"Your Excellency, the Zheng family's ship has sailed out of the port." Matsuura Dong looked at Katsushima, who had a serious face in front of him and said respectfully. But he seemed to be able to see Zheng Lian's angry look, and he felt a burst of worry in his heart.

As the son of the Matsuura family of Hirado, the Matsuura family had very close contacts with the Zheng family. His father, Shinnobu Matsuura, had a close relationship with Zheng Zhilong. Zheng Zhilong was able to easily gain a foothold in Japan and successfully took over Li Dan's legacy, which had a lot to do with Shinnobu Matsuura.

Not to mention that Matsura Takawa Matsura and Matsudun's mother, Mrs. Matsudun, had a good relationship, so there were rumors that she was the adopted daughter of the Matsura family. The Matsura family was also an important trading partner of the Zheng family in Japan. Over the years, Takawa and his son have also been taken care of by the Matsura family.

Now that the Zheng family is sending someone to pick him up, the Matsuura family will naturally be brought in. It is normal for Matsuura to appear in front of Katsushima Katsushima.

Katsushima Katsushima was a general in the late Warring States Period and is now 70 years younger. Unlike his father Naoshima Katsushima who directly chose to retire later, Katsushima Katsushima, who was not young, has always firmly grasped the real power in the vassal state and is currently the commander of the Nagasaki security guard. When the Edo Shogunate was first established, Katsushima Katsushima was appointed as the Nagasaki Imperial Force, and it was not yet pursued by Nagasaki at that time. Later, Japan completely closed its doors, and even the Dutch shopping mall moved to Nagasaki. The Saga Katsushima family and the Kuroda family in the Fukuoka clan were responsible for the security work in Nagasaki.

Zheng Zhilong is a person that the shogunate has always been paying attention to. According to the shogunate regulations, any Dutch ships who trade in Japan must submit reports on the situation of the overseas world when Nagasaki enters the port, and set up a special agency Fengshuo Dingshima specifically responsible for collecting and organizing these reports. This written submission of information and information is called Fengshu in Japanese, and the leader is Nagasaki.

Nowadays, Nagasaki has two people responsible for their responsibility, and will grow to four people in the future. After Feng Shuo Shuo is sorted out by the system, he will be transferred to Edo by Nagasaki!

Except for a few Nagasaki who pursued the Daname of the foreign vassal states, the others were flag books below 10,000 stones.

This is a check and balance method that the Edo Shogunate has always pursued to select practical officials from the low-class samurai and exclude the Maharaja.

Therefore, although the book was closed to the country, their understanding of the outside world did not stop. They knew very well that Zheng Zhilong's strength was stronger than before. The Qing Tatars, who defeated the Ming Dynasty, suffered losses under his command repeatedly, and even took down the officials in one fell swoop, and forced the Dutch to surrender.

"So what? You know that Zheng Zhilong is powerful, and the Dutch are not his opponents. If we in Japan have no handle to restrict him, how can we deal with it if there is a conflict in the future?" Katsushima Katsushima said that he did not care that the Zheng family's ship had set sail.

He also thought of Zheng Lian's angry look, but he felt very uncomfortable. So what if you are angry? Wouldn't you just bear it obediently?

Japan is a very important trading partner of the Zheng family, and Zheng Lian dare not be arrogant at all.

"Besides, have we done something wrong? The general clearly has an order to clearly prohibit Chinese people from going abroad and prohibit foreigners from returning to China. Is my decision contrary to the general's intention? Or are you just turning a blind eye to the general's orders to make good things for Zheng Zhilong?"

Matsuura Dong hurriedly apologized. Such a crime was not something their little Matsuura family could bear.

From the tenth year of Kuanyeong (1633) to the sixteenth year of Kuanyeong (1639), the Tokugawa shogunate issued a total of five "country locking orders", which were roughly: prohibiting the spread of Catholicism in Japan, prohibiting Japanese people from going abroad, and Japanese people abroad are not allowed to return to China. People and merchant ships from other countries except the Netherlands and China are not allowed to come to Japan. The scope of activities of Dutch and Chinese merchant ships is only limited to Nagasaki.

That's not a joke.

The reason why the Dutch were opened up is that they promised the shogunate that they gave up their mission. They did not support any missionary activities, and also provided support for the shogunate's actions to suppress the uprising of believers in exchange for the trust of the shogunate. However, the shogunate was not completely at ease with the Dutch. In addition to stipulating that they could only do business in Nagasaki, they also limited their residence to a small island outside Nagasaki Port (out of the island), and stipulated that they were not allowed to contact the Japanese people and had to undergo strict inspections when entering and leaving. The Dutch went privately with a Japanese woman, and their children would be executed immediately once discovered.

Therefore, compared with the Netherlands, the treatment of Chinese in Japan is already higher. Not only can Chinese marry Japanese wives, the shogunate also set up a Tangguan to allow immigrants and merchants to live in.

But Katsushima Katsushima prohibited Takawa from going to China on the grounds that "the Japanese girl did not enter the Central Plains", which is really not a sign of being a chicken feather.

But he thought he was a plan, but he would never have thought that Zheng Zhilong had already replaced the kernel.

In March, Anping is bright and spring, Zheng Zhilong rarely enjoys a comfortable life. Because now he doesn’t even need to move his mind too much.

The situation in Nanyang is developing in a good direction. Whether it is Annan, Angkor, Siam, Myanmar, Sulu, Brunei and other countries, these countries are facing the threat of foreign Western forces. The Portuguese and Spaniards have been rampant in Nanyang a hundred years ago, making them very frightened by foreigners.

Now that China's time-honored umbrella company has been opened, these countries, no matter how they feel Zheng Zhilong's true sense, they all show great enthusiasm.

At least I can buy a 'ambal' by doing this.

It can be said that in addition to the Malay Peninsula, there are still some troubles. Even if Zheng Zhilong goes to New South Wales to collect protection fees, the local kings of those countries will definitely come here happily.

As for Jinling and Central Plains, Jiangnan's scolding and shouting had subsided. The court was discussing whether to reorganize a mission to go north. But as Zheng Zhilong expected, few people dared to continue to go to Yanjing now. Instead, many people wrote to Zheng Zhilong, asking for a secret recipe for smallpox. Zheng Zhilong was not careful and handed over the cowpox.

If there is no technical content in the world, will the Tartars use it immediately?

The situation in the Central Plains has not changed drastically. The war in western Shanxi is still continuing. Although Li Zicheng was attacked from many sides, his arrogance is still steadily. Of course, hidden dangers have also emerged.

Zuo Liangyu from Huguang successfully arrived at the city of Xiangyang and joined Gao Doushu in Yunyang. However, more than 100,000 troops were trapped in the city, and Bai Wang also defended Xiangyang City steadily.

Zuo Liangyu no longer attacks the city, and he has not even blocked the road to the north. He is just waiting for Bai Wang to abandon the city and flee north.

Because Haoge defeated Liu Fangliang and Guo Sheng, the three prefectures in northern Henan were taken down by Haoge. Guo Sheng did not go to Guanzhong, but chose to continue to persist in Qilu, while Liu Fangliang fled to Heluo.

Luoyang was around, Tongguan was close to him. Li Zicheng quickly transferred Li Yan, who was assisting Li Guo in Taiyuan to Heluo, and prepared to take advantage of the fact that Li Yan was a member of the Central Plains to defend Heluo.

Li Zicheng's situation is also difficult now. His territory seems to be very large, but he has almost lost all the wealthy land in his hands. If only Guanzhong and northwest are left, he may not have enough food for even a large army in the next year.

Therefore, guarding half of the western Jin Dynasty, guarding Heluo, and guarding Xiangyang will protect the future of the Dashun Dynasty. If it cannot be defended, it will be difficult to protect the northwest. Who said that the place is too barren? Even the chaotic Central Plains, Qilu, and Northern Zhili are worse than those of them.

Li Zicheng had digged a hole for himself for three years and did not collect taxes. Now that he fell into the hole, he couldn't even climb out.

But in the short term, Li Zicheng can still hold on. Zuo Liangyu obviously does not want to lose his strength. In addition, Xiangyang City is not ordinary, so the Left Army only surrounds Xiangyang without fighting. This is because he hopes that after the Tartars can capture Heluo, he can enjoy the success of his own.

Once the Dashun Army lost Heluo, it would be difficult for Ruzhou and Nanyang to be saved. Bai Wang did not want to be a lonely army and was attacked from the back and forth. The best way was to abandon Xiangyang City and run back to Wuguan quickly.

But this way, Li Zicheng's territory in the Central Plains was completely lost. If the war in western Shanxi was defeated again, the Qing army continued to work hard, attacking Tongguan and detoured through Mongolia and coming from north to south, could Li Zicheng resist?

If he can't resist, it will be difficult for him to abandon the northwest and go to Huguang.

Wuguan, Tongguan, and Hanzhong are very convenient for defense, but they are also very troublesome when they want to come out. Maybe they will become a turtle in a jar.

But if it resists, how long can Li Zicheng last?

In the dilapidated land in the northwest and the three years he preached that he would not collect taxes, he didn't know whether the military expenditure of the Dashun Yang Army was sufficient.

In short, Li Zicheng's situation is not good, and he is attacked in several directions, and he is targeted by the public.

But it was difficult for the Qing army to take Li Zicheng quickly. Look at Datong and Taiyuan, aren’t they still firmly grasped by Shunjun now?

The Southern Route Army led by Haoge is now divided into two parts. It is difficult to conquer Qilu and manage the Central Plains with a large land and sparse population. At least the current level is absolutely insufficient, so it is hard to say that they can even take over Heluo.

Under such a general trend, Zheng Zhilong had no room for his brain.

You can see it with just a glance.

Although the general trend of the world considers human brain cells, it depends more on hard power. Imagine that if Li Zicheng was replaced by the Southern Ming Dynasty, the first target of the Qing Dynasty was Emperor Chongzhen. More than 100,000 troops were fighting along the canal. Now they would enter Lingnan and kill through the entire China. Zheng Zhilong was not uncommon.

As for the Qilu area, Guo Sheng has limited strength and has now given up Dongchang Prefecture and guarded Jinan Prefecture with Liu Zeqing. Zheng Zhilong is now waiting for news of the fall of Jinan Prefecture.

Guo Sheng actually pulled Liu Zeqing in, and didn't see how good he was. He could turn against others when he saw that the situation was not good. If he didn't sell Jinan City, Zheng Zhilong could even deduct his own tricks.

Zheng Zhilong, who was so "believing" about Liu Zeqing's betrayal, was obviously influenced by the history of his previous life, but the change in the situation in Qilu also shows a fact-the war in Qilu is about to begin.

Behind Jinan Prefecture are Qingzhou and Yanzhou. Shi Kefa refused to let Liu Zhaoji go north. With the strength of Yanzhou Prefecture, it was obviously impossible to stop the Tartars.

Kong Yinzhi from Qufu is afraid that he will lick his ugly face and stage a variety of ugly dramas. What kind of persuasion to make a statement is definitely indispensable.

And what about Qingzhou?

Li Shiyuan is pretty good, He Yongqing also knows the general situation, but when the Tartars really hit Qingzhou, the general situation must have been achieved. With Kong Yinzhi's kneeling, can the Tartars not be arrogant and arrogant?

Zheng Zhilong had already asked Zheng Zhiguan to stare at the Kong family. Once Kong Yinzhi knelt on his knees and licked the Tartars, the statue of Confucius with a rat-tailed braid would spread all over the world. Not only would the Kong family lose face, but the scholars would also be humiliated.

However, in this situation, Zheng Zhilong really doesn't even have to turn his mind around.

Therefore, he was really enjoying himself during this period, and deeply experienced the corrupt and depraved life of the feudal aristocracy.

Until Zheng Lian came to apologize to him!
