North America, the Great Ming Dynasty.
Yang Pu hurried into the room.
"Your Majesty, the fleet heading to South America is back!"
Hearing this, Zhu Zhanji suddenly raised his head, revealing a pair of weathered eyes.
"How about it?"
"How is the situation in South America?"
In five years, Zhu Zhanji arrived in North America from the Ming Dynasty, and then began a bloody battle.
Fortunately, on the North American continent, there were only some weak and backward indigenous tribes who were no match for the elite soldiers of the Ming Dynasty. Therefore, it only took Zhu Zhanji more than a year to sweep across the entire North American continent and establish an army. Great tomorrow.
And these indigenous people also became the people of the North American dynasties of the Ming Dynasty.
After all, Zhu Zhanji brought too few Han people, only a few hundred thousand in number, which simply could not meet the requirements of a celestial dynasty.
Therefore, Zhu Zhanji had to make a choice, take the initiative to accept and appease these indigenous people, teach them reading and calligraphy, and teach them Confucian etiquette.
Although this is a troublesome thing, it is always effective.
After sweeping across the North American continent, Zhu Zhanji suspended his offensive and concentrated on development for several years.
The North American dynasties of the Ming Dynasty also took root in the North American continent in the past few years.
They were surprised to find that although this place appeared to be a barbarian land, after truly understanding it, it turned out to be a treasured land!
Whether it is the livable climate or the fertile fields, they feel happy.
And in addition, there are many native high-yielding crops on the North American continent, such as the divine potatoes and sweet potatoes that Zheng He went to sea to find after all the hard work. They are almost everywhere here and have long become the staple food of the indigenous tribes!
It is precisely because of this that Zhu Zhanji is full of energy and vitality, ready to create a tomorrow that will be more prosperous and powerful than the Ming Dynasty in the Central Plains!
After three years of precipitation, the North American dynasty of the Ming Dynasty became more prosperous and powerful, and due to the skyrocketing increase in food, more and more indigenous tribes were attracted to join the Ming Dynasty and voluntarily became subjects of the Ming Dynasty.
Of course, Zhu Zhanji did not forget to send a fleet to South America to spy on intelligence.
After all, the North American continent cannot satisfy his ambitions at all.
Even if he doesn't fight now, sooner or later he will raise his troops and go south to unify the entire American continent!
Yang Pu clapped his hands and ordered someone to fetch a map of Kan.
This "Atlas of America" was given to Zhu Zhanji by Zhu Gaoxu, King of Han Dynasty, before he left.
So when Zhu Zhanji saw this map again, he couldn't help but feel a little distracted for a while, and a picture emerged in his mind.
In these scenes, there is the second uncle Zhu Gaoxu beating him violently for fighting with crickets, the second uncle running thousands of miles and being hit by thousands of arrows to save his life, and the second uncle almost accidentally killing him because of Zhang Fu's death...
The complete break between himself and his second uncle seemed to be due to Zhang Fu's death, right?
Zhu Zhanji was a little stunned, and there was a hint of bitterness in the corner of his mouth.
After five years of fighting overseas, he has long lost his immaturity and become mature, steady, and possessing the bearing of an emperor.
At this moment, recalling the scenes in the past, Zhu Zhanji couldn't help but his eyes turned red.
If it weren't for Zhang Fu, he and his second uncle Zhu Gaoxu might not have reached this point, let alone a fight for the right to inherit the throne.
However, God's will is like this!
Yang Pu noticed Zhu Zhanji's sad look and understood something for a moment.
"Your Majesty, it's all over."
"Well, I just miss Grandpa Huang a little. I wonder how his health is now?"
Hearing this, Yang Pu suddenly smiled.
"Don't worry, Your Majesty."
"Our navy is ready to go to sea and return to the Ming Dynasty!"
"At that time, they will bring back news about His Majesty the Emperor and the Ming Dynasty in the Central Plains!"
Zhu Zhanji nodded when he heard this, and then sighed.
"If possible, I really want to return to the Central Plains with them, even to meet Grandpa Huang!"
"Your Majesty, this..."
"Don't worry, dear, I'm just talking."
Zhu Zhanji smiled bitterly and put an end to this unrealistic idea without waiting for Yang Pu to persuade him.
He, Zhu Zhanji, is now the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty and the backbone of the people of the Ming Dynasty. He must stay here to preside over the overall situation. Naturally, he cannot return with the fleet.
It is precisely because of this that Zhu Zhanji is in such a low mood.
In his entire life, he would never be able to return to the Central Plains to see Grandpa Huang and them again!
After a long silence, Zhu Zhanji finally recovered.
After all, he is Zhu Zhanji, and now he is very aware of the responsibilities on his shoulders.
"Tell me what the situation is in South America."
Yang Pu smiled knowingly and immediately began to explain according to the Kanyu map.
"The specific situation is not much different from what is shown on the map."
"The South American continent is mainly dominated by three political regimes: the Inca Empire, the Aztec Dynasty, and the Mayan tribe. However, they are all relatively backward tribal civilizations. In addition, there are some large and small tribes."
"Among the three major civilizations, the Inca Empire is the most powerful, with the largest territory and the most powerful strength. It can be called the overlord of South America..."
Yang Pu was still explaining the situation in South America continuously, but Zhu Zhanji was a little distracted, staring blankly at the "America Map" in front of him.
After a long time, Yang Pu noticed something strange about His Majesty the Emperor, and couldn't help but said: "Your Majesty, what are you doing..."
"My dear, I have always been unable to understand something!"
"My second uncle Zhu Gaoxu has never been to sea. Why does he know so much about the American continent?"
"The first news about the divine species was that my second uncle mentioned it for the first time at the Conference of All Nations. After that, the emperor vigorously developed the navy, and then asked Zheng He to come to the American continent to look for the so-called God’s seed!”
"In other words, it was not Zheng He who first discovered the American continent, but his second uncle who provided Zheng He with charts and directions, guiding him step by step to discover the American continent!"
"But how is this possible?"
Zhu Zhanji looked at Yang Pu with a blank face, and the latter was also a little stunned.
Looking at the "American Map" in front of him, Yang Pu was so shocked that his scalp went numb!
Because he remembered that Zheng He and others only arrived in North America and did not explore south in order to rush for time. So where did the information on this map come from?
How did the King of Han Zhu Gaoxu know this information?
The monarch and his ministers looked at each other in silence and were speechless for a long time!
Zhu Zhanji felt a little disappointed, and finally shook his head with a wry smile.
"That's it, don't think about it anymore."
"My second uncle is full of mystery. There is no point in pursuing this matter!"
Yang Pu nodded and suppressed the matter in his heart.
"Ai Qing will record this information about South America. After our country stabilizes the situation, we will send troops south to conquer South America!"
"I understand."
Yang Pu nodded and then mentioned something else.
"Your Majesty, the Queen Mother wants to return with the fleet!"
As soon as these words came out, Zhu Zhanji's expression changed drastically.
"Mother, this is..."
"She wants to go back and see the late emperor!"
Hearing this, Zhu Zhanji burst into tears instantly.
"I understand."
