Chapter 422: The Mapuru Kingdom Feels Really Fragrant

Nailed it. kill

After a long period of ideological work, the indigenous warrior Apache finally agreed to cooperate, willing to cooperate with Hua Yicheng, become a translator and lobbyist in the envoy group, and then go to the royal city of the Mapuru Kingdom, find a way to meet King Atupa VII, and then start negotiations to see if an agreement on peace and cooperation can be reached, to avoid war between the two sides, it is best to form an alliance, with the goal of eliminating the Western colonizers, and then to carry out competition or cooperation after all these evil forces are eliminated, then wait for later, Anyway, first unanimously to the outside world.

Not easy.

It can be said that successfully recruiting the indigenous Apache is indeed a bit not easy, and it takes a lot of lips and tongues and efforts.

Fortunately, in the end, the persuasion was successful, otherwise it would not be possible to break this breakthrough, and see the hope of easing the relationship and reaching cooperation, which overcomes the language barrier, achieves normal communication, and allows Apache to agree to cooperate, which is equivalent to taking a very important first step, as long as this step is passed, the rest is very well arranged, after all, everything is difficult at the beginning.

Of course, in addition, what Fang Yizhi and the others also felt was actually lucky, very lucky.

Fortunately, these indigenous Indians have the same black hair, yellow skin and black eyes as the Chinese.

Although it may not be the same species in fact, although there may still be huge differences in nature, many things have to look at the surface, and it is precisely because the hair, skin color, and eyes are the same, with so many things in common, so that there is a common language, in order to have a better first impression, will not be without thinking, labeled as an enemy, and then a fierce conflict will break out, but can talk, exchange, not necessarily cut each other when they meet. kill

Of course, if it is those Western colonizers, in their eyes, black hair and eyes, yellow skin, clearly look like the devil, whether they are smart or not, good or not, it must be eliminated, there is no need to have any guilt, anyway, as long as there is a greater surprise, even if it is only a superficial surprise, when it is time to do it, it must be without hesitation, and there will be no hesitation and thinking at all, which is why the indigenous Indians, for those Western colonists, all hate and fear the reason.

Far from it.

In short, after successfully convincing Apache to agree to play for Hua Yicheng.

A few days later.

Hua Yicheng sent a group of envoys, a total of 100 people, on 20 four-wheeled carriages, with a lot of gifts, to the royal city of the Mapuru Kingdom about 300 miles away, through many indigenous villages and cities, proudly glimpsed the general appearance of this indigenous kingdom.

And this Mapuru indigenous kingdom, with a population of about three million and a territorial area of about 200,000 square kilometers, is a medium-sized indigenous kingdom, although the level of productivity is relatively primitive and backward, but the population density is actually not low, and the houses in villages and towns are also scattered, very planned, and there is already a rudimentary form of civilization, but it has not yet evolved to an advanced stage.

But in the field of agriculture, it can still be called developed, it took thousands of years to cultivate corn, potatoes and other crops, in fact, the yield is not bad at all, can feed a lot of people, has a fairly high organizational and mobilization ability, can pull out 100,000 young people at any time, organize a large-scale war, and last for more than half a month, so in the face of such an indigenous kingdom, even the Spanish colonists who have been ahead of the technology for thousands of years, are not sure of victory, can only be eaten up little by little. kill

Just know that more than a hundred years ago, the predecessor of the Mapuru Kingdom, the Indians, established an extremely large and powerful Inca Empire, with an area of more than 2 million square kilometers and a population of more than 50 million, extremely prosperous and powerful, even the Spanish colonists were not sure that the conquest of such a huge indigenous empire was followed by the use of the contagiousness and lethality of the smallpox virus, which caused the Inca Empire to plummet in population, fall into division and chaos, and fall apart in a short period of time. Reduced to ruins and rubble.

Compared to the Inca Empire at its peak, the Mapuru Kingdom was just a younger brother, and it was nothing at all.

Soon.

The envoy group of Huayi City arrived at the royal city of the Mapuru Kingdom, and successfully carried out the report, and obtained the high weight of the upper echelons of the Mapulu Kingdom

Look.

That's right, when this envoy group just entered the border of the kingdom, the upper echelons of the indigenous kingdom paid attention to it, entered a state of high tension, and even considered whether to blow the horn of mobilization and prepare for war.

Although in the past half a year or so, the newly established strange city has entered a state of peace with the Mapulu Kingdom of mutual non-aggression and mutual provocation, but for the strength of Huayi City, the upper echelons of the Mapulu Kingdom still have an extremely deep understanding.

You must know that this strange force that came by ship has only been developing in this land for more than a year. kill

But a huge city was built.

More than 100,000 acres of land have been reclaimed.

So many roads were built, so many houses were built, so many ports and outlying fortresses were built...... The amount of work done in just one year may be more than they have done in ten years.

The efficiency of this kind of construction made them feel even more fear and despair, and produced a sense of urgency that the destruction of the Mapuru Kingdom would be more inevitable if it dragged on for one more day.

Because this new force from the sea in the west, it only took a year to have a potential threat far beyond the Spanish colonists, you must know that the colonies built by the Spanish by the sea, not to mention the small scale, and it took more than 100 years to slowly encroach to today's scale, and finally it is difficult to penetrate a hundred miles inland and gain a firm foothold, so as to achieve a dynamic balance: the Spanish colonizers can not eat the indigenous kingdom, and the Mapuru kingdom cannot expel the balance of the Spanish colonists, And this balance may be maintained, fifty years, a hundred years, maybe longer, in short, there is no pressure on the Mapuru kingdom to fall soon.

But the newly established Huayi City gave them this kind of pressure, giving them maybe three years, maybe five years, anyway, not more than ten years, they will definitely be finished, and the more they go behind, the less advantageous, and the sooner they adopt the same end war, in order to avoid becoming a loser in history.

It's just that such a decision can only be made by heroic figures, and the indigenous king Atupa VII is just a master of the past, who just wants to live a good life for a few years, and does not want to go out and do a big job, not to mention that he is not sure at all. kill

Now it looks like the other side has sent an envoy over, and there are quite a few four-wheeled vehicles.

After asking the courtiers and nobles how to deal with it.

King Atuma VII did not take the advice of those hardliners, and did not intend to send troops, kill the messengers, and then swallow the vehicles and supplies, but ordered a friendly greeting, a grand welcome, and no one could stop and make things difficult - although these envoys may resort to intrigue and trickery, see him as the king, and then directly kidnap and take him away, and finally tear up the ticket and kill him, the Spanish colonizers did not have no memory of the Inca emperor's approach, the Indians were not without memory, on the contrary, they were more vigilant than anyone else, and did not want to make similar mistakes, For any messenger or the like, it is safest to kill it directly, otherwise the hidden danger is huge.

But even if he may face the risk of being kidnapped, King Atupa VII still does not dare to take extreme countermeasures, because after all, it is a guest, even if it is likely to be a devilish villain, but if it is a good guest, but it is treated by force, then the result is probably the same, no matter how Atupa VII chooses, he may face a bad result, and the former is even worse, in this case, he can only take the risk as a king, face those outsiders, even if the meeting is a fight and kidnapping.

Soon.

Inside the original style of the royal city.

As an envoy, He Baiyun, with his assistant and interpreter Apache, and hundreds of other members, entered the royal city, and in a semi-open-air palace, he met many high-ranking members of the Mapulu Kingdom, including Atopa VII. kill

"We were sent by the Ming Empire to explore the Americas...... The envoy sent by Huayicheng, He Baiyun, the purpose of our visit is to meet His Royal Highness the King, and to send some gifts, to improve bilateral relations, to form an alliance of brothers, and to create a beautiful and prosperous era for the next 10,000 years......."

He Baiyun introduced himself and talked about the main purpose of his visit.

The Apache next to him helped flip it

Translation, so that Athupa VII and others could understand.

"Give a gift and become a friend? This ......."

Atumpa VII was silent for a moment, a little unclear about the real purpose of these people's coming, and smelled a strong smell of routines and conspiracy.

You must know that with the strength of Huayi City, it is no problem to directly send an elite team to break through this royal city, and then plunder all the valuables, and kill him as the king, there is no problem, in exchange for those barbaric and cruel Spanish colonists, in order to make a fortune, they are absolutely willing to do this, but as soon as these people came over, they didn't say anything, and they actually took the initiative to give gifts and express their willingness to make friends, which is really surprising, and I feel a little unreal, after all, according to the logic of the behavior of the Spaniards, The people of Huayi City, who already had an advantage in weapons, directly sent an elite army of more than 1,000 to engage in a decapitation tactic, maybe they would directly let the Mapulu Kingdom die, so why bother to do any tricks to show goodwill.

This made Atumpa VII really a little puzzled. kill

But just when he was struggling with doubts.

"Bring the present!"

He Baiyun said simply, asked his subordinates to act as porters, brought the gifts up, and then introduced them one by one.

"This is the seed of wheat, the grain seed that we only have over there, sowing it in fertile land, the yield per mu is less than 500 catties, and more than 1,000 catties, which can solve the food ration problem of two or three people, and it is nutritious, has a good taste, and can be processed into flour, noodles, bread, ......etc."

"This is a high-yield corn seed, and it is very drought tolerant and barren, on the dry land of the hillside with less moisture, without too much care, it can also obtain a yield of more than 500 catties per mu a year, which is not worse than your corn seeds, and the taste is also very good......

"This is a high-yield potato seed, and in a good planting environment, it can even achieve an exaggerated yield of 10,000 catties per mu......

"This is refined snow salt, which has almost no impurities in it, giving it a very pure salty ......."

"There are also fifty catties of white sugar brought from our Daming locality, of course, the land here can also grow sugarcane, we just brought a lot of sugarcane seeds, and we have planted them, and it won't be long before we can also produce white sugar, and it will also become a center that can produce white sugar......

"This is an iron farming tool, we have brought a hundred iron hoes, three hundred iron sickles, five hundred stainless steel knives, two hundred axes and a number of other iron products, as long as we can reach cooperation and form an alliance, in the future, your country can also exchange grain, ore, labor and other resources at a reasonable price for the iron farming tools and common iron tools you need, and there is no exchange limit, the price will be very affordable......

"This is a cloth made of cotton, which can be made into lightweight, comfortable and strong clothes, without any burrs, and the comfort after wearing it will be much better than leaves and linen clothes, in addition, we have also brought cotton seeds over and planted thousands of acres of cotton fields, if your country also wants to develop the cotton planting industry, we can provide cotton seeds for free, provide technical guidance, and promise to purchase all the cotton after harvesting, bringing a lot of income to your country and realizing the ......country's prosperity."

"There were also gifts such as watches, bicycles, and glass mirrors, and I brought one or two ...... each."

It took more than an hour.

He Baiyun will bring thirty or forty kinds of gifts, one by one, one by one, the Apache next to him is difficult to help translate, but there are still a lot of places where the translation is not in place, but the general meaning is still clearly expressed, especially the benefits of the alliance between the two sides, it is emphasized several times, and also expounded the development concept of Huayicheng, that is, they are willing to bring friends to achieve a win-win situation, not to mention, they Indians, who are descendants of Yin Shang, should be called Yin Shangcai, and it is also after Yan Huang, the two sides thousands of years ago, It is a family, which should not be hostile at all, but must form a brotherly state, and share blessings and difficulties in the future......

Anyway, a lot has been said. kill

King Atupa VII listened very carefully, and his heart was shocked again and again, and his face showed disbelief many times.

Especially what Yin Shang descendants, not Indians, more than 2,000 years ago, the two sides were originally a family, but because of the competition failed

, had to pass through the Bering Strait, migrated to this continent, although it has been so long, but each other's ancestors are absolutely the same (in fact, all human beings, have the same ancestors), and the two sides are long-lost brothers.

Isn't it convincing to look at each other's hair color, skin color, and eyes if you don't believe it?

Rumble!

Atupa VII's mind was shaken and bombarded many times.

Although he still felt incredulous inside.

But looking at those exquisite gifts, and hearing about the beautiful prospects of the two sides becoming friends, King Atupa VII finally nodded and secretly said a true fragrance. kill
