On October 1593, in the middle of the Philippine Sea, Chinese crews on board a Spanish galley commited a mutiny, and it led to a 30 to 40 Spanish casualties, where Goméz Pérez Dasmariñas, the 7th Governer and Captain General of the Philippines Islands, was killed in the military expedition to the Molucca Islands, also knowns as the Spice Islands. After returning to Manila, Luis Pérez Dasmariñas, who was a son of the late Governor, succeded to his father’s position as Governor. On January 1594, a fleet of ships from China anchored off the coast of Manila, from which seven mandarins, Ming Chinese officers, disembarked at the port of Manila. They included three military officers and four merchants, one of whom was Chen Shen, a Fujianese merchant, who had been dispatched to Ryukyu as a secret agent. They were dispatched by Xu Fuyuan, who was then a Governor of Fujian province, with a public mission to bring back to China Sangleyes, Chinese overseas residing in Manila. But when they visited Luis, they said to him that Ming government would offer him military support. And they began to investigate whether relationship had been established between Luzón and Japan. Luis was suspicious of Sangleyes’ behaviors because they had murdered his father and had trade with Japanese, he believed it might lead to a conspiracy to rise in rebellion against Spanish, and he banished Sangleyes from Luzón to China. So, Luis refused to accept their offer, but he did not do anything against seven mandarins’ plan to bring Sangleyes back to China. For Ming and Luzón, Sangleyes were likely to be the marginal people who were potentially threatening both coasts, with Japanese force. Meanwhile, Xu Fuyuan dispatched them to present memorials to Ming court, suggesting that Ming court establish a relation with Luzón to support war in Korea, taking it as ‘outer support(外援)’. No matter whether Luzón actually had accepted his offer of Ming’s military support, Xu suggested Ming court take Luzón as Ming’s supporter.
