The Chinese brought by Li Quan were allowed to live on the island temporarily.

As for how long to stay, it is inconvenient for the two sides to communicate, and the specific question is not clear.

But one thing is for sure, the Great Chieftain will not let them settle permanently.

Historically, Captain Cook stumbled upon the Hawaiian Islands. And on the day he came, it happened that the natives were sacrificing to the god Longnuo, and the sacrificial team needed to sail around the island to celebrate, and Captain Cook was also going around the island to investigate the situation. The two sides acted so coincidentally that the natives took Captain Cook for "Dragonno".

The islanders saluted Captain Cook and presented him with a helmet and cloak, which was the attire of the upper class.

Captain Cook stayed on the island for a month before setting out to explore the Northern Passage. He deliberately did not go smoothly, and soon encountered a storm, and the ship was damaged and decided to return to Hawaii to repair.

The Great Chief is furious, although you are a god, I am the leader here. You went down to earth, and I served you, why did you come back? Want to grab a seat with me? If you don't want to go back to the God Realm, then I'll send you back!

So the two sides fought, Captain Cook was killed, and the soul finally returned to the divine realm.

The islanders were so happy that they held a funeral for Captain Cook, all according to the specifications for the burial of the gods. The internal organs of the corpses were hollowed out and then roasted in a fire, and the bones were left to be preserved for future religious offerings and rituals.

pretending to be a ghost will end up miserable.

Li Quan stayed on the island for several days and called his leaders for a meeting. Missionary Ye was the first to say: "The indigenous people here grow potatoes and sweet potatoes. We know that sweet potatoes and potatoes were taken away from the Americas by Europeans and spread. These natives should have never seen Europeans, and where did they come from sweet potatoes and potatoes? Could it be that their ancestors came from the Americas and could have crossed the ocean hundreds of thousands of years ago? ”

"The indigenous people here also feed pigs and dogs, and are there pigs and dogs in the Americas?" Star puller Guo Ziwei asked.

"I don't know." The crowd shook their heads.

There are not only pigs, dogs, potatoes and sweet potatoes on the island, but also the original variety of cotton, "wool cotton". The natives are already cultivating wool cotton, but the cotton production is still very low, only the nobles on the island can afford to wear cotton cloth, and the sails of the aborigines are also made of cotton cloth.

Li Quan chewed the banana he exchanged and said with emotion: "The island here is lonely overseas, and there are secrets hidden everywhere, and it is impossible to figure it out for a while. ”

Guo Ziwei said: "The latitude and longitude have been measured, and this island is located at 37 degrees east longitude and 19 degrees north latitude. According to longitude, we have sailed nine thousand five hundred miles from the port of Manzanillo. From here back to Luzon or Taiwan, you have to sail 17,000 miles. ”

"In other words, the island is located a third of the way through the voyage," Li Quan said, "and it is very important to establish a base for supplying and accommodating the sick and wounded on the way." ”

Feng Qianli, the captain of the deputy ship, said: "In the past few days, I have explored five large and small islands in the northwest, and I can directly conquer one of them by force. Then, 50 soldiers were left on the island and taken as concubines by indigenous women, so that they would not be unable to bear the loneliness. ”

Ye said: "I'm afraid no one wants to settle on the island, they also have families in the country. ”

"The maximum is only two years," Feng Qianli said, "leaving 50 soldiers this year, 25 when I come next year, and another 25 soldiers to live here." ”

Ip asked: What will happen to the indigenous wives on the island when they are gone? ”

Feng Qianli said: "The wife stays on the island and waits for her husband to come back in a few years. ”

Li Quan smiled and said, "If you rotate like this, won't every soldier have to marry a wife on the island?" ”

"Those who can endure two years of loneliness can not marry," Feng Qianli said, "We only have 300 soldiers on the ship, and even if we marry all of them, we only need 300 indigenous women." There are so many natives here that 300 women must be looking for anything. ”

Li Quan asked for everyone's opinions: "Do you want to keep slaves?" ”

"Surely raise it, is it possible to conquer the island and release all the slaves?" Guo Ziwei said.

No one objected.

Ye said: "It's better to call it a tenant, the imperial court is not allowed to raise slaves." ”

It's just a different name, but it's all the same.

The Han landlords in Luzon and Coconut City raised many tenants of different races, and to put it bluntly, there was no difference between them and slaves, and the government was not allowed to kill slaves at will

"Boom~~~~"

A loud bang accompanied by a slight earthquake interrupted the meeting in an instant. They turned their heads to see smoke billowing out of the distance.

Volcanic eruptions!

This is the largest island in the Hawaiian archipelago, Hawaii Island, also known as Volcanic Island.

The volcano erupts at intervals, and the magma spewed out continues to increase the area of the island. All the other islands in the vicinity are only half the size of this island.

After a long time of tossing, the volcano finally erupted, but the billowing smoke kept rising.

Li Quan heard the sound of drums, and he took people over to check, but it was the natives who were worshipping in the temple. The natives regard the volcano as a god, and every time a volcano erupts, it is the god who roars, and the gods must be appeased through sacrifices.

The temple was built of volcanic rock and is surrounded by various stone carvings. I saw the great chief kneeling in front of the altar reverently, several mages chanting incantations, chanting drums and singing, and a group of dancers dancing hula.

Immediately afterward, the Great Chief roared, and the native soldiers brought in a few slaves.

Slaves were pushed onto the altar and killed, even mutilated, and their blood was collected for what it was used for.

Li Quan and the others looked at each other, and then couldn't help but shake their heads.

It's so barbaric and bloody!

They didn't know that not only did slaves be used to sacrifice volcanoes, but human sacrifices were also required to build large houses.

For houses with relatively high specifications, the four corners are dug to lay the foundation for fixing the columns. Four foundation pits had to be sacrificed by killing four people, so that the house could not fall.

Of course, when it comes to human sacrifice, the first choice is not the slaves, but the commoners who have broken the rules!

There is a kind of Karp system here.

The highest ruling level is the Great Chieftain and the Religious Leader.

On the second level, mages, priests, singers, dancers, doctors, carpenters, shipwrights, genealogists.

On the third floor, farmers, fishermen, and ordinary artisans.

The fourth layer, slaves.

Civilians who violated the Karp system would be raised and sacrificed. If there are no civilians who break the rules, then choose human sacrifices from among the slaves.

There are many rules under the Kapu system, such as fishing in a certain area, farming in a certain place, and swimming and playing on a beach. People from different walks of life can only eat certain foods and wear certain clothes.

The status of women is particularly low, and coconuts and bananas are abundant on the island, but women are not allowed to eat both.

The wife can't even share the same bed with her husband, and after the husband and wife have a bang, the husband sleeps on the big bed, and the wife can only sleep on the floor bed. This is polygamy, and only the most favored wives can sleep on the floor bed, and the other wives sleep in other rooms. The family eats, the men eat around the table, and the women can only eat on the ground.

When a man goes out, a woman is not allowed to ask where to go. Men are not at home, women

No one is allowed to entertain guests.

Women are not allowed to touch the net, otherwise the net will not catch fish. Nor are the women allowed to go into the field, or the field will be in decline.

Anyway, there are many rules, and if you don't pay attention to it, you will break it, and there is only one kind of punishment - capital crime!

The island is rich in products, but the land area is limited, and it is estimated that the original intention of the establishment of this set of rules is not only to maintain the rule of the chief, but also to consciously eliminate the excess population. Because it is difficult for them to expand, they cannot transfer the contradictions to the outside world, so they can only rule brutally internally.

The people who were about to be executed, or those slaves, whose souls were already polluted and could only be purified when they died—this was mind control that made the condemned prisoner and the slave less resistant.

I lived on the island for another month, trying to familiarize myself with the language of the islanders and try to understand the social system here.

They observed the garments of the good and judged their status by their wear. Gradually, a series of high-ranking people such as chiefs, mages, and priests were determined, and military operations could begin.

The natives of Hawaii have already had "friendly" exchanges, and there is no need to use force on this island.

Li Quan has his eye on Maui next door, which is also the second largest island here

The area of Hawaii Island, which is close to one-third of the size of the island of Taiwan, has a large population, and it is not easy to rule after fighting. Maui is much smaller, only one-fifth the size of Hawaii Island, and 50 soldiers are enough to establish a strong stronghold.

Five large ships headed for Maui, and Ali Kamiya thought they were leaving, and a grand farewell ceremony was held.

It soon became clear that the Chinese fleet was all bound for Maui, much to the concern of Ali Kamiya.

The islands were enemies of each other, and it was difficult to land and occupy each other because the sailing ships were too small and the number of troops was limited. As a result, the Hawaiian Islands could not be unified for a long time, and the later Kingdom of Hawaii was established by purchasing ships and weapons from Europeans.

Ali Kamiya worries about the fear that the Chinese will make friends with their mortal enemies

The chief gathered all the sailing ships, more than a dozen of them, and took three or four hundred soldiers with them, and followed the Chinese fleet from a distance to inquire about the situation.

And Maui's chief, Pap, was also alarmed, because Chinese ships had gone around the island to investigate.

Papu felt that his "navy" would definitely not be able to defeat outsiders. Therefore, after the appearance of the Chinese fleet, he mobilized as many troops as possible, and also recruited nearby civilians to form an army to meet them on a beach.

"The enemy is in the east!"

"There were about a thousand people, all men, and women didn't seem to be allowed to fight."

The Chinese fleet probed around the island, found the location where the enemy had gathered, and ran specifically for the enemy troops.

One dinghy after another was lowered, and more than 200 soldiers rowed close to the beach.

"Boom, boom!"

Five large ships suddenly opened fire, and shells flew towards the native army.

Ali Kamiya watched from afar, and then shouted in horror: "Go back!"

He often sent troops to Maui to plunder, taking advantage of the enemy's inattention, to loot food and slaves. In the same way, the natives of Maui will also go to his territory to plunder. But neither of them thought about it, and completely annexed the other.

At this moment, Ali Kamiya saw with his own eyes that his mortal enemy was scattered by a burst of shelling.

What a terrifying outsider, it seems that he is really a god!
