The Ming Dynasty has just been exiled and the Luzon system has awakened.

Shopkeeper Wang didn't know how he walked out of the bank, but the heavy silver box he carried when he entered had now become extremely light.

He couldn't help but open the silver box before he took a few steps. The dirty broken silver inside had turned into a pile of banknotes of various denominations and a few shining silver dollars.

Looking at these new coins, shopkeeper Wang was in trouble.

Both banknotes and silver dollars are so beautiful!It was so beautiful that he no longer wanted to spend the money.

Now he completely believes what the front desk boy of the cloth factory said before. Your Majesty is really issuing new coins at a loss!

And the money lost is far more than the half-percent handling fee.

How much does it cost to use paper and paint for the workmanship of this new coin!

Your Majesty, he is really good to his subjects!

"No! Go back and exchange all the silver! Maybe your Majesty will have to increase the exchange ratio in a few days."

Shopkeeper Wang made a decision immediately. Although it seemed a bit sorry for His Majesty, His Majesty didn't say anything, and he was also supporting His Majesty's new currency issuance!

With the decision made, shopkeeper Wang ran home without looking back. He didn't even have time to settle the payment for the goods from the cloth factory, which made the salesman wait.

From the second day after the discovery of the new currency, the exchange volume of dragon coins in various bank business halls increased sharply, and continued to increase in the following days.

Because ordinary people have discovered that many store owners give priority to dragon coins when collecting money. If the previous silver coins are used, the price of the goods will rise slightly.

No one wants to spend extra money, so many people go to banks to exchange dragon coins.

Dragon coins can circulate freely, and their priority is higher than the previous silver coins. In addition, they are exquisitely made, light and easy to carry.

People's acceptance of dragon coins was much faster than expected.

The emperor's dizzy voice, which was previously rumored among the people, also turned into the sound of His Majesty's sage.

……

In Quzhou Prefecture, it has been several days since the last time the green camp had a food fight. The voices of discussion in the green camp seemed to be much quieter. However, whenever the soldiers saw that the food delivered was still sweet potatoes, the soldiers' eyes changed. It seems more gloomy. (I made a mistake earlier. It was Quzhou Prefecture, not Hengzhou Prefecture. The map was too small and I misread it. It has been corrected.)

On the morning of the sixth day of the lunar month, a group of Qingqi rushed into the capital of Quzhou.

"General! Report from the front line. Ming troops have appeared in the direction of Xintang and Songyang. The Ming troops have about 5 soldiers and are well-equipped. The defenders in the two places are weak and have been lost one after another!"

"In addition, the green camp defenders in Jiangshan and Suichang are requesting reinforcements. I hope the general will send more reinforcements."

The messenger knelt down to report.

"Why are these Ming bandits in such a hurry? Can't they pass this period?"

Bo Ji was surprised and said that he originally thought that the Ming army would attack after the Lantern Festival, but he did not expect that the attack would come so quickly.

But surprise is surprise, but there is not much anxiety on his face.

Although two small cities were lost, there were not many troops stationed in these two small cities. It was normal for them to be captured by the Ming army, and he had no losses.

Today, there are more than 1 Eight Banner elites and [-] Green Camp troops in the capital city of Quzhou.

As long as we still have this superior force in our hands, there is nothing to panic about.

Moreover, the Ming army only had [-] troops, while he had an army of [-] troops. Although they were a little inferior in terms of firearms, he had just received news from the capital.

The emperor has purchased a large number of advanced firearms from those red-haired people, and is currently heading south by water with two firearms battalions, and will arrive in Quzhou soon.

As long as the Ming army is delayed for a few days and the firearms and firearms battalions arrive, a mere [-] Ming army can be easily destroyed.

As for the Green Camp in Jiangshan and Suichang?

"Send an order to the Jiangshan and Suichang defenders to tell them that reinforcements are on the way. They must defend the city until the reinforcements arrive. Anyone who retreats without orders will be killed!"

Bo Ji ordered in a deep voice.

Of course, although he said so, the actual situation is that he has no plans to send any of the 10 troops in Quzhou Fucheng.

And it happened that the troops stationed in Jiangshan and Suichang were the Jiangxi Green Camp that caused trouble that day.

Offended General Ben and want reinforcements?

Just let them die to delay the Ming army.

The reinforcements Bo Ji promised to Jiangshan and Suichang would never arrive, but the reinforcements sent by Nanxi were already halfway there.

Off the coast of Hangzhou Bay, a fleet flying the flag of the Dutch East India Company is anchored on the sea. This fleet consists of 4 armed merchant ships and 10 small bird ships.

Carrying on it were the first batch of 15000 Beggar's Edition Mini rifles and more than 2500 officers and soldiers of the Zhili Han army flag firearms purchased from the Dutch.

Firearms Battalion Commander Shi Tao stood on the armed merchant ship that had been renamed the Mighty General, pacing impatiently from side to side.

"Teacher, you should be patient and calm. Didn't our guide say that the tide is coming soon?"

Major Sinclair said with a smile on his face.

Shi Tao ignored the Dutchman but turned to look at the guide and asked:

"Are you sure that the big ship can enter the Qiantang River directly when the tide is high? If something goes wrong, your head will have to move!"

"Don't worry, sir. I have lived on the banks of the Qiantang River since I was a child and am very familiar with the conditions in this water area. When the tide rises, the depth of the mouth of the sea can reach four or five meters. There is no problem in passing a large ship." Photographed by the guide He promised, holding his chest.

"The tide is rising!"

"The tide is coming!"

As soon as the guide made his promise, an exclamation came from the watchtower, and on the sea in the distance, white wave lines were seen rushing towards the estuary.

"Weight anchor, hoist sail!" shouted the Dutch captain.

Just when everyone was about to take action, the Dutch soldiers on the watchtower shouted again.

"Sir! There is a fleet coming from the south!"

Hearing the sound, Major Sinclair put away his smile.

Although these ships have been sold to the Manzi Emperor, until the Qing navy sailors are completely familiar with the ship, everything on the ship will still be dominated by the Dutch, so he does not want any problems to arise now.

He held the binoculars to the side of the ship. Due to the distance between the two sides, he could not clearly see the flags hanging on the ships, but the size of the fleet already gave him a bad feeling.

Then he saw several huge figures in the fleet.

"Ming Army! It's Ming Army!"

Sinclair's face changed wildly, and he immediately dropped the telescope and shouted loudly.

Even though he did not see the Ming Dynasty Dragon Flag, he immediately judged that the fleet in the distance was the Ming Army!Because he knew that only the Ming army had battleships in the entire eastern waters! (Sinclair did not know that the Spanish sent two battleships to "conquer" the Ming Dynasty)

In an instant, the entire fleet began to panic, and the urgent alarm bells rang non-stop.
