Chapter 547: Looking for the Leading Party

Meng Qi and Yang Ah walked around, and saw that the Indians below had finished reciting the sutra and began to eat meat, and the two of them also returned to their own dining place, which was a cart used as a dining table, on which some salted meat and pickled vegetables were placed. Wen Tianxiang and Monk Jiudeng were frowning and eating meat with sad faces. The great monk of Yongxin chews deliciously, this great monk is not picky, he has something to eat.

Meng Qi sat down on a small pony, grabbed a piece of meat, and said as he ate: "It would be good to wait until the Maya (they call it Maya in Mexico), the Maya will farm the land and build the house." With them, our Jinshan will be fine. At that time, we will not return to Jinshan City, but build a new city in the south near the Mayan Tungva Bay (where the future San Diego is located) as our big base in Northern Mingzhou. The navy has already inspected there, and the harbor there is no worse than the Jinshan Peninsula, and it is the most suitable for the construction of a naval military port. The climate is also warm and the land is fertile, making it a good place to farm. When the time comes, we will take tens of thousands of slaves from Maya and let them help us farm the land, build the city, and build the house...... There are also Jinshan Eight Banners to help us fight, and the situation in Mingzhou will be opened. You can let the ship go back and recruit more people to Mingzhou! ”

This plan was different from Chen Dexing's earlier plan, Chen Dexing wanted Zhou Xiaoqi and Mengqi to establish a stronghold on the Jinshan Peninsula, exchange a shipload of gold and silver with the Indians, and then return to East Asia. I didn't expect them to be able to toss out tens of thousands of Indian Eight Banner soldiers, and to conquer Maya, and they also planned to use Mayan slaves to build cities and reclaim farmland - but Zhou Xiaoqi and Meng Qi did have such permission!

And the benefits of doing so are clear. According to this method, the colonists from East Asia could have food, drink, and a house to live in as soon as they set foot on the Mingzhou continent, and they did not have to fight the barbarian world physically and mentally exhausted. The probability of surviving is not known how many times increased - historically, among the European colonizers who arrived in the Americas earlier. A significant number of them starved to death!

However, Wen Tianxiang, Monk Jiudeng and Monk Yongxin couldn't help frowning when they listened to Meng Qi's words. What are the plans? Capture tens of thousands of Mayan slaves. Then let them plant the land, build the city, and build the house...... It doesn't sound like the work of a righteous teacher! With such a method, can the natives of Mingzhou be convinced? Can the Mingzhou Continent be peaceful?

Meng Qi said to himself: "At most, in another year and a half, our investigation can continue to begin." Wen Zhuangyuan, two masters, where do you want to go then? ”

Because of the Indian Eight Banners as thugs, the safety of the Jinshan Colony has been guaranteed, and naturally there is no need to keep the ship in case of emergency. Therefore, the four expedition ships would split into two groups, one group would continue to explore the coastline of the Ming Chau continent to the south, and the other team would return to the east with looted gold and silver treasures.

"The poor monk wants to go to Tianzhu to preach the Dharma!" The great monk of Yongxin ate with a mouth full of oil. But he has not forgotten the Dharma.

The poor monk also wanted to go to Tianzhu to have a look, "The monk of Jiudeng is also eating meat, the staple food of these Jinshan colonies, if you don't eat it, you will starve to death." "If Buddhism is still related to Tianzhu, the poor monks should try their best to promote it, and if there is no fate, the poor monks will not force it."

This is the high monk, don't force it, everything is in the fate.

Wen Tianxiang sighed lightly. said: "I wanted to return to the west earlier, but now I am writing a travelogue, and I just want to record the customs and people of all the countries in the world one by one...... Remember what you see. Do not write hearsay. So I'd better go to Tianzhu, and it would be better if I could go to Flynn after visiting Tianzhu. ”

Meng Qi smiled and said, "This is easy to do." On the way to Tianzhu, you have to pass through the hometown of Da Shi Country, and the northeast of Da Shi is Flynn. When the time comes, send a team of Jinshan Eight Banners to escort the champion to Flynn for a visit. ”

Wen Tianxiang smiled and nodded. He didn't know because of this decision to cover. In another way, he will go down in history – he will be the first man ever to complete a globetrotting book, and one of his travelogues will become one of the world's best-selling books, inspiring generations of Orientals to explore the world beyond the continent where they grew up......

……

The sea is undulating and the sea breeze is light. Perhaps the storm season has passed, and the calm in the huge small Luzon Bay seems to be a pool of West Lake in Lin'an City.

On the beach on the south shore of Little Luzon Bay, a tall man in a white Taoist uniform was strolling along the beach with his hands behind his back, followed by three women who were also dressed in Taoist clothes, and a middle-aged man in a red battle jacket. On one side of the beach is the town that has just been burned, and that is Little Luzon! When Pu Shougeng and Ma Shoushan evacuated there, they set fire to the homes of thousands of Han immigrants. The Han Chinese who lived there were either killed or hid in the nearby forest. Now one after another, people returned, all gathered near the coast, staring blankly at the huge fleet anchored at sea.

Because the docks in Little Luzon were also burned, the landing of the fleet became difficult, and the only way to land on the beach was to barge soldiers and supplies in small boats. In one day and one night, less than 2,000 people landed and set up camp on the beach.

Chen Dexing, Mo Yingniang, Juexin, Yang Po'er, and Zhao and Yu also went ashore, and they didn't have anything to do, just take a walk on the shore and take a breath.

The tall man in Taoist clothes was Chen Dexing, and the four people around him were Mo Yingniang, Juexin, Yang Po'er and Zhao Youyu.

He walked slowly on the beach, bowing his head and thinking thoughtfully, the sea splashed his robe, and he didn't realize it. Occasionally, he would pick up a piece of seashell and throw it into the distance, staring blankly at the splash of the shell.

Zhao and Yu came to his side and said in a low voice: "King Ming, the two thieves of Pu Shougeng and Ma Shoushan have already gone to the Three Buddhas. We might as well chase them as soon as possible and kill them by surprise! ”

Chen Dexing smiled: "What's the hurry? If Pu Shougeng and Ma Shoushan are bent on leaving, Tianzhu will arrive at this time. However, the lonely king saw that these two thieves were still reluctant to give up on the prosperity of the East, otherwise they would not have stayed in Luzon for so long. ”

His guess was only half right, Pu Shougeng and Ma Shoushan were indeed not in a hurry to go to the West, but it was not because they were nostalgic for the prosperity of the East, but because they didn't have much money in their hands. They originally planned to plunder Quanzhou and get a vote to leave. However, he made a wedding dress for the Heavenly Taoist Sect, and escaped in embarrassment all the way, and he didn't even have time to take away all his original savings. When they arrived at Luzon and counted their money, the two thieves found that their possessions, including their ships, were only a few million. Although there are quite a few, considering that they have more than 10,000 family members and subordinates, the cost of food, clothing, housing and transportation is definitely not a small amount. Therefore, they did not dare to rush west, but set their sights on the trade route from Malacca to Tianzhu.

However, Zhao Youyu didn't know what Pu Shougeng and Ma Shoushan thought, but said hatefully: "No matter where the two thieves go, a certain family will chase them!" ”

Chen Dexing looked at the surrounding mountains and seas, and said lightly: "You Yu, you see that the mountains and seas here are magnificent, the land is fertile, the products are rich, and there are good ports to pass through the four directions, but it is a good family business." Of course, this revenge must be avenged, but we must not forget to start a business...... If you don't have the energy to take care of this, you must also choose a good minister to preside over the foundation of Luzon. ”

"This one knows in his heart," Zhao and Yu said, "and so on plans to make Chen Gangzhong the prime minister of Luzon." ”

Chen Gangzhong is Chen Zilong, who was born as a student, behind him is the Chen family of the Xinghua clan, and he is a celebrity in Shilin, Fujian, who can rely on the clan, the township party, and classmates to create a military and political group. In contrast, the Southern Sect of the Zhao clan withered because of the Quanzhou Rebellion. Now that Zhao and Yu are bent on revenge and entrust all major affairs to Chen Zilong, it is inevitable that there will be a dispute between Chen and Zhao in the future......

However, this matter has nothing to do with Chen Dexing, he just smiled deeply and nodded lightly: "It's good that you have an arrangement, and let the army rest for some time, and by the way, build a city in Little Luzon, and send troops when the envoy of the Lone King comes back from the Three Buddhas!" ”

"The King's Messenger?" Zhao and Yu were stunned, he didn't know when Chen Dexing had sent a messenger.

As soon as Chen Dexing turned around, he beckoned to Juexin, who had changed to a Taoist aunt, "Juexin." ”

"The disciple is here."

"Do you still know how to be a nun?"

"Being a nun?" Juexin was stunned for a moment and nodded, "Naturally, I know." ”

Of course, she will not forget this, her father is a monk, her mother is a nun, her brothers and sisters are either monks or nuns, and the whole family is a family of monks and nuns.

"Then take your people, change into monks' robes, and take the handwritten book of the lonely king to occupy the monument."

"What is the mission of the master?" Juexin asked. She is a high-ranking female monk in Japan and is no stranger to "diplomacy". In Japan, monks have always been the protagonists of the "diplomatic" scene.

"There are two public missions," Chen Dexing turned around, looked at the huge fleet at sea, and said lightly, "First, ask the Three Buddhas to exterminate the Pu Shou Geng and Ma Shou Shan clans and send their heads to Luzon Island; Second, tell the people of the Three Buddhas that although the Lone King established the Heavenly Dao, he did not destroy the Buddha, and if the King of the Three Buddhas Qi intended to re-establish Buddhism in Tianzhu, the Lone King could send troops to help and participate in the grand event. ”

Chen Dexing founded the Tiandao Sect mainly to fight against several monotheistic religions with strong combat effectiveness and cohesion, not to destroy Buddhism that was fighting the five scum of war. Moreover, the power of Buddhism in Nanfan is huge, and it is not said that it can be destroyed. For Buddhists, we have to be wooed when it's time to be wooed, and we have to be appeased when it's time to be appeased.

Moreover, the Buddhists of the Three Buddhas still hold the key to the gate of Tianzhu -- the upper echelons of the Three Buddhas are actually Indians who believe in Buddhism.

"The mission is ......not public," Juexin said tentatively.

Chen Dexing smiled: "Find the people of the Polo family and bring them to Luzon!" (To be continued......)
