Chapter 755 Pearl Harbor

The negotiations with the indigenous people were amicable because of the barely qualified translators.

After staying at sea for a day, the next day, the king of the island sent an envoy.

The two sides sent letters back and forth for a day.

Finally, the advance fleet was welcomed by the island king to the main city of their tribe.

On an island southeast of the island found by the advance fleet, in a small bay, a large number of canoes, large and small, were left and right. A large group of colorful natives on the shore gathered at the small pier on the shore to wait. On the shore in the distance There is also a large earthen city made of mud, stone and wood. It is not very square but the layers overlap.

The fleet also parked near the dock of the bay, surrounded by thousands of people around the bay. Then, amid the exclamations of the natives, Sun Qin tightened his soft armor in his Chinese clothes and took three boats of fully armed crew members to set off in a small boat. Landing at that pier.

The closer the boat got, the more restless the natives on the island became.

It was the bloated female chief in the crowd who was protected by native warriors who kept shouting and yelling, and managed to stabilize the situation.

After landing, the crew of the advance ship attracted the attention of these natives all the time, no matter their weapons or clothing and armor.

Among them, Sun Qin, wearing a gorgeous dress woven with gold thread, is the most eye-catching.

Gorgeous clothes and appearance are the common pursuit of all races and are also a form of social language.

Our Black Flag Qing Dynasty is also a country of etiquette, so when the indigenous female chief saw the gift sent by Sun Qin, she immediately became happy, and the tribe also cheered for the friendly attitude of this powerful foreigner.

The dialogue between the two parties also appeared to be very harmonious.

Sun Qin and his party were invited into the chief's 'palace' under the spotlight. It was decorated with a large number of animal heads and a large number of linen blankets rendered with primitive fuel and woven with unknown patterns, iron and goldware, and looked very fancy. nice.

It's just smaller.

“Nice rug.”

Sun Qin politely complimented her, which made the female chief opposite who was holding a piece of silk burst into laughter. She immediately said greedily that they could trade the carpet, preferably in exchange for the silk.

An iron pan will work too.

"Of course it's no problem, but it's not us. There will be merchants coming in the future, and we can discuss with them how to trade."

"Then you, you beautiful people, come to us and send us good gifts to make friends with the alliance. We will definitely give you gifts in return, but what is your purpose? Good friends, tell us."

Although the female chief was almost blinded by silk and cotton, she still had some sense left.

Know that there is no such thing as a free lunch.

"We are looking for a place for a hundred of my men to live here on the land around you."

As soon as these words came out, the scene became a little colder.

Naturally, land cannot be given away at will.

Even though the female chief knew that the gift in her hand must be extremely precious, at least among their tribe.

Her rough hands caressed the smooth silk in her hands, and the female chief said: "Our land is limited. If you just live with us, it's okay, but if you want a piece of land to live here, we Can’t give it.”

Sun Qin was not surprised either, but the smile on his face became even stronger.

“It doesn’t have to be your land.”

"Ok?"

The several large islands of the Hawaiian Islands did not form a unified tribal government. They were able to unify only because they came into contact with foreign exploration ships or merchant ships and obtained some advanced technologies from them. Only then did they have the opportunity to unify.

In addition to the Kamehameha tribe, there are many tribes scattered on several large islands and many islands in the south.

What Sun Qin has to do is also very simple.

He didn't have much time to oppress the natives on the island. Even if it was smooth sailing before and the current voyage was faster than planned, the plan was for the advance fleet to stay here for at most fifteen days.

And the sooner the better.In these fifteen days, he will occupy a piece of land here, build a stronghold, and leave one cargo ship among the five ships to be stationed at this stronghold.

After the base is stabilized, the cargo ship will return to Shishima Tokyo.

It is to ensure peace.

It also allowed Zhu Youjian to first conduct business with the indigenous people here and control them through various means to prepare for future large-scale colonial operations.

Sun Qin's suggestion made the female chief suddenly enlightened.

At the same time, as the two sides communicated in depth and each understood the forces and strengths behind both sides, especially after seeing Sun Qin personally demonstrate the power of the double-barreled shotgun, the female chief immediately said that it was she and her little son who could become a tributary state of the Qing Empire. The greatest honor of the kingdom.

Even saying that giving up their land is not impossible.

As long as Sun Qin agrees to lend her troops.

Just borrow it for five days.

To this end, the female chief offered all the gold and silver treasures in her palace. In the end, the two sides agreed to borrow troops for seven days and handed over land in a bay north of their main city to the crew of the advance fleet.

Sun Qin originally disagreed.

But after looking at the map and comparing it carefully, I agreed.

Your Majesty said that if you have the chance, it is best to capture this bay. Your Majesty even gave it a name.

It's called Pearl Harbor.

The next seven days.

One hundred black flag soldiers armed with double-barreled shotguns naturally swept across the island where the female chief was located. It only took three days to unify all the tribal forces on the island. Then they took a boat south and captured the four southern islands in a hurry.

Finally, in the eyes of the female chief with regret, the deal was over.

"We are the subjects of the Qing Empire. Can we really not trade this kind of artifact with the great emperor? All the gold and silver are here. I can also offer a hundred of the most beautiful girls when I pay tribute on the ship. "

Sun Qin was really impatient.

A matchlock gun was pulled out from a corner of the fleet.

The equipment of the advance fleet was so good that one of the crew members brought it with them as a souvenir amulet.

"Maybe I can sell this to you, but it depends on His Majesty's will."

After the demonstration, the female chief, or in other words, the Queen of Hawaii recognized by the Central Plains Dynasty with the support of the Qing Dynasty, was very happy.

In her opinion, the two are quite different, and the matchlock gun is more powerful when fired, and smoke explodes, making it a better deterrent.

Of course, in the queen's plan, the Heavenly Soldiers of the Qing Dynasty had already settled in the north of her royal city. Her relationship with the Heavenly Soldiers' envoys was enough to intimidate Xiaoxiao, and there would be no problem in using her power to continue to conquer the southern island.

After that, they have to pay tribute to the superior country of that day.

After seeing Sun Qin off, the female chief slumped down on her bed and took several deep breaths.

The experience that took less than half a month was really amazing.

Fleets, envoys, and heavenly soldiers from overseas China
The longing-for, the Western world that just described it in words made her feel like heaven on earth.
As she thought about it, her expression suddenly turned ferocious.

It turned out that her daughter was back.

"Why are you back? Didn't I tell you to keep the messenger tonight no matter what? Where is your sister!?"

"My sister stayed"
