Chapter 525 Unique scenery

As the saying goes, "Soldiers never get tired of deceit"

Although they are all from the Ming Dynasty, they have already gained a foothold in Ambonna Island. Now they are like local emperors. Do you want the Ming Dynasty to recover?

Therefore, Shi Lang was easy-going on the surface, but he was still wary. The soldiers of the Ming army were smiling and looked at the situation on the island with vigilant eyes.

Once someone wants to attack them, the Ming army soldiers will kill them without hesitation.

However, the soldiers soon discovered that Zhang Jiexu was not malicious, which could be seen from the eyes of the people on the island.

After seeing the fully armed Ming army landing on the island, the Chinese on the island were filled with surprise and kindness, just as if relatives who had not met again for a long time suddenly gathered.

This kind of intimacy cannot be pretended, it is a kind of true feelings.

"Welcome the Ming Navy"

"The Ming army is mighty."

"Long live the Ming Dynasty."

…………

The Chinese on the island gathered on both sides of the road and shouted and applauded, which made Shi Lang and the Ming soldiers feel very warm.

This is the only island that has raised hands to welcome the Ming army since they set out to war, which makes the soldiers feel like they are going home.

Shi Lang and the soldiers also smiled and waved to the Chinese on the island.

Soon everyone came to the island owner's mansion. The island owner's mansion was not as luxurious as the legendary one, and was almost made of wood.

However, the scale is not small, and it is composed of many houses, so it is no problem to accommodate hundreds of people.

There were so many people at once, and there were not enough chairs in the island owner’s mansion, so everyone brought stools from home to let the Ming army sit down.

There are so many people who work hard. As everyone is busy together, all kinds of fruits are soon placed in front of the Ming army soldiers.

There are coconut fruits, bananas, oranges, oranges, sugar cane, ripe corn, watermelon, etc.!

Zhang Jiexu asked Shi Lang to sit in the upper head. He stood beside Shi Lang and smiled at Shi Lang and the Ming soldiers:

"Ming Ming soldiers, welcome to Ambona Island. These are all specialties on our island. Everyone, try it..."

The soldiers looked at the chief general Shi Lang, and saw that Shi Lang did not nod, they did not dare to take action.

After all, it was during the war, and they were the Ming army who came to attack Amponna Island, so they were still worried about fraud.

It’s not that they are worried about the Chinese on the island, they must treat them specially during special periods, and no one can bear the losses suffered by the army.

Only three people died in battle when the Ming army captured Batavia. If the ship capsized on such a small island, Shi Lang's governor would have done the final result.

Zhang Jiexu is also an old world with so many knowledges. How could he not see the psychological thoughts of the Ming army soldiers?

He waved his hand:

"Come, try one of each fruit, I will take the lead."

"Click"

As Zhang Jiexu said that, he picked up a fruit, opened his mouth and bit it in a big mouthful.

Then a group of people came up and took out one of each fruit and ate it in front of the Ming army soldiers.

To be honest, Zhang Jiexu could understand the thoughts of the Ming army soldiers, and he did not complain that Shi Lang did not believe them at all.

This situation happens to anyone, and they dare not joke about the lives of hundreds of soldiers.

"General, we are all the people of Daming who fled from the Ming Dynasty. We live on this deserted island where we are unfamiliar. Seeing you coming is like seeing your relatives at home. Please believe that we are all kind and loyal Ming people..."

Shi Lang smiled slightly, got up and grabbed Zhang Jiexu's arm, and pressed him to sit on the stool beside him.

"Lord Zhang is worried too much. We are all a family. We don't mean that we don't believe you. This is a habit left over from years of war."

Shi Lang said, nodding to the soldiers, and then the soldiers picked up a fruit to eat.

"Cook now, we will treat our relatives from the Ming Dynasty with warmth today."

"Okay, you can eat some fruit first, and the wine and food will be served soon."

Seeing that the Ming army finally believed them, Zhang Jiexu was in a good mood and hurriedly sent a order to make a fire and cook and hold a banquet to entertain the Ming Navy soldiers.

Zhang Jiexu's assistant hurriedly stood up and took dozens of people to prepare food and drinks. Some of the remaining people went to the beach to admire the Ming Dynasty's Iron Armored Battleship.

After Shi Lang ate a banana, he began to observe the staffing configuration on the island and soon discovered a problem.

Since going to the island, Shi Lang has not seen a woman appear or a child. Almost all Chinese men in their thirties are in their thirties.

So Shi Lang stood up and prepared to look around:

"Master Zhang, can you take the governor to enjoy the scenery on the island?"

Zhang Jiexu hurriedly clasped his fists and said:

"It's OK at that time, please follow me!"

The two men stood up and walked out of the island master's mansion. The Ming army soldiers immediately followed. They would not let the governor walk alone, and they had to ensure the governor's safety.

Shi Lang looked back at the hundreds of brothers and smiled:

"There is no need for so many people to follow me, just let Li Qiang lead fifty people to follow me."

"yes"

Li Qiang is Shi Lang's confidant and the captain of his guard team.

Li Qiang agreed and selected fifty guards with good shooting skills and good martial arts skills, followed closely behind Shi Lang and Zhang Jiexu.

Although there were only fifty people, they were fully armed, not only with grenades hanging around their waists, but also four of them carried two mortars.

To be honest, it is not a big problem for these fifty people to eliminate more than a thousand people on the island.

Zhang Jiexu just smiled slightly at this. He could understand the feelings of the Ming army soldiers, and it was their duty to protect the governor.

The group of people walked around the island for two incense sticks before returning to the island owner's mansion.

Shi Lang is not only enjoying the scenery on the island, he just wants to see if there are any women on the island.

As a result, something unexpected happened to Shi Lang. It was really difficult to see women on the island, and he only found three or two.

After sitting down, Shi Lang asked:

"Master Zhang, I'll ask you a presumptuous question, did you not bring your family when you came from the Ming Dynasty?"

Zhang Jiexu shook his head helplessly and smiled bitterly:

"No, at that time we didn't know whether we were dead or alive. Where did we dare to take our family? The women on the island were rescued from the sea by merchant ships."

Zhang Jiexu did not hide it, they really did not bring their families.

After retiring on Ampona Island, I went back to bring people, but found that the village had long been turned into ruins and everyone was slaughtered.

Several women on the island were rescued by shipwrecks at the sea. They lived here after they arrived on the island.

Because there are all young bachelors on the island, who doesn’t want to have a woman?

In order not to let them be harassed, Zhang Jiexu left them beside him to cook and wash clothes.

That's all, Zhang Jiexu did not touch them, and he was also worried that he would eat alone, which would arouse the dissatisfaction of his brothers.

In this way, more than a thousand men and three women lived on the island.

Because of Zhang Jiexu's existence, everyone lived a very peaceful life and occasionally joked with the three women, but none of them would cross the line.

After learning about the situation on the island, Shi Lang secretly gave Zhang Jiexu and the many Chinese people on the island.

As soon as the topic changed, Shi Lang would come to the point. They were originally coming to take down Amponna Island.

If it weren't for the fact that the island was full of Chinese, Shi Lang had forced to recapture Ambonna Island.

"Master Zhang, the Ming Dynasty will definitely include more than 2,000 islands around Java Island into the territory of the Ming Dynasty. I wonder what your plans are?"
