After a month of organization and gathering, on April 10, in the historical city of Sanbaoyan, Mindanao, outside the city named after Sanbao eunuch Zheng He, all the people on the shores of Morro Bay and the ships on the sea were shocked by a huge fleet.

In the era of sailing ships, the so-called sea caravans usually gathered together to travel, but today there are 35 types of flying scissors gathered together, layered in the bay, and all bows rushed to the east.

The Rome, the frigate seized by Ryukyu, was now walking through the fleet like a general who inspected the army. Whenever the Rome passed by the merchant ship, it could be exchanged for a shocking roar.

The 10,000 Taiping Army had been assembled, and all the food, freshwater supplies were loaded. Xiao Letian even sent a telegram to Prussia, reporting all the details of the Taiping Army to Shi Dakai.

The telegram has not yet been called back, but Xiao Letian knew that if the Wing King knew about it, there were still a group of veterans who worked so hard, he would be so excited that he would cry bitterly.

In the telegram, Xiao Lotte asked King Wing to use the money from the foundation to purchase some top individual equipment in Prussia. The Germans' industrial quality was absolutely good, and then secretly transported it from Berlin to South America. These 10,000 people must be armed to their teeth in the end.

Either don’t do it, and if you want to do it, become the most powerful army in South America.

During the parade at the sea, Xiao Letian didn't say a word. He just stood on the deck in military uniform so that all the veterans could see him.

The two banners behind Xiao Letian are his instructions and advice to the veterans.

"Although the Kingdom of Heaven is dead, the dream of peace has not been broken."

"There are 40,000 miles of mountains and mountains, and this body is China."

Everyone chewed these two sentences to pieces, swallowed them into their stomachs and turned into their own bloodlines. Yes, the kingdom of heaven has perished and there is no possibility of restoring the country, but the dream of establishing a peaceful and prosperous era is still there, and people will work hard later on.

Perhaps the heaven in South America is not like that of Jinling, but it will definitely be better than before, because the dream of a peaceful and prosperous era in everyone's heart is not shattered.

With 40,000 miles of mountain pass, China has reached the horizon, but don’t be afraid that you will go abroad. No matter where you stand, you are China, this body is China. Whatever you present to the world, the world will think that China is like, and men should be self-reliant.

Xiao Letian waved his hand, and the Roman salutes were fired together. The 35 merchant ships were filled with joy. The white sails rose. The sea breeze brought huge kinetic energy. The fleet rushed towards the distant South America.

Tietoutuo and Tang Lei were on the two largest merchant ships respectively. When they passed by Xiao Letian, the Prime Minister of the East China Sea stood at the sight of him and saluted them to see them off. The two men were really useless. Such clean sea breeze blew into the sand.

"Do it well... As expected, I will send you a big gift package this year... and wait for acceptance in South America." Xiao Letian yelled.

"Prime Minister Don't worry... I'm fulfilling my mission..." The voice became farther and farther away, and Xiao Letian never put down his saluting hand.

The security of this expedition is still very high, because the Pacific Ocean is not an important strategic goal of any great power. The United States is now in a difficult period of recovery of the civil war, and its basic national policy is completely isolationism. In the Chinese's words, it is to slept with firewood and taste courage to accumulate industrial strength.

The current focus of interests of the British and French is still on the Atlantic Ocean and Indian Oceans. Australia in the Pacific is just a place for exile to mortals, and its important economic value has not yet been highlighted.

Of course we cannot forget the Russian war bear, but the polar bear is now in the stage of being suppressed by the British navy. Alaska was sold to the United States in 1867 for only $7.2 million.

In the middle of the 10th century, the US dollar was still the real US dollar, completely locked in with the price of gold. The exchange ratio of one or two silver to the US dollar was about 2.5, which means that this transaction was only used, 2.88 million silver.

This is a very suitable transaction. The market price of three million taels of silver. To be honest, the giant merchants in Jiangnan can all get together, but it's a pity that they don't sell it to individuals.

But Xiao Letian is an exception. As an important Asian partner with close ties to the United States, he is ready to purchase some permanent land property rights for hundreds of thousands of taels of silver.

I probably recalled the best forests and the location of the mining area in Alaska. Xiao Lotte's envoy signed countless permanent land property transaction agreements with the US government. We should not be sovereignty from the United States, but the permanent use rights of these lands belong to ours.

Lifeless, definitely lifeless agreement. I want to ask why the transaction went so smoothly, because in real history, the United States’ purchase of Alaska was almost driven by Secretary of State Seward.

At that time, the United States was in a mess and needed money everywhere. All the minerals in Alaska were not discovered at that time. Moreover, it was difficult to transport wood in the cold zone. Apart from salvaging some good seafood and providing some precious fur transactions on land, almost nothing was available.

At that time, people called Seward a fool and Alaska Seward's refrigerator. This kind of ridiculous joke was spread throughout the United States. Everyone thought that the United States suffered a great loss. Now Xiao Letian wants to share Seward's stupid idea, how could anyone stop him in China?

So even though Seward was a little worried, he was unable to stop Xiao Letian from swallowing excellent harbor land, forests and mountains.

In the end, no one knew how much land Xiao Letian had eaten. However, it was easy for Xiao Letian to eat 200,000 to 300,000 square kilometers of land.

In addition to using barren land to cash in, the Russians lost Alaska, and the main reason was that they were afraid that Britain would launch an attack from the Pacific Ocean. During the Crimean War that year, Britain almost swept across all Russian ports in the Far East.

Alaska is too far away, and the Russians cannot hold on to it at all, so selling it to the United States is also a helpless choice.

The Russian navy is now huddling in Vladivostok, with a total of six or seven warships. They enslaved Chinese laborers to carefully build permanent fortresses. Without more than ten years of hard work, their Far East Navy would not be able to be in a climate.

Sometimes Xiao Letian can also feel God’s favor for him. The time for him to travel through time was really great. In the past few decades between the two industrial revolutions, it was really the last opportunity for the backward nation to make efforts. He jumped on the last bus and wanted to wait for another opportunity to get on the bus, but he really had to wait until after World War II.

Apart from the biggest threat factor of the expeditionary force of the Western powers, the only thing left is natural disasters and man-made disasters. No need to consider man-made disasters, they are veterans who have been through hard days. They will definitely cherish the opportunity to be a human being, and there will be neither internal or external chaos.

As for natural disasters, there is no need to worry too much, because the route Xiao Letian chose for the fleet should be the safest crossing of the Pacific in the Sailing Age.

Note: The fourth update is now. I am so awesome. It seems that I will stop at the fourth update today.
