Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    The Macau Treaty was still signed, and there was no choice.

    Spain is at war with the Netherlands, Portugal has been fighting for independence, and the Governor of Macau is caught in a dilemma.

    Zhao Han's allowing the autonomy of foreign residential areas is the last face left for the governor and the parliament.  Once the face is torn apart, I am afraid that even the residential area will be lost. What should the more than 2,000 Portuguese and Spaniards on the island do?

    "One, two, three, bump!"

    "One, two, three, bump!"

    "Boom!"

    The Macau boundary wall built by the Portuguese was not yet completed at this time, and sections were torn down.

    The place Daming leased to Portugal was not the entire Macau Island, but a small piece of the island.  The church built by Portugal across the border was demolished many times by the Ming government, and only the cannon factory remained.

    Although Zhao Han allowed the inhabited area to be autonomous, it was limited to the inhabited area, and the boundary wall encloses a large area of ??the countryside.

    Gan Dashou, the magistrate of Xiangshan County, personally brought the officials and came to distribute the land to the Han people on the island.

    Some local officials knocked on the gong and shouted: "Come and register and register. If you get your household registration, you will be issued a land deed. If you don't have a land deed, your private land will be confiscated! As long as you get your household registration, you won't be afraid of being bullied by Francois!"

    Eight forts have been built in Macao, and another fort is under construction. There are more than 60 fixed coastal defense guns and 20 field artillery.

    Fei Ruhe personally led the troops to receive the forts and cannons.

    After taking out the treaty, everything went well, and the fort was soon in Fei Ruhe's hands.

    "Stop, this is a Portuguese gun factory. What you are doing is robbery! The "Macau Treaty" does not specify the ownership of the gun factory, so you can't take it away at will!" Councilman Mascar stopped at the gate of the gun factory.

    Tu Tingye said to the interpreter: "Tell him, I am Tu Tingye, the inspector of the Macau Inspection Department, and I will be in charge of the security of Macau from now on. The Bucarao Cannon Factory is a building that crosses the border and must be taken back. The Macau Council can only manage residential areas.  ! Raise the gun!"

    Three hundred firecrackers were raised in unison.

    Seeing that the opponent still didn't move away, Tu Tingye shouted again: "Light the match!"

    Ma Shijia was so scared that he immediately moved away, and said angrily: "War, you are going to start a war!"

    The Bugarao Cannon Foundry claims to be the best cannon factory in the Far East. Not only does it sell well in Asia, it can even be sold back to Europe.

    The "Shenwei General Cannon" of the Beijing Tower was produced in the Bucarao Cannon Foundry in Macau.

    Tu Tingye sneered: "Go in and talk to them."

    Wang Shengtai walked into the Cannon Factory with more than a dozen apprentices and said: "From now on, the Bucarao Cannon Factory will be renamed Macau Cannon Factory. I am the supervisor of the Cannon Factory. Your salary will remain the same. If you can  Improve the craftsmanship, or cast high-quality cannons, and you can get rewards."

    A man who looked like a craftsman and a boss came over and said to Wang Shengtai: "I am Wendis Bogarao, this artillery factory was opened by my grandfather. I want to ask, I still have 15% of the shares,  Are these shares also taken away?"

    "You can stay," Wang Shengtai replied, "as long as you have extraordinary casting skills, I will leave you 1% of dry shares. You can only pay dividends, you cannot participate in management, and you cannot leave it to your descendants.  Void."

    Wendis Bugarao said angrily: "You guys are robbery!"

    Wang Shengtai sneered and said: "Then let me answer you, the Cannon Factory is not a leased land. Your grandfather crossed the concession and forcibly occupied the villagers' land. What kind of behavior is this? A robber! I will leave you 1% dry shares, which is already very  I've given you some face. If it wasn't for the order of the chief town, I'd expel you directly! Either take 1% of the dry shares and continue to make cannons, or leave the cannon factory immediately!"

    Wendis Bogarao was silent, accepting this reality slumped.

    The whole of Macau, as well as the Cannon Foundry, have already been seriously injured because of the previous war.

    That battle was fought in Shandong.

    In the third year of Chongzhen, the Portuguese artillery team from Macau arrived in Beijing.  The annual salary of the leader is 150 taels, with a monthly subsidy of 15 taels; the annual salary of ordinary gunners is 100 taels, with a monthly subsidy of 10 taels.  They not only trained gunners of the Ming army, but also went to Liaodong to fight. At the Dengzhou cannon casting base, they adopted the barrel cold casting technology to triple the range of the Hongyi cannon.

    Due to the high wages, Portuguese gunners and cannon-casting craftsmen kept going from Macau to Dengzhou, and they were so full of fighting in Pidao that they dared not go to sea again.

    In the fifth year of Chongzhen, Kong Youde rebelled and led troops to besiege Dengzhou.  Due to Geng Zhongming's betrayal, Dengzhou City Gate fell.

    The Ming army either died or surrendered, and the Portuguese artillery team was isolated and helpless, still sticking to the artillery position to fight.

    The artillery team under Kong Youde was taught by the Portuguese.

    The apprentice beats the master.

    40 PortugueseWell, the civilians also fought.

    There is no need for the Chinese to take action at all, Macau itself can play the dog's brains.

    "General, Dafo Langji (Portugal) can't hold on anymore." The translator reminded.

    Fei Ruhe immediately shouted: "Kill!"

    "Bang bang bang bang!"

    Not long after, Spain was flanked by China and Portugal, and quickly collapsed to surrender.

    Fei Ruhe was about to receive the prisoners, when he saw the Portuguese guards suddenly opened fire at close range, killing one-third of the Spanish troops.

    The two sides fought again, and Fei Ruhe didn't bother to intervene.

    Julio, the commander of the guard, was shot down unwillingly, and countless Spanish soldiers fled towards the sea.

    At the same time, the Portuguese priests were expelling the Spanish priests, the Portuguese civilians were expelling the Spanish civilians, and the Macao Council was expelling officials from the Governor's Office.

    ?Governor Paulo Shi was driven to the pier. Speaker Hua Liya said sharply: "Go back to the Philippines immediately, and you are not allowed to set foot on the land of Macau!"

    A large number of Spanish officials, priests and civilians boarded the ship, cursing or crying.

    Especially civilians, they leave with only one suit of clothes on, and all their property is deprived. How can a family live in the Philippines?

    "Wonderful, so wonderful." Fei Ruhe couldn't help but sigh with emotion.

    Speaker Hua Liya ordered the guards to be disbanded, handed all the muskets to Fei Ruhe, and said: "Please abide by the treaty, and don't interfere in the affairs of the inhabited area in the future."

    "We always keep our promises." Fei Ruhe smiled.
