Chapter 8 The Imperial Jade Seal (1)
Obviously, this was the previous understanding of time and space that affected his understanding and ideas of this time and space. He instinctively developed a disgust of the Yellow Sect, and even had the urge to erase this sect from the earth.
No one will have a slight favor to a person who aims to split the motherland unless that person is a traitor or a traitor.
If I hadn't had a good impression of the Panchen Lama, maybe after Tibet and Mongolians surrendered to the Ming Dynasty, this Tibetan Buddhism in the Gelug Sect would no longer exist. Similarly, the inheritance of the Dalai Lama's Living Buddha was cut off by Zhu Yinglong. After that, the only one of the Tibetan Buddhist Gelug Sects was passed on, and the Dalai Lama ended in the fifth lifetime. This is a later story.
Revenge is just an excuse, just like Nurhaci announced the "Seven Hate" of the Ming Dynasty. It is not just an excuse to attack the Ming Dynasty in just right.
Therefore, Zhu Ying was able to judge that no matter whether what E Linchen said was true or false, he needed an excuse, an excuse to regain his worthy benefits, and an excuse to gain his own support.
With this excuse, even if the relationship between Su Budi and Bai Yan was not provoked, the Ming Dynasty could take the initiative in its future action plan. No matter how stupid Su Budi was, he would never support a person who killed the master, as he would be scolded by millions of Mongolians.
Just as domestic military reforms were in full swing, the Mongolian grasslands in southern desert seemed to have entered a rare peace. This suppressed peace gave people the feeling that it was on the eve of a storm coming.
At this time, Zhu Yinglong received memorials from Hong Chengchou and Chang Yanlin respectively. Both of them said only one thing in the memorials. Brouwa, the governor of Batavia in Java, was inadvertently crazy. Not only did he completely reject all the agreements signed by Williams and the Ming Dynasty, but he also replaced the governor of Taiwan Puteres, and replaced a man named West, causing trouble in southern Taiwan, and also sent more troops and ships to Taiwan. For a time, the island of Taiwan was shrouded in the darkness of war and overseas trade was greatly affected. Not only that, the governor seemed to have taken the wrong medicine, and constantly sent small troops to harass and looting Fujian and Guangdong coastal areas. The cruelty was worse than that of the Japanese pirates back then.
Neither Hong Chengchou nor Chang Yanlin expected that the Dutch would have such a crazy behavior. It was unexpected, so he was caught off guard and suffered a lot of losses. The two of them wrote a letter to ask for punishment at the same time.
"The Dutch bullyed people too much!" Zhu Yinglong was furious. The Dutch's self-destruction agreement was already within his expectations. After all, no one was willing to spit out the benefits that had already been eaten. This was a world where the strong prey on the weak. Whoever had a big fist would be right.
This is really a wave of failure, and it is another wave of progress.
Since the Dutch did not admit the agreement, don't blame the Ming Dynasty for taking back his own things.
At this point, the Battle between China and the Netherlands and Taiwan broke out!
Since Hong Chengchou had already made arrangements on Taiwan, a total of 20,000 troops quickly gathered quietly on Taiwan. One hour before the war started, West, the Dutch Governor to Taiwan, received an ultimatum signed by Hong Chengchou. The war broke out and there was no preparation for the Dutch army on Taiwan.
After several increases in the Netherlands' garrison on Taiwan, it has exceeded 3,000 troops, but according to past experience, it was the Dutch army that took the initiative to provoke disputes, and the Ming army forced the fight back. Hong Chengchou had already recovered Taiwan's mind, so he adopted a policy of showing weakness. He had to reorganize the army of the military in dozens of conflicts with the Dutch army in disarmament, so his combat effectiveness could only be considered second-rate. The real main force would naturally win in the end with one blow.
Unfortunately, the war wisdom of the Easterners is not something that these arrogant and arrogant Westerners can learn, especially the combination of strategists and conspirators like Hong Chengchou and Song Xiance. The Dutch at most taste a little sweetness for madness. When they are not crazy, they will only be beaten.
Twenty thousand to three thousand is a very disparity in war. Of course, because the Dutch relied on the strong city, they caused certain troubles and casualties to Hong Chengchou's army, but at most they just delayed the time of defeat.
With the fall of Rezhelin City, the Ming Dynasty officially owned the sovereignty of all Taiwan. In less than a week of the entire war, the governor of Taiwan New Zealand West was shot dead, and more than 1,000 Dutch troops died in battle and about 2,000 were captured. Most of them were mercenaries, so surrender did not have that unacceptable sense of shame for them!
This is a very small-scale war, but such a small-scale war is a sign of the decline of Dutch sea power from its peak to its recession. The loss of Taiwan by the Netherlands is equivalent to losing a quarter of its source of interests in East Asia and its relationship with the Ming Dynasty has turned evil. Spain remained neutral in this war. After seeing the strength of the Ming army, the only proud head was lowered. The Ming Dynasty was completely the overlord of the entire East Asia. Spain's army on Taiwan was only 500, which was not enough for others to touch. Fortunately, he hesitated for a moment and did not follow the Dutch and hugged the interests on Taiwan.
Taiwan’s fall into the hands of the Ming Dynasty was a heavy blow to the Netherlands, especially Taiwan is an important transit station for Dutch trade merchant ships, which also had a huge impact on Dutch trade in Japan. The security of Dutch merchant ships in the Taiwan Strait and the South China Sea was not guaranteed, so the Dutch interests in East Asia suddenly shrank.
Of course, this war also had a great impact on the Ming Dynasty. First of all, the finances. Since the current finance relies too much on maritime trade, many basic engineering construction in the country had to slow down in the short term. Although some funding gap problems were solved through fundraising and equity transfer, this wound still needs to be added to the Ming Dynasty itself.
