- Amid the raging fire in the city of Yaksali, three Galenic sailing ships left the port.
The British could only watch helplessly as Zhao Hongyu and the others left. There was nothing they could do about it.
There are only three ships in Yaksali City now.
They can¡¯t swim to chase them.
No one would have thought that the target of these indigenous people would be the Galen ship.
This Indian armed force is different from other Indians. Other Indians have no interest in sea ships. What they care about are British small commodities and matchlock guns, as well as iron weapons and utensils.
¡°In all these years, no one has seen an Indian who can operate a sea ship.
Therefore, no one thinks that there will be Indians who will target ships in the port.
¡°This is also careless on the part of the British.
In the minds of the British, they always believed that the target of these Indians should be places such as the Governor's Mansion or military warehouses.
But to their surprise, these Indians first raided the tax office and then left there quickly.
The British could see clearly that these Indians took nothing when they left.
In fact, they know that all the property in the tax office has been taken away, but they don¡¯t know the reason.
After Zhao Hongyu and the others left Yaksali City for a long time, the British discovered that the taxes they were supposed to transport back to the UK were missing. For this reason, they thought that someone from within had done this, which led to a period of great turmoil. .
Countless British people under suspicion have undergone strict scrutiny.
But no one doubts the Indian tribe that once invaded the city and caused huge losses.
Because many people saw with their own eyes that although the Indians rushed into the tax office, they left quickly. In such a short period of time, the Indians could not take away the gold stored in the tax office.
That¡¯s a whole meal of gold bars.
Therefore, Zhao Hongyu and the others were eliminated from suspicion.
How did the poor British guys know that it was this person who was eliminated from suspicion that was the ultimate beneficiary?
The Somali people on the deck sang majestic songs and held the cables in their hands to operate the sails.
The hull swayed slightly and sailed north at a speed of 8 knots.
Because they did not sail in deep sea areas, but along the east coast. So some albatross kept wandering around the ship, flapping their wings and making "ouch" calls from time to time.
Occasionally, these seabirds will rush from the sky into the sea like spears, and when they surface, they will often have a fish in their mouths.
In the battle of Yaksali City, Zhao Hongyu lost more than a hundred men.
Now there are only 712 gene people left under his command.
And the Anuch warriors, after such a long battle, lost 18 people and still had 32 people left.
If you don¡¯t count the losses of Anuchi¡¯s soldiers, Zhao Hongyu actually made a profit from his battle in the Virginia area.
After leaving Yaksali City, Zhao Hongyu finally felt relieved.
And the huge harvest also put a bright smile on his face.
Wang Shan stood behind Zhao Hongyu, while Song Hu and Lamour commanded a sea ship respectively.
"Chief, this harvest is really big. When we return to Manhattan Island, even if we can't get income within half a year because of the war, we don't have to worry about this harvest."
Standing on the loft at the stern of the ship, Zhao Hongyu let the warm sea breeze blow on his face.
¡°It¡¯s summer already, time flies so fast.¡±
Zhao Hongyu sighed.
"Yes, time flies so fast. We have been in this era for half a year."
Wang Shan echoed beside Zhao Hongyu.
Zhao Hongyu looked back at the busy gene people, and then at those gene people sitting on the deck to rest.
"The harvest from this trip was great, and a whole meal of gold fell into my hands. We will not be short of development expenses for the time being, at least in a short period of time."
Zhao Hongyu¡¯s face was full of smiles, and it was obvious that he was very happy.
"Chief, according to our speed, we can return to Manhattan Island in three days. But where will we face the British next? Do you have any plans?"
 Hearing this, Zhao Hongyu put away his smile and thought about it seriously.
"There is nothing left to consider, defeat them! Drive them out of the original Mohawk territory. Only in this way can we get a stable development time."
Wang Shan asked again: "So, leader, after selling this gold, do you plan to use it to create genetic humans or invest in technology?"
Zhao Hongyu said: "You should grab it with both hands at the same time. A meal of gold is worth a lot of money."
Wang Shan nodded and did not continue to ask.
"You just watch here, I'm going to see how much benefit this meal of gold can bring me."
¡°We will arrive in Manhattan in three days, and Zhao Hongyu needs to take advantage of this time to find some genetic talents. Now that he has three more Galen ships, after returning to Manhattan, he can fully say that the gene people are reinforcements sent by his 'original' tribe.
This explanation is still acceptable to the Mohicans.
Arriving at the captain¡¯s cabin at the stern of the ship, Zhao Hongyu found a chair and sat down. He rubbed the ruby ??ring on his left middle finger and opened the time and space trader.
At that time, Zhao Hongyu rushed into the tax office and sold the gold inside without having time to check the price.
At this time, he opened his virtual account and found out that the ton of gold was sold for 340 million yuan.
Once you have money in your hands, there are so many things you can do.
Somali gangster Zhao Hongyu doesn¡¯t want to continue cultivating them. Although they are very cheap, they already account for the majority of the population in his group.
Zhao Hongyu also doesn¡¯t know if Lamour will become ambitious if things continue like this.
This is something he has to consider.
Therefore, Zhao Hongyu must increase the number of Chinese people.
¡°Anyway, I have money now¡ª¡ª
Dividing line¡ª¡ª
Three days later, Zhao Hongyu returned to Manehattan Island.
But when he landed on Manhattan Island, he suddenly found that something was not right about the atmosphere on the island.
"Zhang Tie, what happened on the island?"
Looking at Zhang Tie who looked very strange, Zhao Hongyu asked.
After Zhang Tie hesitated for a moment, he whispered to Zhao Hongyu: "There has been a plague on the island recently, and many people have been infected."
Hiss!
Zhao Hongyu took a breath of air-conditioning. He was very clear about the severity of the plague.
"How's the situation?"
Zhang Tie shook his head: "The situation is not optimistic. Many of the people who retreated to the island from Mohican have died, and the Indian slaves have also been affected. The situation of the British prisoners is relatively good, but some people have died. "
"How were those corpses disposed of?"
Zhao Hongyu knew that if the plague was not handled well, none of them would be spared.
¡°They were cremated, and the infected patients began to be isolated, but the effect was not great.¡±
Zhang Tie has been worried about this matter these days. People keep dying every day, and even some genetic people are infected.
Fortunately, now that the leader has returned to Manhattan Island, he can finally breathe a sigh of relief.
"Where are the black bears and the others?"
Zhao Hongyu asked.
"I know the situation on your side. The Mohican tribe was attacked. So the Mohicans retreated from the Great Plains. It was with this matter in mind that I rushed back."
Zhang Tie replied: "Black Bear was originally fighting guerrillas against the British, but the plague was also prevalent among his troops, so this led to a sharp reduction in their combat effectiveness. Therefore, Black Bear had to retreat to Manhattan Island with the Mohican warriors. .¡±
"Other tribes who came to help in the battle were also affected by the plague, and they all returned to their tribes." Zhang Tie worriedly told Zhao Hongyu about the current situation.
Hearing this, Zhao Hongyu raised his eyebrows: "When they went back, didn't they bring the epidemic with them? More people would die. Didn't you tell them?"
Zhang Tie smiled bitterly: "I said it, but they didn't believe me. I couldn't stop him at all."
¡°Yes, Zhang Tieren spoke softly, but the leaders of the tribes didn¡¯t believe what he said at all.
They all thought that this was because they offended the gods by starting a war with the white skins, so the gods sent down punishment to make them suffer.
This bizarre view was actually recognized by many people, so they united to fight against the British and they split in a short period of time.
"Let me think of a way, I hope it can be of some use. Fortunately, I earned a vote in the Virginia area, otherwise I really don't know what to do."
At this time, Wang Shan, Song Hu and Lamour also came over. When they heard Zhang Tie said that a plague was spreading on the island, their faces became solemn.
"What kind of epidemic is it?"
Wang Shan interrupted and asked.
"Smallpox!"
Zhang Tie named the types of epidemics prevalent this time.
"Damn it, this must be a germ brought by the British. Only they can have this kind of thing on their bodies."
Lamour cursed in a low voice.
"Now is not the time for us to talk about this kind of thing, let's think about how to treat the disease."
Zhao Hongyu¡¯s brows knitted together tightly.
"Buy some vaccines, I hope it will be useful." Zhang Tie gave a suggestion.
Zhao Hongyu and the others looked at each other, and finally he nodded.
Now there is no other way, I can only do this to see if it is effective.
In fact, the best way now is to let the Mohicans die like this, but Zhao Hongyu cannot do such a scumbag thing.
Many genetic people got off the ship one after another. Zhang Tie took a look and said: "Chief, your harvest this time is really quite big. The team has expanded a lot." (To be continued.
