Although less than one percent of the island's population of two or three million people is Han Chinese, the name of this island has been called Tangmin Island since the second year of Wanli.

Since the establishment of a governor by the Minister of Nanyang, it has become an overseas enclave of the Ming Dynasty, enjoying the advantage of being close to the Strait of Malacca, although the tribal leaders on the island are still in dispute after Lin Ah Feng left, and even after the influx of firearms in the Ming Dynasty, this still does not prevent the gradual prosperity of the place and the formation of a unique offshore commercial culture.

The westernmost part of the island is adjacent to the Tucheng of Sumatra, which was called the 'Golden State' in this era, called Phoenix City, and on the turret of the Tucheng is Lin Feng's consistent and domineering handwriting.

Even if the defenders in front of the gate wore the blue cloth rivet armor of the guards and wore the brave helmets on their heads, they still couldn't hide their temperament as pirates.

Since Lin Afeng was ordered by Chen Mu to fight from east to west, this island once became the largest pirate island in the whole world, even if Lin Daoqian took over the position of governor of Tangmin Island - Lin Daoqian was also a pirate.

And also a pirate governor.

Yin Zhengmao wore a general's breastplate from Nanyang on his chest, and his iron arm was pressed to the hilt of his sword, and he did not order the navy to land, nor did he get off the ship to enter this declining and undignified earthen city.

Guangxi, the flagship of the Western Fleet, is anchored in the shallow sea off the Phoenix Harbor, and this new 2,000-material battleship built by the Nanyang Shipyard is half a bow longer than Liuding Liujia, and the three-story gun deck is covered with a large number of heavy guns.

This flagship of the Western Minister was originally scheduled to be the best 2,500 heavy artillery warship that Nanyang Wei could build, and it was to be transferred to the flagship of the Nanyang Minister to replace Chihai to replenish the sea power, and was asked by Yin Zhengmao to come to Gao Gong and fill the Western Fleet, which should have been launched four months ago, but was ordered by the owner Yin Zhengmao to rectify the ship shape system, and cut down 500 materials to have its current appearance.

Because Yin Zhengmao heard from somewhere that Nanyangwei Shipyard took over the mission of manufacturing Wanli ships and Nantang ships, of which the Nantang ship is 2,000 materials and the Wanli ship is 2,500 materials, so ...... Even so, this is still a rare sea monster.

At this moment, Yin Zhengmao was looking at Lin Daoqian, the governor of Tangmin Island, with a long sword on his waist and crotch, saying that the boat was slowly rowing from the harbor to the big boat, and the marshal Zhang Yuanxun handed the binoculars to Yin Zhengmao and said, "Yin Gong, his face is like, Lin Afeng probably didn't come back." ”

Zhang Yuanxun is not a small person, fifteen-year-old Xiucai, sixteen-year-old his father Haimen guard officer Zhang Kai scattered the family to gather troops to fight the Japanese and died, seventeen-year-old attack on the sea gate guard hundreds, since then to resist the Japanese to avenge his father, transferred to the coast of Zhejiang and Fujian provinces, when guarding Fujian, the official army and Zeng Yi were repeatedly defeated, he took the initiative to ask Ying to win six battles, burned and sank three hundred enemy ships, and then followed Yin Zhengmao with troops in Guangxi.

Now it was the time to retire after success, and when Yin Zhengmao was appointed as the Minister of the West, he transferred the two generals to conquer the West.

As for Lin Daoqian...... It was difficult for him not to 'eat' and deal with these court officials, so Chen Mu and his family barely let him be afraid and worried.

But in addition to Chen Mu's family, it doesn't matter whether it is Yin Zhengmao, who was in charge of Liangguang and Guangzhou, who has persuaded him to surrender, or Zhang Yuanxun's family, who led troops in Fujian in the past and is both an enemy and a comrade, for Lin Daoqian, it is best not to see it, but it is best to write a letter if there is something, but now that he has to see it because of his official position, where can he be happy on his face?

These people don't know when they're going to take their lives!

The guns of several turrets in Phoenix City were aimed at the Guangxi ship.

"Forgive him for not daring to come back!"

The old Governor Liangguang's originally cold face widened suddenly, and he took a few deep breaths to calm down a little, and when he saw that Lin Daoqian had arrived under the boat, he said in a deep voice: "Pick up Governor Tangmin." ”

After saying that, he raised his legs and walked to the bow of the boat, mentioning Lin Afeng, and his heart was still turbulent.

"Xiaguan Lin Daoqian, meet the Duke of Yin!" After Lin Daoqian got on the boat, he didn't have that stinky face, and bowed as if there had never been unpleasant in the past, and then bowed his hand and said: "The military academy has come from afar, why don't you go into the city to rest for a while, the department has prepared a banquet, although the poor land is bland, but it is better than drifting on the sea, and you can also be a little relieved of the fault of not being able to meet the marshal far away." ”

"Hypocrisy and politeness will be forgiven, Governor Lin, isn't it uncomfortable to drink with the old man?" Yin Zhengmao shrugged his shoulders and sneered, waved his hand and said, "Lin Afeng, you haven't entered Phoenix Harbor since March?" ”

Hearing this, Lin Daoqian's heart suddenly felt comfortable - great! These plague gods are not here to find themselves!

"No, the last time Leader Lin came back was in January, repaired the warships in the port, purchased a large amount of grain, grass and ordnance, and set off for the west." Lin Daoqian said a word, and then he dared to look up at Yin Zhengmao's expression, and said, "Where did Leader Lin anger Yin Gong?" When he left, he also said that it was because the Western military government was out of Malacca, and he was worried that he would get into trouble, so he wanted to collect troops and leave from the Lion Country...... He didn't go? ”

"It's good that you didn't go down!"

Yin Zhengmao mentioned that Lin Feng was not half angry, but he was unwilling to talk to Lin Daoqian in detail.

In the past six months, Chen Mu has been in the north to fight in the army, and he has not been idle in Malacca, because Liangguang has his ready-made old department, and it is easier to mobilize troops than in the north, and the difficulty of Western affairs is that he has no understanding of the things west of Malacca, so he has been arranging strategies.

Speaking of the second difficulty, it is even more difficult, the East and West are actually using the surplus strength of Nanyang to form a team, Chen Mu relies on the benefits of the new establishment of Beijing Yun and Beiyang Yamen, and has financial resources; Yin Zhengmao of the West took the power of the South Seas to make weapons, and the ships and guns and soldiers were all ready, but there was no money.

Before going abroad, he thought that 200,000 taels was a lot, but once the Western military government was established, there was money everywhere, and the taxes in Malacca were the territory of the Nanyang high arch, so he couldn't eat the meat that had already been cooked, so he could only find another source of wealth.

Therefore, Yin Zhengmao's strategy was to form a triangular trade with Malacca, the Lion State, and Burma, and to purchase its abundant gems from the Lion State, and to buy a large amount of grain from Myanmar, and the two trade routes through Malacca were sent to the country to become silver taels, so as to supply the Western military government for greater development - it was a good thing, and the Western military government could solve the financial problem and get more food in the country.

But this matter was ruined by Lin Afeng.

Before Lin Afeng left from the Lion Country, he didn't know how to take away nearly seventy percent of the gems in the country, and he didn't give money - he said that the Western ministers of the court would come to give money, and the Lion King really believed it!

There is also the Arakan country next to Burma, where the navy originally hired a Portuguese army, and had the power at sea that made the reckless dragon in the past fearful, but before Lin Afenglin left this sea, their fleet was plundered by ships with sails of Linzi, and the pirates rushed to the land to plunder more than 2,000 local people, burning three coastal ports.

The Portuguese also thought that the Ming Dynasty was at war with them, and Goa imprisoned the Ming merchants and prepared their armies for war.

The situation was messed up by him, but Lin Afeng disappeared.

Yin Zhengmao doesn't have to do anything, just wipe Lin Afeng's buttocks!

"It's not just for this matter that the old man has no talent to deal with Portugal, please go to Goa and let them release the businessman." When it came to this, Yin Zhengmao was also very helpless, and said: "They don't believe that Lin Afeng is a pirate. ”

"Explain to them clearly, it's just pirates, not officials and soldiers - if it weren't for the fact that the old man was responsible for the imperial court to open up the Western Ocean, I really wanted the fleet to go over and let them know the difference between the Ming army and pirates."
