"Yesterday a group of Portuguese went to the palace, and by land, it seems that the church in the city was the link for it."

…………

"The big cannibal in the country also seems to have made a move, last night Said, who was in the west of the city, was the same merchant who robbed the little girl with Teacher Fu, and went to Lao Wang's residence, along with a few heads and faces in the city."

…………

"The nobles in the city have been coming less these days, and I think they have heard some rumors."

…………

"Recently, people from the central part of Gotha in the west often come to the port to peep, and they neither sell nor go out to sea to fish, and I have arranged for people to pay close attention."

…………

Xiong Taibai sent back a radio message, three days ago on the morning a Western-style galleon had passed the coast where they were now docked and headed south, looking like a warship. However, it was impossible to send the photos back, it was difficult to confirm, and the radar had already paid attention to the capture, but the East Road team was not exposed. They are now located 180 kilometers away from us, and it seems a little strange that the ship should have arrived in Labuan with the current wind and water. ”

"Brother Wang has been very diligent these days."

"They are all unwilling to be lonely."

"The bait is going to stink, no matter how lonely you are, you are not afraid that those masters on the playground will not be happy?"

"Actually, it's the same with fried fish."

"There must always be someone who is sincere in his work, otherwise why bother watching this group of monkeys sing?"

"Not being willing to be lonely is the norm, you need to know that the population of Nanyang here is a negative growth, there are too many wars, Borneo is good here."

"Fortunately, there are fewer people?"

"Fortunately, there are more tigers and mosquitoes than people in charge of the country."

Along with the laughter came a burst of crisp laughter.

Will the Lord of the Bo Ni Country, as well as the cadres around the Lord of the Country, do anything to cross the group? How will it be done? This is indeed a headache, not only is the country lord himself indecided, but the crossing group is also waiting for a lot. In Rockley's words to Chase Mechay, 'The brethren are looking forward to this day. After all, the silver prepared by the traversers is limited, and if they don't break the game, they really have to force the banknotes in advance? Realistically speaking, in addition to the problem of not knowing his own strength clearly, His Royal Highness Ruaba is not a fool who is useless, at least the patience is not bad, originally with the strength of Labuan Island, it is not easy to say for an hour, and it is still possible to step on the city of Brahmanai in one day, but it is a pity that such a conquest has neither the support of cadres, nor can it be screened for those who surrender. The wheel of history is unstoppable' is understood, but after all, some people have a habit of cleanliness, abscesses are not squeezed in advance, and it is always not beautiful to stay on the body.

Several people in Dongfu exchanged information collected by the Yintai Division in the past few days, some of which were collected by themselves, some of which were inquired from merchants, and some of which were intentionally or unintentionally revealed by the nobles in the city. The trading station, which was still a little tense, and the many elders on Labuan Island became relaxed, no matter how big or small the fish they caught, it was always a good thing to have a bite on the hook, and the people of Long Shenwei were about to get sick.

It is still inconclusive how the military system of the crossing group will be, after all, those who can hold guns at the moment are the so-called veterans, and they will not go into battle shirtless unless they have to. However, the Dragon Shenwei as an arch guard organization was still established under the agitation of a group of hawks, as a little compensation for the slow forward policy, of course, as a compensation for a batch of newly opened weapons in the warehouse, especially AK47, this weapon born in the middle of the twentieth century has been popular on various battlefields on the earth for a whole hundred years is not entirely unreasonable, at least in the position of the traverser, there is no need to deliberately maintain a generation difference in their own armament, all safety first.

Zhu Dazhao led a military group of more than 100 people to practice day and night on the island, and this is the purest military force of the crossing group at present. Those veterans are sweating in the base in the northwest of Labuan at the moment, they are all optimistic, but they have a simple idea, it is best to enter the palace tomorrow and take the bird position.

The ordnance supervisor led by Su Yao is also not easy, and the rifles and artillery that have been tried out in various eras are also imitated, but because they want to prepare for the diffusion of technology in the future, they can't use 3D printing, all of which are handmade, which is really tired of a lot of technical nerds who are used to lying down and doing things.

Yu Pao is not idle, his health department is really nerve-wracking just for the epidemic prevention after taking over the national capital, in fact, whether it is a local native or a mainland immigrant, how many rounds of natural elimination have been passed, and the so-called miasma land is for those who have died, or how much can resist some. However, the time-travelers carried the virus epidemic that had been 'battle-tested' for centuries, and if they did not have a good constitution, it would be a fatal thing, because they had initially set up the landing place in the mullah land, far from the capital and by the easternmost bay, and arranged only 100 men, all of which had such considerations.

It was much better than expected, Chen Lu was already able to walk on the ground early this morning, and Doctor Yu didn't know what method he used, so he applied a back injection on his body, and he got up early today, and the immediate effect was really comforting.

Thinking of the kindness of the Song people, when he was in bed, he thought about how to repay him. Although Chen Lu is a pedantic personality on weekdays, after this great change, he can be regarded as very experienced, so his temperament is much more resolute.

I already feel good, just walking around the neighborhood, although I am just helping to gossip in my illness, but this is also human nature, and I don't need to care too much, not to mention that this time the credit is the biggest for the family next door.

After going through this, my father and mother have promised that the doctor will send Min Niang to the academy, although Chen Lu is a little older, he is not yet nineteen, and his heart has also moved his mind, thinking that he can read a few words, and he has no other ability, it should not be difficult to go to the dock to do some copying and writing work, so that the family also has an Ansheng in the Song people's master.

Early in the morning, my father and mother went to the mullah land dock to do things, and the rice porridge that was hot on the tandoor was warm, and the rice was sent by the doctor yesterday. After turning around, I saw that the neighbors went to work at the Song Ren Merchant Station, so I used the porridge myself and returned to the shed to sit idly.

The traversers recruited all Han Chinese, not because they were unwilling to hire indigenous labor, but because they were helpless. Nowadays, the Nanyang countries, if you talk about recruitment, it is mainly the dependent people in the hands of the nobles, and the Hongyi is called a slave, in fact, it is not, whether it is the native or the Han people, the dependent lords are probably only for tax exemption, but similar to the customs of the Ming Dynasty, the ordinary natives are unwilling to do coolies for people, but the coolies sent by the lord are expensive, and only the Han people who immigrated are the most hard-working and hard-working, and they also have credit.

was thinking about things, but saw a person coming from the east, short clothes and short hair, who else would it be if it wasn't for the two days that Yu Shenyi had taken care of himself, and Yu Shenyi brought those two companions over as usual, but they didn't look like his apprentices.

Seeing that the divine doctor came, it was Lin Lao'er next door who stepped forward first, that Lin Lao'er was Zi Niang's grandfather, only fifty years old, lean and lean, with a pair of small eyes, like a mouse, it really didn't seem to be a handsome girl like Zi Niang. Zi Niang Laozi works in the port on weekdays, Zi Niang studies in the academy, this Lin Lao'er only helps at home on weekdays because of old illness, and it is still his own blessing.

Lin Lao'er suffered from Gu swelling, which was also the so-called schistosomiasis in later generations, of course, his family didn't know it at first, and the original family was only a chronic illness, and he did not extend medical treatment. It's just that I can't work weekdays, and I only do things at home. It was also a coincidence that day, Yu Pao happened to hear Ma Yazi and Fu Xiaofei arguing, so he asked Min Niang and Zi Niang to lead the way to treat Chen Lu.

In less than two days, the Han people here all knew what Doctor Yu said to pay attention to the snails away from the river, and they also listened to Yu Cannon's method diligently, and scattered lime in the land where water and grass were luxuriant. The chieftains here in Nanyang are accustomed to eating betel nut, often entertaining guests, and also making special utensils. There is only one case, lime to be added, lime is mostly mashed and burned with seaside shells, this way of eating was later introduced to the Ming Dynasty and India, because there is no shortage of lime locally.

Although there is only the dry season and the rainy season, Zhang Chai Lao is still used to the four seasons commensurate, just in the early spring, when the wind is light, but the current is not slow at all, if the anchor is put away, a right time can be put in Labuan, but he is still a little skeptical about the recent rumors.

Zhang Chai Lao's father was originally a boatsmith, and at the end of Jiajing, he was coerced by the Haikou to come from Chaozhou, and he also attacked this craft, but later the world was uneven, so he pulled up the clansmen and started a business. Originally, the best thing to do was Sulu and Java, when it came to navigation, the Chinese were not equal to the local natives, but when it came to seeing battles, the natives were by no means opponents of the Han people, especially the Teochew people were huddled together, and they were even more brave and ruthless.

It was only later that Hongyi successively built forts on the Spice Islands, and the trade became more and more difficult, and the fishing boats and merchant ships of the original cannibals and local natives may not be as good as the Cantonese ships and the lucky ships.

But then came Hongyi's big plywood boat, which was both high and the firearms were sharp, and the business gradually lost its prosperity over time. Later, I couldn't get by, so I had to lead my troops to this Bo mud country to make a living.

Fortunately, there are many natives in this place, because the tide is big, and it is not as good as Java and other inland oceans to make the rudder, and the merchant ships go along the tide more on weekdays, which is not good against the wind letters, and the ships moving back and forth are not much compared to Java, but they are handy in the local bullying of the natives, although they are not more glorious than the previous days, but at least the Zhang family has hundreds of mouths, and they have to eat and drink well.

Since moving to Bo Ni, the Zhang clan has built a village in a famous Kuala Pengyu bay between Boroni and Sabah, although the harbor is small, but it is also good to shelter from the wind, Zhang Chai Lao has started his ancestral livelihood, in the port to build ships to supply the merchants in the north of Borneo, but also to do business.

He also asked the villagers to publicize it when he returned to his hometown, and gradually gathered three or four hundred people in the north of Borneo.

These days is about to do a big deal, I heard that a group of short-haired strangers who call themselves Song people came overnight on Labuan Island on the side of Bornai, and the strange thing is that it is rumored that this short-haired is an iron boat that is not afraid of the direction of the tide and wind, and the iron boat first came, so that Su Tan in the city of Boroni was quite frightened, and it was the royal brother who contacted all over the country to expel the short-haired goods.

Naturally, King Zhang is also a clever person, and he will not only listen to the wind and rain, so he asked his cronies and villagers to ask around, only to know that there are less than 100 people who have gone ashore with short hair, and only 100 people have stayed on the island, but the iron boat has always stopped on Labuan Island.

At this time, the news that the short-haired people have a lot of wealth and goods, but although they can be the emperor of the land here, they may not be able to really meet the short-haired battle, after all, their fleet is not much better than the ordinary pirates of the Ming Dynasty, and they also rely on bows and arrows and white blades, but the short-haired ships, I heard that they are wrapped in iron sheets and can also go against the wind, ordinary rockets and gangs are not easy to use, but the firearms in their hands are only enough to hear a sound, and the number of people is not superior.

It's just that I haven't heard of anyone who has seen short-haired iron ships that can make knives, guns and firearms, Zhang Chai Lao wants to take possession of short-haired iron ships, so as to run rampant on the sea, but he has been thinking hard about feasible methods, until he finally solved this deadlock two days ago.

His own fleet was about to stop, and Zhang Dawang, who was waiting for news, saw a cronie rushing over from the dock, and the voice came before the person arrived.

"Big cabinet, just now Feng Tongshi came with news from the three islands, the people on the boat said that it had been rectified, the small one listened, and did not dare to delay for a moment, and the Baba rushed back to report."
