In the Penglai City Lord's Palace, Tian Erniu and Jiang Liang looked at the map of the east coast of Huangjinzhou and were studying it carefully.
"It is not difficult for us to understand the colonial strongholds of European countries on the east coast. These strongholds are not much different from small fishing villages."
"The key is that after knowing these strongholds, these Europeans will definitely not be willing to fail and will definitely take revenge. Then our trouble will come."
Jiang Liang looked at the map of the east coast of Golden Continent. All the colonial strongholds shown on it had been completely eradicated.
With the arrival of Guo Ye's fleet and cooperation with the Spanish, it can be said that clearing these strongholds was effortless.
The biggest difference between the Ming Dynasty and European countries is that it has strong national power and a huge population. Even though the Golden Continent is far away from the Ming Dynasty, even though it arrived here later than the Europeans.
However, with the arrival of Guo Ye's fleet, the strength and number of people possessed by the Ming Dynasty on the east coast suddenly exceeded the total number of European countries on the east coast.
It is very simple and easy to sweep away the strongholds of European countries on the east coast.
"Well, European countries have the habit of being pirates, and their merchant ships are both merchants and pirates. If we clean up their colonial strongholds, they will definitely retaliate."
"But our colonial stronghold on the east coast currently only has Penglai City. Our troubles are not too big. The real trouble is with the Spaniards."
"I estimate that they will be in big trouble next. It will not be easy to monopolize the trade rights with our Ming Dynasty. Those European merchants who are not willing to fail will definitely gather on the route and the drivers will loot Spanish ships."
Tian Erniu smiled and nodded, then thought for a moment and said, "I didn't expect that the land on the east coast of Huangjin Continent would be so vast, so flat and open."
"The north of Golden Bay is an endless plain. If this area is reclaimed, our Ming Dynasty's population will be easily enough to support even if it is ten times or dozens of times larger."
"This is the truly precious place of Golden Continent. It is a vast, flat, fertile land. This is the cradle that generations of children and grandchildren can rely on for survival."
"I decided to place the next colonial base here at the mouth of this big river. Relying on this big river, I will gradually develop the entire flat and open plain."
"Old Tian, you talk a lot~"
"Mountains of gold and silver are not as good as the fertile fields at home. The gold and silver will always be spent. When they are used up, the fertile fields can be passed down from generation to generation to feed the children and grandchildren."
Jiang Liang nodded and said after hearing this.
People in the Ming Dynasty have a very deep attachment to land. Why do many people like to buy fields after they have money? Because fields are things that can be passed down from generation to generation.
"Haha, what are you talking about?"
At this time, a hearty laughter came over, and soon Guo Ye walked in.
"Why are you back so soon?"
Seeing Guo Ye, their eyes lit up slightly and they asked.
"Isn't it just a raid on the European colonial strongholds? They are all small fishing villages, and there are not many techniques that can be used. This time, I brought back a lot of good goods for you."
Guo Ye said nonchalantly.
Things went more smoothly than expected. The ships he led easily swept through the European strongholds on the east coast. Everyone was captured and used as slaves. Everything in the colonial strongholds was evacuated and could not be moved away.
It burned cleanly.
Completely destroy these strongholds.
"good stuff?"
Tian Erniu and Jiang Liang were immediately interested. They smiled and asked, "What good stuff?"
"Haha, you will know if you come with me."
Guo Ye said slightly mysteriously.
The two of them looked at Guo Ye and followed Guo Ye towards the port outside the city.
The originally bustling port became somewhat calm at this time. Merchant ships from various European countries were expelled. Only Spanish merchant ships and the Ming Dynasty fleet were anchored.
The crews of the Ming Dynasty ships that have just anchored here are constantly unloading their cargo and moving away the things looted from the European strongholds.
At the same time, there were groups of tightly tied captives. Many of them had just left Penglai City not long ago, but now they suddenly became prisoners, slaves, tied up, and awaiting an unknown fate.
"We protest ~ we protest ~"
"You can't treat us like this~"
"We have already surrendered, why are you still treating us like this~"
Some people kept roaring angrily, but they were beaten with whips, and they quickly became more obedient.
Guo Ye looked at these people and smiled dismissively.
These Europeans are far weaker than expected. I originally thought that I would have to use up some of my skills to defeat them, but often as soon as my cannons are fired and my ship lands, and they put up a symbolic resistance, they will soon be defeated.
surrender.
Taking Jiang Liang and Tian Erniu, they quickly arrived at an open space, where the people being held captive were European women captured from various colonial strongholds.
"You two can pick whatever you want, or you can pick a few more. Europeans have a stronger body odor, but this European woman has fair skin and big areas, so the smell is still very good."
Guo Ye said to Jiang Liang and Tian Erniu with a smile that every man could understand.
Here in Huanghuangzhou, there are really more wolves than meat. More than 99% of the people here are men. Over time, everyone has become normal, so many people have found local aborigines here.
Like Tian Erniu, he always brought two sisters from the Qianhekou Angu tribe with him to exclude loneliness. The others were similar. When they attacked the Aztec Kingdom and the Inca Empire, they also captured many women.
Many mixed-race children were born here in Huangjinzhou, all born from the Ming Dynasty and local indigenous people.
People from the Aztec Kingdom and the Inca Empire were also very willing to marry Ming people.
Because when Tian Erniu conquered them, it was already publicized that the Ming Dynasty and them were one family. They were expelled by the gods because they offended the gods, and they came to the poor and backward Golden Continent.
The people of Ming Dynasty are descendants of the Sun God and their status is extremely noble.
Therefore, women from the Aztec Kingdom and the Inca Empire are very willing to marry Ming people. Marrying a Ming man will not only lead a good life, with good food and drink, but also the children born will be Ming people with noble status.
.
The reason why many crew members are not in a hurry to return to the Ming Dynasty is that they often feel reluctant to miss Shu.
Here in Golden Continent, one has a distinguished status, can make a lot of money, and one person can often marry several women of Shang descent. In just over a year, the 100,000 people who came to Golden Continent have now given birth to children.
Already more than 200,000.
Tian Erniu's strategy achieved great success.
Apart from anything else, even if no one migrates from the Ming Dynasty in the future, as long as generations continue to reproduce like this, this huge continent will soon be occupied by the descendants of the Ming people.
"What did I think it was~ It turned out to be some European women~"
When Tian Er Newton was a child, he was a bit dumbfounded, and now he has some kidney deficiency. The Aztec Kingdom and the Inca Empire often presented beautiful women to him, and he was too busy.
"Lao Tian, actually European women are really pretty~"
Jiang Liang's eyes lit up slightly. He had been to Europe and had already tasted it when he was in Europe. Compared with the women of the Ming Dynasty, Europeans were more enthusiastic and unrestrained.
"Lao Guo, I'm not polite. Pick two and take them home to warm your bed."
After saying that, Jiang Liang also started to choose carefully.
"Damn~ I thought you were here to be monks, but I didn't expect you to be living a life of gods."
Guo Ye looked at Tian Erniu, curled his lips and said.
He had just arrived in Golden Continent not long ago and was not very familiar with this place. He originally thought that they should be similar to him, but who knew that this Tian Erniu actually looked like a saint.
"Ahem~ Lao Guo, you just came here, maybe you are not very familiar with the situation here~"
"Here in Golden Continent, what we lack most is this woman. We are noble Ming people, and those from the Aztec Kingdom and the Inca Empire are vying to marry us."
"Don't you see that the city is full of children? Those are actually ours."
Tian Erniu blushed, thought for a while and said.
"Ah~"
Guo Ye was immediately slightly dumbfounded.
"Ahem, Lao Jiang already has five houses here, and already has three children, with one more in his belly."
Tian Erniu pointed at Jiang Liang, who was carefully selecting, and said softly.
"After he returns to Daming, if his wife finds out, will she have to cut him?"
Guo Ye was dumbfounded, thought for a while and whispered.
Jiang Liang was a man with rake ears, and the tigress in his family was very powerful. Many crew members took concubines one after another when they got rich, but Jiang Liang did not dare to mention it because he was afraid of the tigress in his family.
Unexpectedly, here in Huangjinzhou, we actually built five houses and gave birth to several children. Now we have to choose two more European women. It’s really how severe the oppression is, and how powerful the backlash will be.
"What can we do if we know?"
"Everyone is here in Huangjinzhou, and Jiang Liang lives a comfortable life here. He is so happy that he doesn't even want to go back to Ming Dynasty."
Tian Erniu smiled and said.
"How can I say that you are all spreading your wings here?"
Guo Ye thought for a while and said.
"Almost, they are all big men, everyone is about the same. As far as I know, there are more than 200,000 new children born in each stronghold alone."
Tian Erniu nodded and replied.
"More than two hundred thousand?"
Guo Ye was dumbfounded again.
"My dear, if I let you stay here for another ten or twenty years, there will be millions of you out of the 100,000 people."
