    When Tang Baolu finished speaking, he clearly saw many people quietly moving the baggage on their shoulders behind their backs.

    ¡®It¡¯s a good thing that you still know how to save face.  ¡¯ He muttered in his heart, wanting to reward himself with a piece of candy.  But using both hands and mouth in public would be too detrimental to the glorious image he had just established.

    Ximen Qing peeled a piece of orange candy and handed it to him. Tang Baolu smiled coquettishly, took it and threw it into his mouth.

    "I'm sorry." He said vaguely.

    "That's right." Ximen Qing turned a deaf ear and clapped his hands and said, "I hope they can listen."

    "Young Master said that you have to decide your own destiny after all. We have done everything we can, but in the end, they still have to pass this test by themselves." Tang Baolu narrowed his eyes slightly, eating candy made him really happy.

    While the two were talking, they saw Chen Mei, the president of the Luzon Chamber of Commerce, standing on the collapsed door of his house.

    Chen Mei looked around at the dense crowd of overseas Chinese, and the overseas Chinese also looked at their president.

    "Everyone" Chen Mei saw that everyone was disheveled and many were injured, and she almost choked and couldn't speak.

    But he still adjusted his mood, calmed down, and said slowly: "It is indeed the red-haired ghost who caused everyone to end up in this situation. Now that they are doing this again, what kind of good intentions can they have? Although I don't know,  What tricks do they have, but as long as I can remember, my father has always taught me, 'You only trust people once, and you will trust them again'!"

    After a pause, Chen Mei pointed at Tang Baolu and Ximen Qing and said: "But Director Tang, Ximen Senior Officials, and so many brothers from the Nanhai Group have been working hard for us these days. Without their leadership, we would have been defeated long ago.  We have burned, killed and looted so many times. They are the real brothers who live and die with us! Everyone, please think carefully about what Director Tang said. Don't say, "If people lead you, you can't move, but ghosts can lead you away"!  "

    "Well, President, we listen to you" Many people who had already decided to leave were first shaken by Tang Baolu's words, and then completely changed their minds by Chen Mei's words.  "We stay and live and die together with everyone!"

    "I'm not leaving"

    "Yes, I'm not leaving"

    Seeing more and more voices changing their minds, Lin A became anxious.  The law does not blame the masses, but it does blame the few, and even more so the one who takes the lead.

    If there are too few people leaving, it¡¯s not just an ugly problem.  In the future, he won't be what everyone points out and will be ashamed of himself?

    He had to say loudly: "The president is right, but what if the reinforcements don't come after two days?"

    "That's right." One of his people immediately echoed: "In this season, it is a typhoon and a rainy season. How can any ship go south from the country? Even if there are reinforcements, I don't know if they will arrive in the year of the monkey and the month of the horse."

    "Anyone who shakes the morale of the army should be beheaded!" The grumpy Second Master Gao shouted and was about to chop people with a knife.

    The people on Lin Afa's side were on guard this time and quickly raised their spears to block it.

    Seeing that the Fuqing guy was about to get into a fight with the Putian guy, Chen Mei gave a loud shout, stopped both parties and said, "Both stop it!"

    Then he loudly said to everyone: "As I said before, I believe in Director Tang and Ximen officials who live and die with us! As for those who don't believe, I won't force them to stay! Well, the ship is here,  If you want to leave, please feel free to leave!"

    "Let's go!" Lin Afa immediately took his relatives and turned around to leave.  But there were also many Putian guys who hesitated and did not follow.

    "Master Zhao told me personally that whenever we encounter danger, even if we are at the end of the world, he will rush there as quickly as possible! Master Zhao is our great benefactor in Chaozhou Prefecture! It's fine if others don't believe him, we definitely don't believe it.  Him!" Liu Xuesheng shouted hoarsely and tried his best: "We can't just be deserters! Otherwise, we will bring shame to our ancestors, and the ashes jar will not be able to enter the ancestors' graves!"

    His efforts were not in vain. In the end, only a dozen Chaoshan businessmen, with their families and more than 100 people, paid the money to board the ship.

    Over at the Zhangzhou Gang, everyone saw that Mr. Huang San was unwilling to move, so they hurriedly asked in a low voice: "Old man, why don't you leave?"

    Huang Sanlao Zhang shook his head dejectedly and said: "Forget it, you go, I'm already at this age. I don't want anyone to poke my spine again"

    ?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????OUTOUT?We are young enough to be poked in the spine?

    "You are not afraid of old age anymore, what should we be afraid of?" Everyone in the Zhangzhou Gang left without shame.

    "Actually, the old man is very timid. He has always been afraid of this and that. But I listened to what Director Tang and Chairman Chen said just now." Seeing everyone shaken, Huang Sanlao Zhang sighed and said: "We are from Zhangzhou.  In a place where heroes are good, the good reputation that Chen Biniang and Chen Diao Wang have built for Zhangzhou cannot be tarnished because of little people like us"

    As soon as these words came out,nbsp; Lieutenant Colonel Juan¡¯s field artillery team mainly has two kinds of artillery, one is the so-called Fo Lang machine in the Ming Dynasty.  The official name in Spain is - breech-loading swivel gun!

    In order to facilitate transportation, the wealthy Spaniards used bronze to cast field guns, and the swivel gun was no exception.  The gun body is 1.5 meters long and weighs 300 pounds. Each gun is equipped with several beer mug-shaped sub-guns containing different ammunition to meet different needs.

    The other type of cannon is what the Ming Dynasty called the 'Bronze Hair Cannon', and the Spaniards called it the Eagle Cannon. It is a type of artillery specifically aimed at infantry. The muzzle diameter is smaller, about 55 mm, and its power and range are better than the swivel cannon.

    Both of these cannon bodies are very light, can move with the army, are very convenient and flexible, and have made great achievements for the Spanish to open up colonies.

    The disadvantage is that it is less powerful and not suitable for practical use in battles, but to deal with the overseas Chinese in the stream, it is definitely a killing blow!  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
