Steel Dynasty - Chapter 956

[Chapter 951 Dawn Attack]

“Good news, what good news!”

Zhang Xian grabbed Yue Yun’s arm excitedly. Life in Yizhou was as ordinary as water, and a little disturbance was enough for him to look forward to.

“It is said that the Minerals Department attaches great importance to the minerals in Yizhou and will come to explore soon. If the mine is found, a group of people will be transported from Japan to mine soon.”

“Mining? This is indeed good news.” Zhang Xian happily Pacing back and forth, it seemed to him that the construction of the mine included many ancillary projects, the most important of which was the road.

If the imperial court wants to open mining in Yizhou, then roads must be built here. If roads are built, cement factories and brick factories will be built accordingly, and Yizhou will be really lively by then.

“Do you know what minerals the Minerals Department is going to mine?” Zhang Xian asked again.

After thinking for a while, he said: “This is no longer a secret in Qingzhou, and you are really not well informed. The Minerals Department said that the minerals in Yizhou are mainly coal, sulfur, gold, and copper. It is said that the coal is mainly in the north, and this gold And copper is mainly found in the northeast from the central mountain range to the coast, but the people from the Minerals Department said that you are particularly rich in sulfur in these minerals

. Some people brought a basket of sulfur to sell, it turned out to be like this, not bad, not bad.” Zhang Xian was delighted.

Yue Yun continued: “That’s not all. Before we captured Yizhou, the Spaniards had just landed in the north of Yizhou and were later repelled by the Dutch. Now that the cooperation between Dayu and the Netherlands is getting deeper and deeper, they finally said To tell the truth, it turns out that Spain discovered open-air gold veins in the north. This place was called Jinguashi by the Spanish. It is said that the gold mines are very rich. Originally, the Dutch wanted to mine it themselves after driving Spain away, but we did not expect that we captured it. “Yizhou.

” Zhang Xian felt his heart beating faster and faster, “Wonderful, really wonderful.”

After eating the sugar cane, Yue Yun stretched himself and ordered the general. After returning to the city of Relanje and resting for four more days, the warships of the Great Chongqing slowly headed towards Bohol Island.

…

Bohol Island, the Spanish Governor’s Palace, Miel is reading the war report about the Huayan Kingdom. After this period of massacre, more than 17,000 people from the Huayan Kingdom died under their guns, and another 3,000 People hid in the mountains.

“Your Majesty the Governor, the Huayan Kingdom has basically been destroyed. This time we seized a total of 7 million taels of silver and 500,000 taels of gold from the Huayan Kingdom.”

The lieutenant in charge of the operation reported with a cruel smile.

“Well done, Joseph, these bastards actually stole so much money from us under our noses. I should have killed them all earlier.” Miel said coldly. For him, the battle report Their lives are just a number to him, because in his eyes, these natives are not human beings at all.

Joseph complimented: “Your Excellency the Governor is too far-sighted. I have ordered people to send the confiscated silver, gold, jewelry and porcelain to His Excellency the Governor’s private warehouse. These things can be shipped back to Spain in a week.”

Miel Station Standing up, he excitedly patted Joseph on the shoulder and said, “You are really a smart man. I always like to work with smart people. My term as governor is about to expire. I will recommend you to become the new governor here.”

“Thank you, Your Majesty the Governor.” Joseph said excitedly, this was exactly what he had dreamed of.

He then flattered: “Your Majesty the Governor, I have left a few beautiful girls from the Chongqing Kingdom to serve you. These people deserve to die. It is their luck to keep their lives to serve the Governor.”

“Who says it’s not the case? ?It is their honor for these bitches to serve our noble Spaniards,” Miel said with a cruel smile.

Joseph glanced at Miel carefully. He was very aware of the cruelty of the governor.

In fact, the person who can be sent to Bohol as the governor must be a cruel and cruel person, because remote overseas colonies are usually places of exile for domestic prisoners.

It is as if Australia were an overseas prison for the British and Indochina an overseas prison for the French, and the governor-general was the overseer of these places of exile.

Without a cold heart, how could he subdue these rebellious prisoners?

Mi Er had planned this massacre of Huayan Country for a long time. In his opinion, Mi Er just wanted to make another fortune before leaving office.

But he was smart and took full advantage of Spain’s current dissatisfaction with the Great Chongqing, because the Dutch became increasingly powerful after cooperating with the Great Chongqing, which made them feel uneasy.

With Mi Er’s help, the country finally gave Mi Er the right to handle all affairs here, and the massacre against the Huayan Kingdom began.

Of course, he has no sympathy for these Huayan people. The killing of indigenous people is a common thing in Europe. Who makes them an inferior race in the eyes of Europeans?

“Your Majesty the Governor, I won’t disturb you anymore. Please enjoy it slowly.” Joseph saluted.

Miel waved his hand and signaled Joseph to leave. At this time, night fell and he was going back to enjoy his delicious food.

at the same time.

The combined fleet led by Yue Yun and Eric has arrived a hundred nautical miles away from Bohol Island. According to their plan, they will suddenly launch an attack on the Spanish fleet in the early morning of the next day.

In this battle, they will completely destroy the Spanish fleet in Asia and wipe out the Spanish colonists locally.

Taking advantage of the cover of night, Yue Yun and Eric let the crew take turns to rest on duty. At this time, the dark color became their protective color.

They did not encounter any obstacles during the all-night voyage. The next day, when the coastline turned white, they appeared at the Spanish Naval Port in Bohol.

“Get into battle formation and seize the advantageous position.” Yue Yun issued the military order.

After his words fell, the leading steamship used its own power to quickly blockade the Spanish port, and at the same time aimed its side at the Spanish warship in the port.

Eric also ordered warships to cooperate with Great Yu in fighting, but their warships seemed too clumsy in front of these flexible warships.

The sudden appearance of the huge fleet in front of them made the Spanish soldiers on guard almost crazy, and they blew their whistles urgently.

The Spanish soldiers on the battleship heard the sound and quickly entered the fighting position, but their speed was too slow. By the time they adjusted the hull, it was already too late.

With a roar, the battleships on the opposite side opened fire intensively.

“Boom boom boom…”

In the continuous explosions, the first concentrated warship exploded like popcorn in an instant.

Eric was dumbfounded, his heart felt as if someone had pinched him. Now he finally realized the gap between the Dutch warships and the Chongqing warships.
