- "how are you today."
Just as Llano was heading to Lisbon, Zhao Hongyu and Wang Shan had returned to the dock and boarded the battleship.
After seeing Zhao Hongyu come back, Sara took out a towel and still water to wipe Zhao Hongyu's face.
"Is Emma already asleep?"
Zhao Hongyu washed his face, then took the towel and wiped it before asking.
Sarah nodded: "She has already fallen asleep, and now she is very sleepy."
Zhao Hongyu smiled: "I'm growing, so it's normal to take a nap. Things didn't go well today. Pedro was too wary of me, but I told him when I left that he could come if needed. Find me."
Then, Zhao Hongyu told Sara everything about what happened with Pedro today.
"You are too impatient. If you are not impatient, the effect will be much better if you contact him slowly." After listening to Zhao Hongyu's story, Sarah shook her head and poked his forehead with her finger.
Of course Zhao Hongyu knew that he was too impatient, but he really couldn't be in a hurry.
¡°He has been here in Lisbon for two months now, he can¡¯t stay like this forever.
You know, he still has to go to many places in Europe.
Therefore, he wanted to get things done here as soon as possible and implement all the plans. Then he set off for Marseille, France. You must know that there is still a manor waiting for him to take over in Marseille.
¡°And after finishing things in Marseille, he still wants to go to Alexandria, Egypt, to see and feel the customs there.
I heard from Viscount Megan that Alexandria is very interesting. There are beautiful Arab and African slave girls for sale, and there are also Egyptian beauties.
Of course, this is Zhao Hongyu¡¯s little secret in his heart, and he will not tell Sarah and Emma.
"You don't know the situation in Portugal. The Portuguese nobles have resisted before, but they were suppressed by the Spanish." Sara took Zhao Hongyu's hand and walked to the sofa to sit down.
In the captain¡¯s bedroom, the comfortable large bed, sofa and Arabic handmade carpets are all fully equipped.
The candles in the room were extinguished, and while sitting on the sofa, one could see the shimmering sea outside through the boat.
Although it is already night, the bright moonlight in the sky can still add a bit of brightness and mystery.
"There were many early resistances by the Portuguese, but they were all suppressed by Spain. In order to suppress the lurking resisters, the Spanish even used methods like yours to lure those lurking ones to come forward and then arrest them."
Sarah tilted her head, leaned on Zhao Hongyu¡¯s shoulder, and told him about what happened in Portugal.
Zhao Hongyu groaned, "What I said, it turns out that these people are scared by the Spaniards. I understand when you say this. If it were me, I would be careful."
Sara leaned on Zhao Hongyu's shoulder and said: "Even if nothing like this happens, it is right to be careful. After all, Pedro has not been in contact with you for a long time, why should he trust you? This is normal It's something, so you just want to open up."
Zhao Hongyuzhi Neng shrugged helplessly, what else could he say.
¡°After all, what Sarah said is right, I can¡¯t demand Pedro to trust me.
After all, he and Pedro have only been in contact three or four times.
As long as you are a normal person, it is a normal reaction to be wary of your own remarks.
Only idiots and idiots will show off.
Thinking about it from another angle, if Pedro is really like what he thinks, and he has a happy conversation with him immediately after he revealed his intention, maybe it will be his turn to be wary.
When Zhao Hongyu thought of this, he laughed very self-deprecatingly.
"You men, all you think about all day long is fighting and killing. In fact, the territory of the empire is already very large. Do you still want to expand the territory of the empire?"
When Zhao Hongyu was deep in thought, Sarah spoke quietly.
Yes, Sara has seen the map of the Song Empire produced by Wang Shan, so she knows that the territory of the Song Empire is now much larger than that of other European countries.
Therefore, Sarah thinks that managing such a large empire is already quite strenuous.
She just couldn¡¯t understand why she wanted to expand the territory of the empire?
In fact, with the existing land of the empire, they can already live very comfortably.
"My ancestors told me that ifStrength and opportunity are to expand the territory. This is my mission and the responsibility I came to this world. "
Zhao Hongyu turned his head to look at Sara. The two eyes looked at Zhao Hongyu deeply.
Sara felt as if she was attracted by Zhao Hongyu¡¯s deep black eyes, and she couldn¡¯t help herself.
Oh, you damn little man, my whole life will be ruined by you.
Sarah¡¯s body trembled, and a rush of heat rushed downwards in her lower abdomen.
Of course, Zhao Hongyu didn¡¯t know Sara¡¯s reaction.
"As you said, this is the difference between us men and women. For us, war and land are the most attractive, while you women like peace and quiet."
Zhao Hongyu raised his hand and put it on Sara¡¯s nose, making Sara chuckle.
"That's why men manage things outside, while women manage things at home."
"That's ridiculous, but I can't refute you." Sara wrinkled her nose like a little girl and looked at Zhao Hongyu playfully.
"Hey, don't worry about it. When I muddy the water in Europe so that no one can escape, I will seize all the Spanish colonies in Central America in one fell swoop."
Zhao Hongyu stretched out his right hand, stretched out his five fingers and then grasped it in the air.
"At that time, Spain will have no choice but to suffer a loss, because it has no experience to deal with us. And if the Portuguese agent I support succeeds, Spain may no longer exist by then."
Zhao Hongyu looked at Sara and said to her with a smirk on his face.
"What should the British do? I heard that in addition to Virginia, there is now another British colony of Pennsylvania between Virginia and Manhattan." Sara asked. "You can seize Central America if you want, but it's not the same thing if the British colonies are stuck in the middle."
Sarah has seen the map of America produced by Wang Shan, so she knows the overview of European colonies in America.
"The British won't have much reaction if the army assaults them. The ocean is not yet dominated by the British. The Netherlands and France are developing their own maritime power, and Sweden and the Ottomans are not to be outdone. I have analyzed that at this time maritime power situation and made an assessment."
Zhao Hongyu has never cared about the British.
Since defeating them in the first Golden War, Zhao Hongyu has seen that the British are paper-thin.
??Besides, Britain in this era is no longer the maritime hegemon.
You must know that Britain became a maritime hegemon only after defeating Napoleon.
In this era, although Britain defeated the Spanish Armada, there were still Dutch and other countries competing with it.
And the Dutch have begun to replace the Spanish in the sea.
It can be said that the British did not start to be awesome after defeating Spain as they boasted.
Facing Britain, which has not yet become a maritime hegemon, Zhao Hongyu has nothing to worry about.
Even though Britain is now the maritime hegemon, Zhao Hongyu has nothing to worry about.
Just the Atlantic Ocean can make many things beneficial to Zhao Hongyu.
¡°Besides, Zhao Hongyu still has a plug-in.
Even if Britain is strong and the coast destroys all his efforts, Zhao Hongyu still has five small cities under development in the middle of America. It can be said that with those five small cities, he can still make a comeback in a few years.
The British simply couldn't deal with him.
The mere act of guerrilla warfare in the American forests would give the British a drink.
Therefore, Zhao Hongyu is not worried at all that his annexation of British colonies will cause too much reaction from Britain.
"My dear, your idea is very good. Even if we don't consider the British, the Spanish colonies in Central America still have many warships. This is also an indisputable fact. The number of imperial warships is much smaller. "
Sarah brought up another concern.
"Since Spain wants to gain more interests in Central America, naval battles are inevitable. In an empire with a huge disadvantage in terms of the number of warships, I am very worried."
Ha ha
Zhao Hongyu laughed: "In my opinion, your worries are completely unnecessary. Now the empire can start manufacturing battleships. Just like the battleship we are riding on, ten of them can be launched by next spring. As for the Dutch, warshipFifty ships will be launched by the end of the year. "
Sarah curled her lips, "Even so, the number is still very small. The Spanish have more than 600 warships in the Caribbean."
Although she didn¡¯t want to hurt her little man, Sarah had to tell him the actual situation to remind him.
"Recently, Song Hu has developed a new tactic. After it is verified, it will not be difficult to destroy the Spanish fleet in the Caribbean Sea." Zhao Hongyu said to Sara, thinking of the strange battle plan Song Hu was working on.
"It's always good to be careful. I don't want anything to go wrong with you. Sometimes people are too aggressive and make things messy." Sara said patiently to Zhao Hongyu.
Zhao Hongyu nodded repeatedly: "My dear, don't worry. I am not the kind of person who is careless. I have a very complete idea about the Caribbean plan. As long as it goes smoothly, there is nothing to worry about."
Zhao Hongyu raised his arms and hugged Sara, and said to her softly.
"I don't want to see the future of the empire ruined. If we fail, you will have to pay a lot of compensation."
Sarah said to Zhao Hongyu very seriously. (To be continued. Please search Piaotian Literature, the novels will be better and updated faster!) - Didn't finish reading?
