"Translation!" Wang Rulong used his demon-killing eyes to angrily glare at the interpreter and shouted: "If you dare to say a word of nonsense, you will be killed!"
"Yes, yes." The interpreter was so frightened that his spine trembled, and he hurriedly stammered to translate.
After he finished translating, the leading Portuguese still looked dissatisfied and said: "You have already made grudges with the Japanese, do you still want to make grudges with our Portuguese navy?!"
"There is an old saying in the Ming Dynasty that it is better to dissolve enemies than to marry them. Believe me, maintaining friendship with us is crucial to the safety of your sea routes!" Another Portuguese even threatened: "You know, like the Governor of Goa, We have a hundred of these large sailing ships in Asia! We can sail into Dagukou if necessary!"
¡°Obviously, these Portuguese people want to eat shit, and it¡¯s not just a day or two.
It¡¯s a good thing they didn¡¯t say this, but once they did, it immediately brought back Mr. Zhao¡¯s very bad memories.
"Then come!" Zhao Hao stood up suddenly, stepped on the Grand Master's chair, and said angrily: "Decades ago, you invaded our Tuen Mun and Sai Cao Wan and came back defeated. This time I will let you I will crush you in the sand and drive you out of Haojingao!"
Then he pointed at the Portuguese who threatened to march to Dagukou and shouted: "Get him!"
Two burly guards stepped forward and instantly pushed him to the ground, tying his hands behind his back with cowhide ropes like lightning.
"I pronounce the verdict in the name of the Commander-in-Chief of the Ming Dynasty Royal Tamluo Guard District. You insulted the Ming Emperor and threatened the security of the Ming Dynasty. You were found guilty of disrespect and conspiracy. You will be punished for both crimes and sentenced to life-long hard labor without the possibility of parole!"
Mr. Zhao pronounced the sentence on the spot. In fact, he wanted to beat the red-haired ghost severely to vent his resentment But he had already announced that the physical punishment would be cancelled. If you go back on your word, is that spanking someone else? That was a slap in the mouth to himself.
"Ah" The interpreter was startled, thinking that he would have to serve a lifetime of hard labor? He stammered hurriedly: "Father-in-law, young master, the two countries are at war, why don't you kill the envoys?"
"You dare to insult me?" Mr. Zhao sneered and said, "I'll sentence you to three years of hard laboroh no, seven years! I'll sentence you to four more years because you forgot which country you are from!"
"I am a citizen of the world" The interpreter collapsed to the ground.
??~~
Because Mr. Zhao needed someone to report the news, the remaining Portuguese leader was lucky enough to escape.
Seemingly worried that the frightened Erbai Wu would not be able to fully convey what he meant, Zhao Hao wrote another letter of challenge and asked him to take it back.
On board the Duke of Goa, Father Torres can speak Chinese and recognize Chinese characters. How could the Jesuits not master the common Chinese dialect when they came to East Asia to preach?
He then translated the letter of war to Colonel Pinto and said:
"You Francois are indeed known for your strong ships and powerful guns, but you have never faced attacks from so many cannons - my warship has five hundred of the latest bronze heavy cannons, and the rate of fire is twice as high as yours. .Although you have two huge warships, in my eyes, your warships are worthless. Our Ming Dynasty's Wanhuo Wuwei ship is the most outstanding! Not to mention that my number is more than ten times that of yours. . Once my cannon fires, your warship will be shattered and collapsed, and I won¡¯t even have to lose a single soldier."
After a pause, the old priest turned the page and continued:
"But since you are willing to negotiate, I will generously give you an opportunity - as long as you surrender before dawn tomorrow and leave Japan immediately, I guarantee the safety of your personal and property. Otherwise, after sunrise, thousands of cannons will fire , destroyed, you will turn into skeletons in a sunken ship. Written in black and white, as evidence Zhao, Chairman of the Ming Dynasty Royal Shipping Corporation."
"Arrogant!" Captain Pinto sneered after hearing this: "Since you are so contemptuous of us, why don't the Ming warships just attack us directly and why are they only anchored at the mouth of the bay?"
"They are naturally wary." Although he has boarded this kind of Karak sailing ship countless times, Father Torres feels that it is a miracle every time. It was the Lord who gave these faithful shepherds the most powerful missionary weapon.
¡°Who wouldn¡¯t be timid in the face of such a great Duke of Goa?¡±
"Yes, praise God." Pinto smiled and nodded. I don¡¯t know if the domination effect worked, but he regained a lot of confidence and said: "In the Indian Ocean and the South China Sea, we have won a great victory with outnumbered enemies countless times. This time is definitely no exception!"
"Then Colonel, shall we reject him?" the adjutant asked for instructions: "And launch a knight challenge?"
"No, no, no, my little Lucas." Pinto shook his head repeatedly. He straightened his diaperoh no, it's 'Cotopes'. He just found out that he had removed it when he was climbing the pole.p; "Then we need to strengthen our vigilance." Ma Yinglong asked hurriedly: "When will they launch their attack?"
"It's very simple, just watch the wind." Wang Rulong saw through Pintuo's spleen and lungs at a glance: "If the northeast wind blows tonight, this guy will definitely take risks. Stressing that we are not allowed to attack at night is a guilty conscience without knowing it. !¡±
"Well, that makes sense." Zhao Hao took a sip of the pumpkin milk soup, nodded in agreement and said, "It seems that no matter how much the kid jumps, he can't jump out of the palm of the King of Hell. I'll leave it to Brother Wang tonight."
"Don't worry, young master!" Wang Rulong clapped his chest and said, "If they are allowed to escape from Futian Bay, I will come and see them!"
