Steel Dynasty - Chapter 949

[Chapter 944 Massacre Incident]

“Ask for help?”

Xiao Ming looked surprised in the imperial study. Speaking of which, if Xiao Qi had not appeared again, he would have even forgotten this person who once conspired with King Wei.

Moreover, since Xiao Wenxuan’s death, some facts have also surfaced. According to Pang Yukun, the death of Prince Ning was indeed very unjust.

Therefore, he did not continue to dwell on this matter and just let him go.

Xiao Qi’s expression was painful, and he said with difficulty: “Your Majesty, please save the remaining Han people in Luzon, otherwise, they will be completely killed by the Spaniards.”

“Han people in Cebu?” Xiao Ming frowned. frowned.

Xiao Qi nodded, and then he told Xiao Ming everything that happened after betraying King Wei. It turned out that he left Jinling City by boat that day and arrived at Cebu Island in Southeast Asia from the sea, where there was an island established by the Han people. The loose country is called Huayan State, with a population of about 20,000.

Some of the ancestors of the Han people living in Huayan Kingdom came from the dynasty of Dayu Kingdom, and some came from an earlier era. However, because Han blood flows in their bodies, they lived together in this strange place.

When Xiao Qi went to Huayan Kingdom, her original intention was to join Liang Daping, the former general of King Ning, and she also wanted to see the civilizations of Western countries.

After arriving in Huayan Kingdom, he successfully met Liang Daping. This veteran who had been loyal to King Ning remained true to his original intention and regarded him as King Xiao Ning and introduced him to the nobles of Huayan Kingdom.

After successfully settling in the Huayan Kingdom, his mind became alive. Compared with the Greater Chongqing Kingdom, this is a completely unfamiliar country. In the past few years, he often traveled back and forth to Cebu Island and Bohol Island to study Spanish culture.

But the peaceful days were always too short. Just two months ago, the Spanish, who had been ruling Bohol Island, suddenly launched an attack on the Huayan Kingdom and massacred the Huayan citizens.

The Han people living in Huayan Kingdom have always been content and self-sufficient. They usually only engage in maritime trade. They don’t have a decent army at all. How can they withstand the Spanish ships and artillery?

The once peaceful and peaceful Huayan Kingdom turned into rivers of blood in just a few days, and the few survivors fled into the mountains to be with wild beasts.

It was also at this time that he made up his mind to return to Dayu for help.

“Is this serious?” Xiao Ming’s expression remained calm, but his fists were clenched.

In contemporary times, Bohol Island and Cebu Island both belong to the Philippines, and Luzon is the largest island in the Philippines. Because it is closest to the mainland of Great Chongqing, it has always had the largest number of Chinese people here. It is precisely because of this that the Spaniards have always been suspicious of the Chinese. The Chinese were massacred twice during the Wanli period of the Ming Dynasty and the early Qing Dynasty, and the reason was simply that they were worried that the Chinese would threaten their rule.

Especially after they learned in the early Qing Dynasty that the Zheng family wanted to attack the Philippines to avenge the Chinese, they not only did not restrain themselves but intensified their efforts.

“It’s absolutely true. If you dare to lie in the slightest, Xiao Qi will definitely not be dead or intact.” Xiao Qi cried bitterly.

At this time, Qian Dafu suddenly said: “Your Majesty, the Huayan Kingdom once sent envoys to Chang’an to meet with them and wanted to become a vassal state of the Dayu Kingdom. However, they were not welcomed at the time and the late emperor did not accept their request.”

“Is there anything else about this?” Xiao Ming couldn’t find any relevant information in his memory.

“There is nothing wrong with this. Your Majesty can ask Mr. Fei Ge.” Qian Dafu said.

Xiao Ming nodded, “Go to the inner palace and call Fiji.”

In response, Qian Dafu left the imperial study, and after a while, Fiji arrived in the imperial study.

Seeing Xiao Qi kneeling on the ground, Feiji’s expression changed drastically and he exclaimed: “Xiao Qi!”

“Don’t be surprised, Mr. Fei Ge, I will explain it to you first.” After Xiao Ming said that, Xiao Qi appeared in Qingzhou and returned He told me the purpose of coming, and then asked about the affairs of this vassal country.

After pondering for a while, Fiji said: “Your Majesty, this did happen, but it happened thirty years ago, a long time ago.”

“Sure enough, this happened, so why is the imperial court unwilling to accept Huayan Kingdom?” Xiao Ming asked.

With a wry smile, Fiji said: “Your Majesty, this vassal state is not that simple. Once Huayan State is recognized as a vassal state, it means that Huayan State and Dayu State have a blood alliance. Once Huayan State is attacked, The Great Chongqing Kingdom must devote all its efforts to help. Furthermore, the Huayan Kingdom is far away overseas, and the Great Chongqing Kingdom is beyond its reach. Moreover, the most important thing is that all the Central Plains dynasties have regarded Chinese people who have immigrated abroad as untouchables and disdain them

! Startled for a moment, he remembered that Emperor Wanli refused to attack the Spanish for this reason, thinking that these people had little to do with the Ming Dynasty.

When Fiji said this, Xiao Qi suddenly became anxious. He said: “Your Majesty, what Fei Ge said is wrong. We and other Han people have the same blood flowing in our bodies. What does it matter where we were born? Such as those traitors, drinking from the Yangtze River They drink water from the Yellow River and eat rice. They are real people from Chongqing.”

Fiji opened his mouth and was about to retort when Xiao Ming stopped him.

He said: “The biggest reason why my father refused to accept the Huayan Kingdom back then was probably because the country was not powerful enough to protect the people of the Huayan Kingdom. On the other hand, the envoy of the Huayan Kingdom said that it was a vassal state. This was a separate country. In the eyes of the court, It is tantamount to rebellion. I know the temper of the late emperor, so he would not agree to it.”

Fiji

nodded, “Exactly, but the late emperor didn’t want to lose face at the time, so he didn’t say anything.”

“But today is different from the past. Now that I have defeated the Goryeo and Japanese countries, it is natural for the navy to go south to drive away the Spaniards. However, I will only save my own people, not the people of Huayan Kingdom. There is something you said Yes, no matter where you are, if you have the blood of Dayu people in your veins, you are a Dayu person. But there is one thing. I will not save those who are wearing the skin of Dayu people, but I am ready to take a bite of people from Dayu country at any time. “

He comes from contemporary times and naturally knows that there is such a country established by Chinese in Nanyang, but this country is the most anti-China. He has learned from the past and learned from the future. He does not want his soldiers to shed blood, sweat and tears but raise a white-eyed wolf.

“What does the emperor mean by this?” Xiao Qi heard that Xiao Ming seemed to be referring to something, but she didn’t know what it meant.

Looking at each other at Fiji, Xiao Ming said: “From today on, the Great Chongqing State recognizes that all overseas Chinese are Great Chongqing people. No matter where, where or when the Great Chongqing people are bullied by the Yi and Di, they are all in the Great Chongqing State.” It is the duty to uphold justice and protect his life and property. “

When Xiao Qi heard this, blood surged in his heart. He said gratefully, “Your Majesty, Your Majesty.”

Xiao Ming rolled his eyes and smiled. Said: “There is no need for the Huayan Kingdom to exist. How about we call it the Huayan Province of the Great Chongqing from now on.”

PS: I feel a little broken. Let’s do a chapter tonight.
