Zhang Hongwu's ocean voyage this time is not so simple.

Their fleet, with all the supplies, was more than seventy ships. After all, there are five hundred militia families on top of this. Originally, it was 1,000 households, but considering the cost of transportation, 500 people were transported first. Similarly, these 500 people only have cold weapons, at most Zhang Hongwu himself, a handcuff of the latest product, as well as 5,000 rounds of ammunition and three sets of replacement and maintenance parts, and 30 barrels for him to replace.

Zhang Hongwu and his entourage must first go around the Strait of Malacca, then reach the Philippines for supplies, and then arrive in Taiwan for the second supply.

Then head east to Guam, which was explored just last year, where it rests and resupplies with the already civilized natives. From Guam, we traveled east to Hawaii, which was explored earlier this year and initially established diplomatic relations with the powers above. Of course, at this moment Hawaii has not yet formed a kingdom, it can only be said that it is a collection of several tribal groups in a semi-slave and semi-feudal state.

According to Zhang Hongbin's intentions, one of them was nurtured to let him conquer the other tribes, and finally the republic would conquer them to minimize the cost of war.

Just three months before Zhang Hongwu's departure, the Republic had just completed negotiations with the natives of Hawaii's Oahu, trading some seafood and supplies, as well as some fine porcelain and ironware. The other party seems to have used obsidian as the main weapon before, and used iron for the first time, so it was also very quick to accept the survival of the Republic expedition. At the same time, in exchange for iron tools and other Republic commodities in exchange for promises to help the Republic grow sugar cane and coffee, as well as to process coconuts and seafood. Of course, as for whether it is an equivalent exchange, it is open to discussion.

At present, there is only one guarantee, and that is that there is at least one pro-republic force in this archipelago area. Here, as long as you trade something cheap, you can exchange it for enough supplies, or even go to the island to rest for a day or two.

It then traveled eastward to the west coast of North America, probably near what would become San Jose, California.

Yes, this is the initial landing site set by Zhang Hongbin. The reason why it did not land in San Francisco was only because San Francisco was occupied by the Spanish at this time. These colonists who are far away from home are afraid that they don't know that the European navy has been completely disabled, and they may be wondering why the latest batch of ships has not arrived in the country for so long? They need supplies, they need trades, and most importantly they need all the information out there. If the fleet does not come again, they will decline little by little, and they will probably die in this foreign land in the end.

Zhang Hongwu set out on the expedition, with national tasks and personal ambitions, and began his journey of exploration and nation-building.

It's his first time on a boat, even if it's genetically optimized, but seasickness won't disappear just because you're genetically optimized, who made him never take a boat before? It can be said that in the first ten days, Zhang Hongwu spent almost all of his time in the cabin, and he only ate a very small amount of things every day, and they all had to be light things.

Every day, Zhang Hongbin can talk to him face-to-face through the guò communication device, which is actually face-to-face, and accept his complaints. In the newsletter, he complained several times: "This is the worst experience of my life, I hope not to have a second time!" ”

Poor baby, he has just started his voyage, and there are at least two months left before he reaches his destination...... Remember, this is only the case at least.

The fleet passed through the Strait of Malacca and was supposed to continue towards the Philippines, but Zhang Hongwu's situation was a bit worse, so he temporarily docked in Malacca City. Zhang Hongwu was here, resting for three days, and by the way, it was regarded as a trip.

The city of Malacca had been bombarded and looted by the navy once, but it was not a year or two before it could be restored. Not to mention that with the recent departure of European colonizers, it has also become much more depressed. But it doesn't matter, the Chinese people who have just immigrated here are also actively helping to restore the former vitality of the place, and even become more prosperous under the governance of the Republic. Because for the people here, this is no longer a colony, but their real home.

At the same time, there are many Europeans who have stayed here, and they have come to take risks because they have no ambition in their homeland. Here, they can have a better life and a higher status than their homeland. The Republic does not exclude foreigners from having their own nationality, but they can only have one nationality, in other words, if they join the Republic, they must renounce the nationality of their country of origin. And this, many Europeans who stayed here, did it.

Here, perhaps because of the difference in climate, Zhang Hongwu is somewhat uncomfortable. However, modern medical technology is so advanced that it is not difficult to recuperate. Not to mention, in order to prevent such a situation, Zhang Hongbin gave a lot of supplements. I'm afraid I'm afraid to make up for a nosebleed, but I don't have to worry about the rest.

"Father is ashamed, he will get seasick if he makes a boat!" During Zhang Hongwu's cultivation, a pair of porcelain dolls in their fifties came to him.

This is his pair of twin sons, Zhang Hongwu was originally the one who didn't like to get married the most, but looking at his younger brother's children so bewitching, and looking at the life of the eldest brother and the third brother so happy, and thinking that he was back in the room lonely, even if there were one or two maidservants, he always felt that something was missing. So this elm head finally opened up, got married, and finally got married. According to modern parlance, it is an arranged marriage, but he himself does not mind, and now he has a very harmonious relationship with his wife, and he even has a pair of twins. It's a pity that it doesn't seem to be as wicked as their cousins and cousins......

The eldest child is called Zhang Ben, and the younger one is named Zhang Le. The former is the name given by Daddy, which means 'don't forget your heart'. The latter is the name he gave to his wife together, which means that he will grow up happily and live happily.

"Haha, it's right to call my father, my father hasn't passed the test of the country yet, and he is not qualified to be the king." Zhang Hongwu hugged them up and put incense on their cheeks.

"Father is so powerful, testing something is a piece of cake! Don't worry, my father will be crowned king, and we are still waiting to be the son! Zhang Le said without seriousness.

"Peace of mind, the prince is absolutely indispensable to you. Just look at Daddy and I, and lay a huge territory for you in the so-called New World! It doesn't seem that Zhang Hongwu has spoken about this topic for the first time.

"But before that, you have to take care of your body...... Our family, you can't stand this ship the most. A dignified and virtuous woman walked in, but it was Zhang Hongwu's wife He Shi, He Shi is from Baishui He Shi, and her generation is He Ling's cousin, and she is also a concubine.

After He Ling's introduction, the two knew each other and fell in love, and finally came together.

"I'm strong enough to kill a cow now!" Zhang Hongwu stood up, carefully put the child down, and then gestured towards He.

"Okay, I know you love to be strong." He gave him a blank look, he had been married for so many years, how could he not know what virtue his husband was.

"Hehe......" Zhang Hongwu didn't refute, after all, the two sides are also old husbands and wives.

The next day, Zhang Hongwu still took his family and boarded the flagship. In the farewell of the garrison, he continued north and came to the Philippines. Maybe it was a period of adaptation before, but this time he didn't have any seasickness along the way, and he slowly adapted to the sailing situation.

After arriving in the Philippines, we stopped here for two more days to repair before we set off. Arriving in Taiwan Province five days later, Zhang Hongwu was also sincerely pleased to see that the construction here was becoming more and more prosperous. After all, he also has part of the credit for the military achievements of the republic. After all, he was also one of the direct participants and formulators of military operations.

From Taiwan to Guam, only a group of natives have settled here, but they have been initially civilized, and some already speak a word or two of Chinese. In fact, it can be seen from their appearance that they are very likely to be exiled from the Chinese Miao descent, but they have been away from the Chinese civilization for too long, so they have degenerated.

Twelve days later, the fleet came to Hawaii Island, looking at the blue sea and blue sky, Zhang Hongwu suddenly remembered that his brother seemed to have said that this is the land of Lang. So I didn't say much, I took my family here to have a good warmth, but as a martial artist, he still didn't quite understand Lang Man's definition, and he only felt that this place was good-looking, but it didn't seem to be any different from other places.

He also scolded him for this: "I don't understand Lang Man's wood!" ”

Finally, after a lot of hardship, the group came to the Americas and came to San Jose, which was scheduled to arrive. Of course, there is no city here, and everything is in a state of wilderness. As soon as Zhang Hongwu landed, he planted the national flag of the Republic on this land and shouted: "I declare that this land, starting today, will be owned by the People's Republic of China!" ”
