Taiwan Bengang, located in the Beigang town area of the lower reaches of Beigang Creek in Taiwan, where the land is fertile, but also a natural port, Zheng Zhilong from the Apocalypse three years to start operating here, from the hometown of Fujian to migrate a large number of people and people, after more than four years of Beijing, Bengang has developed into a large-scale port and a town with a population of 70,000 or 80,000.

In a Hokkien-style courtyard in Bengang, Zheng Zhilong was entertaining Major Oncos, Sir Ssonod's emissary from the city of Geranza. In the huge living room, Zheng Zhilong sat in the first seat, with his leaders on the left, and Major Onkos and the officers he brought with him on the right.

Major Oncos was a muscular white man who wore a blue-gray military coat with a pair of blue trousers, black leather boots, a high blue hat embroidered with a golden lion, and a long white feather stuck in the top of the hat, which looked like a proud turkey showing off its feathers. His complexion had also become very rough due to his years of wandering on the sea, and the joints of his palms were very thick, and there was a thick layer of calluses on the palms of his hands, indicating that the major often held weapons and used firearms.

Contrary to Major Oncos, Zheng Zhilong, who had just recovered from his illness, was pale and mentally weak, and his gentle coughing sound was heard from time to time.

Looking at Zheng Zhilong, who was in a state of exhaustion, Major Onkos showed a trace of imperceptible contempt in his eyes, he picked up the teacup on the table and took a sip before he said: "Mr. Zheng, I have sent twelve of the world's most advanced warships and sixty of the sharpest artillery pieces according to the previous agreement, I don't know when you plan to fulfill your obligations and send all your troops out to harass the interior of the Ming Dynasty?" ”

Zheng Zhilong coughed lightly, "Major Onkos, you are also an experienced officer, you should know that it is not an overnight thing to master a new ship, and it will take us a while for the sixty newly arrived guns to get familiar with them before we can install them on the ship, it all takes time, I can't take a group of sailors who don't even master the ship to fight against the Ming Dynasty, right?" ”

"I don't think it's a big deal." The look of contempt in Major Onkos's eyes became even stronger, "If I'm not mistaken, Mr. Zheng's subordinates are all sailors who have been begging for a living at sea all year round, and they should be very familiar with how to drive ships and control artillery, but it's just a change of ship, which shouldn't be a difficult thing for you, but why has it become a very difficult thing in your mouth, can I think that you are planning to break the contract?" If that were the case, I would have to tell the Governor of Sonod as it was. ”

"Of course not!" Zheng Chenggong hurriedly said: "In fact, the reason why we are so serious is also to treat it with the attitude of being responsible, because during the whole time, our spies lurking in Xiamen sent a message that a group of people who defected from within us took refuge in the Ming court, so that the Ming Dynasty has a naval division that is not weak, so I think it is necessary to reassess their strength." ”

"Traitor?"

Major Onkos could no longer hide the contempt in his heart, and he laughed: "If I remember correctly, this so-called traitor you are talking about is the woman who always shouts in your ears and does not let you do bad things, right?" I can't believe it's been four years and you haven't even managed a woman. God, what's wrong with the world? ”

Looking at the undisguised sarcastic smile on Major Encos's face, the leaders sitting under Zheng Zhilong were so angry that their faces changed, Zheng Zhihu held the handle of the knife at his waist tightly, and as soon as his eldest brother gave an order, he immediately rushed over to cut off the head of the white-skinned pig who was making a lot of nonsense. And Zheng Zhibao, who was familiar with his temper, stretched out his left hand and grabbed his arm, and grabbed it hard to prevent this short-tempered guy from doing something stupid.

In fact, it was not only Zheng Zhihu, but even Zheng Xing, Zheng Ming, Yang Geng, Chen Hui, Zheng Cai and many other generals were also angry by Major Ankos's words, and their eyes showed a fierce light, just waiting for Zheng Zhilong to turn his face with the Dutch.

It's just that Zheng Zhilong was not as angry as he imagined, he just looked very serious, stared at Major Ankos and said word by word: "Major Ankos, if you think that we are not worthy of the twelve warships and sixty guns you sent, you can bring them back now, but then we will no longer be friends!" ”

Although Zheng Zhilong was not angry, and the tone of his voice was also light, but Ang Kesi was in his heart.

Although he looked down on colored people in his heart, naturally including pirates like Zheng Zhilong, in his opinion, the Dutch Navy and these pirates should be enemies by nature, and the best fate for Zheng Zhilong and these people was to be firmly hung on the mast of the warship.

But at the same time, Ankos also had to admit that they couldn't do without Zheng Zhilong and these people, because these pirates were not only powerful, but also very familiar with the situation of the Ming Dynasty, and the Netherlands wanted to annex the ancient and huge country of the Ming Dynasty, and the help of Zheng Zhilong and these people was indispensable, which was not only his opinion, but also the opinion of the governor of Sonod. If Zheng Chenggong turns against them because of him, I'm afraid that Governor Sonod will not be the first to spare him after he returns.

Thinking of this, the smile on Ancos's face immediately became "sincere", and he laughed: "I'm really sorry, our old friend, I just made a joke with you, in fact, we are also very concerned about that woman, I heard that she betrayed you and turned to the Spaniards and acted as a thug for the Spaniards, and now she has taken refuge in Daming, it is very dangerous to have such an enemy who understands you and always thinks about you, so I personally hope that you can get rid of her as soon as possible, If you need any help, please ask for it and we will consider it at our discretion. ”

"yes, then you're welcome." Zheng Zhilongpi nodded with a smile, "Recently, our brother just grabbed a few merchant ships, and it is very unfortunate that these ships are actually Portuguese, these days the Portuguese are desperately looking for us, if you can, I hope you can solve this matter." ”

"Portuguese?"

Hearing this, Encos's smile immediately froze.

Although the era of the Portuguese has come to an end, it is still not an object that can be easily bullied, and the Dutch are now fighting with the Spaniards in the open and secret, and if the Portuguese are provoked again, this will be a great pleasure.

"You MMP!" This is what Enkos wants to say most in his heart at this time......
