Of course, persisting until the fleet arrives is not a simple task.

There is at least 20,000 miles from Dingyuan Port to Xinbo City. Because the fuel cannot be replenished in the middle, the Ming army fleet can only rely on auxiliary sails to sail, and it will take two months to arrive at the fastest. The British also understand this, so they must solve the Ming army in Xinbo City within two months...

In fact, they started to do it half a month later.

"Yin people?"

Zhang Cheng said with a sneer.

In half a month, the Ming army had established camps here, and formed a defense line with logs and trenches and antlers. They also built simple docks. Two armed merchant ships were parked directly on the docks to provide support, and four armed merchant ships were moored at the mouth of the river to serve as forts. The number of Ming troops landed on the landing increased to more than 300, but they had to face the first thing they had to do was not the British or pirates, but the indigenous people here.

A large number of Indian warriors surrounded them.

"But this doesn't need to be solved by fighting!"

Zhang Cheng said with a smile.

Then he waved his hand and pointed to the mountain of cotton cloth beside him and said to an Indian who came to negotiate, "Give it, this is a gift for you. We are friends rather than enemies. We are here to do business, not white colonists. Please see our skin color. We are the same kind of people, and we are from the kingdom of God in the East."

He has been wandering around all year round, and his skin color is really not much different from that of the Indians?

"The Kingdom of God?"

The Indian messenger said in confusion.

They belong to the Creeks, and this area is a residential area for Creeks. Although it is still in the tribal era, it has become relatively civilized due to the influence of the two colonists in the north and south. Even the weapons in their hands have smoothbore guns. Of course, they are still different from those in the west who start speaking Chinese.

"The Kingdom of God, the Kingdom of God ruled by the Emperor, and your ancestors also came from."

Zhang Cheng said as he stretched out his hand, pointed to the musket on his back and said, "Can you lend me some money?"

The Indians were very happy. Anyway, there were thousands of tribal warriors behind him, so they were not worried that Lin Hao would make a fool. Then they took off the shoddy ancient flintlock rifle from his back. Now all European countries have been replaced with all the rifled rifles produced in the Ming Dynasty. Many of these eliminated junks were used to cheat money from the Indians.

"this?"

Zhang Cheng looked at him contemptuously, then pulled the trigger twenty feet away. The bullet hit a cow that was about to slaughter. The cow wailed in grief and anger, suddenly shook his head and broke the rope, and rushed to the distance violently.

"Rubbish!"

Zhang Cheng said and threw the gun on the ground, then reached out to take the rifled rifle handed over by Lin Hao, aiming at the cow that had run thirty feet away and pulled the trigger without hesitation. With the sound of a gunshot, the Minnie bullet instantly drilled into the bull's head. The running mad cow fell to the ground wailingly. Zhang Cheng took out the bullet and stuffed it into the muzzle as quickly as possible and pushed it to the bottom with a strip. Then he put on a fire hat and fired a second shot, and then the cow was completely speechless.

"I've given it to you!"

He threw the rifled gun at the Indian and said.

"At most three months later, I'll give you another thousand pieces!"

He then added.

The Indian turned around without hesitation and shouted at the warriors who were waiting behind him: "Put down the weapons in his hands, take out our best food, and welcome the brothers from the Kingdom of God."

"Look, it's that simple."

Zhang Cheng turned around and said to the stupid Lin Hao.

The Indians were not fools. In fact, the Creeks were not born. They had even begun to try to form alliance countries in the European way. If these people who were indeed similar to their skin color were to steal their farmland and their homes, then of course they would not agree. But what they wanted was nothing more than a river estuary that they could only use to fish, and they also gave them a large number of gifts, promising them to give them more gifts. Of course, the important thing was to show their strong strength. So why did they use guns to white people?

Soon, under the melancholy eyes of the British behind, some Indians put down their weapons and walked to the Ming army camp to transport the cotton cloth, while others went back to transport food and meat. After Zhang Cheng took out the wine, the two families set up campfires to have fun, while the British left sadly.

Of course, this is just the beginning.

The next group of people who come to visit will be replaced by pirates.

However, at this time, the number of Ming troops increased to 500 people and the number of ships increased to eight. At this time, the Global Company merchant ships in the entire America received orders, and they were all equipped with radios. Although the radios on the ship could not communicate too long distance due to power problems, it was still easy to receive radio signals from bases such as Kingsoft and Dingyuan Port, including some merchant ships sailing in the central Atlantic Ocean, received the call.

So the unlucky pirates suffered another crushing defeat.

Although only two of these merchant ships are made of steel, the firepower equivalent to large cruisers is not something that can be fought against by pirate ships, not to mention that these merchant ships are no less than their speed after unloading their cargo. Not to mention these small pirate ships, it is hard to say whether the British naval warships can work. Of course, if they drive those first-class battleships, they will definitely work.

But unfortunately, the British did not have the courage.

Two months later, the Ming army's Atlantic Fleet officially entered Xinbo Port, and the accompanying Marine Corps landed, and the city completely fell into Yang Feng's control.

The original defenders, the Yinzhou contingent, retired from active service, and their ships, including their ships, were re-turned to the Global Company's merchant ships, and then they each sailed out of the port and returned to their routes, and continued to do their maritime business. As a reward, each of them received a large reward, and the foreign mercenaries even officially obtained the status of a Ming Dynasty citizen.

They all left with satisfaction, and the colonial governors of Britain, France and the West were stunned.

Because then a large number of goods originally specialized by the East India Company of Britain and France were continuously transported to Xinbo City. At the same time, smugglers from all over the country flocked like flies, carrying these goods onto merchant ships or even small fishing boats, and then disappeared on the vast sea. When they appeared next time, they would definitely be those harsh coastlines.

The Royal Navy has not had a few warships in North America in total. Not to mention the coastline that lasts thousands of kilometers, they can't even see Boston alone.

What's more, many of these bastards don't even go to the sea. After a century of colonization, the land transportation and inland shipping between New England and other colonies have been very complete. Smuggled goods that have been pulled into a cart will be taken from the land. Anyway, Britain has only a few thousand troops in this area, so what can this person do? Now the common people in these colonies are basically all in the same group as smugglers, including a large number of local officials and police. These people collect a lot of benefits from smugglers every year, and they don't care even if they see them.

Especially after the Indians joined this ranks, the British were even more desperate.

Those smugglers, under the protection of the Indians, passed through their territory and entered the Ohio River water net, and even transported smuggling goods from inland to the distant coast of the Great Lakes. Not to mention the few British people in the colonies, even if they transferred all the British Army to the North American colonies, they could not block the holes everywhere. Poor East India Company had just passed a few good days, and then was beaten to death by a slaughter.

All kinds of tea, spices, kerosene and other goods purchased from the Ming Dynasty were piled up in warehouses in ports. Unless the price was reduced to a loss, no one would care about it. Those colonial people who drank smuggled tea, wore clothes made of smuggled fabrics, and ate delicious foods filled with smuggled spices did not care about the murderous gazes of the noble capitalists in London. They would have lived a comfortable life, and those who had sucked their blood for so many years should be in trouble.

The British East India Company quickly slid to the brink of bankruptcy.

However, this company cannot fail.

Unlike the original history, Britain now has no other economic pillars. Their textile industry is on the verge of despair under the impact of the Ming textile industry. After losing India, there is no place to plunder. Almost all the rich people in Britain rely on the East India Company. Although there is no India to plunder, the company still monopolizes the trade between Britain and the colonies and the East, transports various goods from the Ming Dynasty, and then exports cotton and black slaves to the Ming Dynasty. Relying on monopoly power, it continues to increase wealth for wealthy families, including the royal family, and also brings huge franchise fees to the British government to make up for the financial deficit they brought to large-scale expansion of military power.

Although this money is equivalent to sucking blood from the lower class, this method is more concealed than directly increasing taxes.

Once the East India Company falls, the British finance will be on the verge of collapse. Unless they increase taxes on a large scale, the British finance will never be able to support the current expansion. They are now investing huge sums of money to purchase steel products from the Ming Dynasty in various ways, and then melt these steel products into heavy shore defense cannons, and continuously build one after another along the British coast to prepare to resist the Ming Dynasty's invasion.

Similarly, they are also replacing their naval naval guns with a complete set of rifled cannons purchased from the Ming Dynasty.

They were also frantically purchasing rifled guns from the Ming Dynasty. According to the calculations of the British government, the easiest way to stop the Ming Dynasty's invasion was to have all soldiers. That is to say, all adult British men must have a rifled gun, preparing to use guerrilla warfare to fight to the death to turn Britain into the grave of the Ming people. Conservatively, they also need at least one million rifled guns. Although they can produce them themselves, the output is very low, and they must mainly purchase them from the Ming Dynasty.
