The sun never sets in the Ming Dynasty

Chapter 665 Very Violent

Cinchona bark was first discovered by the Indians in history.

After obtaining this information, Westerners made Cinney Cream and used it widely, but it is not a Western medicine, but an authentic Chinese herbal medicine.

Using cinchona bark directly without extracting crystals has the same curative effect as decocting Chinese herbal medicine, which is very suitable for the national conditions of Ming Dynasty.

After a big meal and a hearty drink, a group of people with pursuits, of course, yearned for the outside world, and it didn't take long for everyone to speak freely.

Hearing that overseas species are so miraculous, there will be no need for Huang Sheng to deceive them soon. A large group of scholars who love scientific research chatted happily, and finally they met for a round-the-world trip together.

Huang Sheng left Huang Dongshan to manage "Nanhua Island". At the end of October, he led his own soldiers to go north to Guangdong, took Huang Mingli and two thousand general mountain soldiers trained by him to Nanjing to marry his wife.

Huang Sheng arranged for the [-] thousand infantry and the cavalry concentrated by Li Dagang and Gu Yicang to stay on "Nanhua Island". It really needs too many garrisons.

The size of the place is just one of the reasons. There will be merchant ships from various countries here. If there is not enough force to deter, it is estimated that the country that thinks it has the power to fight is not just as simple as violent tax resistance. It is also possible to go ashore to grab territory. .

Huang Dongshan's task is not only to defend the land, he also has to make preparations to seize the Malay Peninsula within a year or two. The operation to drag the "Nanhua Island" mountainous area is coming to an end, although there is no guarantee that there will be no indigenous people in the mountain!
The Han people in "Nanhua Island" still encourage them to advocate force. Every young and strong must have combat skills.

The Han people are so tough, even if the natives come down from the mountains, I am afraid that there is no need for the regular army to go out, and the village brave trained by Lijia will arrest them all.

When Huang Mingdao went to sea, he took turns calling the "Nanhua Island" garrison to go with him, so that all the soldiers of the Huang family had the opportunity to visit South America.

The foreign policy of the Huang family is to attract a group of people to fight a group. Spain, which is about to decline, is one of the targets of wooing.

Xiyi has never been united in history, except for fighting against the stupid Manchus.They attacked each other constantly in Europe, and when they opened up colonies, they fought with each other and fought together.

In the future, Huang Sheng will act as a peacemaker, and when he sees that a certain party may be wiped out, he will set up an "international peacekeeping force" to maintain world peace in a dignified manner, give the party that is about to lose a breathing space, and secretly sell them arms.

The purpose, of course, is to make it impossible for the Xiyi people to tell the winner for a long time once they go to war.

Because in the absence of external intervention, most wars will come to an end after one side wins, and all kinds of sharp contradictions will disappear.

With the intervention of the "international peacekeeping force", conflicts will always exist and will never be resolved, and wars will always be fought.

Huang Sheng will not show it clearly, he will make troubles in the dark, and he must play with the differentiation and treatment.

Countries that obey Daming give trade shares, which is very friendly, while countries that are hostile to Ming give cannonballs, which is very violent.

The life of the big pirate Zheng Yiguan began to be sad again, because Huang Sheng protected the free trade rights of merchant ships from other countries after collecting taxes on behalf of the Ming government.

Too many merchant ships from other countries fly the Qinglong flag representing tax paid, and they are protected by the Ming Navy. Zheng Yiguan, who has received a special notice from his old acquaintance Guo Huaiyi, of course dare not make a mistake.

Therefore, there are fewer and fewer merchant ships that Zheng Yiguan's pirate group can rob.

In order to do business without capital, they even went to the coastline of the Mughal Empire in the Indian Ocean through the Strait of Malacca. Of course, Guo Huai came up with this idea.

Guo Huaiyi is already a senior official of the Huang family, and he can't do anything wrong. He has a bad idea to let Zheng Yiguan go to the Indian Ocean to cause trouble. He also stated that he can escape to Malacca in case of trouble, and he can also run into the "Huaxia Development" fleet. Cover them up.

The king of Qiongya County did not target Zheng Yiguan, a group of pirates, and still sold them guns and artillery.

However, when passing through the Strait of Malacca, Zheng Yiguan's ships must also pay taxes.

If you spend money, you will get benefits. Entering the Strait of Malacca is the Daming sea area. As long as foreign ships do not commit crimes in this sea area, even if they are well-documented Caribbean pirates, no one will arrest them here.

The sea area of ​​Daming extends all the way to the waters of Malacca, where no warships from other countries dare to harass, and it is not allowed to fire guns in the territorial waters of Daming.

Often when Zheng Yiguan encountered a ruthless character during a robbery, he ran to Malacca, not afraid of being eaten by the enemy.

Zheng Yiguan found that it would be too risky not to renovate and upgrade his own warships to voyage and rob, so he paid a high price to buy the first batch of seven battleships eliminated by the Huang family.

Now there are three shipyards in "Nanhua Island". No warships are built here, and all merchant ships and passenger ships are produced. They only provide maintenance for warships. Zheng Yiguan asked Guo Huaiyi to ask the Queen of Qiongya County for approval.

The "Nanhua Island" shipyard can undertake the maintenance of the Zheng Yiguan Group's warships and merchant ships, and at the same time give due consideration to improving the combat effectiveness and speed of these outdated warships and merchant ships. Zheng Yiguan will pay according to the price.

Zheng Yiguan had the seven battleships eliminated by the Huaxia Navy as the main force, added a few soft sails to dozens of warships, and replaced them with smoothbore guns that were lighter in weight, longer in range, and equipped with shock absorbers. The risk is much less.

At least with speed, he could escape calmly if he found that the enemy was not easy to mess with, but so far no fleet operating in the Indian Ocean could beat Zheng Yiguan so much that he needed to run away.

Under the protection of the Huaxia Navy, Zheng Yiguan has firmly controlled the coast of the Three Kingdoms, and now the only fleet that can successfully go to the Mughal Empire to complete trade is "China Development".

With the strength of the Huang family, Zheng Yiguan, a group of pirates, could be wiped out in minutes, but Huang Sheng did not do this, but raised him to harm the Indian Ocean.

The Huang family's navy represents the Ming government, and eating at sea is too ugly. Zheng Yiguan exists to do dirty work.

At the end of July, Liu Ruozai, who supervised the beheading of Zuo Liangyu's criminals, returned to the capital, and the emperor Longyan Dayue promoted him to be the doctor of Henan Qinglisi, the fifth-rank household department.

Why is the emperor happy, because Liu Ruozai handed over to the emperor 50 Huaxia Tongbao silver coin remittances, which were the private property of Zuo Liangyu confiscated by General Li Xihan under the command of the "God of War", and entrusted the imperial envoy to hand it over.

There is nothing public or private about the emperor, and the extra 50 silver coins in the internal funds naturally made the poor and frightened Chongzhen very happy, because he never thought that the king of Qiongya County would hand him so much confiscation, which was a surprise.

This winter, King Qiongya is going to marry his concubine side in Nanjing, everyone in Daming knows about it.
