Chapter 692 Zheng Yiguan Arrives in Wa Kingdom
"I'm back at last, I'm back at last." The man stretched his arms and shouted to the sky, his voice full of longing for his homeland.

This man is none other than Zheng Yiguan who was sent by Zhao Wen to America to find rubber cinchona trees.

Not all of the fleet led by Zheng Yiguan came back, only half of the ships were led.

The boats are loaded with rubber rubber tree seeds as well as cinchona seeds and some cinchona trees.

In addition to these things, there are a small number of local specialties, as well as some weird things.

After Zheng Yiguan arrived in America, he clashed with those colonists in the West.

It's just that these western colonists are not Zheng Yiguan's opponents at all.

When Zheng Yiguan took out the weapons he was carrying, the Western colonists were all defeated without exception.

These high-headed colonists were shunned by Zheng Yiguan under the fierce artillery fire.

Zheng Yiguan established his own rubber tree plantations and cinchona plantations in northern South America and southern North America.

Near the plantation, Zheng Yiguan also built several castles that were not too big.

The manpower brought by Zheng Yiguan couldn't support the plantation at all.

However, Zheng Yiguan was born as a pirate, so Zheng Yiguan had no intention of letting his own people take care of the rubber plantation.

Zheng Yiguan led his men to capture a large number of aborigines, and drove them to take care of the plantations.

At the beginning, the resistance of these natives was relatively fierce.But later, the degree of resistance became smaller and smaller.

After all, the weapon in Zheng Yiguan's hands can't recognize people.

Zheng Yiguan treated these aborigines fairly well, providing them with two full meals a day. Although these aborigines were tired, they could live on.

In addition to the plantation, Zheng Yiguan also asked people to look for mineral deposits nearby.

The hard work paid off, and Zheng Yiguan found a lot of mineral deposits nearby.

Due to the lack of mining equipment and sufficient manpower, Zheng Yiguan did not mine the mine for the time being, but just marked it up.

After all, the manpower in Zheng Yiguan's hands still needs to take care of the plantation.

Zheng Yiguan has established a solid influence in the Americas, although the West has now begun to colonize the Americas.However, the weapons in their hands could not be compared with Zheng Yiguan's.Coupled with the vast land of America, they have been migrating far away.

During these two years, Zheng Yiguan collected enough rubber in the plantation.

Zheng Yiguan originally wanted to come back, but he didn't collect enough rubber at that time, so the matter of going back was shelved.

Now, Zheng Yiguan has collected enough rubber, so he chooses to come back.

"Brother, we are not far from the country of Wa now, and it is estimated that we will reach the country of Wa in two days' journey." Zheng Zhihu stood behind Zheng Yiguan and said to Zheng Yiguan excitedly.

Although it is more comfortable on the American continent, the environment there is simply not comparable to that in China.

Although Zheng Yiguan and the others lived comfortably there, they would inevitably get bored after a long time.

Zheng Yiguan heaved a sigh of relief and said with a smile: "When we arrive in the country of Wa, we will not be far from our homeland. At that time, let's go directly to Dengzhou. Send all the rubber and other things on the boat to Dengzhou, and then go from Dengzhou to Xuanzhou. town delivery.

After we arrived in Dengzhou, we went to Xuanzhen with rubber and other things. "

"We have finally completed the task assigned to us by the adults. It is really not easy." Zheng Zhihu sighed.

Zheng Yiguan and others are overseas, so they don't know that Zhao Wen has ascended the throne as emperor, so they still call Zhao Wen an adult.

"The notice goes on, and we will arrive in the country of Wa in two days. At that time, we will have a good rest in the country of Wa for two days. After two days, we will leave for Dengzhou. Let all the merchants get ready, I will take them to Xuanzhen, when the time comes Don't embarrass me!" Zheng Yiguan turned around and looked at Zheng Zhihu.

Zheng Zhihu said loudly, "Obey!"

Two days later, Zheng Yiguan's fleet appeared on the sea outside Edo City, Japan.

Edo City is near the sea. Zheng Yiguan originally wanted to stop at the northern part of the Wa Kingdom, but he was afraid that the north would not be captured by Hong Chengchou, so he planned to stop at Edo City.

According to Zheng Yiguan, Hong Chengchou has already taken Edo Castle no matter what.

Just as Zheng Yiguan's fleet appeared on the sea outside Edo Castle, the defenders at the port discovered them.

On a port outside Edo Castle, on a tall watchtower made of cement, a soldier held up a telescope to watch the fleet appearing on the sea, and hurriedly rang the warning bell.

The bell echoed non-stop on the port, and everyone in the port became tense instantly.

After Hong Chengchou took Edo Castle, the port outside Edo Castle became extremely prosperous, and a large number of merchant ships came here every day.

There are a large number of merchants in the port now, and after hearing the warning bell, they suddenly became vigilant.

"What happened?" A hundred household officials came to the bottom of the watchtower and kept shouting at the watchtower.

This Baihu is the soldier chief who maintains order in the port.

The soldier standing on the watchtower replied: "An unknown fleet has appeared!"

"An unknown fleet appeared? Did you see their flags clearly?" the Baihu officer asked hastily.

"It shouldn't be, the sea power of the Wa country has been completely destroyed by us. The emperor of the Wa country and the Tokugawa family have fled all the way to the north. Although the Wa country has not been taken down yet, it will be soon. At this time, It shouldn't be the fleet of the Wa Kingdom, because the Wa Kingdom has no fleet anymore." Hundreds of household officials thought about it.

When Hong Chengchou returned to Japan from Xuanzhen, Zhao Wen dispatched [-] regular troops to Hong Chengchou.

Hong Chengchou brought the [-] regular troops together with the wild warriors recruited locally and the recruited soldiers and horses, like the autumn wind sweeping the fallen leaves, sweeping across the entire Japanese kingdom crazily.

Today, more than half of the Wa country has fallen into the hands of Hong Chengchou.Even the Edo Castle of the Tokugawa family fell into the hands of Hong Chengchou.

When Tokugawa Ieyasu entered Edo Castle by Hong Chengchou, he led the defenders and the emperor in the city and fled to the north, all the way to Hokkaido in later generations.

After Hong Chengchou took these places, he did not rush to march, but chose to stabilize the places.

Before Zhao Wen exiled many officials to the Wa Kingdom, Hong Chengchou set up a county in the Huafu of the Wa Kingdom according to the previous configuration of officials in the Ming Dynasty, and began to rule the Wa Kingdom.

When ruling the Wa country, Chinese characters were vigorously promoted.

Although the officials exiled by Zhao Wen are not as capable as Lu Xiangsheng, Hong Chengchou, and Sun Chuanting, they can still rule the Wa country according to the scriptures here.

In the center of Edo City, Hong Chengchou built the governor's office, and Hong Chengchou's current position is the governor of Japan.

In addition to the governor's office, there are a series of other offices.

In Edo City, there are the residence of the Tokugawa family and the emperor's palace, but these places are not suitable for living and working in Hong Chengchou's identity, so Hong Chengchou chose a new place to build the yamen.

At this time, Hong Chengchou was sitting in the study of the governor's yamen, dealing with the recent political affairs.

At this moment, a soldier hurriedly came to the outside of the study, and shouted at Hong Chengchou in the study: "My lord, an unknown fleet suddenly appeared on the sea outside the city, with a huge scale."

Hong Chengchou put down the brush in his hand and walked out.

He looked at the soldier who came to deliver the message, and frowned, "Why did an unknown fleet suddenly appear? Didn't all the navy of the Japanese kingdom be wiped out by us?"

Hong Chengchou also has a navy in the country of Wa. Although the scale is small, it can beat the navy of the country of Wa on the ground.

It's just that this navy is not in Edo now, but has gone to Ryukyu to transport supplies from Xuanzhen.

"My lord, I don't know. It's still unclear where this fleet came from!" The soldier who reported the message replied.

"What are the ships in that fleet? How big is the fleet?" Hong Chengchou then asked.

"Return to my lord, the distance is still relatively far, I don't know very well!" The soldier who reported the letter replied.

"How about this, you take the official's token and inform Sakata Arui and Guo Liang to let them lead their troops to the port." Hong Chengchou took out the seal he carried with him from his arms and handed it to the port. to this soldier.

The soldier took Hong Chengchou's seal and ran out in a hurry.

Guo Liang is the commander-in-chief of Xuanzhen's soldiers and horses, leading the soldiers and horses from Xuanzhen.

The soldiers and horses coming from Xuanzhen are resting in Edo Castle.

Sakata Arii was the Japanese wild warrior who had defected to Zhao Wen before, and now he is Hong Chengchou's capable general, in charge of Hong Chengchou's wild warrior team.

It didn't take long for Hong Chengchou to arrive at the port with soldiers and horses.

At this time, the people on the port had been dispersed, and the fort on the port had also been opened, aiming at the direction where the fleet appeared.

Hong Chengchou came to a relatively high place in the port and held up his binoculars to look at the sea.

At this time, Zheng Yiguan and the others were still relatively far away from the port.Hong Chengchou could only see a rough idea, he could only see the huge size of the fleet, but he couldn't see the specific model of the ships.

"The scale is really big. The Japanese state is poor, so it is impossible to have a fleet of this size. Where did this fleet come from? Could it be Zheng Yiguan's fleet?" Hong Chengchou muttered to himself. the way.

Sakata Arii stood behind Hong Chengchou and said in fluent Chinese: "Master, why don't you make all the forts ready and fire directly when these ships approach?"

Sakata Arii is a militant, his eyes looking towards the sea are full of eager light.

Hong Chengchou shook his head, "It's not clear who is coming at this time, so we can't be so impulsive. I have ordered all the forts on the port to stand by. Without my order, everyone is prohibited from firing."

Although Sakata Arii was belligerent, Hong Chengchou's order had already been given, so he had no choice but to obey.

Although Sakata Arii is a bit reckless, he is a single-minded person.Hong Chengchou was personally sent by Zhao Wen to represent Zhao Wen, so no matter what, Sakata Arii was absolutely obedient.

As time passed, Zheng Yiguan and the others were getting closer and closer to the port.

Hong Chengchou finally saw Zheng Yiguan's ship clearly.

"This is a treasure ship, this is a treasure ship. It seems that this is Zheng Yiguan's fleet. Zheng Yiguan is in that America. He must have come back, maybe it is really him." Hong Chengchou Putting down the binoculars, he hastily said to the messenger next to him: "Go on, the ones coming are not the enemy, they are probably Zheng Yiguan and the others. Tell the fort to withdraw all the shells for me. If Zheng Yiguan's ship is hit by mistake team, that would be bad."

At this time, Zheng Yiguan was standing on the deck of the treasure ship Yangwei, holding up his binoculars and looking at the port ahead.

"There are so many ships on the port, and they are all merchant ships. It seems that my guess is correct. Hong Chengchou has already captured Edo Castle. If Hong Chengchou hadn't captured Edo Castle, there would not be so many ships on the port. Those people from the Tokugawa family are unknown to others, but I know it clearly, it is absolutely impossible for these people to allow so many merchant ships to come to Edo." Zheng Yiguan's face was full of excitement.

When the Tokugawa family ruled the Wa country, the national policy implemented was to close the country.

And Edo Castle is the key protection place of the Tokugawa family, so it is absolutely impossible for so many ships to appear here.

Zheng Zhihu also held up the binoculars. He looked towards the direction of the port, with the corners of his mouth raised, "When I arrive in Japan, I must find some women to have fun. I almost drove me crazy during this time."

When Zheng Yiguan went to America, he didn't take women with him at all, so these people lived like monks in America.

Although there are also female aboriginals, people like Zheng Yiguan really have no interest in these aboriginal women.

"It's worthless!" Although Zheng Yiguan scolded Zheng Zhihu, he thought the same thing as Zheng Zhihu.

"Send a communication ship to the port and explain our identities!" Zheng Yiguan put down his binoculars and looked at Zheng Zhihu.

Zheng Zhihu hurriedly ran back, and after a while, several small boats left the fleet and headed towards the port.

After a while, these small boats came to the sea outside the port.

Seeing this, Hong Chengchou hurriedly sent someone to meet him.

The people on the boat were quickly brought to Hong Chengchou.

"This is Lord Hong Chengchou, the governor of Japan!" A soldier led the people sent by Zheng Yiguan, pointed to Hong Chengchou in front of him, and said to Zheng Yiguan's hand.

A man stood up and said, "Greetings, Mr. Hong. I was sent by Mr. Zheng to make contact. Mr. Zheng is about to arrive at the port, please clear the port for us to dock!"

Hong Chengchou nodded, and said to the soldier who sent the message: "I know, you go down and rest first!"

The soldiers sent by Zheng Yiguan were taken down by Hong Chengchou's men.

"Pass down the officer's order to vacate the port and let Zheng Yiguan's fleet dock!" Hong Chengchou said to the messenger behind him.

As the sun gradually went down, the harbor was finally cleared.

Zheng Yiguan's fleet also docked at the port.

Zheng Yiguan set foot on the land of the port with Zheng Zhihu and his entourage.

Zheng Yiguan stood on the port and said with emotion: "I have finally reached the country of Wa, I have finally reached the country of Wa, it is not easy!"
