Hearing Li Xiu's personal confirmation that it could help him meet the commander-in-chief Li Xiao. Joseph was so happy that he couldn't sleep all night. Early the next morning, he took the letter from Li Xiu and ran to the dock to board the ship.

A ship is leaving today to transport wounded soldiers. If it can't catch up, it will have to wait ten days.

Of course, if you are not in a hurry, you can also use a private commercial sailboat to go back. It will take half a year to go back and forth, and Joseph cannot afford to wait.

As soon as I ran to the dock, I saw a Liao Army officer in military uniform, accompanied by several entourages.

Several followers were very fierce and tied Joseph up in front of the officer as if they were kidnapping him.

"Several of you! I am a friend of your commander, and I am going to see your commander." Seeing these fierce-looking guys, Joseph felt like he had been robbed.

"I know you are going to see my eldest brother, but don't you think it will take a little longer to take this boat to the capital of Ming Dynasty? I heard that your brother is fighting some Egyptians, can you afford to drag him along?

?”

"Your eldest brother...! Are you...?" After the translator spoke the words, Joseph was a little confused. He didn't know that there was actually a handsome brother here.

"This is our Lord Tiger, the third younger brother of the Marshal. Show your skills a little brighter, or you will offend our Lord Tiger and make it difficult for you to move forward in the Ming Dynasty." The entourage next to him threatened Joseph with a fake look.

"It turns out to be Mr. Tiger, disrespect! Disrespect!" Joseph was beating in his heart. He didn't know whether this Mr. Tiger wanted money or his life. If the robbery...

"Hey! I asked you, do you want to take an airship back to the capital? It's that thing flying in the sky. Nowadays, they are all new airships. You can fly from here to the capital in six days. What do you think? Do you want to take a ride?" Li Hu

Smiling, he looked at Joseph in front of him.

Changxing Island Airship Factory has recently developed an airship. The engine of this airship has been reduced again, and two engines can be carried in the pod. However, this type of engine has a big problem with heat dissipation. It needs to fly for a period of time, and one engine must be stopped for a period of time to dissipate heat.

.

Fortunately, the airship's buoyancy is generated by a huge airbag, and the two engines rotate, allowing the airship to maintain a high speed of one hundred and sixty miles per hour.

In Li Xiao's opinion, one hundred and sixty miles per hour is only 80 kilometers per hour. This speed is far from what Li Xiao wants. But this is the Ming Dynasty, and the speed of 80 kilometers per hour is already jaw-dropping.

.

With this new type of airship, including the time for refueling and resting along the way, it can fly from Singapore to Beijing in six days. You can also get off the airship and take a rest along the way. It will not be like before, where you will be half exhausted after taking an airship.

Just wait a few days.

Joseph's eyes lit up!

When he was in Singapore, he had seen airships before. He was envious of things that could fly in the sky, but he was envious because he knew he was not qualified to ride one. However, he did not expect that a tiger suddenly appeared in front of him.

Lord, he said he could take him on an airship to meet the commander.

Excited! Very excited!

"Oh! How can I thank you Mr. Tiger?" Still a French habit, Joseph hugged Joseph excitedly.

Li Hu was not used to being held by men, so he pushed Joseph away: "No need to thank you, take me to the Middle East when the time comes. I will pull up a team of mine there. You will be familiar with people there.

Help me then."

"Uh...!" Joseph never imagined that Li Hu would be so ambitious.

"What? No?" Li Hu's eyes widened.

"Okay! No problem." The helpless Joseph could only nodded and agreed.

Until the time the airship was parked, Joseph still had doubts about whether he had been kidnapped. It was not until he got on the airship and heard the deafening roar of the engine that Joseph felt relieved.

Presumably ordinary robbers cannot board the Ming Dynasty's airship.

There are limited seats on the airship. Counting Li Hu and a dozen of his companions, only Joseph is the only one. Only Li Hu has such a way to get the latest airship to shuttle between Singapore and Beijing.

I flew from morning to night and landed in an unknown place. It was pitch black all around and I could only tell from the sound of the waves that this was the beach.

We stayed in a bamboo house for one night. Fortunately, there was a mosquito net, otherwise Joseph felt that he would be eaten by mosquitoes. Even so, Joseph still had more than a dozen large bags nailed to his body.

It wasn't until one of Li Hu's companions took a large bottle of toilet water and poured it all over Joseph's body like he was taking a bath, that he saved his life.

Joseph found that this thing called Liushen toilet water was very magical. As long as it was sprinkled on his body, mosquitoes would not bite him. Moreover, this toilet water had a special smell, and it smelled very refreshing.

Secretly leave an empty bottle and prepare to take more with you on your return trip. There are more damn mosquitoes in that damn place in Egypt than here.

The flight continued early the next morning, and Joseph discovered that the airship only flew about ten hours a day. The airship would land and rest as soon as it got dark, which is why the journey only took six days. If it flew day and night, it would probably take only two days to fly to the capital of Ming Dynasty.

.

Everywhere you go, there will be a landing site. The airship will be refueled there, and larger landing sites will have dedicated personnel responsible for maintenance. The further north you fly, the colder the weather will be. This makes the airship grow up in Corsica on the Mediterranean Sea.

Joseph was very uncomfortable with the cold.

However, Li Hu thoughtfully asked someone to prepare a military cotton-padded jacket, military cotton-padded trousers, and a military coat outside.

From the hanging window of the airship, you can see the white snow, rolling mountains, and farmland as neat as a chessboard. Lunch is usually served on the airship, and the food is a dish packed in an iron box.

.

There was a rich variety of dishes in the iron box, including a variety of delicious meats, vegetables, and even a jar of fruit after the meal. I don’t know how much sugar was put in the fruit. It was very sweet, but Joseph liked it.

This suits his taste perfectly!

You can see the coastline at any time. The airship is flying along the coastline. This is the only thing Joseph knows. Flying is boring. Every once in a while, Joseph can see a city. The city is very prosperous, and every house is only covered by thumbs.

Size. People are as small as ants, or even smaller than ants. You can't see them unless you look carefully.

Joseph was surprised by the size and density of Ming cities. Sometimes he could even see two cities at the same time from the airship. Each city seemed larger than Paris.

Especially the further north you go, the more chimneys there are. Black smoke is coming out of those chimneys. I asked Li Hu and he said they are all factories. The goods sold from the Ming Dynasty to the Arabs and Europeans in the Middle East are all produced there.

.

At the same time, those deadly weapons are continuously produced here to supply the army.

Joseph wanted to ask why there was no windmill here. After thinking about it, he thought it might be because people in Ming Dynasty like to eat rice and not bread. These days, he eats mostly rice and has never eaten bread. Only once, he ate something similar to biscuits.

Something. But it has stuffing inside and is very sweet. He likes it very much.

The noise on the airship was so loud that he basically had to yell to speak. After the excitement of the first day, Joseph's voice quickly became hoarse. Now his throat hurts whenever he spoke, so Joseph shut up.

Li Hu, on the other hand, asked Joseph about the Middle East and Europe from time to time. Joseph had to endure his sore throat to answer various questions from the curious baby.

At dusk on the sixth day, Joseph finally saw a huge city on the horizon. This city exceeded all the cities Joseph had seen before. Joseph, who was on the airship, could only see part of the city and couldn't even see its sides.

The whole picture.

Could it be said that this is the capital of Ming Dynasty?

Joseph felt that he had come to the right place, and his younger brother Napoleon's judgment was also right. The Ming Dynasty was a huge country, a country as powerful as a lion. If such a country pounced on the world, it would kill all its opponents.

The English would never be a match for the Ming Dynasty. Compared with the capital of the Ming Dynasty, London, the pride of the English, was as small as a pigeon cage.

The sky gradually darkened, and the airship began to slowly descend. While descending, Joseph was surprised to find that countless lights lit up on the ground, illuminating the entire city.

Joseph didn't know what it was, but he was certain that it was definitely not a candle.

I wanted to ask Li Hu, but my throat was really sore. I could only hold back my curiosity and wait until I got off the airship before asking, at least that way I wouldn't have to yell.
Chapter completed!
