Whether it was Mao Weizhang, the new right protector of the Naval Governor's Office, who brought Fei Yangguo to the palace for an audience, or the subsequent visit of Bi Denghan with the envoy of the Tsushima Domain, it did not leave any major traces on the court of the capital division in September.

After Mao Wei and Zhang met Emperor Chongzhen, after reuniting with his family and friends in Beijing for a few days, he quickly went to Tianjin with a new task.

And Fei Yangguo was taken to Qufu by Jinyiwei and handed over to the Yansheng Mansion for discipline.

Although Emperor Chongzhen had not yet received a letter of gratitude from the Yansheng Mansion, by the end of September, the eleven-year-old doll had already begun to read the Analects with the children of the Longkong Mansion.

As for Guibo Genfang and Yanagawa Choxing from the Tsushima Domain, one was preoccupied, and the other couldn't help but embark on the return journey to Donggang and Seoul to exchange covenants.

In short, in September of the third year of Chongzhen, the court of the Ming Dynasty was stable and steady, and the war that occurred in the southeast sea and the northwest land of the Ming Dynasty at this time did not seem to have the slightest impact on the people here.

The officials were still busy inspecting and appointing court officials who went to Hezhong, Naturalization, Xuanda, Rehe and other places to arrange posts;

On the one hand, the household department was busy reducing or exempting the regular rules and additional arrangements of the northern provinces, and was busy issuing documents urging the southern provinces to collect and transfer the summer and autumn taxes for the three years of Chongzhen, and on the other hand, urging the drought-stricken immigrants to go to the places designated by the imperial court as soon as possible.

The Ministry of Rites was busy with the Tianxia Township Examination in August, and then began to garrison the affairs of the clan with the Zongren Mansion, while paying close attention to the death of the acting king Zhu Dingwei, while urging the Hanlin Academy to re-transcribe and follow the jade of the new Emperor Ming Clan.

As for the Ministry of War, the Ministry of Criminal Affairs, and the Ministry of Industry, of course, they also have their own affairs.

On the one hand, Nan Juyi, the secretary of the Ministry of War, personally led the staff department to be busy establishing rules and regulations, standardizing and straightening out the relationship between the Governor's Office of the Five Armies and the border military barracks and soldiers in all parts of the world, the Metropolitan Guards, and the Tusi private soldiers, etc., while supervising the Armament Academy, mobilizing manpower to set up the Baiyecheng No. 3 Gun Factory, and stepping up efforts to imitate rifled guns that were more advanced than Chongzhen's flintlock muskets.

At the same time, inspired by rifled guns, Sun Yuanhua and others also applied for another grant from Emperor Chongzhen, and cooperated with the Ministry of Industry to try to cast linear rifled guns on the basis of the Great General Cannon and the Shenwei Invincible Great General Cannon.

In addition to participating in the imitation of linear rifled guns and linear rifled guns of the Third Gun Factory, Emperor Chongzhen also once again issued the task of manufacturing airships according to the principle of Kong Ming lanterns to the Ministry of Industry and the Engineering College led by Song Yingxing and others.

Even the Criminal Department, in accordance with the arrangement of Emperor Chongzhen, began to clean up the world's prisons, except for the heinous crimes that were not immediately executed in the autumn, the other punishments were all confiscated according to the severity of the crime, Liaodong, Dongjiang, Yingzhou, as well as Yunnan, Guizhou, Hainan and Dongfan and other border wastelands.

Throughout August and September, the yamen of the five armies and six departments of the Beijing Imperial Court were busy with various matters in accordance with Emperor Chongzhen's plan step by step.

At the same time, Zheng Zhilong joined hands with the Dutch to fight against the Spaniards, and the war also came to the stage of saber rattling and arrows.

Since the Dutch East India Company's envoy to the Governor's Palace in Batavia met Emperor Chongzhen at the beginning of the year, he hurriedly went south with Emperor Chongzhen's promise and the missionary Condenius and others who went back to collect donations.

Along the way, Bidno, Condinius, and others, accompanied by the pedestrian department of the Imperial Court, first visited Wen Tiren, the governor of Fujian and Zhejiang, and after receiving Wen Tiren's support, they went to the Dutch East India Company's city of Rebar, at the southern end of Dongfan Island, and met with the so-called governor Hans-Putmans, who was sent here by the Dutch at this time.

Subsequently, accompanied by officials from the Fujian and Zhejiang Governor's Mansion, Bi Denuo and others went to Beigang, where the Dongfanwei command embassy was located, and met with Zheng Zhilong, the highest official of the Ming Dynasty in Dongfandao.

In this way, after a series of meetings, Zheng Zhilong and the Dutch reached an agreement on an armistice and trade in the Dayuan region.

In accordance with the promise given by Emperor Chongzhen, the Dutch East India Company could continue to retain their garrisons and merchant houses in Rebansha City, and continue to purchase deer skins and native products on Dongfan Island in Rebansha, but they were not allowed to continue to build castles and military strongholds on the main island of Dongfan.

At the same time, Zheng Zhilong also withdrew the fleet besieging the city of Rebar, and lifted the blockade of the Dutch in the Dayuan area in the southern part of Dongfan Island.

However, in the process of blockading and besieging the city that lasted for more than a year, all the people under Zheng Zhilong's command were not idle.

Zheng Zhilong mobilized a large number of young people who immigrated to Dongfan, spent a year and spent a lot of money, and built Dayuan City on the shore of Taijiang Bay (near the urban area of Tainan in later generations), which is across the sea from the Kunshen Island where the city is located, and arranged for his brother Zheng Ming and the general He Bin to assist his younger brother Zheng Zhibao to lead the army to garrison Dayuancheng, which greatly strengthened Zheng's control over the southern part of Dongfan.

Therefore, by this time, even if the Dutch in the city of Rebarsha wanted to continue to occupy the southern part of Dongfan Island, they did not have the opportunity they had before.

If it weren't for the Dutch East India Company's Governor's Office in Batavia that sent an envoy to Beijing to meet Emperor Chongzhen in a timely manner, and succeeded in obtaining some promises from Emperor Chongzhen, then I am afraid that in the last year and a half, the Dutch power on Dongfan Island would have been completely eradicated twenty years earlier than in the original history.

As for Emperor Chongzhen's practice under the mistake of the sun, whether it is right or wrong, he himself can't say clearly.

Now he only knows that on the one hand, he can't let the Dutch develop and grow on Dongfan Island, and on the other hand, he can't let Zheng Zhilong's power really grow on Dongfan Island.

For the Dutch, a small country that did not dare to covet the Ming Dynasty, Emperor Chongzhen's strategy was to win over if he could, and use it if he could, because although this small country was advanced, it could not pose a real threat to the Ming Dynasty.

Only for a colonial empire like Spain, which tried to conquer the Ming Dynasty, Emperor Chongzhen's idea was to expel them from the periphery of the Ming Dynasty.

Because a colonial empire like Spain could neither win over nor use it, and they were massacring the Chinese immigrants in Nanyang at every turn, and they could not cooperate at all except confrontation.

Emperor Chongzhen's idea was implemented on Dongfan Island, which was to cooperate with the Dutch to eradicate the Spaniards who were entrenched in the chicken coop area at the northern tip of Dongfan Island.

Since the beginning of August, this idea of Emperor Chongzhen has entered the stage of implementation under the strong advocacy of Bidno, the envoy of the Dutch East India Company to the Viceroyalty of Batavia, and with the active support of the Governor's Office of Fujian and Zhejiang.

The Dutch worked so hard because the Spaniards had swelled so quickly in the northern part of the island.

In the sixth year of the Apocalypse, the city of San Salvador was built on Sheliao Island off the coast of Jilong Mountain;

In the seventh year of the Apocalypse, the city of San Diego was built in the Chicken Long Port (later Keelung Port) at the foot of the Chicken Long Mountain;

In the first year of Chongzhen, the city of Santo Domingo was built in the area north of the mouth of the Tamsui River on the west coast of Dongfan;

In the second year of Chongzhen, the city of San Lorenzo was built on the territory of the Kamalam people on the east coast of Dongfan (later Yilan Suao Port).

If there were only a few strongholds of San Salvador, San Diego, and Santo Domingo, the Dutch patience would have passed, but the city of San Lorenzo, built by the Spaniards in the only coastal plain area on the east coast of Dongfan (later the Yilan region), completely angered the Dutch.

This was the place that the Dutch had coveted for a long time, and it was on the trade supply line of the Dutch East India Company to the Ryukyus and the Japanese archipelago.

After the Spanish built the city here, not to mention that the Dutch trade on the east coast of Tofan Island would be interrupted, and the merchant ships of the Dutch East India Company would have nowhere to dock for supplies after leaving Rebarsha, as far as the Ryukyu long sea.

If it weren't for the sudden siege of Rebarsha by Zheng's army, the Dutch would have gone north to seize this territory.

Now that the Spaniards have taken advantage of the danger, the Dutch East India Company cannot tolerate it.

Historically, the Dutch on Dongfan Island were not strong enough, and it was not until ten years later that they suddenly launched an attack and attacked the Spanish castles, driving the Spanish forces out of Dongfan Island in one fell swoop.

But in this life, Shen Tingyang's trip to Batavia, and then Biednor's trip to Beijing, made the Dutch East India Company determined to move ahead of schedule.

One of the aims, of course, was to eliminate the Spanish threat to the Dutch East India Company's shipping routes to the Ryukyus and Japan.

The other purpose is to attract Zheng Zhilong's attention to the north, and to attract Zheng Zhilong's forces to the north, which can be regarded as a strategy to lead the water to the north.

In fact, there is no need for the Dutch's strategy of diverting the troubles to the north, and Zheng Zhilong's expansion speed against the Spaniards is already unbearable.
