Chapter 952: You Pedal Two Boats

Behind the Governor, a black shadow in a top hat pushed the monocle, which flashed with a cold light, and the deep shadow was like the darkest dark cloud, enveloping the entire port town......

The Spanish colony of South America is separated from the Spanish mainland on the European continent by the vast Atlantic Ocean. In fact, the crown rule over these colonies was still very weak. Therefore, these governors naturally have great power in these places at the ends of the earth. Unless they go too far, there will be a sanctioned fleet on behalf of the royal family.

However, due to the weak industrial base of these colonies, it was also very unrealistic for these governors to obtain a strong military liliang that could rival the Invincible Armada. Most of the Spaniards who came to such a remote area were farmers, running sugar cane plantations and tobacco fields, or engaged in animal husbandry, and some were small craftsmen. It will be difficult for these people to build an industrial base in a short period of time. Therefore, this fragile rule and subordination relationship can also maintain balance for a certain period of time.

Therefore, it is so convenient for these governors to do what they want to do locally. So the Governor of the Living Dead, who was controlled by the Book Demon, and the inhabitants of the place, began another life. The local natives, led by their chief priests, surrendered to the Book Demon. In fact, for these natives, Zhang Fan's team liberated them by doing so.

These Spaniards are invaders, colonizers, marauders!

Captain Baka had no idea that Zhang Fan's team wanted to take control of a small inconspicuous area in the middle of the New World. Because most Europeans do not yet know that the Panama region of Central America is an isthmus with a vast ocean on both sides of the isthmus, not a saltwater lake. How important this narrow Isthmus of Panama will be in terms of geography for future generations!

However, Zhang Fan also didn't understand that Akon and the book demon Weishenme must occupy the Isthmus of Panama, because the team's mission and future scenes have nothing to do with it. And the Panama Canal has not yet been built. But in the team meeting that followed, he quickly understood Akon's ambition and what little patriotism he had left.

"I'm going to criticize you!" Akon said to Zhang Fan and the book demon, "You have solved such a big trouble for the Ming Dynasty, and you didn't receive any benefits, so you rushed back!" That's a big loss! But I have to admit that you guys did a great job this time! Even if I go, I won't be able to do a better job than you! ”

"Let's get to the point, what good is it that we occupy the Isthmus of Panama?" Zhang Fan waved his hand and asked, "Do you want us to build the Panama Canal?" ”

"This proposal could also be considered, but it is not this that is the most important thing right now." Akon smiled slyly, "Do you think that with our ability and strength, it is possible to occupy the New World, or at least leave traces in the future history of the New World?" ”

Zhang Fan and the book demon glanced at each other, then nodded, "This is obvious. As long as we are in close contact with the British royal family. Once we have the help of the British royal family, and our knowledge of history, whatever we do will affect the history of the Caribbean and the entire New World! ”

Akon nodded, "It's just that I don't think it's enough. The support of the British royal family...... Hey, that's certainly good. However, you said that with our identity and influence in China, and the fact that you solved the southeast sea disaster for the Ming court this time, can these achievements affect the Ming court's perception of us, so as to change the context of the development of Shijie history, as well as the Liliang balance in the Caribbean? ”

"What do you mean......" Zhang Fan was surprised in his heart, he somewhat understood what Akon meant, but this was a big game of chess.

"You want to pedal two boats?!" Green Wing said suddenly, which made Zhang Fan's book demon Aken a little impressed.

Akon snapped his fingers, "Bingo!" That's right! If we rely on the British royal family alone, it will not be easy for us to confront the Spaniards in the near future. England is far from being as powerful as the empire on which the sun never sets. And the Chinese Empire, although it is now beginning to decline, but the emaciated camel is bigger than the horse, if we can get the support of the Ming Empire, our ideal of dominating the Caribbean and even the entire New World is probably not difficult to achieve! Moreover, it can also allow China to participate in the era of geographical discovery in history, and change the historical pattern from then on! ”

"But the current European technology is more advanced than that of the Ming Empire, even if the Ming Empire sends a fleet from thousands of miles away, I am afraid that it is not as good as the Spanish Armada, and it is not the opponent of the Spaniards!" Zhang Fan said worriedly.

Akon Haha smiled: "Hahaha, it's only the eve of the Great Industrial Revolution, and Europe hasn't invented the steam engine yet!" Now, even if there is a gap in technology, it is not very big. It is mainly reflected in the construction of long-distance ships. There are also muskets and artillery jishu, although the Ming Empire is a little close, it is not far behind! Besides, we still have the bookraisin......" Akon patted the bookraiser on the shoulder.

"If we teach the Ming Empire more advanced navigation skills and artillery muskets, which one is more powerful, do you say that with the production capacity of China or the production capacity of Spain, which one is more powerful?!"

Zhang Fan nodded, "Of course it's the Ming Empire, after all, the Ming Dynasty of China has a vast territory and a large population. If China can come to its senses, its productivity will not be comparable even if the whole of Europe is at full capacity! It's just ......" Zhang Fan frowned, the reason for the weakening of the Chinese mainland is because it does not attach importance to the development of science and technology, closes itself off from the country, and implements a sea ban. This is a historical crux that cannot be changed by a few mouths of your own team.

Akon understood Zhang Fan's concern, clapped his hands and said, "What is our mission to enter this shijie?" What is the reward for the scene? Isn't that encouraging us to change history? Maybe it's very hard for us to do it, but should we back down?! What's more, even if we can't let China rise, at least we can let the Ming Empire see that history is advancing, as long as the Ming Empire can send a fleet to set foot in the New World, we will be successful, and we will be able to let this fleet take root and sprout in the American continent from now on, then there will be no more centuries of humiliation of China by Western powers in the future! Maybe it's not easy, but we have to do it anyway! ”

Zhang Fan raised his head abruptly and clenched his fist, "Akon is right!" Even if we can't make China awaken, at least let him see the threat coming, and see that history is advancing! It was decided that we would devote our energies to the development of the Panama region, so that the fleet of the Ming Empire would have a place to settle in the future. It's also easier to get into the Caribbean! ”
