He Nanyang said quickly: "His Excellency Alfonso's family is an old noble. Their family has served the Kingdom of Spain's navy for hundreds of years. It can be said that he is a hereditary naval officer. He is an excellent naval general and navigator. Even my A lot of knowledge was imparted by His Excellency Alfonso!¡±
It can be said that He Nanyang's character is still very good. At this time, he did not add insult to injury to his old boss, but instead said a lot of good things to him!
"Dear Jose! You don't need to plead for me. As the kingdom's naval general, I have lost all my honor. Now I would rather die on the sea than accept the enemy's gift!" Even though Commander Alfonso was Even after being beaten, he still retains the pride of a noble like a cock!
"He is really a stubborn guy, but you will soon know that our Ming Dynasty has an old saying: You can't live, you can't die!" Before He Nanyang could smooth things over, Zhang Quanwu sneered and gave Commander Alfonso a kick!
"Lock this guy up, sir, just don't let him die!" Zhang Quanwu then said to the soldiers guarding Commander Alfonso!
"Yes!" the soldier responded and dragged Commander Alfonso away like a dead dog!
During this period, He Nanyang wanted to say something, but when he thought of Commander Alfonso's temper, he had no choice but to say something back!
He Nanyang received preferential treatment and naturally knew what to do next, so with the help of Zhang Quanwu, he worked hard to learn Chinese and Chinese characters, and carefully translated the charts!
At the same time, in order to realize his value, he told Han Siwen the location of Kalimantan Island, and within three days he led Han Siwen's fleet to find Kalimantan Island!
As a result, Han Siwen's nose was almost crooked. It turned out that the Kalimantan Island in the mouth of He Nanyang was the Bo Ni Kingdom of Porcement to Daming!
The dignified Ming Navy general lost his way and almost starved his fleet to death within the territorial waters declared by the Ming Dynasty. However, he was only three days away from a vassal country that could provide sufficient supplies!
This embarrassing thing not only made Han Siwen feel extremely ashamed, but also strengthened his determination to learn from the European maritime powers. For this reason, he also wrote a memorial to express the importance of this matter!
After resting for three days in the Boni Kingdom and replenishing enough supplies, Han Siwen took the fleet on the road again, but this time, Han Siwen's fleet brought with him a delegation from the Boni Kingdom to pay tribute to the Ming Dynasty!
After the Ming Dynasty banned the sea and stopped the tribute trade, the Balni Kingdom basically cut off its contact with the Ming Dynasty. In addition, the Europeans continued to invade and occupy Nanyang, and the Balni Kingdom would not go to the Ming Dynasty to pay tribute!
This time, the Ming fleet appeared in the Balni Kingdom, which shocked the entire Balni Kingdom. In addition, the Ming fleet actually brought captured Westerners, which made the entire Balni Kingdom feel awe of the Ming Dynasty!
It is precisely because of this that the Sultan of Balni State sent six large ships loaded with ivory, rhinoceros horns, gems, and spices to pay tribute to the Ming Dynasty!
Later generations often said that the tribute trade of the Ming Dynasty was a loss of money, but these people did not think about it. Although the attacks on the national attacks are not worth the local, they are all good things in Daming!
Not to mention that the ivory, rhinoceros horns, gems, and spices from Southeast Asia were all extremely valuable in the Ming Dynasty. Even Korean ginseng, mink skins, lacquerware, and Japanese knives from Korea and Japan were three to five times as expensive in the Ming Dynasty!
Although the Ming Dynasty¡¯s return gifts to these vassal countries were silk, porcelain, and tea, these things were not common in the Ming Dynasty. Using these things in exchange for rare treasures cannot be said to be a loss-making transaction!
The reason why civil servants and civilians criticized the tribute trade a lot is because the tribute trade affected the foreign trade of maritime merchants and caused them to make less money!
Although Bo Ni State organized a large mission to go to the Ming Dynasty this time without permission from the Ming Dynasty court, Han Siwen felt that with the character of the emperor in Beijing, he would not refuse such tribute!
However, Han Siwen was not a reckless man. He still sent the "Sea Tiger" back to Manila as quickly as possible to report to Hong Chengchou that the Bo Ni Kingdom sent a mission to pay tribute. As for what Hong Chengchou wanted to do, Han Siwen didn't care!
After leaving Bo Ni, Han Siwen¡¯s fleet sailed for more than twenty days and finally returned to Manila!
After receiving the news, Hong Chengchou and Wang Hua all ran to Manila Port to greet him!
Seeing Han Siwen walking on the battleship, Wang Hua immediately ran over and asked eagerly: "Did you really find it?"
Although the "Sea Tiger" had brought back the news of finding Nanhuazhou Island when it returned, Wang Hua still wanted to get confirmation from Han Siwen!
Han Siwen nodded happily and said: "I found it. Your Majesty is right. There is really a big island in the South China Sea, and the island is very big. I'm afraid it's not much smaller than our Ming Dynasty!"
"Great!" Wang Hua rubbed his hands in excitement and said nervously: "This is great, as long as I send this news back, you will at least get a uncle, and our Nanjing fleet will also follow suit! "
Hong Chengchou was listening to the conversation between Han Siwen and Wang Hua. He was also surprised, but when he looked at Han Siwen, there was a hidden look in his eyes!
Although it is a great achievement to discover an island comparable to the Ming Dynasty, it is also a disaster. If someone runs over and sets up his own business, it will not be a good thing for the Ming Dynasty!
However, Hong Chengchou would not show anything in front of Han Siwen. After seeing him finish talking to Wang Hua, Hong Chengchou clasped his fists with a smile on his face and said: "Commander Han not only found Nanhuazhou this time, but also brought the West-Dutch Combined Fleet to The commander has been captured, it can be said to be a double blessing, I am afraid that this time I will really seal my wife Yinzi!"
Han Siwen didn¡¯t have a good impression of Hong Chengchou. The keen insight he cultivated on the battlefield made Han Siwen always feel that Hong Chengchou was too dangerous, so he rarely interacted with Hong Chengchou!
But as the saying goes, don¡¯t hit anyone with a smiling face. Since people came to congratulate them, Han Siwen would not seriously reject them thousands of miles away. So Han Siwen also smiled and clasped his fists and said: "Governor Hong¡¯s words are serious. I only found Nan according to His Majesty¡¯s instructions." Huazhou, as for the commander of the combined fleet, he covered his head and turned himself into a trap, so he really doesn¡¯t deserve the credit!¡±
Hong Chengchou smiled and said: "Commander Han is really humble, he is really a role model for our generation!"
Han Siwen waved his hands and said: "I am just a rough man, how can I know what humility is? It's just that when your Majesty trained us people, he often taught some principles of how to behave in the world. I only learned three or four points. I am really ashamed of myself." Your Majesty¡¯s cultivation!¡±
Hong Chengchou's expression changed slightly, and then he said with a smile: "His Majesty's ability is astonishing to heaven and earth. It's a blessing that Commander Han can learn from it three to four points. By the way, the former Japanese and Korean commanders sent people back to say that the Balni Kingdom wants to send a mission to pay tribute. , I have already reported this matter to the imperial court, and as soon as the official document is returned from Beijing, it will be decided whether the Balni delegation can enter Beijing!"
Han Siwen nodded and said: "That's right. If the imperial court allows the Balni delegation to enter Beijing, our Nanjing fleet will escort it, and we will go to Beijing to report the good news to His Majesty!"
Hong Chengchou bowed his hands to Han Siwen and Wang Hua again and said with a smile: "In that case, I will go to receive the envoys from the Bo Ni Kingdom first. Farewell!"
Han Siwen and Wang Hua returned the greeting at the same time: "It's easy, Governor Hong!"
Hong Chengchou smiled politely, turned around and left. Han Siwen and Wang Hua glanced at each other, and they understood each other's thoughts!
