The gunboat flying the Yellow Dragon Flag was docked on the southern coast of Feilong Island, and fifteen or sixteen people walked down from the gunboat, five or six of whom were originally soldiers sent by Hou Taiyuan, and the others were soldiers of the Chinese Independence Army who operated the gunboat.

Li Han walked in front of more than ten people, strode to Hou Taiyuan, and said, "My subordinates have contacted His Royal Highness the Prince of Waiting, and the fleet on the sea is also the troops sent by the Prince to support the general, so the general does not need to be so vigilant." ”

"Is that true? Is it really the brothers of heaven who are causing trouble in South America? Hou Taiyuan took Li Han's hand and said excitedly.

"I didn't dare to deceive the general, when my brother found Shizi, the troops were still in southern Peru, and then I followed Shizi's troops to move in, successively through Bolivia, Paraguay, and finally in Rio Gro Sul in southern Brazil to establish a base.

After a pause in Rio Gro Sul for a while, His Royal Highness personally sent five hundred newly formed sailor brothers to escort us back to meet the general.

The ships on the sea now belong to the fleet under His Royal Highness. ”

Li Mingyuan sent reinforcements with a total of 530 soldiers, including 300 sailors, 200 infantry, and the remaining 30 were frogman troops directly under the command of Chen Sen, Chen Sen used to serve in the frogman unit, but with the capture of a large number of Brazilian warships and the rapid expansion of the Chinese navy, Chen Sen was promoted by two ranks, promoted from lieutenant to major, served as the commander of the support fleet, and concurrently served as the direct management of the thirty frogmen.

With two medium-sized sail warships, five merchant ships converted into warships, and seven gunboats, the support fleet sent by Li Mingyuan is not much worse than the remaining sea forces on Feilong Island, even compared to the Danish navy left behind.

The Danes were mainly concentrated in Europe, and the Danish were defeated in the Danish-Prussian War three years ago, not only losing a large area of land, but also losing a lot of their own naval forces, and the devastated Danes did not have the strength to devote a large number of navies to the Caribbean to maintain a few small islands with weak economic interests. Therefore, the Danish navy stationed in the Danish West Indies has only one ironclad ship and a few wooden warships, and in addition to being able to defend the defenses of the West Indies, the counterattack force is insufficient, and it cannot be compared with the navies of Britain, France, and the Netherlands in the Caribbean region.

The strength of the support fleet on the surface exceeds that of the pirates of Feilong Island and the black pirates of Haiti, after listening to Li Han's introduction, Hou Taiyuan looked at the sea again, and the feelings of worry and disappointment were swept away, with the support of the fleet sent by Li Mingyuan, the threat of Haitian pirates is not a trouble, if you want to go further, take the initiative to attack, and it is not difficult to seize Torti Island.

Hou Taiyuan was in a good mood, looking at the ships on the sea a little distracted, Li Han reminded loudly, "General, the brothers on the ship have been anchored at sea for a while, and they are still beckoned to get off the ship and rest on the island." ”

"Oh, when you're happy, you forget about business," Hou Taiyuan patted his head and said loudly, "On the sea is the brothers sent by the prince to support us, everyone lay down their weapons and get out of the way for the brothers to go ashore to rest." ”

Only a few people who knew that Li Mingyuan was in trouble in South America, Hou Taiyuan and Wang Yongtian, and the Chinese pirates at the bottom had not heard about Li Mingyuan, and as soon as Hou Taiyuan announced the arrival of reinforcements, many Chinese pirates were puzzled in their minds, there was only one Chinese pirate on Feilong Island in the Caribbean Sea, when will a new batch of Chinese pirates appear?

There were many doubts in his heart, but seeing that Li Han, who had a cordial conversation with Hou Taiyuan, was his own, and the more than ten sailors who followed Li Han ashore were also Han Chinese, the Chinese pirates armed with guns and weapons such as knives and sticks relaxed their vigilance, walked out of the rudimentary fortifications that were waiting for them seriously, and then cleared the obstacles on the coast in front of them under the leadership of several small pirate leaders, while the ships anchored on the coast sailed out of two small boats to guide the support fleet into the port.

Five merchant ships converted into warships, two warships, and the remaining six gunboats entered the harbor one after another, and Chen Sen left some sailors on board to perform guard duties, and then took a few officers and Hou Taiyuan to the base in the center of the island.

Walking into the simple wooden house in the base, Hou Taiyuan greeted, "The island is dilapidated, and it is not as good as the foundation laid by your brothers in South America. ”

"Before I followed the world, I slept in the Peruvian mine, and the environment was much worse than on the island, so why not say it." Chen Sen waved his hand generously and said with a smile, "The brothers of the heavenly kingdom are one and the same root, and when the prince heard that the brothers of the heavenly kingdom were suffering and suffering in the Caribbean Sea, he felt sad and blamed himself, so he was specially sent to lead a group of soldiers and ships to support the general." ”

"The prince of the world is generous and kind, and he cares deeply about us and other overseas remnants, and Hou is very grateful."

Feilong Island is in crisis and is about to be destroyed, at this time, Li Mingyuan sent soldiers to support Feilong Island, which is the most powerful support for all pirates on Feilong Island, and Hou Taiyuan sincerely thanked Li Mingyuan for his help.

"There is no distinction between the family, and the Son of the World, as the only living leader of the Kingdom of Heaven, should find a way for his brothers in the Kingdom of Heaven to live in exile."

After the fall of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, the top leaders of the Heavenly Kingdom did not all die, Yang Fuqing, the two nephews of the Heavenly King Hong Xiuquan, and some other lesser-known Heavenly Kings were hiding in various places, and in terms of status, they were higher than Li Mingyuan, the prince of the prince, and the only leader in Chen Sen's mouth was a little strange in Hou Taiyuan's heart.

Hou Yutian, the chief general of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom's water division, belongs to the Tianwang line, objectively speaking, it does not belong to the same faction as the Taiping Army led by Li Xiucheng and Li Shicheng, all as Hou Yutian's generals, Hou Taiyuan heard Chen Sen's words, and his heart was a little dissatisfied, the two nephews of the Heavenly King were still there, and Li Mingyuan regarded himself as the heir of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom.

Hou Taiyuan's face changed in Chen Sen's eyes,

"Three years after the fall of the Kingdom of Heaven, the remnants of the Heavenly Kingdom brothers were not incognito, and they were worried every day that the Manchu Tatars would be liquidated or sold overseas as slaves.

If it weren't for the son of the world who stepped forward and led his brothers to revolt, my brothers and I would probably still be mining in the mines, living a numb and dark life. ”

Chen Sen's eyes showed fanaticism, and he didn't care about the reaction of Taiyuan and the others, and continued, "The son of the world is wise and martial, and he is favored by God, and he gives the prince wisdom and courage in his dreams, and entrusts him with the important task of rebuilding the kingdom of heaven.

In Rio Gro Sul, each Chinese laborer who followed the son of the world was rewarded with 300 acres of land, while the more than 2,000 brothers of the Heavenly Kingdom who followed the general at the earliest received more land, and each brother plus the newly married daughter-in-law received at least more than 1,000 acres of land, and the brothers who had made meritorious contributions received more land.

As for the descendants of the Heavenly King who are hiding everywhere, if they defect to the prince, presumably the prince will not treat them badly, but if they have ideas that they shouldn't have, our brothers will not agree to it first! ”

Li Mingyuan instructed Chen Sen before the departure of the support fleet, instructing him to persuade the Chinese pirates to join the Chinese Independence Army with good words, but Chen Sen entered Feilong Island, witnessed the tragic situation of Feilong Island, and was dissatisfied with Hou Taiyuan's reaction, so he was excited and directly picked out his words.

"The prince of the prince is kind-hearted, and he is not afraid of the risks of thousands of miles of sea to send your brothers to support Feilong Island, we will remember it."

Wang Yongtian saw the stalemate of the scene, and said in a conciliatory manner, "General Hou has lived on an isolated island outside the territory for a long time, and I don't know the specific situation of the brothers in South America. ”

"It's okay, I just said a few more words in a moment of excitement just now, you don't have to take it to heart."

After the excitement, Chen Sen thought of what Li Mingyuan had explained, regained his senses, and said in a slow tone.

Because the words just now made both of them a little embarrassed, and with a few polite words, Wang Yongtian found an opportunity to leave the wooden house with Hou Taiyuan and Li Han and go to the back compartment to discuss things.

"General, Brother Chen outside has already made his words clear, and he has taken refuge in serving Wang Shizi and joined the Chinese Independent Army. The brothers on the island will have a good arrangement. ”

"Yongtian, what do you mean, I understand that it is good for the brothers to take refuge in the prince of the king, I heard the introduction of the brothers Li Han, the prince of the prince is a magnanimous person, and the brothers will not be treated favoritally when they come to his hands, but there is a thorn in my heart, so I take refuge in the prince of the king, and I can't get over the road in my heart."

"General, now is not the time for the Kingdom of Heaven to still exist, when the Kingdom of Heaven was at its peak, all the princes worked together to build the Kingdom of Heaven, which battle was not fought by the Tartars who were defeated and retreated, but there was an incident in the Tianjing City, the King of Heaven killed the King of the East, and then killed the King of the North, and even His Royal Highness the King of Wings was forced to leave Tianjing, and since then the Kingdom of Heaven has been in decline, and finally perished by the Tartars.

The destruction of the Kingdom of Heaven was not the death of the Manchu Dynasty, but the internal chaos of the Kingdom of Heaven, and if the general is still obsessed with the idea of the portal faction, where should Feilong Island go, and where will the general put hundreds of brothers on the island! ”

Wang Yongtian joined the Chinese pirates, delivering supplies and transmitting intelligence for Feilong Island, strictly speaking, Wang Yongtian and Hou Taiyuan are cooperative relations, Wang Yongtian does not belong to the Heavenly Sailor System, he helped Hou Taiyuan just didn't want the Heavenly soldiers in the Caribbean to die tragically, but today Hou Taiyuan's performance made him a little disappointed, although Hou Taiyuan has been the leader of the Chinese pirates on Feilong Island for more than a year, and has greatly improved in terms of overall pirate management compared with the past, but he still hasn't gotten rid of the identity of a middle-level officer in essence, Considering problems is only clinging to the surface and does not start from the big picture.

Wang Yongtian's persuasion made Hou Taiyuan feel ashamed, and Feilong Island's ability to gain a foothold in the Caribbean mainly relied on Wang Yongtian's intelligence support and management in all aspects. Without Wang Yongtian's help, Hou Taiyuan would not even be able to get past the initial foothold stage.

Taking refuge in Li Mingyuan is not only Hou Taiyuan's own business, but also related to the future of hundreds of Chinese pirates on Feilong Island, Hou Taiyuan does not want to let the Chinese pirates on the island continue to be in danger because of his own reasons, and after Wang Yongtian persuaded him, he agreed to take refuge in Li Mingyuan.

Hou Taiyuan opened his mouth to agree, not only Wang Yongtian breathed a sigh of relief, Li Han also put down a stone in his heart, followed the Chinese Independence Army to fight everywhere, he saw the Chinese Independence Army's high morale and thriving scene, after the end of the Paraguayan War, he has decided to join the Chinese Independence Army, his current identity is actually a mid-level officer in the support fleet, the rank of lieutenant, and Li Han together with Li Mingyuan's nine soldiers also joined the Chinese Independence Army, in the support fleet held different positions.

Hou Taiyuan agreed to join the Chinese Independent Army, Li Han didn't need to feel embarrassed, and comforted with a smile, "The Kingdom of Heaven does not necessarily have to be the heir of the Kingdom of Heaven to be the monarch, His Royal Highness the Prince of Heaven has been instructed by the Heavenly Father, and it is reasonable for the Heavenly Father to re-appoint the leader of the world, and it is reasonable for the Son of Heaven to lead us, and the general does not have to be entangled." ”

"The prince of the king has created a foundation in South America, and the other surviving princes or descendants of the king of heaven can only hide, whether from the legal principle or the actual strength, the prince of the king is the unique successor of the kingdom of heaven, and the general can relax and follow the prince closely, and he has not seen the time when the kingdom of heaven is strong again."

"I was confused just now, the prince of the king can lead the brothers of heaven to live a good life, he is the most suitable leader of the kingdom of heaven, Lao Hou used to follow His Royal Highness King Sen to serve the kingdom of heaven, and now he follows the prince of the king to serve the kingdom of heaven is also for the sake of allegiance to the kingdom of heaven.

The two brothers kindly advised, Hou is very grateful, let's go out and explain to Brother Chen now that all the Heavenly Brothers of Feilong Island have officially joined the command of the prince of the prince to jointly build a new heavenly kingdom. ”

Reaching a consensus to join the Chinese Independence Army, the three of them no longer stayed in the cubicle, and walked out of the cubicle towards the wooden house.
