It also happened that Wu Xing led the people to attack the port of Vallarta, if he changed the place and attacked the port of Manzanillo less than four hundred miles away from here, then Wu Xing would not be so lucky.

The port of Manzanillo is one of the important ports established by Spain in Mexico, although it is not the largest port, but it is also one of the most important strongholds, with a population of more than 150,000 people, an infantry regiment and an artillery company, and the Spanish gunboats.

However, now Wu Xing is extremely excited, anyway, the Spaniards have already run away, and then take the port of Vallarta first, at least he has a foothold on the American continent.

Wu Xing ordered people to urgently replenish the fleet with fresh water and food, and pulled all the goods from the merchant ships down, preparing to attack open trade in the city.

After all, more than 30 merchant ships came this time, although only a dozen or so arrived here, but there are still a lot of goods preserved, especially silk and porcelain, which are the most popular items among Westerners, and only the upper class can afford to use them in the West.

Fortunately, there were a few Spaniards and Dutch in Wu Xing's fleet, and there was no language barrier, and they soon became one with the merchants in the city. A large number of fine porcelain and silk are definitely sought-after goods in the West, especially now because of the war between the Ming Dynasty and the West, it is difficult to buy goods in the East in the West, and the price has directly doubled.

In just two days, the goods brought by Wu Xing were snapped up by these merchants, too sought-after, this is from the Daming Jiangnan Suzhou embroidery and Jingdezhen porcelain, famous all over the world, as long as you grab it, take it back to the West, it is definitely a huge profit!

Only at this time did Wu Xing know how sought-after the goods he brought, and how cheap these goods were sold at the beginning.

Wu Xing secretly regretted in his heart, the value of a fine porcelain was directly sold to a hundred eagles, this is a hundred eagles, such a piece of porcelain in China, that is, seven or eight silver dollars, when sold to Western merchants, that is, no more than thirty silver dollars, now it can be sold for a hundred eagles, after the Western merchants bring back to the West, at least one hundred and fifty eagles, or even two hundred eagles are possible, you know, there are many unknown risks in this maritime trade, In the event of a natural disaster such as a storm, it is possible to lose all the money, so these goods basically have to maintain a 100% gross profit in order to really make money.

"Grandma, after so many years of trade, she has been kept in the dark by Westerners, no wonder the red-haired devils have silver......"

Wu Xing scolded angrily, "Du Mingqiang, immediately start buying local specialties, as long as the things that are special in this place, buy them back for Lao Tzu, these things are to be brought back to the emperor, don't be stingy with silver, we don't lack such a little silver!" ”

Du Mingqiang on the side said in a low voice: "Master Hou, I always feel a little bad, this place is controlled by foreign devils, we beat the Spaniards, maybe, there are Spaniards in the vicinity, we have to be very careful, don't be dumplings by them, it's not worth it......"

Wu Xing was shocked, nodded, and shouted: "Well, I know, how can Ben Hou not have any preparations?" All the freshwater food is ready, once you get your stuff back, let's get ready to evacuate, this is not a place to stay for long, when it's time to go, we have to go! ”

Wu Xing is not stupid, he is not familiar with the place in the Americas, his eyes are black, who knows how far away the Spaniards' large army is, if there is really a large army of the Spaniards in the left vicinity, he will have three or three hundred people under his own command, which is not enough for people to stuff their teeth!

Du Mingqiang's guess was not wrong at all, the Spaniards suffered a big loss, so naturally they couldn't give up.

Zabaleta ran back to Manzanillo in one breath, this is Spain's military port in western Mexico, where a quarter of the Spanish troops in Mexico are concentrated, of course, most of them are mercenaries, Spain does not have so many domestic troops deployed everywhere, but even a quarter of the troops are enough to see, and it is not far from Mexico City, only five or six hundred miles away, there are more Spanish troops stationed there.

Zabaleta was originally the person in charge of the Manzanillo command to garrison Puerto Vallarta, but now that Vallarta is lost, he naturally has to urgently report to his boss and ask for assistance.

"What do you say? The Ming Empire sent a fleet to attack Vallarta? ”

Carlos, the commander of the Manzanillo military port who got the news, was so frightened by Zabaleta's words that he almost dropped his jaw, the Ming Empire, just defeated the Netherlands, Spain, and Portugal's three-country alliance in the South Seas, how powerful that strength is, only God knows, I didn't expect that the four Western countries have not yet retaliated against the Ming Empire, and the Ming Empire has actually extended its claws to the Americas!

"How many warships did they come, how many troops did they come? Say it! ”

Carlos reflected, grabbed Zabaleta's collar, and shouted, while speaking, Carlos's voice was trilling, he was really frightened, if the Ming fleet was dispatched, not to mention the small Vallarta, that is, whether the whole of Mexico could be kept or not, it was between the two, after all, the entire Mexico had only fifty or sixty thousand troops, of which the number of troops equipped with firearms was less than 20,000, how to confront the Ming Empire?

"General Carlos, don't worry, they, they don't send many troops!"

Zabaleta hurriedly shouted, "General, this time the Ming Empire came over with only more than ten big ships, of which there were only two warships, the scale was not large, only equipped with twenty or thirty artillery, and there were only three or four hundred troops with the team, but they were all equipped with muskets, and I was only more than a hundred people, and I couldn't stop the attack of the Ming army on the dock at all, and I was directly defeated, so I had to come to you for help!" ”

Call......

Carlos let out a long breath, thank God he didn't abandon us, otherwise the whole of Mexico would have been crushed into powder! The Ming Empire is too powerful!

"Since it's just a handful of people, it means that it should just be the power of the people to carry out ocean-going exploration, don't be afraid of them, it's a big deal to wipe them out in one fell swoop!"

Carlos shouted: "Come, immediately summon the Governor of Mexico City, Joaquín, report to him the news of Vallarta, ask him to decide, tell him that I will lead a force to Vallarta and wait for his order to attack!" ”
