Chapter 237: I'm Here at the Ryukyus
Seeing Sun Yuanhua's surprised expression, Zhang Dou said indifferently: "Now that the people of Liaodong are still suffering under the iron hooves of Jiannu, we must rescue these millions of Liao people." The island of Eternal Life is limited and is now overcrowded.
Immigration is something that must be done and must be done. Not only Liaodong, but also the northern part of the Ming Dynasty are in a severe drought, and many places are not harvested. There are almost everywhere the homeless, so that these people can have a place to live, Zhang Dou will not hesitate to go to the eighteenth layer of hell after death! β
Zhang Dou's words made Sun Yuanhua ashamed, and he was still thinking about fame and face. Can face be eaten as a meal? Can it save the people from fire and water?
"Good! The virtuous son-in-law Gao Yi is ashamed of himself, and he is also an old man in the eighteenth layer of hell! After speaking, he took out the Great Seal of Eternal Life Island and stamped it on it.
Shi Changqing, who was stupid while listening, also showed a little puzzled look on his face. He knew the purpose of a contract, and in the future, the entire Ryukyu Kingdom would have the final say on Changsheng Island.
It didn't match the words of the saints he had learned, but deep down he told him that it was the only way to do it.
Just a few days before the expedition to Eternal Life Island, the Holy Decree once again arrived on Eternal Life Island. Zhang Dou was named Dingliao Bo this time, which is a rare title in recent years, showing that the Emperor of the Apocalypse has always supported Zhang Dou.
On March 15, tens of thousands of people gathered at the Dragon King Temple Wharf, and the sea boats almost covered the harbor.
Tall naval battleships, slender Exocet clippers. There are also countless lucky boats and sea firmaments, and you can't see the edge at a glance.
On the dock, Zhang Dou took Sun Yuxiu's hand and said, "Yuxiu! Don't work too a lot of things, try to let your subordinates do it. If you come back for your husband and find that Yuxiu has lost weight, beware of your ass blooming! β
Sun Yuxiu didn't expect Zhang Dou to say such words when he said goodbye, and his face was flushed with shame for a while. clenched his little fist and hit Zhang Dou's chest a few times in a row, which was more like a little lover being coquettish.
Sun Yuxiu, who had been beaten a few times, suddenly twisted her head to the side and retched, Zhang Dou hurriedly squatted down and gently patted his wife's back.
Mrs. Sun also saw her daughter's situation, and came over and asked, "Yuxiu!" Have you eaten something bad lately? β
"Mother! How so? Yuxiu's food is all prepared and delivered by a special person, and she won't eat bad things at all! Sun Yuxiu said.
Mrs. Sun gave her daughter a blank look, is it really good to show affection in front of herself? She suddenly thought of a possibility, picked up Sun Yuxiu and left.
"Zhang Dou! You come over to the old body! β
β¦β¦
The departure time was more than an hour later than scheduled, but everyone was in a good mood. Each soldier had an extra piece of silver in his arms, and everyone was discussing a big thing.
The handsome man has a back~~
Unfilial piety is great, this is not an empty word. The existence of Changsheng Island is gathered on Zhang Dou alone, once Zhang Dou makes a mistake, the powerful Changsheng Island may collapse in an instant.
Now it's different, if Sun Yuxiu gives birth to a boy for Zhang Dou. Then the young master of Immortal Island will appear, and the next generation of the core forces on the island will also have an object of allegiance.
The entire Immortal Island will become more stable, and the hearts of the people will be more stable. Sun Yuxiu's pregnancy made Zhang Dou happy and worried.
In this era, when a woman gives birth to a child, she is breaking through the ghost gate, and he vows to end the war in the Ryukyus as soon as possible and rush back to wait by his wife's side as soon as possible.
The ten Galen ships were named Sea Shark-class battleships by him, and at his feet was the flagship 500-ton Galen battleship Sea Shark 1.
This battleship was modified from Changsheng Island and was equipped with 36 long-barreled 18-pounder naval guns and 16 short-barreled 36-pounder Chuyang guns.
The 52-gun Sea Shark 1 is enough to squeeze into the ranks of third-class battleships, especially the newly cast 36-pounder short-barreled early sun cannon on Changsheng Island.
The barrel of this gun is extremely short, and the firing range is only a little more than a mile. It was a type of curved mortar, but his 36-pound shells could shatter all ship's planks.
At a distance of one mile, a single shell will surely make a hole in the ship's board with a radius of two feet, and even the strongest battleship will be destroyed if it is hit continuously.
The short-barreled Caron gun, known as the "Can Opener", became an instant killer of naval warfare as soon as it was equipped by the English Navy, and repeatedly used the power of the Caron gun to destroy enemy ships in close combat.
Since this cannon was cast by the Culon Iron Works in Scotland, it was named the Caron Cannon.
In this time and space, since it is a short-barreled mortar cannon cast by Sun Yuanhua, it is named after Sun Yuanhua's character. It's called the early sun cannon love, and the English people have the ability to bite themselves!
The first sun cannon is especially murderous when it fires scattered bullets when the two ships are very close to each other, and there are almost no living people on the deck when the cannon goes down.
With the existence of this kind of artillery, Zhang Dou finally had the qualifications to fight with the Western Dutch, Ganlasi, Franco, and the English who later arrived in Daming, and as long as they came to Daming, they had to abide by their own rules.
Those who dare to use force are directly sunk in the sea, and never return to Europe.
This time, Zheng Yiguan did not go to sea with Zhang Dou, since he bought a batch of artillery from Zhang Dou last time, he has successively bought hundreds of 3-pounder guns.
It seems that the major thing they want to do has been carried out to the final stage, and this operation of Zheng Yiguan in history has not been successful.
He could only flee the Wa Kingdom in embarrassment and return to his hometown in Fujian to run his maritime kingdom. Since then, he has gradually emerged and controlled the entire southeast coast of the Ming Dynasty.
Zheng Yiguan in this time and space has been funded by Zhang Dou, and I don't know if there will be a different ending.
If he succeeds in the Wa Kingdom, will there still be that maritime overlord who dominates the coast of the Ming Dynasty in the future?
Although Zheng Yiguan did not follow Zhang Dou to the sea, all the ten seas designated by Changsheng Island brought their own vassal merchants to follow.
They were responsible for transporting the heavy supplies needed by the Changxing Army, and the loot of Changsheng Island was also handed over to them at the same time.
There were more than 200 ships on the sea that they followed, accounting for most of the entire fleet.
Recently, Wang Gang and other ten designated businessmen of Changsheng Island have been mixing in various places, and the glass mirrors produced by Changsheng Island are goods that are in short supply.
Many businessmen from all over the world wanted to inquire about the origin of the glass mirror in them, but they were all sent away by these businessmen with a sentence from overseas red-haired people.
Nowadays, the glass mirror has become the most important source of income for Changsheng Island, and once it is lost, it will immediately fall into an economic crisis.
When the fleet entered the waters of the Ryukyus, ShΕshin's tears of excitement fell. The wish he had been waiting for for many years was finally coming true, albeit at a heavy price. As long as he can become the king of the Ryukyus from the beginning, everything is worth it.
"I'm here at the Ryukyus! Are you ready, Woko? β
