Chapter 45 New Amsterdam
"Who are you? Why are you attacking us?"
Even this ancient Dutch language that had not yet been completely formed, there was no obstacle to Master Wen. He smiled and said to the proud governor: "I am the national commander of the Ming Dynasty, the commander of the Western fleet, and the governor of the overseas colonies!"
"Da, Daming..." The Dutch governor was stunned.
To be honest, at this time, Westerners have not yet fully understood whether this new continent is the East or whether it is close to China and India.
Now they themselves are all doubting, because they are increasingly discovering that this place is quite far from the legendary East. They have begun to doubt that this place may be a land that has never been discovered by the human world!
But now, suddenly a guy ran out and claimed that he was an official of the Ming Dynasty. This kind of thing made them feel as if they were in a dream and didn't know what to do.
Moreover, the humiliation that was captured just now disappeared.
You must know that being captured by these barbarians is completely different from being captured by the Ming Dynasty!
In this era, even the most arrogant and proud Westerners knew that the Ming Dynasty was the richest country in the world and one of the most powerful countries in the East!
It seems that there is nothing to be accepted by the Ming army...
A dragon flag of Ming Dynasty fluttered in the air in the wind and hung on the top of the city.
"My ancestors went to sea with the will of His Majesty the Emperor. Unfortunately, they lived here, but we finally established a powerful overseas colony here!"
Master Wen was full of nonsense and made up a bizarre story. A huge Ming fleet was attacked in the storm, and a ship fell on this continent.
Because the ships were destroyed and the charts were also lost, they had to stay here, teach the natives, and build powerful tribes.
Peter Minuit was stunned by the story like this, as if he had heard a fantasy.
Of course, Master Wen Da was not making up such a story randomly, don’t forget. The Dutch were not ignorant, they still had some understanding of the Ming Dynasty.
Don’t forget that the Dayuan Island was still occupied by these Dutch devils, and they had to go to Zheng Sanguan to recover. Given the remnants of the Ming Dynasty, they would always have a little bit of land!
"Okay. Your Excellency the Governor of the Ming Dynasty. Since you are an official of the Ming Dynasty, you think you are also a civilized person. I hope that the people we surrender will not be abused and killed!"
Master Wen Datian promised seriously: "Of course not, I promise!"
These Dutch people are of great use, where can they be killed like this?
Although only such a simple port and a small castle have been built on Parrot Island now.
But it seems that the Dutch have a great ambition, and even an engineer named Klein Fredericks is responsible for the planning of the entire city.
They expected to build a pentagonal castle in the center of the new city, which is what they saw. However, it has not been completely completed.
The engineer Fredericks was preparing to measure a 24-foot-wide and 4-foot-deep ditch, enclosing a rectangle 1,600-foot-wide and 2,000-foot-wide from the water's edge.
"The trench is marked outside the ditch, 200 feet inward. A, B, and C should also be marked along all three sides A, B, and C to determine the location of the farmers' housing and gardens there, and the remaining land should be left for more residential homes in the future..."
Outside the castle, on the other side of the ditches, 12 farms are arranged in the grid system separated by the ditches.
Fredericks pointed and told Master Wen about how he planned to build a castle.
He felt a little frustrated. The castle originally planned for the Dutch East India Company, but who knew that it had become all the members of the Ming Dynasty in front of him.
But for the sake of his own and all his compatriots' safety, he had to swallow his anger and serve Wen Fei.
"But I found that the terrain here is not very suitable for this kind of planning!" Master Wen Datian just took a look and swept the planning map to the garbage dump.
Fredericks swallowed his anger: "Yes, I think too. This kind of plan is more suitable for a wide range of open plains and areas..."
While talking, a thousand-time captain ran over and shouted, "Tianshi, the people of Lenape are here!"
"Let them see me!" Wen Fei issued an order lightly, as if he had no concern about the powerful neighbor who was looking through the water.
In recent days, the people of Lenape on the other side have begun to restlessly. Although their adult soldiers received the news and returned to the tribe, they still feel very frightened when facing such a powerful neighbor.
Especially when I heard about the battle process that day, Master Wen Datian summoned a steel warship that was larger than the whales in the sea. Everyone's faces became very ugly.
This Feiyun tribe, which comes from unknown where it is, is so powerful. They have more powerful warriors than the entire Lenape people, exactly the same clothes, and sharp and shiny weapons.
Everything makes the people of Lenape unable to sleep and cannot eat. If they understand Chinese idioms, they will think of a sentence, "How can they allow others to snore on the side of the bed?"
It was the tribe's wizards who made divination several times, asking the tribe's ancestors who were sleeping in this land. But they didn't ask anything, and there was no prompt from their ancestors, which made them feel more and more confused and didn't know what to do!
After waiting for several days, they couldn't help it. Then they sent an envoy to the Parrot Island and asked Master Wen in person what he wanted to do.
This time, the messenger of the Lenape people was their wizard, and the beautiful hunter I had seen last time, seemed to be named Hongyu. He was led all the way to Wen Fei by the soldiers of the Feiyun tribe.
The wizard just glanced at Wen Fei and immediately bowed deeply to the ground. The fierce Hongyu was shocked: "Elder, what are you doing?"
The wizard said respectfully, "Great Spirit, I feel your existence. It is an existence that is more brilliant than the sun and deeper than the earth!"
Hongyu shouted incredibly: "But grandpa, didn't you say that when these Dutch people came?"
"Yes, they are all spirits that are much stronger than our ancestors!" The old wizard admitted: "As for who they are stronger, I can't see either. But I also saw that the great existence in front of me defeated the opponent, so he became even stronger!"
Hongyu almost got angry. When these white ghosts came, the clan had no good feelings for these guys. If the old wizard had not disagreed with the public and thought that their spirits were extremely powerful and could not be offended.
Then the Lenape people will definitely not allow these guys to occupy the land in their clan, even if there is too much money!
However, I didn't expect that my grandfather would abandon these white ghosts so soon, and instead thought that the Feiyun tribe was stronger.
This made Hongyu feel again that perhaps his grandfather is no longer the wise wizard he used to be, he is already confused!
Wen Fei looked at the old wizard for several years. He saw that his body was covered with tattoos, even his face was no exception, with almost dense thorns covered with various patterns. His face was covered with red paint, and his hair was quite trendy.
To be precise, it is like a cockscomb. It can only be seen in some American movies, and usually only some sluts will keep this kind of moxie dry head.
Of course it is not Xiao Bei's modified hairstyle, but the exaggerated one of his master.
These dresses and decorations make this old wizard look very non-mainstream in the eyes of Master Wen Da.
He smiled slightly and said, "Witch, do you know where I came from? In fact, in the long-standing era, we all lived on the other side of the sea..."
The old wizard actually nodded and said, "The songs circulated in our clan mentioned that we climb mountains and wading in the water and come to this home. This is our home, the place where our ancestors sleep forever!"
Wen Fei smiled and said, "Yes, this is the place where your ancestors sleep forever. But you will soon no longer be the owners of this land..."
"What did you say..." The fierce beauty obviously misunderstood something and was furious to take action. However, she was immediately pressed on her neck by seven or eight heavy swords.
Wen Fei waved his hand and signaled to let him go. He smiled and said, "You stupid people don't understand yet. You are leading the wolf into the house. These white ghosts are all greedy devils who come out of hell. They carry plagues, disasters, wars, and famines wherever they go!"
The old wizard said lightly: "I don't know what you said. I only believe in my eyes!"
"Is that so? You only believe in your eyes? Then I will let your eyes see... Tonight, you will see it. Go back. Lenape people!" Wen Fei sneered.
"Tianshi, really let them go?" Tiehai was a little unwilling to accept it.
Wen Fei sneered: "Since they dare to come, they will definitely have some support. What's the use of killing them two young and old? Don't worry, after watching the movie tonight... they will be obedient!"
"Grandpa," Hongyu asked unwillingly: "Can we really not deal with that Feiyun tribe?"
"No! We are not opponents."
"But shouldn't we, Lenape, be brave and fearless? We won't be afraid of any enemies!" Hongyu said again.
"Hongyu, although you can do it, you are a woman, not a warrior. So I can forgive you for saying such stupid things. But you have to remember that a real warrior will understand what stupidity is and what real courage is!"
