Chapter seven hundred and eleven: I hope Haibo is flat

Zhang Jing nodded consciously.

Then he said, "It's just these?"

The man said, "The Governor was very interested in them and asked them to settle in Ryukyu. I also asked me to find out their situation about the Jiangnan area. They were all talking about the emperor's stupidity and people were confused. They bought property in Ryukyu. They mentioned all the past, and they cried bitterly, and they only looked at them. One day, they could go back to the Ming Dynasty with the Governor's fleet."

Zhang Jingyi found it ridiculous.

But when you think about it carefully, it is probably the same mentality of people. They were originally a large family in Jiangnan, but they had to flee in a hurry and could not take away all the gold and silver. Many relatives were afraid that they would not have time. So they arrived at the place of Ryukyu, and their identity plummeted. What they missed every day was the glory of the past.

What's more, their ancestors were buried in the inland, so they never had homesickness. After thinking about it, the only way to go back was to count on the Netherlands.

In order to motivate the Netherlands, we must add fuel to the fire, which shows how weak the Ming Dynasty is, and praises the Netherlands for how strong the troops are.

Zhang Jingyi touched the case and then said, "You continue talking."

"Actually, the Dutch people are extremely smart... and the Governor may not be able to trust this. But... there are some words, but the Governor is vigilant..."

"What words."

"It is said that the Ming Dynasty has begun to set up shipping companies, and it has also followed the example of the Netherlands and Franchise Man and named East India. It has a great ambition. It not only established a considerable fleet, but also built ships day and night in Quanzhou, Tianjin Wei and other places, and used by navy and shipping companies..."

Zhang Jingyi said: "So...what do they think."

"They believe that the population is large, even if it is far inferior to the Netherlands in terms of shipping and ships, but if they are left alone, they will sooner or later surpass the Netherlands and Franchise countries. The Governor once discussed with the Franchise, believing that ten years might become a climate, and twenty years later, the Ming ships may... cause disasters to the world."

disaster?

Zhang Jingyi never expected that the Netherlands would use such words.

Logically speaking, what they do is colonize and massacre.

"Therefore... the Governor also wrote a book to communicate with his country, believing that it would sooner or later become a huge threat. At that time, not only would he lose Ryukyu, but even Lusong and Sumatra in Franji. And... it is possible that the Ming fleet will appear in the coastal seas of Franji and the Netherlands, burning and killing everywhere, becoming a new enemy."

Zhang Jingyi: “…”

This idea.

Zhang Jingyi stared at Lin Bin: "Does anyone believe it?"

"Many people believe it." Lin Bin said carefully: "In the Netherlands, some people wrote a book about these things. Thirty years later, the Ming fleet arrived in Europa and defeated the countries of Europa. So they began to build fortresses on all coasts, beat everyone, including the priests, into slaves, and do hard work in the manor. The Ming people waved their whips and beat Europa slaves at will. If women were defiled and pregnant, they would be executed. If men did not accept discipline, they would chop off their hands..."

Zhang Jingyi: “…”

Lin Bin said: "So, the Governor was extremely nervous and believed that the situation should not continue to develop like this."

"And then."

"And then I heard that in Rome, there was a meeting that had discussed this matter, saying that it was a conquest... to send a fleet to the Ming Dynasty to completely eliminate all the fleets of the Ming Dynasty and destroy all the docks along the coast... so that the Ming Dynasty would never have the ability to build ships. Of course, all countries had their own needs. The Portuguese were weak and hoped to get compensation. The Spaniards were strong, so they believed that they should invade several wealthy lands to compensate. The Netherlands hoped to open all ports and obtain the Penghu area. As for other countries... the villains... they didn't know much."

"Of course, these are all secrets. What the villain heard was just some rumors. It is unknown what it was. But... two years ago, the Governor ordered me to enter the inland to collect various information about the Ming Dynasty, especially the bandits, the gentry in Jiangnan, and the source of the Ming ship materials... These days, I even directly ordered the villain to inquire about the number of troops garrisons of the Haiwei, the number of ships of the navy, and the level of training."

When Zhang Jing heard this, she couldn't help but be speechless.

In fact, the Spanish in history did have an expedition plan for the Ming Dynasty. As for the Netherlands... they also fought with the Ming Dynasty in the Penghu area.

Of course, this kind of fight...is not large in scale.

But Zhang Jingyi still didn't believe it, just because of the so-called concern for the threat to the Ming Dynasty, these people with ulterior motives were willing to unite.

Zhang Jing touched the case, was silent for a moment, and said, "Is it just these? These are the reasons? Lin Bin, it seems that you are not very honest!"

Lin Bin was already shocked.

Zhang Jing was so murderous: "Do you think that if we hold you, you will know nothing about the overseas situation? You see, it won't be a big deal. You are going to die at all times. Since you don't want to die more happily, that's fine."

Many people will issue threats.

But obviously, in this place, Zhang Jingyi's threat is definitely enough to make people scared.

Lin Bin said tremblingly: "I...I...I...there is another thing that may have contributed to this matter...that is...there is a huge problem in the Bank of the Netherlands, which triggered a huge disaster in the entire Europa. I heard that this matter has a huge impact. Because of the bank's crisis, East India companies in various countries have been greatly affected. In the past two years, East India stocks, which have always been rising, have plummeted continuously. Moreover...even the royal families of various countries have also experienced turmoil, because everyone found that the money stored in the bank could not be withdrawn. The funds that could have been borrowed were now unable to borrow now. I heard that many merchants have gone bankrupt. Even the royal family...the finances have also occurred. I heard that the people in the Governor's Office are also talking about this matter...it is said that only a new conquest can solve the current problem. Otherwise... the consequences cannot be imagined..."

"Is that true?" Zhang Jing thought when she heard this.

The bank run in the Netherlands triggered...the legendary economic crisis.

So far, they have not emerged from the crisis.

Therefore, what I said before is actually false, or just excuses, threats, and the Ming Dynasty has countless wealth. The real reason is... After the crisis, before many royal crowns were implemented, I hope... can solve this problem with a huge war?

"What's their judgment on this."

"judge?"

"It's why they think they can defeat the Ming Dynasty."

"The judgment is very simple." Lin Bin said: "When the Japanese pirates attacked the Ming Dynasty, it was during the Jiajing period. The Japanese pirates caused great damage, killed a lot of soldiers and civilians, and countless wealth robbed. The Ming Dynasty court also took more than ten years to barely eliminate the Japanese pirates."

Lin Bin swallowed and spitted, and then said: "Now, the ships of the Franchise and the Netherlands are ten times stronger than those of the Japanese pirates, and their combat power is ten times stronger than those of the Japanese pirates. Even the Ming Dynasty at this time was stronger than that of the Jiajing period, and it was enough to teach the Ming Dynasty to be in a hurry and had to sign the city alliance with them...at least... they thought so..."

Zhang Jing frowned. He actually understood what tactics these people were planning to adopt.

Therefore, Zhang Jing joined in and said, "Is there anything else that has not been explained?"

Lin Bin said aiyi: "That's all, these... I have reported to Wang Qianshi..."

Zhang Jing nodded: "Do you still have relatives in the inland?"

Lin Bin said: "It's early... it's gone... it's gone."

Zhang Jingyi sighed and said, "What a pity...but... you are afraid that there are many relatives overseas and you will have to wait for some time."

As he said that, he ordered the clerk beside him and said, "Have you remembered it all?"

"I've written it down."

"Well, pack it up and copy it again. I want to report it. In addition... this person... is handed over to Wu Changchun. He has become too unfamiliar with his skills recently. If he doesn't do it well, tell him, then he will be useless!"

"yes."

Lin Bin obviously didn't know what he was going to face, and listened in confusion about Zhang Jingyi's conversation with the clerk.

But Zhang Jingyi had already left the interrogation room quickly and took a deep breath. He was a little surprised and always felt that everything about to happen might be a bit unreal.

As he said, he said to Liu Wenxiu who came with him: "Remember, then Feishu will give Wang Cheng. First, let him find out whether the so-called war is true. In the detailed work of Xiao Liuqiu and Luzon, you must carefully check clues, such as... If a large number of fleets really come, new docks and ports will inevitably be built in case of emergencies. In addition, see if they are stocking up food and grass. Second, if the ships come, then... how large is the scale, how many people are there, and how many countries are involved."

Zhang Jing paused and continued: "Thirdly, is there a large number of fine works like Lin Bin in the inland? And... how many soldiers and merchants who fled out of the past? Of course, some things... may involve the other party's secrets. If you want to find them clearly, it is not easy. If you find them, you have to find out as much as you find out. After you have the news, you must immediately send them to the capital. Raising soldiers for a thousand days will last for a while. It is time for him to do his best to do his best."

Liu Wenxiu nodded: "I have recorded it all, and I'll send it out later."

Zhang Jingyi then lowered his head and said, "Japanese pirates...Japanese pirates..."

He muttered: "If it were the Japanese pirates' fighting style, it would be not very good. In the Jiangnan area... who can be Hu Zongxian, who are Qi Jiguang and Yu Dayou?"
