”Good news, what good news! "
Zhang Xian grabs Yue Yun's arm excitedly. His life in Yizhou is as plain as water. A little wave is enough for him to look forward to.
"It is said that the Department of minerals attaches great importance to the mineral resources in Yizhou and will come to explore soon. If it finds the mineral resources, it will soon transport a group of people from Japan to mine."
"Mine? That's really good news. " Zhang Xian paced back and forth happily. In his opinion, the construction of the mine includes many ancillary projects, the most important of which is the road.
If the imperial court wants to open mines in Yizhou, it must build roads here. If roads are built, cement plants and brick factories will also be built. Then Yizhou will be really busy.
"Do you know what mines the minerals department is going to mine? "Zhang Xian asked again.
After thinking for a while, he said: "it's no secret in Qingzhou, and the information here is really not well-informed. The mineral Department said that the minerals in Yizhou are mainly coal, sulfur, gold and copper. It's said that coal is mainly in the north, and the gold and copper are mainly in the northeast, east of the central mountains to the coast. But the people of the mineral Department said that the sulfur in these minerals is particularly rich 。 "
" Oh? It's strange that some days ago, I saw some people carrying a basket of sulfur to sell in the market in Yizhou. It turns out that's true. It's good, it's good. " Zhang xianle is very happy.
Yue Yun continued: "it's more than that. Before we conquered Yizhou, the Spaniards just landed in the northern part of Yizhou and were later repulsed by the Dutch. Now the cooperation between Dayu and the Netherlands is getting deeper and deeper. They finally tell the truth. It turns out that Spain discovered open-pit gold veins in the northern part of Yizhou. This place is called Jinguashi by the Spanish. It is said that gold is very rich, Originally, the Dutch wanted to exploit by themselves after they drove Spain away, but we didn't expect to capture Yizhou. "
" golden vein. " Zhang Xian felt that his heart was beating faster and faster. "Wonderful, really wonderful. "
after eating the sugarcane and saying what should be said, Yue Yun stretched out and ordered the general to return to reranzhe city. After another four days' rest, the warships of Dayu state slowly headed for Mint island.
……
Mint Island, the Spanish governor's house, Mier is reading the war report about Huayan. After this period of massacre, more than 17000 people in Huayan died under their guns, and 3000 people hid in the mountains.
"Governor, Huayan state has been basically destroyed. This time, we have taken a total of 7 million taels of silver and 500000 taels of gold from Huayan state. "
the lieutenant in charge of this operation reported with a slightly cruel smile.
"Well done, Joseph, these bastards have stolen so much money from us. I should have killed them earlier." Mier said coldly that for him, the lives in the war report were just a number, because in his eyes, these Aborigines were not human at all.
Joseph complimented: "it is the governor's foresight that I have ordered the silver, gold, jewelry and porcelain collected to be sent to the governor's private warehouse, and these things can be transported back to Spain in a week."
Miel stood up and patted Joseph on the shoulder excitedly. "You're really smart. I always like to work with smart people. My governor's office is about to end. I'll recommend you to be the new governor here. "
" thank you, your excellency. " Joseph said excitedly, this is exactly what he dreamed of.
He then flattered: "governor, I have also left some beautiful women of Dayu kingdom to serve you. These people should die. They are lucky to keep their lives to serve the governor. "
" who said no? It's an honor for these bastards to serve our noble Spaniards. " Meer said with a cruel smile.
Joseph looked carefully at Miel, who was well aware of the cruelty of the governor.
In fact, the people who can be sent to mint island as governor must be cruel and cruel, because the distant overseas colonies are generally the exiles of their own prisoners.
it's like Australia is an overseas prison in Britain, and Indochina is an overseas prison for the French, and the governor is the regulator of these exile places.
How can he subdue these unruly prisoners without a cold heart.
In his view, he just wanted to make a profit before leaving office.
But he is smart enough to take advantage of Spain's current dissatisfaction with greater Chongqing, because the Dutch are becoming more and more powerful after cooperating with greater Chongqing, which makes them feel uneasy.
With the help of Mier, the country finally gave Mier the right to deal with all the affairs here, so the massacre against Huayan began.
Of course, he has no sympathy for these Huayan people. Killing aborigines is a common thing in Europe. Who can make them look like lower race in the eyes of Europeans?
"Governor, I won't disturb you. Please enjoy yourself." Joseph saluted.
Miel waved to Joseph to leave, as night fell and he was going back to enjoy his delicious food.
At the same time.Yue Yun and Eric's combined fleet has arrived 100 nautical miles away from mint island. According to their plan, they will suddenly attack the Spanish fleet in the early morning of the next day.
In this war, they will completely destroy the Spanish fleet in Asia and destroy the Spanish colonists in the region.
Taking advantage of the cover of the night, Yue Yun and Eric let the crew take turns to rest on duty. At this time, the dark color became their protective color.
During the night's voyage, they did not encounter any obstacles. The next day, when the coastline turned pale, they appeared in the Spanish military port of mint island.
"In battle formation, in position." Yue Yun issued a military order.
His voice fell, and the steamship at the head used its own power to quickly blockade the Spanish port. At the same time, it pointed its side at the Spanish warships in the port.
Eric also ordered the warships to cooperate with the battle of Dayu, but their warships were too clumsy in front of these flexible warships.
The huge fleet that suddenly appeared in front of them made the Spanish soldiers in the sentry almost crazy. They blew the whistle urgently.
The Spanish soldiers on the warship heard the sound and quickly entered the battle position, but their speed was too slow. It was too late when they adjusted the hull.
With a roar, the opposite warships fired intensively.
"Boom boom..."
In the continuous explosion, the first concentrated warship burst like popcorn.
Eric was stunned and his heart was pinched. Now he finally realized the gap between the Dutch warship and the great Chongqing warship.
