"They call this side tessy."
"They are confident, but they are also vigilant."
"The messenger's voice is sharp. He should be the legendary waiter, but he is very solemn..."
In the palace, the king looked at the prince with some blue and purple on his face and said, "they are here to explore the way, but they have powerful force. Henry, you have been running the sea. Tell me, how do we compare with Daming?"
The prince said, "it's very bad. We can't match. The four ships are very powerful. Their weapons should be iron balls. We need to see what those weapons are like, otherwise we won't be able to surpass them."
The king cut off the topic and said, "they want to move on. There is frank over there. There is war over there. Their arrival will stop the war. This is not good news for us."
"Frank..."
The prince said in a trance, "one of their ships has entered the channel. Father, they will touch more places."
The king was not worried at all. He said, "it's a matter of time before the route is found, so don't worry about my children. More people will find Daming, and they will have more eyes, not friendly."
"I warned you before that friendliness is the most precious quality in the world, but from my position, friendliness is a stupid quality. We shouldn't have this quality."
The prince nodded and said, "their ships are stronger and more suitable for long-distance navigation. Their weapons are too sharp, which makes us fear like gods. Father, we must get one of the two, or we will fall behind forever."
The king took a sip of tea, frowned and said, "it's too much. Those Ming people said to put an appropriate amount and waste!"
He sniffed the tea carefully and exclaimed.
"They don't allow our people to get on board. It's hard..."
The king got up with a teacup and made no secret of his love for tea.
"We are not strong yet."
The king said thoughtfully, "you like to explore. This is a good thing. We need new land. The whole tessi needs new land to feed more and more people. The damn epidemic still hasn't reduced this difficulty. This is God's punishment for people. Go. Well, we will become stronger and stronger."
…..
"We have stayed here for too long, and there is still no news about the ship entering the Strait."
The exotic style of sea and sky makes people feel novel. On the dock, those ships are far away from here. Someone is greedy or afraid to look at these ships.
Of course, Ming people are also the focus of their observation, even including the gestures of Ming people.
"Father in law, we need to move on, or go find them?"
"They should come back!"
Hong Bao looked coldly at those who peeped here and said, "going to sea is the military law. They won't be late. Get ready and we'll start in a few days."
Lisbon was the first stop. During this time, they not only completed the supply and repair, but also completed the exploration of the city.
"Their king is mediocre and not excellent, but the prince's eyes are far-reaching, our family..."
Hong Bao's eyes flashed a murderous opportunity and said, "Xing Hebo said that our family agrees that whoever controls the sea in the future will be the master of the world."
"The prince made great achievements in war. He didn't compete for the throne. Instead, he went to another place and worked hard to find a new place and route to the sea. What's this?"
Hong Baoyin said, "can you move your hand?"
Zhang Wang said eagerly, "father-in-law, why don't you try?"
Hong Bao nodded and said, "don't be afraid. It's nothing to be found. It's a big deal. Our family ordered to destroy the city."
After knowing the troops in the city, Hong Bao was full of confidence. He felt that a thousand households, with so many artillery, could definitely threaten foreign lands.
Zhang Wang whispered, "don't worry, father-in-law. The people here... Are far away."
Hong Bao nodded and Zhang Wang arranged.
As an emissary, the king was very polite to Hong Bao. Every day someone came to ask him what ingredients he needed. Previously, the king sent Hong Bao the same meal.
But Hong Bao couldn't stand the cooking methods here, so he declined.
The sun in early summer made people lazy. The people on the ship rested in shifts and enjoyed a rare peace.
"Grandpa, over there, look over there."
Someone turned around in the bow and shouted.
Hong Bao looked sideways and saw three ships coming slowly.
It's not surprising, but several ships immediately rushed over on the dock like a watchdog.
"Call someone out."
Hong Bao looked at the scene with great interest, looked at the flags hanging on the three ships and said with a smile, "is this the enemy? Ho ho! Let's get ready and watch the fun."
The rest crew and sergeants gathered.
"Leave the dock!"
Someone untied the cable, three warships and two grain ships slowly raised their sails and began to go offshore.
When they found Ming people leaving the dock, someone rushed over and kept shouting.
"Grandpa, someone called us."
Hong Bao didn't even look at the three slowing ships and said, "it's not one country. Let's pay attention. We're full of supplies. The momentum is wrong. Leave immediately and then clean them up."
The officials on the dock shouted in grief, but the ships gradually left.
The three ships did not resist, but negotiated with the ships coming for inspection.
The people on board are staring at Daming's ships with hot eyes.
"Franks, you should be fighting the Canary now, not running to Lisbon to see women!"
An official saw that the sergeants who had drilled out of the cabin were shaking their heads and said sarcastically, "go back, this is Lisbon!"
A frank official said positively, "frank and Daming have a traditional friendship. At the order of his Highness the crown prince, let's say hello to the Daming messenger."
"A group of wild dogs looking for food, their tails are shaking!"
This demand is very legitimate and naturally cannot be intercepted.
So Rhys himself was depressed and sarcastic. Some people even compared the Franks to foxes flattering the lions.
So the three ships came to Ming's ship.
"Let them go."
Reese himself didn't remind anything, so he expected that the Franks couldn't understand Da Ming's words and were directly sunk by that weapon.
"They are as shameless as fools. Frank almost destroyed the country. The Ming people are far away in the East. If there is any friendship, as long as ten such ships come, the Canary people can't get well!"
"Look, look, they are... Eh! Where did they find the interpreter?"
You know, Rhys instinctively found interpreters because their prince was ambitious overseas. He not only focused on shipbuilding and navigation equipment, but also found interpreters in many languages.
But the Franks were too busy to take care of themselves under the attack of Goldfinch. Where did they come from?
"They have a plan!"
Someone immediately reported this to the Lord of the country.
The Franks definitely had a mole here, and they took the boat back to report.
"Frank's envoy has already set out. If it goes well, he should have arrived at Daming by now. Yes, his Royal Highness the prince is full of good feelings for Daming, so he sent us to say hello to Daming's envoy."
An official respectfully said these words to Hong Bao, and then translated them.
Hong Bao was delighted, but said faintly, "Frank... What kind of country is this?"
