Zhu Xiong Ying had been on the battlefield before. Among the 40,000 people who came this time, 7,000 were his old brothers who had followed him to the Fish-Catching Sea.
In terms of loyalty, there was naturally no need to worry.
The army dispersed in an unusually orderly manner.
Night fell.
Zhu Xiongying could only stay in the tent with a lamp lit and a book in his hand as he dozed off.
Zhu Gaochi accompanied Xu Miaojin to the tent.
As soon as he entered, Zhu Xiongying heard footsteps and instantly woke up.
"Why are you guys here?" Zhu Xiong Ying asked suspiciously.
"Big brother, we found more than 30 nests of immigrants from the Shang Dynasty. We've already brought them here.。。”
" It's very difficult to communicate!
Zhu Gaochi hesitated.
"No way?" Zhu Xiong Ying asked suspiciously.
"I'm teaching him now, but I'm afraid there's no way to do it in the short term!”Zhu Gaochi sighed.
Zhu Xiongying shook his head." That won't do. We're pressed for time. We've already wasted half a year at sea. It's already the 21st year of Hongwu's reign. It's almost August!"”
"We still need eight months to return. Let them forge cities during the day and teach them our language at night.”
"Oh right, you have to ensure that everyone has food!”
"Take these three maps and go find their priest. If you know anyone, bring a team and find this thing!”
Zhu Xiongying drew the leaves and shapes of the potatoes, corn cobs, and sweet potatoes one by one. Although his drawing skills were not good, it should not be a problem to distinguish them.
Words and language were hindered, but painting was definitely not hindered at all.
As soon as Zhu Xiongying finished speaking, Zhu Gaochi walked out with the three pieces of paper Zhu Xiongying had given him. He was prepared to find the survivors of the Shang Dynasty that Zhu Xiongying had mentioned and ask them about it.
In the tent, Zhu Xiongying looked at Xu Miaojin and said,""What's wrong? Do you have something to say?"
"Are we going back?"
Xu Miaojin suddenly said.
Zhu Xiongying said doubtfully," Of course we have to go back. If we want to develop this place, it will take three to four hundred years. How can it compare to the Ming Dynasty?"”
"Who said that we're not going back?”Zhu Xiong Ying's eyes narrowed as he suddenly realized the seriousness of the matter.
If such rumors spread in the army, then these soldiers would mutiny.
Their wives and children were all in the capital, and Xu Miaojin was the only woman in the camp.
These soldiers had been holding it in for a long time. Would they agree to the sudden news of not going home?
Never underestimate the strong will of the Chinese to die in their own homes, especially at this time.
Xu Miaojin said softly,"That…"。”
"It's okay, we have plenty of time. I promised Grandpa that I would return in four years. Putting aside the time needed for the voyage, we can stay here for another two years!”
Zhu Xiong Ying sighed slightly. He had to return. The purpose of going out to sea this time was to find crops so that the people of Great Ming would no longer have to suffer from hunger.
Xu Miaojin stood rooted to the ground, her hands fiddling with the corner of her clothes.
"What's wrong? Do you have something to say?" Zhu Xiongying stretched and yawned.
Xu Miaojin gritted her teeth and stared at Zhu Xiongying."If we go back, won't you and I have no chance? The hierarchy of rites and music would forever be bound!”
"No chance? "Impossible, how can there be no chance? I will get Imperial Grandfather to agree. It's the middle of the night. Alright, go back to sleep."”
Zhu Xiongying waved his hand, signaling Xu Miaojin to leave quickly.
"Oh, then I'll go back!" Xu Miaojin turned around and left the tent.
Zhu Xiongying was about to get up and lie down on the wooden bed for a while, but before he could do anything, a Jinyiwei rushed in and said,"Your Highness, Your Highness!"
"What's wrong? What's the matter? Why are you panicking?”
Zhu Xiongying was thinking about how to get the old man to agree. After all, there was a huge difference in seniority between him and Xu Miaojin.
He was frustrated, but he couldn't really not go back.
Although this new continent was good, in comparison, he was far from being able to be compared to Da Ming. The two were not on the same level at all.
The scouts that Zhu Xiong Ying had sent out had captured more than 30 tribes of various sizes. They had less than 40,000 to 50,000 people. On average, each tribe only had about 1,000 people.
And how many people existed in the entire East Victory Divine Continent?
"The soldiers have clashed with the survivors of the Shang Dynasty. After killing three survivors of the Shang Dynasty, these survivors of the Shang Dynasty had become very afraid and were even resisting!”
The Embroidered Uniform Guards quickly said.
As soon as they landed, Zhu Xiongying said that they had to treat these survivors of the Shang Dynasty like the people of the Ming Dynasty. They were to treat them equally and were not allowed to burn, kill, or rob.
The main reason why he had captured these survivors of the Shang Dynasty was because Zhu Xiong Ying needed to understand this place and find what he wanted.
Wang Hua transformed some of the survivors of the Shang Dynasty and quickly turned all the survivors of the Shang Dynasty in the East Victory Divine Continent into true citizens of the Celestial Dynasty.
Regardless of whether these Native Americans were survivors of the Shang Dynasty or not, just from the fact that they worshipped the dragon totem…
As the emperor, if he wanted to develop this place, he naturally couldn't carry out the same kind of ethnic extermination policy as the bandits of the Western Ox Continent.
Hurriedly rushing out of the tent, Zhu Xiong Ying looked at the commander of the army, the Left Commander of the Right Army of the Five Armies Governor's Office, Feng Cheng. This person did have some background.
He was Feng Guoyong's son and Feng Sheng's nephew. His father had made many military achievements in the old man's army, but Feng Guoyong died early, so the title went to Feng Sheng.
Feng Cheng was unable to inherit the title, but he had the glory of his ancestors. He also had an uncle who held power in the Five Armies Governor's Office. Feng Cheng followed Fu Youde, Mu Ying, and Lan Yu to pacify Yunnan. He had outstanding military achievements and was promoted to the Right Commander of the Right Army of the Five Armies Governor's Office.
The old man had asked Zhu Xiong Ying to teach Feng Sheng a lesson, so he naturally had to reward him with a date to eat. He named Feng Cheng as the general and went out to sea with Zhu Xiong Ying.
