Two to three years is also the goal that Liu Hongjian set for himself and Daming, and he needs at least two years to deal with the enemies of Nanyang.

The latest news brought by Jinyiwei, William II, Prince of Orange and Earl of Nassau, the Dutch consul, was furious after learning of the Nanyang War, and vowed to make the Ming pay the price.

The Dutch East India Company paid huge taxes to the government every year, and the two governors died at the hands of the Ming Beiyang sailors, which brought shame to the shareholders of the Dutch East India Company and the Dutch subjects.

The Dutch considered themselves invincible ever since they defeated the armada of Francis the Younger, and most of the members of parliament and even the common people were shareholders of the East India Company.

This unprecedentedly large and wealthy multinational company is in fact closely connected with the Dutch rulers, parliamentarians and ordinary people, and the death of the two governors has stirred up the Dutch people, and a war may not be far off.

The next day, Liu Hong gradually took Aragon to visit the Shahe camp of the Praetorian Guard.

Since Liu Hongjian did not inform Li Huaizhong in advance, when the group arrived at the camp, the soldiers were still conducting daily routine training, and the neat queues, sophisticated swords, and muskets dazzled Aragorn and his subordinates.

In particular, the cavalry of the Ming Dynasty made Aragorn's eyes even hotter, because Melica had no horses, not even any livestock to ride, and most of their people did not die from firearms, but from the swords of the cavalry, and the Incas were even more eager for horses than for firearms.

"You guys, show the king's guests the power of the grenade!" Liu Hong gradually beckoned to the thrower who was training.

"Yes, Lord Wang, use training bullets or ......," the Baihu official asked.

"Nonsense, of course with real guys!" Liu Hong gradually said bluntly.

"Great! Lord, you wait~! "The hundred household officials are also very excited to get the exact order, and the subordinates under him have not touched the real guy for more than half a month, and it is exciting to train where there is a real guy with an iron pimple every day.

Shao leaned, two soldiers brought a box of grenades, and the hundred household officials personally took the lead in throwing the grenades far away into the sand pit in the camp.

Boom-boom-boom, several dull loud noises resounded through the camp, and the sand and stones in the bunker flew far away, and Aragorn and his men were stunned.

Due to the distance between Murlica and Europa, the latest throwing firearms in the country were not widely equipped among the Franc soldiers in the Inca, and Aragon had never seen such a miraculous firearm.

Firearms such as grenades were more suitable for mountain warfare than muskets with complex loads, and Aragorn and his men knew how useful they were, and their eyes instantly lit up.

"If the contract goes well, the Ming court will give aid to the Incas, including but not limited to muskets, artillery and grenades." Liu Hong said calmly.

And unlike the Chahar Khanate, this aid was free, and it was the first investment of the Ming in Merica.

Liu Hongjian is not worried that the firearm technology will be stolen by the Incas, the primer technology has broken through, and the Ming Dynasty's firearms are about to usher in a new round of innovation.

As for the Franco-Rang machine man and the Dutchman Liu Hongji, who were also in Merica, they were not afraid, the grenade had been learned and gradually equipped by the Europeans, and the musket technology and steel-making technology of the Ming Dynasty were also a matter of time.

If you want to maintain the leading position of a great power, there is one way to keep technology secret, and another is to speed up scientific research, and Liu Hongjian believes that the latter is more important.

As long as the craftsmen of the Ming Dynasty continue to keep the technology updated and iterative, and the Ordnance Institute continues to develop more sophisticated weapons and equipment, the army of the Ming Dynasty will always be proud of the world.

"In addition, Xishan Shanghe will support your people with 100,000 stone of rice and grain every year in the name of the company." Liu Hong gradually thought for a while.

In the name of the Xishan Merchants, it was just a temporary idea, if there was trade with the Meligas in the future, how could there be less Xishan Merchants, this favor was not so much a burden as an investment.

"On behalf of the Incas, Aragon has thanked the Ming prince for his grace, and we will remember this kindness!" After figuring out how much 100,000 stones were, Aragorn and his people gradually bowed to Liu Hong.

When Atahualpa was first killed by the Francis, there were more than 100,000 people in the Inca royal family and its tribesmen, but after a hundred years of encirclement and warfare, only more than 10,000 remained.

The declining royal clan was forced to retreat into the Amazon jungle and live by hunting.

The harsher living conditions have greatly reduced the life span of the tribal warriors, and now there are only more than 3,000 people in the whole clan, and even fewer warriors can go to the battlefield, and 100,000 stone of food is enough for them for a long time.

"Aragorn, what are you talking about?" Liu Hong gradually saw an Inca man muttering something to Aragorn, Aragorn frowned and reprimanded the next few sentences, and asked suspiciously.

"No, Da Ming has already helped us a lot, we can't make any more requests." Aragorn glared at the subordinate and said apologetically.

"Hehe, let's talk about it, within his ability, this king hopes that Melica will become the world of the yellow race." Liu Hongjian didn't care whether Aragorn understood or not, and teased.

"They hope that the Ming will give their people some horses......" Aragorn said embarrassedly.

"It's a trivial matter, it's just that the terrain where your tribe is located is not suitable for Mongolian military horses, so this king will find a way to find you a batch of Dian horses!"

Although the Yunnan horse is a bantam horse, it has stable endurance and is especially suitable for mountain roads and dangerous roads, and is the most important means of transportation on the ancient tea horse road.

There were only a thousand soldiers in the whole Inca royal tribe, and three hundred Dian horses were enough, which was just a gesture for the Ming Dynasty.

"The king of Ming Japan will go to ask His Majesty the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty to discuss this matter, if things go well, maybe the people of the Ministry of Rites will look for you in the afternoon, you should be ready to seal the letter." On the way back, Liu Hong gradually said to Aragon.

In fact, in foreign affairs, Liu Hongjian almost grasped it, Zhu Cihong rarely interfered at all, and Liu Honggradually and the courtiers also had a minimum tacit understanding, unless there was a major deviation in the national policy, Liu Hongjian rarely asked about the affairs of the DPRK and China.

However, what Liu Hong gradually did not expect was that Zhu Cihong actually had a negative opinion on this matter.

"Liu Qing, since Melica has been occupied by the Europas, why should we help the weak royal tribes, wouldn't it be better to send troops to occupy that land directly?"

Zhu Cihong had a burning desire to expand the territory, and he did not understand why Liu Hongjian was so aggressive.

"Your Majesty, let me ask you, if you send troops to Molica, can you order the Indians of the entire continent to be killed?"

He didn't talk too much to Zhu Cihong about the thousand-year-old reputation of the Chinese nation, but said bluntly.

"This ......" Zhu Cihong was silent.

He himself was impregnated by Confucianism, and the extermination of the whole clan has never been liked by the king of Shoucheng, after all, this is to be written into the history books, and there is no emperor in the past dynasties who does not care about his reputation.

"If we can't destroy a civilization, the only thing we can do is to cooperate with it to achieve a win-win situation, Your Majesty, it's good for both sides."

When a tribe has a civilization, it forms a nation, and unless it has a cultural identity, sooner or later it will rise up in oppression, and it is better to deal with it mildly than to fall into endless counterinsurgency.

The reason why Europa was divided into so many small countries in the two world wars was because of the national problem, and the reason why China was able to achieve the ultimate unification was because of the cultural identity of Confucianism.

Moreover, with today's scientific and technological conditions and communication level, the Ming Dynasty simply does not have the ability to dominate the territory on the other side of the Pacific Ocean for a long time, which is too far away.

Nanyang is almost the limit of the Ming Dynasty, since division is a matter of time, why bother to wade into the troubled waters of colonization.

"Okay, according to Liu Qing's wishes, I will give an order to the Ministry of Rites after I am released." Zhu Cihong thought about it for a while, and finally compromised.

"I heard that the Netherlands intends to attack my Daming, Liu Qing, can you be sure to deal with it?" After all, Merica was too far away from the Ming Dynasty, and Zhu Cihong was more worried about the inevitable war in the near future.
