Fu Yuan named the land under his feet the Boundary Peninsula after the boundary monument 1,900 miles to the north.

In this matter, Fu Guerrilla originally wanted to fully carry forward the spirit of democracy and collect the name of the peninsula from all his subordinates in the army, who were more enthusiastic than anyone else in naming the land under their feet.

Whether it is Yanglaiwan, Linlaidao or Chenlaigang, this means honor.

It's just that Fu Yuan has always scoffed at Chen Mu and Yang Zhaolong's talent for naming, but when it was his turn to name a piece of land, he realized how important the cultural level was.

He collected many names and carved many dice, and each time one side of the dice was drawn, the names of the dice would be engraved on the new dice, intending to pass the time of boredom waiting for the Spaniards to respond while deciding on the name of the long and narrow peninsula.

However, the Spaniards quickly decided that he would abandon this fun-filled method, and Acosta elaborated to Fu Yuan about the possible outcome of the negotiations – with the Viceroy of New Spain out of his petty calculations, of course.

After discussing with Shao Tingda, Fu Yuan and Shao Tingda decided to send a large ship from their fleet, a total of two 500 warships and 200 banner troops, to escort a negotiation group of more than 20 people, including Brother Acosta, to Majiagang to meet with Chen Mu.

Fu Yuan, Shao Tingda, and Hei Yunlong continued to lead their troops to stay on the demarcation peninsula to deal with the tensions after the end of the negotiations.

But none of them could have imagined how disgraced the Doge of New Spain was, and he led his officer corps and a company on two Spanish galleons to the Boundary Peninsula a few days after the negotiations had even begun, just a few days after the Acosta Friars had set sail north.

Next to the camp of the Ming army, another camp was erected, and a small road was specially built to share a port with the Ming army.

They didn't even have time to react, and after receiving the news, the three generals stood on the wall with strange expressions and watched more than two hundred well-armed Spanish soldiers disembark in turn, wade through the shallow water on the shore and raise their weapons above their heads, run to a place two miles away from them to find a suitable place to camp, and then began to camp in full defence and enthusiasm.

Fu Yuan and Shao Tingda followed Chen Mu to collect debts from the Spanish armed forces once, and later they really asked for money, but they really couldn't imagine that Spain would use more than 200 people to ask for bribes from more than 2,000 armed people!

Well, they thought that the Doge of New Spain had come to ask for a bribe.

This can make it difficult for the two imperial generals from Nanyang to make a mistake - Nanyang officers may be the most unbribed group of people in the entire Ming Empire, especially the group of people who followed Chen Mu from the banner army.

Not only did their commanders not want to bribe, but they would ask them viciously where the money they used to bribe came from, and they were not short of money in the future, and there was a fleet of their own in the South Seas that bought and sold curiosities over and over again.

A well-developed emerging group with countless upside has allowed them to avoid relying on bribery to climb up to the greatest extent.

In the end, this matter had to be handled by Heiyunlong, who was born in the Northern Army.

Although they would not bribe, the commander Chen Mu set an example to tell them a truth - the information and benefits that can be obtained by effective bribery to other countries can avoid the death and injury of soldiers at best, and the role played by bribes far exceeds the role played by bribes.

For example, Malacca, isn't it just 30,000 taels of silver in exchange, and now with the expansion of the Western military government, you can earn so much in two months of tariffs.

They wanted to see what they could get by bribing Almanza.

As a result, there was nothing, Heiyunlong came back dejectedly, and said to Fu Yuan: "Fu guerrilla, or you go, he doesn't want money at all, I can't make sense with him, I don't think this guy is here to ask for a bribe at all." ”

"Didn't you come to ask for a bargain?" Fu Yuanhu suspiciously listened to Hei Yunlong say this, turned his head and glanced at Shao Tingda, feeling that he couldn't move the tiger, he waved his hand to his own soldiers with a robe of battle, and said, "Go with Ben to meet Na Xiyi Lao'er!" ”

In Fu Yuan's eyes, Almanza, the governor of New Spain, was a real fat old man, wearing a red feathered black soft hat and a plate armor with an almost closed abdomen, and a wide belt exposing all the ribs to the metal protection, obviously this was a plate armor used for decoration.

Fu Yuan already has a lot of understanding of Western and Portuguese or European armor, and he has not seen the earthen buns of plate armor, in the actual battle, some plate armor will add large armor pieces hanging on the ribs, Fu Yuan estimates that this old man will go to the battlefield - it must be a special iron.

Fu Yuan's first meeting with the Doge of New Spain was very discordant, with Almanza, dressed in black and white armor in Germanic style plates, walking a large group of his pets with heavy, solid steps.

A flock of sheep with thick fur that covers their faces.

This strange picture made Fu Yuan, who was walking like a tiger, pause, and was stunned for a moment before he walked up and said, "I heard a Spanish pirate in Luzon say that in your country, sheep raising is a special noble, which makes me feel amazing. ”

Fu Yuan, who was born in an agrarian civilization, could never understand the pride of the pirate Farikat, who said that the ranchers in Spain herded more than two million sheep from north to south each autumn, and returned from south to north the following spring.

Destroying all the farmland along the way, eating food, and displacing the peasants, who would become soldiers, monks, servants, petty traders, or simply sneak on a ship, and if they were good at it, they were called adventurers, and if they didn't get mixed up, they were called vagabonds.

Almansa turned his head, took off his hat and nodded slightly to Fu Yuan, and said, "Mesta, this is called Mesta, we have been raising sheep for a long time, and we sell the best wool to the whole of Europe every year, which is one of the three major sources of income for the kingdom." ”

Fu Yuan looked at the sheep intently, this kind of sheep he had seen next to the Spanish military station by the sea during the voyage to the south with the fleet, but he didn't care about it at the time, and now it seems that the wool quality of this sheep seems to be very good.

He used his brain to send someone to the north to find some of this kind of sheep after he went back, and sent them back to Chen Mu, and asked absently: "Three sources of income, just rely on raising sheep?" What about the other two? ”

"America, and the Netherlands." Almantha laughed strangely and said, "It's really interesting that the Americas were invaded by the Ming army and the Netherlands rebelled. ”

Fu Yuan's face showed a stunned look that couldn't be hidden, this is too, the three major sources of income are broken, Spain can still live well, and it still looks very powerful, this is simply a miracle.

Although he is not doing financial work, he is also very clear about the source of income of Daming, not to mention anything else, as long as the land tax does not come up, the country will collapse, not to mention the three major sources of income: "How do you maintain it?" ”

"Borrow money, the crisis will be lifted when the silver is delivered, and no matter how much you toss, you can still send troops from all sides, so my compatriots have been rampant in expanding their territory for decades."

"Personally, I agree with your general's suggestion, but the specific conditions need to be changed, it is Peru that receives the loss, not my Viceroyalty, and in the future, silver coins and artillery will be shipped back to China from the Viceroyalty of Mexico, I care more about these, but the nobles who lost their territory want to kill me."

Almansa said truthfully, winked at Fu Yuan, and said with a smile: "So I'm here now, if there is a fight, you'd better be on my side, it's good for the Ming Empire and me." ”

Fu Yuan didn't speak, he took out a poker from his waist, which he won from the crew of Teguang when he was in Majiagang, he carried three decks of cards and seven dice, and said: "You are an interesting person, buy and leave before the situation is decided, and come to play a few games for me." ”

"Win ten games and save your life; Lose one game to me, give me ten sheep. ”
