"Prince, how long will it take to go ashore?"

As the fleet got closer to land, Meng Tian turned to Shao Hao's prince and asked.

King Shaohao, although he is no longer called king, was named king by Qin Shi Huang, so it is okay for the son of King Shaohao to continue to be called a prince.

The prince said: "General Huimeng, after landing on the shore, you can go to Haocheng in half a day." In fact, this is already a village belonging to Shaohao. ”

"Oh? This is Shaohao's village? I'm the territory of Great Qin! ”

Ying Zheng on the side couldn't help but be excited when he heard this.

It turned out that as far as the eye could see, it was already the territory of Great Qin.

At that moment, he asked: "Since it is Shaohao's port, how many troops are stationed there?" ”

"This ...... There was not a single soldier stationed at the wharf ahead, only more than 100 villagers. The prince smiled bitterly with a little inferiority.

No way, having seen the port of Daqin, the prince really felt that Shaohao was too weak and too backward.

The territory of Daqin is vast, with thousands of miles from north to south, hundreds of cities, each city is heavily guarded, and there are four major military regions, millions of elites, which is simply terrifying.

Look at Shaohao again, there is only one city, and its strength is not as good as that of one county and one county in Daqin.

Especially before going to Daqin, when his father sent himself and Xu Fu to Daqin to talk about the return of the land, he was still very depressed and sad.

After all, he is Shaohao, and he is also a country, how can he succumb to another country because he is also a descendant of China?

It's just that when he went to Daqin and saw the strength of Daqin, the prince felt how ridiculous he was at the beginning.

He is a country of Shaohao, in front of the people of Daqin, it is not a country at all, it can only be called a county.

As for succumbing?

That doesn't exist.

Because a force like himself Shaohao, in front of Daqin, has no so-called qualifications for condescension at all. If Great Qin wants to rule you, with his strength, it is completely something that can be done with a raise of his hand.

Although he only stayed in Daqin for a few days, the prince personally learned that Li Yang, the king of Daqin's Zhenguo, ruled the four kingdoms of Xiongnu, Fuyu, Sushen, and Donghu in the rest of the month, and the area and strength of these four countries were dozens of times that of Shaohao.

In other words, Shao Hao's return to his home country in China is not a condescension at all, but he has received the care of his relatives.

Because Shaohao is a descendant of Huaxia, his mission to Daqin was welcomed by the whole country of Daqin. Moreover, Daqin also set Shaohao as a state, which is one specification higher than Daqin's own province. More importantly, the First Emperor of Great Qin made his father king, but in the Great Qin Empire, there was no king.

All of this is because Shao Hao is a descendant of China, so Da Qin will treat Shao Hao with high courtesy. Otherwise, a "insignificant" force like Shao Hao, who was in the eyes of Great Qin, would not have the qualifications to negotiate terms with Great Qin at all, let alone be respected.

Yes, this trip made the prince deeply realize that the national consciousness of Daqin is strong, and there is a loyal, lasting and strong sense of belonging to "China" in their thoughts, that is, the identification with the Great Qin Empire, which includes the identity of the Chinese land, the identity of the Chinese nation, and the identity of the Chinese national culture.

As long as they are descendants of China, they are all the people of Great Qin, and they are all one family within the four seas.

As long as it is the land of China, it will not allow foreign invasion, and those who dare to invade will be punished!

Maybe it's because of his own tribe of Shaohao, who has been bullied by local foreigners for thousands of years, or maybe because Shaohao is now in danger, and now he has returned to the mother country of China, and suddenly can be protected by the most powerful mother country in the world, and the prince has a kind of solidity that he has never had.

This feeling of being solid and cared for is like a child who is being bullied outside, and suddenly a strong father opens his arms, so that you can be fearless from now on!

This kind of solid and proud feeling has never been felt by the prince.

That's right, this is the pride and self-confidence that the Chinese nation brings to itself.

As long as you are a descendant of Huaxia, you can no longer be afraid, because there is a powerful mother country behind you - the Great Qin Empire! She can make you fearless of all forces!

No, Emperor Daqin learned that Shaohao was bullied by foreigners, even if he was thousands of miles away, he personally led an army of 30,000 to come to the aid to protect the Chinese people here.

Thinking of this, the prince, who felt a little inferior to Shao Hao's strength, was moved again.

This kind of emotion cannot be felt by people who have been bullied by foreigners for thousands of years.

Ying Zheng didn't know the feelings of the little prince Shaohao, so he only said: "Since it is your own port, how can you not have soldiers to garrison it, Meng Tian, and leave three thousand soldiers to garrison this place after landing on the shore!" ”

"Whoa!" Meng Tian received the order.

Of course, the reason why Ying Zheng divided his troops to garrison this place was mainly to protect the dozens of sea ships in Daqin.

Because if these dozens of ships are destroyed or burned by the enemy, then they will not think about returning for three or five years.

However, when these words were heard in the ears of the prince, they represented Daqin's sense of responsibility to protect the territory and the people, which made the prince feel a sigh in his heart.

This is Daqin.

As long as it is the territory of Great Qin, there will be soldiers who defend the territory!

This is also a fact that he saw with his own eyes when he went to Daqin this time.

The Great Qin Empire, there are several legions of hundreds of thousands of troops, each county has county soldiers, and there are townships and pavilions under the county, the entire vast territory of the Great Qin Empire, there is no war, everyone lives and works in peace and contentment, and no one dares to commit the surrounding forces, compared with Shaohao, it is simply a paradise.

Yin Jili, the prime minister of Shaohao on the side, immediately said: "Since Your Majesty is stationed in the troops left here, after the minister returns to Shaohao City, he will immediately start to arrange logistics to ensure the supply of grain and grass for the garrison here." ”

Ying Zheng nodded with satisfaction: "Okay, there is Xiang Yin in charge of this matter, and I have nothing to worry about!" ”

While he was talking, the fleet had also docked.

The first emperor of the Great Qin Dynasty, Ying Zheng, was the first to get off the ship and set foot on the land of the Americas.

Meng Tian, Xu Fu, and Li You, accompanied by the Shaohao delegation, followed closely.

Then came the 30,000 Qin army, as well as a large number of Qin crossbows and arrows, began to land in a steady stream.

All of a sudden, the entire coast was full of black flags, full of Great Qin soldiers.

This scene is so spectacular, Shao Hao has never seen it.

…………

Sandy beach, coconut grove.

Behind the coconut grove is the village.

Strange to say, the shore here is very loud, but it has not attracted even a single villager.

It took half an hour for the 30,000 troops to unload all their weapons from the ship.

However, when everyone walked through the coconut grove, what they saw was not a cosy fishing village, but a ruin......
