Chapter 1176: Conquest
Seeing the power of the Huaxia Navy, people, including Spain and Portugal, knew that even if they did not agree, the Huaxia Kingdom could be forcibly occupied. It's just that the Huaxia State does not want to occupy it by force, but wants to gain their support and occupy Malacca peacefully.
In the end, they still agreed to the conditions put forward by Huaxia State, on the one hand, the first two items, and the interests of Huaxia Kingdom were very large. On the other hand, if they do not agree, the negotiations break down. Without hesitation, the Chinese Congress killed them all in Luzon and violently occupied Malacca.
No one wants to die, not even these adventurers. And they also figured out that the original Malacca was very chaotic, and there were often fights, even if there were conflicts between them. However, with the strength of the Huaxia Kingdom, once they occupy Malacca, they will definitely unify Malacca with their strength, and then formulate rules. So it became a place of peace.
They didn't come all the way to fight. Of course, they don't mind using force if there is a possibility of conquest. But when they know they are not rivals, they also yearn for peace.
Agreeing with the third point of the Huaxia Kingdom, they sighed in their hearts that the Huaxia Kingdom owned Taiwan, the Ryukyus, the Wa Kingdom, Luzon and Malacca, and it could be said that it would occupy the shipping lanes of the entire Asia, and this would be the world of the Huaxia Kingdom in the future. They're trying to get their hands on Asia, and it's becoming impossible.
But, in any case, this is still within their reach. But when Huaxia Guo put forward the fourth point, it attracted a fierce backlash.
Huaxia was to form a caravan and ask them to be used as guides to follow them to Europe.
This is to master their waterways, and for caravans, waterways are the most important things, and to master a safe waterway is to master the source of wealth. Moreover, with the sea power of the Huaxia Kingdom, once they master the shipping route to Europe, I am afraid that it will not be their conquest of Asia, but the beginning of the conquest of Europe by the Huaxia Kingdom.
The negotiations dragged on, and the news quickly spread to Luo Sheng at sea, and then quickly to Luo Xin, who was sitting in the yamen of the prefect of Hangzhou.
Luo Xin couldn't help sighing, it seemed that it would not work to obtain a safe passage to European countries through this means. However, there are many opportunities and possibilities in the future. Now I don't have the overwhelming strength on my side. On the one hand, weapons still need to be upgraded, and on the other hand, there is also a need for a larger sailor. And a much larger naval division needs not only a fleet, but also sailors.
After the unification of the Ryukyus, the Wakos, Luzon and Malacca, the population problem was finally solved, and there was a sufficient population for them to select sailors.
When the fleet of the Huaxia Kingdom was replaced, the weapons were replaced, and the sailors were trained, at that time, it was the beginning of his ocean-going conquest.
The urgent thing now is to occupy Luzon and Malacca, and then make rules to completely digest the Japanese and Luzon and Malacca, and establish an Asian maritime empire. Be the rule-maker of this sea. No matter where the caravan comes from, follow the rules here.
Luo Xin's order reached Luo Sheng at sea, and Luo Sheng gave another order to the negotiating envoy. Without Article IV, the pace of negotiations has skyrocketed. It only took one day for an agreement to be reached.
Subsequently, the Huaxia Kingdom returned the captured sea ships to the merchants of various countries, and then completely occupied Luzon, turning Luzon into a province of the Huaxia State. A large number of officials arrived from Taiwan and began to govern and build Luzon. At the same time, the army of the Chinese Kingdom began to enter Malacca. Liquidate some of the resisters.
The cannon roared, and before peace, it was always bloodstained.
Luo Sheng cleared the money in Malacca, but those merchants of the vassal kingdom had already left Malacca and came towards the Ming Dynasty. Since there are no more Japanese robbers, and Huaxia promises safety, they naturally want to go to Daming to trade in a hurry. They have been here for a long time, and they are desperate to return to their homeland.
And they also broke off the idea of wanting to raise the price before, on the one hand, the Japanese were not exterminated by them, but jointly exterminated by the Daming Sailor and the Huaxia Sailor. On the other hand, the master of this sea area is now Huaxia Kingdom, if they dare to start a war against the Ming Dynasty, I am afraid that Huaxia Kingdom will not agree to be the first to break out in his territorial waters. The most important thing is that they heard that Luo Xin, who blocked the establishment of the city's ship, has returned, and this time Huaxia and the Daming Sailor jointly cleared the Japanese invaders, and it was this lord who planned it.
Therefore, when Malacca was still in a state of war, the city was already full of traffic, and all kinds of vehicles loaded with goods came and went at the wharf, whether it was a feudal merchant or a Ming person, with a bright smile on their faces.
Trade has finally started again, and capital is flowing again. What was once a pool of stagnant water came alive. Luo Xin was also smiling, and the first batch of commercial taxes collected had been shipped to the capital. After holding back the transaction for two years, Luo Xin suddenly collected a commercial tax of 4.5 million taels of silver, and I believe that this batch of silver was sent to the capital, and the shaking Ming Dynasty could finally stabilize.
By this time, Luo Xin's mission was completed. There is no need to be in the southeast anymore. Although Emperor Jiajing did not recruit him back, compared to waiting for the silver to be sent to the capital, Emperor Jiajing's edict should have arrived.
To be honest, Luo Xin didn't want to return to the capital now. Being able to stay outside for a while longer, Luo Xin felt safer. On the one hand, because the capital is now a big whirlpool, and it is a good policy to stay away from the whirlpool at this time. On the other hand, the older Emperor Jiajing gets, the more difficult his personality becomes, and people don't know when and what he will do. Therefore, Luo Xin did not set off to go back, but continued to stay in the southeast, waiting for Emperor Jiajing's edict. As for Luo Sheng's news, Luo Xin did not expect Luo Sheng to be able to take full control of Malacca anytime soon.
It takes time to occupy Malacca, to make the rules, to enforce the rules, to build Malacca. And as a rule-maker, you will definitely encounter constant resistance, which is a road to killing, and it takes time.
Luo Xin did not stay in Hangzhou either, but began to move around the south. When he came to the south to encircle and suppress the rogue and investigate the corrupt officials, he installed many officials in the south. Now that you're here, it's natural to walk around and deepen your relationship. Nearly a month passed like this, and Luo Xin finally received an edict from Emperor Jiajing, asking him to return to the capital. Luo Xin packed his bags and began to return to the capital.
Before he packed up and was ready to set off, he received a message from Luo Qing from the grassland. Luo Qing has completely opened up the Silk Road, and has found a path to Tianzhu, Tianfang and Persia. And we have already started to engage with these three countries. Luo Xin received the news and was overjoyed. immediately wrote a letter to Luo Qing, expressing several meanings in his heart.
