!"

"Forget it, forget it, bring me the gift and let me take a look!" Zhang Hu didn't care too much.

As the Spanish governor in Luzon, Sarile naturally knew some secrets within the empire.

Not long ago, he received a letter. This is a letter sent from the Viceroyalty of Peru. It says that a Spanish fleet has transported a large amount of gold and silver from Peru and is going to the East for trade. The materials and profits obtained will be transported to Spain by the fleet to support The Empire is engaged in a holy war on the continent of Europa.

"Huh? Is the news true?!"

When Zhang Hu heard that a fleet transporting gold and silver was coming, he immediately released his iron-like hands and hugged Sharile's neck. The two of them were as good as a pair of brothers reunited after a long separation after countless hardships. Generally speaking, there is no longer the smell of gunpowder before.

"It's true, General!"

"Then how much gold and silver will be transported this time?" He talked to Sharil in the same tone as talking to his own brothers. The intimacy of his tone made the people around him feel their hair stand on end and their skins covered with goosebumps!

Our Tiger General is really here to make money, everything is clear!

"When the fleet departed from Peru, there were about three million taels of gold and about seven million taels of silver. In addition, there seemed to be some gems such as emeralds and agates. The letter said there were seven or eight boxes in total."

Zhang Hu laughed proudly in his heart. Three million taels of gold, seven million taels of silver, and several boxes of gems. Even if these properties fall into the hands of the Keelung Army at a 50% discount, this year's military expenditures, together with next year's I’m afraid you don’t have all the military spending?

This trip to Luzon was not in vain. Although it did not achieve the effect of military training, it can be considered that the gains outweighed the losses by reaping the rewards in the east!

"Okay! Okay! Okay!" Zhang Hu laughed wildly and patted Sharile on the shoulder, laughing wildly.

"When I get this treasure, I will reward you in accordance with the regulations! You will be rewarded for your merit!"

"Thank you, General!" Count Sarile, the former governor of the Spanish Empire in Manila, bowed to Zhang Hu gracefully, and then respectfully invited Zhang Hu and the officers of the Keelung Navy to enter the city.

"Dad, did Zhang Xiaohu succeed?" Little Ling'er, who was listening to his father's naval story with his eyes blinking curiously, was anxiously urging Qin Hao to tell him the result.

"Girl! Don't have no rules!" Bai Ling'er scolded his daughter with a fierce face, "Either call him General Zhang, Commander Zhang, or call him Uncle Zhang. How can you call someone like that? There are no rules at all?"

After listening to her mother's reprimand, Xiao Ling'er just stuck out her tongue in a strange way. She had long been accustomed to her mother's nagging, and she just repeated it like a parrot.

"Excuse me, Dad, Zhang Hu, the commander of the left wing of the Keelung Navy, led the naval gunboat to Luzon Island and led the army to fight the Spanish Navy. I don't know the outcome?"

Seeing the little girl's adult expression, everyone smiled.

Qin Hao laughed for a while, took out three things from his pocket and held them in his hands, "Guess what is in my hand?"

"Could it be the royal seal of King Luzon?!" Xiao Ling'er confidently said to her father.

"Haha! Where did the king of Luzon come from?" Qin Hao smiled, "Guess again!"

"What is it?"

"Is it the trophy of Commander Zhang?" Xiao Ling'er was a little unsure, but still gave the answer.

"The sky is spirited, the earth is spirited. The Supreme Lord is as anxious as the law!"

After Qin Hao made a fool of himself, he spread his hands outwards. In his palms, three emeralds radiated lovely light under the sunlight.

"Acridine!" Everyone exclaimed, "What a treasure this is!"

In recent years, as the Keelung Army has controlled the east-west routes, it has almost monopolized trade with the Europeans, and collected taxes on the routes, it can be said that it has seen gold and silver.

However, I have never seen such a large emerald with such a lustrous color!

"This is the booty sent back by Zhang Hu. Along with these pieces of emeralds, there is also an intact Spanish treasure fleet. Half of our navy has also returned."

"These three pieces are of the best quality. Zhang Hu specially sent them as gifts, one for each of you three little guys." Qin Hao took out a piece and put it in Xiao Bailing's hand.

"I don't want this piece, daddy." Xiao Bai Ling snatched the three pieces from Qin Hao's hand and started picking them one by one, making everyone laugh.
