Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    It's really unexpected. I originally thought that the things that this crown prince from America asked the prince to tell me were nothing more than idiotic dreams.

    With these people who have traveled across the ocean to come here, they want to fight with the Japanese?

    This is obviously very unrealistic.

    And they also want to seize the Japanese land from the Japanese hands and make it their own, which is even more unrealistic.

    Although the other party¡¯s conditions made him very excited, the current situation also forced Li Xiang to face this reality.  But Li Xiang decided to wait and see. After all, he was very unfavorable about Zhao Hongyu's military operations against the Japanese.

    If you take it slow, you can try to avoid getting yourself and your brothers involved in a unnecessary whirlpool.

    In Li Xiang¡¯s view, if the crown prince from America was defeated by the Japanese, he would be defeated by the Japanese.  There is a high possibility that the crown prince will lose his life.

    By that time, although he had received the benefit of nineteen European-style warships, he didn¡¯t have to accept this favor, right?

    However, what Li Xiang didn¡¯t expect was that the development of the Japanese situation here was not at all like what he had judged. It was the Japanese who defeated these people from the Americas.

    On the contrary, it was His Royal Highness the Crown Prince from America who used absolute strength and ferocious power to seize Kyushu from the Japanese, and took a large piece of land from the hands of the Japanese.

    ???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? Out of the Ming Dynasty, such martial arts can be regarded as opening up territory and expanding the territory, which can leave a name in history.

    This was completely beyond Li Xiang¡¯s expectation No, he never thought it would be like this.

    A few days ago, just half a day after Nagasaki surrendered, Li Xiang received the news.

    On the Nagasaki side, Li Xiang deployed a lot of spies. When Nagasaki fell, the spies belonging to Li Xiang seized a sea ship and rushed out of Nagasaki Port, bringing the news back.

    Amami Island is not very far from Nagasaki, so Li Xiang did not wait too long to get news about the fall of Nagasaki.

    At this point, Li Xiangcai was stunned to believe all these facts.

    In fact, when Zhao Hongyu was campaigning in Kyushu, Li Xiang also received a lot of news from spies.

    Especially the information about the battle of Maitreya, but Li Xiang doesn't believe it.

    He simply did not believe that the crown prince from America could defeat the Kyushu Allied Forces with less than 150,000 troops.

    This thing sounds a bit like a story, maybe it is just bragging.

    Yes, you are just bragging!

    "However, Li Xiang didn't think about it. If it was bragging, the Japanese would also have some reaction.

    It¡¯s just that Li Xiang at that time was stubborn and didn¡¯t believe it all.

    But now, he can no longer believe it.

    Because His Highness from America has led his army to sweep through the entire Kyushu, firmly controlling Kyushu in his own hands.

    But here, the Japanese started a melee because of the position of the shogun.

    Anyone with a discerning eye can see that today¡¯s Japanese people¡¯s thoughts are not on Kyushu at all.  Their chaos will last at least a few years.

    By the time a few years pass, Jiuzhou will already be impregnable.

    If the Japanese come to attack us at that time, it will definitely not be that easy.

    And this crown prince from America, with less than 10,000 troops, was able to defeat the coalition army of 150,000 people, and he had such a powerful army.

    So if the Japanese want to attack in the future, how many troops will they need?

    But the problem is, after owning Kyushu, God knows whether the crown prince from America will send troops from the other side of the sea.

    "It doesn't need to be much. As long as fifty or sixty thousand troops are deployed in Kyushu, then you don't have to worry about anything."

    What¡¯s more, in addition to the fierce Song Empire army, they can also form a Kyushu Japanese army of 100,000 people.  The Japanese should also think about this combination.

    Of course, Li Xiang does not need to worry about this problem. If it is a headache, it should be a headache for the Japanese.

    As for Li Xiang, what she has to do now is to rush to Nagasaki to meet the crown prince.

    Now that he has established a foothold in Nagasaki, it can be said that as long as he, Li Xiang, takes refuge there, Kyushu will be open to him.

    By then, Li Xiang will also be able to have a toughAt the same time, you no longer have to worry about high-priced supplies.  At the same time, brothers and family members on Amami Island can also leave Amami Island and live in Nagasaki, which is more suitable for living.

    But what he was a little worried about was that he had not responded to the crown prince for such a long time.  And will this attitude of mine cause displeasure to others?

    Yes, Li Xiang was worried at this time.

    But there is no point in worrying, the fact is already the case.

    Therefore, he immediately summoned his subordinates and told everyone his decision frankly.

    That is, he is ready to seek refuge with the crown prince from America.

    Li Xiang¡¯s subordinates are of course very supportive of Li Xiang¡¯s decision.

    In fact, the current situation is already very unfavorable for them.

    If they can't think of any way, what awaits them is to be defeated by Zheng Zhilong and then taste the bitter fruit of failure.

    People like them will die when they die, there is nothing to say.

    Since they have embarked on this path, they all have this awareness.

    But the problem is, they have to think about their families.

    It would be easy if they died, but what about their families?

    This guy Zheng Zhilong is cruel and ruthless, and he is not someone to be dealt with.

    Once these people are gone, their families on Amami Island will not have anything good to eat.  By the time Zheng Zhilong captures Amami Island, their family members will probably be worse off than dead. Death will be a very luxurious thing by then.

    ??Didn¡¯t Naha, under the control of Li Xiang, encounter such a situation?

    At that time, Naha was still controlled by Li Xiang.  However, as Zheng Zhilong grew stronger, Li Xiang gradually fell at a disadvantage, and Naha inevitably fell into the flames of war.

    At that time, Mrs. Wang and others followed Li Xiang and fought Zheng Zhilong in the sea near Naha, and fell into the hands of the Dutch.

    In that naval battle of Naha, the battle was for the control of Naha.

    The loss of Naha is a heavy loss for Li Xiang, because Naha is the main maritime route to Southeast Asia.  Once Naha is lost, Li Xiang will completely lose Southeast Asia.

    Li Xiang has been running Naha for many years, and there are many of his subordinates and family members in Naha.

    After that failure, it didn¡¯t take long for Naha to fall into Zheng Zhilong¡¯s control.

    And all of Li Xiang¡¯s subordinates and their families living in Naha were executed by Zheng Zhilong without exception.

    It can be seen from this that when Zheng Zhilong leads the integrated troops to come over and capture Amami Island.  Then these people on Amami Island will inevitably end up like those brothers in Naha.

    Therefore, some old brothers around Li Xiang, such as his sworn brothers, left Li Xiang and went to Zheng Zhilong.

    At that time, Zheng Zhilong carried out the massacre against Naha, which was probably for the purpose of intimidation and intimidation.

    Although everyone knows it, there are still many people who would rather be tricked and betray Li Xiang.

    These people who remain now can be said to be Li Xiang¡¯s die-hard troops.

    But even for such people, they have to think about their families.

    They can risk their lives for Li Xiang, but what about their families?

    Therefore, once there is a good choice, it is impossible for them not to be tempted.

    Especially in the days after Mrs. Wang came back, she made it very clear.

    At the same time, after Mrs. Wang left, those who stayed behind also learned clearly about some policies in the Americas through contacts and inquiries.

    Therefore, many people think that they can send their families to America.  After allocating those fertile lands, you can be a responsible person.

    As long as there is land, their families will not starve to death.

    In this way, they feel relieved.

    However, Li Xiang never said anything, so it was hard for his die-hard brothers to say anything.

    Now that Li Xiang has finally made this decision, they are the happiest people.

    Because once they surrendered to the Song Empire, they became members of the Song Empire.

    Their families can also be sent to America to get the best farmland.

    At the same time, with the support of the Song Empire, does Zheng Zhilong have anything to fear?

    Even if the Song Empire is not as powerful as the Ming Dynasty, it doesn¡¯t matter.We just need to follow the crown prince and go to the Song Empire together.

    After all, if you become his subordinate and follow him to the Song Empire, you can't let them starve to death.

    These people under Li Xiang think very clearly.

    After discussing and reporting with his men, Li Xiang organized his men and set off for Nagasaki with three Ming-style warships.

    He did not bring the nineteen European-style warships that Zhao Hongyu had given him.  After all, if he leaves Amami Island, he must leave the strength to defend Amami Island.

    God knows whether this guy Zheng Zhilong will choose this time to attack him.

    ¡°He had no way of predicting this thing.

    Therefore, all the sophisticated European-style warships were retained.

    He himself took more than 500 men and left Amami Island on three Ming-style battleships.

    ¡°No, they are now near Five Islands.

    At this time, Li Xiang was standing on the bow of the boat, facing the cold sea breeze, and his mind was filled with thoughts.

    He felt that all this was a bit too illusory. A few days ago, this place still belonged to the Japanese, but now the city has changed to a king's flag, and it has changed its owner.

    This made Li Xiang suddenly feel a little unreal in her heart.

    However, he truly knew that all of this was true.  He was not dreaming. After all, the five-star red flags waving in the wind on the observation decks on the five coastlines in the distance were proving everything.

    The Japanese did not have such a flag, and Master Wang also said at the time what the flag of the Song Empire looked like, but he remembered it clearly.

    Unlike this era, the flags of the Ming Dynasty and countries in Southeast Asia were basically either dragons, tigers, bears, leopards, or some wild beasts.

    But the Song Empire was a flag with five yellow stars on a red background.

    Li Xiang didn¡¯t understand what this meant.

    I don¡¯t know if it was out of Zhao Hongyu¡¯s interest, but at the beginning he designated the five-star red flag as the national flag of the country he created.

    Although there is another flag in the Song Empire, it is the red and white hexagon of the Umbrella Company, and there are three crescent moon symbols.  But that is the logo of a commercial company, not representative of the country.

    Therefore, wherever Zhao Hongyu goes, he will wave the five-star red flag.

    Speaking of which, the five-star red flag has been planted in many places now.

    In the three concessions of Lisbon in Europe, Marseille in France, and Egypt close to Arabia, five-star red flags are flying.

    As for the American continent, not to mention, all cities and villages belonging to the Song Empire will have a five-star red flag in the central area.

    Farther away, even eight coastal fortresses in Australia have five-star red flags flying.

    Now, even the five-star red flag has been erected here in Jiuzhou.

    I don¡¯t know if it is in disguise, to satisfy Zhao Hongyu¡¯s dream of the Yanhuang Huaxia.

    ¡°Anyway, in another time and space, the Chinese people¡¯s unfulfilled dream, and what the Chinese have not accomplished in the virtual world, Zhao Hongyu has achieved it in this time and space.

    It can be said that based on the occupied land, the territory of the Song Empire can be said to be the broadest.

    In this era of time and space, no country can compare with it.

    The American continent alone is enough to make people stunned.

    You must know that in this era of time and space, there are no South American countries, and there is no so-called Canada, let alone the United States.

    "Anyway, there is only one owner in the entire North and South America, and that is Zhao Hongyu.

    There is no need to count the concessions in Europe, they are just a springboard.

    ¡° Adding Australia Haha, the territory of the Song Empire is really huge.

    Of course, although Zhao Hongyu owns so much land, his control is still weak.

    After all, he does not have that large population to fill and actually occupy those lands.

    Even here in the Americas, he does not fully own the cities and rural towns, and he does not have serious control over them.

    From this point of view, although the Song Empire developed very quickly, it was not without its weaknesses.

    And population is Zhao Hongyu¡¯s biggest weakness.

    Fortunately, Zhao Hongyu has a cheating device that can help, so the population problem can be solved over time.

    At the same time, for earlier relief and reconciliation,?On this issue, Zhao Hongyu also set his sights on Dongfang.  He planned to immigrate to America from the Ming Dynasty to fill the problem of too few Chinese descendants.

    After all, the people here in the Ming Dynasty were also of Chinese descent.

    Although time and space are different, the bloodline is the same.

    So, there is nothing wrong with this.

    As for Li Xiang, this is part of his immigration plan.

    When Li Xiang entered the Five Islands waters, their ship was immediately discovered.

    Then, about half an hour later, a Japanese-style speedboat rushed towards Li Xiang's three warships.

    On that Japanese-style speedboat, the same five-star red flag was flying (To be continued. Please search Piao Tian Literature, the novel will be better and updated faster!)
