Sure enough, they knew the voyage to England!

Bacon's heart was still pounding when he returned to Siyi Linguan, and it was just an excuse for him to ask Zou Yuanbiao about it, although Shi Xiaolou did plan to increase his salary, but his salary increase had nothing to do with Shi Xiaolou, the so-called inspection of him was just Shi Xiaolou glanced at him from a distance and arched his hand slightly.

Shi Ye, who was the first to join the prosperity of Fujian and Guanghe in the era of Xiangshan Qianhusuo, didn't care about the work of his timber yard workers, there were countless people in Changsheng who wanted to work in the timber yard, his business involved the mines of Luzon, the pearls of Sulu, the kerosene of Majiagang, the silver of Taxco, the timber of Changsheng and the pirates of Qilinwei, where could he care about such a small lumberjack as Bacon?

Shi Xiaolou returned to Changsheng in order to find his hometown party and companions, discuss the formation of Hexingsheng Company on the east coast, and ask Chen Mu if the imperial court could really give them warships.

And Bacon's request to see Zou Yuanbiao was not to let Zou Yuanbiao give him the idea of getting a job.

He had not had many voyages, but he had made five voyages, and he knew how long it would take to sail back to England from the New World.

What he wanted to make sure was that Zou Yuanbiao, a Ming army Changshengzhi County who had never been to the east of the Mingxi border, did not know how far it was to sail from the Caribbean to England.

Because he heard that in the west of Changsheng Port, there was a place called Xiaowan, where 1,200 soldiers recruited by Changsheng were being trained, and their names were the Ailan Restoration Army, and the leader was Zhu Xiaoen, the king of Ailan, who had lost his fiefdom in the Ming Empire.

There was nothing strange about this list, except that the name Alan was similar to the name of a piece of land he knew.

But curiosity drove him to know by chance that all the people he had access to throughout Changsheng did not know where King Alan's lost fief was.

The aborigines of Asia did not know that there were extenuating circumstances, but neither did the immigrants from the Ming Empire, and even the mouthy people listed to Bacon the title of the king he knew, and there were very few two words.

The immigrants said that this should be the overseas king who was canonized by the emperor, so he would have such a strange title.

And the people who had the privilege of witnessing the honor of the king of Aeran said that the king was born not like the Ming people, but somewhat like the Westerners or Bacon himself.

Even the first-class cavalry Ying Ming didn't know where King Ailan came from, only that he had lost his feudal state, so with the support of the Oriental marshal, he recruited a militia, gave the armor training elite, and boasted that all his combat skills were first-class Ying Ming was almost selected as a cavalry banner at that time.

In the quiet of the night, Bacon, who had lost his roommate, lit an oil lamp, wrote down the clues of this incident sentence by sentence on a piece of paper, and reasoned.

'The army of the Kingdom of Ailan is 1,200 men. ’

It is easy to inquire about this matter, and the number that everyone said is a thousand, which does not seem to be a secret in Changsheng.

'Chen Mu, the commander of the Ming Army, selected the best subordinates to serve as instructors. ’

The Beiyang Flag Army only has three military ranks, A, B and C, and different military ranks of different arms have different salaries and treatments, and the first class is the best, and Ying Ming is often proud of it.

No one knows what their purpose is, only that they are not in the sea. ’

This was Bacon himself deduced, and he wrote down his reasoning behind it: the fleet that ruled the sea with the Ming Empire, if the Aylan Kingdom was in the sea west of the New World, it would not need this thousand well-equipped soldiers to restore the country.

There is only one reason why there is no restoration now, the fleet of the Ming Empire has not yet arrived.

The more Bacon wrote, the more sweaty his forehead became.

Because the most likely place is the Mediterranean, Europe, and where is the most likely kingdom of Ayland within the Mediterranean?

Ireland!

Who is nominally ruled by Ireland today?

His Queen!

In other words, the soldiers trained by the Ming army in a small bay only five miles away from him are likely to attack his country under the leadership of Zhu Xiaoen in the future!

Today, Bacon originally wanted to ask Zou Yuanbiao this question directly, but he didn't dare to ask it when it came to his lips, because he didn't dare to imagine how Zou Yuanbiao would be treated after answering or avoiding this question.

All this was terrible for Francis Bacon.

On paper, a line was drawn between Ireland and the Ming Empire by Bacon, a line was also drawn between Ireland and Zhu Xiaoen, and a line was drawn between them and Chen Mu.

But even after drawing many lines, Bacon still struggled to understand how they were connected.

The Ming army never took Europe!

"Is it because, Spain?"

According to Bacon's understanding, although the Ming and Spain negotiated peace and maintained a seemingly peaceful peace, the Ming and Spain had been hostile for the past few years, for example, when Drake first brought back to England the news of the Ming landing in the New World, the Ming and Spain were in the early stages of the war.

Where is it said that harmony is really peace? Bacon thought they were just eating calmly with chopsticks on the table, and under the table they were all kicking each other with their boot-wearing feet.

How could the Ming be naïve enough to be willing to help Spain?

England and Spain have a long history of disputes, and the money that England makes from Spain is a small thing.

Fei Lao Er's ex-wife is Elizabeth's sister Queen Bloody Mary of England, so he is the king of England, and after Bloody Mary's death, Fei Lao Er's proposal to Elizabeth was rejected.

The French Wars of Religion, Spain supported Catholicism, England supported Protestantism, and everyone fought inextricably in the land of Hum Laosan.

The Netherlands became independent, and the French Protestants and England supported the Netherlands and continued to open a film with Spain.

There was no way, geographically they had to fight, and if France was controlled by Protestantism, Elizabeth would border Spain on land, which would be unfavorable to Fei Laoer; And once the Spanish yellowcoats gained a foothold in the Netherlands, England, a hundred nautical miles away, would be blockaded by the Spanish fleet at any time.

But why did the Ming army wade through this troubled water?

Joining the Kingdom of Elland is Ireland, so what good is it for the Ming Dynasty to support this war?

Bacon was puzzled - England had not yet fully occupied Ireland, but it was almost over.

As the enclosure brought more and more considerable profits, the nobles' thirst for land became stronger and stronger, and soon the nobles of Northern Ireland would try to provoke another war and destroy the tribes one by one.

The English nobles want to raise sheep there, so what does the Ming army want to do there? Is it also sheep farming?

With such a large area in the New World, isn't it enough for them to raise sheep?

Bacon didn't know if his guess was correct, but he missed Drake immensely now, and if Drake was here, he might be able to bring him some reasonable answers.

But now he was the only one, and with a not-so-accurate conjecture, he fell into a deep sleep.

Before going to bed, Bacon thought that he must find a way to send the news back to England!
