Above the turbulent ocean, a fleet was sailing. They encountered a storm. Although the process was thrilling, fortunately their ships were large enough to survive the storm.&1t;/p>

Zhang Ning is the commander of this fleet and has the rank of major. This time he was ordered to explore the west coast of America. In this exploration activity, a total of three warships and twenty transport ships were dispatched. In order to ensure the safety of this exploration, the ships dispatched were all 2,000 tons.&1t;/p>

When the storm dissipated, the fleet that had sailed above the ocean for more than a month suddenly appeared six places ahead. With the shouting of the lookout hand, the soldiers of the entire fleet were excited.&1t;/p>

The boats they rode on this time were all Europeans' soft sailing boats. There was no comfortable boat building on the boat, so they could only live in a cabin with dark light and turbid air. The living environment was very harsh. They urgently needed 6 places.&1t;/p>

Zhang Ning quickly picked up the telescope and looked at the distance. The distance was some islands, not a huge large area.&1t;/p>

Then Zhang Ning opened the chart and there was an archipelago marked "Honolulu".&1t;/p>

"This place should be here." Zhang Ning was very happy. There was indeed an archipelago here. This is the nautical chart from the superiors. This archipelago was their first goal.&1t;/p>

The superior told him that there might be a group of relatively backward indigenous people on the island. The fleet began to slowly approach the archipelago, and soon the fleet arrived not far from an island.&1t;/p>

"Come here, send two small boats to investigate immediately." Zhang Ning immediately ordered.&1t;/p>

"Yes, sir."&1t;/p>

Then two small boats were put down, and the exploration of the archipelago in front of them had begun. As the exploration unfolded, they found a natural harbor and the indigenous people on the island.&1t;/p>

When the fleet entered the port, Zhang Ning ordered the cannon to be fired.&1t;/p>

The sound of bombardment scared the indigenous people of the island.&1t;/p>

The archipelago in front of us is the Hawaiian Islands in later generations. Since the indigenous people on the island have never seen anyone coming from the outside world since they lived on this archipelago.&1t;/p>

At this moment, I suddenly saw a tall fleet of ships coming to the port. Everyone was wearing white naval uniforms and roaring like a thunder god. I suddenly thought that it was a god who had arrived. A group of natives were so scared that they knelt on the coast, constantly praying to the fleet. They also jumped up, as if they were performing some ritual.&1t;/p>

Zhang Ning and the others were confused, so this was reduced?&1t;/p>

A group of natives wearing grass skirts thought that the Ming army was a god at this time, and they saved a lot of trouble and bloody conflicts. Then the Ming army on the fleet boarded the island and was devoutly welcomed by the natives.&1t;/p>

Zhang Ning immediately announced to the indigenous people that the archipelago had been included in the territory of the Ming Dynasty, and from then on this place was a kingly paradise, and all the residents on the island could be called the people of the Ming Empire.&1t;/p>

However, because of the language barrier, it is like talking to the duck.&1t;/p>

Zhang Ning thought about it and simply invited the indigenous people to visit the ship, and held a banquet with the ingredients offered by the indigenous people. After the indigenous people and several indigenous "nobles" on the left and right, they were so confused.&1t;/p>

There are exquisite porcelain, gorgeous brocade, silk, tea, sugar, honey, and various exquisite gold, silver, and bronze.&1t;/p>

At the same time, the chef of the fleet made a hearty meal, which these natives had never enjoyed before. They also ate food, but they were all natural fruits. I never ate such food, and I almost swallowed my tongue. The food was not very good.&1t;/p>

After some entertainment, Zhang Ning began to show off his martial power and showed various weapons to these natives.&1t;/p>

In the surprised eyes of the natives, the sharp sword cut the tree with one knife. Then he dragged a captured seal up and shot it to death with a musket.&1t;/p>

The final highlight is naturally the shelling.&1t;/p>

The warship drove to a remote place. After setting up the target, heavy artillery on the warship fired together, and a shell went out. The huge power broke the target.&1t;/p>

A group of natives were scared to their faces and their expressions became more respectful.&1t;/p>

After some courtesy and deterrence, Zhang Ning directly asked someone to draft an agreement. The content of the agreement was that the Honolulu natives were willing to join their families to surrender to the Ming Dynasty. From now on, the Honolulu archipelago was included in the territory of the Ming Dynasty and the Honolulu natives were granted the Honolulu toast. The rewards were given gold, silver, bronze, brocade, silk, and porcelain to guard Honolulu.&1t;/p>

A bunch of rewards were placed in front of the indigenous leaders and a drafted surrender agreement. After some communication, the indigenous leaders could not resist the temptation of these rewards, and they were not sure what this agreement was. They pressed their fingerprints on the surrender agreement at the mercy, and then happily took the reward ship and went back to show off to their tribe members the reward he received from the "God".&1t;/p>

Just like that, the native Hawaiians sold the entire Hawaiian Islands, but the black and white surrender agreement has been signed. Next, if the natives do not recognize it, they will be bigger than whose fist! When the time comes, the Ming Dynasty will also represent the justice side.&1t;/p>

The natives didn't even have iron tools, and the productivity gap between the two sides was so great that they were so different. How could they defeat these fully armed Ming troops? They could just throw a hundred soldiers to the island and sweep them.&1t;/p>

Therefore, it is a foregone conclusion that the Hawaiian Islands have become the territory of the Ming Dynasty, and there will be no variables. When Westerners appeared in the Hawaiian Islands in history, it was 150 years later.&1t;/p>

Although the worst plan was made, the next step was smooth. These natives were very obedient and had no intention of disobedience.&1t;/p>

After continuous communication between the two sides, the language gradually became smoother.&1t;/p>

Zhang Ning left three hundred soldiers on the island. At this time, the indigenous people on the Honolulu Islands were not unified. The indigenous territory he recruited was equivalent to unifying the islands to manage the indigenous torso. With the combat effectiveness of these three hundred soldiers, it was enough to sweep the entire Honolulu Islands. There was no problem or suspense.&1t;/p>

Zhang Ning understands the significance of this archipelago to the Ming Dynasty. If it is really as marked on the chart, in this vast ocean, only a few islands are located in the middle, and this place will definitely become an important midway supply point. Moreover, this archipelago is very beautiful and has a very comfortable and pleasant climate. There are no mosquitoes, flies, cockroaches, fleas, and snakes and reptiles on the island. It is like a paradise. Such a good place must be occupied.&1t;/p>

Then Zhang Ning led the supply fleet and began to sail to the west coast of America. He wanted to find the "Kingsoft Port" marked on the chart, which is San Francisco in later generations. This chart was actually painted by Zhu Youxiao himself. What is Hawaii? I wrote it directly on Honolulu. This is the name given by Chinese people in later generations. What is San Francisco, it is directly named "Kingsoft Port".&1t;/p>

Zhang Ning didn't know who drew this chart, but when he was in Honolulu, he was surprised to see that there were really sandalwood trees on the mountain. When he entered Jinshan Port, Zhang Ning was thinking in his heart, is there really a Jinshan there?&1t;/p>
Chapter completed!
