In early January, more than two months have passed with the visit of Dongpu envoy.

A merchant fleet was sailing towards the coastline along the sea breeze.

The warm sunshine shines on the sea. The sailors who have been sailing on the sea for many years are standing on the deck with a comfortable face, looking at the continent that is looming not far away.

The sea breeze blew and the flag whirled.

The envoys appointed by Chen Yanchuan returned with the goodwill of the Ming court after staying in Luzon for more than half a month.

A fleet of ships from the far sea was also returned with them.

For security reasons, the fleet crossed the Babuyan Strait directly and the Babuyan Islands.

The Ming army Navy headquarters and Fubo towns were dispatched to escort warships along the way.

In order not to stimulate the Nguyen regime in Guangnan, after leaving the Luzon Islands, Li ordered the withdrawal.

The Fubo Town Navy's several large bird boats escorted them for more than half a month before leaving.

The Far Sea Merchant fleet did not retreat because it lost the escort of the Ming army.

Since Minghai formed an armed merchant fleet, Yuanhai and other seas have spent huge sums of money to buy second-hand artillery from Minghai.

Now this long-sea merchant fleet has a total of six Dafu treasure ships, each carrying eight artillery and a squad of medron gunners.

If you encounter pirates on the Nanyang Sea, these firearms will be enough to let the pirates in the Nanyang Sea go around.

Of course, if there are really pirates who are blind to rob, the merchants in the sea will not be timid.

After all, the treasure ship also carries more than 300 mesh guns and twenty Flang machine cannons.

As the way, no matter what force at the sea was, it did not stop the Sihai merchant fleet. Even a few pirates left after seeing the Ming flag and Sihai merchant flags flying on the merchant ship.

In more than a month, they passed through the South China Sea and arrived in Annan.

"Sir, this time I will live up to my mission, so Lord Chen can rest assured." An envoy looked at the looming coast in the distance and said excitedly.

Chen Ande nodded, quietly went out from Dongpu, and ran to Luzon bypassing the long distance of the sea. Now he has returned to Dongpu with the promises and assistance of the Luzon court. It has been more than three months since he went back and forth.

Chen Ande declined Liu Yu's attempt to stay and resolutely returned to Annan, although the situation in Luzon was more stable.

But for an envoy who had been traveling around the world for most of his life, he would rather return to Annan in person and bring the Ming court's aid back to Dongpu.

More than 20 years ago, he traveled to Europe and begged for assistance from the West. He traveled to Europe for several years but returned in vain. Yongli, who had been struggling to support in Yunnan, did not wait for assistance from Europe until his death.

Today, he, who is already over 60 years old, also went to Luzon with the hope of a group of Ming people to meet Liu Yu.

However, this Zhongyong Marquis of the Ming Dynasty, who was in his twenties, did not disappoint the expectations of the Annanming people.

Looking at the getting closer and closer Annan land, Chen Ande's already cold body surged with blood.

"Mr. Chen, we have arrived at the Annan boundary." A long-sea businessman walked to the old man and spoke.

"Yes." Chen Ande nodded.

This time I went to Annan, the Ming court in Luzon was interested in contacting the Ming people who were in exile in Annan. At the same time, the Ming court also hoped to trade with the Ruan Zhu regime in Guangnan.

Before, when Chen Shangchuan sent an envoy to come, he must have secretly carried the Nguyen Phu on his back.

Liu Yu thought about it and said that instead of secretly helping the people of Annanming, it would be better to discuss with Master Ruan generously and communicate with each other.

Since Vietnam destroyed Champa, the decline of Khmer Empire has become the Zhenla Kingdom. However, since there were still three Champa chieftain regimes in the ancient Champa area, the Li Dynasty in Vietnam did not choose to annex the Zhenla Kingdom directly. Instead, it made Zhenla a vassal state of Vietnam by making the Zhenla tribute. Later, after the Li Zhongxing Dynasty, the Guangnan Ruo Lord appeared, and occupied Guangnan, Hue and other places as barriers, and then replaced the Li Zhongxing Dynasty and became the sect leader of Zhenla. In order to expand, the Ruo Lords of all dynasties sent troops to annex the land and expanded their military strength.

Establish military and political institutions such as Fu'anying, Pingkangying, and Pingshunying on the occupied land

The fertile land of Shui Zhenla has been coveted by Lord Ruan, but the Ming army fled to Guangnan, but the fifth generation of Lord Ruan Ruan Phu was given a chance to the brink of. Lord Ruan Phu generously incorporated these Ming armed forces and deliberately placed them on the realm of Zhenla, intending to use the Ming people's hands to take Dongpu, Luye and other places from Zhenla.

The fleet separated shortly after arriving in southern Vietnam. The Far Sea fleet took Liu Yu's letters to Nguyen Phu's brink and the purpose of trading to Guangnan.

Envoys Chen Ande and others returned to Dongpu with the Ming court's assistance to the exiled Ming people in Annan.

This time, the Luzon Ming court also invested a lot.

There were more than 100 old-fashioned mesh guns collected from the warehouse, twenty six-pound Flang machine cannons, more than 100 armor and other armor items, as well as ten thousand silver circles of Yongli.

Liu Yu thought about it and said that with these firearms and supplies, Chen Shangchuan in Dongpu should be able to stabilize the situation.

After arriving in southern Annan, the long-sea merchant fleet did not stop for much. After unloading the firearms and silver that were given to the Annan Ming people, they directly headed towards Tuoqian Port in the central area along the Vietnam coastline.

After more than half a month of sailing, six long-sea treasure ships finally arrived at the destination of the trip, Tuoyan Port.

The owner of the long-sea merchant ship, Zhao Tiangezheng, looked at the crowded pier not far away with joy.

Various ships entered and exited the harbor, and hundreds of small sampan boats shuttled back and forth between the large ships.

Zhao Tiange, the owner of the long-sea merchant ship, couldn't help but look at the prosperous scene of the port. Although the port in front of him was not as prosperous as Manila, there were also many ships coming and going, and the trade must be quite prosperous.

After thinking about it, if Annan could make trade with Luzon, Yuanhai would probably make huge profits.

Soon, a small sampan boat sailed to the sea near the merchant fleet.

This merchant fleet flying the Luzon Ming flag has long attracted the attention of local officials in Tuoyan Port.

Several officials from Tuoyan Port came on a sampan and asked about the purpose of the Minghai merchant fleet.

During these days, the remnants of the army heading south to Luzon to establish the Ming court had already spread throughout Nanyang.

These Guangnan officials were deeply wary of these four-hailing commercial ships flying the Ming flag.

"According to the order of Lord Liu Yu of the Ming Dynasty in Luzon, the Four Seas Trading went to Guangnan to meet Lord Ruan in order to communicate with him." Zhao Tiange looked at the officials in Guangnan in front of him and said in Cantonese.

Several officials from the local port looked at each other suspiciously.

They naturally understood Chinese. One of the officials stepped forward and glanced at Zhao Tiange, who was dressed neatly and gorgeously.

"It looks like a Tang merchant. If the fleet has no problems after inspection, it can enter the port. If we want to meet Master Ruan, we need to report it. As for the time, I will just wait here." The official from Tuoyan Port spoke.

Then, under Zhao Tiange's enthusiasm, several officials from Tuoyan Port inspected the cargo of the merchant ship.

It is obvious that these officials in Tuoyan Port do not trust Chinese businessmen, or are wary of the Ming court behind Chinese businessmen.
