Daming: From the end of Hongwu

407 Chapter 405 - The Sea Waves Rises With the Wind

In the 30th year of Hongwu, the Manjaboyi Kingdom attacked and destroyed the Three Buddha Qi Kingdom, which led to chaos in the Three Buddha Qi Kingdom. Among them, a large number of Chinese living in the Three Buddha Qi Kingdom supported Guangdong Nanhai Liang Daoming as the new Three Buddha Qi King. The territory of Foqi in the north is resisting the invasion of Majapahit troops.

In the past ten years, because a large number of Cantonese people crossed the sea to defect to Liang Daoming, they gradually gained a firm foothold in this area.

In the third year of Yongle, Liang Daoming accepted Daming's recruitment and returned to the country, leaving his deputy Shi Jinqing as a vassal to manage and lead the local soldiers and civilians.

At the same time, when the old Sanfoqi dynasty fell, Chen Zuyi in Palembang also summoned a group of pirates to make himself king, but this guy is obviously a guy with no lower limit. There was a strong breath of a pirate leader.

Like other small countries in the West, he went to pay tribute to the Ming Dynasty, but he set out empty-handed, robbed all the way, gave Zhu Di whatever he got, and did a good business with empty gloves and white wolves. I don't intend to come in vain, but I still grab it all the way back.

In fact, just grab it.

The problem is that he even dared to snatch the envoys from other small countries that paid tribute to Zhu Di.

Play Zhu Di as a fool openly and aboveboard.

So Zhu Di was not used to Chen Zuyi, and directly withdrew Chen Zuyi's kingdom canonization, turning him into a pirate leader. Since then, Chen Zuyi has also broken his cans, and the pirate business has become more vigorous. He often implements the Sanguang policy. No matter who it is, they will rob, kill and burn them all, but he has become more and more powerful by doing this.

This has made the neighboring small countries miserable.

It was also for this reason that Zhen Wu was able to knock a big bamboo stick in Champa back then.

After Zheng He led the Great Ming Armada to set off, all the small western countries were so happy that they could not wait to set off firecrackers to celebrate. Everyone was cheering that their suzerain country, the invincible Ming Dynasty, had made a move.

But to their disappointment, when Zheng He's fleet rushed to Palembang, they did not find the main force of Chen Zuyi. The fleet embarked on the journey again.

A few years passed in a blink of an eye.

Now that Zheng He's fleet appeared in Malacca again, when the invincible fleet landed on the sea, all the surrounding kingdoms put their minds and eyes on it.

……

Palembang at the moment.

Chen Zuyi led a group of pirates to eat and drink while discussing this matter.

At this time, a cursing voice sounded.

"Grandma, I'm angry when I mention Daming. It's not that we don't give them money. Why do they think our silver is dirty? As for bringing other kingdoms to crowd us out." A pirate said angrily.

Another pirate said, "The problem is, our money is really not clean."

The pirate who just started talking was breathless, but he refused to admit defeat, and said with a stiff neck: "You don't care if it's clean or not, just say it or not."

"It is indeed given."

"Then he, Daming, is nosy."

This…

It seems very reasonable.

They sometimes don't do anything to ships that have paid a large amount of protection fees.

This is the rule!
"Shut up for me." Chen Zuyi took a sip of wine and cursed, his expression full of gloom.

The military adviser at the side knew Chen Zuyi's worry at the moment, he sighed, and asked: "Boss, now Zheng He and the others are back, what should we do, you have to make up your mind, if you plan to avoid it, we It needs to be prepared earlier.”

The words fell.

All the pirates in the room fell silent.

After half an hour.

"Avoid? I can't avoid it forever."

Chen Zuyi's gloomy voice sounded, the corners of his mouth curled up, and he said with a ferocious expression: "There must be a lot of treasures on Zheng He's ship, if we rob him, it will take ten years for us to snatch such a large sum of good things, should we just let them go? "

All the pirates were shocked.

Grab Daming's treasure ship?

They couldn't help trembling just thinking about the fleet that covered the sky and the sun they had seen before. On the endless sea, one after another huge treasure ships were lined up in the ocean, surrounded by dense numbers of ships. Endless range of smaller ships.

Is this something they can make up their minds?

The military division said, "Boss, isn't this too risky?"

"how?"

Chen Zuyi said coldly: "Afraid of death?"

All the pirates bowed their heads with shame on their faces.

Only the master said: "No, I'm just worried that there is no chance of winning."

At this time, Chen Zuyi slapped the table and stood up and said: "You don't have to worry about this. I have thought about this matter a long time ago. Although there are many ships in the Ming Dynasty, most of the boat operators are new to the ocean, and most of them are masters of rivers. How can they be as good at fighting as we are?" ?”

The military division frowned and thought about it.

All the other pirates became angry for a while.

Chen Zuyi went on to say: "Although the ships of the Ming Dynasty are large, they move slowly and are unfamiliar with the terrain. Moreover, the Navy of the Ming Dynasty has not fought for many years, and its reputation is all due to the horse infantry. How can there be no chance of winning? Besides, Zheng He is just a eunuch after all, what ability can he have, why can't we snatch him?!"

After a moment of silence.

There was a heated discussion in the room immediately.

"That's right, we've been on the water all our lives, so are we still afraid of those landlubbers?"

"Yes, Daming's treasure ship is as valuable as a mountain. If you don't want to grab it, why should you grab it?"

"Stealing him for a dog's day, at worst, he will be killed."

Complicated discussions continued one after another, and the pirates were once again encouraged by Chen Zuyi to reveal their fierce aura in the past.

They were all blood-licking people.

Don't dare to do anything.

Chen Zuyi raised his hand and pressed it, and when everyone calmed down, he said: "What's more, I don't plan to grab it hard, this time I plan to use some wisdom."

The military division looked at Chen Zuyi.

Chen Zuyi smiled confidently: "We feigned surrender!"

……

A few days later, Shi Jinqing of Sanfo Qi noticed some movements of Chen Zuyi. He thought of the Ming Fleet stationed in Malacca, and felt a little uneasy.

After thinking about it, he felt that it would be most appropriate to send someone to notify Zheng He.

But who to send?

If the candidate is not chosen well, Zheng He may not take it seriously.

In the end, Shi Jinqing called his son Shi Jisun, but he didn't expect that Shi Jisun didn't want to suffer from the bitter cold. No matter how Shi Jinqing told him that the matter was important, Shi Jisun didn't want to go.

A woman about 20 years old with a refreshing and generous appearance walked in. Her figure was very well-proportioned and slender. From her walking, she seemed to feel the tightness and strength of her legs, and she could also see her legs exposed in the air from her neck. Wheat complexion.

Obviously, this is a woman who is good at water sports, and she must have a strong and vigorous skill.

"Father, let me go." The woman said.

"you?"

The woman nodded seriously.

Shi Jinqing frowned and thought about it. Compared with his son, he believed in his daughter's ability more, but a daughter is always a daughter.

He looked up at his son again.

Shi Jisun pretended not to see, avoiding his gaze, but when he turned his eyes to look at his daughter, the daughter's bright eyes showed vitality despite hardships and hardships.

Shi Jinqing sighed.

"Okay, then you go there, but this time the matter is very important, you should bring some more experts there." Shi Jinqing said to her daughter.

The woman nods.

Afterwards, Shi Jinqing explained the matter to his daughter in detail.

Wait until he finishes explaining.

The woman went down to select the manpower vigorously. Shi Jinqing looked at her daughter's back, and heard the words of "Second Sister Shi" from the guards who warmly supported her when she came outside. She didn't know she was lucky to have such a daughter , or should lament why there are women like this.

This woman named Second Sister Shi prepared everything quickly, and then headed towards Malacca by boat with her hands. The wind and waves along the way were relatively calm, and she arrived in Malacca smoothly.

But not long after she landed, she found that a group of Chen Zuyi's subordinates had also appeared here.

She made some inquiries, and found out about Chen Zuyi's desire to surrender to Ming Dynasty.

how can that be? !
With Chen Zuyi's cunning temperament, it is definitely a false surrender!

Second Sister Shi immediately thought of this.

But the problem is that Daming doesn't know Chen Zuyi's temperament.

Second Sister Shi frowned, her mission here was to remind Daming to be careful about Chen Zuyi, if Chen Zuyi sent someone to inform Daming that he was going to surrender to him, how could Daming believe her words? !
After all, in her impression, Daming is so proud.

What should I do?

Are we going to allow Chen Zuyi to harm Daming, and then cause trouble for Xiyang?

No.

must be blocked.

There must be no problems with Da Ming's fleet, because only Da Ming can destroy Chen Zuyi in this world.

Second Sister Shi's brows flickered.

So... only to kill these people.

……

at the same time.

Zheng He was talking to the king here. Speaking of this king, he was called Xili Balsula. He had sent envoys to Daming long before, saying that he would like to be a county. So before Zheng He went to the West, Zhu Di sent the envoys to Daming. The decree was given to Zheng He, and it was read to him when Zheng He first came here.

Zhu Di named him King Managa, and he was no longer under Siam.

In other words, Malacca belongs to Daming at this moment.

And no one dared to have an opinion.

Zheng He was discussing with King Manlajia at this moment that Daming wanted to build a city and set up warehouses here, and this was also what Zhen Wu and Zhu Di discussed earlier.

The Strait of Malacca must be firmly under control.

After the city was built, troops would be sent to garrison, and warehouses were set up to stockpile food and daily necessities, etc., and it was also convenient for Zheng He to sail to the West in the future.

King Manraja responded with a smile: "Don't worry, the imperial envoy, now you and I belong to the same family. I will definitely take the matter of building the city to heart, and I will never delay the progress. Moreover, I have already ordered it to be done. With cooperation, even after the fleet returns to Daming, those who stay will treat it kindly."

Zheng He nodded, but after thinking for a while, he said again: "Before I came out, Your Majesty once said, let me tell the nations not to bully the few or the weak. You need to know that those who bully the weak have their virtues at a disadvantage. It will be hated by everyone, and the strong will be stronger, and those who bully the weak will inevitably not be bullied by others in the future. If this goes on, everyone will hold hatred in their hearts, and they will be conquered every year. It will be a disaster for the people of the country, so your majesty I hope that all countries will remember the friendship, and everyone will share the blessing of peace.”

"Xiao Wang will keep in mind what His Majesty the Emperor said." King Managa said, cupping his hands towards the north.

Zheng He smiled and said, "Don't be nervous. I didn't tell you alone. I have said this to other countries. In the future, my Ming fleet will often patrol the sea area to protect everyone from being violated."

This remark made King Manajia happy, but the next moment, his face was a little guilty: "The other countries are still good, but Chen Zuyi..."

"You don't have to worry about this person, I have plans in mind." Zheng He said.

King Manlajia breathed a sigh of relief, and smiled completely.

Zheng He said with a smile: "For this return trip, Your Majesty can find more people to take my Daming Treasure Ship and go to Daming with me. In addition to the tribute items, you might as well prepare more exquisite and tight goods. If you meet someone you like in Daming can also be exchanged.”

"I have always had this intention." King Manajia said with a smile, "I am planning to find an opportunity to talk to the imperial envoy."

"Haha, then we have a good understanding."

King Manraja laughed too.

Then, after the two talked for a while, Zheng He bid farewell to King Managa, and returned to his residence with an interpreter.

At this time, he looked at the sky, thought about it, got up and walked towards the room of the commander-in-chief of the middle camp.

Their configuration for this trip was a general officer with the seal of Marshal Zhengxi, a deputy commander-in-chief with the seal of Deputy Marshal Zhengxi, one vanguard on the left and right, and the seal of the left and right vanguard general Zhengxixi. .

Below that is the five battalion governors: Zhongdu, Zuodu, Youdu, Zuodu, and Xingdu, each bearing the seal of the governor of the west. Hang the seal of the deputy governor of the West.

The governor of Zhongying was named Zheng Tun, and his nickname was Dunzi. He used to be the deputy Qianhu next to Zhen Wu.

In fact, according to common sense, Dunzi is not qualified enough, but Zheng He's fleet has a lot of positions, in the final analysis, there are only 3 to [-] people, and it is not difficult for Zhen Wu to be a commander of the Central Battalion.

After Zheng He found Dunzi, he asked, "Xiao Meng hasn't come back yet?"

Dunzi shook his head and said, "No, but it should be soon."

"You're not afraid that something will happen to him, after all, he's going to pick up Chen Zuyi." Zheng He said angrily.

"fine."

Dunzi said reassuringly: "I'm not boasting. My family members are talented when they serve in the army. I believe you have seen it in the past two years. How about it? In the past two years, with the storms at sea and the investigation on the shore, many things have happened to Xiaomeng, and there are still problems with someone else? What's more, Xiaomeng's side is either someone from my country or Ning Anbosai. There are a few people sent by his father-in-law, and I am envious of all the martial arts."

Speaking of this, Dunzi became more energetic: "Especially Liao Yu and the others, my country's Duke wanted to come from Ping Jiangbo's navy. Tell me about this arrangement. If something goes wrong with this little thing, Is that okay?"

Zheng He thought about it, and then smiled and said: "Don't forget that there is actually you, the second general Heng Ha who is beside Zhao Guogong, also let him go to take care of that kid. Speaking of which, I envy him for his good life, but Xiao Meng is also up to date. He is good at martial arts, with a bit of Zhao Guogong's vigor on his body, he not only dares to fight, but also never messes up when he does things."

Tunzi nodded approvingly.

Afterwards, Dunzi thought about the business, and changed the subject: "By the way, Chen Zuyi sent someone to discuss the matter of surrendering with us through the people below us, and the general no longer thinks about it?"

"consider?"

Zheng He smiled. Zheng He, who was gentle and refined in the past, showed the coldness of a general at this time: "It was discussed before, since Chen Zuyi dared to feign surrender, let him lead the main force to come out and catch them all. What is there to think about!"

……

At the same time, Xiao Qi led a hundred people five miles outside the city, and waited for half an hour, but still did not wait for the person Chen Zuyi sent to negotiate with him.

Xiao Qi is now nineteen or twenty years old. Not to mention his handsome appearance, he has become more capable after years of experience. His eyes are slightly condensed at this moment.

At this moment, a detective ran over, saying that there were 60 to [-] people fighting privately not far ahead, who seemed to be Chen Zuyi's men, and asked Xiaoqi for instructions on what to do.

Xiaoqi's eyebrows brightened: "What else can I do, persuade me to fight." After finishing speaking, he took the lead and walked forward.

When he came to the private fighting place, seeing that the other party had beaten them hard enough, there were already about twenty corpses lying on the ground, Xiao Qi waved his hand directly and said: "Separate them for me, and arrest them all."

The soldiers responded.

Seeing the situation, the two parties in the private fight pulled away in horror, and then they were surrounded by the Ming army soldiers, taking them down one by one.

Only two people are still fighting stubbornly, and one of them is actually a woman.

Xiao Qi smiled with interest, shook his spear, leaped down from the horse, and rushed towards the two sides quickly. When he got close, he shot into the battle circle of both sides.

He is very skillful in spear dancing. He learned martial arts from Zhen Wu since he was a child. He dare not say how invincible he is with bow, horse, spear and sword, and few people can match him. Therefore, after a few moves, Xiao Qi repelled both of them heavily. Take a few steps.

Seeing the two men pulling away, the soldiers of the Ming Dynasty quickly rushed forward. They were all elite soldiers, and they cooperated quite tacitly, and quickly controlled the two of them.

Seeing that the important matter has been decided, Xiaoqi put away the spear, and then looked at the man first: "Liu Xiaoji?"

"Yes, yes, I was sent by King Chen to discuss with the generals how to attach." The man nodded repeatedly.

Xiao Qi said with a smile: "That's my own." Then he ordered his subordinates: "Let go."

But this scene was angered by the eyes of the woman.

She was the second sister Shi who came to remind Daming to be careful of Chen Zuyi. She saw that Xiao Qi let go of the enemy regardless of good or bad, but still controlled her. Confused egg.

And it seemed that Daming had already trusted Chen Zuyi.

Believe it without investigation, all the people in Daming are fucking idiots.

Bunch of idiots!

She quickly said: "General, I hope you will think more, Chen Zuyi has always been cunning, and his words of attachment must not be true."

Xiao Qi frowned, he knew Zheng He's strategy to lure the snake out of the cave, so he couldn't help but worry that this woman would ruin their big event.

But he can't kill him with a single blow. After all, the master who can fight pirates should not be a bad person.

so what should I do now?
At this moment, Liu Xiaoji's heart skipped a beat, and he muttered in his heart, where did the little girl come from, to want to ruin their big event, he hurriedly cried to Xiao Qi: "General, you have to make the decision for us, our King Chen Sincerely wanting to belong to Daming, we sent us here to discuss with Daming when and how to join, how could the details be fake, but just after we got here, this group of people rushed out to kill us regardless of Sanqi 21 , Obviously they don’t want us to become one family, what do they mean? They are provoking our Daming, and they must be taught a lesson.”

"It's time to learn." Xiao Qi glared fiercely at Second Sister Shi.

Second Sister Shi was going to be mad at Xiao Qi's every move, why did she come here all the way across the sea?Isn't it to remind Daming?
The results of it?
Not only does Daming not know good people, but he wants to teach her a lesson.

Second Sister Shi hated to have to take care of Daming's mess, but she thought of Xiyang, so she finally held back her breath and said, "I am Shi Jinqing's daughter, I am not an enemy, we are also people from the territory of Daming, this time I am Entrusted by my father, to remind Daming to be careful about Chen Zuyi..."

However, the words are not finished yet.

Xiao Qi suddenly yelled and interrupted: "Presumptuous, hinder my Da Ming's affairs, if you are someone else, I will probably forgive you, but since you are a member of my Da Ming's land, you are not afraid that under the law, I will cut off your tree. Head?!"

Second Sister Shi was dumbfounded.

Liu Xiaoji was overjoyed, and urged: "General, for this kind of person who knows the law and violates the law, he should be beheaded to make him a typical example. Otherwise, what prestige does our Ming Dynasty have to deter other countries?"

Xiao Qi turned to look at Liu Xiaoji.

Liu Xiaoji looked at Xiao Qi who was stern and silent, and felt a little scared for no reason. It even felt like seeing Chen Zuyi.

Just when Liu Xiaoji was feeling uneasy, Xiao Qi laughed again.

This smile melted like ice and snow.

Xiao Qi said: "That's right, it's time to kill Ming Zhengdian." After speaking, Xiao Qi groaned and drew out the long knife at his waist.

Second Sister Shi looked at the bright long knife in astonishment, and it slowly rested on her neck. She felt the coldness coming from the long knife, and felt so close to death for the first time.

She still couldn't believe it.

Can't.

She wouldn't just die in such a daze.

Second Sister Shi just wanted to speak out to argue again.

But at this moment, she felt the long knife provoking her chin again, and then she heard a sentence that was a bit unruly and refreshing, but it was quite inappropriate.

"This girl is a bit dark, but she looks quite upright. It's a pity to kill her like this." Then, Xiao Qi's lazy words sounded: "How about this, Liao Yu, take me back, I will Let's see if we can clean it up, and then decide whether to kill or not."

Second Sister Shi's eyebrows were suddenly filled with anger.

What's the meaning? !

"Dog thief, what do you mean by that?" Second Sister Shi yelled, no longer caring about respect and politeness.

However, at this moment, Xiaoqi stopped talking to Second Sister Shi, he hugged Liu Xiaoji and said: "Everyone is a man, after seeing our general, we shouldn't sue."

Seeing Xiaoqi's serious expression, Liu Xiaoji understood in seconds, and said with a smile, "I understand."

"That's it." Xiaoqi laughed heartily.

Liu Xiaoji is also a talent, so he immediately started to flirt with each other: "What kind of general do you like? I will find some to give to the general later."

"So insincere?" Xiao Qi glared angrily, then raised her eyebrows and said with a smile: "I didn't say it just now, I like Bai."

After living on the ship for several years, Xiao Qi got mixed up with the big soldiers every day. He had already come up with such words at will, but Liao Yu secretly smiled.

Others don't know, but he knows that Xiaoqi's cleanliness can definitely rank in the forefront of the entire fleet in terms of life.

Most of the front row is due to physical inconvenience.

No matter how powerful Xiao Qi said, in the end it was all a fake trick, but he learned it from everyone's bragging.
