It was not until half a month later that the Ming army sailors found traces of other merchant ships in front of the lookout post.

It looks like a sea ship in Annan area, and the Minghai ships have not had too much contact. However, I guess they are not very far from the Annan area.

Six or seven days later, the Minghai ship finally arrived on land.

After discovering the land, Minghai ships did not stay for a long time, but followed the chart and sailed towards the coastal area under the wind.

This trip to Minghai did not go to Guangnan but to the boundary south of Guangnan, so he did not encounter any interception by Guangnan naval warships. The Annan ships encountered nearby did not know why this huge merchant fleet went south along the coastline.

In order to cover up, Minghai ships also pushed the cannons on the deck into the cabin.

On the sea not far away, a two-mast bird boat was sailing towards the merchant fleet.

After the bird boat approached a lucky ship led by the head, the Ming merchants on the boat shouted: "We are Luzon Chinese merchants and come to Annanhai for trade."

The officers and soldiers on the bird boat obviously understood the words of the Chinese merchants.

He raised his head and shouted to the merchants on the boat.

"Since you are a Nanyang merchant, please follow me." Soon the bird boat rowed its oars and sailed towards the distant coastline.

About two hours later, the fleet arrived at a sea estuary. The river rolled up thousands of mud and sand and rushed towards the sea in a fierce manner, almost washing a large area of ​​sea water at the outskirts into a faint turbid color, forming a sharp contrast with the blue sea water ahead.

I guess this is Midi's territory.

Yang Yong stood on an eagle boat, holding his hands to stare at the eight blessed boats not far away.

Behind him, dozens of warships of all sizes gathered here, watching this strange visitor.

Lin Xu also looked at this large fleet on the deck.

However, a hint of contempt appeared on his dark face.

The warships that entrenched seemed to be numerous, but they were all bird boats and fast ships. They only carried a small gun cannon on the ship, and some didn't even have gun cannons.

Looking around, there are very few warships on the nearby sea, and there are only a few people wearing military uniforms.

The soldiers were wearing sword cards or spears and hooks. Several gunmen holding muskets were also seen pushing bullets into the barrel or pouring gunpowder into the barrel in panic.

Looking at these mobs, Lin Xu couldn't help but shake his head. Although dozens of warships were surrounding him, as long as the cannons in the cabin could be pushed out, the group of Ming people would be defeated in just one hour.

Even eight lucky ships will not cause much damage.

Yang Yong naturally didn't know what the Ming generals on the Fu ship were thinking.

At this time, he looked at the eight lucky ships that were staying on the sea not far away, and a look of greed appeared on his face.

"General, it seems that it was a merchant ship sent by the Ming court of Luzon. It is estimated that it was to send us silver and food." The bird boat had also returned to report the message before.

"Yes, go and notify Lord Yang Yandi." Yang Yong looked at a lucky boat led by him. A sampan was placed on the lucky boat, and about a dozen people squeezed on the boat and rowed towards him.

"Take them to the shore." Yang Yong also felt that there was inconvenience at sea, so he went to the land to discuss in detail.

Soon Brother Ding sat on the sampan and went to the land, and there were ten Ming army sailors along with him.

The soldiers present looked at the group of Luzon merchants curiously.

Brother Ding only brought a few followers of merchants, and the merchants on other merchant ships naturally stayed on the merchant ships. The Ming soldiers followed Lin Xu off the ship and went off the ship to the land under Lin Xu's instructions.

The purpose is naturally to protect these businessmen.

As the owner of the ship's trip to Minghai this time in Annan, Lin Xu naturally had to protect him carefully.

The soldiers on the shore looked at these Ming soldiers with great envy.

A black musket was on the shoulders, bright armor, sword guns and strange things that looked like medicine pestles.

It was already late spring, and the Shuizhenla area located in Southeast Asia was gradually becoming hotter.

However, it is not unbearable for Ming Shang, a Ming person living in Luzon.

Following Yang Yong, more than a dozen Ming Shangs and soldiers entered a small path, surrounded by dense rainforests, and the road was muddy during the period.

Several Chinese businessmen engaged in maritime trade, but they did not often walk into this kind of rainforest mountain road. They seemed unable to walk through the dense rainforest. They fell several times and their gorgeous clothes were covered with dirt.

Fortunately, the Ming army soldiers on the side supported the merchants, which allowed the merchants to go on.

Yang Yong, who was standing beside him, couldn't help but be surprised when he looked at the more than ten soldiers.

He deliberately picked a shortcut, which could save half a day's journey. He wanted to test whether these soldiers from the Luzon Ming court were just like that. Who would have thought that the ten Ming soldiers who followed him had fallen and were still very neat. On the contrary, several of his soldiers were slid under the slope by the muddy mountain path, covered in mud and mosquitoes, and were extremely miserable.

In fact, these Ming soldiers played guerrilla warfare with pirates under Muhanvilli on the Bataan Islands, fought with the foreigners on the island, and shuttled through the dense and wet rainforests. From time to time, they had to beware of the local foreigners or pirates' whistle arrows or poisonous arrows. They had already developed amazing combat qualities, and they could not compare to these Midi Akira who was scattered and waiting to die.

During the march, these Ming soldiers had never left the gun, and several brand-name players were still standing outside to protect the group.

Yang Yong could naturally see that these Ming people in Luzon were guarding against him. He smiled at Brother Ding and said, "You will arrive after another mile."

After hearing this, Brother Ding nodded. As a maritime businessman who has been sailing on the sea for many years, this little bit of pain is still a waste.

In fact, although these Chinese merchants were muddy, they were not tired at all, and they could even keep up with the marching of officers and soldiers.

Of course, this is also related to the support of the Ming soldiers.

About a quarter of an hour later, after passing through a vast forest, the group finally saw the plain.

Standing on the ridges of the fields, looking around, there are all rice fields, and the rising sunlight falls among the fields and turns into a warm brilliance.

They had never been to Zhenla, but the paddy fields, depressions and the farmer standing in the fields were unforgettable.

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content later! The group did not disturb the farming of these farmers. They looked at the indigenous people holding hoes with surprise while advancing towards the village.

"Since Lord Ruan of Guangnan allowed us to go south to settle in the fertile land of Shuizhenla, Lord Yang has recruited refugees and established villages and villages."

Yang Yong pointed to this paddy field and said, "In recent years, Lord Yang worked hard to appease the refugees of the Chinese and recruited the Han people. Now there are more than ten villages nearby, with local Chinese and foreigners, and Han people can account for five or six."

Brother Ding silently looked at the folks working in the nearby fields, and there were indeed many Han people in his appearance.

The city was still some distance away from these villages, and the group finally decided to leave after lunch in a village.

More than a dozen soldiers broke into several houses and collected food from the homes of some villagers.

It was noon at this time, and every household was cooking, and the soldiers also found a lot of food.

A group of more than fifty people requisitioned several bamboo houses for meals for residents.

Southeast Asia has a hot and rainy climate, and most of the houses are bamboo or wooden buildings, which is a type of dry-railed building in the south.

The roof of the house is in the shape of a "human" and is easy to drain during the rainy season and will not cause water accumulation.

The bottom floor of bamboo building is generally not resident. It is a place where poultry and firewood are piled up. The upper floor is where residents live, so it is also called a high-legged house.

This type of house has excellent ventilation conditions and is very suitable for Southeast Asia in hot and rainy climates.

Architectures like Luzon are also common, and Ming people are also used to them.
