Looking at Singapore, which has been taken by others, Changsun Tang is extremely happy in his heart.

Looking at the eldest grandson who was about to dance, Zhang Liang and Zhang Xingping both felt that the world was crazy. What's even worse is that he is even more crazy together, and the most terrible thing is that this madman is still his own head.

Fortunately, after the initial excitement, the eldest grandson quickly calmed down.

"Master Hou, what should I do now?" This time, the three fleets went into battle together, but because the cooperation with Zhang Xingping last time was quite pleasant, the eldest grandson stayed on Zhang Xingping's "Emperor Yan".

This was a relief for the other two fleets.

This is the same as the royal driving and personal expedition, with such a person as Changsun Tang there, the first task of the fleet is definitely not to fight, but to ensure the safety of Changsun Tang.

"Of course you took this place for me." The eldest grandson doesn't have to think about it.

"But these are Persians." Zhang Xingping had led the Yandi to escort spice ships here many times to trade with the Persians.

"What happened to the Persians? Can't you beat them? The eldest grandson looked at Zhang Xingping with some contempt and said.

"There's no problem with fighting, it's a little unrighteous." Zhang Xingping replied.

"So tell me what's going on?" Zhang Liang asked.

Zhang Xingping looked at the eldest grandson, and did not say directly, this Zhang Liang was thrown in the face.

"Grandpa asked you, why didn't you answer?" This eldest grandson naturally wants to give Zhang Liang a step.

"Oh, grandpa, master, that's it. This is where we trade with the Persians. We ship ceramics, silk and spices here. The Persians brought carpets, wine, and some high-end knives here, and when they saw purebred bloody horses. Zhang Xingping replied.

"You're saying you made a deal with these Persians in private?" The words of the eldest grandson are a little blameful.

"That's not true, it's an agreement between the two parties." Zhang Xingping replied quickly, and quickly settled the responsibility.

"Since there is no agreement, what is wrong with it?" Changsun Tang's words are a bit shameless, after all, now is an era of spitting and pitting, and even pirates can do it.

A contract is not necessarily written on paper, and even if it is written on paper, if there is no spirit of the contract, then it is just a piece of waste paper; And if there is a spirit of contract, even a sentence is a contract. It's just that the spirit is always the spirit, and many times it can't be worth the benefits.

"It's important here, so important that even if I don't want this face, we have to keep him in our hands." Changsun said that as a traverser, Changsun Tang knew the status of Singapore.

If the Strait of Malacca is the gateway to East Asia, then Singapore is the lock on the door. The gate is now uncontrollable, but the lock must be firmly controlled no matter what.

In view of the fact that there are not enough manpower to fully control the Strait of Malacca, this will be the third place that Changsun will need to develop after Jinshan and Spice Island.

The name here has already been given, and it is called Xingzhou.

The word "continent" is not a large division of the earth's land in later generations, but refers to the places where there is water on the four continents to distinguish it from the state. This star continent is naturally a place where the sea is surrounded on all sides.

However, before the arrival of the eldest grandson, this was already considered a land of lords. But the problem is that these people are meeting the eldest grandson, and in the current era when the territory has not been determined, whoever has the biggest fist is whose era. It is basically impossible to demarcate the border through the so-called treaty.

In a word, if you win, this is yours, and if you can't win, it's mine.

So with the arrival of Changsun Tang, this place is destined to become Changsun Tang's territory.

This area is less than the size of a county in Guanzhong, but it is a key point in the future. With the advantage of foresight, this place is destined to become his place.

The current de facto owner of this place, the Persians' claim to the land is actually not very urgent, if Changsun Tang is going to sit down and talk, maybe this island can be changed to Changsun Tang's name without a single soldier. But the eldest grandson, who is well versed in the rules of society at this time, does not plan to do anything.

The one that you bought with money is not your own, and only those who fight it with real guns and live ammunition are considered your own.

The Persians don't care about the land, but the interests and honor of the land have to care.

So a big war is doomed to be inevitable.

The first thing to be fought in the battle for the islands must be a naval battle, and only when the navy of one side is completely annihilated or does not dare to leave the station, will this drama of rushing to land on the beach appear.

The outcome of the war was already sealed before it even began.

The navy of the Tang Dynasty was a large sail warship led by Changsun Tang, which had basically abandoned the oars, and three of the Yellow Emperor even reached the level of early sail battleships. On the other hand, the fleet of the Persians was basically sail ships.

If the technical level of the warships can be compensated for by the Persians with their hundreds of years of experience in crisscrossing the seas, then the war between Persia and the Arabs at this time is that the Persians have no backup.

Therefore, it is more appropriate for the Persians to say that the tone of the fleet is that it is more like a fleet than a pirate without a country.

The reason why the Persians appeared here was because the rise of Arabia led by Muhammad had seriously affected the strength of the Persian navy.

In the past, the entire northern part of the Indian Ocean was the territory of the Persian navy, which was not in any suspense, but now the Persian navy is at its weakest.

The Persian fleet appeared, and the sailors rowed hard towards the fleet of Changsun Tang. The Persians were able to use a single means of warfare: broadside warfare. This is also the main mode of warfare at this time and for a long time to come.

But this method of warfare no longer plays a role when it comes to Changsun Tang.

The war was almost one-sided, leaving no suspense behind. It's the same as the battle between the eldest grandson and the pirates. So neat that he didn't give his opponent any chance.

This time, for the Persians who fell into the water, Changsun Tang did not kill them all, and even gave them ships to let them go back. The purpose is very simple, to go back and promote the strength of the Tang Navy and the fact that Xingzhou has spices.

After the defeat of the navy, the remaining Persians on the island surrendered to all of them.

What Changsun needed was a trading and transit center, not a cemetery. So this time there was no one who died, except for the Persians, who died in the naval battle. It's not that the eldest grandson is benevolent, but that the Persians have long been accustomed to such things. If the Persians really felt martyred, the eldest grandson really didn't care.

But at this time the Persians were still Persians, not Persian Arabs. Muhammad, who had just captured the holy city of Mecca a few years earlier, was clearly not in a position to occupy all of Persia after destroying the Persian navy. That's good news!

It's easy to take the island, but it will take a lot of effort to completely make Xingzhou the territory of the Tang Dynasty.

The main reason for this is that the population in Changsun Tang's hands is really small, less than 20,000 people, of which there are 3,000 people in the army alone, plus more than 3,000 people engaged in ocean transportation and trade.

And to manage such an important place with less than a hundred people, as long as anyone with brains knows that it is simply impossible. But the current situation is that this star continent has to be occupied again.

The head of the eldest grandson is really big now. How he wished there was such an existence as the "superborn guerrillas". Now Changsun Tang's population policy is that no matter who you are, as long as you come over, you will be given a suite first, and a reward of ten copper coins will be given to you if you have a child. But even this takes time, but what Changsun Tang lacks most is time.

At present, the ability to control Jinshan and the Spice Islands is already the limit, and this is due to the large-scale use of prisoners sent from Canton on the Spice Island.

So if you want to control Sin Continent, you have to think of other ways.

But after thinking about it, the only thing that can come up with this last one is to sit in Xingzhou by yourself. In this way, their own guards can temporarily take on the duties of the police to maintain law and order here, and at the same time must keep at least one fleet down as a defensive force. In this way, Sin Chew can barely survive.

As a traverser, the eldest grandson felt more and more that he had failed, and the Ming Dynasty "the Son of Heaven guarded the country", but as a Hou Ye was completely unnecessary, how good it would be for him to stay with his children and wife in this golden mountain. The eldest grandson thought secretly, but he could only think about it.

At this time, the eldest grandson was inspecting the market of this star continent. But this depressed scene made Changsun Tang feel that it was right or wrong for him to come and occupy this place.

It's been more than a week since the Stars Continent changed hands.

On the day of the naval battle, the eldest grandson received the news of his eldest daughter's birth, but it was a pity that he was not able to accompany Wang Zixin, and at the same time did not witness the voice of his eldest daughter. So in the past few days, Changsun Tang has been very depressed.

The eldest grandson, who had just recovered today, decided to come out to inspect the situation here. But looking at the scene in front of him, Changsun Tang couldn't be happy.

"What's going on?" The eldest grandson casually walked into a spice shop and asked the boss.

"I've seen Master Hou." The owner of this spice shop is a businessman from Jinshan.

Although Changsun Tang monopolized the collection and transportation of spices, he dispersed all the distribution of spices, and these spice dealers in Jinshan were all over the country from Xingzhou to Chang'an, not one thousand but eight hundred, and naturally made a lot of money. So now seeing the eldest grandson is as cordial as meeting his own father.

"You know me? Is it the manpower from Jinshan? The eldest grandson reflected after a little thought.

"Exactly." The boss smiled, and the eldest grandson answered in a timely manner. Turning his head, he instructed the guy: "You don't have long eyes, do you, you don't know how to make a cup of tea when this Hou Ye comes." ”

In the muttering voice, a black man came out with a tea tray, and said as he walked: "Master Hou, do you use it slowly?" This mouth is an authentic Chang'an official dialect, but it shocked the eldest grandson.

"Master Hou, the little Quanda, this is the Kunlun slave, which was sold to the small one by those Persians." This is all at a glance at Changsun Tang's expression to know Changsun Tang's thoughts, after all, observing words and emotions is the most basic ability of every businessman.

"I know this Kunlun slave, but this Kunlun slave can speak Chang'an official dialect, and it is so authentic, it seems that your training has also put a lot of effort." The eldest grandson said with a smile. During the Tang Dynasty, the few blacks who could reach the Tang Dynasty from Africa through various means were called Kunlunnu, and the eldest grandson had seen them in Quanzhou and Guangzhou, and even a few in the mines of Jinshan.

"Hou Ye smiled, he actually likes it so much, then this time Hou Ye, you will bring him, and bringing him with him can be regarded as his creation." Quanda said.

"There's no need for this, I'm just curious about how you trained him so that he could hear this Chang'an official dialect." Changsun Tang asked, if this can really be promoted on a large scale, Changsun Tang even wants to start sending people to Africa to plunder the population now. After all, my eldest grandson would be more or less merciful if he plundered, and if he was white in a few hundred years, it would be a disaster.

"Hey, it's not worth mentioning, it's not worth mentioning." Quanda's tone is very tight, and he doesn't want to reveal anything.

In fact, the Quanda method has no technical content, just one word: hit! What to do if you reflect on disobedience? It's good to have a beating. Of course, this is also the news that the eldest grandson learned later.

Seeing that Quanda was reluctant to speak, the eldest grandson was not ready to force it. After all, in the past few years, what Changsun Tang wants to establish is not only a new colony, but also a new social system.

Looking at this somewhat silent scene, Quan Da didn't panic much, there have been many such things in the past, which is also where he dared to refuse Changsun Tang's confidence. But looking at the embarrassing atmosphere, Quanda was ready to break the dullness, so he said: "Master Hou, this is the tea that I just brought back from Jinshan, you can taste it." The climate here is too hot, and a pot of herbal tea on this hot day is not to mention how beautiful it is. ”

"Okay, I won't talk to you anymore, I won't care about you about your Kunlun slave, you tell me why the market is so depressed, is it related to the Persians?" The eldest grandson asked.

"That's what this market looks like, huh? There is no depression. Quanda's answer was beyond the expectations of the eldest grandson.

"But for most of the day, as the most important business in this Star Continent, you don't even have a person in this spice shop, is this still good? And a lot of these stores are closed, is this still called normal? "Eldest Sun Tang, this will be considered angry, if you don't tell me your secret, I can bear this, but you can't fool me like this.

"That's really it. Hou Ye. Quanda felt that he was really wronged, but as a shrewd businessman, Quanda quickly reacted: "Master Hou, it's noon, and the big guys are taking a nap at home, if you look at the market, you can come when the sun is about to set." ”

As a result, the eldest grandson was really angry...... (To be continued.) )
