Just when Zhu Fang thought he had inherited the bravery of his father Zhu Yuanzhang and had the blessing of Emperor Tian, ​​Tupac, who had fallen to the ground, struggled to get up.

"son in law!"

"I have some unfortunate news for you. The inland Mayan Empire is expanding and will soon reach us. I hope you can use Ming's technology to help us escape..."

"snort!"

"It's just a barbarian, nothing worth mentioning!"

"By the way, how many are there?"

Tupac heard a hint of slyness in his eyes.

"In your Ming Dynasty terms, they should be ten million?"

"What?"

"Ten thousand versus ten million, you really want me to die!"

"Don't do it, don't do it!"

"I will return the position of leader to you now. I'd better go back to the Daming camp and wait for my eldest nephew to send someone to pick me up..."

When Tupac saw that his son-in-law was about to give up, he immediately pretended to faint and lay down on the ground.

Are you kidding me? How could he let go of the Dongfang son-in-law he caught with his daughter so easily?

Seeing that he couldn't get rid of the position of leader, Zhu Feng accepted it as if he had resigned himself to his fate.

However, when he really came into contact with the senior leaders of the tribe and learned about the tribe's family background, he was completely disappointed with the tribe.

No wonder Ma He said that fifty people were enough to protect him. Just look at their tribe's weapons and food warehouses. They were really poor.

In his early years, he conquered the natives of the southwest, and the weapons held by those natives were several generations more advanced than them!

In order not to be taken as a prisoner by the powerful Mayan Empire, Zhu Xi could only organize the people in the tribe to cut wood, burn charcoal, and build kilns to make iron.

Although Zhu Feng was not as cool as Zhu Yunxi, he was the prince of the Ming Dynasty after all. He had learned military affairs since he was a child, and he often inspected the blacksmith workshops in the barracks.

Even if he only knew a rough idea of ​​many things, he was countless times better than the local natives.

At least he knew how to find reddish-brown stones and grind them into powder to make iron. This was already an epoch-making progress for the aborigines of the Golden State tribes.

When the Inka tribe, under the leadership of Zhu Xi, forged the first iron axe, his position as leader was completely confirmed.

Although this ax has many shortcomings, there are many impurities in the iron, and it is far less hard and sharp than the one made by Ming craftsmen, but for the Inka tribe who still use stone axes, this is a divine tool!

While Tupac was hiding in the shack to recuperate, he was silently paying attention to Zhu Ping's movements. When he saw that he had actually forged a sharp iron axe, he summoned his confidants and asked them to fully assist the new leader in the future.

Tupac had his eye on the Ming Dynasty's iron tools from the very beginning. He didn't even care about the Xiuchun knife left by the guards, he only wanted to know the secret recipe for making iron tools.

Now that Zhu Zhenzhen has taught them, he does not hesitate to give up his position as leader.

Zhu Xi had the experience of successfully smelting for the first time, and the subsequent success rate was even higher.

In addition, the Inka and Arawak tribes had formed an alliance and borrowed a large number of people who knew how to make bronze wares from them. By combining the two, they soon figured out the secret to making iron wares and could mass-produce iron farm tools and weapons.

The warriors of the Inka tribe carried iron weapons and once again fought on the hunting battlefield. It was said that they were invincible. In less than a month, they harvested enough food for the tribesmen to eat for a year.

With a large surplus of food, they expanded externally more frequently. Not only did they peacefully annex the Arawak tribe, they also annexed all seven or eight nearby tribes, establishing a huge tribe with 50,000 people.

Because the number of tribes increased, the warrior class and the civilian class were stratified, and their tribe could no longer be managed by just one chief.

Therefore, the concept of king gradually formed.

Zhu Fang became the king of the Inka tribe, and his subordinates were divided into eight chiefs according to their tribes. He himself led 500 elite warriors as Qin soldiers.

Although Zhu Xi has become the first king of this land and has fulfilled the unfulfilled ambition of the Inka ancestors for thousands of years, for him, what he sees in front of him is still not enough...

After all, he was the King of Qin in the Ming Dynasty, with influence over a land thousands of miles away, and tens of thousands of troops under his command!

When Zhu Ping led a group of Golden State natives to claim the throne, the horse and fleet that had been sailing for a year finally returned to the Ming Dynasty.

On this day, Zhu Yunxi led all the officials to the dock to greet him and gave the Ming Dynasty Global Fleet the highest standard of courtesy.

Lao Zhu looked at the fully loaded ships and felt a sense of pride in his heart.

Unexpectedly, Da Sun's idea came true. Not only did he prove that the earth is round, but he also discovered a wider land!

But with the current population of the Ming Dynasty, there should be no shortage of land, right?

This is the fundamental reason why the Ming Dynasty missed the Age of Discovery in another time and space, because the Ming Dynasty did not lack land like those small countries in Europe.

Huaxia Shenzhou is surrounded by two large rivers. As long as there are no natural or man-made disasters, there is really no motivation to expand and explore.

Because from the beginning, they took for themselves all the land suitable for farming and human survival within their sight, leaving a very huge legacy to their descendants.

When Ma He returned this time, he not only brought back a large amount of seeds, but also brought back many novel animals.

These animals can not only make up for the shortcomings of the Ming Dynasty, but can also be used as food on the ship. If any animal is wilted or sick, the blood will be bled and the meat will be eaten directly.

Ma He took fifty alpacas with him when he set sail. He had eaten forty alpacas on the way back and only ten were left alive.

Zhu Yuanzhang led his eldest grandson around the boat for a while, looking at various novel animals and asking questions.

"Is this the big bird that Lao Wu gave us? I didn't expect to catch so many this time?"

"And what is this thing that looks like a sheep but not a sheep, and looks like a horse but not a horse?"

As Lao Zhu spoke, he walked towards the alpaca and subconsciously reached out to touch the alpaca's furry head.

Seeing this, Zhu Yunxi quickly took two steps back.

"Grandpa Huang, be careful, this thing has a dirty mouth!"

"What?"

As soon as Zhu Yunxi finished speaking, the alpaca spat wildly at the old man who had offended him for no reason.

When Lao Zhu saw this, he was very angry and pointed at the alpaca that was spitting at him.

"We want to see it on our dinner table tonight!"

"If there is no food cooked by this beast, we won't eat it!"

After Lao Zhu issued such an imperial edict, his eyes immediately wandered around the crowd.

"Lao Wu?"

"Father!"

"You have suffered..."

"Wow wow wow..."

Zhu Tie hugged Lao Zhu's thigh and burst into tears, so heartbreaking that the alpaca couldn't stop crying.

Lao Zhu also cried, looking at his thin and black son, feeling extremely distressed.

"Zhu Yunxi!"

"Look, you've harmed your fifth uncle!"

"Grandpa Huang, it's not my fault, but my second uncle's fault. He had to let me catch my fifth uncle on the boat. How could I, a nephew, dare to disobey my second uncle's order?"

When Lao Zhu heard this, he immediately said with expectation.

"Yes!"

"And that traitor Zhu Xi, where did that traitor hide? Why didn't he come out to see us?"

Ma He Wenyan bravely walked out of the crowd.

"Reporting to Your Majesty, the King of Qin insists on staying in the Golden State to open up territory for the Ming Dynasty. The servants and others really can't persuade him..."
