"Your Highness will get off the boat here, and we will chase him." Zhou Yi put down the telescope and said to Zhao Xu.
This pursuit may take a lot of time.
Moreover, the sea distance from Malacca to Tianzhu is more than 2,500 kilometers.
This area is very empty, and there is not even a small island where you can take a short rest.
It will be even more dangerous if you encounter extreme weather such as storms during the pursuit.
"Okay." Zhao Xu thought for a moment and felt that there was really no need to take risks in chasing the remaining enemies, so he agreed to Zhou Yi.
Not long after, the Jinghai docked at the port that was already controlled by the Qinglong Army and the Suzaku Army, and Zhao Xu got off the ship.
Zhou Yi commanded the sail battleship towed by the steamship and headed west.
"Your Highness." Zhou Yi left. At this time, Qinshan and Guantong, who learned of Zhao Xu's arrival, came over and gave Zhao Xu a military salute.
Zhao Xu returned the military salute, glanced at the Xitu soldiers squatting on the ground, holding their heads, and said with a smile, "You have caught a lot of white pigs."
He deliberately used the insulting title "white-skinned pig".
This group of Western natives relied on their guns and artillery to bully other ethnic groups in the world for more than three hundred years.
Not only did he not feel any guilt for being bullied for a long time, he actually believed that he was God's chosen people, a noble race, and other ethnic groups were his slaves. Nowadays, a trend of white supremacy has been set off in the West.
This information was all confessed by the British prisoners in Nanzhanzhou.
Moreover, after arriving in the East, they even called the overseas Dasong people pigs, and started a Yellow Peril theory against Dasong.
As a means of retaliating with tooth, he naturally wanted to retaliate and make the people of Dasong despise these bandits.
"No, I thought they were so brave. I didn't expect them to surrender without a fight. They are not as good as the Beidi people." Guan Tong's tone was full of ridicule.
Qin Shan said: "This has something to do with the fact that they knew they were abandoned and the soldiers were depressed. However, after this battle, the general finally saw that the soldiers of the Western Territory were just average. Even if they were given the same guns and artillery, the general could still win." ”
Zhao Xu showed a satisfied smile and patted the two of them on the shoulders, "That's right. Our officers and soldiers should have such confidence."
In fact, we can get a glimpse from contemporary history. In terms of combat effectiveness, the Chinese clan can be said to be proud of the world.
After all, the expansion from small Yellow River basins to today's huge territory is not just free of charge.
As for being bullied by outsiders, that is when they fall into decline and lose their organizational capabilities.
Once it bottoms out and a great man descends from the sky to reorganize, he will definitely be able to defeat all invading enemies.
However, any ethnic group has advantages and disadvantages.
The Chinese people pay attention to benevolence, justice, etiquette, wisdom, trust, gentleness and humility, so they behave in a gentleman's manner. Therefore, when facing the enemy, they are restrained and do not want to be forced into a certain position and are unwilling to take action easily.
The Westerners, on the other hand, are just the opposite. They are really villains. They have no regard for propriety, justice and shame. As long as it is beneficial to themselves, they will use any dirty tricks.
In duels, the Chinese ethnic group naturally suffers secret losses.
It is precisely because of this deep understanding that Zhao Xu often said to Liu Fuchang Wei and others, "Behave as a gentleman to a gentleman, and behave as a villain to a villain." ’
He will always stick to this rule.
"By the way, Your Highness, now that Malujia is under our control, are we going to launch an attack on Tianzhu?" Qin Shan was praised by Zhao Xu, laughed for a while, suddenly thought of something, and asked.
"Of course, only when the Western Turks withdraw from Tianzhu can their power be truly eradicated from the Eastern Territory. However, this matter cannot be rushed. According to Zhou Yi, there are still some Stedan troops and indigenous troops remaining in other parts of Yaga. At present, It needs to be leveled.”
After a pause, Zhao Xu continued, "In addition, we need to integrate and stabilize the five Eastern Territory countries and establish a stable logistics supply route. Tianzhu is so vast that it cannot be conquered in a short time."
Qin Shan and Guan Tong nodded after hearing this.
It has been some time since they have been marching south. The soldiers have been fighting continuously and are a little tired. A period of relaxation will also help to rest and reorganize the army.
The three of them were talking when a warship stopped at the port.
A man got off the battleship and walked straight towards Zhao Xu.
This person turned out to be Tsui Hark.
Seeing Xu Hark, Zhao Xu looked surprised and said, "Why are you here?"
Xu Ke saluted Zhao Xu and sighed, "Looking at it like this, the war going south was a great victory, but when the official came this time, he brought some bad news."
"Oh?" Zhao Xu and Qin Shan Guantong looked at each other.
Tsui Hark continued, "When the navy's warships on Moro Island were cruising eastward, they discovered the Sam Kingdom's fleet. This fleet was larger than last time, with a hundred warships. After that, the fleet dispersed Soon, news came from Nanzhanzhou, Ryukyu and other places that unknown warships were discovered, and some merchant ships were attacked. They must have broken into pieces and adopted pirate-style attacks to create trouble for us. "
When Zhao Xu heard this, his brows suddenly wrinkled.
This is the old profession of the Western Turks. In order to defeat Spain, Queen Elizabeth issued a privateering license at that time, allowing the navy to pretend to be pirates and attack Spanish trade routes and warships, thus causing damage to the Spanish economy.
This is what he calls a villain's journey. Now, Sam Kingdom has obviously picked up the ancestral skills.
It is indeed troublesome that one hundred warships do not fight the Dasong Navy head-on, but are scattered on the sea.
If this problem is not solved, Dasong's maritime trade will undoubtedly be affected.
At the same time, he also realized that the reinforcements of the Western Turkic coalition might be coming.
This Sam country is here to take the lead.
"What else?" Xu Ke said that he brought some bad news, and there must be other things.
Xu Ke continued, "There is another problem from the Tusman Empire."
"Tusman?" Zhao Xu frowned even deeper.
"It seems that we have no conflict with Tusman at present?" Guan Tong said, very confused.
Qin Shan was silent, waiting for the next.
"There was no conflict before, but with the style of the Western Turks, there will be conflicts for us even if there is no conflict." Xu Ke said, "I have received news that under the promotion of the Russian Kingdom and Britain, Ulanba, on behalf of the Northern Di, has ceded all the former territory of Ashur and the area centered on the Tianshan Mountains to the Tusman Empire."
"What is the price paid by the Tusman Empire?" Zhao Xu narrowed his eyes and his heart was angry.
The Central Plains is connected to the Western Plains in the west and the Eastern Plains in the east. It can be said that it is the center of the entire continent and has a very important position.
Historically, the land in the Central Plains has always had conflicts with the Western Plains and the Eastern Plains.
This time, the Western Plains dragged the Tusman Empire into the water. They must have felt that they were not strong enough to deal with Dasong and wanted to kill with a borrowed knife.
And the benefits they gave to the Tusman Empire were also borrowed. It can be said that they did not pay anything and found a helper.
"The Tusman Empire army has entered the Tianshan area, and there is another army stationed on the western border of Tianzhu. If there is a change in Tianzhu, they will provide support to the British." Xu Ke looked solemn.
Zhao Xu nodded slowly. Both of these things annoyed him.
But he was not afraid, because the current Dasong was already invincible.
However, these are troubles on the road to Dasong's rise, and they need to be eradicated one by one.
