315 Human Propeller(2/2)
Unconsciously, in his melancholy skill, the second fleet led by Zhang Dashun had already faced close forces with the navy and successfully launched a hand-to-hand battle. Dashun was even more kind than expected. After boarding the ship, he tried hard to persuade the surrender, trying to avoid casualties between the two sides, and kept shouting - "I am Dashun! I am Dashun!"
In the second round of blitzkrieg, the Fang family navy did not fire a single shot and a soldier was not dead. Under Zhang Dashun's persuasion, even the Fujian navy had no casualties. The huge gap in strength created an extremely harmonious battle and seized 970,000 gold coins.
February 4, 10th, Xiaoyu landed in Hangzhou.
Fang Xian thought he would continue to invest, and then went north to Yizhou to completely eliminate the rhythm of the navy, but he did not expect that this time he landed in an unprecedented way. More than a dozen officials with figured appearances were already waiting for him.
He was afraid that something unexpected would happen in the game, so he quickly called out three thousand kiln soldiers to come to guard.
Seeing this, more than a dozen officials hurriedly ordered the officers and soldiers to put down their weapons and send a representative to negotiate.
Fang Xian thought he would come across a promise, too.
"Who are you?" Fang Xian met the county magistrate 3-5 before, and he couldn't guess the ranking of the person in front of him at home.
"There is the governor of Zhili." The official smiled bitterly, "There is only one who is here to welcome Fang... Fang... Admiral."
"Oh, what's the matter? I'll just ask you for investment, right?"
"...No, no, that's not what it means." The Governor spread his hands, "Admiral, my Qing Dynasty's navy has been wiped out by your mighty army."
"Don't take this...just, if I don't do it, someone will do it." Fang Xian certainly didn't take it seriously.
"What the admiral said is that the previous exchange of fire with the Japanese pirates had already made us understand." The official lowered his voice and quietly said, "In fact, after hearing that the navy was defeated, the Empress Dowager specially commissioned me to come for negotiations."
"Hmm? Queen Mother? There is such a discordant existence? Is there Li Lianying?"
"Admiral Fang, I wonder if you are interested in submitting to the court." The governor asked with courage, "The Empress Dowager Fang, you are well-trained and have a very good background. You have already granted the position of Admiral of the Qing Dynasty. In the future, the court will allocate silver to the fleet every month. I wonder what Admiral Fang wants?"
“…………”
"Admiral Fang?"
"What if I don't agree?"
"Admiral Fang, the conditions are already very good. In this way, everyone can live up to their face, which is equivalent to the imperial court providing silver for the navy every year."
"Nonsense, how much does it cost to raise a navy yourself to provide me with how much money? Do you think I'm stupid?"
"Admiral Fang, you can also discuss the specific amount of money..."
"I don't have the heart to discuss it." Fang Xian shook his head, "It's just a good deal to deal with the Fujian Navy, and I'm still rushing back to Southeast Asia."
"Admiral Fang must not!" said the governor anxiously, "Now the only one who can stop the Japanese is yours."
"What are you afraid of? The Japanese have landed here. Maybe you can just send me the official position like you are sending me."
"………………” The Governor was silent for a while and finally understood the admiral's meaning. He no longer considered himself a member of the Qing Dynasty, so he spoke, "Admiral Fang, you have been born in Macau for generations. This is not good after all..."
Fang Xian smiled and said, "What's wrong with it? I'm talking to the Qing government, not my motherland."
The governor was stunned again. What kind of monster is this kid? He actually said such extreme fallacies.
Fang Xian was too lazy to talk nonsense with him anymore and spoke directly: "I am responsible for defending the coastal areas and repelling the Japanese and foreigners. You and I are in a entrusted relationship, not a subordinate relationship, can I?"
When the governor heard this number, he was very happy. This little money was much cheaper than the navy. The empress dowager originally promised him the highest "military expenses" of 200 million gold coins per year, but this legendary terrible guy actually only costs more than 20 million yuan per year!
He seems smart, but he is actually confused. The Governor thinks so.
The governor naturally agreed without thinking. In an instant, the Fujian Navy announced the dissolution, and the two ports of Hangzhou, Zhou and Yizhou became the exclusive ports of the Fang family's navy. The Fang family had recovered the lost territory of the Qing Dynasty in East Asia, which was also a curved rescue.
A bunch of officials completed the task successfully and wanted to invite the Fang family and his group to Louwai Building for dinner. Fang Xian thought about it and let it go, so a bunch of officials went to celebrate with a smile.
After walking in the yellow jacket, Yuyan quietly walked behind Fang Xian and asked, "5 million? Isn't it too little?"
"Enough, no matter how many there are, it's just a number." Fang Xian looked at the night view in the rain, "The more we want, the more people will be stripped of. Although he doesn't know if the 'people' in this world really exists, don't let them down."
"Oh, Uncle Xian, you are hypocritical!"
"You are still you, Yuyan."
"I've been too tired in wars recently. I've investigated. Lai Island has just captured the capital and will have some rest. We are now in a state of being tired and we just wait for work. Why not have a good rest in Hangzhou?"
"Um."
During the rest, Fang Xian felt a little distressed. Before he knew it, he seemed to be raising an army of 3,000 troops. Every time he approached the port, he would give them some bonuses to have fun. Tens of thousands of gold coins evaporated.
But when I think about how I can eat, tax and money in the future, I don’t have to worry about spending money at all!~!
