Daming, the capital.
After all the way back to the capital smoothly, it still caused a huge sensation! Not to mention other things, this time Yang Shanlu went to Goryeo and the treasure island of Ryukyu, and brought back a large number of rare items, like good Korean ginseng, and a lot of precious gems, good quality deer. Skin... Anyway, there are so many good things!
In addition, Yangshan Arundinacea also pays great attention to the introduction of excellent foreign species (the previous sweet potato was introduced from South America).
For example, he brought back a lot of betel nut seeds from Treasure Island, including earlier from Spurs, and also brought back a lot of tropical fruit trees or seeds, so that they can be transplanted to Fujian and other tropical areas for planting in the future. It will benefit the people of Daming and promote the cultural exchanges between the East and the West!
Of course, in addition to these items, the dozen or so blond and blue-eyed red hairpins brought back this time also aroused great interest among the people... I heard that these red hairpins are very cruel, kill people without blinking, and use force. Super strong, but now, they are all prisoners, and they have to accept a just trial!
Then Yang Shanlu went all the way to Beijing like this. After seeing Emperor Chongzhen all the time, Emperor Chongzhen was very happy... You know that Liuqiu was China's territory in history, but it was brutally occupied by the Dutch before! But now, after nearly half a century, I finally returned to my mother's embrace!
Insert a sentence, the book-chasing app I am using recently, cache reading, offline reading!
So next, after taking out the world map that Yang Shanlu drew for him, Emperor Chongzhen painted the national flag of Daming on the location of Liuqiu Island and marked the territory of Daming. And such joy... Now Every step taken is a new height!
After the monarch and his ministers had a chat, Yang Shanlu told him about the next plan before leaving the palace. Then Yang Shanlu returned to the Yang Mansion and went to see his father Yang Sichang.
Then after Yang Sichang saw Yang Shanlu return smoothly again, the joy is even more needless to say... Yang Shanlu is doing things that no one has done before, opening up territory for Daming! And this man is his son!
And for Yang Shanlu’s expedition this time, he was most concerned about the capture of the Dutch Governor’s Mansion. Yang Sichang asked about the battle process in detail, and when he learned that the Xuanjia Army easily defeated the sharp guns. After the Dutchman did something that even the Dragon King of the South China Sea hadn't done, Yang Sichang was more satisfied, and the unexplained look in his eyes became more obvious.
Then Yang Shanlu saw this, and felt something in his heart... It seemed that something he didn't know had happened. After the expedition, it was necessary to go back and ask his beloved wife Wuyunna, what happened in the middle!
Then, Yang Shanlu stayed in the capital for three days. After a short rest, he led the Great China Fleet back to Dengzhou Mansion.
Then Yang Shanlu is about to continue on the journey after a month of rest in Dengzhou Mansion.
Of course, his destination this time is to target a more powerful country, and a country that has committed more crimes against the Chinese people... that is, to aim eastward towards Dongying! (Japan//This) To the south, we must aim at Java and Annan (India//Nigeria and Vietnam//South). Anyway, these countries that have committed crimes against the Chinese people, Yang Shanlu will have to clean up!
For example, the reason for dealing with Dongying is simply needless to say. Let’s not say that in the later generations of the Eight-Nation Allied Forces, the small Dongying was the main force in sending troops... by conquering the weaker Manchu to feed back itself! As for the subsequent eight years of the War of Resistance, let alone, this is a painful memory that cannot be forgotten so far!
Even after the founding of the new China, this country still remains unchanged. Of course, it is not an open looting, but a secret looting! Started to use the trick of kidnapping...
For example, they took advantage of the Chinese people's kindness and unpreparedness to steal the Jingdezhen porcelain manufacturing process and the rice paper manufacturing process from China.
Even more simply, Xiao Ri Ben himself rushed to register a trademark in the world, such as registering a trademark for the ancient Chinese handicraft "Celadon", and the origin of China's celadon became Li Gui, Xiao Ri Ben. Became an authentic trademark holder! So such a despicable and shameless... So for such a country, is there anything to let it go
As for dealing with Java and Annan, it is almost the same. Let’s talk about Java first. This is also a country full of malice towards China! In other words, those people who are useless and do not look good in other countries are all such virtues!
Looking through the history, we know that, for example, the Chinese used to be good at pioneering and have the tradition of going to Southeast Asia, so a large number of Chinese went to Java to make a living, and because of the diligence and kindness of the Chinese, they were generally able to make a fortune and lead a good life. Javanese are jealous!
For example, between 1965 and 1966, the state government of Java massacred nearly 300,000 Chinese! Under the boring numbers are a lively life! Just fell under their butcher knife!
And also need to pay attention, this is the behavior of the government! It's a national behavior! Moreover, Java and China are still two non-neighboring countries, and he will not be able to kill as many Chinese, otherwise... So should we take revenge for such a country
Including Annan monkeys are also similar goods, so according to Yang Shanlu's plan, after the rest, follow the order of Dongying, Java, and Annan one by one, and settle the ledger with them one by one!
Then just like this, when he was about to set off, at his temporary special envoy's house, suddenly a personal guard came to report that a man who claimed to be Xu Hongzu came to see him! Ask if you want to bring it in
"Xu Hongzu?" Yang Shanlu was a little confused when he heard it, as if he didn't have this person in his impression!
But then he called out in surprise... Xu Hongzu? No. Xiake, isn't this Xu Xiake! It's no wonder that he didn't react for a while, mainly because Xu Xiake was so famous that he covered up his real name. Of course, it is not too late for him to react.
So Yang Shanlu immediately ordered: "Hurry up!"
And there is a reason why Yang Shanlu is so excited, Xu Xiake is a strange man in history! When he was a boy, he set the ambition of "a man who is in the blue sea and shining in the sky"! After 30 years of travel and exploration, he eventually became a famous geographer, traveler and writer in the Ming Dynasty!
The 600,000-character geography masterpiece "Xu Xiake's Travel Notes" that he compiled based on this has become a rare masterpiece in Chinese history! Therefore, compared with him, the famous Bei, who is famous in later generations, is not at the same level!
And most importantly, the arrival of such a geographer at the time of his expedition was very helpful for his next operations.
Take Dongying, which is about to set off next, one of the characteristics of Dongying Kingdom is that it is rich in gold, silver, and copper. Then Yang Shanlu travels all the way around. Can you not get back some of these fiercely
The only problem is that although Yang Shanlu has some impressions of some well-known gold and silver mines, it was three hundred years ago and may not be able to find an accurate position, but now with Xu Xiake joining, then this problem can be solved. It was resolved easily... Is Xu Xiake's ability still doubtful
What makes Yang Shanlu more delighted is that this can also make Xu Xiake's life more colorful! Think about it, Xu Xiake in history is limited by various constraints. In his "Xu Xiake's Travels", he only wrote about traveling in Daming's own country, even if it was traveling in Daming's own country, because the original history was full of various difficulties. The robbers are rampant, disasters are everywhere, and it is very difficult to travel.
However, because of Yang Shanlu’s changes, he can not only travel safely to his home country, but also to explore overseas. The travel diaries of Dongying, Annan and other countries in the world are added to his travels, and it becomes a world famous book similar to Marco Polo’s travels. What impact should it have
Therefore, based on the above, Yang Shanlu was really overjoyed for Xu Xiake’s arrival (that is, Xu Xiake’s characteristics are determined by him. He usually lives in an unfixed place and is difficult to visit, otherwise Yang Shanlu would have sent someone to look for it. Him).
Of course, even so, Yang Shanlu also has doubts. According to historical records, Xu Xiake should have passed away two years ago, but how can he still be alive in this world now? Of course, after I met him, I knew it all.
So next, after the guards led out, a middle-aged man was soon led in, and then when Yang Shanlu saw him, he knew that this person was just like Xu Xiake who had replaced him, because of this. People fit his perceptions of geographers and travellers.
I saw that the person who came was the height of an ordinary person, but he looked very capable, with very coordinated hands and feet, and a strong wind and frost on his face. He was obviously a person who had been on the go all year round.
Including the people's eyes are also very sharp, and obviously they can find details that ordinary people can't find, so this is completely in line with Yang Shanlu's positioning of Xu Xiake.
And Yang Shanlu also knows that Xu Xiake is actually not very famous in this era, so even if some scammers want to deceive, they usually pretend to be dignitaries to deceive, instead of impersonating him, so this is the real thing. Xu Xiake...
At this time, Xu Xiake, after seeing Yang Shanlu, knew that this was the well-known General Zhenguo, and he was also a person he admired very much, so he knelt down and said: "Caomin Jiangyin Xu Hongzu, I have seen Lord Hou."
"Where and where!" Yang Shanlu would let him do such a big gift, so he quickly pulled him up, and after some politeness, the two were seated separately for the guest and the host.
Then after a brief conversation between Yang Shanlu and him, based on the other party's profound knowledge of geography and a clear understanding of the world under his feet, Yang Shanlu was even more certain... This is Xu Xiake who is just like a fake replacement.
It’s just that Yang Shanlu still has doubts. Look at the appearance of Xu Xiake. Although it is not physically strong, it is by no means a sickly look. Seeing her mental state is okay, Yang Shanlu is a little puzzled. Said: "Mr. Hongzu travels all the year round, and if he has a meal and sleeps, can his body still fit properly?" (End of this chapter)
