Emperor Liu Hong

Sure enough, as Liu Hong predicted, as soon as these two laws were promulgated, plus Fugui was conferred the title of Marquis for discovering the New World, and all the other crew members on board became barons or viscounts, this immediately triggered the people's desire to go to sea. It's frenzied.Moreover, not only the common people went to sea one after another, but many aristocratic families also bought ships and wanted to go out to try their luck.

For such a thing, Liu Hong is of course happy to hear it.You must know that these aristocratic families have much more advantages than those ordinary people in this respect.After all, they have money and can buy a boat by themselves. Once they participate, the possibility of finding the location island is much greater.In this way, this frenzy can be maintained for a longer period of time.

People went to sea one after another, and good news kept coming.There are quite a few mineral deposits, which were discovered by everyone who went out, making many people rich overnight. As a result, this frenzy became even more violent, and more people were willing to go out to try their luck.

Liu Hong is busy leading the people to go to sea here, and Liu Fu and Dong Zhuo have completely leveled Java Island.So the two joined forces, turned back, and began to attack Sulawesi Island in the north of Java Island.

The area of ​​Sulawesi is larger than that of Java, and there are more people on it than Java.Therefore, Liu Fu and Dong Zhuo split up into two groups, and completely played around on this island.

Liu Fu, Dong Zhuo and the others wiped out Java Island, and then went to Sulawesi Island to sweep wildly.But their actions really frightened those countries on Sumatra Island.Those countries headed by Sri Buddha sent envoys together.I went to find Lu Zhi.

To be honest, Lu Zhi didn't have a good impression of some foreigners.Especially now that they are typically a group of dying people, Lu Zhi is even less in the mood to talk to them.But the problem is.It's not good for him to ignore them now, otherwise, once they despair and completely riot, they may disrupt the arrangement of the army.

You know, some time ago, when Liu Fu entrusted him to transport the prisoners, he had a conversation with him.This Sumatra Island, because his Governor's Mansion sits here, can facilitate supplies and transport prisoners.Simply put it at the end to exterminate.And in this way.within a long time.This island of Sumatra must remain the same.After all, Liu Fu's mission this time is too heavy, let alone those countless small islands.These are the two islands of Sulawesi in the northeast and Borneo in the north.As far as the area is quite huge, it is not something that can be done in a short time if it is to be completely leveled.Therefore, in his opinion, within two or three years, Liu Fu and the others will not be able to come to Sumatra Island.

"Well, no matter what, let's stabilize them first." Thinking of this, Lu Zhi called the envoys over.Then he began to appease them, "Messengers, we big men are reasonable, and we never send troops to our country for no reason. But this time, there is really no way to send troops. Those countries not only bully our people, but also refuse to admit their mistakes. We only punish them after repeated negotiations. Therefore, you don’t have to worry about it at all. As long as your country treats the big fellows who go to you well, we are friends. It's not going to happen.”[

After hearing Lu Zhi's words, the envoys were a little relieved.Then, I started to inquire about the specific situation of the battle, "Governor, I don't know what places the big man is going to attack this time, and what purpose is he going to achieve? As far as we know, the Java Island to the east of us has been completely wiped out by you." It’s clean, and now that you’re in Sulawesi, don’t you want to wipe it out completely?!”

"Isn't this nonsense? If we don't destroy it, what are we going to do? Could it be playing house with them!" Hearing the envoys' questioning, Lu Zhi slandered, "Emissaries, in our Han Dynasty, the military and government are separated. The army does not interfere with politics, and the government does not interfere with the army. Therefore, we civilian officials do not know the specific situation about these military matters, so we cannot answer you. But generally speaking, as long as they are sensible and confess their mistakes to our Majesty, our Majesty will not They will kill them all. Regarding this point, I think the envoys should have a deep understanding."

After hearing Lu Zhi's words, the messengers nodded secretly.You know, last time, these countries were almost no different from being beaten down.But as soon as their king bowed his head and agreed to pay compensation, the big man immediately stopped attacking.But they didn't know that at that time, there were really not so many big men, and they occupied their place, so they wanted to temporarily use colonial methods to control their place.However, Lu Song's disturbance directly made Liu Hong make up his mind to completely eliminate these hidden dangers.

Although I didn't get any detailed information, I know that these countries are safe.So, they all happily went back to work.But different from them, Gan Ning sat on the boat, but he was worried.

At the instigation of his subordinates, Gan Ning led the fleet to search northeast.But this search lasted more than 20 days, not to mention islands, even larger reefs, but they couldn't find them.Now, Gan Ning really didn't know what to do.It didn't matter if he was ordered to look for it and he couldn't find it.But this time he acted out of selfish motives and led people to search in the northeast without authorization.It would be nothing if he found the island, but if he went back empty-handed, his face would be completely lost.

"Oh, I shouldn't have listened to their agitation." Sitting in the cabin, Gan Ning couldn't help sighing, "The commander's task is so heavy, it cannot be completed in a short time. If I destroy the Northern Mariana Islands, just go back and hand in the order, can you miss the task? My future girlfriend's latest chapter. Why is it like this now, you can't advance or retreat!"

But Gan Ning also knew that the most important thing in this matter was to blame himself.If he didn't want to lead the team too much and enjoy the feeling of being in power, this matter would not have happened.

"Hey, let's look for another day. If I haven't found it yet, I will return. Although I will lose face if I go back empty-handed, it is better to lose face than to delay the business!"

Gan Ning was in a hurry in the cabin, those waiting for Gan Ning were even more anxious.You know, their original intention is to make more contributions outside, so that they can return to the main army, and want to show off to those acquaintances, so as to gain face.But in the current situation, not to mention gaining face, if they can not lose face, even if they burn high incense, how can they bear it.Therefore, they, one by one, all stood on the deck with binoculars and looked into the distance.

"Hey, what's that?" A sharp-eyed general saw something in the distance, pointed there and started shouting, "Look, everyone, is that little black spot in front of you an island?!"

Hearing this, everyone raised their binoculars and looked at the place where the general pointed.

"Yes, it's an island, it's an island!" After waiting for so many days, finally seeing the island, everyone shouted excitedly, "Quick, quick, go and report to the general to make the general happy!"

Everyone also knew Gan Ning's depression, now that the island was discovered, those generals immediately ran to report to Gan Ning.

"General, general, found the island, found the island!"

"What, you found the island?" Hearing this, Gan Ning almost jumped up happily, and while running outside, he asked, "Where is the island? Where is the island? Is it big or not?" [

"Look, general, the island is over there." After speaking, the generals began to guide Gan Ning, "General, it seems that the island is not small, and there must be a lot of people on it."

"Okay, as long as there is an island with people." Seeing that there is indeed an island in front of him, Gan Ning is relieved. At least, he can do business this time, so that he won't lose face again. "Brothers, speed up and go all out." Go forward, so we can get to that island as quickly as possible!"

"The general has an order, advance at full speed!"

"Full speed ahead!"

With an order, the fleet increased its horsepower and began to rush towards the island.It didn't take long for them to arrive at the island.

"Brothers, search hard for me, if you see anyone, catch them all, don't let anyone go!"

"It's the general, don't let anyone go!"

After spending so much time on the ship, the soldiers were already exhausted.Now Gan Ning gave an order, and they rushed off the boat screaming, and went to sweep the island.

Of course, sweeping is not enough, and scouts have to be sent out.After all, for a place like this that has never been discovered before, understanding its situation is much more important than capturing a few slaves on it.Therefore, Gan Ning also sent a lot of scouts, including water and land routes, to find out everything here.

As the scouts continued to send in information, Gan Ning became more and more happy, "My day, not only are there people on this island, but there are many. The most important thing is that after a preliminary judgment, there are no people around here." Not only this one island, there are seven or eight islands on the big island alone, and more than 100 small islands. This time, I can finally do business!"

Although there are more than a hundred islands, it is not too many.But these islands are different from those before. You know, they are islands that have never been discovered.Even Gan Ning didn't know the policy promulgated by Liu Hongxin.But he also knows that the credit for discovering so many unknown islands is definitely greater than occupying those discovered islands.

There are more than 100 islands, even if they are not big, it is not an easy task to completely wipe them out.Therefore, Gan Ning suppressed his temper and frantically raided these islands.But he didn't know that this made Liu Fu very anxious.
