Han Siwen and Wang Hua both tacitly understood the danger of people like Hong Chengchou, but they were not too worried about what Hong Chengchou would do to them!
Because even though Hong Chengchou was a foreign governor and controlled the military and political affairs of Manila, no matter how powerful he was, he could not control the guards!
"By the way! What happened to those foreign captives?" Han Siwen thought of business and quickly grabbed Wang Hua and asked!
"I was asked to work in the farmland we opened. Anyway, they are slaves in our hands. If they don't work, will we keep them in vain?" Wang Hua said matter-of-factly!
"As long as you don't kill him!" Han Siwen finally breathed a sigh of relief!
"Zhang Quanwu, take He Nanyang to pick among the prisoners and find more useful people!" Han Siwen turned to Zhang Quanwu happily and shouted!
"Yes!" Zhang Quanwu stood at attention and saluted, then took He Nanyang and left!
"What's wrong? What else can those foreigners do besides work?" Wang Hua looked at Han Siwen in confusion and asked!
"You are usually smart, but why are you so stupid now?" Han Siwen rolled his eyes at Wang Hua and said, "Why is our Guards Navy developing so slowly? Isn't it because we can't find people who are familiar with ocean navigation? Then They have been helping foreigners traverse the world for two or three hundred years, but they are the best navy instructors. If you let them do farm work, wouldn't it be a waste of resources?"
"Oops!" Wang Hua slapped his thigh and said angrily: "Why didn't I think of this? Send more people over quickly to help Zhang Quanwu and the others select some people. Even if they are not selected, don't let them do farm work. Concentrate. Get up and ask them to speak human language. Once they learn how to speak, ask for an order to transform them into the Imperial Association Army!"
Because the Nanjing Fleet trains near Manila all year round, in order to reduce logistical pressure, the Governor-General of Manila specially approved a thousand acres of land for the Nanjing Fleet to cultivate!
Usually this field is cultivated by Japanese slaves and indigenous slaves, but now there are twenty households of Japanese slaves and more than 2,700 foreign slaves working non-stop!
The leader of these foreigners is, of course, the commander of the Dutch fleet, General Van Pel. The others are Spanish and Dutch fleet officers and soldiers, as well as European businessmen who plan to take advantage!
After these guys were defeated and captured, they thought that the people of the Ming Dynasty would let them pay to redeem themselves, but they had no intention of doing so. Instead, they took them to work in the farmland!
Originally, these people were unwilling, but when the Japanese slaves executed more than 500 indigenous slaves in front of them, all the foreigners became honest!
Under the command of the Japanese slaves, these guys carefully guarded thousands of acres of farmland. Because there were too many prisoners, the Japanese slaves forced them to open up wasteland and expand the planting area!
It can be said that these European robbers who traveled across the sea finally lived a small life of working at sunrise and resting at sunset under the coercion of the Japanese slaves!
The only drawback of such a small life is that the Japanese slaves don¡¯t like to feed them well, and often use whips to carry out colorful entertainment activities on them!
When Zhang Quanwu and He Nanyang arrived, a few stocky Japanese slaves were whipping a few foreign slaves, while more than two thousand foreign slaves were wearing handcuffs and shackles, weeding and pulling weeds in the waist-high rice fields!
Although these rice fields are already very clean, the Japanese slaves still force these people to line up in rows and inspect the rice one by one!
Although there are only twenty households of Japanese slaves in a thousand acres of land, each of them has seven or eight men. With such a large field, they can manage more than 2,700 slaves with ease!
A Japanese slave in his forties, only as tall as Zhang Quanwu's chest, was vigorously beating the foreigners. Suddenly he saw Zhang Quanwu approaching, and his face immediately changed. He ran to Zhang Quanwu respectfully, knelt down and kowtowed. !
"My dear, please give my regards to the master! I wonder what the master's orders are?" the Japanese slave said in blunt Chinese!
"Get up! Call those foreigners over!" Zhang Quanwu ordered directly without even looking at him!
"Yes!" The Japanese slave immediately responded, then got up and ran to ask people to gather all the foreigners!
Soon, under the whips of the Japanese slaves, all the foreign prisoners were gathered together. They looked at Zhang Quanwu, He Nanyang, and the more than a hundred soldiers with guns and ammunition behind them with anxious eyes, not knowing what would happen next. What fate awaits them!
When Zhang Quanwu saw that everyone had been brought over, he shouted in Spanish: "All captains, first mates, and gunners, please stand up!"
There was chaos in the crowd at first, but soon a man with unshaven beard and sunken eyes came out and asked in Spanish: "Sir, do you want us to stand up and do something?"What? Do you want to put us to death? "
When He Nanyang saw this man, he had a look of astonishment on his face. He stepped forward and saluted: "General Van Peer, why are you here? As a general, shouldn't you be given preferential treatment?"
General Van Perl also recognized He Nanyang. Although he didn't know why Commander Alfonso's adjutant was with Akito and seemed to be doing well, he could only smile bitterly and said: "It turns out that He Nanyang is Mr. Se, it seems that Commander Alfonso has not abandoned us!"
General Van Perl¡¯s words were very ironic, which made He Nanyang¡¯s face feel hot, but he still said: ¡°We suffered a devastating blow, and Commander Alfonso also became a prisoner of the Ming Dynasty!¡±
General Van Perl shrugged and said: "This is no longer important, but I think you lived well in the hands of the Ming people, but we are unlucky. In the eyes of the Ming people, we are just like those barbarians, there is no difference between nobility and lowliness. They will not hesitate to enslave us, whip us, or even kill us. I feel very lucky to be alive to see you!"
He Nanyang said quickly: "Believe me, General Van Perl, your destiny is about to change. The commander of the Ming fleet needs a large number of naval instructors. This time we are here to select capable people to serve as instructors in the Ming navy! "
He Nanyang did not deliberately avoid it when he said these words, so many people heard what he said, and the originally lifeless crowd immediately became excited!
"I am a captain and have rich sailing experience!"
¡°I am the best gunner in the world and can hit the target from two nautical miles away!¡±
"I am proficient in calculations and can quickly calculate the position of a ship through the annular corona!"
Facing the shouting crowd, Zhang Quanwu seemed a little impatient. He glanced at the Japanese slave next to him. The Japanese slave immediately understood, bowed and shouted at the other Japanese slaves!
"Hai!" All the Japanese slaves responded in unison, and then pulled out the Japanese sword from their waists!
"You bastard! You dare to be so rude in front of adults, it's so embarrassing!" The Japanese slave shouted, and then slashed at the foreign man who was too far away!
But this Japanese slave was very measured. When he struck people, he used the back of the knife, so no one was killed. The other Japanese slaves also followed suit and used the back of the knife to teach those foreigners a lesson!
Although many foreigners were slashed with their skins torn and bloody, those foreigners seemed to have forgotten to resist. They just squeezed into the crowd desperately, hoping to use the bodies of their companions to block the back of the incoming knife!
Zhang Quanwu waved his hand when he saw that the Japanese slaves had suppressed the foreign slaves with bullets. The Japanese slaves immediately stopped what they were doing, put the Japanese swords into their scabbards, and stepped aside after Zhang Quanwu's luggage!
Zhang Quanwu then shouted to the foreigners: "I say it again, the captain, first mate, and gunner are out in line. If anyone else dares to talk nonsense again, they will be pulled out and executed!"
Zhang Quanwu¡¯s words are still very shocking. As expected, the foreigners below have become quiet. They will only look at Zhang Quanwu with longing eyes!
As Zhang Quanwu¡¯s words fell, more than 800 people walked out of the crowd. These people walked to the side, consciously lined up, and looked at Zhang Quanwu with hope!
"God! I have seen this kind of scene before." He Nanyang covered his face and lamented: "Those black slaves who were brought out of Africa were selected by their masters in this way. Who would have thought that this kind of thing would happen to white people one day? ?¡±
After hearing what He Nanyang said, the smiles on the faces of those foreign men who stood up gradually disappeared. Only then did he realize that they had unknowingly treated themselves as slaves!
Zhang Quanwu didn't understand He Nanyang's mood. In his opinion, except for the people of the Ming Dynasty, other races, whether nobles or civilians, as long as they fell into his hands on the battlefield, they would have only one title - slaves! (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
