At the Tongzhou Wharf, looking at the slowly departing battleship, King Wei had a complicated expression. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

"Uncle Three Emperors, Xiao Ming is really getting more and more incomprehensible to us." Xiao Qi appeared behind King Wei.

He came to Tongzhou with the King of Wei, but did not meet Xiao Ming, but secretly observed Xiao Ming's fleet.

"What do you say Xiao Ming is leading such a large fleet for?" King Wei said puzzled.

Xiao Qi pondered for a while and said: "I sent someone to observe, this time Xiao Ming's fleet carried more than 10,000 soldiers, all of these soldiers carried the muskets that Xiao Ming said, such a large-scale army must go to sea for conquest, this Great Chongqing Country He naturally did not dare to move, then he had only one destination, that is, Ryukyu." ā€

"Ryukyu, you mean that Xiao Ming is going to war with the Dutch." King Wei exclaimed.

"There is this possibility, not to mention the powerful fleet comparable to the Dutch, plus 10,000 musketeers, and only the Dutch are worthy of being his opponents." Xiao Qi said confidently.

King Wei was overjoyed, "Hehe, this is simply great, if Xiao Ming and King Wei fight, we can reap the benefits of the fishermen, maybe this maritime trade can be reopened." ā€

"Uncle Sanhuang is too happy too early, if Xiao Ming defeats the Dutch, Xiao Ming will have the final say on this sea, will he let us engage in maritime trade so easily?"

King Wei pondered for a while and said: "It's much better than in the hands of the Dutch, Xiao Ming is at least a royal family, at least he can talk about it in the court, and now he has established a supply point in Tongzhou, which also depends on this king, all in all, he is much stronger than the Dutch." ā€

Xiao Qi nodded, he was comforted in his heart, the current King of Wei seemed to have buried the idea of rebellion deep in his heart, after all, Xiao Ming's day, he always had some scruples.

While he was talking, the figure of the Qingzhou battleship disappeared on the horizon.

On the deck of the King of Qi, Xiao Ming was reclining on an old chair, basking in the sun and blowing the sea breeze.

At the Tongzhou wharf, they replenished a large amount of fresh water, vegetables, grain, daily necessities and other supplies, and for him, this meeting with the King of Wei was basically a success.

As for the next supply point, Ningzhou, he is also full of confidence, after all, he is now doing business with the King of Chu, and the King of Chu does not dare to give in.

Just as he had guessed, they arrived in Ningzhou two days later, where they were well restocked, and the king of Chu ordered the local officials to cooperate with Xiao Ming's fleet to supply them, and at the same time continue to provide them with supplies in the future.

After Ningzhou, the fleet continued southward, and after seven days they reached the city of Geranza.

"Your Highness, there is the city of Geranza in front of you." Rod said excitedly.

Xiao Ming nodded, in the golden sunlight, the city of Relan was as dazzling as a pearl on the sea, through the telescope, he saw a typical European style building, red tiles and white walls, like a fairyland.

Just when Rhodes was excited, a Dutch warship appeared in Xiao Ming's telescope, and Xiao Ming said: "Don't be happy yet, you better explain to your fleet that we are not enemies." ā€

Only then did Rhodes react, and immediately picked up the flag and waved the flag to the Dutch fleet, and after a while, the flag also came from the Dutch battleship, and Rhodes said at this time: "Dear Highness, now your fleet can dock in the port with peace of mind." ā€

Xiao Ming observed the situation in the port, he called Yue Yun and said, "Enter the port, but stay vigilant." ā€

Yue Yun understood, and immediately asked the flag speaker to play the flag, while he led the Qi King into the dock slowly.

At this time, Lu Fei and Luo Xin also came over, and they asked the soldiers to blow the assembly horn, and the soldiers of the Qingzhou Army immediately walked onto the deck from the cabin and lined up neatly.

Let the cautious driving, the fleet stopped in the port safely, and when more than 10,000 Qingzhou soldiers all disembarked, Xiao Ming breathed a sigh of relief this time, it seems that this time the Dutch are really in crisis.

"Hello, Your Royal Highness the Venerable King of Qi." Claire appeared on the dock for the first time, and the first sentence he used in broken Dayu Chinese, and then communicated with him in Dutch, translated by Rhodes.

"Thank you for coming, Your Highness King Qi, your arrival proves that you are a qualified ally, and perhaps from today onwards, we will be able to establish a firm friendship." Claire was excited.

These soldiers from Qingzhou were well-equipped and not inferior in numbers to the Japanese Invaders, which made him very confident in this war.

"No thanks, as the Count said, we are allies on the sea, and there will be more opportunities for cooperation in the future." Xiao Ming said with a smile.

Claire became more and more happy, he pointed to the city of Geranza and said, "Your Highness, this is the city of Geranza, I will show you around here, you will spend a beautiful night here tonight." ā€

Lu Fei and Luo Xin looked at the small island surrounded by the sea with surprise in their eyes, but they were quickly attracted by the Dutch soldiers.

"Luo Xin, have you seen it, this soldier's military uniform looks very good, especially the leather boots he wears, when can we also wear leather shoes, I always feel that wearing this military uniform and cloth shoes are a little mismatched." Lu Fei said.

Luo Xin's attention had long been attracted by the artillery on the city of Geranza, and when he saw that there were two field guns at the gate of the city, his eyes were even straighter, and he said: "It doesn't matter if the leather boots or cloth shoes are there, the equipment of the Dutch is not bad, and it looks comparable to our Qingzhou army, but I don't know how to use these weapons?" ā€

"It's not easy, this time we are helping them, it's always okay to use their weapons, and when the time comes, I shouldn't ask His Highness to mention it." Lu Fei said.

When the two were talking, Xiao Ming and Claire had already entered the city, and they immediately followed.

At the same time, the Qingzhou army also entered all parts of the city, and the small city of the city became crowded.

When they arrived at the Governor's Office, Claire took Xiao Ming to the window, opposite the Michira Fortress, which could easily be seen from the tallest building in the city of Geranza.

"Your Royal Highness, the pirates of the Wa Kingdom have been reinforcing the fortress during this time, and now there are about 10,000 pirates in the city, and I believe that these pirates were instructed by Yamada Nobunaga to occupy the main island of the Ryukyus, after all, this place is very close to the Wa Kingdom, and once they take this place, they will control the route." Claire looked solemn.

Xiao Ming raised his binoculars and looked at it, it was no secret that the expansion and aggression plans of the Japanese invaders were no longer a secret, and Xiao Ming was very interested in any action that caused trouble to the Japanese state, and he asked, "What is your attack plan?" ā€
