Chapter 274
In addition to building Manhattan, Ma Tiezhu and Zhou Yun also need to build military bases and coal yards here, especially coal, which are all provided by transport ships now, which is a waste.
This thing is easy to deal with. The northeast of the beautiful country in later generations was originally a coal-iron industrial belt. The development here is also due to the well-connected water transportation of the Great Lakes and the rich coal-iron ore resources.
Go out from Manhattan and go west along the river for one or two hundred kilometers, and there is a large coal mine.
Ma Tiezhu and his two men had already taken the mineral distribution map and directly followed the map to find a large coal mine.
Of course, this kind of thing is to catch laborers, and the Jihu Army is responsible for supervising the worker.
The 100,000-200,000-200,000-200,000-200,000-2000-2000-2000-2000-2000-2000-2000-2000-2000-2000-2000-2000-2000-2000-2000-2000-2000-
They made full preparations and brought all the machinery and equipment to build this place into a complete logistics base.
Ma Tiezhu, a mixed man, couldn't stand this kind of work of building a farmland, so he came to Zhou Yun: "Why don't you take the Xinfadi Army here, I'll go and get a chance first?"
Zhou Yun had no choice but to divide half of his warships and half of the air transport ships, and asked him to take his people to the UK to try the depth first.
Ma Tiezhu was so happy that he took the navy for the first time, which satisfied his bad fun of making random things.
"Beat, beat me hard, and it all sank and knocked down!"
He didn't know how to command the fleet, so he could only jump into the commander's tower and make noise.
The deputy commander sent by Zhou Yun to be responsible for the fleet could only roll his eyes helplessly while commanding the fleet and launching a devastating blow to all the ships encountered on the road.
At this time, there were not many transatlantic ships, but there were also quite a few. Ma Tiezhu was addicted to it along the way.
According to the map's guidance, the first stop of the horse iron pillar is Plymouth.
This is the British shipbuilding center and naval base.
Although it seems to be a tight defense in the eyes of the British, under the bombardment of weapons that surpassed the times for four hundred years, it is still as fragile as a fence on the vegetable field, and it can be broken with one stab.
"Take all the craftsmen away, all the factories and woods burn, and all the things that can be taken away!"
Ma Tiezhu ordered, and after thinking for a long time, he remembered another one: "Search all the paper with words and pictures."
Plymouth was a small town with tens of thousands of people at this time. Facing the nearly 100,000 troops of tigers like wolves and tigers, it was not enough for them to get stuck in their teeth.
"The officers and soldiers of the military police and the special division are responsible for supervision. The girls here are pretty white in their skin, so don't make mistakes."
Ma Tiezhu immediately grasped the point. The natives on African Black Pie and Donghuazhou were all too rough, and the soldiers of the Qihu Army had high vision and basically did not mess around.
Now I am on board the boat from Panama, and I have been fighting on the sea and on the island. I have never seen a female monkey before. Now I see so many white-skinned girls, if anyone makes a mistake, it would be a bit unfavorable.
"Tell them to pick out the virgin first, and the bachelor wants his wife to apply for it himself. Other women can apply to take it back to be a little wife."
Li Bin's army relied on this welfare system to attract countless bachelors to join. As long as they went to the battlefield twice, they could basically get a wife. It would be fine if they had a good military achievements.
Anyway, the young woman she stolen was basically digested by herself. The older ones were placed on the warship to help with laundry and cooking, or simply sent to the labor camp to work.
Li Bin is worried about nothing now, just worrying about the population. He shaves a young Asian woman and is now here to shave a European woman.
There are many towns around Plymouth, and these places are also the target of Ma Tiezhu. Anyway, there is plenty of manpower, so how much you can grab it is calculated.
This place is not far from London, and a large number of unknown enemies robbed ashore soon reached Cromwell's ears.
"The enemy from across the Atlantic Ocean? As many as 100,000 people? All yellow-skinned?"
Cromwell's heart sank, and the prophecy of Huang Peril became a reality, and the first one to be hit was Britain.
Europeans did not do anything. While glaring at their relatives, they were crazily collecting news about the country called Ming across the earth.
So far, all we know is that the opponent is extremely powerful, with countless steel warships, can be automatically without wind, and has a fast speed; the army has amazing combat power and advanced weapons.
Cromwell's army also had the flintlock rifles bought from Daming City. Compared with the flintlock rifles produced in Europe, the gap between them is simply hopeless.
And this is just a weapon sold by the other party. Cromwell is a politician, so he knows what this means: the other party must have more advanced weapons, and weapons that dare to sell in bulk are definitely weapons that pose a very small threat to the other party.
But it is this weapon that may not threaten the other party at all, but Europeans are very rare. The outcome of the war is basically determined by the number of flintlock rifles bought by Daming City in their hands.
"Send envoys to ask for their conditions and ask them about their conditions. In addition, send envoys to France, Spain, the Netherlands, Russia... tell them that the Ming people are here!"
"The Ming people are here!"
This news was like pouring a can of boiling oil into a pot of boiling water, making the already restless Europe boil.
On each avenue, messengers kept flowing.
The British had already suffered the first wave of blows, the entire Plymouth was razed to the ground, and all the shipyards, including the materials they had worked hard to collect, were gone.
The craftsmen were also scattered, and even the younger population was taken away, and I don’t know where they were transported.
The British worked hard and the shipbuilding industry, which had been developing for hundreds of years, directly retreated by a hundred years.
"Yellow peril, yellow peril!"
Everyone was exclaiming that no one could come up with any effective method.
The intelligence that the British knew about, and the whole of Europe also knew about it. The power of the Ming people was only heard before, but the disappearance of Plymouth vividly showed the power of the Ming army in front of the Europeans.
Tens of thousands of people in Plymouth were robbed without any fighting back, and did not even cause too much trouble to the other party.
The movement and discipline displayed by the Ming army in the robbery made the Europeans who knew military almost desperate: this was a well-trained, advanced and disciplined army, and there was no similar army in the whole of Europe.
Europe was in panic, but Ma Tiezhu laughed: the harvest of this trip was almost as good as all their harvests on the east coast of Donghuazhou.
There are not many food or anything else. What is important is the boatmen. Although the Chinese company does not need to build wooden boats early, good boatmen must be good carpenters. I believe that they only need simple training to be competent for the construction of the Manhattan base.
As a shipbuilding center, there is definitely no shortage of gold and silver, which is the income of tens of millions of yuan.
Although the young woman does not quite meet the aesthetics of the soldiers of the Qihu Army, she is at least more pleasing than the black skin. Everyone reluctantly expresses their acceptance, at least it can solve the problem of being single.
While arranging the transport ship to transfer the things to Manhattan, he also took the remaining fleet to Brest, France.
Cromwell, who was preparing for war in Southampton, was exhausted when he heard Brest was robbed by the Ming people.
These Ming people simply didn't play according to common sense. It turned out that they were not targeting a certain country at all, but just looking at that place.
"Haha, these guys are all red, like steamed shrimps!"
After all, Brest was not big enough to play with the iron pillar. When he turned around and turned to Southampton, what was waiting for him to greet him on the shore was the parliamentary army in red uniforms controlled by Cromwell, which was later known as the lobster soldiers.
"Wait, someone is coming across the road, raising a white flag!"
This guy was born as a sharpshooter and his eyes were extraordinary. He saw the messenger who was preparing to row over to inquire.
Ma Tiezhu doesn't understand birds' singing, but the British have been engaged in colonization for so many years, so it's okay to search for someone who understands Chinese.
The next communication began with the help of the translation.
"Why are you attacking us?"
Ma Tiezhu clenched his nose: "Because your people have occupied our territory!"
Ma Tiezhu didn't wait for the messenger to speak, and directly pulled a map, and his fingers as thick as a carrot drew on the map: "Did you see it? These places are all our Ming territories. Whoever dares to occupy them will attack us!"
The messenger looked up and almost fainted from anger. It turned out that the horse iron pillar was bounded by the Atlantic Ocean and painted all Greenland and Iceland.
"oh, no! These territories are all from us Europeans, and the Americas across the Atlantic Ocean are also Indians. They have never been from you Ming Dynasty. You are robbing!"
Ma Tiezhu shook his head contemptuously: "No, it's ours now, and you will hit anyone who dares to occupy us!"
In his heart, he actually wanted to put Ireland in together. Unfortunately, Li Bin said that there was nothing good in that ghost place except a few sheep, and it was close to Britain. It was not worth spending too much energy now.
The two met up in a bad mood, one said God, robbers, and robbers; the other was arrogant and rude, saying that America was from the Ming Dynasty, Greenland, and Iceland were from the Ming Dynasty. If we don’t accept it, we will kill you.
Such talks will certainly not have any substantial results.
Ma Tiezhu finally remembered that "the two armies were fighting but not killing the envoys", and released the envoy back.
When he saw the other party in the telescope, he immediately issued an order to let the fleet open fire with all his might.
The parliamentary army, which was majestic and made the royal army run away in the British civil war, was beaten to death without any counterattack in front of artillery that transcends the times, and the lobsters were beaten into dead shrimps without any power.
"Haha, God... let you see the King of Hell first!"
Ma Tiezhu was not very interested in such a small and broken place. He didn't even want a white-skinned woman. In his words, he had large pores and a smell on his body. There was a beautiful lady from the Ming Dynasty.
