Chapter 1191 The First Great Geographical Discovery - Raid Camp
(Because there was only one update yesterday, I gave 500 words to book friends)
"Geronimo, it's not that I suspect you are telling lies, but this matter is really important, and you are often confused, so I have to come and take a look in person. And I will send the entire tribe to
All the people have been brought here, which is enough to prove that I have no suspicion that you have told lies." Chief Qilika said.
After saying this, he turned his head and looked at the now very quiet and dimly lit place in front of him. At the same time, he said to himself: "There are ten people in each soft room, and there are at least a thousand people in the whole place."
Personally, there should be others on the boat..."
"The weapons they use are also very strange. They are made of a very strange thing and look very hard." Chief Qilika picked up another long arrow that Cao Guangxiao accidentally left in the forest.
Ya: "The weapons they use have wood in the middle, but the arrows also have something like this."
"These people look a little different from us, they are whiter, and there are no tattoos on their faces, arms, or calves. Their leader (referring to Zhu Bai), the man with the most gorgeous clothes should be their leader, and he looks like
They are pretty much the same as ordinary people.”
"Chief Qilika, it seems that they are not from the south. People in the south like to bleed people, and the leader looks very strange." Another middle-aged man said. He once traveled to the south when he was young.
I have come into contact with people who built huge stone platforms, and they are completely different from the people in front of me.
"They may come from the sea! They may be an island in the sea. Legend has it that there are many islands in the sea, and the people on the islands are good at building ships." Chief Qilika said.
"What should we do with them?" Geronimo asked.
"We should fight them!" Chief Qilika said, "This is our home. The beasts in the mountains, the fish and shrimps in the sea, and this land are all ours! And they are invaders!"
"But there are many of them, and," another young man pointed to the arrow in Chief Qilika's hand, "they also have such sharp weapons."
"It's night now, it's very dark, they can't see us clearly. And we are very familiar with the terrain. Even if we fail, we can escape under the cover of the forest and the night. If we fail, we will recruit more tribal warriors to join us.
Destroy them!"
"And I also got instructions from the gods. The gods don't want his peace to be broken by these foreign sea people!"
He said this, and no one had any objections. They picked up the spear with a sharpened stone tied to the tip and slowly rushed towards the Ming army's camp. Chief Qilika removed the iron head of the arrow and mounted it on the
on his own spear.

…
"Until now, I can't believe that there is such a vast land on the other side of the sea!" A young man wearing straight clothes and a moon-shaped head sat on his knees on the straw mat and picked up a small piece of land in front of him.
He took a sip from the wine glass on the table and sighed.
"And it's still a land of no one! God has really favored the Ming Dynasty!" Another young man dressed in the same clothes as him also said with emotion.
These two are the leaders of the samurai sent by the Sagami Kingdom to 'escort' their own women this time. One of them is named Miura Yuzhen, and the other is named Fujiwara Keikyu.
"It's true, but now that we have seen it, this land does not belong to the Ming Dynasty alone." Miura Yuzhen said: "It is closer to the eastern continent from Japan, especially from our Sagami country, than from the mainland of the Ming country.
, we have all seen this route. Although it is difficult to build a ship suitable for navigation, it can be built."
"We must not let the Ming Dynasty dominate this continent." He continued: "This is not only a gift from God to the Ming Dynasty, but also a gift to Japan. There are too many people in Japan, and there are more than a thousand people in three small islands.
Thousands of people, the food grown now is almost not enough for the domestic people. Fortunately, after the Ming Dynasty opened up trade, not only can they make money, but they can also import cheap Ming rice to eat, and later there is even cheaper Nanyang rice. Even because of this
The imperial court in Kansai was worried that too cheap Nanyang rice would bankrupt domestic farmers, thus bankrupting the daimyo. Of course, maybe the Ashikaga family was happy with this."
"Youzhen, their surname is Minamoto now. Even if you don't admit that they are kings, there is no doubt that their ancestors are Minamoto." Fujiwara Keiku suddenly said.
"Those who are so obedient to foreign countries, even the Ming Dynasty, don't expect me to recognize him as the king." Miura Yuzhen said bitterly: "Let's not mention their family. Japan is closer to the eastern continent than the Ming Dynasty is to the eastern continent.
We can organize our own fleet, cross the sea to the mainland, occupy a place as an overseas territory, let farmers who have no land to farm in the country come here to farm, and then send warriors from each family who are willing to explore overseas.
Bian came to manage the farmers. Now because there are too many warriors in the country, many warriors are hungry and have to go to the Ming Dynasty to serve as soldiers and fight. In the future, they can come to the eastern continent, where they can have enough to eat.
And I can continue to serve Japan."
"I think the land here doesn't seem to be suitable for growing rice. I lived in the countryside for a long time when I was a child, and I also went to Daming, so I can distinguish different soils." Fujiwara Keikou added.
"Why do you always say useless things!" Miura Yuzhen glanced at him dissatisfied: "If you can't grow rice, just grow wheat. People in the Ming Dynasty can eat wheat, and we Japanese can also eat wheat."
"The important thing is to get the people of the Ming Dynasty to agree that we occupy a piece of land. This continent is so big that it will not be smaller than the mainland of the Ming Dynasty. The population of the Ming Dynasty is not large, and there are many places where they can immigrate. It is impossible for them to immigrate in a short time.
, it is impossible to fill this land even within a few decades. Why can’t we Japan occupy one area?”
Fujiwara Jingjiu suddenly said: "It is said that the emperor of the Ming Dynasty sealed the entire land across the sea to King Zhu Bai of Xiang. I think he must have regretted it when he knew that this land was so big. In the future, a country comparable to the Ming Dynasty will rise here.
country, even a hundred or even two hundred years from now."
"The Emperor of the Ming Dynasty will never allow this to happen. He will confer many princes and even princes to come here as kings, and he can finally send away all the princes in the country. This will give us the opportunity to start from
The prince who is sealed here has the opportunity to obtain ownership of a certain piece of land, even if it is a very cold place in the north." He continued.
"That's right." Miura Yuzhen said approvingly: "And we can also unite with the merchants of the Ming Dynasty. Even though the status of the merchants of the Ming Dynasty is higher than before, it is still lower, and they are still restricted in the country.
Buy a field. Join us and control a piece of land respectively and become lords in their own fields. They will definitely be willing."
