Chapter 247
Chapter 247
Chongzhen knew that as long as the Daming coin was the world currency, he could harvest other countries at will.
The English merchant in front of him, Chongzhen patted him on the shoulder.
"Hope we have a good cooperation!"
The English merchant clenched his fists: "Your Majesty, rest assured, since we have agreed to join the Daming Empire Royal Global Trading Company, we will definitely do our duty!" "
"So what should we do now?"
"You will temporarily live in Jingshi for a while, and Song Yingxing and their Daming Technical School will train some sailors first."
"At that time, Xu will send a thousand three-masted merchant ships to the Europa continent!"
"You guys go with them!"
What?
A thousand merchant ships?
That has to wait until the Year of the Monkey?
"Your Majesty, a thousand three-masted merchant ships, I'm afraid there won't be five or even ten years, I'm afraid I can't wait, right?"
"In Jingshi, you can live for half a year!"
"It's October of the eleventh year of Chongzhen."
"It's almost April next year, and you'll be ready to go!"
The English merchants looked sluggish, and a thousand three-masted sailing ships, even if the Dutch Republic, this sea coachman, were to build, it would take about ten years.
The point is the Dutch Republic, where most merchant ships are not huge three-masted sailing ships, but small merchant ships with single and double sails.
Only warships used three-masted sailing ships, and even then, the fleet of the entire Dutch Republic had less than two hundred three-masted galleons.
In addition, among the more than 10,000 merchant ships, there are less than 800 three-masted sailing ships, which can go to sea. In total, there are only a thousand three-masted sailing ships.
The point is that so many three-masted sailing ships were accumulated by the Dutch Republic for thirty years.
The Daming Empire will build a thousand three-masted sailing ships as merchant ships in half a year?
Horrible, terrible!
The English merchant nodded with a blank look: "Your Majesty, then we will leave again next April!" "
"Only now, where should I and my caravan live?"
"Tianjin Wei city, all kinds of infrastructure is very well built, you live in Tianjin Wei for the time being~~!"
"Do you all have money?"
"Yes, yes, each of us has twenty taels of silver, which has been exchanged for Daming coins, which is enough to live until April next year!"
Chongzhen nodded with satisfaction: "Tianjin Wei, there is a special royal restaurant, which was opened by Xuan." "
"This is the Holy Will of Xuan, take the Holy Decree and live directly in it!"
English merchants kept bending and bowing.
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
"Long live His Majesty the Daming Emperor!"
"Congratulations to His Majesty the Emperor!"
Chongzhen got into the carriage and returned to Jingshi with the ministers.
As soon as he returned to Jingshi, Chongzhen rushed to the outskirts of Jingshi.
The soldiers of the Qinglong Battalion on the outskirts of Jingshi were transporting grain, forage, canned food, beer, etc. from the royal grain shop.
"Your Majesty, you are here!"
"We are carrying the required supplies to the wagon!"
"Some grain and jerky, put directly on the horses!"
Chongzhen knew that the Qinglong Battalion belonged to the cavalry, and each soldier was equipped with five war horses.
Although compared to the Takeoff Dragoon, the Green Dragon Battalion Cavalry belongs to the light cavalry.
Each soldier had five horses, two horses on different horses, one carrying armor and weaponry, and the other two carrying grain and forage.
The five corps of the Qinglong Battalion are all light cavalry.
Chongzhen gave each army another two thousand carriages for transporting glazed bottled beer, glazed bottled canned food, with pork, canned beef, canned fruit and canned vegetable pickles.
In addition, cigarettes and matches are placed directly on the war horse.
Only these cans and a portion of the grain and grass were transported by horse-drawn carts. (Read violent novels, just go to Feilu Fiction Network!) )
50,000 people, a total of 250,000 war horses, and 10,000 carriages, set out from the outskirts of Jingshi.
Chongzhen also set off with the army, and Chongzhen sat in a carriage drawn by eight horses.
Passing by Baoding, the Western missionaries who were preaching were stunned by the sight in front of them.
The missionary was a missionary of the Holy Roman Empire, who had only arrived in the Daming Empire half a month ago and was active in the area of Beizhi.
The Daming Empire was very relaxed about preaching, preaching, preaching Buddhism, etc.
The missionaries of the Holy Roman Empire were supposed to come to preach Catholicism.
They watched the cavalry and carriages of the Daming Qinglong Battalion walk by the concrete road, standing on both sides of the road at a loss.
"Terrible, terrible!"
"We, the Holy Roman Empire, can we make so many war horses with all our national efforts?"
The two servants who followed the missionary looked sad.
"Sir, our Holy Roman Empire, if there were so many cavalrymen, would have cleaned up the French Empire and the Kingdom of Sweden and other countries on the continent of Europa!"
"Now our Habsburgs and the Spanish Empire are united, and the rest of the continent of Europa are all our enemies!"
"With so many cavalry, I'm afraid that the rest of the European Continent has long obediently surrendered!"
"We will not be defeated by those countries of the Protestant Alliance!"
"The strength of the Daming Empire far surpasses all the kingdoms of the Europa Continent!"
The missionary was very sad, looking at the powerful Daming Empire, and instantly felt very uncomfortable.
At this time, Chongzhen's letter to the Holy Roman Emperor had been handed over to the Holy Roman Emperor by the governor of the Spanish colonial army who had withdrawn from the treasure island.
Chongzhen sat in the carriage and continued to march, silently calculating in his heart.
Logically, the letter to the Holy Roman Emperor should have been delivered.
The Holy Roman Emperor at this time was Ferdinand III, who had sought peace with the Kingdom of Sweden and the French Empire.
The Holy Roman Emperor, the ruling Germanic nation, at this time the people's livelihood had withered, and many people were too poor to open the pot.
Without the economic support of the Spanish Empire, the entire Holy Roman Empire would now have collapsed economically.
Ferdinand III received Chongzhen's letter, looked at it, and asked the translator on the side to translate it.
"~ Holy Daming Empire, Emperor Chongzhen of the Celestial Empire, a letter to Ferdinand III!" , the interpreter carefully read to Ferdinand III.
"Xu has already formed an expeditionary theater, formed the Holy Daming Empire Expeditionary Fleet and the Holy Daming Expeditionary Force!"
"It is estimated that it will arrive in the Holy Roman Empire in half a year to a year (okay, good), and support the Holy Roman Empire to clean up other countries!"
Ferdinand III was moved to tears.
"Emperor Daming deserves to be our good brother, and they will also come to help us after such a long distance!"
"Immediately set a table of good food and wine for Xuan, look to the east, and show him the sincerest respect!"
.. Secure.
Chongzhen continued to the south with his soldiers and horses, and at this time the expeditionary theater arranged, that is, Li Yan, the governor of the Qiongya Island (Hainan Island) theater, had already recruited 50,000 Daming Salvation Army, 20,000 Daming Expeditionary Army, and 20,000 officers and men of the naval division.
The migration of the people to Qiongya Island and Treasure Island was also completed in the past half a year, which made Chongzhen very gratified.
Of the 20,000 Daming Expeditionary Force, Chongzhen copied one hundred three-masted warships and one hundred three-masted transport ships to form the Holy Daming Expeditionary Fleet.
Among them, 20,000 officers and men of the naval division drove a hundred three-masted warships, and the 20,000 Daming Expeditionary Force rode a hundred three-masted transport ships.
