The fire agreement was signed very smoothly, and even before Zhou Mubai had made it, more than six European countries had booked twenty-three warships, and then Zhou Mubai immediately felt that his courtesy had risen to a higher level, and almost all the envoys had become his. Friend', all European statesmen except the Dutch have a hunch of the value of this envoy, and it is also true that the formation of a navy is not as simple as imagined, as long as there are enough silver coins, you can buy a large number of warships, and with enough warships, a powerful warship can appear in their own waters to exercise all the rights of a maritime power. /.

Of course, the training of sailors, gunners, helmsmen, sailors and naval officers is also indispensable, and the talents of the navies of various countries are extremely precious, and it takes at least ten years of accumulation to train a group of experienced talents, but it doesn't matter, because Zhou Mubai has made a commitment to send experienced Daming sailors to guide the naval operations of various countries in the form of consultants, and train officers for the navies of various countries free of charge. Military advisers were nothing to the Spaniards, the British, and the Portuguese, all of whom were traditional maritime powers, and there was no shortage of experienced officers, but for emerging maritime nations such as France and Belgium, they were extremely important.

Zhou Mubai stayed in Britain for a total of half a month, hundreds of merchant ships transported tea, silk, ceramics were also sold out during this time, was crazy to rob out, this alone made three million taels of silver, some Han merchants who came with the mission took advantage of this period of work to start wandering around the city of London to look for business opportunities, these people immediately became the target of London businessmen, in the eyes of Londoners, Daming is simply everywhere silk, ceramics, can be fortunate to see Ming merchants looking for business opportunities in London, how can they easily let go, half a month's effort, A deal was made in the cup-pushing cup.

After a series of visits, Zhou Mubai began to return with the three million taels of silver earned and a large number of orders for warships, and a huge European mission followed, although various countries had sent envoys to Haidu to contact with the Ming Dynasty, but they were not impressed by the Ming Dynasty, although they learned from the mouth of the envoy that the Ming Dynasty was powerful and powerful, but for most of the royal family, the empire was still too far away, but when the Ming mission arrived in Britain, it immediately caused an uproar, In particular, the proposal of the Ming to sell warships shook all countries, as ecstatic as the French, as happy as the British, but also with some trepidation, King William has always had an ominous premonition recently, the British and the Ming Dynasty have concluded an alliance, but it does not mean that the Ming will not conclude the same alliance with other competitors, especially the Ming promised to send military advisers to France and Belgium, it seems that the Ming Dynasty has no special treatment for the British, William's dream was to seize the sea power in Europe, but with the change of the situation and the passage of time, his greatest ideal was to continue to deepen the relationship with the Ming Dynasty, and it was best for the British to be the agent of the Ming Dynasty in Europe.

The most feared nature is the Netherlands, the first day that European countries are scrambling to buy the Ming warship The first day the news came to the Netherlands, the crumbling East India Company finally announced its downfall, the Netherlands really felt the looming crisis, the reason why the Netherlands was able to take advantage of it was because they spent a hundred years using the silver earned from overseas expansion to frantically build warships, in order to defend the throne of the first power in the sea, but now, it originally required a lot of raw materials, and it took a lot of silver coins, Weapons that required a lot of manpower and a lot of time suddenly became a commodity, a commodity that everyone could buy with just enough silver. This could only lead to one result, that any continental nation that did not need to accumulate could rise in the shortest possible time and become a maritime power that could rival the Dutch, and although the Dutch were still able to maintain their leading position in terms of seafaring experience, they were left with only that.

A new era is coming, and the Netherlands will be the first victim of the glorious foreign policy of the Ming Dynasty.

In the northeast of Ceylon Island, 10,000 Indians were lazily transported to the temporary port, Ceylon Island has now been cut into two sections, the west is under the jurisdiction of the British, and a large area in the east belongs to the colony of the Ming Dynasty, here, a temporary military camp has been established, hundreds of officers drawn from the Ming army have already prepared military boots and horse whips, military boots are used to kick the butt of Indian recruits, and horse whips are also used to whip the butt of Indian recruits.

Xu Dachang, the new commander of the colonial legion, has already wrenched his head at this moment

Wearing the uniform of the general army of the Ming Dynasty, the Indian recruits who swept the ocean with flashing blade-like eyes, Xu Dachang was the former chief soldier of the Zhejiang Green Battalion, and now the entire Jiangnan has been divided into three military regions, one is the Chengdu Military Region under the command of Wang Qiu, the former chief soldier of the central province, which governs the four provinces of Yunnan, Chengdu, Guizhou, and Guangxi, one is the Wuhan Military Region of Mu Jianming, which governs the four provinces of Hubei, Hunan, Jiangxi, and Guangdong, and the other is the Nanjing Military Region with Li Xiao as the governor, which governs the three provinces of Jiangsu, Zhejiang, and Fujian. Li Dingguo was transferred to Zhu Jun's newly established General Staff Department as chief of staff, and was responsible for strategic scheduling.

Due to the separation of the training of recruits from the generals. All recruits had to be transported to Haidu for training. It was then dispersed and divided into various military regions. After five years, veterans can choose to retire. So. The Ming army did not have the situation of generals not knowing soldiers and soldiers not knowing the generals. And there is no danger that the governor of the military region will rebel. Otherwise, I am afraid that the first people who do not agree will be the officers of the middle and lower ranks of the subordinate areas who have graduated from military academies and the soldiers who have received ideological education.

Xu Dachang, who surrendered to the Ming army, made great achievements in the battle of Jiangnan. was transferred to the island of Ceylon. He was appointed as the chief soldier of the Colonial Legion. The Governor of the East Indies was Zhang Youde. Dominate military and political power.

At this time, Xu Dachang was very energetic. He didn't come from a good place. It's a general. finally got a good position with his military exploits. And it's very authoritative. Naturally, he felt that the emperor trusted him. It should be made more of a show. Therefore. He specially went to the Haidudi recruit training camp to observe first. Hurriedly began to take office.

The Indian recruits in the conscription area looked at each other. Everyone stood crookedly in front of Xu Dachang. No one cares. In fact, as early as the reign of the Mughal dynasty. The Indian Native Legion had already been established. But soon. The Mongol princes were impressed by this group of Indian natives. Because this group of guys is not only eating and waiting to die. You simply don't have any way to make him a fighting force. Then there was the establishment of the native legions during the Dutch rule. A few years later. The Dutch had to abandon this challenging legion. Because these guys don't talk about war. Even the meals are slow. Pray every day on time. An officer of the native legion will be slapped by the soldiers in front of everyone and will not dare to fight back. It's just that this native officer is simply a low-caste untouchable. And the slapping soldier came from a broken high-caste family.

Now it's time for the big one. Xu Dachang was not ignorant before he came here. He has been instructed by the emperor. A set of effective training methods has been developed.

"Go. Let them go around here. On the school platform, Xu Dachang conveyed the order to the interpreter next to him.

The interpreter stood with a team of officers rushing into the crowd with whips like wolves, and while whipping and conveying the orders of the general soldiers.

The recruits finally started running under the urging of the whip, no, there was a professional term called race walking in later generations, and it is more correct to say that the recruits began to race walk.

Xu Dachang was really speechless, and when he met a group of lazy people, his anger immediately burned: "Tell them that they are not allowed to eat if they don't finish on time." ”

Four hours later, the running ground at the edge of the school was full of devastation, and there were new recruits lying everywhere, no matter how the officers wielded their whips, very few of them were willing to get up, and there were only about 200 people who were really qualified, and these were all Sikh soldiers.

The Sikhs are an outlier in the entire Indian subcontinent, and Sikh men generally have the word "Singh" in their names, meaning "lion", and during the period of Muslim rule, Muslim rule in Baotou did not allow other followers to Baotou in order to show that they were different from being conquered. But the fierce and martial Sikhs went their own way, and instead all wrapped their heads in protest. And constantly rebelled against all kinds of rulers, but because the number of people in the whole of India was not large, it was repeatedly suppressed, and it also cultivated a more martial tradition of the Sikhs.

There are only two hundred qualified out of 10,000 people, which makes Xu Dachang's nose crooked, he tried to restrain the anger in his heart, pouted with disdain, and nodded at the officer behind him: "All those who are qualified will be promoted to captains, triple the salary, and immediately make them a sumptuous meal to enjoy." ”

Xu Dachang paused, and glanced at the recruits on the running field with disgust: "There is no need to arrange for them, and the salary will be deducted for three days." ”
