Nanming: I can build wonders

Chapter 373 Layout of the West Coast of America (please subscribe!)

When the Ming army placed a bunch of rewards in front of the indigenous leader, as well as a drafted Mingtan agreement, the eyes of the indigenous people lit up.

After some cordial communication at the sign language level, the indigenous leader finally found it difficult to resist the temptation of the sugar-coated bullets of Ming imperialism, and he didn't know what the agreement was for.

So, in a daze, he pressed his fingerprints on the agreement, and happily got off the battleship with the reward, and went back to show off the reward he got from the "God" to the clansmen.

In this way, the Polynesian natives in Honolulu sold the entire Honolulu Islands to Daming.

The Mingtan agreement in black and white has been signed, so they can't help but deny it!
It doesn't matter if you don't admit it, it's a big deal to use force!

According to the spirit of the contract, when the time comes to use force, Da Ming will also represent the party of justice.

The most important thing is that the natives don't even have much iron, and the productivity gap between the two sides is so huge that they can't beat these heavily armed Ming troops.

There is a saying, if you throw a hundred National Defense Force soldiers on the island, you can easily conquer them as long as you have enough ammunition.

In short, it is a certainty that the Honolulu Islands will become the territory of Ming Dynasty, and there will be no changes.

Originally, in 1778, Westerners discovered the Hawaiian Islands.

Even though they had prepared for the worst, the rest went relatively smoothly. These natives were very obedient and did not intend to disobey at all.

After continuous communication between the two sides, the language gradually became fluent.

Xiao Wu left [-] Ming soldiers on the island. At this time, the aborigines in the Honolulu archipelago were not unified. The aborigine leader he recruited was equivalent to the chieftain used to manage the aboriginals in order to unify the islands.

With the combat power of these [-] Ming soldiers, it is enough to sweep the entire Honolulu Islands.

Xiao Wu understands the significance of this archipelago to Ming Dynasty. If it is really like what is marked on the sea chart, there are only a few islands located in the middle of this vast sea, and this place will definitely become an important midway supply. point.

Moreover, the archipelago is very beautiful, and the climate is very comfortable and pleasant. There are no mosquitoes, flies, cockroaches, fleas on the islands, and there are no snakes and reptiles. It is like a paradise. Such a good place, Da Ming must occupy it.

Then Xiao Wu led the supply fleet and started sailing to the west coast of America. He was going to find the "Jinshan Port" marked on the sea chart, which is the future San Francisco.

This chart was actually drawn by Zhu Kezang himself according to the system map. What about Hawaii, he directly wrote Honolulu.

What San Francisco is directly named "Gold Mountain Port".

Before Xiao Wu set off, he was surprised to find that there were actually sandalwood trees on the mountain in Honolulu!

Sandalwood is a good thing. Its wood is very fragrant, and it is often used as materials for high-end utensils, inlays, carvings, etc. Daming has another good raw material!
Now, when heading towards Jinshan Port, Xiao Wu was thinking in his heart, is there really Jinshan in Jinshan Port?

If there is, Daming will get rich again!
Xiao Wu is clear about the emperor's supernatural powers, because he heard that the emperor can know the location of the gold mines in Dongying Duhufu without leaving home, which brought a lot of gold income to Daming.

It's like turning a stone into gold!

After nearly a month of sailing, Xiao Wu finally found San Francisco of the later generations according to the sea chart. After entering the port, the entire fleet began to set up camp here, and started exploring in all directions.

With this port as the center, the fleet explored and mapped the north and south coastlines.

Xiao Wu was a little disappointed by the results of the investigation, they didn't find any gold mines, but the good news is that he saw a treasure land with fertile soil thousands of miles away.

San Francisco naturally has gold mines, but Zhu Kezang just didn't mark them out, because he was afraid of leaking the news, and because of the coveting of Western colonists in the Americas.

The Ming forces who first arrived in America are still too weak, so they will develop in a low-key manner first, and then develop them well when they become stronger.

Inside Jinshan Port is a large bay, which is also connected to several large rivers. The upper reaches of these rivers are a central valley.

The climate here is also relatively mild, although there are some extreme climates, but the climate is moderate in most areas.

What does it mean to have a mild climate, enough water, and a flat valley?
This means that as long as a water conservancy irrigation system is built here, it can be turned into a rich land. Of course, the problem now is that there is no one.

It is tens of thousands of kilometers away from the mainland, and it will take at least four months to go back and forth. If there are some unfavorable weather and other factors on the road, it may take more than five months to go back and forth, which is almost half a year. The journey can be said to be quite long. long.

If there is no Honolulu Islands in the middle as a supply point, it will be very difficult for Ming to migrate to the Americas.

Now that Ming Dynasty is continuing to immigrate to Southeast Asia and Australia, it is clear that the main force of immigration will be placed on the west coast of America for a while.

But when the Ming Dynasty unified the north, large-scale immigration to the Americas would not be far away, Xiao Wu and his fleet were the vanguard.

If it goes well, America should be renamed Mingzhou in the future!

After the fleet of more than 2000 soldiers landed in Jinshan Bay, they immediately started farming and building forts here to form a town stronghold that could support immigration activities.

This stronghold is very safe. The Spaniards have not yet expanded to North America, and the Indians cannot threaten these heavily armed soldiers.

As long as the bastion is built, it will be very difficult for the Spaniards to attack here.

To take down the bastion of Ming Dynasty, Spain needs several times more troops, and the weapons are not as advanced as that of the Ming army, so it is basically impossible to take it down, unless the Spaniards go crazy and don't care about all costs.

For the Indians here, the basic policy is to communicate with them.

When the expansion of immigration is hindered, the Indian tribes who are willing to submit will be integrated, and those who are unwilling to integrate will be expelled by force, and massacres are prohibited in principle.

After all, according to the Internet, the original Native American Indians are descendants of ancient Chinese Yin Shang.

Their ancestors fled across the ocean to America after Zhou destroyed the Shang Dynasty. Because they did not forget their homeland, they would greet each other "Is Yindi safe?" when they met, hence the name "Yindians".

Although, this is an untenable conjecture.

In fact, as long as you have studied a little bit of history, you will know that "indian" actually refers to Indians.

When the Ottoman Turks blocked the Eurasian trade route, Columbus was ordered to search westward for a commercial route to Asia.

There is ample evidence that the navigators at that time knew very well that the earth was spherical and that Asia could be reached in the west.

But in the end, what Columbus arrived was not the planned India, but a "new" continent.

The arrogant Spaniards referred to the deer as a horse, and called the aborigines on this continent Indians, that is, Indians.

Therefore, India has nothing to do with "Yin Di'an".

But it is not groundless to say that Indians are related to East Asians.
