Japan, Sagami country, Kamakura Castle.

Kamakura Shogun Yoshiyuki heard his Japanese concubine wake up early this morning and reported a message that surprised him - his dear brother Takeyoshinobu arrived at the port of Kamakura on the exploration ship "Shenzhou".

How did Wu Yoshishin come to Japan?

Could it be that he succeeded himself as the "Kamakura General"?

Impossible, right? Such a thing should have been ordered in advance, and it is impossible to carry out a surprise attack, right? It's rare for the third child to do himself? If you want to yourself, you shouldn't send the second child here!

With a head full of questions, Takeshi met Takeshi in the hall of Kamakura Castle, whose face was slightly pale due to seasickness.

"Second brother, what's the matter? How did you come to Japan? Did the third child let you be an Overseer? ”

Wu Yixin sat on a rose chair, looked at the Japanese maid beside Wu Yiyong with a smile, shook his head and said, "The third child is so stupid? Now let you go back home? Do you want to choose a veteran, does he support it? If you are selected, even if you are not the head of state, you can enter the cabinet as a scholar. You became a scholar, does he have a fourth term? ”

"Then what are you doing in Japan? Inspection? ”

"What are you inspecting?" Wu Yixin waved his hand, "Let my brother check my brother?" How can there be such a thing? ”

"Then you are ......"

"Don't sell Guanzi," Wu Yixin took the tea bowl handed to him by a Japanese maid, "I went to the samurai village in the Americas to take up my post!" ”

"The samurai of the Americas?" Wu Yiyong was stunned, "That place where birds don't, where the prisoners are exiled, you go?" You won't ......."

"What, what?" Wu Yixin took a sip of tea, "What exiled prisoner?" It's the chosen continent, and there's a lot to be done! ”

"Did the third child say this?"

"I don't believe what he said," Wu Yi believed, "this is what our father said!" ”

"Our father?" Wu Yiyong was stunned.

"During this time, my father was busy with the colonization of the Americas," Wu Yi believed, "and he asked for 8,000 households from Xiao Sese and Da Okuye, all of whom were to be shipped to the New World.

He also ordered the Republic Bank, the Bank of Tianjin, and the Doctor Group to jointly launch the Xinxiang Concession Chamber of Commerce, which was responsible for building a fleet of immigrants, setting up a colonial base in the New World, and developing gold mines. The initial capital alone is 3 million taels, it seems that Daddy is going to do a big job in the Americas! ”

"But the port of Samuraiso in the Americas is 15,000 miles away from Kamakura!" Wu Yiyong shook his head, "If you count the voyage from Shanghai to Kamakura, a 'Discovery' class is a maximum of three round trips in two years. Send 200 people back and forth, and send up to 600 people to the Great Oriental in two years...... If there are 60,000 people to be transported, there must be 100 'Discovery' class ships running for two years! ”

"Daddy has placed an order for 200 'American' ocean-going carriers." Wu Yixin said with a smile, "It is the 'discovery' class that has expanded its transportation capacity, which can transport 300 immigrants across the ocean at a time, and can also carry a large number of supplies, and all of them can be put into shipping within 5 years." When the time comes, 6,000 people will be able to cross the ocean at a time.

In addition, the relay transport method can be adopted. The route is divided into Haizhou-Kamakura section, Kamakura-Liangshan Town section, and Liangshan Town-Samurai Town section.

In this way, the efficiency of transportation can be improved a lot, and it is possible to transport 15,000 to 20,000 people a year.

And now not only has we set up a chartered chamber of commerce, but there are also seven or eight other chambers of commerce in preparation. If all the capacity is exerted, 100,000 a year is not a problem! ”

"So many?" Wu Yiyong couldn't believe it.

"It depends on how much gold there is!" Wu Yixin said with a smile, "As long as it is profitable, after fifteen years at most, the population of the Americas should exceed 1 million...... At that time, it will be possible for the Americas to establish a cooperative republic. ”

"Founding a nation in the Americas?" Wu Yiyong immediately understood Wu Yixin's thoughts, "Second brother, do you want to be the head of the Americas?" ”

"Hehe," Wu Yixin nodded, "What?" Will it work? ”

Now the head of the Great Zhou Republic is firmly grasped by Wu Yijiu! Even if Wu Yixin is not the head of state for a long time in the future, there will still be Wu Yiyong, and I don't know when it will be Wu Yixin's turn.

Therefore, Wu Yixin wanted to be the head of the Americas or the president of the United States for a few years...... This is also the founding father of the United States! It's awesome to think about!

"This is what the third child told you?" Wu Yiyong looked at the second brother and asked.

"Ah," Wu Yixin smiled, "I still took the idea, and I just refer to his words." ”

Fooled!

Wu Yiyong sighed, it's okay now! Most of the time I have to be a Kamakura general for the rest of my life, and the second child can only be the commander of the United States for a lifetime......

Wu Yiyong still knows Wu Yijiu...... In fact, Wu Yixin was indeed fooled by him, and later he really became the commander of the United States.

However, he did not serve all his life, and only served two eight terms as the Grand Commander before retiring due to illness - the development of the North American continent was not as easy as Yoshinobu imagined now!

Even with gold and later silver, it took Wu Yixin 30 years to barely reach 2 million people under his rule. It was only after a few years that he received permission from the ruling government of the Great Zhou Republic to establish the United States of North America attached to the Great Zhou and became the first Great Commander.

He was already in his sixties that year, and later served as a commander for another eight years, and died not long after retiring. Almost his life has been dedicated to the American people...... It's so touching, full of internationalist spirit!

……

The second half of Wu Yixin's life belongs to the American people, and Zhao Kai and Wu Meiniang, a model couple, are heartbroken for the future of the "Australian" people.

Their development of "Australia" is based on a completely different model from that of the Americas. First, there are no military households, and second, they do not rely much on the Chamber of Commerce.

There is no need for military households, and the aborigines of the New Song Dynasty (Australia) are too backward to need a well-organized military household group to clean them up.

In addition to the natives who are at most hundreds of thousands, there will be no other enemies on the isolated continent of the New Song Dynasty. So there is no need for strong force.

The reason for the rapid discovery of gold in the Americas was that the Native Americans would collect and refine gold. The natives of the New Song Dynasty were even more backward and could not collect and refine gold. If you have to rely on the Eastern Song Dynasty immigrants to find it themselves, you don't know when there will be a big discovery.

Without the hard currencies of gold, silver, and brass, how could merchants be interested in the New Song Dynasty?

Now the Eastern Song Dynasty is also a world empire! Overseas, it not only owns the New Song Dynasty, but also controls the Singju Peninsula, the Cochin Kingdom, the Chao Phraya River Basin, the Island of Ceylon, and several spice islands east of Java.

Among these overseas territories, there are many places with more investment value than the New Song Dynasty, so the merchants of the Eastern Song Dynasty will not be too interested in the New Song Continent at all.

Only Zhao Kai and Wu Meiniang will invest heavily in the New Song Dynasty for the purpose of establishing the "Second Great Song Dynasty" overseas.

Therefore, the development of the New Song Dynasty mainly relied on the promotion of the Eastern Song Dynasty.

In addition to exiling prisoners to increase the population of the Eastern Song Dynasty, the Eastern Song Dynasty court used the method of low price or white Song land to attract the people of the Eastern Song Dynasty to cross the sea to settle in the New Song Dynasty.

Although the Eastern Song Dynasty invested a lot, the speed of colonial entry was still relatively slow. That's tens of thousands of people a year......

While the development of the New Song Dynasty was slow, the Eastern Song Dynasty achieved considerable success in the Chao Phraya River Valley.

The war against the Zhenla Kingdom, presided over by Ji Jun, was successful in the seventh year of the Eastern Song Dynasty. The expeditionary forces of the Eastern Song Dynasty not only defeated the vassal states of Chenla, Luo Hu and Siam, on the banks of the Chao Phraya River, but also broke through the capital of Chenla, Angkor, the following year!

Not only did it sack the splendid Angkor Thom, but it also forced the Kingdom of Chenla to sign the Treaty of Angkor, ceding the dependent kingdoms of Rahu and Siam, and recognizing the entire Chao Phraya River valley as belonging to the Eastern Song Dynasty.

"Official, the slave family of the Treaty of Angkor has read it several times, and there seems to be no problem."

In the Jiangning Palace, Wu Meiniang finally closed the text of the "Treaty of Angkor", and said with a smile to Zhao Kai, who was reading the "Bright Heaven Sutra" on the side: "It's better to approve it...... Don't keep Luo Hu and Siam, merge them and set up a small Song Dynasty. ”

"Xiao Song?" Zhao Kai put down the "Bright Heaven Sutra" in his hand, "This name is inappropriate, right?" ”

"So...... Called Southern Song Dynasty? Wu Meiniang asked.

"Not good, not good." Zhao Kai shook his head, "Let's call it Siam, Siam in the north, Luo Hu in the south, each with a word." The lord of the kingdom can be called the king of Siam, and he is of the same rank as the king of Cochin. ”

"Okay, it's up to the official." Wu Meiniang smiled and looked at her husband, "Have you read the "Bright Sky Theory"? ”

"Look at it." Zhao Kai nodded.

"How?"

Zhao Kai said: "The Manichaean gang has stiff wings......

Wu Meiniang sneered: "Why is it hard?" How dare they let Ceylon out of our grasp? ”

"How dare you?" Zhao Kai said with a smile, "Our naval army in the Little Western Ocean is not something that Manichaeism and Yelu Dashi can deal with...... However, this "Bright Sky Principle Sutra" is still quite demagogic. No wonder both Jerodashi and the Golden Horde will convert! ”

"It's all demagogy!" Wu Meiniang was a little disdainful, "By the way, they seem to be still exploring the Black Continent...... Official, are we going to intervene? ”

"Plug it in." Zhao Kai said, "But you don't have to compete with Manichaeans for territory. We don't have so many people in the Black Continent now! ”

"But the land that should be enclosed still has to be encircled!" Wu Meiniang said, "It's always good to have more circles, maybe you can use it in the future!" ”

The Manichaean and Oshii Empire's current colonization activities on the Black Continent not only sent research ships, but also gathered a fleet to capture the colonial city of Zanzibar, the Great Cannibal, and established the first colony in Black Africa!

This also marked the beginning of the Dashi Empire's march towards the sea, becoming a maritime empire with colonies.
