Chapter 895: Chaotic situation
The Chinese fulfilled the treaty and sent the Hong Maofan from Malacca City a boat to leave.
However, it is not stated in the treaty that the ship fare is free!
No?
Hey, the Chinese people showed up in a hurry: "Do you also want to have a great funeral?"
The red hair fans had to pay, and after giving enough boat fare...each person could only bring ten Spanish silver dollars, and the rest of the belongings were left behind.
The Chinese were not too much, and sent them on board and sent them back to India.
From then on, the Red Hair Fans who had retired from the city of Malacca learned the four Chinese characters "Great Burial" and were deeply impressed!
The city of Malacca eventually fell into the hands of the Southeast Army.
The city of Malacca was captured, and the Strait of Malacca became a waterway controlled by the Southeastern Government.
Not only the city of Malacca, Macau has also returned to the hands of the Chinese.
The two Chinas are one, and all the territories occupied by Hong Maofan in all places have been recovered.
And it extends to foreign countries!
In Japan, the Edo Shogunate closed the Dutch business hall in Nagasaki at the request of their cheap son-in-law, Yan Changwu.
In Annan, the Monkey Kingdoms also closed the commercial hall of Hong Maofan to drive Hong Maofan out of the country!
The biggest benefit is Luzon!
The Chinese fleet approached the city, and the Spaniards caught it!
They don't have a fleet there, the defense is not good, and there are few people (if there are more people, it means that there are more people who divide the money).
The Philippines fell into the hands of the Chinese and fell under the jurisdiction of the Southeastern Prefecture.
In the end, the entire eastern ocean fell into the hands of the Chinese.
Yan Changwu thought deeply and didn't move Hong Maofan until Hong Maofan made trouble. After he took up the righteous name, he went down again and took all the territory.
The Chinese did not completely drive out the Spaniards and leased Manila to the Spaniards. The rent was one thousand silver coins a year, meaning that they would sign contracts every ten years.
In this way, the galleon trade route with the Spaniards was maintained, and the goods were transported from Luzon to the Americas, earning American silver, and the rest of European trade was interrupted.
The merchant ships that withdrew from various places gathered in Manila for trade. During the difficult years of war between the two sides, they tried their best to maintain the trade between the East and the West.
They loaded the cargo from Luzon and crossed the Pacific Ocean to Mexico, then sailed along the coast of South America, crossed the dangerous Cape Horn, returned to the coast of South America, and finally crossed the turbulent Atlantic Ocean and returned to Europe.
This road is far away. Compared with starting from Southeast Asia, passing through the Indian Ocean, sailing along the coast of Africa, and finally returning to the Africa line in Europe, the America line is longer and more dangerous.
They have to cross the two oceans, and it is not easy to supply supplies to the Americas. As long as the Africa line crosses the Indian Ocean, there are sambal merchants supplying supplies along the coast of Africa.
Some red hair fans earn this hard money honestly, but more red hair fans turn into privateers, plundering Southeast Asian Chinese!
With the support of the Dutch East India Company and the British East India Company in India, they launched an attack on Southeast Asia.
From the end of 1645 to the beginning of 1647, it was a difficult stage for the Chinese in Southeast Asia.
Fighting and not being able to fight, although the battleships of the Southeast Palace are powerful, they cannot catch up with the armed merchant ships of Hong Maofan, so they can only stay in the port and use them as a fort.
The number of cruise ships and frigates is still insufficient. Southeast Asia has such a vast sea area, and hundreds of warships are struggling to defend numerous ports and routes.
Hong Maofan runs when he sees a warship, and robs when he encounters a civilian ship. He adeptly comes to the game where the enemy advances and retreats, and the enemy retreats and enters.
Hong Maofan's armed merchant ships even raged in Guangdong and Taiwan!
Two more ships ran to Tuao, causing the coastal areas of Tuao to enter the first level of combat readiness, which was very tense.
You blocked the Strait of Malacca, and they came from the waters south of Sumatra.
It's easy to get by, just let the boat go!
You can't defend it at all. Even if you put a lot of warships in the south of Sumatra, it is impossible to block the "Roaring Westerly Belt". Manpower is poor, and nature is infinite!
Between 40 degrees and 60 degrees south latitude, roughly on the southern side of the southern hemisphere subtropical high, there is a special low pressure area surrounding the earth. The special feature of this low pressure area is that it always prevails with five or six intensity westerly winds throughout the year. , From time to time there are waves of several meters high. Especially for more than one week to ten days a month throughout the year, there are at least level 7 winds. This is the famous westerly zone in the southern hemisphere, nicknamed: the roaring westerly zone.
The roaring westerly zone was discovered and named by a navigator. In 1610, a Dutch navigator, Hendrik, was on a long voyage, passing through the sea at 40 degrees south latitude, and encountered a strong westerly wind, although strong winds and waves The ship was turbulent, but he discovered that using this strong west wind, he could travel east at high speed in the Indian Ocean and reach Batavia with a smooth wind.
Batavia, now the city of Rising Sun, the capital of the southeast capital!
Hong Maofan had no lack of courage, and sailed in the roaring westerly zone, but the Southeast Fleet could not intercept it.
It's difficult for you to sail, let alone fire a gun
The red hair fans who entered Southeast Asia would fight wherever they wanted. They attacked villages on the shore and robbed merchant ships. It was a carnival, but not a feast!
Friends come with good wine, jackals come with shotguns!
The Chinese soldiers and civilians in Southeast Asia were armed with muskets, and escorted and patrolled the land on solid walls~www.wuxiaspot.com~. They were guarded strictly and fought tit-for-tat against Hong Maofan. As time went on, Hong Maofan could not get anything. The lack of supplies is showing signs of decline.
But if you don't completely remove the ramson in a day, you can't relax.
Among them, Hong Xi, the commander of the Southeast Fleet, is the most bitter. As the supreme commander of the fleet, he must destroy the Hong Maofan in the Southeast Asian waters.
He commanded the siege of the city of Malacca on the one side, and tried his best on the other side, trying his best to deal with the Hong Maofan.
The fleet strengthened patrols;
Organize armed escorts for merchant ships;
Recruit retired veterans and arm the merchant ships;
The merchant ships are equipped with cannons and disguised to lure the red hairs into robbery;
...
It was still impossible to guard against, and even when someone appeared in Malacca City, there was a red-haired snarling attacking the city of Rising Sun. He was punished and slashed because of the fact that the commander's position was not easy to sit in.
Upon inquiring, the former commander Chen De was briskly fishing and hunting in the manor, not knowing how happy he was!
Compared with others, Hong Xiguan was young and his hair was a little bit grayer.
The commander of the Second Fleet, Cheng Yu, who he sent to deal with Hong Maofan, was a "half man" with blind eyes and a lame hand. He did nothing, and caused the Chinese people to ridicule: "Oh, why can't we catch up with Hong Maofan." Mao Fan, that's because the commander is a lame and can't run fast!"
It is certainly not right to insult people, but the dilemma of the Southeast Fleet and even the Chinese are exposed.
Hong Maofan's life is difficult, and the life of the Chinese is also difficult.
In the beginning, there were no days without war, and people often died. Reports of attacks were reported to the city of Rising Sun every day.
When winter finally passed and spring returned to the earth, when everyone couldn't stand it, the leader returned from mainland China!
