After repeated identification, Zhou Yushan finally found that the leader of the savages seemed to speak English.

Although the accent is very strong, very strange, and very rusty, he does speak English.

It seems likely that he had contact with the British, and even the so-called slaves were imprisoned by the British.

As a result, the village is hostile to outsiders, but they also try to communicate with outsiders.

The leaders who had seen the world knew that if the other side was really an invader similar to the British, it would be impossible for their own tribe to defeat them.

"You ...... You are not British, you are not Boers, you are not Bantu...... Who are you? Are you a friend? Is it the enemy? Or the one who will put us to an end once and for all? ”

The leader of the wildlings made his people lay down their weapons.

Although he did not recognize the sudden arrival of the visitor in front of him, he knew the musket in their hand.

Before Western colonizers arrived in South Africa, at least 200,000 San people lived here.

But now, this tribe of less than 30 people in front of me is the last San tribe on the west coast of South Africa.

Historically, the San people in the south and west coasts of the British Cape Town would be completely extinct, while the San people in northern Namibia and southern Angola would survive in some wild places, with a total number of only 20,000 or 30,000, which is completely incomparable with the explosive population growth rate of black Africans.

"Does this wild man ask who we are?"

Li Hongzhang said to the translator, "Tell him that this father is the one who patrols the heavens...... Forget it, he didn't understand it, and told him that Bengong was here to destroy Yingyi, and see how he reacted. ”

In essence, Li Hongzhang actually doesn't care about any bullshit savages.

He did a lot of slaughtering villages and destroying the Taiping army when he was encircling and suppressing the Taiping army, not to mention some savages.

But the words of the old general Zheng Baoguo do make sense.

Not to mention today's Zhu Tianzi, he has a hobby of collecting dogs.

It is the emperors of all dynasties since ancient times, who doesn't like the cards of all nations to come to court?

Even if it is the nephew emperors of the Southern Song Dynasty, don't they also like the chieftains of the small Nanyang states the most to offer their vassals?

Anyway, there are only about twenty savages, and they can't come up with any tricks.

Keep it and keep it.

When the time comes, it will be dedicated to the Son of Heaven, maybe it will be auspicious.

Savages are dispensable to Li Hongzhang, but for savages, what Li Hongzhang said is not intended to be a matter of life and death.

When he learned that they had come to destroy the British, the leader of the wild men burst into tears and cried out.

He tossed his poisoned bow and arrows aside, fell to his knees, and then turned to the people and shouted loudly in the native language.

Soon, all the savages laid down their weapons and knelt down towards Li Hongzhang, holding their hands together and raising them above their heads.

Although the customs do not make sense, out of the underlying thinking logic of the human species, Li Hongzhang can also see that these guys seem to be grateful to themselves.

This is also reasonable, Li Hongzhang is not surprised.

After all, Yingyi pigs and dogs are not as good as the people living under their rule, which does not hate them to the bone.

Of course, this is mainly for mud legs.

I and many squires, when I was in Shanghai, I cooperated with foreigners quite happily.

But in all fairness, at that time, he was a dog in the Qing Dynasty and a dog in the foreigners, how could he be comfortable being a dog in Daming now?

Once the sea was difficult to water, except for Wushan, it is not a cloud.

Now let him Li be a dog for foreign devils, it is absolutely impossible.

Not only that, who in the world most hopes that the Manchu Qing Dynasty will never recover, and who most hopes that the foreigners will be wiped out and the species will be wiped out, and all the hardcore traitors who hold the thighs of foreigners and will not let go will be cut off from their children and grandchildren?

The answer is naturally that Li Hongzhang is a quasi-traitor who almost went astray, but he was corrected in time.

The second devil is more hateful than the real devil, and in the same way, the quasi-traitor anyway wants foreigners to die more than ordinary people.

It's like a couple breaking up, except for a few saints or the ultimate licking dog, no one wants their ex to have a good life.

Perhaps, she can live well.

But it's better not to be as good as me.

If you learn that she is doing better than yourself, it will be uncomfortable, and it will be even more uncomfortable than when you break up.

Therefore, Li Hongzhang is absolutely unwilling to be a dog for foreigners anymore.

Unless you have to add money.

Add lots and lots of money.

After all, Li Hongzhang is not Zuo Zongtang, he always has flexible moral standards.

It's just that if you want to lower his moral standards, the price is not ordinarily high.

After all, when it comes to adding money, who can add more than His Majesty Liangzong?

Li Hongzhang has a small ledger, and he has been calculating how much silver his railway stock is worth now!

Not to mention, he was ordered to squeeze the squire, and he squeezed a lot of oil and water along the way.

Even if he has been adrift at sea for these months, Li Hongzhang is still counting the money while writing a diary.

Li Hongzhang dared to pat his chest and said that at this moment, his loyalty to Daming is unlimited!

·

After Zhou Yushan's repeated interrogations, Li Hongzhang finally understood the current situation.

"In other words, these savages are the aborigines of this land, whether it is Yingyi, Heyi, or even Kunlunnu, they are all latecomers?" Li Hongzhang sat in the tent, holding the "Notes on the Life of the Son of Dewu and Heaven" and slowly flipping through it.

"Hui Ming Gong, in fact."

Zhou Yushan replied, "According to the previous intelligence and the records of the Chronicles of the Kingdoms, it was almost the time when the Jiashen Heavenly Change and the Chinese land sank, and the Dutch began to invade this land.

Fifty years ago, Yingyi arrived again.

They coveted the land occupied by the Dutch, and under the slogan of emancipating the slaves, they colluded with the blacks to fight against the Dutch, and now the Dutch, the so-called Boers, have lost their access to the sea and are surrounded by the British.

It's just that the students learned today that the black Bantu people here are also invasive creatures, not aborigines at all, but introduced by Heyi through the slave trade! ”

"Good!"

Li Hongzhang put down "Notes on the Living of the Son of Heaven" and was overjoyed.

Originally, he was worried that the Southern Tang Dynasty would establish a country at the southern tip of Africa, and he would have to coexist with Kunlunnu.

It turns out that this place is not the homeland of Kunlun Nu, and they are also outsiders!

Outsiders, that's easy to do!

"I said Yushan."

Li Hongzhang muttered, "Do you think there is a possibility that these savages who are about to perish are actually the descendants of the seafarers of the Three Treasure Eunuchs' fleet?"

After all, South Africa has been colonized on a large scale more than 50 times in the past dynasties, and it is difficult to say the twists and turns, but historians have all noticed that Admiral Zheng He of our dynasty is very likely to be the first navigator to arrive at the Cape of Good Hope.

Wherever the treasure ship went, the natives wholeheartedly welcomed and recommended their own pillows, which can really be said to occupy the sky, and the realm of vitality and all things is still in front of you. Just five years later, has this changed to become the burial place of Zheng He's widow?

No matter what, we will restore Zheng He's hometown with 60,000 to 1,000, and the advantage is mine!

Yushan, what do you think about this? ”

Zhou Fu was stunned and hurriedly said: "I said, Ming Gong is high!" ”
