The Zheng family's ships cut the waves and headed towards the south.

The Dutch who occupied Luzon and other places were shocked.

Even, someone was sent to ask what the Zheng family intended...

Java Island is a narrow island composed of more than a hundred volcanoes in the south of Luzon.

The terrain here is mainly mountainous and hilly, with basins between them, and the rivers on Java Island are short and rapid.

Most rivers flow northward because the central mountains that form river watersheds are slightly closer to the southern coast than to the northern coast.

However, there are also several rivers that flow southward.

The largest rivers on the island are the Solo and Brantas Rivers located in eastern Java.

These two rivers, as well as many smaller rivers, are available for irrigation, but are only navigable during the rainy season, and only small boats can sail.

The Shunta Kingdom did not occupy a large area on Java Island. At its peak, it only occupied more than 300 miles of northern areas.

"History of Ming Dynasty" records: "The country is called Putian Long, also known as Xiagang and Shunta.

During the Wanli period, the Hongmao Fantuan earth depot was built in the east of Dajian, and the Folangji was built in the west of Dajian, and each year was sold.

Chinese business travelers are also constantly in exchanges.

Its state-owned new village is the most famous. Chinese and foreign merchant ships circulate in their land and treasures fill in overflowing.

The village owner was from Guangdong. In the ninth year of Yongle, he sent an envoy to express his tribute to the local goods."

In addition, Liang Qichao's "Biography of the Great Chinese Colonial Man" also records:

"The new village owner is also from Guangdong. Java and Sumatra are separated from the Sunda Strait.

To the north of the island is the place name Batavia, also known as Glaba, and is the metropolis of Java.

The ancestor of the Yuan Dynasty sent Shi Bi to conquer a neighboring country in Java, which was rejected by Gelang. This is the case.

During the Yuan and Ming dynasties, Java was a powerful man in various countries and had long held the hegemony of the South China Sea. There was a place called Duban on the northern coast, which was the Guzhapo Kingdom, also known as Dubo and Dupo, also known as Heling. It was first published in China during the Yuan and Jia periods of the Liu Song Dynasty, and both the Tang and Song Dynasties once paid tribute.

During the reign of Emperor Taizu of the Ming Dynasty, Zhepo, Java, was tributed during the reign of the two countries. Zhepo was also called Putian Long, and also called Xiagang and Shunta, which mostly lived in Guangdong and Zhangquan."

...

When he learned that the Zheng family was just a routine condolence, the Dutch Governor was slightly relieved.

Although he acted fiercely in Nanyang, there were actually not many Dutch people in Nanyang at this time.

In addition, at this time, there were many conflicts within the sea coachman, which made his support for Nanyang much weaker.

The entire Nanyang generation, the Dutch were only thousands of soldiers, and were only armed with 30,000 to 40,000 armed merchants.

The Zheng family's ship, Luzon, Yue Kingdom, continued to sail towards the south, which made the Dutch, who were alert in his heart breathe a sigh of relief.

The other Westerners were not as powerful as the Dutch, and at this time, they only occupied some scraps in the Southeast Asian regions, and were not too involved in the Southeast Asian regions like the Netherlands.

The traditional adventure area of ​​Westerners is still in the Americas...

The Zheng family's fleet stopped at Xiagang, which is where Shunta Country belongs. In the wooden fence, the Dutch people who had already secretly controlled the place, were shocked.

Fortunately, the Zheng family did not make things difficult for them. After observing it, the soldiers of the Zheng family were divided into two parts, some stayed in the local area to replenish freshwater and other objects, while some were traveling inland along the road.

"What are these wise people doing?"

In Xiagang City, a bearded red-haired man frowned.

"Sir, I just asked about it. The Zheng family said that they had been ordered to go to the Lu family in Shunta."

"Lu family?"

The bearded man raised his eyebrows, this is not a good thing!

"You send someone to the Governor's Office and tell the Governor the Zheng family's plan!"

A few years ago, they suffered losses at the hands of the Zheng family. Even the warship was swallowed by Zheng Chenggong. They just threw their personnel on the ship and provided a small amount of supplies. Their robbery on Dayuan Island was eaten by the Zheng family!

They also knew about the changes in the Ming court.

The Ming court, who originally thought that he would die without a doubt, and even the entire territory was occupied by the Tatars in the north, was rekindled under the rule of the Qing Dynasty.

This is not a good sign!

You must know that this Ming Dynasty is really hateful!

Even if there is only one corner of this country, it will still be against them.

It was not as easy as the Qing court to date.

In order to deal with the Ming people, the Qing court granted them a lot of benefits!

If the Zheng family had not interfered with it, it would have probably been another pearl on the crown of the emperor at this time!

The person sent by Zheng Jing is called Liu Guoxuan.

Liu Guoxuan was born in Changting, Ting Prefecture, Fujian. He was influenced by Hakka culture and tempered by the arduous mountain environment since he was a child, and developed a courageous, firm and tenacious character since he was a child.

In the second year of Longwu and the third year of Shunzhi, the Qing army invaded Fujian in large numbers. Liu Guoxuan joined the Qing army due to family changes and began his rank in Zhangzhou.

When he first arrived in Zhangzhou, he was only a disciple, but later promoted to the Qiang Governor of the Guardian and guarded the northern gate of Zhangzhou.

During his time serving the Qing army, Liu Guoxuan was appreciated by General Zheng of the former Ming and Zheng, who was his immediate boss at that time. However, he was humble after all, and even though he had some military performance, he was always a lower-level general and his reputation was not significant.

During this period, Zheng Chenggong had already established a base for the anti-Qing Dynasty in Xiamen and Kinmen, and his popularity became increasingly popular. Liu Guoxuan admired Zheng Chenggong's righteous deeds very much, and had long had the intention of joining Zheng Chenggong.

In the eighth year of Yongli and the eleventh year of Shunzhi, Zheng Chenggong besieged Zhangzhou, and Liu Guoxuan actively instigated the Qing army's garrison to surrender Xiancheng.

On the first day of December, Liu Guoxuan guided the Zheng army to attack Zhangzhou City without bloodshed at night, forcing the Qing Dynasty's Zhang Shiyao and others to surrender to Zheng.

After the matter was completed, Liu Guoxuan was awarded the position of deputy governor on the fourth day of the lunar month, in charge of guarding the rear town.

However, Zheng Chenggong was responsible for his own strategy and used bravery as the first priority to control the troops and use generals. Liu Guoxuan was still not valued.

Zheng Jun ordered the orders, and Liu Guoxuan was defeated several times. Chen Yonghua knew that he was very strategic, so he was exempted from his death penalty.

In the tenth year of Yongli and the thirteenth year of Shunzhi, when Zheng Chenggong was in the northern expedition to Nanjing, Liu Guoxuan was only a deputy leader of the Right Tiger Guard.

Later, the Zheng army general was short of staff, and Liu Guoxuan was elected as one of the candidates, but in the end he was unable to get the post because of his lack of qualifications.

In the fifteenth year of Yongli and the eighteenth year of Shunzhi, Zheng Chenggong led his army to regain Taiwan. Liu Guoxuan led the army and led the governor Ma Xin and others to personally lead archers to repel the Dutch army's counterattack, making great contributions to the regaining of Taiwan.

In the 16th year of Yongli, in the first year of Kangxi, Zheng Chenggong died. The Zheng family's heirs broke out in Taiwan, and Zheng Chenggong's younger brother Zheng Xi planned to become independent.

Liu Guoxuan once planned with him and was awarded the title of Guan Zhenbing.

Later, Zheng Jing failed after the Jing Dynasty. Because Liu Guoxuan was not Zheng Xi's confidant, Zheng Jing did not investigate the responsibility.

After Zheng Jing succeeded to the throne, he ordered Liu Guoxuan to station in Jilong Mountain.

During this period, Liu Guoxuan commanded his army to attack Taiwan's Gaoshan tribes many times, destroy Shalu and other tribes, and defeated Douwei and Longan and other foreign clubs.

Since Zheng Jing entered Taiwan, he gradually showed his talents and was promoted step by step. Liu Guoxuan was able to gradually gain control of Taiwan's military power.

Zhu Cijiong restored the second year of the Ming Dynasty and the Han Dynasty, and in the eighth year of the Kangxi reign, Zheng Jing counterattacked the mainland. As Zheng Jing's Guan Zhenbing, Liu Guoxuan served as the left and right Wuwei, and became the pillar of the Zheng regime.

This time, Chen Jinnan strongly advocated that he lead his army to expedition, which was his favorite military talent that could stand alone.

"General, the Dutch infiltration of Shunta Country is becoming increasingly serious!"

On the carriage purchased from Xiagang, Deputy General Chen Weixiong frowned.

"Yes, I look at Xiagang. Rather than being in the hands of Shunta, it is better to say that it has been taken away by the Dutch!"

Liu Guoxuan's eyebrows were deeply locked.

He was very happy with the prince's appointment.

There are not many opportunities to be alone like this!

Originally, he thought that this time he was on a mission, he only promoted the Zheng family and the majesty of the Ming Dynasty, so that the useful Dutch could retreat in the face of difficulties.

At this point, it seems that it is probably impossible to achieve it in a short period of time!

but……

Liu Guoxuan clenched his fists: "Brother Chen, the country is in danger. It is when you and I are loyal to the country and serve the court. You and I cannot retreat!"

Chen Weixiong nodded: "General, don't worry, not to mention that Your Majesty has condemned you and me in the original squad, just for the flag of the Ming Dynasty, the last general will inevitably fight to the death!"

"There is no need to fight to the death!"

Liu Guoxuan shook his head: "Mr. Chen and I were very clear, including His Majesty who was far away in Nanyang, we are also clear. We cannot reach our hands to Nanyang for the time being!"

"What the general means is that we just come forward to give Shunta a breather?"

Chen Weixiong said in confusion.

“That’s right!”

Liu Guoxuan nodded: "You know the vision of that Majesty. When the Ming Dynasty had only one province, he would be in the world. How could his future achievements be weak!"

"We are humiliated for the time being, and we will take it back twice as much as possible!"

Liu Guoxuan stroked his sword: "As sooner or later, it will drink the blood of the red-haired man!"

Chen Weixiong gritted his teeth and nodded vigorously: "General, just don't worry, I know how to do it!"
