The development of the starting point city is very strong, and he hopes to save more vitality for Daming in the process of changing the world.

With Wang Yue's original intention, there is no idea of being an emperor, the emperor is not free, the emperor is too tired, the emperor will eventually be abandoned by the times, and the emperor cannot retire yet, this is a lifelong career.

His ideal is to live a convenient material life in his previous life in Daming, and to live a life of picking chrysanthemums under the east fence and seeing Nanshan leisurely after retirement. Or the sun, the waves, the golden sand beach, the happy days of the big and small beauties in bikinis.

The emperor is a unique product of this era, and the people of this era recognize this.

Since it is a constitutional monarchy, even if the Zhu family is chosen, the emperor is just a mascot, so Wang Ni, the queen, is a little embarrassed, after all, it was the Wang family who set the emperor in the air, Zhu Cihong has no personality, can there be no complaints in his heart?

If the Wang family is on the throne, it will be even more embarrassing.

Wang Yue said: "There are still eight years until Nizi is sixteen years old, let's see when the time comes, if Nizi is unwilling, can our brother still stand by and watch?" ”

"Okay." Wang Zhuo thought about it, it was too early to worry.

Chongzhen's attitude towards these two family affairs is positive, and it can even be said that he can't wait.

The day after returning to the palace, he ordered someone to choose the auspicious day of marriage, so the news of the marriage between the royal family and the Wang family spread far and wide.

If it is a peaceful and prosperous era, Chongzhen's move can be described as a great favor to the Wang family, but in the current domestic situation, discerning people can see that this is Chongzhen's means to envelop the Wang family.

The emperor wants to marry a princess, this is okay. But Chongzhen has to announce to the world as if he made a will, and the candidates for the crown princess and the next queen will be decided by him in advance, which is a big deal, especially since this queen is still Wang Yue's sister.

A group of ministers who did not deal with Wang Yue could not sit still, and the opposing recitals flew to the palace like snowflakes.

Chongzhen's attitude towards this is to ignore it and not look at it. When the court was discussing, there were still many people who jumped out and chattered crookedly, Chongzhen is a sentence, this is Lao Tzu's family matter, you don't need to care.

Among them, the most embarrassing person is Princess Kunxing. Originally, she regarded Wang Yue as a big brother, why did she suddenly become her fiancé? She didn't have the embarrassment to run to the starting point for several days.

Seven days later, two engagement ceremonies took place at the same time, and the people of the starting point city were very lively, like a festival.

————————————————————

In Batavia, 10,000 miles from the starting point (5,223 kilometers from Jakarta in a straight line from Beijing), a fleet of Dutch reinforcements arrived as scheduled, and many cheered crowds on the pier, many waving small flags to welcome the fleet from afar.

The general who boarded the dock looked in high spirits, and there was no doubt that this was a formidable fleet. There were a total of thirty warships, and in his opinion, it was enough to teach those arrogant Ming people a lesson.

But Governor Robben, who came to greet him, didn't show much surprise, which made Kuichi feel very uncomfortable. But instead of showing his face, he stepped forward with a smile.

"Your Excellency the Governor, I think I have brought you the most anticipated reinforcements." He stepped forward to speak.

Robben smiled a little reluctantly, and when shaking hands, he said: "Your Excellency, we have worked hard all the way, according to our many understandings, our enemy is not only very mysterious, but also very powerful, you must be ready to fight a vicious battle." ”

Puzzled, he asked, "Why did Your Excellency the Governor say that?" ”

Robben said: "This is not the place to talk, let's go to the governor's palace to talk in detail." ”

In the Governor's Palace of Batavia, under the parasol in the courtyard, Governor Robben and Tsuichi sat down, and the servants brought steaming coffee.

There was also a bearded officer present, and Robben said, "This is Colonel Ryan, the military commander of Batavia, listen to what he has to say." ”

"General Yuyi, since the Ming people occupied the Ming Dynasty, we have been collecting relevant information about the Ming Navy. Now it can be confirmed that Dayuan was occupied by the Tiance Army Navy of the Ming Kingdom. This army, which was supposed to have been formed two years earlier, rose rapidly in the wars with the northern Tatars and became a formidable military force in the Ming state.

Colonel Ryan said: "The navy of the Tiance Army has been established for a shorter time, according to the news from the Zheng family in Fujian, all the warships of the Tiance Army Navy are made of steel, and they are huge, sailless and automatic, and the speed is amazing, and the range of the artillery may have exceeded three kilometers." ”

The more he listened, his eyes widened, and he said in disbelief: "This, how is this possible?" ”

In this era, there is no such thing as a century-old navy, but it is still a long time to build a strong navy, and the rapid rise of the Tiance Navy is too inconsistent with the law of development of things, and the warships are so incredibly beyond cognition.

Governor Robben said, "Your Excellency, maybe that's the truth. Moreover, we also sent some merchant ships to Hong Kong Island in the Ming Kingdom in the name of trade to inquire about the situation, and many people have seen this navy warship in the distance, and it is true that there are no sails. It is said that the largest of them was more than ten times larger than the Galen ship, which is why I agreed to cooperate with those damned Spaniards. ”

Colonel Ryan added, "Recently, the warships of the Tiance Army may have reached our Batavian waters to reconnoitre, and the soldiers on the top of our church often see strange ships in the distance. ”

His face became grim, his optimism swept away, he looked at the fleet on the sea in the distance and asked, "Can you confirm the number of warships in the Tiance Army Navy now?" ”

Colonel Ryan said: "According to our observations and the summary of information provided by the Zheng family in Fujian, the total number of warships of the Tiance Navy should be about twenty, and there are about ten near the South China Sea. ”

In fact, the Tiance Navy will already have two dock landing ships, six supply ships, 12 maritime surveillance warships, four coast guard warships, eight passenger and cargo ro-ro ships, and one 10,000-ton hospital ship, a total of 33 warships.

This does not include product tankers, fishing vessels and motorized cargo vessels.

Hearing this, he breathed a sigh of relief, and his total number of warships had an absolute advantage.

"The Ming Kingdom is indeed a huge empire, and it has the ability to build such a powerful fleet in such a short period of time, but the navy not only has a powerful fleet, but also has rich experience in naval warfare."

The Netherlands is a maritime power, and he is still very confident, and then he said: "There is news that you may not know, at the moment in Europe, the relationship between our Kingdom of the Netherlands and the British is very tense, and there is a fear that a war between the two countries will break out in the country. In order to ensure the interests of our trade, this reinforcement of mine was born. ”
