Li Guangyuan's mouth twitched, but he didn't think too much.
In other words, he is actually happy to see what happened between his sister and Zhu Hongyu.
Li Guangyuan strode to Zhu Hongyu's table, leaned over and spoke in Zhu Hongyu's ear.
"General, that matter has been arranged, and someone has already taken the bait!"
Zhu Hongyu's eyes lit up, he put down the brush in his hand and spoke.
"Sit down first, sit down and slowly tell me what happened!"
Li Guangyuan nodded, sat down opposite Zhu Hongyu, picked up the teapot and poured himself a cup, raised his head and drank it all, and then spoke.
"Hey, the general guessed right, those Spaniards in the weapons workshop are indeed dishonest."
"I asked someone to pretend to be a Spanish envoy..."
…
Under Simonson's auspices, there are now three sets of hydraulic machinery in the weapons workshop.
In order to meet the conditions for the use of these hydraulic machines, Zhu Hongyu had the foresight to locate the weapons workshop on the river bank.
The thatched houses erected near the weapons workshop were provided for the craftsmen to live in.
When many soldiers of the Liberation Army could only sleep in shacks, craftsmen, whether they were Han Chinese or surrendered Spaniards, gave priority to living in thatched houses.
When thatched houses were built in large numbers, the soldiers of the Liberation Army no longer had to live in shacks with drafts on all sides.
After being able to squeeze three or five people into a thatched hut, the craftsmen have already moved into two-person rooms.
It’s evident how much Zhu Hongyu attaches importance to these craftsmen!
Zhu Hongyu's attention can naturally be felt by the craftsmen.
Most of the craftsmen were moved, especially the Chinese craftsmen. They had not experienced this feeling of being valued and respected for a long, long time.
Almost everyone is grateful to Zhu Hongyu!
However, not everyone appreciates Zhu Hongyu's emphasis on craftsmen.
Henridova is one of them!
He is Spanish, but not pure blood, just a mixed blood.
His mother was the daughter of an indigenous noble family. After being forcibly raped by a Spanish colonist, she became pregnant and gave birth to him.
Therefore, his mother never liked him very much.
Since childhood, his peers have also isolated and ostracized him because of his appearance and life experience.
This lack of family affection and the miserable childhood experience made Henridovar feel extremely disgusted with the indigenous people who raised him.
On the contrary, I have a very strong sense of identification with Spanish culture!
He felt that the natives were simply a group of backward and lowly barbarians, completely incomparable to the Spaniards.
Henridovar was deeply proud of his half-Spanish heritage.
Henridovar's sense of identity with Spain is even stronger than that of some pure-blood Spaniards who only have money in their eyes.
He looked down upon Simonson very much, feeling that Simonson had surrendered to the Chinese for money and was groveling in front of the Chinese.
It is simply an insult to his noble Spanish blood and a blasphemy to God.
If the Chinese hadn't put the knife to his own neck, Henritoire would never have worked for the Chinese.
Even though the Chinese leaders respected these craftsmen very much and paid them a high salary.
Even in Manila, as a mixed-race Spaniard, his status has always been very low, not respected, and often bullied by pure-blood Spaniards.
He is also unwilling to work for the Chinese!
Henridovar thought about escaping the river valley all the time, escaping back to Manila, and returning to the embrace of God.
Originally he had no choice but just the day before yesterday, he found an opportunity.
That day, he was using a water-powered forging hammer to pound a breastplate, and someone contacted him...
It's so pitiful that Henridova, who had never experienced a severe beating from society or experienced the dangers of the human heart, had no idea that this might be a fishing expedition!
…
It's already very dark.
Henritoir listened to the even snoring of the Chinese craftsman who lived under the same roof as him.
He got up from the bed in the dark and tiptoed outside.
His movements were very gentle, as if he was afraid of disturbing his roommates.
After Henridova walked out of the thatched hut, he breathed a heavy sigh of relief, and then strode towards the weapons workshop.
When he arrived at the gate of the weapons workshop, he discovered that he was not the first to arrive.
Five people had gathered outside the door of the weapons workshop.
There are two Spaniards here, two mixed races, and a Chinese. If we add him, there will be six people.
They are all craftsmen in the weapons workshops who are dissatisfied with the Chinese.
When one of the Spaniards saw Henridova finally appear, he waved and said in a low voice.
"Hurry up, move quickly!"
Henridova quickly quickened his pace and trotted to the gate of the workshop.
The six people gathered together and started discussing in low voices.
The leading Spaniard pointed at the Chinese next to him and said.
"This is Zhou. He is not a family member of the rebels, but an employee sent by the Governor's Palace."
"He infiltrated into the rebels this time under the order of the Governor, to create an opportunity to cooperate with the army sent by the Governor to encircle and suppress the Chinese rebels, to eliminate the Chinese rebels in one fell swoop and restore the original order in Manila."
Zhou Tianxu nodded and said.
"I have received intelligence that the Governor's encirclement and suppression troops have arrived outside the valley. As long as we take action here, the Governor will send troops."
"When the inside and outside are combined, there is no invincible principle!"
"It's just that if chaos breaks out, I'll definitely be in danger waiting in the heart of the enemy. Maybe my life will be lost if I'm not careful."
"You haven't taken action now. If you want to regret it, it's still too late!"
Henridova's face turned slightly red from excitement and he spoke.
"Zhou, please don't humiliate me!"
"For the great Spain and for the Governor's Palace, I am willing to give everything!"
"Just tell us what we need to do!"
Henridova is a hundred loyal to Spain!
He is the kind of loyal dog who is willing to bring his own dry food and sacrifice everything for Spain.
Everyone agreed.
Zhou Tianxu nodded and said.
"The rebels' ability to win repeatedly against the Governor-General's Mansion lies in their ordnance."
"As long as we can destroy the rebels' weapons workshop and burn their weapons workshop to ashes, it will be a great achievement!"
"Moreover, as long as there is a fire on our side, the governor outside the valley will send troops to respond to our internal and external forces and defeat the rebels in one fell swoop."
"When the time comes, we will all be heroes, and the Governor's Mansion will definitely not treat us badly!"
Everyone nodded together, and then looked eagerly in the direction of the weapons workshop.
Zhou Tianxu spoke again.
"This matter is dangerous. Once you do it, there is no possibility of going back."
“Everyone must think clearly, it’s not too late to regret now!”
Everyone shook their heads and spoke.
"For Spain and for God, we are willing to give everything!"
Zhou Tianxu took a deep breath, his eyes became extremely cold, and a sarcastic sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth.
Then he shouted loudly.
"Do it!"
Following Zhou Tianxu's order, the remaining five people were ready to open the door of the weapons workshop, sneak inside, and set fire to destroy the weapons workshop of the Liberation Army.
However, before they could reach the door, the door creaked open on its own.
