Qian Qianyi was Zheng Sen's teacher, and the two had a close relationship. Today, Zheng Sen also controls Xiamen, Kinmen, and the Penghu Islands. It is said that he has recently captured Taiwan Island, which was occupied by the Dutch, and his power is becoming more and more powerful.
When dealing with Zheng Sen, the imperial court always adhered to the principle confirmed by the emperor himself: that is, it did not use force, but only tried to appease him.
Recently, Zheng Sen has launched several troops to attack Chaozhou, Ningbo, Quanzhou and other places, plundering people and supplies, and killing many Dashun Army officers. The impact on the southeastern coastal areas was particularly bad.
Therefore, many ministers strongly hope that the Maritime Administrator Liu Xiyao can directly send troops to destroy Zheng Sen's base on Taiwan Island.
Then the emperor slowly changed his mind and changed his past policy of appeasement. He continued to appease while using force to suppress them.
The private correspondence between Qian Qianyi and Zheng Sen was also directly authorized by the court. He hoped that through Qian Qianyi's private channels, Zheng Sen would understand how powerful he was.
Especially now that Dashun is about to implement water transportation reform and start commercial shipping of military rations, the imperial court pays more attention to the tranquility of the coastal areas and will never allow Zheng Sen to continue to cause trouble along the coast.
If he does not accept the imperial court's recruitment conditions, then at the latest this summer Liu Xiyao, the maritime commander who has already organized a large navy, will send a large-scale army to attack Taiwan.
Zheng Sen has fought against the Shunjun Navy several times at the mouth of the Yangtze River, as well as in Zhejiang and Fujian. He should be aware that the strength of the Shunjun Navy has overwhelmingly surpassed the Zhengming Navy.
Many of Zheng Zhilong's old friends served as instructors and consultants in the Shunjun Navy. They directly passed on the combat experience of the Zheng family to dominate the sea, and they were even more proficient in combat than the Zheng family navy that Zheng Sen himself rebuilt.
In his correspondence with Qian Qianyi, Zheng Sen actually revealed his belief that there was no hope of regaining his Ming Dynasty. Zheng Ming Navy's maritime trade has been squeezed by more than half of the Shunjun Navy, and even the golden waterway in the Taiwan Strait has been lost due to the Shunjun Navy.
The navy's active escort prevented Zheng Sen from receiving most of the toll tax.
He paid a high price to maintain his power in Taiwan and Xiamen. Once the Shun and Zheng armies officially started fighting, according to Zheng Sen's direct judgment, it would be difficult to hold on for more than a year.
The conditions Dashun offered him were quite favorable:
He was given the surname Li and changed his name to Li Chixin; he was granted a dukedom in addition to that of his father Zheng Zhilong; all Zheng Sen's old troops were incorporated into the Shunjun Navy.
However, Li Laiheng would never accept Zheng Sen's own insistence on proclaiming the vassal state as the founding of the country.
This is also the biggest point of disagreement in the current negotiations between the two parties.
The maritime investment promotion agency proposed by Lin Maomao opened up a new negotiation direction for this deadlock.
Li Laiheng immediately ordered Qian Qianyi to send the draft of the Maritime Investment Promotion Bureau to Zheng Sen for review, and hinted that as long as Zheng Sen returned to Chengdu and Dashun, the imperial court would open another commercial investment promotion bureau in Taiwan responsible for Nanyang trade, with charter, organization and maritime investment promotion.
Bureau is similar.
As long as Zheng Sen is loyal to this Nanyang Trade and Investment Bureau, he can use his current warships, sailors, troops, and land in exchange for 40% of the investment company's share capital.
In Li Laiheng's plan, the Nanyang Trade and Investment Promotion Bureau was not only responsible for maritime trade, but also directly compared with the East India Company. It was responsible for all trade, military, judicial, and taxation powers of the Shun Dynasty in Nanyang, which was equivalent to
A country within a country, with the direct support of the powerful national power of the Shun Dynasty, wouldn't it be much better than the small Taiwanese countries that call themselves vassals?
This condition directly made Zheng Sen very interested. In the letter he wrote to Qian Qianyi this time, he even made it clear that he hoped to directly invite Qian Qianyi to come to Xiamen to sit down.
It seems that the conclusion of the peace negotiation is not far away.
Once the Southeast Peace Agreement is concluded, the imperial court will be happy to use troops again against the Qing Dynasty, which is entrenched in the six provinces of southern Korea.
The Nanyang Investment Promotion Bureau planned in the Linmaomao blueprint was the famous Nanyang Yanping Company in later generations. It was not only the first commercial organization in Dashun to truly adopt the company system, but also the first formal colonial group in Dashun.
The Nanyang Yanping Company has existed for about 120 years since then, swallowing up Luzon State Governor's Palace, Cochin Province, Zhaonan Province (Malacca), Surabaya State Governor's Palace (Java), Borneo State Governor's Palace and Zhou Rao State Governor's Palace.
.
Until the reign of Emperor Dezong, as the struggle for hegemony in the Indian Ocean between the Dashun and Daimeer empires intensified, the Nanyang Yanping Company finally went bankrupt and liquidated because it had arranged most of the military expenditures for the Indian Ocean war.
After Dezong, the Nanyang Yanping Company was redeemed by the imperial court and restructured into the Nanyang Metropolitan Governor's Palace. Later, due to the civilization of various Nanyang territories, the establishment of the Nanyang Metropolitan Governor's Palace was also cancelled, leaving only the name Zhourao Prefecture Governor's Palace, except for Zhaonan.
In addition to the direct jurisdiction of the prefecture, the remaining Luzon Prefecture, Surabaya Prefecture, Borneo and other places were gradually changed into provinces.
After that, the negotiations between Shun Chao and Zheng Sen continued for more than a year. It was not until the tenth year of Tianfa that Zheng Jun's navy suffered a heavy blow from the maritime commander Liu Xiyao during an unauthorized attack on the Shun Jun navy's escort fleet.
After losing more than 80 warships, Zheng Sen fully accepted all the negotiation conditions. In the eleventh year of Tianfa, he presented all the territory and household registration to the Shun Dynasty. He immediately went to the court to face the saint, was given the surname of Yanping Gong, and changed his name to Li Chixin.
Later generations also called Zheng Sen his surname Gong and his surname Chixin. The most widely spread name in Southeast Asia was Zheng Chixin.
After the peaceful settlement of the Taiwan issue in the 11th year of Tianfa, Li Laiheng quickly tore up the facade of the peace agreement and raised his butcher knife against the Han and Qing regimes again. The Korean Peninsula, which had only been at peace for a few short years, returned to the flames of war.
This time, the Shun army prepared a more adequate military force, while the Qing army had already given up its intention of confronting the Dashun army in North Korea due to the huge military pressure.
After several years of accumulation, the Qing army had established a huge advance base on Tsushima Island and recruited a large number of ronin samurai and Chichichitan believers as guides on the island who were uneasy with Japan's domestic peace situation.
In order to gain the support of the Dutch and Japanese Chechidan believers, Jin Fulin, who had already taken office, also announced his conversion to Protestant Christianity and changed his name to Jin William.
When Shun Dynasty broke the peace treaty, it was the beginning of William's conquest that shocked the Japanese archipelago.
The Qing army, which had already made all military preparations, immediately abandoned a large number of cities in central Korea, and gathered its remaining tens of thousands of mixed Manchu and Korean troops into a large number of mountain cities on the southern coast of Korea.
While attacking south, we continued to transfer troops, horses, and supplies to the Tsushima base.
In the 13th year of Tenfa's reign, he launched a large-scale pirate attack called "Toi Zaiko" and "William's Conquest" by the Tokugawa shogunate.
Thanks to the support of a group of merchant ships from the Dutch, Fulinji, who moved to Tsushima Island, declared to the Dutch that when his mother was pregnant, he had dreamed of Heavenly Father, and many people had seen golden light entering their arms. He declared boldly
He is "the apostle of the Father who fights for the Protestant faith."
This violent statement that shocked the Dutch spread so widely that the Tokugawa shogunate finally called this large-scale invasion of Manchu pirates:
