- Generally speaking, the life of the pirates in the camp arranged for them on Manhattan Island was very good.
¡°After all, these guys have money, and if they have money, their life in Manhattan will be very high-quality.
If you want food, you can.
I can buy it for you if you give me money.
If you want a woman, that¡¯s okay.
If you give them money, the gang can help them find it.
As long as they have money, their life here can be said to be a fairy-like life.
Song Hu was notified of the Earl of the Deep Sea by the gang, and then Song Hu asked Chelsea's subordinates to deploy some sailors to take control of the Earl of the Deep Sea and then drove it into the shipyard to start modifications.
Since the gangs and pirates cooperated, Manhattan should have bought three sea ships.
Such cooperation is also beneficial to Manhattan.
After all, they don¡¯t have the technology to build big ships yet, so using this method to get sea-going ships is not an option.
At the same time, after these sea-going ships were bought back, the carpenters began to study these sea-going ships. Disassemble it bit by bit, study it thoroughly, and then assemble it back together.
At the same time, modify the hull.
Through this method, the skills of the carpenters in the shipyard have been greatly improved.
And after studying the keel and hull structure of the sea-going ship, they have now collected a lot of technical information and materials, and have begun to build the kind of battleship that Zhao Hongyu mentioned.
It¡¯s just that the construction of battleships is very time-consuming and cannot be built in a short time.
Therefore, Manhattan¡¯s naval power cannot be too strong for a period of time.
However, through modification, Manhattan's navy has increased from four to six ships, which is considered to be slowly growing.
Now that there is one more Earl of the Deep, Manhattan's naval power has been improved again.
Strictly speaking, seven double-decker ships are not powerful weapons at all.
However, the Manhattan in front of us can only use this kind of sea-going ship.
After modification, these ships will not be recognized at all.
Therefore, the cooperation between the gangs and the pirates can continue.
Manhattan also knows that its naval strength is not good, so they are not stupid enough to think that they can compete with the Europeans for hegemony at sea now.
This is very unrealistic.
Today¡¯s Manhattan naval policy is to guard the entrance to Manhattan.
Seven sea-going ships, combined with the forts along the coast, are more than enough to deal with ordinary attacks.
Manhattan can easily resolve the attack of thirty warships.
In other words, Manhattan is still focused on defense, and offense is absolutely out of the question.
Only after the battleships are built can Manhattan begin its quest for ocean hegemony.
¡° Moreover, we have to wait until the navy forms a certain number and scale, otherwise it will not be realistic to compete for ocean hegemony with just a few battleships.
The plan is already in place, and there are also some auxiliary plans.
Now everything is developing smoothly according to plan, no one knows what Manhattan will eventually develop into.
¡°Pirates only care about money and don¡¯t care about these things.
¡°In fact, how do they know that the people who are cooperating with them now will become the ones who destroy them in the future¡ª¡ª
Dividing line¡ª¡ª
"You are finally back."
Zhao Hongyu and others rode into the camp, where Emma had already been waiting for him.
When Zhao Hongyu tightened the reins and turned over to dismount, Emma threw herself into his arms.
The little girl has been pretending to be strong these days, directing the genetic people to fight.
In fact, she has been holding on.
Now that her man is back, Emma is finally relieved of her worries.
Zhao Hongyu raised his hand and patted Emma's back gently, comforting her with a gentle voice.
"What on earth happened?"
After comforting Emma, ??Zhao Hongyu asked.
Seeing Zhao Hongyu asking questions, Emma told Zhao Hongyu intermittently everything that happened after he left.
While listening to Emma¡¯s story, Zhao Hongyu turned around and winked at Wang Shan, signaling Wang Shan to take Sara to follow him.
Then, a few of them came to sit in the big tent in the center of the camp.
¡°That¡¯s it, is there any reaction from the Iroquois people?¡±
After listening to Emma¡¯s story, Zhao Hongyu asked.
"Not long ago, the Iroquois encountered those guys and had a fierce fight. As a result, those guys seemed to have retreated, and the Iroquois were gathering troops to prepare to enter the areas controlled by the French to seek revenge on them. .¡±
Emma revealed that people from the Cayuga tribe came to her to tell her what had happened.
"Oh, are the Iroquois going to fight back? It seems like there's going to be chaos here, so we have to find a way to get out of this vortex now."
Zhao Hongyu pondered for a moment after hearing this.
"Your Highness, it's still winter. It's impossible for the Iroquois to launch a war in winter. After all, they don't have good cold-proof clothing."
At this time, Wang Shan, who had been silent, spoke.
¡°Hmm, it seems that¡¯s really the case.
Being reminded by Wang Shan, Zhao Hongyu really thought of this issue.
"Yeah, you're right. It's still winter, and the temperature outside is really cold, especially at night. And the Iroquois don't have strong cold-proof clothing, so it's impossible for them to launch it at this time. A big fight."
Zhao Hongyu murmured.
After listening to the conversation between Zhao Hongyu and Wang Shan, Emma tilted her head and thought for a while before interjecting: "No, the Cayuga people bought a lot of cotton-padded clothes from us. The cotton-padded clothes in our warehouse are basically They've bought up everything."
"Ah, if that's the case. Then there won't be any difficulty in launching an attack in winter." As soon as Emma said this, Zhao Hongyu slapped his thigh heavily.
"Let someone prepare lunch. We didn't eat in the morning and we are a little hungry now."
Zhao Hongyu raised his hand and signaled to Wang Shan.
Wang Shan nodded, stood up and got ready to go.
At this time, Zhao Hongyu nodded apologetically to Sara: "I'm very sorry. After I came back, I found something unexpected happened in our camp, so I need to know what happened, so I left you a little bit cold."
Sarah didn¡¯t show any dissatisfaction, she kept a smile on her face.
Emma blinked, looked at the woman her husband had brought back, and then turned to look at Zhao Hongyu. His big eyes were full of questioning look.
"Come, let me introduce you. This sister's name is Sarah, and she is the legal owner of the lord of Quebec." After Zhao Hongyu saw Emma looking at him, he quickly introduced her.
¡°Hello, sister.¡± Emma greeted in Mohican.
Zhao Hongyu made a guest appearance as a translator, translating Emma¡¯s words into French.
At such a time, the power of language plug-ins is reflected.
"Hello, beautiful and lovely ***." Sara maintained her aristocratic demeanor and nodded slightly. However, she still felt a little uneasy in her heart at this moment.
¡°After all, she left Quebec and came to Zhao Hongyu¡¯s territory alone.
Now she doesn¡¯t know what will happen.
As if aware of Sarah's uneasiness, Zhao Hongyu raised his hand and placed it on the back of her right hand. He said to her: "Don't think wildly. Although there is no love between us yet, I will not hurt you."
"Why did Sarah follow Zhao Hongyu and leave Quebec alone?
Speaking of which, Sarah had no choice.
Because now she is really desperate and even her life is threatened.
The guards who followed her were easily bribed by Leon and others. It can be said that she has no support at all in the New World of America.
??And here in Quebec, he suffered two assassinations.
This also allowed her to see her situation clearly.
Therefore, she listened to Zhao Hongyu¡¯s words and absolutely cooperated with Zhao Hongyu.
¡°That¡¯s why Sara followed Zhao Hongyu and left Quebec City without anyone else.
God knows if the person she takes with her will be bribed again, Sara doesn¡¯t dare to take such a risk.
??Besides, although Zhao Hongyu has no relationship with her and has sex every day, it is impossible for her to think so much now.
Compare it with those who can¡¯t believe it,??Hongyu, my little lover who I have sex with every day, is actually a trustworthy person.
"This is Emma, ??my queen, the king recognized by all Indians in Manhattan." Zhao Hongyu also introduced Emma to Sara, and then translated Sara's words to Emma.
"According to what you said, in the future your territory will become larger and larger, so this little guy will also have more and more belongings." After all, Sarah is older than Emma, ??so the Manhattan area that Zhao Hongyu just mentioned She could still hear the meaning of "King of Indians".
Regarding Sarah¡¯s inquiry, Zhao Hongyu did not intend to hide it.
He nodded and replied: "Yes! My queen will definitely be the king of the Indians in the future, and our children will become the masters of the empire and the Indians. There is no way around it. As my territory expands, those It is normal for tribes that do not surrender to us to be destroyed and annihilated."
Sara nodded silently, she didn¡¯t think there was anything wrong with doing this.
"Then what are you going to do?"
Sarah has already acquiesced to her current identity. She is now the lover of this foreign boy, and she is still valuable to him.
As for the rest, Sarah no longer has extravagant hopes.
But she is not so stupid as to think that she can shake Emma's status and pursue her own unrealistic status.
She is no longer a child, and the cruel reality has left her to know where her place is and what to do to ensure her safety and life.
"Get along slowly, I will definitely give you a position. In the future of Quebec, you will still be the lord. But you have no military power or tax rights. You just enjoy the benefits that the territory brings to you."
Zhao Hongyu has long planned how to deal with the woman he has a sexual relationship with.
So, when she asked this question, he quickly gave an answer.
Emma blinked. The little girl relied on a woman's sixth sense to feel that her husband had an unusual relationship with this woman with big breasts.
Looking down at her flat chest, Emma curled her lips.
"What if I am pregnant with your child? Will he have the right to inherit the throne of the empire?"
Sarah was a little nervous. She knew that it would be unwise to ask this question in her current capacity.
But Sara also knew that something like this would happen sooner or later, so she had to prepare in advance.
Zhao Hongyu was stunned for a moment. To be honest, he really hadn't considered this.
But since Sarah has already asked this question, it¡¯s okay if he doesn¡¯t answer.
Well Zhao Hongyu thought about it very carefully, and then said to Sara very cautiously: "I don't know now, because I don't have a child yet. So I can't answer you, but if you really have one, As for children, I think I will make good arrangements for my children."
In fact, saying this is no different than not saying it, but for the time being, it saves Sara from having to struggle with this issue.
" Zhao Hongyu was thinking that he would discuss it with Wang Shan and Song Hu. If he really wanted to have descendants, he would really have to consider the inheritance issue carefully.
Afterwards, several people began to chat about some less sensitive issues, and Zhao Hongyu kept translating between the two women.
Overall, the atmosphere was very harmonious.
¡°Are you going to let this woman be your second wife?¡±
Suddenly, Emma looked at Zhao Hongyu seriously and asked a question.
? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?
Zhao Hongyu coughed, and then looked at Emma uneasily.
Emma¡¯s little face is very serious and tight.
Should we deceive this little guy?
Zhao Hongyu thought about it, but he felt that he should not deceive Emma. After all, he and Emma were already husband and wife. Although there was no substantial relationship, the Indians recognized it.
¡°Besides, with Emma here, the Indians in Manhattan will feel at ease.
And when Manhattan expanded, these Indians who had become citizens of the empire could also become good role models and examples. To guide the Indians who occupy the territory in the future to integrate into the empire.
It can be said that Emma¡¯s status as queen is very important.
For this reason, Zhao Hongyu must maintain a good relationship with Emma.
Thinking of this, Zhao Hongyu decided not to tell lies to Emma.
He nodded: "Yes, I plan to marry her as my second wife."
The violent storm she imagined did not come, and Emma still looked serious.
"Why?", the little girl asked.
"The thing is like this" Zhao Hongyu explained to Emma why he wanted Sara to be his wife. And the reason why after finding Sarah as his wife, Quebec will nominally belong to the empire, and when they attack Quebec, they will encounter less resistance from the Tao.
After listening to Zhao Hongyu¡¯s story, Emma let out a long breath.
"The dowry is too small. It should be more. Ask her if the dowry can be more."
But then, Emma's words made Zhao Hongyu completely confused (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to register as a member of Piaotian Literature to recommend this work.
