"oh?"

Suddenly, everyone was moved, and no one expected Li Xin to make such a powerful promise.

In fact, Zheng Zhilong also thinks that what Li Xin said is quite reasonable. After all, the Chinese in the Philippines have their own system. If he is an outsider, he will inevitably start a war. Although he is confident in his own strength, he is a local snake. Even if he can eventually defeat the Chinese in the Philippines, he will probably win miserably. If he meets the Spanish and Portuguese again to take revenge, perhaps the country's destruction is not far away.

Therefore, he had to admit that establishing a parliamentary system with the Chinese in the Philippines was the best way out, but is Li Xin that good? Is there a free lunch in the world?

Everyone's faces showed hesitation again.

Li Xin said seriously: "Wanli regards overseas Chinese as abandoned people. He once expressed his opinion on the massacre of Manila Chinese in Spain. Overseas fights are unknown. The four Chinese people are the most humble. How can we use untouchables to launch military revolution?

This is simply a bastard. Since then, the Spaniards have seen the Ming Dynasty's harsh and slutty nature, and then exploited and massacred Chinese people and became more unscrupulous. As a result, the tragedy happened again in the twelve years of Chongzhen, and more than 20,000 Chinese were killed by the Spaniards.

If Wanli had not died long ago, I would have taken him to Manila and kowtowed to the Chinese merchant who died tragically under the Spanish butcher knife!

I am not Wanli, nor Chongzhen. Please don’t doubt my sincerity. Even if we are separated from the sea in the future, we will have the same language and writing, the same culture and habits. We are always Chinese. The world today is a world of great struggle. The losers will fall forever. Who else can the Chinese rely on if they do not rely on the Chinese?

Please don’t doubt my kindness. I just want to do my best to help overseas Chinese to help my compatriots become independent and prosperous. I can tolerate Chongzhen, why can’t I tolerate your Zheng family? I hope you don’t have internal conflicts, don’t just focus on your own acre of land, and look at it a little longer.

Please also tell all overseas Chinese for me that our bandit army is a solid backing for the Chinese, whether it is overseas or mainland China!

We support overseas Chinese to expand their territory. In short, Chinese people have the right to gain economic autonomy and political independence, and have the right to gain rights and interests corresponding to their status!”

Everyone suddenly felt their blood boiling. Wanli's cold-blooded and ruthlessness once made people desperate, but today, Li Xin gave them hope again.

Li Xin smiled slightly and said, "But I still have to make two requirements. First, no more harassed coastal areas, nor are they allowed to force taxes of 3,000 taels of silver per ship from merchant ships.

Second, let go of trade with Japan, and in the future, mainland China, North Korea, Japan and the Philippines will establish free trade zones, and goods exchanges will be exempted from tariffs. I will put pressure on Japan and North Korea. I hope you will not seek temporary small profits, but should promote fair and free trade. After all, the Philippines is rich in products, and in the long run, it will be beneficial to you. For example, rubber, you can plant rubber trees in large quantities. Mainland China is in a period of rapid development. With the continuous emergence of new technologies, the need for rubber will be very great. I hope you can seize the opportunity."

Zheng Zhilong gave a sincere tribute: "The Regent's mind is rare in the world. Please rest assured. From then on, our Zheng family will act according to the rules, otherwise the world will not tolerate it."

"Okay, I believe in you. I hope that under the governance of your Zheng family, the Chinese in the Philippines can live a prosperous and self-reliant life!"

Li Xin nodded and smiled, "It's not convenient to return to Guangzhou tonight. I'll hold a banquet at Humen to welcome you. I hope you don't think it's simple. In a few days, I'll send a few people to the Philippines with you. Please rest assured. I just understand the situation and will never interfere with any of your actions. I hope to strive to promote representatives from various Chinese forces to Beijing within two years to discuss the great cause of the founding of the country!"

"Okay, okay, the Regent said it well!"

The generals brought by Zheng Zhilong were already full of passion and could not help but cheer.

"Please, please!"

Li Xin waved his hand.

"Regent, please!"

Zheng Zhilong and others respected and humble.

The soldiers had already sent a load of wine and food to the Zheng family fleet. When everyone heard about Li Xin's permission to establish Zheng Zhilong in the Philippines, they were all excited and shouted in unison to long live the regent. Some people could not suppress themselves and cried loudly.

Because those who have always been engaged in maritime trade have been regarded as abandoned people in the Celestial Empire, only Li Xin respects them and treats them equally.

In order to give Zheng Zhilong a detailed understanding of the bandit army and strengthen his confidence, Li Xin first led everyone to visit the military camp. Sure enough, Zheng Zhilong's confidence increased greatly, his face was full of enthusiasm, and he also felt flattered to Li Xin.

Although Li Xin defines the relationship between the two countries as equality in the future, how can Zheng Zhilong achieve true equality with some of his men? It is the same thing not to mention it. In subconsciously, Zheng Zhilong has already placed himself in the position of a vassal state.

That night, Li Xin and the middle and senior military officials held a banquet. The atmosphere was friendly while drinking and chatting. Of course, Li Xin could not let Zheng Zhilong leave empty-handedly, symbolically assisting 1,000 flintlock rifles and 20 field artillery each of 093 and 117.

Zheng Zhilong also understood that the two sides still lack mutual trust, and Li Xin's aid can only be the Republic of the Philippines, not Zheng Zhilong.

The next morning, Pierre and his family found Li Xin and said dissatisfied: "Commander, you have violated our agreement. Didn't you agree to eliminate Zheng Zhilong's fleet? I even prepared it for you, but you temporarily changed your mind and actually cooperated with Zheng Zhilong to turn the muzzle to the Portuguese and the Spaniards. All our preparations were useless, and our people were almost killed by Zheng Zhilong."

Peel's words were filled with unconcealed fear and anxiety.

The deaths of the Portuguese and the Spanish made him feel sad that the rabbit died and the fox was sad.

Although England is rival to Portugal and Spain in Europe, but on the ground of Southeast Asia, they have become allies because they are both white people, and the white people were killed, which makes him worried whether Li Xin will attack him.

He didn't sleep well last night. Thinking about it carefully, he taught Li Xin to build warships and help him train the navy. He was as if he was fascinated by ghosts. Now he has no value.

"Yes, Lord Commander, you have disappointed us so much!"

Tanahsha also hummed.

"Don't worry, please listen to my explanation!"

Li Xin laughed and said, "The Portuguese are my enemy. The Spanish have massacred Chinese in Manila twice. I must take revenge, otherwise my subjects will not agree.

And you helped me, are my friends and old friends of the Chinese people. I will always remember your help to China. Mr. Pier, don’t worry, the promised conditions will not change. At the same time, I have good news to tell you that I have prepared ten queen ships for you, and in the next few days, I can return to your motherland!”

"Oh God!"

"This is great, I have been looking forward to this day for a long time!"

"We will conquer London!"

The Peels whistled happily!

"Thank you, Your Excellency Commander!"

Even Tanasha opened her arms to Li Xin!

Now Tanasa has lost her youthfulness as a little girl and has become a standard English girl. Moreover, she has been on the shore for the past two or three years. Her diet is no longer simple cheese bread and beef, but various exquisite dishes and health porridge. Li Xin even gave her two maids to take care of her daily life. Under the conditioning of many aspects, the habit of pirates was gradually replaced by the noble demeanor. With reserve, she could dress herself up, her skin became delicate and white, and even her freckles disappeared a lot.

"No thanks, this is what I should do!"

Li Xin also opened his arms and hugged Tanasa tightly.

oh!

That large ball of strong fragrance and softness almost suffocated him!

Looking at Li Xin's intoxicated appearance, Liu Rushi despised him and secretly spitted!

After a while, Tanahsha pushed Li Xin away and turned around and said, "Mom, I have been in China for so long. I seem to have feelings for this country. I really can't bear to leave."

Linster stroked Tanatha's hair and shook his head lovingly: "Child, England is our hometown. We have been wandering outside for too long. It's time to go home!"

Tanahsha's face was reluctant and her eyes were red.

Lee Xin moved in his heart and smiled: "Mr. Peel, England is in a civil war now. Neither Charlie nor Cromwell are good things. It is still difficult for you to gain a foothold, and you don't know the situation in England, so I think we should continue to maintain contact and as your friends, I have an obligation to continue to provide support in all aspects."

"Your Excellency Commander, you mean..."

Pier's turquoise eyes flashed.

Li Xin took Tagosha's hand and said seriously: "You can keep Tanasha and John for the time being. I appoint them as the plenipotent ambassadors of the Kingdom of England to the Ming Dynasty to handle all exchanges between China and Britain. The two brothers and sisters will also become your solid backing in England. You can consider it."

"Um?"

Tanatha's turquoise eyes lit up.

She was a pirate since she was a child and wandered on the sea. She did not have a strong sense of belonging to England and did not have much attachment to the family. Instead, the prosperity and liveliness of the Ming Dynasty left a deep impression on her. At the same time, the Ming Dynasty did not have heavy fog that lasted for ten days, and there was no excessive day and night changes, which made people uncomfortable.

Of course, in the Ming Dynasty, she was respected and everyone called her Miss Tanatha. The girl means Miss, which is a kind of honorific title. When she returned to England, she would be restored to the daughter of a pirate.

"Dad, I think this is a good idea, brother, what do you think!"

Tashana hurriedly said.

"Uh-huh!"

John nodded straight. He was fascinated by the comfortable life of the Ming Dynasty and was unwilling to return to his country.

But Bill muttered in his heart, this guy must have thought about his daughter, right?
