On November 13 of the eighth year of Wanli, when most of the world in the Ming Dynasty was covered by ice and snow, in the South Sea, thousands of miles away, it was still a midsummer.

Although the land had appeared in sight yesterday afternoon, Shi Yiwen did not order the landing, but ordered to slow down and sail around the land, and soon, they found a spacious estuary, and then anchored about five miles from the mouth.

In the following time, Shi Yiwen stood at the stern of the ship, dressed in a magenta official robe, staring at this land full of dense forests with a solemn expression. At this time, his mood can be said to be a little agitated.

Perhaps no one else knew what it meant to survive, but he knew very well what this voyage meant.

Perhaps, because of this, he ordered the ships to anchor and then waited patiently for the next day's dawn.

Early in the morning of November 13, after the morning had risen, and after the sailors had all enjoyed a hearty breakfast, the landing began, and the ships "New Hope" and "Xintiandi" sailed first to a position about two miles from the coast, and then laid down four small sampans, which were small but carried four small guns.

Thus began his landing with Shi Yiwen in the bow of the boat, and the commander went ashore in an armed dinghy flying the Ming flag—even the "Sun and Moon Flag" was specially prepared for this voyage after he consulted the Wanli Emperor.

In addition to Li Desheng of the "New Hope", Ma Longlin, the captain of the "Xintiandi", and his younger brother Ma Longji also went ashore in their respective dinghys. The dinghy sailed into the estuary of the river and then reached the land of the rainforest, where they had a special landing ceremony after the landing.

Shi Yiwen, who was wearing a big red official robe of a Ming five-grade official, wore a jade belt around his waist and held high the Ming flag with both hands, and two heavily armed captains carried the red "Ming" flag, which was the most traditional flag of the Ming Dynasty, which was different from the "Sun and Moon Flag" made by Shi Yiwen. The rest of the crew landed closely behind them. The air here is exceptionally fresh and refreshing. When the gentle sea breeze blew, the crew members were all excited and excited, and they were all there to look at this strange land with great energy. Even if the land in their sight is a rainforest.

In fact, it is not only the rainforest, but at least in the estuary area, there are also seaside meadows that stretch a few hundred meters inland, which is why Shi Yiwen chose to land here.

"Perhaps, that's why Raffles chose to land here!"

However, Shi Yiwen didn't have too much emotion, the whole person seemed quite excited, and as soon as he went ashore, he first knelt on his knees, kissed the sand and soil on the beach, and then was so excited that he said with tears in his eyes.

"Heaven bless us to reach this land!"

Maybe other people don't know why Shi Yiwen is so excited, but all the entourage still follow his example and kneel down to kiss the land, and they are also very excited in their hearts, because they all know very well what it means today, which means that they will open up territory for the Ming Dynasty.

At this time, under the bright sunlight near the equator, the beach and the sea reflect a strong and even dazzling light, after the initial preparations, the next step is to hold an occupation ceremony, all of which are familiar and unfamiliar to the people of this era, familiar with the history books about "Yan Ran Legong" records can be said to be endless, and strange is that this kind of occupation ceremony is different from the traditional "Yan Ran Legong".

Zhu Mingzhong, who was wearing a Ming Dynasty uniform, held a wat in both hands, and then announced loudly and solemnly to the land.

"I, Shi Yiwen, the General Department of Taxation of the Ming Dynasty, in front of everyone, officially declare that I will occupy this place in the name of His Majesty the Emperor of the Great Ming Dynasty! Since then, this place has been the land of my Great Tomorrow Dynasty! ”

When the words fell, Shi Yiwen even took out the Shang Fang sword rewarded by the Wanli Emperor and swung his sword to cut off a few branches and thatch around him, symbolizing the completion of the conquest, which did not require force or consent from the local natives.

"Alright, now please make a name for yourself and witness this conquest!"

When those present heard the command, they all made oral statements at his request. Subsequently, the documents of the fleet were called to record the statements of Evenwin and others and seal them. Shi Yiwen didn't even know what he had created, and from then on, every time the explorers and captains of the Ming Dynasty sailed, notaries, pens, paper and ink became their indispensable equipment.

"With the authority given to me by His Majesty the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty, I officially name this place "Nantianmen"! ”

In fact, the island of another world is called "Singapore", but now, the reason why Edwin named this place "South Heavenly Gate" is because he hopes that this place can become the southern gate of the future of the Ming Dynasty, the southern gate that blocks all dangers from the door.

"Director-General, what's next?"

After the occupation ceremony, the expression was a little trance-like, and when I said this, it still felt like a dream, and that's it...... Even if it's a frontier?

This is too child's play!

Indeed, for the people of this era, it is difficult for them to understand such a conquest, in their opinion, the conquest should be a large army to kill, and then attack the city and destroy the country, they never thought that there would be such a conquest, and so high-sounding, so that they will not take the locals as people.

"Build the city!"

Pointing to the flat meadow by the estuary, Shi Yiwen directly said the best job of a Chinese person.

"Building a city?"

In the face of everyone's doubts, Shi Yiwen continued.

"It's all rainforest all around, and from today onwards, half of our crew will come down every day to cut down wood and build a city, and then organize an expedition to go inland along the estuary, and if there are natives, try to communicate with them and show them who we are, and I think some of them will be willing to help us build the city......"

Just give them enough money!

In this world, the reason why Westerners were able to conquer most of the world and make most of the world their colony was never only by relying on the strength of ships and guns, not only on themselves, but also on the local leading party.

Lead the way...... There should be quite a few here! After all, in the other world, it was the Briton Stamford Raffles who was able to occupy Singapore by the Belt and Road Party.

What's more, now is the time to lead the way for the Great Tomorrow Dynasty!
