Chapter 547: Looking for the Leading Party
Meng Qi and Yang Aguo walked around and saw that the Indians below had finished reciting the scriptures and started eating meat. The two of them returned to the place where they were dining. A cart was used as a dining table, with some bacon and pickled vegetables on it. ▲∴▲∴, Wen Tianxiang and Jiudeng were eating with a sad face. They didn't know what meat they were eating. The Great Monk Yongxin chewed it deliciously. The Great Monk was not picky about food, so he had to eat whatever he wanted.
Mengqi sat down on a small stool, grabbed a piece of meat, and ate it while saying, "It's good to wait until the Maya (they called Mexico Maya). The Mayans can farm and build houses. With them, our Jinshan will get better. Then we won't go back to Jinshan City, and we will build a new city in the south of the Tongwa Bay (where San Diego was later) to the Maya. The navy has inspected it. The harbor there is no worse than the Jinshan Peninsula, and it is the most suitable for building a naval military port. Moreover, the climate there is also warm and the land is fertile, which is a good place to farm. At that time, we will catch tens of thousands of slaves from Maya and ask them to help us farm, build cities, and build houses... There is also the Jinshan Eight Banners to help us fight. Even if the situation in Mingzhou is opened, we can put the boat back and recruit more people to Mingzhou!"
This plan is different from what Chen Dexing planned earlier. Chen Dexing wanted Zhou Xiaoqi to build a stronghold on the Jinshan Peninsula, exchange a ship of gold and silver with the Indians, and then return to East Asia. He did not expect that they could toss out tens of thousands of Indian Eight Banners soldiers, and to conquer the Maya, and also planned to use Mayan slaves to build cities and reclaim farmland, but Zhou Xiaoqi and Mengqi did have such authority!
Moreover, the benefits of doing this are also very obvious. According to this method, colonists from East Asia can eat, drink and live in as soon as they set foot on the Mingzhou continent, and they do not have to fight against the wild world physically and mentally. The probability of survival has increased by many times. In history, a considerable number of European colonists who arrived in the Americas earlier starved to death!
However, Wen Tianxiang, Jiudeng Monk, Yongxin and the other three couldn't help frowning as they heard the words. What was this plan? Catch tens of thousands of Mayan slaves, and then let them farm, build cities, and build houses... It doesn't seem like a benevolent and righteous teacher does! Can the natives of Mingzhou believe in this way? Can the Mingzhou continent be peaceful?
Meng Qi said to himself: "At most one and a half years, our investigation will continue to begin. Wen Zhuangyuan, two masters, where do you want to go then?"
Because of the Eight Indian Banners as thugs, the safety of the Jinshan Colonial was already guaranteed, so there was no need to leave a ship for the sake of the situation. Therefore, the four expedition ships would be divided into two teams, one team would continue to explore the coastline of the Mingzhou continent south, and one team would return to the east with the stolen gold and silver treasures.
"I want to go to India to preach the Dharma!" Master Yongxin ate so much that his mouth was filled with oil. But he did not forget the Dharma.
"I want to go to India, too." Monk Jiudeng is also eating meat. If these staple foods in the Jinshan colony are not eaten, they will starve to death. "If Buddhism is still destined to India, I should do my best to promote it. If I don't have the chance, I will not force it."
This is a monk. He does not force anything, everything depends on the law of fate.
Wen Tianxiang sighed softly, saying, "I originally wanted to return home earlier, but now I am writing a travel note. I just want to record all the scenery and humanities of all countries in the world... I only remember what I saw with my own eyes and do not write the hearsays. So I'd better go to Tianzhu. If I could go to Flynn after traveling to Tianzhu, it would be even better."
Meng Qi smiled and said, "This is easy to deal with. On the way to Tianzhu, you have to pass through the old land of Dashi Country. The northeast of Dashi is Flynn. At that time, you will send a team of Jinshan Eight Banners soldiers to protect the top scholar and go to Flynn for a trip."
Wen Tianxiang nodded with a smile. He didn't know because of this decision. Wen Tianxiang was going to use another way to keep his name in history. He will be the first person in history to complete a global trip. His travel notes will become one of the best-selling books in the world in the future, inspiring generations of orientals to go out of the continent where they grew up and explore the entire world...
...
The sea is undulating and the sea breeze is gentle. Perhaps the storm season has passed, and the huge little Luzon Bay is calm as if it is a West Lake in Lin'an City.
On the beach on the south bank of Little Luzon Bay, a tall man in white costume was walking by the beach with his hands behind his back. Behind him were three women in the same costume, and a middle-aged man in a red battle jacket. On one side of the beach was the town that had just been burned, which was Little Luzon City! When Pu Shougen and Ma Shoushan's troops evacuated there, they set fire and completely burned the homes of thousands of Han immigrants. The Han people living there were either killed or hid in the nearby forest. Now people have returned one after another, gathered near the coast, staring at the huge fleet anchored on the sea.
Because the pier in Little Luzon was also burned, the fleet's landing operation became very difficult. They could only use small boats to transport soldiers and supplies to land on the beach. Only one day and one night, less than two thousand people landed, and found a short flat ground by the beach to set up camp.
Chen Dexing, Mo Yingniang, Juesin, Yang Po'er and Zhao Yuyu also got ashore, and they had nothing serious about it. They just walked around the shore and took a look.
The tall man in Taoist clothes was Chen Dexing, and the four people around him were Mo Yingniang, Juexin, Yang Po'er and Zhao Yuyu.
He walked slowly by the beach, lowered his head and backed his hands and thoughtfully. The sea water splashed his Taoist robe, and he looked unaware of it. Occasionally, he would pick up a shell and throw it into the distance, staring blankly at the splash of the shells.
Zhao Yuyu approached him and whispered: "The two thieves of Ming King, Pu Shougen and Ma Shoushan have already run to the Three Buddhas. We might as well chase them as soon as possible and catch them off guard!"
Chen Dexing smiled and said, "What's the hurry? Pu Shougeng and Ma Shoushan are determined to leave, then India has arrived. However, the Lone King still reluctant to part with the prosperity of the East, otherwise he wouldn't have stayed in Luzon Island for so long."
His guess was only half correct. Pu Shougeng and Ma Shoushan were indeed not in a hurry to go to the West, but they were not nostalgic for the prosperity of the East, but they had little money. They originally planned to plunder Quanzhou and get a vote to leave. However, they made wedding dresses for Tiandaoism and escaped in a panic. They didn't even have time to take away all their own savings. After arriving in Luzon Island, the two thieves found that their property, including ships, were only a few million chunks left. Although it was not too much, considering that the family members they brought with them had as many as 10,000 people, the expenses for food, clothing, housing and transportation were definitely not a small amount. So they did not dare to go west rashly, but instead focused on the business route from Malujia to Tianzhu.
However, Zhao Yuyu didn't know what Pu Shougeng and Ma Shoushan were thinking, and just said angrily: "No matter where the two thieves go, a certain family will chase after him!"
Chen Dexing looked at the surrounding mountains and seas and said lightly: "Yes, you see, the mountains and seas are magnificent, the land is fertile, the products are rich, and there is a good harbor to connect with all directions. But it is a good family business. Of course, you have to avenge this, but you must not forget to start a business... If you don't have the time to take care of this matter, you must choose a good minister to host the foundation of Luzon."
"I know this in my mind," said Zhao and Yu, "I plan to make Chen Gangzhong the Prime Minister of Luzon."
Chen Gangzhong is Chen Zilong, a Tai student. Behind him is the Chen family of Xinghua, and he is also a famous scholar in Fujian. He can rely on his clan, village party, and classmates to build a military and political group. In contrast, the southern Zhao clan of the Zhao clan has withered due to the Quanzhou Rebellion. Now Zhao and Yu are determined to take revenge and entrust all major events to Chen Zilong. In the future, there will inevitably be a dispute between Chen and Zhao...
However, this matter had nothing to do with Chen Dexing. He just smiled heavily and nodded gently: "You have made arrangements, and let the army rest for a while, and build a city in Little Luzon, and wait for the envoy of the Lone King to send troops after the Three Buddhas come back!"
"The King's Envoy?" Zhao Yuyu was stunned. He didn't know when Chen Dexing sent an envoy.
Chen Dexing turned around and waved to Juexin, who had already become a Taoist nun, "Juexin."
"Disciple is here."
"Do you still know how to be a nun?"
"Be a nun?" Jueshin was stunned and nodded, "Of course I know."
Of course she would not forget this. Her father was a monk and her mother was a nun. Her brothers and sisters were either monks or nuns, and the whole family of monks and nuns was a monk.
"Then bring your people, change into the monk's robe, and take the Lone King's handbook to the monument."
"What mission does Master have to entrust him?" Juexin asked. She was a senior Japanese female monk and was not unfamiliar with "diplomacy". In Japan, monks have always been the protagonists on the "diplomacy" stage.
"There are two open missions," Chen Dexing turned around, looked at the huge fleet on the sea, and said lightly, "First, ask the Three Buddhas Qi Kingdom to kill Pu Shougeng and Ma Shoushan tribes, and send their heads to Luzon Island; Second, tell the Three Buddhas Qi people that although the Lonely King established the way of heaven, it did not destroy the Buddha. If the Three Buddhas Qi King intends to promote Buddhism again in India, the Lonely King can send troops to help and participate in the grand event."
Chen Dexing founded the Tiandaoism mainly to fight against several Monotheistic religions with strong combat power and cohesion, and did not want to destroy Buddhism that fought against the Five Slags. Moreover, Buddhism has a huge power in the Southern Fan, and it is not something that can be destroyed by destruction. For Buddhists, they have to win over when they should be attracted, and they have to comfort them when they should be comforted.
Moreover, the Buddhists of the Three Buddhas also hold the key to the gate of the Three Buddhas and Qi, and are actually Indians who believe in Buddhism.
"The undisclosed mission..." Juexin said tentatively.
