A Dream of Red Mansions: the Strongest Playboy

"Zhao Yun, continue training the cavalry for me! In half a month, I want to see a brand new iron army!"

"Yes!"

"Jia Xu, continue to investigate the enemy's situation for me, especially pay attention to the movements of Arabutan."

"Yes, Arabutan is quite unwilling to go back this time." Jia Xu lowered his voice and said: "I have accurate information, the Queen of Rakshasa, Ekaterina, heard that the Qing army, Luobu Zang Tenzin and Arabu Tan’s battle in Xining. She despised the combat effectiveness of the Qing army, and her ambition to intervene in the northwest of our country was even more obvious. On the basis of the three thousand Cossacks she had previously dispatched, she asked the Far East Governor to send two thousand musket Cossack cavalry to support Arabtan.”

"Oh?" Baoyu's eyes lit up: "So, the wolf's claws are even sharper?"

"Yes, with a full XNUMX Cossack cavalry, Arabutan already has one of the most ferocious musket cavalry troops in the Far East." Jia Xu's expression became more solemn: "Arabutan has vowed to fight hard, ready to fight back at any time, and report An arrow of revenge."

Baoyu smiled and said, "I'm afraid he won't come. This time, the four major forces of Yongzheng, Luobu Zang Tenzin, Arabutan, and Yekaterina should be counted together. Let them weaken each other and fight to the death. The more people who die, the better."

Jia Xu nodded in approval.

The most satisfying thing about Baoyu, the lord, is that he has no unnecessary compassion and kindness.This is very similar to Cao Cao. In Jia Xu's view, this is a necessary condition for those who succeed.

For example, blocking the Qinghai grain road, sacrificing the entire Qinghai people, or not afraid of the collapse of the Qing Dynasty, provoking a full-scale war with the Rakshasa Kingdom.

"But do we have enough strength to fight against the Rakshasa country?" Jia Xu was also a little worried. After all, the Qing army's combat power was worrying at this time, and it would be very difficult to get a Luo Bu Zang Tenzin. Once Yekaterina saw it If you are weak, you will immediately send troops to rush up like wolves, and it will not be worth the loss.

Baoyu smiled: "You come with me."

He took Zhao Yun and Jia Xu back to the room, used the portal, and directly entered Hong Kong, his naval base in the south.

Seeing the magnificent scene in front of him, Jia Xu and Zhao Yun were stunned!

Hong Kong has become a big naval base at this time. Baoyu spent XNUMX yuan in exchange for the naval dock. Under the urging of tens of thousands of craftsmen recruited by Zheng He, day and night, according to the blueprint of [Sail Battleship], it will produce a hundred years beyond this era. Sail battleship.

With Baoyu's establishment of the "Liu Li Workshop", with sufficient financial support, the naval dock was at full capacity, and one after another, fully armed sail battleships were launched into the water with heavy loads, splashing huge waves one after another.

In front of Jia Xu and Zhao Yun, another sailing battleship that had just been built was successfully launched, causing cheers from many soldiers and craftsmen in the dock and on the shore.

Looking into the sea from the shore, there are already a full 10 sailing battleships, flying the black dragon flag, fully armed and murderous. Under the leadership of Zheng He, they lined up in the vast South China Sea to train and fight.

Chapter 288 Luzon was invaded?Princess Valega? 【5】

Zheng He's training of the navy, just like Zhao Yun's training of cavalry, has his own unique set, which is exquisite.

Each sailing battleship is equipped with 108 cannons and a crew of 850. The ship can store 35 tons of gunpowder and 120 tons of artillery shells. is extremely high.

If you change the naval admiral of the Qing Dynasty and come here to take a look, you will be frightened and shouted in rebellion.

Because the sail battleship is too elite and too deterrent.

11 such warships have been launched, costing Zhen Baoyu no less than 3000 million taels of silver.

But Zhen Baoyu just smiled, with these things, it's definitely worth it!

Only then did Zhao Yun and Jia Xu know that the lord of the Yushu Linfeng and Pian Pian Jia in front of him is still beside the South China Sea with such a powerful modern fleet!

This fleet, equipped with artillery, is powerful enough to threaten any city in the Qing Dynasty.

When Zheng He and Hu Xueyan saw Baoyu coming, they came to greet him together, and met with Jia Xu and Zhao Yun.

To Baoyu's surprise, behind Zheng He was a beautiful Southeast Asian girl.

This girl has a tall figure and snow-white skin that are not often seen in Southeast Asian women, but she also inherits the advantages of Southeast Asian beauties with big eyes, long eyelashes, and a slender figure. Wearing a long tropical dress, seeing her a strong exotic style, rushed to her face.

What caught Baoyu's attention was that she had a very noble temperament, she looked extraordinary, and she had the demeanor of a lady in every move, and the priceless pearl agate on her head and body even made Baoyu look up.

"This is?" Baoyu asked.

"Reporting to the lord!" Zheng He hurriedly introduced: "This is the only daughter of King Suleiman of Luzon, Her Royal Highness Princess Valega of Luzon. By coincidence, she just arrived in Hong Kong today and asked my court for help."

He lowered his voice and reported to Baoyu, "We just rescued the princess from the beach an hour before the arrival of the lord. She seems to have escaped from Luzon, and was chased and shelled by the Spaniards, and the entourage was killed. Now, only she was left holding a wooden board and drifted to Hong Kong Island. We rescued her."

"It turned out to be Princess Luzon!" Baoyu was a little surprised and handed over to Valega.

Princess Valega was in a mess, and her clothes were damaged in two places, but it didn't detract from her heroic princess temperament, but there was also lingering sadness and haze between her brows, she bowed to Baoyu and saluted: "I listened to it a long time ago. Said that on Hong Kong Island, there is a big man with a powerful fleet that is enough to compete with the evil Western colonizers across the South China Sea. I just can't imagine that you are so young!"

Baoyu smiled and said modestly, looking at Princess Valega: "I don't know why you are here on my Hong Kong Island, what are you doing?"

Princess Valega smiled sadly and said, "I don't go to the Three Treasures Hall for anything, of course I ask for something. But it's better to have a private meeting with Your Excellency."

Baoyu glanced at Princess Valega's plump breasts and her water-drenched tight dress, and coughed, "Alright. Please, Her Royal Highness, please come to my office building on Hong Kong Island to rest for a while. Snow Ian, send two maids to serve you. In an hour, I will meet with you privately."

Princess Valeja looked down at her attire, and her cheeks were flushed. Although the folk customs in Southeast Asia were more open than those in the mainland, as a princess of a country, she was so embarrassed and wet. Meeting a young adult also made Princess Valeja Very shy.

"Thank you, Lord Baoyu," Princess Valega said softly, "I'll go down first."

The two maids took her to Baoyu's private office building on Hong Kong Island.

"What happened?" Baoyu asked Zheng He and Hu Xueyan.

"Nanyang, something big has happened." Zheng He said solemnly: "I took the fleet and escorted the goods from Guangzhou Thirteen Lines to Luzon twice, and I met this Princess Valega, who has half Han blood. I admire the profound culture of the Han family very much. I can write Tang poetry and Song poetry, and I especially like my Chinese silk, porcelain, tea and other specialties. I have an excellent relationship with our Thirteen Lines, and use her father Suleiman's favor for her to penetrate for us. Luzon gave the green light all the way. But this time, Princess Valega has an amazing message.”

Zheng He frowned and said solemnly: "Sir, in recent months, the situation in the South China Sea has been very complicated. Spain has risen strongly, temporarily defeated the British navy, and landed in Manila. They were very arrogant, they first blocked Manila, and used gunboats. The sea route was blocked, foreign merchant ships were not allowed to enter Luzon, and finally an ultimatum was issued to demand the surrender of King Suleiman of Luzon.”

"Suleiman, the father of Princess Valega?"

"Yes!" Zheng He nodded and said, "Although Suleiman believes in Islam, he admires China very much, and the relationship between the two sides is very good. He received a threatening letter from the Spanish invaders, of course he refused, and immediately ordered the army to prepare for war. "

Hu Xueyan added: "Young Master reminded us before that to inform us of the infiltration of Western colonists, we also secretly sold some of our unused arms to Suleiman to arm Luzon. Luzon was established on the coast of Manila. more than a dozen forts."

"Very good!" Baoyu smiled: "And then what?"

"The result was very bad," Zheng He said helplessly: "The Spanish invaders were too powerful. Although Suleiman fought bloody battles with the Luzon nationals, he was still defeated by the fort group. Suleiman died for his country and was killed by Spain. People were killed by the sea, and more than 6 Luzon troops were wiped out. Spain lost XNUMX warships.”

"Spain invaded Luzon and succeeded?" Baoyu was angry.

"Yes!" Hu Xueyan said angrily, "The Spaniards also lost thousands of people. In their anger, they landed in Manila and began bloody attacks on the hundreds of thousands of Han descendants who immigrated to Nanyang in Luzon. Openly plundering Chinese property."

Zhen Baoyu had a gloomy expression on his face: "How many people, how many ships, and how many guns do they have?"

Chapter 289 Princess Luzon!Baoyu decision!

"This time it is a squadron commanded by Frodo, the Governor of the East of Spain. There are more than 30 Spanish galleons left, including 19 gunboats and 12 troop carriers. A total of 1800 artillery pieces are equipped. There are XNUMX soldiers. Many people."

Zhen Baoyu nodded: "Things are changing very quickly. Western colonists appeared in the South China Sea earlier than we expected, and they even broke through Malacca and got their hands on Luzon."

Luzon is the South China Sea island closest to the mainland. Once captured, Western colonists can use it as a springboard to quickly invade China.

Always stay with me.

Baoyu was very fortunate that he appeared very timely and acted decisively. He occupied Hong Kong Island, established a naval base, built a fleet of sailing battleships that surpassed the times, and recruited Zheng He and other generals, otherwise he would really be blinded now.

"Then after Suleiman died in battle, his only daughter, Princess Valleja, took the plunge, took some loyal servants, took a boat, broke through the siege, and asked China for help." Zheng He whispered: "But the Spaniards Frodo was very shrewd, and immediately sent out pursuers to catch up with Princess Valega's fleet. After a shelling, Princess Valega was annihilated, and only escaped, holding a board and crossing the sea, Lucky to drift to Hong Kong Island."

Zhen Baoyu went to the three-story building to talk with Princess Valega.

Princess Valega's eyes were red, and she knelt down to Baoyu: "Please, Lord Baoyu, send troops as soon as possible to save my Luzon people from fire and water."

Baoyu helped her up, but when she was on a skin-to-skin kiss, she could feel Princess Valega's soft barley and the fragrance full of sunshine, and her heart swayed.

This beautiful princess from Nanyang is also different from the Western Regions style of Princess Xiangxiang, the lady of the Grand View Garden.

When Princess Valega was touched by Baoyu, it was as if she was electrocuted, and she blushed.

She was originally a forthright girl, but as soon as she met Baoyu, she became blue silk, and her heart was like a deer.But Princess Valega is a heroine after all, she quickly suppressed her feelings and said sternly: "The Spanish invaders entered Luzon and began to burn, kill and loot. Laiman's death will definitely cooperate with Duke Baoyu's power to liberate Luzon."

Baoyu smiled slightly.

Liberate Luzon?

What he wants is to annex Luzon.

This Princess Valega has the only bloodline qualification of Suleiman. If she can take over the house, she will have a righteous name in the future and openly annex Luzon.

Luzon is an important archipelago kingdom in the South China Sea.Occupying this place will greatly benefit Baoyu's Longqi Nanyang conquest plan.

"Lu Song, I will definitely help you liberate! I will definitely avenge Suleiman's revenge for you" Bao Yuyi Bo Yuntian nodded firmly.

Princess Valega was moved to tears.

"However," Baoyu said calmly: "You have also seen that the Spanish colonists' fleet is of extraordinary strength. Although my fleet has taken shape, it will take at least three months before I can fight them head-on. It is not too late for a gentleman to take revenge in ten years. , you need to wait for a while before you see the head of the Spanish colonists."

Princess Valega nodded slightly and said, "I understand. The Spaniards are very powerful. We have so many forts, but only six of their ships were destroyed, with one or two thousand casualties. You must be ready to send troops. I can afford to wait a year and a half!"

Between her eyebrows, she said vigorously: "I will also contact the country to launch an uprising, so that the Spaniards can't sleep well and are exhausted."

Baoyu was overjoyed, pulled Princess Valaija to praise her, and by the way put the wind and moon magic into Princess Valaija's body, causing the princess to blush.

"You tease Princess Valega and get 2000 dandy points."

After sending Princess Valaija away, Baoyu called in Zheng He and others to start the arrangement.

"Luzon, we must take it back," Zhen Baoyu said without hesitation, "This is our fleet's first mission. As for Malacca, let's put it aside first, it is estimated that the Western colonists there are more powerful."

"The lord has this kind of artillery technology." Jia Xu looked at the naval factory, constantly making cannons to be equipped on sail battleships, and envy: "With this, what are we afraid of Cossack lancers?"

"No," Baoyu shook his head and said, "It's better to be cautious. How long will the sailing battleships be able to go south to fight?"

Zheng He nodded: "The Portuguese fleet in Malacca has been quickly supported, and its strength is even stronger. Even the British and Dutch fleets do not dare to attack them. But the battle in Luzon, with our current fleet strength, also It needs a fight."

"Isn't it just additional resources?" Baoyu smiled slightly: "I'll call you another naval dock!"

He spent 12 dollars to build a second naval dock next to the deep-water pier on Hong Kong Island. Hu Xueyan sent craftsmen and immediately put into intensive production to manufacture the XNUMXth sail battleship.

The two naval docks, which cost a lot of money and were born in this time that should not have appeared, are shining in the sunshine of the South China Sea, and they are intensively producing fully-armed sailing battleships.

"General Zheng He, within three months, I ask you to capture Manila, retake Luzon, and drive the Spaniards out of the Philippines," Baoyu said sternly: "Luzon will become our springboard and colony for our invasion of the South China Sea. I will dominate there, Build an empire."

Zheng He looked solemn: "Young master has such high expectations and invested huge resources, Zheng He is ashamed. In three months, we will have 20 sailing battleships. No matter how many trump cards the Spaniards have, we will beat them to the sky!"

Baoyu nodded, pointed at Jia Xu and Zhao Yun and said, "I need at least half a month for the naval dock to manufacture at least 500 cannons to support the war zone in the west. I will use it against the Rakshasa Kingdom."

500 cannons is an astronomical figure for the Qing Dynasty, but it is not out of reach for a naval dock where each sailing battleship needs 108 cannons.Two naval docks can produce 300 in just one month.A little borrowing from the artillery fire of the fleets in the past will bring it all together.

Jia Xu smiled and said, "500 cannons are more than enough to deal with XNUMX Cossack cavalry. Is the lord planning to blast the Empress of Rakshasa into the sky with one cannon?"

Chapter 290 Cultivating Lingbo Microsteps!Mrs. Wang Ziteng proposes marriage!

Baoyu smiled and said, "This young master will use a huge cannon to make Yekaterina in the Rakshasa Kingdom, no, no, no."

Several men understood and laughed at each other.

Baoyu coordinated the resources of the two battlefields, one south and one west, and the two sides coordinated and returned to the Xining front line.

He threw the documents that Yongzheng had urged to fight, and threw down a clone to guard him. He took a shot and returned to Jia Mansion.

After half a month, I will fight again!
