Two days later, in the port of Manila, two Spanish soldiers carrying matchlock guns showed off one’s military strength and walked past the port. Along the way, they saw ragged Chinese workers under the supervision of the local indigenous people. The two soldiers burst into laughter after the cargo was carried on the ship.

“Shit, these Western Indian monkeys can only do a good job as a supervisor. Without these yellow-skinned monkeys from the Ming country, our Manila would really not be able to be easily established. Erji, it seems that there are more and more cargo ships coming from America.”

After a smile, a soldier glanced at the many ships anchored in the port with a thoughtful expression on his face. The largest of those ships is the Galen, with a length of fifty-sixty meters and a displacement of five-six hundred tons. It is the most important troop and cargo ship in Spain in this era.

Of course, there are many other small sea ships besides Galen.

Nine years ago, in 1571, Liguez led his troops to visit Manila and built castles, forts and docks in the vicinity. It has become a new Spanish colony.

In the past these years, the work of constructing various buildings, coolies certainly will not be Spanish soldiers or merchants, they are all natives and Nanyang Chinese captured from nearby places.

What makes all the colonists up and down in Spain speechless is that the local indigenous people, those black and thin monkeys, really will not do it, they will not do it by holding them back, they are delicious and lazy. It’s a bad habit, those guys are no better than the Africans.

Only the Chinese who are caught from all over Nanyang can be regarded as a kind of civilized people. They are familiar with all kinds of production and life skills. As long as they stutter, they can do whatever they want, and they have strong learning ability. .

Governor Riguez’s favorite is the Chinese, but due to the consideration of the ruling level, when Riguez manages Chinese workers, he has mixed with many local indigenous people.

Obviously, this is to make two people of different races face each other.

The fact is indeed the case. Those local natives who are lazy and can’t do anything are extremely jealous and greedy for the industrious and kind Chinese workers who can create all kinds of wealth with their hands. In just a few years, the Spanish colonists themselves On the contrary, they didn’t have much hatred with the robbed Chinese workers, but the two different races were completely opposed.

With the words of the soldier, the soldier called Serge also sighed helplessly, “Those damn British men are becoming more and more rampant in the Atlantic. The empire should fiercely crack down on those pirates and let them I know that the majesty of the empire cannot be provoked. Jose, you said these Ming people are so easy to use. Why don’t you go to Ming country to open up a new colony, and there is no need for us to look for Ming people on the West Indies.” /p>

Spain colonizes the world. The most famous gold and silver ship, in fact, has a route that has always taken the Atlantic Ocean. From China and the United States from the Atlantic Ocean back to China, the road is close.

But with the rise of the United Kingdom, the navy and pirates continued to rob Spanish gold ships. These years, it is the reason why the treasure fleet often changes to Manila and the Suez Canal.

In this case, the number of ships docked in Manila for rest and recuperation has gradually increased, and the status of Manila has also been continuously improved.

Like the British colonizing the Americas, the main force to go to the Americas was the poor domestic and the bottom of society. The prisoners who colonized Australia were basically different. Portugal and Spain colonized the world. They were often summoned by the king. The Imperial Family fleet going out.

In this period, Spain, under the leadership of Philip II, was the most prosperous era of military power. The victory of wars caused the Habsburg dynasty to almost dominate Europe. Spain from top to bottom Under the circumstances, the morale of the army is also considered small Peak.

In Spain now, no one knows that the British, who can only be regarded as pirates in their eyes, will completely defeat Spain’s invincible fleet in eight years and become a new power.

According to Serge’s words, Jose said with a smile, “I also heard that the country is a paradise of silk and porcelain, as well as tea, but why doesn’t the Governor occupy the country? How do you know? I only know that the traitors of Portugal several decades ago tried to attack Ming and were taught by fiercely.”

Portugal split from Spain, even if things have passed for hundreds of years, but in this big During the nautical era, as one of Spain’s biggest competitors, Spain also had a lot of hostility and contempt for that side.

While the two soldiers were walking around and chatting, Jose suddenly stopped and looked towards the northern sea. Under his gaze, at the end of the sea, there was a white ship just like the sea. Like the palace, rushing towards the port at an incredible speed.

In this era, the Galen ship that crosses all the oceans in Spain has a speed of four or five knots, but the white sea palace in Jose’s eyes is at least several times that of the Galen ship.

When the ship really rushed into the port at a thundering speed, its huge and gorgeous appearance shocked everyone even more.

Don’t say Jose is stuck, Serge and all the people who are coming and going and working at the port are all stuck, not knowing what to do.

When the ship arrived at the side of a Galen hull, did you compare it head-on? Whether it is an Eastern or Westerner, or a native of Manila, no matter how the aesthetic difference is, you can tell at a glance that this is definitely the side of the short, poor, rich and handsome.

The snow-white ships are not only large, they are almost twice the length and width of the Galen ships. The architectural pattern is even more the difference between a palace and a thatched house.

Waiting for Zhang Shiliang, Tong Jian, Tian Yi, He Zhong, and Hai Rui and the others to stand above the third deck, Jose, who was in a daze on the pier, let out a scream of horror, “Ming Ren , It’s Mingren, the enemy attacked~”

He was a soldier, patrolling in a state of alert, until the ship broke into the port and saw the silhouette, did he realize that it was an enemy attack?

It’s not that Jose is too stupid. Built in the 1980s and 1990s, the most luxurious Peak private yacht suddenly appeared on the sea in 1580. For the indigenous people of this era, the visual impact Too shocking and too exaggerated.

It is definitely a shock beyond the imagination of countless people in this era.

Just as Jose exclaimed, on the 3rd floor deck of the yacht, Tong Jiancai laughed and spread his arms, “Nanyang, I’m coming!”

Tian Yi, the sunflower court Eunuch stared at the galen boats in the harbor with blazing eyes, “Immortal Monarch, are these possibly the red and white gold and silver ships? So many?”

Big At a glance, the tallest and mighty Galen ship has more than ten ships in this port. Don’t underestimate this scale. Thirty years ago, Spain had only 17 Galen ships. By the end of the 16th century, there were only more than fifty ships. .

If the Atlantic route were not for the British sneak attack frequently, there would only be a smaller fleet of ships going to and from Manila.

Tong Jian laughed again, “It should be, it’s a coincidence that I came too early, maybe I can make a fortune this time, haha~”

The big yacht sails thirteen- The fourteen festival is the norm, equivalent to one hour thirteen-fourteen nautical miles, and running around day and night is OK, while Hainan is only five-six hundred nautical miles away from Manila.
