Chapter 665

Li Yuanqing chuckled: "distinguished governor, for this matter, I personally, as well as my army, would like to make a sincere apology to you, the Spanish Empire and the governor's office in Manila! This is a little bit of a small matter, quarrel, take office to the extent of the operation, we do have some responsibility! In this regard, we will bear the medical expenses of your wounded soldiers and sailors! "

Li Yuanqing said, also like a gentleman, polite to Valen - dagama.

Apologies don't cost money. Li Yuanqing doesn't open his mouth.

"Well?"

Li Yuanqing has been smiling at Li Yuanqing for several minutes?

What do you mean?

This, this hit the people of the Spanish Empire, or the soldiers and sailors in active service, and then apologized and compensated for some medical expenses?

"General Li, are you sure this is your solution?"

It's just like some monsters like Li Yuanqing.

Li Yuanqing said with a smile: "your distinguished governor, that's it. Do you have any questions?"

Valen dagama gasped!

At this time, he also found that it was almost impossible for him to do a simple good!

At this time, those white soldiers and sailors behind them heard the result here, and could not help but scold one by one.

He not only scolded Li Yuanqing, but also did not leave behind Valon dagama. He simply wanted to roll up all the 18 generations of Wallen dagama's ancestors, believing that he had insulted the glory of the Spanish Empire.

Listening to Joseph carefully translating here, Li Yuanqing's mouth can not help but show a cold smile.

Glory?

How about these white haired monkeys?

For the Netherlands, for Portugal, Li Yuanqing is indeed a bit afraid, to a large extent, do not want to face their edge.

However, for Spain, which is about to die, Li Yuanqing has enough confidence!

At this time, the pattern of Southeast Asia has been basically stable, with Spain, the Netherlands and Portugal at the same time.

However, the most powerful British Empire has not yet fully focused on this place. They are still in India, clearing away the rebel forces of Assange.

There will be a vacuum period of at least a decade or even two decades before they can focus their attention on Southeast Asia.

This period of time is enough for Li Yuanqing and his fleet to grow!

If we really can't get along with each other today, we can't blame him for his ruthlessness and black hands!

Listening to the shouting and scolding behind him more and more mixed and worse, Valen dagama's face was gloomy. For a moment, he looked directly into Li Yuanqing's eyes and said coldly like an eagle: "General Li, if today you and the Ming government can't give me a satisfactory account! I will expel your right to stay in Manila port! "

Li Yuanqing's fleet size is not comparable to those small aborigines.

In addition, at this time, the fortifications of the long life camp have been piled up on this side of the wharf. Even if Warren dagama is not happy, he does not dare to say too much. Instead, he uses a relatively gentle way, which is also his bottom line!

Li Yuanqing couldn't help laughing: "distinguished governor, I really regret your decision! If my fleet and I can't stay in Manila to trade, I'm afraid it's not only our loss, but also Manila's loss! "

"Hum!"

Valen dagama snorted, "General Li, I doubt your sincerity very much! Your sincerity in this matter

Li Yuanqing gave a faint smile.

Things have come to this. If we don't use force to solve the problem, it will be better.

After all, the fleet has just entered Nanyang, the trade routes have not been fully spread out, and the goods have not been exchanged for silver. At this time, if the Spanish in Manila are directly killed, it is bound to arouse the dissatisfaction of the Western powers and cast a shadow over Li Yuanqing's subsequent journey.

"What would you like us to do, your excellency?"

At this time, there were already sailors and sailors. After more than ten steps to Varun dagama, someone called out in Chinese: "how to do it? Hand over those women! Compensate us for all the economic losses! What's more, you mean yellow haired monkey, you must kowtow to us and apologize! "

The translator passed the words to Valen Dharma's ears, and he said with a faint smile: "General Li, this is our requirement! If you don't, then, now, please leave Manila! "

Mr. Li Yuanqing, I am very disappointed! These soldiers and sailors are just a group of the most despicable ruffians and scoundrels! Do you want to use their words as the ultimate criterion in this matter? "

Valen dagama snorted coldly, but he no longer looked at Li Yuanqing.Li Yuanqing's eyes narrowed slightly. Just as he was about to open his mouth, a close soldier behind him rushed over and whispered a few words to Li Yuanqing's ear.

Li Yuanqing's face did not change, but for a moment, he returned to normal. He said with a smile: "your distinguished governor, that's the case. I'd like to take another step back. We are willing to offer you one hundred taels of silver as compensation for this matter. In addition, if the conditions are suitable, we will purchase 20 large sail warships from your side! "

"Well?"

When he heard the first half of Li Yuanqing's sentence, he would like to go up and give Li Yuanqing an old punch, 100 Liang silver. Is this to send the beggar?

But Li Yuanqing's last sentence, is to let his spirit.

At this time, behind him, there were white soldiers and sailors yelling: "despicable yellow haired monkeys, our Spanish Empire's warships, even if they sink to the bottom of the sea, they will never sell them to you scumbags! I'm dying of this heart

"You yellow haired monkeys are really deceiving! Do you want to buy our warships without apologizing? "

“……”

"Enough!"

At this time, Valen dagama cried out.

He is, after all, the governor of Spain, the highest officer of Spain in Manila, and has been operating here for many years. His prestige is still without any problem.

A group of sailors and soldiers behind were scared and did not dare to say more.

There was a little smile on Wallen dagama's face. He looked at Li Yuanqing and said with a smile: "General Li, are you sincere in purchasing warships?"

Li Yuanqing laughed: "of course. I have always been full of confidence in the navigation technology of the Spanish Empire

Wallen dagama is not happy!

On his hand, there are more than 20 old Spanish sailboats that are about to be retired, ready to go.

But no one in Manila, including the surrounding areas, has such a big appetite to eat so many warships.

It has been a long time since Li Yuanqing gave him a big pillow.

Just as it happens, the Spanish official fleet is coming. If this is done, maybe he can be promoted to another level!

"General Li, thank you for making such a big concession in this matter. On behalf of the Spanish Empire and Manila, I accept your sincerity! However, in terms of compensation, you need to pay a thousand taels of silver! "

Li Yuanqing said with a smile: "I can accept this matter, but the governor, I need 300 boxes of Cuban cigars!"

Valen dagama also understood Li Yuanqing's meaning and couldn't help laughing: "deal

With that, he looked at Li Yuanqing with a smile and said, "General Li, tonight, I will hold a dinner party in the governor's house. We can have a formal and good talk about the warship."

Li Yuanqing laughed: "thank you for your kindness. I accept your invitation. The fortifications on this side will also be removed immediately! "

………

Valen dagama soon left, and Li Yuanqing also ordered the children to start cleaning up the fortifications here.

At this time, Yang Xiaobo ran over quickly and said in a low voice: "general, it's a Spanish fleet with nearly 30 ships. In less than a quarter of an hour, they should be able to enter the port. I think we should be able to hear from the governor's office soon. "

Li Yuanqing nodded slowly, "strengthen vigilance and wait for orders at any time!"

"Yes

More than half an hour later, the fortifications on this side of the wharf have been demolished, and the Spanish fleet has begun to enter the port.

The huge sails, the huge warships and the swarthy muzzles are all in one piece, which really brings great pressure to people.

Li Yuanqing has been observing from a small observation platform on this side of the wharf.

The Spanish's large warships are bigger than the ones they have now. They are about 30 meters in height.

The difference is that their ship's side is very high, which is one to two meters higher than that of the Ming army's warships. On both sides, rows of swarthy gun muzzles are full of terrifying deterrence.

For this, Li Yuanqing also whispered with Joseph and Yang Xiaobo.

Joseph quickly explained in a low voice: "general, this is because the wind and waves in the Pacific are very small, so the ship's side does not need to be built too high, which is conducive to saving costs and carrying more goods! However, the Spanish fleet is always active in the Atlantic Ocean, especially when they want to come to the Indian Ocean or Southeast Asia, they have to go through the Cape of good hope. But on this side of the Cape of good hope, even at the best of weather, the wind and waves are strong enough to rush forward. Therefore, the ship side must be designed higher to protect the cabin and maintain the stability of the ship! "

Although Yang Xiaobo didn't quite understand this, Li Yuanqing nodded slowly and fell into deep thought.

Indeed, Westerners have been ahead of China in navigation technology.

Although the Zheng family was very strong at this time, their scope of activities was still in East Asia. In the calm Pacific Ocean, at most, they came to the South Ocean.Today, Li Yuanqing had intended to fight with the Spaniards. However, after getting the news of the arrival of the Spanish fleet, Li Yuanqing wisely gave up the idea.

After all, there was too little time left for him to occupy all the fort and defend firmly before the Spanish fleet arrived.

As the saying goes, "those who know the current affairs are the heroes.".

At this time, Huaxia is already lagging behind in this respect, and it is unrealistic to want to catch up immediately.

Li Yuanqing can only maintain enough patience.
