America House, Peninsula Port.
The gongs and drums are noisy, and the bugles are wailing.
In a lively atmosphere, the prince's soldiers, who were not tall enough, were disembarking from the ship in a swaggering manner.
Most of Zhu Cihuan's princes' army were Kyushu warriors, who were actually islanders. The islanders' ability to adapt to the bumps of the waves was obviously better than that of Emperor Zhu's Jiubian boy. After drifting on the sea for more than two months, they were still in high spirits. In order to show the bravery of Kyushu warriors to the American people, this group of dwarf warriors put on armor and carried muskets and spears before disembarking. The leading warrior also held high a yellow dragon flag symbolizing the king.
In the eyes of outsiders, Zhu Cihuan's Wangye Army is quite elite. Seeing the stock refugees who had experienced the pain of the Chongqing Stock Exchange in Shanghai couldn't help but sigh - with the Wangye Army here, their debts seem to be forever. It’s all gone...
However, Wei Zhongcheng, Qi Yuanbi and Yu Daren, who greeted each other with smiles on the dock, were experts, and they could tell at a glance the seriousness of Zhu Cihuan's group of Japanese samurai.
These people are brave enough and should be able to skillfully master weapons such as spears, katana swords, and matchlocks. But organization and discipline are still a bit lacking, and the tactics seem out of date. Compared with Emperor Zhu's Jiubian Boy, it is really far behind... but as long as it is used properly, it is still a rare and good soldier!
The five great kings brought such a group of soldiers from Japan, and it seemed that they were determined to show off their talents in the New World!
He is truly worthy of being a descendant of Emperor Taizu Gao!
Zhu Cihuan also seriously put on the red-bottomed python robe of the Ming Dynasty prince, and hung an embroidered spring knife on his belt. Under the protection of Baoke Zhenghui and a few stronger-looking warriors, he quickly walked out of a Pacific sailing ship. Come down.
This prince also has a physique that is not prone to seasickness, so he did not lose many pounds after crossing the Pacific Ocean. However, his skin was a bit tanned and his beard was a bit long. Coupled with his tall height, he looked a bit like He is a prince who can fight...
"I respectfully invite His Royal Highness Jin An!"
Wei Zhongcheng, Qi Yuanbi and Yu Daren rushed forward to greet the prince as he walked down the gangplank. At the same time, the group of dwarf warriors also cheered together.
"Hehehe! Hehehe! Hehehe..."
Zhu Cihuan was so proud! He has been a prince for so many years, and he has never been as prosperous as he is now... Even though he still has a debt of more than one million taels, and even though he has to pay these "hehehe" dwarves every month The pay was 5,000 taels of silver, and the 5,000 taels had to be borrowed from Yao Daqiao, but the feeling of having elite soldiers in hand and looking around was really intoxicating!
Zhu Cihuan tried his best to imitate Zhu Cixiang's posture, and waved his big hand in an imposing manner: "Without courtesy!"
It's a bit like...
Wei Zhongcheng, Qi Yuanbi and Yu Daren straightened up and took a closer look at Zhu Cihuan - he looked right, except that his skin was darker and his beard was longer, he was almost the same as Emperor Chongzhen!
Judging by his age... he can't be the Three Kings or the Four Kings!
And those two people, like the current sages, rarely look at others with a straight face, that is, they are three smiling tigers, oh, they are three smiling dragons!
After finally confirming that it was Zhu Cihuan, Wei Zhongcheng smiled and asked: "My lord, did you follow the emperor's order to lead your troops to the American Mansion to participate in the war?"
When he asked this question, Zhu Cihuan, who had been so complacent just now, suddenly became frightened.
According to the current rules, when the prince goes out of town, goes on an expedition or goes on a patrol, he can recruit his own guards, and the number can be up to 2,000. But the question is, is Zhu Cihuan going out of town, on an expedition, or on a patrol? neither!
He ran away... and even recruited 2,000 guards to escape. Was he resisting arrest?
Zhu Cihuan quickly looked up and saw the "men in black" from the brigade - these are the Nine-Border Youth Army!
America is a long way away, so we must use elite soldiers! Therefore, the troops transferred to the New World by the Generalissimo's Office include "immigration soldiers"--officers and soldiers who voluntarily drag their families to settle in the New World. They are also units such as the Young Guards, Black Cavalry, and Red Iron Artillery Corps. Some artillery, engineering and other auxiliary units.
Currently in place are four regiments of the Young Guards, a black cavalry regiment, a red iron artillery regiment, an artillery regiment and an engineer regiment. In addition, there was a black cavalry regiment that had arrived early and more than a thousand sailors from the Gulf of America Fleet.
All of them add up to a fighting force of over 20,000!
Therefore, Zhu Cihuan's 2,000 guards alone would not be able to cause any major disturbances.
Zhu Cihuan didn't speak and froze there, and the atmosphere on the pier was a bit unharmonious.
The group of "hehehe" Japanese also saw those young Guards officers and soldiers carrying flintlock guns - if nothing else, they would lose in a head-to-head comparison!
And the guy in his hand is a flintlock gun...
At this moment, Qi Yuanbi suddenly laughed again: "I heard that your Majesty once gave the Supreme Emperor 10 special stocks of the United States. The 10 special stocks can be exchanged for a marquis in the American Palace. The Supreme Emperor must give all 10 stocks. Let the prince come to the New World to kill the enemy and make meritorious deeds, right?"
This is the step!
The special stocks of the United States symbolize the shares in the country of the United States. Whoever has special stocks is one of the masters of the United States... Of course, you can come to the United States to guard and defend it. There is no need to ask for a special order.
And to defend the United States, of course we can recruit some guards in Japan. Otherwise, how can we defend it?
Moreover, the princes of the Ming Dynasty are not trapped now, they can go out of the capital for a walk - Zhu Cixiang doesn't give them much treatment, so naturally he can't trap them.
Therefore, as long as Zhu Cihuan gets those 10 special shares, he will not violate the ban.
There were beads of sweat on Zhu Cihuan's forehead. How could he have the special shares of the United States? Not to mention ten, not even one!
Qi Yuanbi smiled again and said, "Did you forget to bring it with you? Did you forget it in the palace?"
"Yes, yes, yes..." Zhu Cihuan nodded repeatedly, "Forgot, I have a bad memory, you have to trust me!"
Qi Yuanbi smiled and said: "Of course I believe the prince... The prince can write a letter back and ask the people in the palace to send the 10 stocks.
Don’t worry if you lose it. Special stocks in the United States are all registered, and you can replace them if you lose them. "
I have to ask my father again! Zhu Cihuan thought: My father will definitely not ignore death...
"Okay, I will write a letter and ask someone to send you those 10 special stocks."
With the steps, the atmosphere on the pier suddenly comes alive.
Yu Daren, the commander of the American Army who was silent just now, smiled and said: "Your Majesty, since you are leading troops to the American Mansion to participate in the war, then the prince's soldiers must also obey the command of the American Army Admiral."
The discipline of the Ming army is very strict now, and units above the battalion level have not obeyed the orders of their superiors, but this has not happened for many years.
Although Zhu Cihuan is a prince, since he has led troops to the New World to participate in the war, he must obey the command of the admiral!
"Of course......"
As soon as Zhu Cihuan said the words, he felt something was wrong again.
Why did he have to join the war and obey orders... He came to avoid debts, not to fight!
He ran away to America Mansion because he was afraid of being captured by King Lu (in fact, King Lu didn't come to capture him at all)... but even if he was captured by King Lu, he wouldn't die. With a total of 5,000 acres of thin farmland, the annual income is more than 1,000 taels of silver. With this kind of treatment, Zhu Cihong was embarrassed to be too harsh.
So even if Zhu Cihuan was imprisoned in the clan's mansion, it wouldn't be a big deal... Why did he run away then?
And the result of running away is actually going to the battlefield to fight!
This is wrong! Zhu Cihuan thought to himself: If I were willing to go to the battlefield, why would I end up like this? I could have gone to a martial arts school 10 years ago, and now I might even be a famous general...
It was too late for Zhu Cihuan to regret it. He had already crossed the Pacific Ocean, could he still swim back?
So I had to grit my teeth and said: "Okay, I know the rules! Yu joins the army, is it peaceful here in America Mansion?"
"It's not peaceful anymore... The Spanish army has assembled in a valley seven or eight hundred miles south of the American Palace, and will soon be heading north!"
