Chapter 104: Conquest of the Americas (1)

The weather in North America has been particularly strange this year, and at this time in previous years, it has been snowing and freezing for thousands of miles. Except for being a little colder, it's basically no different from autumn now.

"Mr. Ye, wait, I have something to tell you."

Su Sanniang finally saw Ye Tan. For so many days, she has been looking for Ye Tan. I probably knew that Ye Tan was going to leave soon, not to mention that I didn't know what year and month it would have to be.

Ye Tan looked into Su Sanniang's eyes and said directly: "Say it." ”

"I'm Emperor Hong's man, and I want to sell those arms of yours." you

Su Sanniang's eyes did not dodge, pointed to the equipment on the soldiers who boarded the ship, looked at each other firmly, and said.

"I believe you are Emperor Hong's man, but are you rich?"

Su Sanniang shook her head, her eyes were firm, believing that she could convince Ye Tan: "Do you only have money in your eyes?" Do you know how many people in the country are waiting for the arrival of the righteous army? ”

"Miss Su, to be honest, although I am far away. However, what happened in Tianjing is quite clear. Therefore, I dare not agree with what you said about the righteous army. If you believe this, I'm afraid you won't be able to convince yourself. But for Emperor Hong's actions, there is only admiration. He did what many people wanted to do, but didn't dare to do. ”

Su Sanniang gritted her teeth, her eyes were misty, and she was suffering and struggling in her heart, and then said firmly: "Say, what conditions do you want?" My Su Sanniang's self-confidence is still Puliu's posture, if you get into your eyes Mr. Ye, my Sanniang will have nothing to say. There is only one condition, and it is to ask for arms. ”

Ye Tan pinched his chin and stared at Su Sanniang like this, from top to bottom, as if he wanted to see through Su Sanniang, but he kept silent, causing a huge invisible pressure on Su Sanniang.

When Su Sanniang was so desperate that she was about to collapse, Ye Tan said, "Miss Su, how much arms do you think you are worth?" ”

Su Sanniang's beautiful eyes quickly ignited hope, "Mr. Ye, I..."

Before she finished speaking, Ye Tan suddenly shook her head. It's like pouring cold water on her head. But she didn't give up easily, and she always had an intuition in her heart that she had just made it self-defeating.

"Mr. Ye, let's talk about your conditions!"

"Miss Su, those arms of mine belong to the most advanced weapons in the world, and they are unique! Not even in the United States, do you think I'll take out? Therefore, I cannot agree to this request of yours. ”

"Then flintlock rifles and Napoleonic field guns are always fine, right?"

Su Sanniang thought of the big blades used by those brothers and sisters, but she still didn't give up and retreated.

"Heaven has the virtue of a good life, and those people are innocent. In this way, people under 30 middle-aged age can exchange me for a flintlock rifle and 10 bullets for a person. 3,000 men for a 12-pounder Napoleonic field gun, 5,000 for a 24-pounder Napoleonic field gun, and 8,000 men for a 36-pounder Napoleonic field gun. One shell for every 50 people. As long as you are not a big smoker, lacking hands and legs, sneaking, abducting and gambling, as well as your so-called rebels, and those captured by the Qing army, I will have as many others as I want. Finally, there is one condition, if you don't agree, all the previous conditions will be null and void. ”

"Mr. Ye, as long as you promise to give me arms, I can promise you any conditions!"

Hearing that Ye Tan agreed to sell arms to her, Su Sanniang kept nodding and saying like a chicken pecking rice. The latter words were automatically filtered by her.

"Miss Su, you have to listen to my conditions clearly, once you agree, you can't go back."

Ye Tan emphasized again.

Su Sanniang shook her head. Just now, he even sent someone to him, but Ye Tan didn't even look at it. She wouldn't think there were more difficult conditions than that.

Ye Tan clapped his palms and smiled: "Very good!" My conditions are very simple! I want you to be the person in charge of arms sales to Tianjing in my Phoenix City. And it has always been. As soon as you agree, I'll put the weapons on board as soon as you agree. And send a team of 50 people, 24 hours a day dedicated to your personal safety. ”

This is a very contradictory request that Su Sanniang feels. However, once you agree, it means that you will leave Tianjing forever. If you don't agree, don't count on those arms. Thinking of those brothers and sisters who were holding big knives and spears and fell under the guns, Su Sanniang's face changed. In the end, he gritted his teeth and nodded in agreement.

"Miss Su, we have a great cooperation! If you don't have enough people, you can tell the head of my team. ”

Turning his head, Ye Tan said to Fang Jingyuan on the side: "Fang Jingyuan, go and load the 50,000 guns, 8 million rounds of ammunition and propellants, 100 Napoleonic field guns, and 50,000 shells stored in the school building." Ordered Zhang Gongyi and Bu Kui to protect Miss Su and go to Tianjing together. When I'm ready, I'll pick them up myself. Speaking of this, Ye Tan turned his head to Su Sanniang and said, "By the way, Miss Su, if Tianjing can't buy it, I heard that Zeng Yanfan of the Qing Dynasty is also ready to buy weapons from foreigners." ”

When he was in Xia Wei Fish, Ye Tan knew what Su Sanniang wanted to say. Therefore, when Ye Tan arrived in Phoenix City, Ye Tan was ready.

Deal with Su Sanniang's affairs. Ye Tan led one of his troops, boarded the Giant Whale, Zihong, and Blulight, followed by 30 thousand-ton wooden ships loaded with supplies, and left Mu'en Port in the eyes of 10,000 people.

Longyue's Zihong, as a pioneer, waited for the fleet to just leave Phoenix Bay, which was 200 kilometers away, and couldn't wait to call Ye Tan to ask for battle!

Zeng Xiaoying, who was following Ye Tan, looked at the screen, Ye Tan's gaze stayed in the small place of Sitka for more than ten seconds, and instantly estimated that the first target was there. Zeng Xiao's battalion estimated that there would be no more than 1,000 enemies there.

"Long Yue, let the Zihong attack, isn't this letting the cannon hit the mosquitoes? You really give us Instructor Ye a long face! ”

Zeng Xiaoying, who has been gearing up for a long time, has not moved for more than half a year, and has begun to think about how to eat this piece of meat. How could Long Yue pick up this cheap.

"Zeng Xiaoying, don't think I don't know what you're planning. This attack mission, I, Long Yue, have decided to do it! ”

Long Yue said confidently.

"Long Yue, I said, why is your consciousness so low? Zihong is our strongest hole card, do you understand? So, you're out of the way this time. ”

Zeng Xiaoying knew very well in his heart that the more he said this, the more Long Yue would have no chance.

At this time, Bai Xueyan, who had been instructed by Ye Tan, took a package of documents and handed it to Ye Tan.

Ye Tan received his hand and stuffed it directly to Zeng Xiaoying, "Zeng Xiaoying, don't be poor, since your hands are itchy, I'll give you a chance." This is the depot blueprint, as well as the task items. We are going to build a supply depot on Kruzov Island, and in Sitka, on the nearby island of Baranov, the Tsars, who do not live much, are the target of your operation. You know, we need a lot of workers to build roads, and they're just right. I'll give you a speedboat, a battalion of troops, 7 boats of supplies. Once you've completed the mission, you'll be able to catch up with the fleet. ”

"Instructor Ye, I heard that the white nose is taller than the Americans, why don't you take a look?"

Zeng Xiaoying said with a smile on his face while holding the document bag. In fact, I just wanted Ye Tan to see him with his own eyes, how he won the Sitka.

Of course, Ye Tan would not say that he had seen a lot of white noses in his later life, and there was nothing strange about it. I was secretly vigilant in my heart, and I made a big mistake. When you look at everything with the mentality of an afterlife, you unconsciously forget that you are in the middle of the 19th century.

"That's fine. I'll just give you two hours. ”

In later generations, Alaska was known as the top of the world. Of the 20 tallest mountains in the world, Alaska accounts for 17 of them.

Winter is getting closer and closer, and when the whole of Alaska is white, the temperature is below minus 30, which has a great impact on the march of the troops. The key is that there are resources that Ye Tan urgently needs for development!
