"I'm telling you, the Ming army will be here soon. By then, all the good things in the city will be theirs, and the credit will also be theirs."
Zheng Zhibao remained silent and did not refute his brother.
He was much worse in this regard. His brother had always been good at these things. Not only was he good at them, but he was also very proficient in them. What his brother said must be true, and Zheng Zhibao chose to believe it.
The reason why Zheng Zhilong was so confident was that if it were him, he would definitely do the same, otherwise he would not be able to explain to his subordinates.
It would be unacceptable not to let one's men go down and make contributions to such a great battle and such a great achievement. One cannot let one's men go down to die, but one must let one's men go down to make contributions.
At this time, the sound of gunfire weakened a lot, and the sound of gunfire like popping beans was heard in another direction.
Zheng Zhilong pulled his brother to hide in the corner and said, "Look, they are coming."
"Aren't we going out?" Zheng Zhibao asked his brother.
"Swords and guns are blind." Zheng Zhilong glared and said, "If you go out now, they will shoot you to death and you won't have any place to complain. Wait here until they come and we can go out. Anyway, you can forget about the credit, there will be no benefit at all."
Zheng Zhibao sighed and said helplessly, "But this is too cowardly. We're the ones going to die, and all the benefits go to them. This isn't a solution!"
"You're overthinking it," Zheng Zhilong said. "Actually, I've already thought about it. You know, the Ming army has been out for such a long time this time, they must bring back merits. As a commander-in-chief, it's impossible not to consider the feelings of his subordinates. They must reap the benefits, and after this battle, they should return. That's when we can reap the benefits."
"You have to know that Japan is so big, it's impossible for the Ming Dynasty to send so many people here, and it's impossible for the army to be so large. So this place will soon become our paradise."
Zheng Zhibao nodded, trusting his elder brother's judgment. Seeing that his brother had his own territory and a way to make money, he felt very happy.
"Brother, what should we do next?" Zheng Zhibao asked Zheng Zhilong.
After a moment's silence, Zheng Zhilong looked up and said, "Let's go find that eunuch and give him some gifts so he can speak well of us in front of the emperor and try to get us an official status. With a Ming official status, things will be much easier for us in the future."
"We are originally from the Ming Dynasty. We are different from those Japanese people, and even different from the Koreans. In this regard, we have an advantage. Let's go back and get more things. Don't be too stingy."
"Don't worry, big brother. I understand." Zheng Zhibao smiled and nodded, saying, "We absolutely cannot skimp on the money we should spend this time. My younger brother won't be stingy in this regard."
"That would be great." Zheng Zhilong said with a smile, "Once we brothers have established ourselves, our future will be filled with prosperity!"
