Chapter 493 Ready to go, target Luzon

Although the front area was to become the south of the Shuishang Jiangnan and water conservancy facilities were still needed, the existing arable land was enough for more than 10,000 Ming troops to garrison here.

That's right, the more than 10,000 Ming troops were both soldiers and farmers. They held guns in one hand and hoes in the other. Half of the cultivated land they had reclaimed belonged to them, and the guns in their hands defended their homes.

This is similar to the later construction corps. The emperor also hopes to use this model to gain a foothold in the front areas at the fastest speed and try his best to be self-sufficiency.

At the same time, occupying the front condom is also an early precaution for the westward migration of Hudun Rabbit.

The battle with Hudun Rabbit will take place sooner or later. This is not only the emperor's plan to conquer the Mongolian tribes, but also the fate of Hudun Rabbit as the Mongolian Khan.

It’s just a pity that victory is undoubtedly in the hands of the emperor. The two are not equal opponents, and the Tiger Dun Rabbit obviously does not have such a deep understanding.

The emperor obviously had to pay much attention to this year's conquest of Luzon. Not only did he add more investments several times, he added ships and artillery to increase the strength of the navy, but he also gave generous rewards to the officers and soldiers who fought.

Obviously, the Navy was also full of confidence, and the final plan reported reduced the number of warships dispatched.

According to the strength of the Spaniards, Shen Yourong will dispatch eighty warships, and the number of artillery will be four times that of the Spaniards. This is not counted as the power of the rockets and the Garang guns.

The sea storms are uncertain, and although it is a monsoon climate suitable for navigation, there are no accidents.

The navy has made complete preparations, and the islands along the way have been marked with stones, and even sent officers and soldiers to garrison supplies in advance to navigate and be in case.

In this regard, the emperor allowed all the laymen to do not lead the experts and guide them at the strategic level, which is what the emperor could do.

At this time, in the military port of the East Band, the navy had already prepared, and with the transport and supply ships, all 150 or 60 ships of all sizes were ready to go.

In the house near the port, Li Dan looked at Yan Siqi with a smile, waiting for him to ask.

Just after the Chinese New Year, Li Dan arrived in the Eastern Conference, which was nominally a fun and relaxing, but Yan Siqi knew it was not that simple.

Yan Siqi, who devoted a lot to the East Fan, became the host enthusiastically and took Li Dan to visit his manor, his orchard, and his hunting ground.

Now, seeing the densely packed warships at the port and the dozens of sea ships summoned by Li Dan, Yan Siqi knew that this was Li Dan’s real purpose.

"Where do I have to ask?" Yan Siqi was very unhappy with Li Dan's expression. It was time for this time, and she was still holding an air, so she couldn't tell him happily.

Li Dan smiled and said, "If I say that, you have to accompany you on a boat so that you won't be too rude and leak military secrets."

Yan Siqi smiled and said, "Okay, stay with you."

Li Dan nodded slightly, his face was solemn, and he said, "Luzon! Long live ordering the navy to conquer the Spanish in Luzon to avenge their revenge for the murder of our people in the Ming Empire."

Yan Siqi didn't say anything and looked at Li Dan. Whether or not the military action should have nothing to do with Li Dan. Speaking of this, it should be the topic.

Li Dan smiled and said, "If the war goes well, after occupying Luzon, he has been appointed as the governor of Luzon by long live."

Yan Siqi's eyes widened, his face full of shock.

Li Dan liked this very much. He slowly picked up the teacup and sipped the fragrant tea gently.

"Governor?" Yan Siqi's wide mouth slowly closed, and asked with a frown slightly, "The biggest official in Luzon?"

Li Dan nodded and said, "It should be."

After pausing, he explained: "Luzon is an overseas place, and it is different from the mainland. This governor has different powers."

Yan Siqi snorted and said with great dissatisfaction: "No matter how different it is, it is the governor. You have hidden some hardships."

Li Dan bowed his hand and apologized and explained: "When I came to Beijing to meet, I didn't know how long live to order such a mission. After repeated weighing, I accepted the appointment, but I didn't dare to say it randomly."

Yan Siqi thought about it and felt that it made sense, so she couldn't help but sigh helplessly. Time is, life is, who makes me lazy?

Li Dan patted Yan Siqi's arm and comforted: "This Luzon Governor is not that easy to be. Forget this year, I will hand over two million to the court next year, and three million to the next year..."

"I'll pay five million, you give the governor to me?" Yan Siqi interrupted Li Dan's words angrily, as if someone had no money.

Li Dan waved his hand and said, "There are many opportunities, why should you compete with me? Long live the overseas governor, and I am also exploring. I asked you to focus on managing Borneo. Don't you understand now? You know, Borneo has invested a lot, but I have made wedding dresses for you."

Yan Siqi blinked his eyes, feeling a little dazed, and asked tentatively: "What do you mean, long live the future and still have to set up a governor overseas?"

Li Dan nodded and said confidently: "Of course, it depends on the situation of someone operating in Luzon. If it is well managed, why not do it?"

"It makes sense, it makes sense!" Yan Siqi patted her thighs repeatedly, her eyes lit up, and said, "When Borneo reaches a certain level, I will recommend myself to Long Live and compete for a governor."

"That's right, it's this idea and method." Li Dan smiled and said, "Longsui is seen in his eyes. You don't have to ask for it. The position of governor will also be given to you. Of course, you have to let Longsui see your efforts and your abilities."

"I understand, understand." Yan Siqi was very happy, but felt that his future was bright, and his complaints about Li Dan disappeared.

To be honest, Li Dan is not much better than Yan Siqi in management and behavior. Yan Siqi is not so meticulous and has a bit rough behavior, which is why he can only surrender to Li Dan.

It’s not that Li Dan is experienced and has a strong capital, so the emperor is quite accurate. After this incident, Yan Siqi also felt the difference with Li Dan.

"Even if you lack personal abilities, as long as you have talents under your command, the same effect will be the same." Li Dan felt that Yan Siqi wanted to make great progress, and it was indeed a bit difficult for him to give advice.

Yan Siqi nodded repeatedly, feeling a little grateful to Li Dan. Although he had been hiding it for so long, he had to do so. Giving him the Borneo that had been in charge for so long can also show his mind.

Tomorrow, I will sail on the sea and sail straight to Luzon, and then I will start a new chapter in my life.

Li Dan got up, moved his legs and feet, walked to the window and looked out. The mast in the harbor was like a forest, and huge cranes that could move along the track were still busy loading and unloading.

There were food, ammunition and supplies for the army, and Li Dan prepared for himself to become the governor. He had no doubt about victory.

Now, except for the sudden storm and disaster, nothing can stop the Ming army from conquering Luzon.
Chapter completed!
