Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Aceh, the lower reaches of Palembang City, the mouth of the Musi River.

    There is a port town here, and the surrounding residents are all Han Chinese and mixed descendants of Han Chinese.  No aborigines could be found, and even if there were aborigines, they had already learned to speak Chinese, and their clothing and customs remained the same as those in the early Ming Dynasty.

    ? The highest official who rules this place is the chief of the clan.

    Moreover, the father died and the son succeeded, or the father died and the daughter succeeded, the surname has been Shi for more than two hundred years.

    There are four people in the room.

    Shi Cunzhang took out a camphor wood box, he took out a key, and the other three also took out their keys.

    Open all four locks.

    ? Shi Cunzhang carefully held out the copper seal, on which the inscription was "Seal of the Propaganda and Consolation Envoy of the Old Port of the Ming Dynasty".  Below the copper seal is the imperial edict of the Ming Dynasty conferring on the Old Port Propaganda Envoy, as well as the documents of the Consolation Envoy issued by the Ministry of Officials of the Ming Dynasty.

    Shi Cunzhang held the copper seal and said: "For three hundred years, the four surnames Shi, Chen, Liang, and Qiu have thrived in Jiugang. Our territory should be the entire Jiugang, not this small town by the sea. I am the head of the Shi family.  , It should be the consolation envoy of the old port of Ming Dynasty, not the governor of Aceh. Now, the old port has been renamed Palembang, and it has been stolen by those natives for hundreds of years. It's time to take it back!"

    Chen Sanwei doubted: "Da Ming is gone, will Datong Xinchao help us?"

    "It will definitely!" Qiu Fang said, "Last year, China defeated the Netherlands in a naval battle, and recently attacked Malacca. Now, His Majesty the Emperor, is determined to be a talented and bold generation. We should follow the example of our ancestors, raise troops to seize the old port, and present land to the emperor as a vassal."  !"

    ?Liang Yutian said: "Yes, seize the old port, and serve as a vassal!"

    Shi Cunzhang asked: "The Chen family is unwilling to raise troops?"

    Chen Sanwei said: "If you don't want to raise an army, what am I going to do today? But you must be cautious about raising an army. It's best to contact the Chinese envoy first."

    Qiu Fang said: "The noble envoy of the Celestial Dynasty may have a lot of doubts. Why don't you raise troops and communicate with each other at the same time, make cooked rice with raw rice, and don't want to give him merit for nothing?"

    Chen Sanwei also said: "Over the old port, Aceh's city is easy to attack. But the Dutch castle outside the city is very strong. Should we attack the old port city first, or the Dutch castle first?"

    Liang Yutian smiled and said: "It's not that we haven't been to the Old Port. The Dutch castle outside the city has long since lost the morale of the army. If we want to fight, we should fight together, catch them by surprise, and take them down in one fell swoop!"

    This is the easternmost part of Sumatra Island. Banten has a piece of land, and the rest is the territory of Aceh.

    The country of Aceh once expanded wildly, but after bordering the country of Banten, it stopped expanding.  The two countries fought a few battles, regardless of the outcome, so they simply stopped fighting and developed in other directions.

    Therefore, although the old port is considered a border city, after many years of cessation of troops, the Aceh defenders here have not fought.  Neither the nobles nor the soldiers had any vigilance, and a sudden attack could easily take the city down.

    There is a Dutch castle outside the city.

    The Netherlands and Aceh are allies, protected by the Aceh army, and the Netherlands has very few troops stationed there.  Throughout Palembang, the Dutch East India Company only sent

    3 civil servants and 2 soldiers are responsible for purchasing the special taxi products here and transporting them to the seaport through the Musi River, but the seaport is in the hands of the Han people.

    The history of the Han people occupying the harbor is longer than the history of the Qi State, which can be traced back to the era of the Majapahit State!

    Before the Majapahit Kingdom, the Han even controlled Palembang City.  At that time, it was still under the rule of Sanfoqi. The Manjaboyi Kingdom destroyed Sanfoqi and came to attack Palembang City. The Han people were defeated, so they gave up Palembang and moved to live by the sea.

    Then, the Danmu Kingdom destroyed Majapahit, and the Danmu Kingdom split and perished again, becoming the Wandan Kingdom and the Matalan Kingdom.  On the Palembang side, Aceh took the opportunity to occupy it.

    In other words, when the Han people ruled here,

    What Aceh, Banten, Matalam, Danmuall have not been established yet.

    As early as the early Ming Dynasty, there were tens of thousands of Han Chinese living in Palembang, most of whom fled from the troubled times at the end of the Yuan Dynasty!

    A few days later, the four major surnames called the tribe, and the other minor surnames were also called.

    On the high platform.

    Shi Cunzhang took out the bronze seal, drew his sword and shouted: "I am the consolation envoy of the old port of China, not the chief of Aceh! The old port is the old port, not Laoshizijugang, which was changed by the barbarians of the country. What is the name of Manjapahit?"  , what Danmu country, and the current Aceh country are all foreign invaders"

    "The Sultan of Aceh is tyrannical, cruel, and exploitative! The Han compatriots in and around the old port city were taxed heavily more than ten years ago, and the tax was getting heavier and heavier! On our Xingang side, the amount of tax we need to pay every year is also increasing.  Set higher. And damn the Dutchman, fourteen yearsA Dutchman was brought before Shi Cunzhang.

    Shi Cunzhang grinned grinningly and said: "Cut them all, leave no one behind, and take over the castle and goods!"

    These Dutch people were also unlucky. Aceh officials in Palembang City, at least someone tipped off the news, and received the news that the rebels were killing them ten miles away.  The Dutch in Hexinzhou Castle seldom leave, and they didn't find out until the rebel army killed them a mile away.  uu reading <a href="http://www.uukanshu.com" target="_blank">www.uukanshu.com</a>

    The Han uprising army continued to advance, and Palembang City was already heavily guarded.

    After the Aceh Kingdom formed an alliance with the Netherlands, it bought a lot of guns and artillery, which is one of the reasons why it can expand wildly.  At this moment, there are one thousand defenders in the city, two hundred of them have muskets, and there are eight fire cannons in the city.

    Shi Cunzhang is not worried about this. He didn't dare to raise troops before, because he couldn't stop Aceh's follow-up attack.  Once Palembang is gone, the Sultan of Aceh will definitely send a large army to take it back, and the Han people here will not be able to carry it back.

    But now they are not afraid, they can contact the Chinese army!

    Shi Cunzhang pointed to Palembang City in front of him, and shouted excitedly: "That city was built by our ancestors. Our ancestors were once the masters of the city. Now let me take it back!"

    Can't wait to get together at night, because the city is already in chaos.

    There are many Han merchants in the city, all of whom come from the four major Han surnames.  The officials and soldiers of Aceh, fearing that the Han businessmen would take the opportunity to make trouble, wanted to preemptively attack the Han people's shops and residences.

    The most nonsense are those Aceh soldiers.  The rebels outside the city are about to kill them, and they are still burning, killing and looting in the city. The target is nothing more than the wealth in the hands of the Han people!

    There are already hundreds of rebels lurking in the city, and Han merchants have already contacted them.

    The atrocities committed by Aceh soldiers made the actions of the rebels in the city smoother, and the Han civilians were forced to stand on the side of the rebels, otherwise they would not even be able to save their lives.

    "Siege!"
