Chapter 353 His Majesty is an adult

Wanli and others looked outside in shock...

The Portuguese merchants who built this European-style building chose a higher terrain and also had a foundation that was much higher, so even in the living room on the first floor, His Majesty the Emperor could look out at the sea.

And on the originally dark sea, countless fires were shining.

As the flames shone, the outlines of the warships were clear, and he could even vaguely see the cannon doors that opened on both sides of the flames.

The whistling of shells passed by densely.

The Fanfang commercial area ahead of them was in chaos as the shells hit.

The second shell that hit the small building finally woke them up. Amid the unfortunate Guo Li screamed by the broken bricks, Liang Yunlong rushed towards the emperor without hesitation...

"Zhejiang Navy Mutiny, Your Majesty will leave!"

He yelled.

He is still very sober after experiencing the battlefield.

Wanli, who had also suffered a lot, also reacted and hurriedly rushed outside with his waist bent over. Liang Yunlong protected him. Together with the younger Li Tingji, the three of them rushed out the door as fast as possible. Zhou Guanghao stepped on his two old legs and tried to follow him, but the injured Guo Fu grabbed him and he quickly helped Guo Fu up. At this moment, the third shell hit the wall and was hit by the broken bricks that were brought up on them like shells. The two old ministers screamed and fell together.

The escaped emperor didn't care about them. Under the escort of Liang Yunlong and Li Tingji, he rushed out of the gate with his waist and turned to run north...

"Come to the county town, this cannon cannot hit the county town!"

His Majesty, who is already a qualified artillery, shouted.

indeed.

His Majesty the Emperor is a qualified artillery soldier.

You should know that he often fired the 24-pound giant cannons on Yuejiang Tower.

Li Tingji, who had seen such a scene for the first time, looked at Fanfang in front of him in shock. At this time, the entire Fanfang was already in a doomsday panic.

The soldiers who landed in Guangdong, the merchants and their black slaves, were all screaming in horror as the shells roared, and ran wildly like headless flies.

And shells kept falling beside them.

The powerful solid bullet shattered the houses like a piece of porcelain.

Even when they landed among them, they directly shot out a broken limb and the broken arms. The broken bricks aroused by the shells were swept through the crowd like shells. These unlucky merchants kept falling down. It has to be said that they were really in trouble. They had already lost a lot of money because of His Majesty the Emperor's exploitation and were harassed by the royal army. Now it has become a doomsday.

Here they were everything shattered under shell bombardment.

Even their special buildings...

Well, they have started to build various special buildings locally.

These foreign merchants are not only from Portugal. In fact, there are all countries currently engaged in maritime trade, mainly from Portugal, and the Spanish, Ryukyu, and Siamese. The Portuguese brought their Indian employees and black slaves, and the Spanish brought them Luzon slaves. The whole foreign merchant house was in a mess, like a hodgepodge of all kinds of monsters and monsters, and there were all things in it. The foreign merchant house was for them to live in, and no one cared about anything they did.

Zhoushan County Government is only responsible for collecting taxes and land rent. Every year, the taxes and rent paid to them by these foreign merchants are only hundreds of thousands of taels.

With so much money being paid, how could the local officials take care of them in making some special buildings?

Now these most eye-catching buildings are also the main targets of naval guns. After all, shooting requires an easy-to-identify target and then adjust it according to the landing point.

The sailors on the ship are familiar with these buildings, so they are naturally the first choice.

The unlucky merchants were crying and watching the destruction of their residential areas as they roared in the shells.

On the distant sea, under the reflection of the flames of the muzzle, the figures of the thirty-four warships were like thirty-four terrifying monsters. On the background of the night, they were constantly spraying flames at them. Thunderous cannons sounded through the sky. This was the bombardment of more than four hundred cannons. Even solid bullets were still razing the entire Fanfang to ruins.

"Ji Jin, what's going on?"

Li Tingji looked at Ji Jin, the general general of Zhejiang Navy who was running towards him with his personal soldiers.

"Gemaster Li, please ask Your Majesty to the county town, and you will go and suppress it!"

Ji Jin shouted anxiously.

He really doesn't know anything!

He was also a veteran. He had participated in the Battle of Luliang in history. He was a guard from Songmen, Taizhou. He was invited by the emperor to attend a banquet. Of course he would not return to the ship after drinking. He had his own Navy General Office here, so he naturally went to the Navy Office with a group of generals. As a result, he was awakened by the sound of cannons in the middle of the night. When he got up, he saw his fleet bombarding Fanfang. He was still loyal and hurried to save the emperor first.

But he really didn't know what was going on.

Because almost all the generals of the Zhejiang Navy participated in the imperial gift banquet and did not return to the ship, they knew nothing about the situation of the fleet.

But at this time, I no longer care about these things.

The most important thing is to hurry over and understand the situation and stop the shelling. Ji Jin is still very confident about this.

But as soon as he finished speaking, a shell hit him, and the broken paving slabs turned into pieces, one of which hit his leg in an instant.

Ji Jin fell down screaming, and his personal soldiers were also wailing at the same time.

"Go away!"

Liang Yunlong, who had already protected Wanli and was running away, urging him.

Li Tingji then woke up and quickly followed them. Then a large number of chaotic soldiers appeared. Liang Yunlong immediately called them, these were all Guangdong soldiers who followed the king to serve the king. They were still in awe of the governor and rushed forward to protect them. A group of people protected His Majesty the Emperor and continued to escape, but they still could not escape the range for a short time. The three thousand kilograms of red barbarian cannons on the warship were basically twelve pounds, and this level cannon was very powerful within one thousand meters, but if they really didn't care about accuracy and power, they were still available within two thousand meters.

Of course, there is no need to care about accuracy and power when bombing Fanfang.

Even at the limit of the range, more than a dozen pounds of iron balls falling from the sky are also a killer weapon.

On the Zhenhai number.

"Continue, don't stop!"

Yang Feng looked at the destruction of Fanfang in the distance with satisfaction.

This fan yard must be destroyed, not that it does not mean that it does not welcome overseas merchants, as these merchants are still very useful at least in the short term.

These are all gifts from the door.

But even so, he had to clean it up first.

We cannot let these overseas merchants live too well, this is leeks. We cannot let a crop of leeks grow into old leeks. We have to keep cutting them and eat tender leeks. Only when the tender leeks are delicious. When the Fanfang reaches a certain scale, we will clean up and turn the wealth of these Fanbao merchants into their own. Then the new Fanbao merchants will naturally start again. As long as the business is still in progress, there will never be a shortage of new people. Especially the overseas trade of the Ming Dynasty belongs to the seller's market, and all the goods sold are irreplaceable.

Even sugar is irreplaceable.

Now there is not even sugar outside, so if you want to buy these, you can only come to the Ming Dynasty.

There is no need to worry that this kind of cleaning will affect overseas trade and will not have any impact. If these foreign merchants die, more foreign merchants will come to continue their business soon.

Then let them continue to develop and clean them again when they can harvest season.

This is a good opportunity to make a fortune. Don’t use modern business to apply this era. This is how everyone plays in this era.

This is essentially the Spanish massacre in Manila.

The Chinese group led by Li Dan made too much money. Most of the silver shipped by the Spanish from the Americas came to their hands. Even in the Americas, it was rumored that he owned a mountain of gold, saying that he was richer than the Spanish king. In this case, the Spanish would certainly have to harvest a wave. The same was true for the Dutch massacre in Batavia. Before the massacre plantations around Batavia were 90% of the Chinese. If it made too much money, they would naturally have to harvest them. The way to harvest in this era was to massacre.

Industry rules!

As for whether this will hurt Your Majesty by chance...

Your Majesty is protected by gods, how could he be injured by shells? Besides, even if he is really injured, it can only be said to be a regrettable tragedy. From the beginning of his escape from Nanjing, he was destined to be out of peace. The outside world is very dangerous, and it is not something that people like him who grow up in the deep palace can understand. Even though His Majesty the Emperor had already experienced a lot at this time, he still could not truly recognize the dangers of the outside world.

He thought these gentry supported him as loyal to him?

People just want to have a bargaining chip, but fortunately they betray him when they need it.

Marshal Yang asked His Majesty the Emperor to live in Nanjing to protect him.

If he hadn't been in Nanjing for the past few years, he would have been killed by someone for the current chaotic situation in the Ming Dynasty.

real.

Don't his brother want to kill him?

On his younger brother's side, he is already the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty Shenzong.

So even if he was killed, he would just die a substitute Yang Feng got to deceive others.

But if he insists on committing suicide, then Yang Dashen has no choice. Since he is an adult, he must have the awareness of bearing the consequences if he makes a mistake.

Besides, this has nothing to do with Marshal Yang.

Marshal Yang was still in the capital at this time and did not go south at all!

It was not public to his future this time. He claimed to the outside world that he was still in the capital and was still commanding the war in the north. His instructions to Nanjing were to be cautious in all places and wait for him to resolve the north, including the Beijing camp that was originally planned to go north along the canal, which was also stopped by him.

"Comrade Yang, have you landed?"

Tang An said excitedly.

Since it is an uprising, of course, it cannot be just a bombardment of Fanfang, but also landing in and occupying Zhoushan.

There are Lu Yong troops on these warships, and there are also artillery guards in various parts of Zhoushan, and even a garrison in the city. These are subordinates of the navy. In addition to the fleet, the entire Zhejiang Navy has more than 30,000 naval and land soldiers in Zhoushan, which is enough to complete the control of Zhoushan. Then, using Zhoushan as the base to prepare to march towards Ningbo. No one on the sea can beat them.

"Get ashore? No, we don't need to land ashore for the time being. Just continue bombarding and wait. Believe me, there will be a result soon."

Yang Feng said with a smile.
Chapter completed!
