Chapter 122 The Rise of Chen Youliang

Zhu Han smiled slightly, and said to Hu Dahai:

"It's not just the entire East China Sea. Even if you go south or west, if you look at the whole world, there won't be a navy stronger than ours!"

What Zhu Han said is not to win by quantity, but to win by quality.

This batch of warships all adopt the most classic combination of sailing battleships in later generations, and the densely packed artillery windows are proof of their powerful military capabilities.

These artillery, the smallest caliber is also a six-pound gun, and the largest has reached 48 pounds, which is enough to destroy a hardwood hull three or four inches thick, and it is not just a layer of hull. The wood on both sides of a hull has been penetrated.

Such a powerful sailing battleship not only has no enemies in the East Asian waters, even if you count Persia and Arabia, no fleet can match them.

"Okay, now that we have the blade in hand, it's time to show our strength!" Zhu Han laughed.

Now the Red Scarf Army has sufficient naval forces, not only can it be attacked frequently in the north by the Mongolian and Yuan forces that harassed Liaoyang Province, but it can also guarantee land and water transportation to Ganghwa Island, Tamna Island and Goryeo.

Now that another batch of new warships have been launched and completed training, Zhu Han naturally has new plans.

"Deputy Marshal, are you going to attack those Huihui barbarians in Quanzhou?" Hu Dahai asked expectantly.

Zhu Han nodded, "That's right, it's the Huihui group from Quanzhou."

Xu Da has sent letters twice and three times, back and forth to occupy the local waterways of Quanzhou, making it difficult for the Red Scarf Army to break in.

If he was still afraid of attacking, these returning barbarians escaped by sea, so they never launched a general attack.

"This time, we will block all these perverted people from the sea route in Quanzhou. We can't let them have a living escape from Quanzhou, and let them pay with their blood!" Zhu Han said fiercely.

According to the battle report sent by Xu Da from the front, the Huihui Semu people headed by the Pu family in Quanzhou were burning, killing, looting and doing all kinds of evil in Fujian!
It was even crueler than devils entering the village.

These people kill the local Han people in the name of eliminating heretics at every turn!

Whether it is the Han people or the Mongols, who were once allies, they will all be killed.

With the support of Xu Da, Chen Youding and other Fujian generals counterattacked into Fujian and recovered most of Fujian.

But for the coastal ports around Quanzhou, they have not launched an attack for a long time, in order to prevent these Muslims with blood debts in their hands from running away.

The Hui people headed by the Pu family thought that the Red Scarf Army could not do anything to them, after all, they had been operating there for a long time.

The Semu people became more and more rampant. Just last winter, because of the lack of food in Quanzhou, they killed many Han people, old and weak, and even many children did not escape.

In Fujian, everyone hated Semuren deeply. Zhu Han and Zhu Yuanzhang agreed that they must be killed, otherwise they would not be able to give an explanation to the people of Fujian.

After all, Huihui owed countless blood debts, and they must not be allowed to run away.

The Red Turban Navy, which was ready for battle, immediately set sail in Zhenjiang and headed southward along the north wind.

After several days of sailing, they soon arrived at the sea outside Quanzhou City.

A huge fleet suddenly appeared on the sea, which immediately aroused the vigilance of Huihui Semu people in Quanzhou.

The leader of the Pu family, Pu Ali, saw dozens of warships emerging from the sea, and immediately guessed that they were the warships of the Red Turban Army.

"These damned pagans, don't they know how powerful we Persians are at sea?"

Today's Semu people are basically immigrants from Persia. They control the sea route from the Middle East of Persia to China. They can be said to be invincible in the sea and dominate the sea route.

Seeing dozens of warships appearing on the sea now, Pu Ali and the others are not too worried, because the Semu people have always been very confident in their naval strength.

"Emil, what are we going to do?"

"Do you want to attack?"

a curly-haired, green-eyed Semu rebel general asked Puari.

Amir means the ruler of the Tianfang Sect. The feudal lords, large and small, basically call themselves emirs.

"Of course we must attack immediately, we must not let these heretics take us lightly!" Pu Ali said.

Following an order, hundreds of Semuren warships in Quanzhou port poured out of the port one after another!
He swooped towards the Red Scarf Army warship ahead.

These warships with their Arabian triangle sails are unique in the East Asian seas.

Their tactics like a pack of wolves often scare the local pirates.

Therefore, the Semu people, who have always been arrogant and used to it, did not pay attention to the more than 30 Red Turban warships.

Although these Red Turban warships look very tall!

But they believed that with their dexterous dhows they could quickly approach and capture these warships.

The main weapon of these Semuren sailors is a powerful scorpion crossbow installed on battleships. This scorpion crossbow can shoot giant arrows as thick as arms, or stone projectiles as big as fists, which can crush enemy ships. Shells and sails.

In addition, there are many ballistas, which are also commonly used offensive methods by the Persian Semu people.

Of course, what they are best at is jumping gang battles, throwing hooks or rope ladders to the enemy's warships, and then climbing and jumping to fight close to hand.

Now they have an advantage in number, almost five times that of the Red Scarf Army and Navy, so they are naturally more inclined to fight close to hand.

As the sails spread across the sea.

More than 100 warships of the Semuren rushed towards the water army of the Red Turban Army like a huge net.

Seeing the scene in front of him, Zhu Han stood upright on the bow of the ship, smiled and said to Hu Dahai, "These Persians are here to die, we must greet them properly, and leave enough fast warships in the rear, so that we cannot let them go." These Persians took advantage of the chaos and fled!"

Hu Dahai responded immediately: "Obey, deputy commander! The last general has made arrangements, and I won't let a barbarian run out!"

"Okay, let's kill these perverted barbarians today, and pay homage to the dead people in Fujian!"

With the sound of a cannon, there was a flash of white smoke on the sea.

When the Semu navy approached a hundred paces, the cannons on the Red Turban warships started firing one by one.

The cannons spit ferocious flames!
The hot projectile flew out of the gun bore and slammed into the hull of the Semuren battleship.

Immediately, screams rang out on Semuren's battleship.

"How is this going?"

"Do these heretics have such powerful weapons?"

Puari's ship was also hit by a 48-pounder shell, but his luck was better. This shell only grazed the ship's side and destroyed part of the deck, but did not cause fatal damage.

Even so, Ali was completely terrified by the shocking breach on the battleship in front of him.

He never imagined that these Han sailors in front of him would have such terrifying weapons.

"Amir, let's rush up and set fire to these heathen ships."

General Semu hurriedly persuaded him.

The bandits like Pu Ali originally wanted to snatch these huge warships from the Red Turban Army.

Seeing this scene now, he immediately knew that the enemy was not easy to deal with, so he nodded in agreement.

With the sounding of horns, a command flag was hoisted above the triangular sail.

Everyone in Semu knew that their leader had given up robbing ships and destroyed enemy ships instead.

Their current strategy has given up snatching ships. With the change of the strategy of the Semu people, a large number of scorpion crossbows, bows and arrows, fire crossbows, etc. were fired from the battleships, all of which roared towards the battleships of the Red Turban Army. .

but.

The powerful weapon that the Persians were proud of hit the hardwood hull of the Red Turban Army, but it was like scratching an itch, causing no serious damage at all.

On the contrary, the warships of the Red Turban Army gained a better range after these Persian water troops approached.

boom!
boom!boom!
With the roar of artillery!
These Semuren warships suffered fatal blows one after another. The heavy projectiles harvested the lives of the sailors and soldiers on the Semuren warships like a god of death.

A scream and howl sounded on the Semuren battleship.

The triangular sails on one side fell to the surface of the sea like clouds falling, and drifted away with the slow ups and downs of the waves.

A large number of Semu warships simply cannot withstand the heavy bombardment of the Red Turban Army's 48-pound artillery!

Many warships were shot into the soul and disintegrated on the sea in an instant.

The tragic artillery bombardment caused the Semuren navy behind to fall into a huge panic.

"By Allah! This is the devil!"

"Quick! Quick! Escape from these heavenly punishments!"

"This is God's punishment!"

The screams and prayers of the Semu people did not save them, but aroused even greater killing intent from the Red Scarf Army.

The battleships of the Red Turban Army were like giant heavy hammers, with a wide front lined up, and the artillery on both sides of the ship's sides spit out thick white smoke and flames, and bombarded the Semuren warships on the sea.

More and more Semuren warships were beaten to pieces!
The raging flames also ignited the sails of the Semuren!
Many Semuren battleships had no time to dodge, and were hit head-on by these out-of-control friendly ships. The raging flames, blown by the sea wind, instantly ignited these Semuren warships that collided together.

There were originally more than 100 Semuren warships, but after a few short rounds of shelling, nearly half of them were damaged.

Seeing the tragic scene in front of him, Pu Ali knew that there was no hope of victory in this battle.

Semuren can't afford to lose. If all the warships are lost in this naval battle, even if they win this naval battle, there is no need for it, because Quanzhou will be a dead city if it loses sea traffic.

"Quickly withdraw! Quickly withdraw!"

"Quick retreat!" Pu Ali shouted anxiously.

With a loud shout of Pu Ali.

The Semuren battleship began to turn its sails and ran towards Quanzhou port.

There are also some Semuren battleships, because they are separated on the outside, they also set up their sails, trying to escape southward with the help of the strong north wind.

But for these Semu people who were about to flee, the Red Turban Army had already set up a reserve team according to Zhu Han's orders.

Some of the fast warships behind were already ready and immediately chased after them.

Although the number of artillery deployed on these fast battleships is small, they are all very powerful 48-pounder guns, and there are many 24-pounder guns.

After approaching these Semuren warships, all it takes is a salvo!
Semuren's naval battleship immediately turned into piles of broken wooden boards.

With the ups and downs of the waves, the sailors of Semuren fell into the water mansion one after another and fed the sharks in the sea.

For these Semu people who wanted to flee, the Red Turban Army would certainly not show mercy, and the Red Turban Army did not kill all the Semu warships fleeing towards Quanzhou Port, but slowly followed behind and pursued them.

Because the Semu people are naturally very familiar with the hydrology of the Quanzhou area, the Red Turban Army can save a lot of time in exploring the hydrology depth by slowly following them.

Sure enough, when the Semu people fled into Quanzhou Port in a panic, the warship of the Red Turban Army also sailed into the vicinity of Quanzhou Inner Harbor unharmed.

Amidst the roar of artillery, the Semu people abandoned their warships and fled to the fortress on land.

Semu people have been operating in Quanzhou for more than 100 years, and the fortress here has already been operated by them, which can be described as impenetrable.

Pu Ali clutched his injured arm and ran into Quanzhou City.

When he was escaping, his arm was hit by a wooden spike shattered by a heavy artillery shell from the Red Scarf Army. His arm was bleeding, and the wooden spike penetrated into the flesh and hit the bone. Seeing that this arm might Pu Ali was annoyed and angry if he was about to fail.

After he returned to Quanzhou City, he immediately ordered the city gates to be sealed off!

Call on all the Semu people in the city to take up arms and prepare to defend the city.

After the Red Scarf Army gained control of Quanzhou Port, they immediately built trestles on the shore, placed small boats and started landing.

The Red Scarf Army navy blocked the port of Quanzhou, and immediately sent someone to send information to Xu Dapai in the rear.

When Xu Da learned that the Quanzhou water battle had been won, he immediately stood up happily.

"To wipe out the Hui people in Quanzhou, we will fight today!"

Xu Da said loudly.

Chen Youding and other Fujian generals next to Xu Da were also enthusiastic.

The various atrocities committed by the Semu people in Fujian have already made them unbearable.

"Kill all these perverts and avenge the dead folks!"

"Kill them all!"

"Kill them all!"

With a roar, Xu Da led more than 4 soldiers and horses under his command to march towards Quanzhou in great strides. The Semu fortress guard posts along the way were no match for these red scarves at all.

In particular, Xu Da had already done a complete reconnaissance of these Semu people's strongholds. After a strong attack, he quickly drove all the Semu people to the isolated city of Quanzhou.

Quanzhou Cheng is now a dead place.

Xu Da led the Hongnan Red Scarf Army and Fujian local rebels to block all roads.

And the Red Turban Army at sea lined up, destroying all the Semu ships that wanted to leave the port on the sea.

Pu Ali stood in Quanzhou City, looking at the Red Scarf Army on both sides of the water and land, and suddenly fell into despair.

"These pagans gave us such a fiasco, I'm afraid we will dedicate our lives here for Allah!" Pu Ali said with some horror.

At this time, Yusuf, his brother, came up and said,
"I remember that Allah taught us that when necessary, we also need to be cunning and wise!"

"What do you mean?" Puari asked.

"We can make peace with these heretics!"

"That's right, Allah has taught us to save our lives when necessary, so that we can better dedicate ourselves to the Lord!"

Yusuf's words were immediately agreed by Pu Ali.

Now that they are in a desperate situation, it would be best if they could save their own lives through peace, but it would be even better if they could take away some treasures.

As a negotiating envoy, Yusuf did his part.

He was sent out of the city, holding a white flag before the camp of the Red Turban Army.

Before entering the Red Scarf Army camp, he had already made a plan in his heart.

According to his plan, as long as half of the property in Quanzhou City is obediently given to these Han people, he should be able to leave safely in exchange.

He believes that these heretics should be able to agree, even if they don't agree, then dedicating all their wealth and keeping their lives to leave is their last bottom line.

As soon as Yousuf entered the Red Scarf Army camp, after seeing Zhu Han, he was immediately rushed up by several wolf-like soldiers, and was knocked to the ground with a mess of sticks, especially his knees were severely injured. Hit hard.

Unable to hold on any longer, Gui lay on the ground like a dead dog in an instant.

"When the two countries are at war, don't behead envoys!"

Yousuf is very fluent in Chinese, and he wailed loudly while lying on the ground.

It never occurred to him that these Red Turban soldiers were so ignorant of diplomatic etiquette, they were not at all ambiguous about himself as an envoy, and they beat themselves to the ground as soon as they greeted them.

Zhu Han looked at Yousuf lying on the ground like a dead dog, and stopped Lan Yu and others from continuing to beat him.

He said to Yusuf, "Don't you Muslims intend to sacrifice your life for the Lord?"

"How dare you make peace?"

When Yousuf heard that the general of the Red Turban Army in front of him made a mockery, he was already extremely angry, but the situation was stronger than others, so he put on a very humble gesture and said, "We have obeyed the command of the Lord, come to To this promised land, but now, the Almighty Lord will make a decree, it is time for us to leave, and we are willing to pay half of Quanzhou's treasures in exchange for the boats we leave, and fresh water and food!"

After Yousuf finished speaking, he clutched his beaten body just now, and waited tremblingly for Zhu Han's reply.

Zhu Han smiled coldly and said:
"You dead-returning robbers are really good at eating inside and out, and you don't pay much attention to morality. I won't make peace with you. Go back and tell your people to wash their necks and prepare to die!"

"If anyone comes out to surrender, I can spare their lives. If anyone dares to resist, then I will kill all the Hui people in Quanzhou City!"

Zhu Han's words made Yusuf feel desperate immediately, and he tried to make a final test, "As long as we can let us leave Quanzhou, we are willing to give all our treasures, and only give us a boat to leave!"

Regarding this request, Zhu Han did not agree at all, but said, "I said I would kill you, that is to kill you, there will never be any peace, unless you come out and surrender unconditionally, otherwise there will be no negotiation!"

Then, in order to express that he would never talk about peace, Zhu Han waved his hand!
Lan Yu and other Red Scarf Army generals rushed forward, Lan Yu picked up the dagger in his hand, and cut Yusuf's nose and ears fiercely.

Ah!
With a scream, Yusuf's nose and ears were cut off by the dagger in Sapphire's hand.

Sapphire wiped the blood from her hands and threw it on the ground with a look of disgust.

At this time, Yusuf's face had turned into a bloody and terrifying appearance.

Zhu Han said to Yusuf who was screaming, "This is a lesson for you. Be prepared to fight to the death when you go back!"

Zhu Han did not intend to make peace with these Hui people in Fujian.

As for whether the Muslims in Quanzhou City would stand firm and cause even greater losses to the Red Scarf Army, Zhu Han didn't care at all. It's pretty good at bullying the common people in Fujian.

But if you really want to face Lan Yu, Xu Da and other experienced generals of the Red Scarf Army, it is simply not worth mentioning.

Sure enough, after Yousuf returned to Quanzhou City, all the Semu people in the city knew what kind of ending they were about to face. Many of them broke out with a ferocious character like a beast, and they killed all the people in Quanzhou City overnight. There are only a few Han people left, these Han people are actually some traitors who are vassals of the Semu people, and their deaths will naturally not arouse the slightest sympathy from Zhu Han.

With the sound of war drums, the Red Turban Army launched a full-scale general attack on Quanzhou City!

The Red Turban Army brought siege artillery and bombarded the gate of Quanzhou City.

In an instant, the hard wooden city gate was smashed to pieces.

Amidst the shouts of killing, the armored soldiers of the Red Turban Army were the vanguard, and immediately rushed into Quanzhou City.

The more than 1 Semu people in the city simply cannot resist the ferocious offensive of the Red Scarf Army!
He was quickly defeated and killed.

Pu Ali held up the scimitar in his hand.

Looking at the soldiers of the Red Scarf Army pouring into the mansion like a tide, they wanted to swing their knives to die.

Suddenly, a feathered arrow pierced his arm, and the scimitar in his hand fell to the map.

Pu Ali screamed and was captured alive by Lan Yu.

"Deputy Marshal, this man is Pu Ali, the executioner who massacred the people of Fujian!"

Xu Da led Chen Youding and other Fujianese generals to recognize Pu Ali immediately. In addition, dozens of other leaders of the Semu people were also captured alive, and there were a few women dressed up by the Semu people who wanted to take advantage of the chaos to hide Get up, but they were all searched out by the Red Scarf Army one by one.

"Shut it up and prepare to be killed in three days!" Zhu Han ordered coldly.

The destruction of Quanzhou City not only killed all the recalcitrant Semu people in the city, but also seized countless gold and silver treasures.

It's just a pity that a considerable part of the Nanyang goods were set on fire by the Semu people when the city was broken. These were all priceless spices, and the strong smell of spices wafted over the city of Quanzhou for three days and three nights. Neither dissipated.

Spices like these peppers are worth gold today.

"Ah! Ahh!"

Smelling the peppery aroma all over the city, Zhu Han couldn't help but sneezed hugely.

Xu Da, Hu Dahai and others were all feeling sorry for the burnt pepper.

"What's a few peppers?"

"These peppers in Nanyang, Tianzhu and other places are basically worthless things that grow on trees everywhere, but after being changed hands by these cunning people, they become valuables at a reasonable price."

After hearing Zhu Han's words, Hu Dahai, Xu Da and the others all had golden lights in their eyes.

They were all born in poverty, and they only knew that pepper was a luxury that high-ranking officials could enjoy. Now that they heard what Zhu Han said, they couldn't help showing suspicious expressions.

"Deputy Commander, is this really the case?"

"If pepper is so cheap, why do you sell them so expensive?"

Zhu Han rolled his eyes and said:
"The nonsense is of course for making money. These sex-eyed people don't show any kindness at all. They won't sell you cheap pepper just because it's cheap!"

"Here, a pot of pepper is almost equivalent to a tael of gold, but in farther countries such as Rome, Thailand and the West, it will be twice as much!" Zhu Han said.

"Then if we go to occupy Nanyang and snatch all the peppers on the tree, wouldn't we be rich?" Hu Dahai said with a smile.

"That's natural. These Semu people have monopolized the east-west sea trade, making them a lot of money. From today onwards, we will make money from the sea!" Zhu Han said.

"Deputy Marshal, is what you said true?" Chen Youding asked cautiously.

As a general from Fujian, Chen Youding's business acumen can be said to be very high.

In history, Chen Youding, as a diehard loyalist of Meng Yuan, has been sticking to Fujian to be loyal to Meng Yuan.

He did not succumb to Zhu Yuanzhang and Chen Youliang, and was also unyielding and killed when he was finally captured.

And in this time and space, Meng Yuan's army of millions was wiped out by Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Han's brothers, and the Emperor Meng Yuan also died on the battlefield. Before Chen Youding could be promoted and reused by Meng Yuan, he was subdued by Zhu Han.

For people like Chen Youding, Zhu Han still appreciates his loyalty.

Anyway, as long as he has kindness to him, Chen Youding will definitely be loyal to him without hesitation.

Zhu Han said kindly, "Quanzhou Maritime Trade cannot be abolished, and not only cannot it be abolished, we must carry forward the Quanzhou Maritime Trade!"

Zhu Han just captured a batch of sea charts left by the Semu people, which are treasures accumulated by the Semu people for hundreds of years.

In fact, the value far exceeds these peppers.

These charts depict in detail the hydrological routes of the entire Indochina Peninsula, Tianzhu in Nanyang and other places.

There are also the scenery along the way, which can be used as a detailed manual for the navigation guide of maritime trade.

"Oh, that's it!" Hu Dahai's eyes lit up immediately, "With these charts, we can go to Nanyang and pick the peppers from those trees!"

"Haha, this is not a pepper tree, it's a golden tree!" Xu Da said with a smile.

"That's right! However, just having a sea chart is not enough. You gather all the captives and semu people who are left behind, select some of them who are familiar with the route, and assign them to the navy. If you dare to steal and play tricks, you will be eunuched and sent to hard labor immediately," Zhu Han said.

Today, although the blood of the Semu people in Quanzhou City has been killed, more than 1000 people are still captured.

"Deputy Marshal, what should I do if there are still a lot of perverted women?"

"Sexy women?" Zhu Han was a little surprised: "How many are there?"

"It's really quite a lot, almost 3000!" Hu Dahai said.

"There are so many? I'll go and see first."

Zhu Han and his party came to a luxurious courtyard in the city.

This place was originally the residence of Pu Ali, the leader of Semu. The interior is decorated with resplendent gold and jade, and small onion-topped towers stand around. At first glance, it looks like a luxurious residence full of Tianfangjiao style.

In the center of the mansion, there are about two or three thousand women gathered together.

Among the dark crowd, there are hairs of all colors.

"There really are so many seductive women?"

"It's the first time I've seen so many seductive women." Xu Da couldn't help but said.

"These color-eyed women are quite different from the usual color-eyed people. You can see that their hair is all golden in color." Sapphire said suspiciously.

Zhu Han smiled slightly, "Those blond ones should all be from Eastern Europe, and they probably came from the Russian region of Eastern Europe, that is, the Golden Horde!"

This group of men stared at the blonde women in front of them with fascination.

After hearing Zhu Han's words, Hu Dahai asked curiously, "Deputy Commander, where is Ross? Where is the Golden Horde?"

Zhu Hanyi smiled and said, "That's a long way, and it's probably tens of thousands of miles away from the Western Regions."

"Where is the Western Region?"

"The Western Regions are located in the Guanzhong area and go further to the northwest," Zhu Han said.

Hu Dahai, who was born as a commoner, has almost zero knowledge of the geography of the world, and the places they are familiar with are often only a few hundred miles away from where they were born and traveled.

For things that are thousands of miles away, people often learn about them through hearsay. As for places thousands of miles away, they are simply two worlds.

Zhu Han's words immediately aroused the interest of Xu Da, Hu Dahai and others.

They also became curious about these blond and blue-eyed women in front of them.

At this time, Chen Baodao escorted several Semu people over.

"Deputy commander, these are relatively obedient captives, and they were brought here by the deputy commander."

Zhu Han nodded, and asked the Semu captives, "What are your names?"

These Semu captives quickly knelt on the ground and called out their names.

"My lord, the villain's name is Amu Khan."

"The villain's name is Yu Kefu."

"Amu Khan and Yukefu?"

Zhu Han said to the two Semu people, "Go and ask these women, how old are they, where are they from, and what are their names? Register for me."

The captive Amu Khan immediately said, "My lord, we already have a list of these things, and we can know this information as long as we find the list."

Soon in the study room of the emir's mansion, Amu Khan found these rosters, and counted these Semu female slaves one by one according to the rosters.

Zhu Han found that they were all young, the youngest was eight or nine years old, and the oldest was only in their 30s, which was a good time to give birth.

Zhu Han couldn't help but sighed, "This is really great, those single brothers are blessed."

Xu Da and the others also grinned and said, "Many brothers in the army have been bachelors for several years, and now each of them can be divided into one perverted woman!"

"However, let's ask the deputy commander to pick these sex slaves first." Hu Dahai said beside him.

Zhu Hanben was also very curious about these seductive women, so he glanced at the female slaves below.

Suddenly, a strand of blond hair blowing in the wind caught his attention, and he saw that it was a blond Eastern European slave girl about thirteen or fourteen years old.

Zhu Han pointed out and took her into his own name.

At this time, Amu Khan said beside him:

"Honorable master, you really have vision. These are the golden tent slaves who have just been trafficked from Baghdad. They are all high-quality goods, and they are all in perfect condition. The master can enjoy them as much as they want!"

Zhu Han looked at it seriously, and it really is stunning.

Zhu Han smiled slightly and asked, "What's your name?"

The female slave had a puzzled look on her face. Obviously, she couldn't understand Chinese.

Amu Khan immediately took out the roster and read it, then said to Zhu Han,
"Honorable master, her name is Sophia."

"Bring this woman back to me, and the rest will be rewarded to the soldiers after returning to Jinling according to their merits," Zhu Han ordered.

Xu Da, Hu Dahai and others were very happy, and quickly obeyed.

The next step Zhu Han needs to solve is naturally to reopen the Shibo Division in Quanzhou to restore Quanzhou's trade.

With the nautical charts left by Semuren and the Nanyang navigation log, Zhu Han ordered Hu Dahai to check the warehouse docks in Quanzhou and the situation of the surrounding merchant ships in Quanzhou. He needs to return to the Nanyang area as soon as possible within three months. trade, and within a year, have a fleet of no less than a hundred large ships.

After hearing Zhu Han's decision, Hu Dahai was immediately in high spirits!
Because according to this scale, it is more than Huihui people's operation in Quanzhou for hundreds of years.

The most exported goods from Quanzhou port to Nanyang area are silk, tea, porcelain, medicinal materials and books.

Regarding the categories of these goods, Zhu Han immediately made the latest changes, increased the export of porcelain, and strictly controlled the export of intellectual products such as books.

Among these exported books, many are about science and technology, agriculture, etc., but for the Western Tianfang Sect, these are advanced knowledge that they have never had.

Zhu Han decided not to sell it to them again. Isn't this simply raising a thief!

…………

Hanyang, the capital of Tianwan Empire.

In Hanyang City, a noisy shout of killing was ringing out everywhere in Hanyang City.

A red flag was held high, flying back and forth in Hanyang City.

In the prime minister's mansion of Ni Wenjun, the great prime minister of the Tianwan Empire, blood was already flowing like rivers.

Obviously, the defenders of Prime Minister Ni Wenjun's mansion can't last long, and their fate will inevitably be a bloody and cruel massacre.

Chen Youliang's soldiers gathered more and more, and they had already surrounded Ni Wenjun's mansion.

He couldn't help showing a winner's smile, Chen Youliang sent someone to shout loudly to the prime minister's welfare,
"Surrender quickly!"

"Ni Wenjun was killed for the rebellion, and the rest, as long as you surrender, you will not die!"

"Quick surrender!"

"Quick surrender!"

Chen Youliang's soldiers followed closely and shouted loudly.

Ni Wenjun, the prime minister of the Tianwan Empire, used to be powerful in the government, he was under one person and above ten thousand people, but he made a fatal mistake, that is, he ignored Chen Youliang.

As far as Ni Wenjun is concerned, he deserves to die.

Ni Wenjun had a selfish desire to seek wealth and honor. He once made peace with the Yuan Dynasty and wanted to compromise and surrender!
However, in the end, the conditions were not negotiated, and finally gave up.

After Ni Wenjun took power, he was very disrespectful to Emperor Xu Shouhui of Tianwan, and often insulted Emperor Xu Shouhui of Tianwan. Moreover, last month, Ni Wenjun was no longer satisfied with being a prime minister. He tried to murder Xu Shouhui, and then usurped him throne.

However, a group of generals loyal to Xu Shouhui defeated Ni Wenjun's plot.

Ni Wenjun escaped from the palace and went straight to his general Chen Youliang. He originally wanted to use Chen Youliang's troops to rebel directly and kill Tianwan Emperor Xu Shouhui.

However, Chen Youliang will not be manipulated and controlled by Ni Wenjun.

He is going to be a hero!

Taking advantage of Ni Wenjun's unpreparedness, Chen Youliang beheaded Ni Wenjun, and then took his head back to attack Prime Minister Ni Wenjun's residence in Hanyang City.

Today, Ni Wenjun's head is raised high on a long spear.

Inside Ni Wenjun's mansion, there was already howling.

They are all loyal and relatives of Ni Wenjun, even if they want to surrender, there will be absolutely no good end.

"Since you refuse to surrender, kill them all!"

"Not one!" Chen Youliang said with a sinister smile.

"Kill! Kill!"

With the increasing number of Chen Youliang's followers outside, soon Chen Ni Wenjun's troops in the Prime Minister's Mansion were completely defeated.

Chen Youliang's troops entered Prime Minister Ni Wenjun's mansion and began massacring them, regardless of men, women, or children. Ni Wenjun's mother, who was over 80 years old, was also dragged into the courtyard by Chen Youliang's generals, and stabbed to death.

Ni Wenjun's three young children, the youngest of which was only three months old, were also thrown to death on the steps. Not many people in the Tianwan Empire would criticize Chen Youliang's ungrateful behavior, because after Ni Wenjun's death , Chen Youliang immediately annexed his authority.

Chen Youliang made no secret of his ambition to monopolize power!

Chen Youliang massacred Ni Wenjun's in-laws in Hanyang, and Tianwan Emperor Xu Shouhui actually thought Chen Youliang was a loyal minister.

After hearing that Ni Wenjun was killed, Xu Shouhui sent someone to call Chen Youliang into the palace immediately.

Emperor Xu Shouhui of Tianwan sent someone to invite Chen Youliang into the palace, preparing to give Chen Youliang a reward.

However, when Chen Youliang entered the palace, Tianwan Emperor Xu Shouhui's face turned as pale as white paper.

Because Chen Youliang just came from Ni Wenjun's mansion after a slaughter, his whole body was covered with blood, and the generals behind him were all vicious, and the swords and guns in their hands were still covered with blood, so they swaggered to the Hanyang Palace within.

"See Your Majesty!"

Standing in the main hall of the palace, Chen Youliang said in a loud voice.

The Tianwan Emperor Xu Shouhui sitting on the dragon chair was completely frightened like a wood carving.

He originally called Chen Youliang in, hoping that he would serve him wholeheartedly, so that Xu Shouhui could completely and truly control the entire Tianwan Empire.

However, seeing Chen Youliang's appearance now, Xu Shouhui knew that this Chen Youliang was a more terrifying figure than Ni Wenjun.

Xu Shouhui couldn't express the reward he had in mind for a while.

He only trembled a few times, but he didn't utter a single word after all.

When Chen Youliang saw this, he felt disdainful in his heart!

It's ridiculous that such a wimpy Xu Shouhui should be able to be some kind of emperor.

However, Chen Youliang still needs to use Xu Shouhui's name to control the generals of the Red Scarf Army stationed in various places.

He pretended to salute, and said to Xu Shouhui, "Your Majesty, the traitor Ni Wenjun rebelled and conspired against him, and he has been executed by the whole family. The head of the traitor is being displayed in Hanyang City. I ask your Majesty to pardon the rest of Ni Wenjun's generals, so that they can be killed." Let the common people feel at ease and let the soldiers feel at ease!"
