Before the eunuch finished speaking, Xu Shimin stood up and said sharply: "This is insulting Ceylon. If Daming wants to fight, we will give him a war! It's like driving the Tamils ​​into the sea. Drive the Daming people away." Ceylon!"

Everyone in Srijaya was dumbfounded, they looked at Xu Shimin dumbfounded, can Daming and Tamil be compared?

Sri Jaya hurriedly comforted him: "Do we have an era calendar? Da Ming asked us to carry out the year name, so he had to give us the calendar used by Da Ming. You forgot that after your grandfather was enshrined, Da Ming gave us the calendar. Not like a beast."

Sri Jaya had to persuade, each of which sounded excessive, but many of the terms, in fact, Ceylon had no way to object.

For example, the matter of Chen Lunpo, in order to win over Chen Shouyan, has long been the private land of the Chen family, and Ceylon has no control or control. If there is no armament sold by the Ming merchants, they will not even be able to defeat the Tamils.

Fight whatever you want. With Ceylon's strength, even Chen Lunpo and Chen Shouyan's own nursing home, Ceylon can't beat it. If you go head-to-head with the Daming Navy, it's not that your brain is trapped by the door. You can make such a decision Come?

Sri Jaya really used all his efforts to stabilize Xu Shimin, and did not complete the declaration of war against Ming Dynasty. If war is declared, Ceylon will be declared subjugated tomorrow.

Xu Shimin said angrily: "They dare to ignore my beauty! It's just rude!"

Chapter 953 Ancient Warm Wine Slays Hua Xiong

Xu Shimin has a kind of confidence in her beauty, and this confidence even gave her a slight illusion that she is the chosen one in the Western Sapphire Land, and her beauty has brought her many benefits, but now, Daming would rather I want the thirteen established treaties, but I don't want her either.

In Xu Shimin's view, this is a kind of humiliation.

But Liu Yongcheng and Tang Xing really simply felt that Xu Shimin could not pass the initial examination of the Ministry of Rites.

Hu Wei, a great flatterer who has led the Ministry of Rites for nearly 50 years, has already formed a path dependence. The selection of beautiful women for His Majesty is one in a million, but anyone with a little flaw will be screened out, even if In this way, the two nobles who have entered the palace so far are still nobles, and His Majesty still doesn't take them very seriously.

Tang Xing and Liu Yongcheng have been carefully discussing the various details of the Thirteen Articles, which parts can be backed down, and which parts are determined not to give up.

Holding the detailed rules in his hand, Tang Xing said with a bit of complaint: "The first six are the requirements of my Daming to Ceylon, and the last seven are the obligations of Daming to Ceylon. Why should there be one less right than the obligation?! At least It should be equal!"

"First, the eradication of pirates around Ceylon is beneficial to the trade of Ming merchants, and at the same time ensures the basic security of the people of Ceylon. The Ming Navy has been doing this."

"Second, set up a school, set up a university hall in Chen Lunpo, Chen Lunpo Han people are given priority in enrolling, and Ceylonians should have the right to enroll. As for our Ming Dynasty, these Minggongs are full of desire to promote culture and education, and they will never forget this in everything they do. Cha, when will they learn to take advantage of others? When will the old thinking of Huaiyuan people and gentle princes be changed?"

"Impressed!"

"Da Ming's voyages to the west are here to rob! They are not here to show their saintliness and protect the world!"

"Third, teach the Ming Dynasty calendar, preventive hygiene and simple recipes, and teach the Miao people to cultivate at four o'clock and 24 solar terms. Fourth, set up an astronomical observatory to observe Western hydrology. Fifth, set up a Huimin Pharmacy Bureau to improve the medical environment in Ceylon [-]. When Ceylon was invaded by invaders, the Daming Navy Assistant repelled the bandits. [-]. Set up customs duties and taxes to manage the import and export trade of Ceylon."

Tang Xing said that this was a headache. Daming went south to the Western Seas to squeeze the productivity of overseas foreigners, to squeeze the products of Nanyang and Western Oceans, but His Majesty actually approved this clause.

However, Liu Yongcheng disagreed and said: "It is Chen Shouyan who does bad things, and it is the imperial court who do good things. After all, in terms of moral corruption, the imperial court has no advantage at all compared with the powerful and powerful. Since they are not good at it, there is no need to do useless work." , the matter of stealing money is bound to be done by the right, anyway, if you take it back, you have to pay taxes."

"As far as the tax of six per cent on silver is paid, I think the court is doing too much if you want to be arrogant. The court's navy masters don't want money, right? There's nothing to worry about collecting taxes. They try to avoid high taxes by changing the law. At that time, he asked Master Wang to uphold justice with a big face, and the court can't compare with this kind of face alone."

"What we have to guard against is the wishful thinking of the State of Ceylon."

Today, the bureau has prepared coconut juice for Tang Xing and Liu Yongcheng. Hearing what Liu Yongcheng said, he agreed with him and said, "The Queen of Ceylon is not as good-looking as Hino Tomiko. How dare you want to climb your majesty's dragon bed?" The queen is ugly, but she is beautiful."

Tang Xing took a sip of coconut juice and said with disbelief on his face: "No way, would Ceylon fight with the Daming Navy over such a thing? Could it be that the Black Dragon Cannon of my Haining is just a decoration? Don't they fear our toughness?" Is it a sharp boat? I was scared when I saw it!"

Jin Shenju looked at her husband obsessively. Her husband has been in the kingdom of heaven for a long time, and she always feels that things should follow certain rules. Jin Shenju has been an imperial order for more than ten years, and has extremely rich political experience. But I know that many things are actually unreasonable, and may be just for the personal anger of the superior.

"That's not sure, what if?" She is not very worried about participating in the game today. She is not worried because Daming has absolute violence in the West. The current military equipment and sergeants of the Daming Navy are far better than those in the Yongle period. Daming Navy.

Liu Yongcheng thought about it and said again and again: "The marquis of the pier is a scout, and the ashigaru is on the outermost perimeter to guard. The Daming Navy does not disarm at night, so we cannot take it lightly. The vast ocean cannot swallow our ships, and we cannot let the gang of Ceylon burn us down. A ship, and if Ceylon will not accept our friendship, let them accept wrath."

"I'll leave it to you on the shore, and I'm going back to the boat."

After Liu Yongcheng finished speaking, he stood up. Tang Xing and Jin Canju, the couple, didn't know how to restrain themselves in front of him, the eunuch. They all got off the boat, and if something happened on board, someone had to command, make decisions, and take responsibility.

As soon as Liu Yongcheng left, even the bones of the current bureau softened a little, but she didn't bother, because the first night was the most dangerous time, and since the order of the Ming Army was issued, Tang Xing couldn't Remove the armor, you can't rub it on the Mingguang armor today, it is the Mingguang armor bestowed by the Ming emperor, with complex and exquisite lines.

A shower that came and went quickly sprinkled on the beach full of coconut trees, and the bright moonlight passed through the clouds of light smoke, like a layer of tulle spread on the ground, and the sea breeze brought The unique freshness and fishy smell after the rain blew Tang Xing's pocket. Tang Xing has been sitting upright in this thousand-foot bamboo house, closing his eyes and resting his mind.

Suddenly, arrows and whistles sounded in the silent night, fireworks exploded in the sky, and bursts of gongs, drums and horns sounded in the barracks.

Tang Xing slowly opened his eyes, looking at Jin Shenju's phoenix eyes with spring water, he knew that she was probably already muddy, he stood up, buckled his pockets, and said in a muffled voice: "Wait here for a while , Grandpa will go and come back."

Today's bureau tightened Tang Xing's belt, pursed his lips and said: "Master, you must come back alive! If you don't come back, I, a temptress, will be loved by others. I belong to my master. I just want to Grandpa hurts."

In war, people will definitely die.

This bureau is really afraid that all her reliance will not come back. If Tang Xing can't come back, then she will just drink a bowl of poisoned wine and chase Tang Xing away. She is a person who crawled out of the abyss of despair. Let her enter the bottomless abyss again, she will only choose death.

Tang Xing walked out of the attic of the House of Thousand Feet, and shouted loudly: "Ti Qi followed me to raid the palace!"

"The sun, the moon, the mountains and the rivers will always be here, and the great Ming will be forever! Your majesty is mighty!"

"Your Majesty is mighty!"

"Your Majesty is mighty!"

"Your Majesty is mighty!"

A group of Tiqi got on their horses and followed Tang Xing in the moonlight.

With a screaming sound, the arrow pierced the sky and pierced into the trees, penetrating three points into the wood. The flying sawdust was the strength of the arrow, and more arrows landed on the flesh and blood of the Ceylon people.

At the mountain pass where they stayed, the Ceylons were howling and charging. They had no armor, not even decent leather armor, and they didn't even have bows and arrows.

The making of bows, the maintenance of bowstrings, and the design of arrow feathers are not the military capabilities of Ceylon. Even some of the smaller daimyos in Japan cannot twist bowstrings.

The Japanese National Association sent by Katsumoto Hosokawa joined the army and began to fight against the enemy, giving the Ming army time to set up the formation correctly, but it took less than half a stick of incense to stop the ashigaru. Gao Damao began to retreat, and left the battlefield in an orderly manner. Under the cover of arrows, he completely separated from the Ceylons.

These ashigaru have always been mobs in Japan, and in the hands of Hosokawa Katsumoto, they are cannon fodder for death. In the hands of Jin Canju, these ashigaru can even retreat in an orderly manner after the battle. Xing really couldn't stand it anymore, so he trained them well.

To serve as a Congjun Army for the Ming Army, you must also look like a Congjun Army!

Fighting is just rushing forward, not even the wolves on the grassland.

Seeing Ashgaru retreating, the Ceylon people's morale immediately rose, and they rushed forward with shouts, but what greeted them was a line array of big fire guns.

Gunpowder smoke continued to rise on the battlefield, and human lives slowly dissipated under the whistling lead.

The front army of the Ceylons collapsed, and the rear army did not know the situation, which led to congestion, but the line array firecrackers of the Ming Dynasty were still sounding in an orderly and fast manner.

At this time, Tang Xing had already rushed outside the palace of Ceylon with three hundred Tiqi, and when Xu Shimin was still secretly pleased about his sneak attack, the Ming army had already lined up outside the palace.

A loud arrow soared into the sky again, and the black dragon cannon on the Haining ship slowly turned, aiming at the gate of the royal palace halfway up the mountain. Amidst the thundering roar, the flowering bullet drew a perfect arc in the air and landed on the ground. The gate of the palace pierced through the entire gate, smashed on the brick and stone square in front of the palace, and burst open.

Tang Xing rode his horse forward, and the flag-carrying tooth flag soldiers followed closely behind, carrying the big red Tang character flag.

A Ceylon man suddenly jumped from a high place, raised the scimitar in his hand, and slashed at Tang Xing who was charging forward.

Tang Xing picked up his sickle spear and poked it into the heart of the Ceylon man, pulled the spear back to neutralize the force, and hung the Ceylon man's body on the brick by the way. Preventing the speed of the Tiqis from rushing into the palace did not even affect Tang Xing's riding posture. He put the hook and sickle back into the holster, pulled out the long and short guns, and fired at the Ceylons who rushed up to stop them.

After knocking out the lead with a long blunderbuss and two pistols, Tang Xing drew out the hook and sickle gun again, and with the strength of the horse's charge, he swept across and knocked a Ceylon man to the ground with a knife. The scimitar that had been broken into two pieces, Tang Xing moved his neck and sneered: "Battered copper and rotten iron."

I don't know if this is mocking Ceylon's weapons, or mocking Ceylon's guards, maybe both.

A one-sided killing begins.

It cannot be blamed that the people of Ceylon are not smart enough. Chen Lunpo is the richest place in Ceylon, and there are many merchants coming and going. This is where the vast majority of Ceylon’s wealth is gathered. Therefore, the Lion Kingdom has set its capital here and built a palace close to the coast. , is to deal with pirates in the first place.

Not to mention Ceylon, even the whole of the West doesn't think there is any problem with this, because there has never been a concept of naval guns like the Black Dragon Cannon in the conflict here.

The times have changed.

It can't be blamed that the Ceylons are not brave enough. Facing the musket formation, the Ceylons charged twice, but the casualties were too high and the battle line collapsed. After the artillery roared, there were still guards jumping down from high places to kill Tang Xing. There were still guards trying to stop the Ming army from charging.

If you want to blame, you can only blame the queen of Ceylon, because of some strange thoughts, she gave the order to attack the Ming army.

"Boom!" Tang Xing kicked open the door of the royal palace, pulled out the Xiuchun knife from his waist, and put it on the neck of the frightened Xu Shimin.

Xu Shimin planned to run away when the bomb exploded, but her clothes were too cumbersome and bloated.

"I am Tang Xing, Commander of the Daming Jinyiwei, Commander of the Fleet of the Ming Dynasty's Southward Expedition to the West, and I announce that you have been captured, Queen Xu Shimin of Ceylon."

Tang Xing learned this kind of tactics from Zheng He's beheading action with 2000 men against [-] enemies in Ceylon. Tang Xing had seen how the beheading action should be carried out. He had seen Yuan Bin perform a similar beheading action. Knowing that this kind of tactics is feasible under the absolute superiority of military equipment, Yuan Bin is really too brave, and Tang Xing couldn't show it before.

"Don't kill me! Don't kill me! I can give you whatever you want!" Xu Shimin was so frightened that he peed his pants and didn't dare to move. Tie Xu Shimin tightly so that there will be no dead limbs caused by poor blood flow, and then stuff Xu Shimin's socks into her mouth.

It was just too loud.

Xu Shimin didn't know Chinese, and there was a lot of babbling, and Tang Xing's ears were just noisy. Who would bring a general interpreter if it's okay to fight?

Today, Shenju didn't wait at the Qianjiao Bamboo House all the time. After the Ceylons where they were staying were defeated, she and two Tiqi Qianhu led people to rush to the palace for help.

By the time Jin Canju arrived at the palace, Tang Xing had already finished the battle, and the Tiqimen had already started to clean up the entire palace, leaving no one behind. Even the secret passages of the palace's bedroom had been turned upside down.

"Master!" Jin Canju got off his horse and rushed over. Like an octopus, he hugged Tang Xing tightly. Tang Xing hadn't taken off his armor but took off his pocket. Life hurts, and I won't let go of the game today, just hug it so hard.

"Come down, it's dirty to death, it's full of blood." Tang Xing coaxed Jin Shenju, who was clearly a temptress, after following him, she became more and more like a little girl, stalking fiercely.

"I just like you like this." Jin Shenju looked around and whispered in Tang Xing's ear timidly: "Master, I haven't done it yet."

"What haven't you done yet?" Tang Xing was a little confused, and then suddenly realized that his face was a little hot. The temptress was indeed a temptress, and he made a strong man like Tang Xing shy.

"Not ashamed!" Tang Xing whispered helplessly.

"Don't be ashamed, the concubine is the temptress of the master." The current member of the bureau didn't take it seriously at all, and continued to whisper: "In ancient times, Guan Yu warmed wine and killed Hua Xiong, and now Master Tang Rundao captured the chieftain."

Tang Xing looked at Liu Yongcheng who walked in and said, "Old Liu, you can deal with the follow-up, I have something to do."

"What's the matter?" Liu Yongcheng also said to discuss how to deal with the game after the game, and saw Tang Xing going to the dormitory with Jin Shenju in his arms.

Liu Yongcheng's complexion changed suddenly, and he shouted loudly: "Dogs and men! One day, sooner or later, you will be struck by lightning! I, Liu Yongcheng, really had a bad luck to meet you!"

"Tang Xing, you really deserve to die!"

Tang Xing is very free, and his freedom is the freedom of living up to the emperor's order.

Chapter 954 I don't believe it, unless you have a fight

The next morning was sunny, and the battlefield had been completely cleaned up. Liu Yongcheng stayed up all night and kept tidying up the battlefield, especially counting the diehards who had escaped to prevent them from becoming pirates after escaping. Da Ming had to clean up again.

The Lion Kingdom was destroyed overnight.

Tang Xing walked out of the bedroom of the Kingdom of Ceylon proudly, shook off his clothes, and behind him was the extremely lazy Jin Shenju, one who was so free that only the emperor's order could restrain him, and one who crawled out of hell and never cared about the eyes of others. A pair of dogs and men.

"Liu Dadang, Liu Dadang." Tang Xing came to the main hall of the palace, looked at the glittering gems on the dome, thought about buckling them back as gifts for Li Binyan, and said with a smile: "This place is worthy of being the first place in the Western world. sapphire."

Liu Yongcheng flicked his sleeves, and said extremely annoyed: "Don't talk to our family! Just after the war, the aftermath will be handed over to our family, and you can go and have fun by yourself? And you, participating in the game today, you are also the Imperial Order of the Japanese Kingdom , once in charge of the imperial order of 900 million people, can you be a little bit polite and shameless?"

"Even if you are in a hurry? Can't wait?"

Tang Xing put his hands behind his back and whistled. Looking at the bone china on the table, his eyes lit up. After looking at it for a long time, he finally shook his head and said, "You don't understand."

"I'm really in a hurry." Jin Shenju said with a smile, his eyes almost melted when he looked at Tang Xing.

"Disgusting!" Liu Yongcheng pulled out his waist knife. He was so angry that he glared at Tang Xing and said, "Come on! Don't die today! Whoever loves you is the grandson!"

After Tang Xing picked up another piece of porcelain, he looked at it with a frown. He handed the piece of porcelain to Jinshenju, who was as muscular as fat, then turned his head to Liu Yongcheng and said with a smile, "Focus on family and country and focus on local people, and dare to fight privately." If one is timid in public wars, the country will perish; if the people are brave in public wars, but timid in private battles, the country will be governed.”

"I showed my bravery in the public battle yesterday, but today, Liu Dadang showed my bravery in the private fight. If Liu Dadang insists on killing me, then come on. In the private fight, I am indeed a coward." .”

"Come on! Come on!"

Liu Yongcheng inserted his waist knife back into the scabbard and played tricks with Tang Xing. It was indeed Liu Yongcheng's own mistake. The guy in front of him had a really bad mouth.

"Let's get down to business." Liu Yongcheng was a little helpless. When getting along with Tang Xing, he had to be good at self-regulation, otherwise he would be pissed off. He is too old to find anger by himself.

Tang Xing took out the chart and pointed to the position of Ceylon and said: "As far as the map is concerned, this place is equivalent to a crossroads on the ocean. We can go to India in the north, the old port in the east, and Kanjuti and Hughes in the west. Lumos, according to the needle map left by the eunuch Sanbao, he can even go directly to Man Basa, which is a battleground on the sea."

"So, let the king of the Lion Kingdom be sent to Daming. As for whether he should live or die, or keep him in Tianjin Wei, it's up to the court's Minggongs to decide, but we must firmly grasp this crossroads."

"Since you have eaten it, there is absolutely no reason to spit it out again."

Liu Yongcheng nodded and said: "I think so too, so there is no need to give the five chapters of clothes given to the King of Ceylon. It is a good choice to attribute this place to the Old Port Propaganda Department. According to the old rules, we can Canonize Chen Shouyan directly as Governor Chen Lunpo."

"Chen Lunpo, Gu Lunpo, and Li Lunpo are Jiayuguan in the Daming Sea. If you guard here, the Daming Sea will be safe. If you can't hold it, the Daming Sea will not be peaceful for a while."

Tang Xing thought about it seriously and said: "Chen Shouyan, a wealthy overseas family, is even worse than a dog. A dog throws a bone at it and even barks twice to please it. What do they know? So they must be restrained. Difficult, just use the method of the court to check and balance, and give that Sri Jaya a vice-governor."

"As for the Sinhalese and Tamils, we don't need to deliberately target them. We just need more and more merchant ships in Ming Dynasty. Sooner or later, these sailors will change the species here."

A method of royalization called occupying the palace is a method of royalization that is rarely mentioned, and there are not many local natives.

The Emperor Ming made a rule that only eunuchs can be used. At least the slaves sent to Daming are eunuchs. There are a large number of eunuchs in the plantations in Southeast Asia and the West, and living in the plantations is very important for the natives. , is an extremely luxurious and enjoyable life.

And the people of Ming Dynasty are tall and powerful, and they have their own reproductive advantages. Coupled with the self-castration of these indigenous people, in only 50 years, there will be only Han people left here.

This kind of method is extremely gentle and subtle, even full of humanism, and everyone has the right to choose their own life.

The only problem with this method is that Daming must always be strong.

"Then call Chen Shouyan and Sri Jaya and discuss the matter with them." Liu Yongcheng agrees with Tang Xing's point of view, there must be checks and balances, but they should not be too strong, at least not a complete regime. A benefit is a detriment.

Tang Xing pulled his hand and pointed at Man Basa and said: "Liu Dadang, you just want to make me angry with you, and I'm afraid I won't see you again. I will set off in a few days and lead twelve battleships to Man Basa. From Man Basa to the south, and then to the west."

"I'm going to the sky to see."

Liu Yongcheng looked at Tang Xing and said solemnly: "Commander Tang, although you are annoying, this is really risky. We have never been there, and His Majesty has not ordered you to take risks. In fact, there is no need to go to the sky."
