Chapter 411 They are descendants of Yin and Shang, and they are my compatriots in the Ming Dynasty

"Australia is no less than the Central Plains."

p>

Lu Li climbed the mountain behind Yijinnuo port and took a circle, "This piece of land is not only rich in resources, but also a natural pasture."

Australia has the largest land in the world. Gold, iron ore, lead, nickel, rutile, silver, uranium, zinc and zirconium resources, second largest resource of Bauxite Ore, lignite, cobalt, ilmenite and tantalum, third largest resource of copper and lithium, fourth largest resource The largest resource of thorium and the fifth largest resource of black coal and manganese ore.

In addition, Australian grasslands are natural pastures. Just throw some cattle and sheep into it, and in the absence of natural enemies, the reproduction speed will scare people to death.

You must know that in the future Australia, even rabbits are a disaster!

Of course, under the current conditions of Daming, it does not have the ability to develop Australia in an all-round way, and it only needs to occupy it.

Leaving a garrison at the Yijinnuo port, unloading some supplies, and assigning 10,000 Tianzhu laborers to build the Yijinuo base, Lu Li continued south with the fleet.

The supply and subsequent construction of Yijinnuo port base will be supplemented by the opposite Guinea base.

Along the Australian coastline all the way to the south, two bases were set up in the Sunshine Coast and Sydney in later generations.

Leaving the garrison, supplies, labour and some fleet behind, Lu Li led the remaining fleet across the Tasman Sea to New Southwest Flyingdon on the opposite side.

New Southwest Flyingdon, will serve as Lu Li's forward base for South America.

All kinds of materials were unloaded, troops were stationed, laborers settled in, the transport fleet began to return, and continued to transport various materials from the South China Sea for the construction of bases in Australia and the New Southwest.

The laborers, also under the command of the army, began to build ports and buildings with masonry and cement delivered by transport ships.

Of course, building brick kilns, cement kilns, and even planting crops such as potatoes in the vicinity are also necessary operations.

There are also coal mines near Flyington. Although it is not a large coal mine, the coal and bricks and cement used to maintain the destroyer fleet are still sufficient.

Australia and the New Southwest in this era have almost no who.

There are only a few hundred thousand Aboriginal people in the Australian continent, and even fewer in the New Southwest. Now with tens of thousands of laborers and 30,000 troops, Flyingdon is already the largest population gathering area in the new southwest.

The next step is crazy infrastructure.

Even in the Ming Dynasty, the true character of the infrastructure madman could not be lost.

……

While Lu Li was busy with infrastructure construction, Duke Qian, Qi Jiguang and Yu Dayou were also organizing a fleet and preparing to go west.

Because of the problem of burning coal, the three of Qian Guogong followed Lu Li's suggestion and did not use steam destroyers, and they couldn't get so many steam destroyers.

Today, Zheng Yuan has built the Nanyang Shipyard at the Da Nang base, and the entire production capacity is used to build steam passenger ships and Galen-type armed transport ships.

Jinshan Shipyard, in addition to the continuous production of Zhenhai destroyers, is also producing Galen-type armed transport ships.

Even so, the number of orders for the three men of the State of Qian was too large. After three months, Zheng Yuan could only deliver a hundred Galen-type armed transport ships.

Fortunately, the technology of Galen ships is mastered by private shipyards all over the Ming Dynasty. Of course, this was under the behest of Lu Li, and Zheng Yuan spread it widely.

In today's Daming Sea, the lucky boats with small carrying capacity have long been eliminated, and they have become the offshore transport ships of the Nanyang Islands. Ocean transport is mainly new treasure ships and large Galen ships.

Tianzhu's huge market has made Daming Shipping desperately develop the shipping industry, for fear of insufficient cargo ships and insufficient carrying capacity.

In this case, Daming's shipbuilding industry is very developed. The three people of Qianguo Gong purchased the Galen ship very smoothly.

These Galen ships will be powerful sailing battleships as long as they get the artillery installed at Da Nang or Jinshanwei Shipyard.

Jiajing forty-three years in June.

Mu Chaobi, Qi Jiguang and Yu Dayou formed a huge fleet of 400 large Galen-style armed transport ships, full of guns, ammunition, navigational supplies, and a 50,000-strong army. Go to sea, expedition to the West.

For this kind of battleship that can carry thousands of tons of goods and 500 soldiers, and also install 24 breech artillery, it is called a transport ship by Lu Li, and the three people of Qian Guogong are snort disdainfully of.

This is also called a transport ship? Whose transport ship is so powerful? Can't see how much it is loaded, so let's call it a transport ship?

“Set sail!”

Qian Guogong is high-spirited and vigorous, pointing to the west with a knife.

Behind, a giant ship raised its sails and went west along the coastline of Tianzhu.

The huge fleet rode the wind and waves and soon arrived at Persia, the first stop of the Western Expedition.

It's just that... the situation at hand is a bit complicated.

Ports and towns along the Persian coast are littered with dilapidated spectacles, as if a war had been fought not long ago.

When this huge fleet with the flag of the sun and the moon was flying high along the coast of Persia, the Persians on the shore screamed in horror and fled in embarrassment.

"What's the situation?"

The Duke of Qian just felt confused and couldn't understand the situation.

Qi Jiguang and Yu Dayou looked at each other and saw the smiles in each other's eyes. Obviously, this is the consequence of the expulsion of the Japanese pirates by the Duke of Yue.

The Japanese pirates who were driven by Daming to flee in embarrassment have already beaten the Persian fiercely.

The fleet continued to move forward. When everyone arrived in the Persian Gulf and arrived at the port of Abbas, a pitiful "fleet" appeared on the sea ahead.

If these small sampans, which are not used by the Ming fishermen, are also called fleets, the fleet size is still not small! Hundreds of ships.

"This kind of small sampan, when we move forward, the waves are a little bigger. We have to overturn them, right?"

The Duke of Qian didn't know whether to The feeling of cry or laugh. I'm here to fight the Quartet, so what's the point of fighting?

"Call that Tianzhu interpreter here and tell the other party."

Duke Qian waved his hand, "Tell them! We are the Daming Fleet, coming to chase down the Japanese pirates and protect the Daming sea frontier. Persia is also a vassal of Daming, and should be protected by Daming."

"Uh... Lord, when did Persia become a vassal of Daming?"

Qi Jiguang stared wide-eyed.

"I have so much to do with it? Lu Li this move is easy to use, so just take it and use it!"

The Duke of Qian glared at Qi Jiguang.

"This... what the grandfather said is actually correct."

Yu Dayou held back his laughter and said in deadly earnest: "In Tang Dynasty, there was also a Persian The Protectorate. Now... although it's been a long time, it can still be related to some extent! Persia is a vassal of the Ming Dynasty, that's right!"

"It's not that far away, the Court of the Three Treasures of the Dynasty When Eunuch went to the West, he must have been there too. They must be vassals of the Ming Dynasty."

Qi Jiguang was enlightened immediately.

"Hahahaha!"

The Duke of Qian laughed loudly, "That's good! Go, let the interpreter go and tell them that!"

Therefore, Tianzhu Interpreter took a small boat and went to the Persian "fleet", and expressed his intention to the Persian commander.

The Persian commander's beard twitched.

Da Ming Fleet, this identity has been understood.

The Ming Dynasty was a terrifyingly powerful Great Empire. Their fleet had arrived here a hundred years ago. The sail shadow covering the heavens, shielding the sun, still makes people tremble.

Now they're back, and stronger. It is said that Tianzhu next door has been blown up by the Ming army.

I understand the pursuit of Japanese pirates.

That terrifying fleet half a year ago, those murderous pirates who robbed everything, should be the so-called Japanese pirates.

Only a terrifyingly powerful empire like Daming could drive those terrifying Japanese pirates everywhere.

But...since ancient times Persia is a vassal of the Ming Dynasty? The Eastern Empire set up the Persian Protectorate here hundreds of years ago? The Daming fleet came to protect the sea frontier and the Daming vassal state?

What the hell is this? Your protection... can I refuse?

"Boom!"

On the sea in the distance, a battleship fired a salvo, and a violent explosion blasted a huge water column one after another.

Well, Daming's protection cannot be refused!

The complexion azure-white of the Persian commander hurriedly told the interpreter: "I want to report to the king. Please don't attack."

"I understand your mood very well. "

Tianzhu translation curl one's lip, "But...you're running out of time. Believe me, Daming's anger, Persia can't bear it, just like our Tianzhu can't bear it."

"I...get it!"

The Persian commander's face was solemn and serious.

In the following high-level talks, Duke Qian did not mention too harsh conditions.

Ask the Persian king to submit the table, ask the son of Da Ming to allow Persia to become a Da Ming vassal state, and give the Persian king the title, and the Da Ming sun and moon flags are hung all over the city of Persia.

Requested to allocate the port to the Ming garrison to protect Persia. And allowed the Ming merchants to go to Persia to do business.

Other requests, such as disbanding the army, were not mentioned. After all... there are still many places to fight, and it is impossible to divide troops and garrison in cities in Persia.

Under the threat of strong ships and cannons, the Persian king had to face the reality and accepted the protection of the Ming Dynasty.

Therefore... Daming Sea Merchant, who followed the fleet, discovered a huge market with a population of tens of millions, and various merchant ships flocked here.

Persia is done, and the food next door can't escape.

On the opposite side of the Persian Gulf is the Caliphate. When the fleet was blocked in the port of Kuwait, the Caliphate also accepted the same conditions as Persia.

Daming marine business is having another carnival! Dashi is also a huge market with a population of tens of millions.

Wherever the fleet goes, it is a feast for the Daming maritime merchants.

Afterwards, Duke Qian's fleet continued westward, from the Red Sea to Suez, and then came into contact with the huge market of Egypt.

Suez builds a base where trade can spread north. All countries along the Mediterranean coast are interested in Daming goods.

Heizhou in the south... Daming Haishang is at least better than the Spanish ducks and grape ducks, and can't do slave business.

……

When the three men of Qian Guogong traversed the Western Ocean, the construction of Lu Li’s base was also initially completed.

It has to be said that most of the land in Australia and the New Southwest is suitable for agricultural production. Potatoes, corn and other crops planted around the base grow very lush.

Ports and towns built of cement and masonry have begun to take shape. Three hundred transport ships were transported non-stop, and a large amount of materials were hoarded in various bases.

Everything is ready to go.

In October of the 43rd year of Jiajing, Australia and the New Southwest in the southern hemisphere, it was a bright spring.

On this day, Lu Li led 50 destroyers, 300 large Galen-type armed transport ships, loaded a large amount of materials, took 30,000 soldiers, and set sail, all the way east, to South America.

From the New Southwest to Chile in South America, there is still a long way across the Pacific Ocean.

Fortunately, Lu Li had already loaded the destroyer with coal and the transport ship with a large amount of burning coal, otherwise, the destroyer would not have reached the coast of Chile.

In late November, Lu Li's fleet arrived off the coast of Chile.

During this period, the Spanish ducks had colonized the Americas, killing and enslaving the Indians of the Americas continent.

When Lu Li's fleet came to Puerto Montt in southern Chile, the densely packed ships covered almost the entire coast.

This Spanish duck colony is in turmoil.

The huge fleet of hundreds of battleships is so scary.

"Sir, are we... going to fire?"

The Spanish duck artilleryman stationed at the port fort asked the officer next to him.

"No! God, please don't fire!"

The officer turned pale with fright, "Didn't you see that they had a few ships? , we're all going to die."

"Understood, sir!"

The artilleryman gulped and nodded.

"Sir, which country's fleet is this? How come I've never seen it before?"

Looking at the hundreds of battleships parked on the sea, the sun and the moon floating above. The flag, the artillery has no idea at all, where exactly is this fleet coming from.

"I don't know either."

The officer shook the head, "The only certainty is that they are definitely not a Spanish duck battleship."

Port inside.

The head of the colony of Puerto Montt looked up at the strange battleship densely packed in the port, his face was pale, and sweat began to appear on his forehead.

The Western fleets of this era were all pirates, burning, killing, looting, and doing everything.

The arrival of such a large fleet, Puerto Montt...is done.

It's just that, because of his duty, he must come forward to contact this fleet. The other party has not launched an attack yet, indicating that there is still the possibility of communication.

At this time, a battleship with black smoke came to the port dock, the gangway was lowered, and several soldiers dressed in black clothed, carrying a bright red flag, marched neatly, and boarded the pier. On the pier.

The flag was planted on the pier, and the sun and the moon fluttered in the wind.

Under the protection of a team of guards, Lu Li set foot on the soil of South America.

"Hello, Your Excellency! Can I ask your purpose?"

At this time, the director of the Colony of Puerto Montt, trembling with fear, came up and greeted Lu Li.

Spanish?

In the story of a scientist, Lu Li has also learned German, French, Spanish and other languages in order to read the latest scientific research documents, so it is not a problem to communicate with this Spanish official.

“Are you asking me why I’m here?”

Lu Li said to the man in Spanish: “Ben Gong, Yue Guo Gong of the Great Ming Empire. Yin Er bullied me and killed me. Daming compatriots, hereby raise troops to fight. Those who violate my Daming Heavenly Might, no matter how far away you are you will certainly be punished!"

Great Ming Empire? A duke?

The Spaniards naturally know the huge Great Ming Empire in the east, and also know the weight of a duke representative.

It's just...slaughtering fellow Ming Dynasty? Spain's tentacles in the Far East have not yet reached the coastal waters of Daming, where have they slaughtered compatriots in Daming?

"Your Excellency, is there any misunderstanding here?"

"No misunderstanding!"

Lu Li pointed at the shackled Indian on the port. slave, said to the Spanish duck official: "Did you see it? They are my compatriots in Ming Dynasty!"

"Oh...no! No!"

The Spanish official shook his head repeatedly, "Your Majesty, you have misunderstood. They are Indians, not Ming people."

"You are wrong! They are my compatriots from Ming Dynasty!"

Lu Li looked serious , "Three thousand years ago, in a dynasty called Shang, a group of Yin and Shang people fled to America. The Indians you are talking about are the descendants of Yin and Shang, and they are my compatriots in Daming!"

Three thousand years forward?

Spanish officials are stunned! Oh, God! Is there any more nonsense reason than this?
