The windows of the tavern were rusted with the corrosion peculiar to the coast, and Libera's pipe-holding hand pointed to the yamen by the town square.

"The first thing that was not there was was the city magistrate, the city hall became the Haojing Yamen, and Chen Mu, who had only a few hundred subordinates at that time, defeated the Portuguese army in Macau with the same number of troops, took away the forts we built, and hundreds of Malays and Portuguese explorers were killed by him, and the victory allowed him to make binding laws and taxes."

"He took the foundation stone of the church to pave the way, and he sent people into our hospitals, universities, and cannon foundries to learn what they did not have and could not know, but he refused to learn theology, and the soldiers of Macao were no match for them."

"At that time, no one knew that there were only a few hundred people with high morale and fierce battles like his subordinates, in fact, there were not many soldiers like that in the whole of Guangdong, and we mistakenly thought that there were many generals like him and many soldiers like him, and even the bishop thought that even if he transferred troops from India, he could not defeat him."

"Actually, it was possible to defeat at that time, but when he provoked Malacca, everyone chose to be silent, and his ferocity took away people's courage, just like what was done to your Spanish army in Luzon and on the island of Linlai."

"Later, the church was built at the strong request of the Portuguese living in Macao, but he no longer allowed us to dig the stone mines, and the stone mines were continued by his people, and every stone of the cathedral was bought anew; The artillery factory closed down, because the experienced craftsmen were poached by the Nanyang Guard Weapons Bureau at a high price, and after learning everything, they were kicked out and left in the streets, and those people had to take a boat back to India. ”

"It's the same in hospitals, they are smarter than our doctors in some places, and the opposite is true in some places, but we don't know where they are smart, and they will see where we are smart, and no one realizes that everything Chen Mu did had a purpose."

"Now, the hospital has become a temporary shelter for lepers and Spanish patients, and there are no Ming people to see them, and they trust their doctors more." Libera's identity spread out her hands, with an indescribable frustration on her face, and said: "The person who is in charge of this disease is called bayberry sore, as for Chen Mu, he does not allow any Ming person who has this disease to pass through the gate, if it is a Ming person, he will be exiled to Shangchuan Island and Xiachuan Island." ”

"If it weren't for Akito, waiting in the hospital for the next ship back to India, and not wanting to leave, he would be hung on a shallow sea pillar and kill people, and he never showed mercy."

"Now only the university is still useful, but there are only a dozen priests and bachelors in the university, the missionary cause has been stagnant for a while, and the bishop even wants to use a person to give three taels of silver to recruit believers, but even if he really uses such means, General Bai of Guangdong is the senior officer in charge of this place after he leaves, and Macao has always been under their supervision."

"As soon as the news came out, General Bai let his subordinates come to the nest in civilian clothes, and after receiving the silver, he left and then did not appear."

"After 20 years of preaching, there are not as many believers as Chen Mu's subordinates who built a temple for him in Haijiao, Macau, and I told the bishop that this is a land abandoned by God, and they don't believe it."

"If God hears the call, why not punish this blasphemous bastard who does all kinds of evil and drown in the sea?"

Libera picked up the wine bowl and drank half of it, spread her hands on the table and said: "Now you know, what Chen Mu started by, he relied on killing us to sit firmly in Xiangshan Thousand Households; Kill the ships we get, defeat their pirates, become the commander of the legion, and get the opportunity to go north; When he comes back, he will make his achievements even more important by killing you. ”

"Whoever wants to preach here will preach it, and when I have done a good job of entrusting you with this peace negotiation, I will return to China."

Tang Juan didn't speak for a long time, looking at the wine bowl and not knowing what he was thinking, until the candle was halfway burned, he looked up and sighed: "Can one person have such a great impact on a country?" ”

As far as Father Libera said, it was as if everything that happened to Portugal in the Ming Kingdom was because of Chen Mu alone!

It's unbelievable.

"If he's really that good, why don't you ......," Don Juan raised his hand to make a movement around his neck, "All it takes is a buckshot to get rid of this trouble at the right time." ”

"That's something you Spaniards have to think about, Portugal won't do this, we don't want to annoy the Ming Kingdom to lose India, lose Malacca, compared to the consequences of annoying the Ming, it's not bad now, you can trade, and Macau is also safe."

Father Libera looked at Don Juan with a sneering look in his eyes, and said: "On the whole, the officials of the Ming Kingdom think that the Portuguese are also his people, if a tax official is killed, it means that the Portuguese rebel, all the Portuguese will die, and when Bai Jingchen's warriors pour out, Malacca and even India, will die." ”

"Macao belongs to Xiangshan County, a county like Xiangshan, there are ten in Guangzhou, there are 20 in Liangguang in places like Guangzhou, and there are 13 in Daming in places like Guangdong Province." Father Libera said mockingly: "Your Excellency defeated the Ottoman navy at Lepanto and destroyed their two hundred and thirty ships, do you know how many ships are launched in a year at the Xiangshan shipyard?" ”

"One hundred and fifty, one hundred, three guns, ten sailors, and a fishing boat called a hundred things; Forty and eleven guns carried twenty or thirty warships called two hundred small shark ships; There were also ten even larger 500 shark boats, but those boats were not used by the common people and merchants, so they didn't know what they were loaded on. ”

Don Juan's eyes widened and exclaimed, "They use gunboats to fish? ”

Libera shrugged and said: "The Ming court used to stipulate how many ships a guard had, and before General Chen took power, he handed over the many warships to the fishermen and the farmers of the guard, so as to avoid impeachment, and also to ensure that there were enough warships in wartime, and on the other hand, it could also allow the people to guard against the seamen, the smallest fishing boat had sunk the ship sent by the Indian governor. ”

"Later, he took power, why do you fight, he is not satisfied with this kind of small boat, build a bigger warship, so the coastal guard is still using this kind of boat to fish, I heard that in the sea between Guangxi and another country's neighbors, no one can rob the fishing ground with the Ming people, and the pirates and the navy can't."

"Nanyangwei on the other side of the sea is the shipyard that built warships for him, and I only know that wood and iron at home and abroad are being sent to Nanyangwei. It's useless to kill him now, he is highly regarded by the emperor, and his school has four hundred officers like him entering the army every year, and your Excellency doesn't want those warships to sail to Spain, right? ”

Libera flicked the dust on his body, Portugal had accepted the status quo of this distribution of resources in Macau, and he said to Don Juan: "Of course, I just don't recommend that if you want to try, just go and assassinate him." ”

Tang Juan's face was not good-looking, Chen Mu's good impression on him had disappeared in the rise and fall of Macau, he sighed and said: "His treaty is not a good thing, the priest told me to be vigilant, but I can only sign it vigilantly, knowing that it is poison, and I have to eat it in my stomach?" ”

"The church has analyzed that he wants to make profits, and he will also cheat people, but he is quite restrained, and if he takes the lion's share of the benefits, he will let you take the rest, which is not the same as what we do overseas."

"Huh! Even if it's the same. Libera laughed miserably, "That's all we can think!" ”

At this moment, the gongs and drums sounded in the town square, and Don Juan heard people running upstairs to tell each other that the Portuguese Viceroy of India had sent to sign the treaty!./14_14088/
