Daming Crazy Emperor

Taichang really did not expect that Zuma and Atlanta would run back at this time.

What are these two guys doing back here?

He was stunned for a while, then nodded slightly and said: "It's just right, we are discussing matters in Africa, let them come over directly."

After a while, Zuma and Atlante walked in quickly, clapping their hands excitedly: "See the emperor."

These two guys, who haven't seen each other for more than half a year, already look like they've been reborn.

The childishness on their faces has disappeared without a trace, replaced by a look of iron and blood on their faces.

It seems that these two guys have been fighting a lot.

Taichang nodded slightly, then raised his hand and said, "Well, sit down and talk."

Zuma and Atlante heard the words, and quickly sat down beside Zheng Zhilong and Sheng Huaixuan obediently.

At this time, Taichang discovered that there was a scar several inches long on Zuma's cheek.

He couldn't help but asked with concern: "What's going on, Zuma, are you injured?"

Zuma touched the scar on his face subconsciously, and moved: "It's okay, your majesty, the last general was accidentally scratched by an arrow when he led the army to charge."

Alas, you are the one who wants to be the emperor, you can't be so desperate!

Taichang solemnly taught: "Be careful next time, don't lead the army to charge yourself, you are the coach, not the vanguard, you can let your generals do the charge."

Zuma nodded quickly and said, "The general will understand."

Taichang then asked again: "Why did you run back?"

Zuma couldn't help but excitedly said: "Your Majesty, we have wiped out the Dameho Kingdom and the Oyo Empire!

When we come back this time, we want to ask the emperor to send a ship to send our people back to West Africa, and we also want to ask the emperor to issue a decree for the canonization of the king, so that we can establish the Kingdom of West Africa in a legitimate way. "

Uh, the kingdom of West Africa?

Such a large territory, to establish a kingdom!
Taichang couldn't help being curious: "What's going on, isn't it agreed to establish a West African empire?"

Zuma quickly explained: "Your Majesty, we discussed with General Zhang and decided that it is better to establish a kingdom.

Everything we have is given by the emperor, the country we established must be a vassal state of Ming Dynasty, how can we call ourselves an empire?

Also, Ming Dynasty can only have one emperor, we dare not call ourselves emperor. "

Well, you just know how to be grateful.

Taichang nodded slightly and said: "Okay, I will decree to canonize you as the king of the West African Kingdom.

However, this canonization cannot be done here.

You are the king of the West African Kingdom, and the canonization must be done in the West African Kingdom.

Otherwise, your people will not see it, and this canonization ceremony will be meaningless. "

It turned out to be the case.

Zuma nodded quickly and said, "The general will understand."

Taichang then said solemnly: "I want to tell you a very unfortunate news, we found that European countries are gathering troops to attack Africa.

This time they have assembled nearly 200 million people, and it is estimated that they want to win the whole of Africa as soon as possible.

How many troops do you have now, can you withstand their crazy attack? "

Zuma and Atlanta couldn't help but look solemn when they heard the words.

They are not afraid.

The European colonial robbers will fight sooner or later.

They have already been mentally prepared for this.

Question, there are too many people gathered this time, nearly 200 million people, can they handle it?

Zuma thought about it carefully, and then said solemnly: "Your Majesty, I need your help with this.

We have no shortage of men and horses, but we lack weapons.

At this moment we have recruited nearly 50 horses, and it is not a problem to recruit another million or so.

The problem is, we don't have enough weapons.

At the moment, nearly 50 recruits are almost equipped with long guns, not many knives. "

Uh, this is mainly because things in South America have been delayed.

Because Spain suddenly brought in 40 reinforcements, they had to urgently expand their army by 50 to defend the entire South America.

Therefore, most of the weapons originally prepared for the Black God Army were distributed to the coalition forces of the South American Indian tribes.

Taichang was quite embarrassed and said: "Bo Ya, how are the weapons and equipment of the Black God Army prepared?"

Sun Chuanting quickly introduced in detail: "Your Majesty, 50 black iron knives and 50 gun heads are ready, roughly 30 sets of black iron armor have been built, and we have already cast 5000 artillery pieces. Slow down, we have only built more than [-] at this moment."

Fortunately, I can finally get it.

Taichang nodded slightly and said: "These are all ready to be loaded on the ship and taken to the West African Kingdom. In addition, don't stop the black iron sword, gun head, black iron armor, artillery and firearms. The equipment for the 150 million recruits of the Black God Army must be equipped as soon as possible." .”

Now the battlefield has shifted to Africa. As long as the Black God Army can withstand the European Union's attack, it will be able to slow down their development and even consume their troops.

In this way, Daming will have enough time to prepare.

Sun Chuanting naturally understood this, he nodded hurriedly and said, "I understand."

Zuma heard the words and couldn't help but excitedly said: "Thank you, the emperor, as long as we have enough weapons and equipment, we will definitely be able to withstand the European Union's attack.

By the way, Your Majesty, we also brought over a ship of gold and a ship of precious stones.

According to Old General Zhang, those nobles in Europe like sparkling gems, but they don’t know if these are enough to pay for this batch of weapons and equipment. "

My God, a boatload of gold and a boatload of precious stones are worth millions of catties!

A million catties of gold is worth hundreds of millions of taels of silver!
The value of millions of catties of gemstones is even more incalculable.

How can I make you spend money if I let you hold up the Continental Union.

Taichang thought for a while, and then said decisively: "Well, this batch of weapons and equipment is considered to be given to you by me, congratulations on your enthronement as king.

As for these gold and precious stones, I will replace them with gold ingots, silver ingots, gold coins, silver coins, and copper coins to help you establish a currency system, so that you can do business with Daming and all of Daming’s vassal states. "

150 million sets of weapons and equipment, including muskets and cannons, will be rewarded directly!
This reward is simply too terrifying!

Zuma quickly stood up and bowed, "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your kindness."

what is this.

Taichang raised his hand slightly, motioning him to sit down, and then said generously: "How about this, I will give you another hundred Thunder God cannons of two hundred catties, and a thousand Fengshen flintlock guns, and you will build up ten thousand personal guards for yourself. Protect yourself well."

There are also Thor cannons and Fengshen flintlock guns!
Zuma was so excited that he didn't know what to say, and Atlante was even more envious.

Seeing this, Taichang simply said: "Atlante, you are the same, I will also give you a hundred [-]-jin Thor cannons, a thousand Fengshen flintlock guns, and you will also set up [-] personal guards for yourself. protect yourself."

Atlanta quickly stood up and bowed, "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your kindness."

These are actually nothing.

Taichang nodded slightly, then raised his hand to let Atlante sit down, and then solemnly said: "Zuma, I will give you a thousand Spike warships in the West African Kingdom, so that you will not be spared when facing the warships of the European Union." There is no way to fight back.

However, you have to remember that it's okay if the ship is sunk, and the Thor cannon on it must not be captured by the Continental Union.

If you feel that the ship cannot be kept, then dismantle the Thor cannon on it and throw it into the sea. "

There are also a thousand Spike warships, and they are still equipped with Thor cannons!

Zuma couldn't help jumping up again, bowed her hands and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your kindness."

Taichang nodded slightly, then waved his hand and said: "Okay, you go to Xin'anyang City first, let your clansmen prepare for it, and I will mobilize ships for you as soon as possible. After ten days, you will set off to go back to establish the country and prepare for it." Defend against the Continental Union attack."

Zuma and Atlanta heard the words, and quickly bowed and left.

Sun Chuanting looked at their backs and said solemnly: "Your Majesty, can their weapons and equipment withstand the European Union's attack?"

These are certainly not enough!

Taichang also nodded solemnly and said: "Of course this little weaponry is not enough. If they want to withstand the attack of the European Union, the most important thing is the artillery.

The problem is that the coastal defense artillery is a big guy weighing a thousand pounds, and it is too troublesome to carry it. They have to learn how to cast it by themselves.

At the beginning, I had promised Mingshi to build shipyards and cannon factories for the West African Kingdom, so naturally I will build them together this time.

In addition, the smelter has to match them, otherwise they can only cast cannons, and they don't have enough materials.

Prepare here, prepare all the steam machine tools needed to build coastal defense guns, and then equip them with a group of experienced masters to teach them well. "

When Sun Chuanting heard the words, he quickly cupped his hands and said, "I understand."

There is still a lot to prepare.

It is not that simple to canonize a king who is a subject of a country. It is not just sending a eunuch to read the canonization edict.

According to the rules of the Ming Dynasty, there must be a special boat seal, and a large number of officials, especially officials from the Ministry of Rites, must be sent to announce the decree to show grandeur.

All these matters in Taichang were left to Wen Zhenmeng to prepare.

As for the smelter and shipyard, he left it to Peng Bin to prepare to go.

Ten days later, the capital of Western Yin gathered ships again. Taichang mobilized [-] Aegis ships, [-] armed merchant ships, and [-] Spike warships for Zuma and Atlanta to help them transfer The people from Xin'anyang City.

In addition, Wen Zhenmeng specially decorated an Aegis ship to be beaming and used it as a boat seal.

Taichang took Zuma and Atlanta to explain in detail, and a huge team of more than [-] ships set off just like that.

The capital of Western Yin is only more than ten thousand miles away from the Gold Coast, and the fleet arrived in Accra more than ten days later.

This is the capital of the Kingdom of West Africa. At this time, more than [-] troops gathered inside and outside the city, as well as representatives of various tribes who came to participate in the founding ceremony. Residents, etc., add up to millions of people.

As soon as the huge fleet of the Ming Empire arrived, the coastlines on both sides of the port were immediately crowded, and the civilians who watched the excitement lined up a dozen miles wide on each side, and the exclamation and cheers resounded through the world.

The people who were sold as slaves on the navy ship were even more tearful and ecstatic after disembarking.

They came back at last, finally returned to their native land, their homeland.

The next step is to move all kinds of property bestowed by the emperor of the Ming Empire.

The generosity of the emperor of the Ming Empire shocked both Zuma and Atlanta.

Weapons and equipment, gold and silver coins, all kinds of food, cloth and porcelain, delicacies, frozen seafood, etc., and even steam machine tools are all calculated by ship. Taichang gave them hundreds of ships of goods!
The next step is to prepare for the founding ceremony.

Zuma didn't spend too much extravagance. He felt that the Dutch Governor's Palace was good, so he simply set up his palace in the Governor's Palace.

However, Wen Zhenmeng shook his head again and again after a field trip.

He didn't encourage Zuma to be extravagant and wasteful. The main governor's mansion is too small, and even the entire city of Accra can only accommodate tens of thousands of people.

The territory of the Kingdom of West Africa is larger than that of the Mughal Empire. It would be too shabby if the founding ceremony was held in a small city that could only accommodate tens of thousands of people.

He discussed with Zuma, and simply ordered more than half a million Black God Army soldiers to clear out a flat area with a radius of tens of miles beside Accra City, and built a huge platform with a height of several feet in the middle with wood and stones.

On the day of the founding ceremony, Zuma followed the rules of the Ming Dynasty, bathed and changed clothes, put on a special dragon robe, sacrificed to the world, and then took all the generals under his command to the high platform.

At this time, millions of people from the West African kingdom had gathered on the flat ground around the high platform, and they were all looking forward to the moment when the West African kingdom was established.

"Boom", a burst of gun salute sounded, and Zuma did not hesitate to bring all the generals and hundreds of thousands of soldiers under him to kneel down.

Wen Zhenmeng unfolded the canonized edict and read it aloud, then took the seal and the edict and solemnly handed it to Zuma.

After receiving the seal and edict, Zuma got up after leading hundreds of thousands of soldiers, and sat on the throne in the middle with the seal and edict, and said solemnly: "I declare that the Kingdom of West Africa will be established forever A vassal of the Ming Empire!"
