The Resurrection of the South Seas of the Ming Dynasty

Chapter 65 Lighten the burden on the doll from crossing
Whether it was the successful casting of the cannon or the mass production of various weapons in the weapon workshop, Zhu Hongyu felt a sense of security in his heart.

With the continuous training of the Liberation Army and the gradual deployment of armaments, the combat effectiveness of the Liberation Army continued to increase.

He felt a lot more relaxed about the battle he was going to face next.

I am more confident that I can withstand the encirclement and suppression of the Spaniards!

……

During the following period of time, Zhu Hongyu was still busy.

In addition to handling various government affairs and participating in military training every day, he found some other things for himself.

He began to train talents for the future development of the Liberation Army!

He gathered all the half-old children from the family members of the Liberation Army, regardless of gender, between the ages of ten and 16, to carry out literacy and intensive teaching.

The textbook used is the compulsory education textbook he copied from his memory!

These children are young and undecided, and it is the time when their ability to learn and accept is strongest.

Zhu Hongyu's teaching to them, except for the indoctrination of nationalism, loyalty to Ming Dynasty, and the brainwashing of China's revival.

Almost all of them are science subjects, such as mathematics, geometry, astronomy, physics, chemistry, geography and other subjects.

The specific teaching method is to divide students into classes according to their abilities and interests, and each class only learns one subject.

The purpose is to cultivate a group of talents with basic scientific knowledge in a short period of time.

As for liberal arts subjects such as history and politics, there is no need to worry, you can learn slowly after you stabilize.

As for speaking English, who the hell is serious about learning English? !
Now that Zhu Hongyu has traveled through time, he must strive to make Chinese the only common language in the world in his lifetime.

Well, to reduce the burden on the doll, we must start with time travel!

……

On this day, Zhu Hongyu was teaching students a few simple mechanics formulas were written on a blackboard.

Zhu Hongyu explained the basic principles of mechanical formulas in detail. Underneath, a group of students raised their heads and stared at the blackboard without blinking.

His eyes followed the pointer in Zhu Hongyu's hand!
At this moment, a soldier of the Restoration Army ran from a distance.

He trotted all the way to Zhu Hongyu, and said.

"General, our sentry outside caught five sneaky guys."

"They claimed to be envoys sent by Manila to negotiate peace with our Liberation Army and discuss the release of prisoners of war."

Zhu Hongyu narrowed his eyes and said with a smile.

"Hehe, it's finally here!"

He turned to his students and ordered.

"I left beforehand, this class can be over."

"Everyone study by yourself first, review what I just said, and do some homework after class. I will check it when I come back later!"

Upon hearing this, the students all got up from their seats, bowed to Zhu Hongyu, and said in unison.

"Congratulations sir!"

The Chinese nation's tradition of respecting teachers and their desire for knowledge make students respect Zhu Hongyu very much.

Zhu Hongyu waved his hand, signaling to the students to go their separate ways, and then, led by the soldiers of the Restoration Army, they went to meet the envoys sent by the Spaniards.

……

There were several chairs in the living room. All the officers of the Liberation Army had arrived and sat down. The seats were full.

Only the top chair was left, which was reserved for Zhu Hongyu.

A group of five envoys all stood in the hall, and the officers of the Liberation Army would glare at them.

Zhu Hongyu strode in, glanced around the hall, and saw five envoys standing in the hall.

Among the five people, there are three Chinese and two Spaniards.

Among the three Chinese, two are dressed as businessmen, and the other is a scholar in Confucian shirt.

Of the two Spaniards, one is dressed as a priest and the other as a merchant.

With a flash in his eyes, it was strange that there were Chinese in the emissary's team.

Zhu Hongyu sat down on his own seat, staring at the five people standing there with piercing eyes.

"You are here, why are you here?"

Zhu Hongyu asked directly.

A Chinese in the group of five envoys spoke.

"Your Excellency, General, Lin Wenqi, a Chinese businessman in Manila, was entrusted by Governor Barossa to represent Manila to make peace with Your Excellency the General!"

Lin Wenqi had a smiley expression on his face, he looked like a shrewd businessman.

Zhao Yuanan on the side also stood up and said.

"Your Excellency, the Governor of Manila is sympathetic to the people under his rule, and he does not want to fight again. He wants to make peace with Your Excellency, and the two sides will establish trade and non-aggression."

Zhu Hongyu said with a sneer.

"Hehe, don't talk nonsense, if you want prisoners of war, you can exchange them with supplies!"

"One thousand catties of grain for a Spanish soldier, or the same value of salt, gunpowder, and medicinal materials!"

The Spanish priest among the five stood up and said.

"Although the Governor's Mansion intends to redeem God's people under your control, the price is too high and is unacceptable to the Governor's Mansion!"

Zhu Hongyu nodded, without any change in his expression.

"Of course, the price is negotiable!"

"You bargain, I chop people."

"A Spaniard has a thousand catties of grain and ten catties less. If I chop off his finger, he will lose one hundred catties. If he chops off his arm, he will lose two hundred catties. I will chop off his two legs."

"It's reasonable, isn't it?"

When the Spanish priest heard the words, his face turned red, and he pointed at Zhu Hongyu and cursed.

"You hateful heretic, how can you treat God's people so cruelly and viciously!"

Zhu Hongyu didn't care too much, with a smile on his face, and then he spoke to the mission.

"This priest's insults have caused me great mental harm, and I ask you to make compensation for it."

"I don't want too much. The price for redeeming prisoners of war is [-]% of the original price, which is regarded as my spiritual damage fee."

"Of course, it's still the same rule. If you bargain, I'll kill you!"

"Not too much?"

Zhu Hongyu's eyes were burning, and the expression on his face seemed to be a smile but not a smile.

The generals of the Restoration Army in the hall all showed strange expressions when they heard Zhu Hongyu's scoundrel negotiating style.

The priest wanted to say something more, but the Spanish businessman on the side quickly stopped him.

The businessman said flatteringly to Zhu Hongyu.

"Not too much, not too much!"

"It's not too much at all!"

Looking at the priest who was eager to try, the businessman couldn't help complaining in his heart, why don't you talk about it.

If you keep talking, the mental damage fee will have to go up again!
Lin Wenqi coughed twice, stood up and said solemnly.

"Your Excellency, we are here this time not only to redeem prisoners of war!"

"There is also the matter of the two parties making peace and restoring peace!"

"Manila is a peaceful, civilized, wealthy, and safe city. Wars and conflicts should not happen here!"

"The Chinese and the Spaniards are the co-founders of Manila, and they are the two cornerstones of Manila's prosperity and healthy development."

"Manila is the common home of the Chinese and the Spaniards. The two sides have contributed to the construction of Manila. There is an extremely profound traditional friendship between the two sides!"

"Clashes should not break out because of some small misunderstandings, so as to destroy the peace and stability of Manila!"

"The governor is kind-hearted, he doesn't see war, and he doesn't want to see unnecessary bloody conflicts."

"Under the mediation of our Chinese merchants, the Governor is willing to resolve the dispute through peaceful means through peace talks!"

"Of course, in order to show sincerity, the Governor's Office is willing to pay part of the ransom first in exchange for some prisoners of war."
