Yan Changwu, the boss of the Southeast Mansion, is not yet luxurious, he only wears military uniforms when he goes out, he does not govern the palace, he does not like women, the number of his concubines is far less than that of other nobles, he is most concerned about his rule, his income is extremely high, and the entire eastern sea of Asia is his, but his money has not been enough to spend, and it has been used for the army, economic development and the welfare of the people.

As long as he has money, he builds ships, and the number of warships is constantly increasing, the size of the fleet is increasing year by year, and the number is increasing, and with his warships he has turned the eastern seas of Asia into a lake of China!

As a military strongman, he has absolute control over the seas of eastern Asia!

There are people who understand in the red-haired fan, including the Spaniards in Acapulco, what if Yan Changwu commands the fleet, follows the galleon trade route, goes straight to Mexico, and then attacks the silver mines in South America?

Those Spaniards asked the royal family to expand the fleet and protect the interests of the silver mines in South America, and then counterattack Asia, eliminate the southeast province, and restore the happy days of the previous return of the mainland to the Ming Dynasty and the return of the far sea to the red hair.

The royal family did spend money to expand the fleet, but unfortunately it was used in Europe!

The Spaniards had a lot of hatred with the British (their Armada was destroyed by the British), and the Low Countries under their jurisdiction, the Netherlands, became independent with the support of France, and the Spaniards pulled and pulled with them, and even Portugal, which was close at hand, could not control the separation from Spain, and how could there be air control over the yellow race thousands of miles away.

Therefore, Hong Xiguan established a consulate in Acapulco, and even if the Spaniards were unwilling to do so, they could only bow their heads.

This is a big blow to the white supremacy they promote, at least they can no longer deal with the Chinese with impunity.

When the Chinese heard the news, they were all overjoyed and even more supportive of the rule of the Southeast Province.

Unlike the Ming Dynasty, Emperor Ming said that overseas Chinese broke away from the Ming Dynasty and were not his people.

And Yan Changwu said that the Chinese overseas are all his people.

Of course, if he didn't have his fleet, others would say that he was a fool and a dreamer, but he had a huge fleet, then what he said was golden words!

Hong Xiguan spent two weeks in Acapulco, towing two cruisers ashore to clean the bottom of the ships of sea life, and then refurbishing the two warships, painting them all over again.

However, the repair in the cabin is done by itself, and the control is implemented, so as not to let outsiders in, so as not to know the situation inside the ship.

To make the warship in good condition, they spared no expense and hired two Spanish navigators.

The circumnavigation of the world in the southeast province is a major political task, only to succeed, at any cost, what a lot of money!

Under the farewell of the Chinese in the city of Acapulco, the two cruisers set sail.

Looking at the coastline that was gradually moving away, Hong Xiguan said with emotion: "Finally go home!" ”

Go home!

Hong Xiguan specially convened a meeting of the officers, emphasizing discipline, obeying the command in all actions, doing a good job, staying vigilant, and letting the children go home safely!

The officers responded en masse, giving orders to their subordinates, and they strengthened their command and supervision, and did not dare to relax at any time.

Under the guidance of the navigator, the cruiser set out on its journey, and the ocean current carried them quickly!

North Equatorial Warm Current!

From east to west, advancing rapidly, there is a sense of immensity.

Even if Zhang Fan eats enough wind, it is not as strong as this current, and he feels that the boat is being pushed quickly by the current, forward, forward!

The bonus was in place, the navigator was powerful, and the battleship galloped like a war horse, all the way to the west.

In less than three months, they arrived safely in Luzon.

When they saw the high lighthouse in Manila Harbor through their binoculars, all the officers and soldiers cheered.

It's almost home!

Although Manila was a stronghold of the Spaniards, it was within the influence of the Southeastern Army.

They came to Manila for a short rest, and when they came out, they were expanded by two cruisers from the southeastern province.

Four cruisers headed south to Rising Sun Harbor on the island of Java in Southeast Asia, and then one cruiser reported to them.

When the ruling government, the Prime Minister's Office, the War Department, and the General Staff Headquarters received the news, everyone was overjoyed, and Yan Changwu, the leader of the Southeast Prefecture, said happily: "This is luck!" ”..

"Mazu bless, let them return safely, if they come back next month, maybe I will go back to Taiwan, and I can't preside over the celebration ceremony for them!" Yan Changwu said.

Prime Minister Chen Xinji agreed: "Luck indeed! ”

On the morning of March 28, 43 A.D., the fleet of the Southeast Province returned to the Rising Sun Harbor after nearly two years.

In the channel outside the port, two meritorious cruisers were greeted by a formation of battleships, and ten battleships were divided into two columns to get out of the way and give way to the cruisers.

The military system is small to give way to the big, but the battleships make way for the cruisers, and they deserve such courtesy.

The officers and men of the battleship stood on the slope and saluted the cruiser!

The officers and men of the cruiser returned the salute and could not help but be flattered.

When the cruiser approached the dock, he heard the sound of a salute, Hao Sizhong counted carefully, and said in surprise: "Twenty-one salutes, we are a big victory, salute us!"

There is also a military system for firing salutes, such as leaders boarding ships or meeting at sea, they can receive the courtesy of firing 21 gun salutes, Premier Chen Xinji receives the treatment of 19 gun salutes, generals and ministers have 17 salutes, lieutenant generals and vice ministers have the treatment of 15 gun salutes, and major generals have the treatment of 12 gun salutes.

The officers and men on the cruiser are naturally not of this level, but the victory can fire a salute, and the big victory is to fire a salute of 21 guns to celebrate!

Everyone was overjoyed, and they just felt that all the hard work was worth it.

In order to celebrate their triumphant return, a special day off was given, including leaders, leaders' wives, prime ministers, officials of various ministries, military officers and soldiers, and the public, etc., gathered at the wharf to welcome the triumphant return of the visiting fleet.

The glamorous officers got off the gangplank, stood on the red carpet and walked in unison.

The leader was waiting for them on the other end of the red carpet, and they stopped.

Officer Hong Xuan came out of the ranks, saluted the leader, and said loudly: "On the orders of the leader, the Southeast Prefecture has visited the fleet, which has gone through three oceans and four continents, visited Portugal, Spain, France, England and the Netherlands, and sailed around the world. ”

"Good!" Yan Changwu returned the military salute and said happily.

He stood on the rostrum with Hong Xuguan, just the two of them, this was a glorious moment, in the eyes of everyone, Yan Changwu said loudly: "Let's cheer for the heroes!" ”

"Victory! Victory! Victory! The crowd was boiling, the salute sounded again, and everyone shouted the name of Hong Xuguan to salute him!

The other officers also stepped forward to receive cheers, and the atmosphere in the venue was extremely warm!
