The sun never sets in America

Chapter 58 Journey to the Far East 3
In the vast Pacific Ocean, a group of closely connected merchant ships are chopping through the waves, sailing on the rough sea...

The waves hit the bow of the ship, and the sailboat's head tilted up, then pressed down again, and continued to move forward, like a warrior fighting against nature, always in the middle of a battle.

squeak... squeak...

In the blue sky, a row of seagulls flew over the fleet.

Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa...

Below the sea surface, a large school of migrating fish is heading towards the depths of the Western Pacific...

The dense shoal of fish even turned a sea area black, and behind the fish shoal were a large number of predators... Various whales, dolphins, and even seals put aside their usual grievances with each other and fought desperately They search for the fattest prey among the fish, and then swallow the prey in one gulp.

The entire hunting process may even last several days to ensure that when food is scarce, they have enough fat in their bodies to survive the most difficult days in the future.

Just when a seal was enjoying its meal, a shark bit it hard on the back. In an instant, the blood stained the entire sea area. No matter how hard the seal struggled, it was of no avail. Finally, it was killed by several other seals. Great white sharks, sharing food together... The predator just now has become the prey now. Dominating and being dominated is often just a matter of thoughts.

Maybe even the seal himself didn't expect that instead of eating so many delicious big fish, he would eat himself instead.

But this seal forgot one thing. In the eyes of these great white sharks, isn't it itself a prey? Moreover, his prey is large enough and has obviously more fat and oil than those fish. What's more, the target is also bigger. Don't choose it. Who to choose? ?
"All things are mutually reinforcing and mutually restraining... The ancients have never deceived me!!" Hu Junding stood on the deck, looking at the scene where the seal was cut into pieces. He couldn't help but feel it, with a look of shock on his face. Although he had read about it on weekdays, After all, I have never seen such a situation with my own eyes. Seeing such a thrilling and cruel scene at close range was an education for Hu Junding! !
"Sir Hu, in another hour, we will almost reach the Sandwich Islands." Wan Fang walked to the deck, stood behind Hu Junding and reminded, "According to the plan given to us by the ruling lord at the beginning, should we go with that Contact with the Kingdom of Hawaii?" Wan Fang then asked Hu Junding whether he was in contact with the Kingdom of Hawaii. The so-called contact actually meant the establishment of diplomatic relations.

"Contact?" Hu Junding turned around, looked at Wan Fang and thought for a moment, "Contact, we must contact, and we must take advantage of the opportunity to gain some benefits." Hu Junding replied to Wan Fang in high spirits.

"Benefits, what benefits?" Wan Fang asked Hu Junding closely.

"How do you feel during our journey?" Hu Junding did not rush to answer Wan Fang's question, but asked Wan Fang in return.

"How do you feel?" After hearing this, Wan Fang showed an expression of recall and thinking on his face. He kept comparing what happened along the way with the sea areas he passed through. "I think it is feasible to take the Sandwich Islands route." ...No slower than walking from the continental shelf." Wan Fang thought for a while, and then told Hu Junding the answer he had thought about in his heart.

"Yes, that's it!!" After hearing this, Hu Junding immediately expressed his approval of Wan Fang's answer just now, "That's what I think. According to the current situation that this route has not been paid attention to by other countries, we will completely A transit base for immigrants can be set up in the Sandwich Islands, that is, the Kingdom of Hawaii, as a place for future immigrants to rest and recuperate... With the addition of several places near the Far East, this route can be fixed and used as a place for future immigrants from the Far East. A fixed route..." Hu Junding replied to Wan Fang happily, becoming more and more energetic as he spoke. In his opinion, this is completely a feasible method, and it is even the route that is currently the most beneficial to Liu Jiabao.

After all, if you take those old routes, you will inevitably be constrained by the countries along the route. One or two are fine, but if there are too many, once a dispute is caused by a certain relief in the middle, Liujiabao will try to put out the fire, but it will be too late, and it may even lead to The failure of the entire immigration process has caused unnecessary losses to the huge investment in the immigration plan...

"What do you mean?" After listening, Wan Fang somewhat understood what Hu Junding meant, "Find a large island in the Sandwich Islands as a transit point for immigrants." Wan Fang tentatively said to Hu Junding. After finishing speaking, He himself was a little unbelievable. Isn't this so-called immigration transit point just colonization and the expansion of territory?

Are they really here to immigrate? ?
Although Wan Fang was a little puzzled, he quickly became energetic and his eyes seemed to light up when he looked at Hu Junding.

Isn't that what he wants?
Developing a colony for Liujiabao has been his dream since he was a boy. "Is it possible that it was realized so quickly?" Wan Fang asked himself in disbelief.

"That's right, to be precise, it's a purchase. It's to buy from the Kingdom of Hawaii an island in the archipelago that is suitable for immigrants to live in." Hu Junding explained to Wan Fang with a smile, "I learned about the Sandwich Islands from Harlem. In this country, they are basically still the same as the indigenous people. They just bought some firearms from the early British merchant ships, but they still have no way to resist us..." After Hu Junding told Wan Fang about the situation in the Kingdom of Hawaii, Looking at a dozen merchant ships with cannons wrapped in gun jackets, there was a hint of ambition in their eyes.

"Master Hu, but this requires the support of the British businessman Harlem." After hearing what Hu Junding said, Wan Fang's expression suddenly changed, and then he said to Hu Junding, "What's more, will the native Hawaiians agree?" Wan Fang was a little confused. I couldn't believe what they might do this time, and then continued to ask Hu Junding with some anxiety.

"Whether they agree or not, this is not something that the native Hawaiians can decide." After hearing this, Hu Junding sneered, and then replied ruthlessly to Wan Fang, "What's more, they don't agree, our cannons, our The soldiers will not agree." Hu Junding's face showed a hint of decisiveness and cruelty.

"Isn't it too risky to force a country, even an indigenous country, to rely on people like us?" Wan Fang anxiously persuaded Hu Junding. In his opinion, even if they have more than a dozen merchant ships and artillery, But it is still not a real warship. The most capable people in the entire fleet are the 100 people Liu Peng sent to protect them at the beginning, and the sailors who can shoot. Can these people conquer a country? ?

Wan Fang couldn't believe it.

"Enough, enough!!" After hearing this, Hu Junding said directly to Wan Fang, "In this era, there must be some areas, even some countries, even if you spend tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands, It is difficult for an army to conquer, but for some countries, thousands or even hundreds of people can conquer the country." Hu Junding explained to Wan Fang how colonial empires in the world now colonize.

"Do you know how many troops the Western countries have in all of Africa?" Hu Junding asked Wan Fang.

Wan Fang shook his head at Hu Junding. This really touched his blind spot in knowledge.

"Less than [-], maybe even less, and even if it exceeds [-], the extra part will definitely be a servant army." Hu Junding explained to Wan Fang, "And at this point, the Western colonists almost controlled the entire African continent. Although they have not controlled the inland because of the small number of people on the coast, I believe that sooner or later they will control the entire Africa, even every corner." Hu Junding looked at Wan Fang aggressively and continued, even in his eyes , Wanfang can still see envy, even jealousy.

That's right, Hu Junding was jealous of the Westerners, jealous that they had so many colonies, and many of them were given to them for free. Unlike Liujiapu, they just wanted a California, so they fought several wars with the Mexicans, and so many people died. People will even fight after a while. This is the news Hu Junding got from his friends before setting off.

This news also deeply stimulated Hu Junding. He would not let go of any opportunity that might make Liujiabao powerful. He could not tolerate that what happened in Nanyang would come to Liujiabao again. When it comes to the Chinese in America...the Chinese cannot always let those white devils step on them.

Watching them humiliate themselves, and then watching indifferently as they carve up all the land in the world, and finally, slowly, they are surrounded by white people, and even the last territory, China, can hardly be saved.

This is difficult for Chinese people like Hu Junding to accept.

If you want to change this situation, you must first be strong. The foundation of Liujiabao's future strength will be immigrants and the integration of American Indians. This is what Liu Peng said to officials like them many times in private, and Hu Junding will keep it in mind...

The foundation of immigration lies on the road of immigration, especially the supply and rest places in the middle, which are crucial. Now, it is time to take the first step! !
"Master Hu, will Mr. Harlem agree?" Wan Fang suddenly asked a crucial question, that is, no matter how they want to seek a transit base in Hawaii, they cannot leave the fleet and act alone, even if they want to scare those The native Hawaiians also needed the support of cannons and ships. All of this had to be convinced by one person, and that was Harlem.

"Don't worry, I will take care of this matter." Hu Junding smiled and replied to Wan Fang, as if he did not take this matter seriously at all, "Mr. Harlin will agree, because our victory is his." Victory!!" Hu Junding said meaningfully to Wan Fang.
