Great Master of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 219 230 In the trap of the Kingdom of God

"Hmph! Are you finally willing to admit it? Tell me, why do you pretend not to recognize me when you see me? Who did you instigate to come here?"

With a cold snort, Zuo Ming waved his hand to stop those knights, and then snorted coldly.

"It's all the fault of the Pope of Rome. He asked us to do this. He wants to get your compass and star positioning method..."

His life was threatened, and the native immediately told the whole story, even explaining the details clearly.

Hearing the whole story, Zuo Ming nodded lightly, "It turned out to be Chen Dong! He was unlucky to meet you, otherwise, if other Americans came Therefore, maybe there is a possibility for him to succeed!"

Zuo Ming's tone contained both rejoicing and sarcasm.This can be regarded as fate's greatest mockery of Chen Dong.

"This Roman emperor is indeed abominable. He actually got along with such indecent means!"

Sabo also said angrily from the side.

"It's okay, Chen Dong is too naive. He thought that as long as he has a compass and a star positioning method, he can navigate accurately in the sea. He is really ignorant and fearless. The soldiers of our kingdom of God, didn't they go through several years of systematic study to be able to go smoothly? the man who controls the ship?"

Smiling and shaking his head, Zuo Ming said.

Although the compass and star positioning methods are important, the knowledge of navigation is equally important. If there are only tools without systematic knowledge, such long-distance navigation will also deviate from a very long distance.

"Don't take Chen Dong's benefits for nothing. In the future, you will still act according to Chen Dong's instructions. You can also give them the compass and star positioning methods. However, wherever they go in America in the future, you must give me an accurate location." .Of course, in order to guarantee your loyalty, you must first take the poison I specially prepared. This pill is called 'Shiquan Dabu Pill'. After taking it, you must get an antidote every six months, otherwise you will die. The intestines were pierced and the stomach rotted to death."

Turning the subject around, Zuo Ming turned to the natives again, and took out a pack of homemade toffee as he spoke.

If you use poison, there are so many smart people in this world, there is always a way to get rid of it, it is better to use a non-toxic thing as poison.

Those people must never have imagined that what they ate was actually just a candy, even if they wanted to check their bodies to determine what kind of poison they were, they would not be able to do so, so they would be more fearful—because they were unknown, they were even more terrified. horrible.

Sure enough, after getting that toffee, all the natives looked very hesitant.After all, in this way, it is tantamount to handing over his life and death to Zuo Ming's hands.

"Don't blame me for not believing you. You have already changed your direction before. It is impossible for me to continue to believe in your piety. Swallow it, or die, it is your choice."

Seeing them hesitating there, Zuo Ming said coldly.

"Then... then what if you don't have time to give us the antidote within this year? What if... for some reason, we can't come to get the antidote from you in half a year?"

Looking at Zuo Ming with a cold face, the native said anxiously.

Who can say for sure what will happen half a year later, if I wake up late and miss the time to take the medicine, wouldn't I be wronged?

"So within half a year, you have to show me a good performance. If you perform well, I will naturally give you the antidote in advance. If you don't perform well! Actually, I don't need poison to kill you!"

Smiling coldly again, Zuo Ming didn't bother to talk to them anymore, and said to the surrounding knights, "In ten breaths, kill all those who haven't taken the medicine."

At this moment, those natives didn't dare to hesitate anymore, and quickly swallowed the medicine in their hands.

"Very good! From now on, you all go to work at the dock, where you will learn a lot of sailing knowledge, and when your skills are proficient enough, I will arrange for you to board the ship."

Nodding in satisfaction, Zuo Ming finally showed a smile.

After dismissing these dejected natives, Zuo Ming recruited another admiral.

"Notify the American side that it's time to go south. Leave the west coast alone and let them set up more watchtowers on the east coast. Once the Roman fleet is found, it will be sunk immediately with artillery."

"Yes! Your Majesty!"

The admiral gave a solemn salute, and then retreated.

At this time, Zuo Ming turned to Sabo, and said slowly, "You heard what those natives said just now, the Ming Protoss has gone north, and their own people are loyal to me. You take this dagger, Go to America, and then lead a group of people south, and join them as soon as possible. That will be an inestimable force, enough to speed up our America plan for another five or even ten years! There is no room for loss!"

When he said the last sentence, Zuo Ming looked extremely serious and serious.

"Your Majesty, rest assured! Sabo promises to complete the mission!"

Hearing that he could finally go to the New World, Sabo was very excited and said with a blushing face.

Next, Sabo gathered his men and drove all the way to the American continent.

And Di Renjie on the American side, after receiving Zuo Ming's order, also began to arrange for the east coast of the American continent.

Originally, it was difficult to achieve this kind of all-round monitoring with their hands, but recently Datang's first all-steel mobile ship was finally born. After the trial voyage, it directly transported a large number of Tang troops to the America.

Ever since Li Tai went to Australia, the navy of the Tang Dynasty has fallen into the hands of Jiangxia King Li Daozong. In these years without Zuo Ming, Li Daozong has lived a very nourishing life, and the unhappiness between him and Zuo Ming has faded a bit. points, so the people sent out are extremely obedient.

Of course, this is also the reason why Li Daozong is getting old and really doesn't want to fight the old monster Zuo Ming anymore.

He doesn't know how long he can live anymore, and his health is getting worse and worse. If this continues, after his death, whether his Jiangxia Palace can be kept is really an unpredictable question.

Steel ships are used as power, and more than a dozen sailboats are towed behind them, which has basically become the main navigation method of Datang.But in this way, the consumption of coal mines is much larger.And because explosion-proof lamps have not been developed yet, there are huge dangers and losses in coal mining today.

At least, they can't collect the gas in those coal mines, they can only discharge it through ventilation.

With the support of Datang, the blockade of the east coast is much simpler.

On the one hand, Di Renjie sent a large number of aborigines to build a watchtower and beacon tower every [-] miles; on the other hand, he even built a small barracks in each area to garrison troops.

With the help of so many natives, they don't have to worry about food and water. All they have to do is to lend some agricultural tools and ironware to those natives for paid use.

In addition to the camp, Di Renjie actually started the construction of towns on the west coast, in order to resettle some immigrants from the Tang Dynasty.

In today's Tang Dynasty, many people have fallen in love with immigration. After all, it is easy to own a vast land, and even dozens or even hundreds of slaves, and there is no need for a few years or even ten years. The benefits of paying any taxes are worth their family relocation.

When Zuo Ming and Datang were intensively deploying North America, the second batch of explorers from Rome also set off.Because not long ago, they had obtained the compass and star positioning method of the Kingdom of God.

This time it was still Madrid who went to the Americas. Compared with the last time, he was extremely confident this time.Because he is as smart as him, he has completely mastered the correct use of the compass and the star positioning method.

Now, he has enough confidence that he will be able to go all the way west to reach Zuo Ming's base in America.This time he brought a total of 5000 people, just to catch Zuo Ming by surprise and destroy all the arrangements of Zuo Ming.

On this journey across the ocean, they also imitated the people of the Kingdom of God to bring a lot of fruit, and because of the sufficient food and the correct calculation of the voyage time, not many people died.

Then, when they saw the golden coast and the endless plantain forest, a burst of violent artillery fire suddenly flew out from the forest, smashing their densely packed fleet into pieces, and then, they I saw many aborigines and heavily armed soldiers of the kingdom of God entered the sea on rafts and rushed towards their ships!

Those people were carrying explosive kits and grenades, and once they approached, they would attack violently, making them even have no chance to resist.

These people from the Kingdom of God and the natives were too well prepared, as if they had already expected their arrival.This made Madrid feel a chill from head to toe.

"The Kingdom of God knew we were coming! Those scum of the Protoss lied to us! Withdraw! Withdraw quickly! Only one escapes, and we must report this matter to His Majesty!"

Realizing the seriousness of the matter, Madrid quickly ordered a retreat.

It's just that at this moment, a few huge ships slowly drove out behind a small island in the distance, blocking their way!
Madrid is indeed a talent. According to Zuo Qiu's few words and Zuo Ming's compass and star positioning method, he easily arrived at the base of the American God Kingdom where Zuo Qiu was born.

However, this is also the largest and most dominant base of the entire Kingdom of God in America!

The small island here is full of tall watchtowers. Through the telescope, those people from the Kingdom of God can easily spot the fleets coming and going, so when they are a hundred miles away from the east coast, they have actually been captured. The people of the Kingdom of God have discovered it.
