Four hundred and ninetieth chapters weak Nanyang
The news from Nanyang is still very well-informed.
Because Zhao Liang had set up an office in Pontianak and published the Sin Chew Daily in Zhaojiapo. If Chen Jun took over the capital and Qianlong had died, it would be published directly.
Artin of Batavia sighed in annoyance when he heard the news.
"God. More than 300,000 troops were annihilated in just one month. Are those soldiers from the Qing Empire pigs?"
He could no longer say anything to the Qing soldiers.
What else can Artin say when more than 300,000 people were annihilated in three battles in such a short time?
Well, first, there were more than 100,000 people personally conquered by Qianlong, and then the Eight Banners soldiers in Yanjing City. If they added one, wouldn’t it be 300,000? There was no problem at all.
Arting was completely disappointed with the Qing Dynasty.
Now he can only be glad that the Netherlands and the UK signed an agreement, and fortunately the local government is gradually approaching the UK. The two sides have reached a tacit understanding and even signed a secret agreement jointly against the Zhao family.
When necessary, the British have an obligation to protect the interests of the Netherlands in the Far East.
Otherwise, if Zhao Liang turned around and declared war on Batavia again, what would he use to support his face?
As for saying that Zhao Liang would not shout at Batavia, Artin absolutely did not believe it.
The Qing Dynasty lost all the country, can Zhao Liang not know the arms agreement between the Dutch and the Qing Empire? At this time, he must shout and shout twice.
Anyway, it’s just empty talk, and you don’t have to do it. A few words can make the Batavian authorities look down upon and let the indigenous monkeys in Southeast Asia see hope. Why don’t the Chinese do it?
Unfortunately, he couldn't avoid all this.
Just because of lack of strength.
The Netherlands is now in a quagmire, with internal and external troubles, and its local area is unstable. Who has any worries to pay attention to overseas colonies?
What's more, Batavia is just the territory of the Dutch East India Company, and is a "commercial" land, which is very different from the genuine national colonies.
Batavia has received the news, and Luo Fangbo and others from Pontianak have naturally received the news.
These senior officials of the Lanfang regime suddenly found that their rule had become stronger.
Neither external threats nor internal threats have become worth mentioning.
Of course, Luo Fangbo knew that this was the reward he received after he was beaten.
Even though they were unwilling to go to the U-Start at first, and they didn't even have the right to choose which side of the chips to be held, now everyone wants to say "It's really delicious".
"Governor General, we have received a letter from a Chinese businessman, and the signator is Cai Qian. The letter said that they have obtained conclusive evidence of the sale of arms between the company and the Qing Dynasty. This is an act that is absolutely not allowed and is an act that is very contrary to the interests of the betrayer."
"They need an explanation from the company. Otherwise, Zhao Jiapo's fleet would drive outside Batavia Harbour."
After hearing the secretary's words, Artin closed his eyes tightly.
What should I do? He is at a loss now.
When Artin decided to do business in the Qing army, he never thought that there would be today.
At that time, any of his homeland would soon replenish the surface power of Batavia, and the huge Qing Empire would also teach his own rebellious lessons.
But now...
Everything is going the other way around.
At the same time, Jose Basco Vargas, the governor of Luzon of Manila, also felt headaches for Zhao Jiapo's protests.
This is an old bureaucrat who has been in the position of governor for eight years.
But no matter how experienced the bureaucrat is, he is not worth mentioning if he has no hard power in his hands.
Just like the Dutch's internal and external troubles, the big duck is now paralyzed.
A war of independence that funded the bald eagle caused serious financial crisis on both sides of Faspis.
However, the biggest problem with the big duck now is that the old king is old and his life is not long. Crown Prince Carlos IV is a mediocre person. He is short-sighted and prone to obeying people, especially because his ears are extremely soft and his will is very fragile.
At this critical moment, the big duck caught up with such a thing, and it was God who would not give them a way out.
Moreover, with the demise of the Zheng family, the military power of the Daban Duck in Luzon has been weakening, especially after this century, how weakened the Spanish army in Luzon. In 1744 of the Western calendar, Morales, the priest of Inabangan Town, Baohe Island, refused to hold a funeral for the police who died of the "public", so that the corpse could not be buried for three days. The police brother Daohui angrily called for an uprising. It was also the Daban Duck who was in trouble. At that time, Baohe Island was suffering from heavy labor service and priests and harsh exploitation by the colonial authorities, and the class contradictions were already very sharp. Daohui responded to the call and quickly gathered 3,000 people.
Baohe Island is a small island very close to Cebu Island, another military and political center in Luzon, with an area of about 4,000 square kilometers. The Spanish army soon came to fight, took over the ambush by the rebels, and fled to Zamboanga. After that, the Manila colonial authorities were helpless.
Daohui led the uprisingers to farm in the mountains and then quickly counterattacked the entire Baohe Island.
It has been more than 40 years since Da's bones have rotted, but Baohe Island is still independent. The strength of the big duck is so weak.
In this case, it is nonsense to say that Jose Basco Vargas doesn't care about Zhao Jiapo's threat at all.
Not to mention what would happen if the Zhao family's fleet blocked Batangas and blocked Manila Bay, just say that they fanned the flames everywhere to cause trouble for the Manila authorities, that would make Jose Basco Vargas have a headache.
There were shouts and killings at the Zhao family in Manila City, but these were all brainless people, middle-level or even lower-level people. How could they shout and killings at the Zhao family if they were truly brainy?
If someone doesn't want to open the cannon in Manila, it's God's blessing.
No one wants war for the top leaders led by Jose Basco Vargas.
How good is it for them to lie comfortably in the colony to make money? They will be completely ruined when they fight.
Batavia not long ago is a great example.
Although the military strength of the Big Ban Duck is far stronger than that of the Netherlands, it is useless.
Are you still counting on the Kingdom to send a large fleet to the distant East?
Or at this critical moment, draw precious warships to train them into a squadron to drive over?
Stop making trouble.
