Richard was naturally extremely happy to be reunited with his family again after nearly two years.

And today the head of state gave himself enough face to show his face in front of his family. Not only was he given a formal position, he was even given a title.

When leaving the dock, some guards were sent to help his family carry their belongings.

Richard allocated a large courtyard with three entrances in Fuzhou City.

Julia immediately stepped into the role of hostess. Such a courtyard seemed to her like an aristocratic manor. It was too big, and there was a garden and Chinese-style rockery pavilion in the backyard, which made this woman forget to leave.

"Oh, dear, is this really our home?" Julia put her hands around Richard's neck and asked excitedly.

"Of course, do you want me to pinch you to make sure you are not dreaming?" Richard said with a smile.

There was something complicated in his heart. From now on, he, Richard, would completely become a Chinese. Even if he was to lead a fleet to attack the United States, he would do it without hesitation.

Because he didn't want his wife and children to wake up from their dreams.

"No, no, no, don't pinch me. Let's go to the bedroom. I want to test whether the big oriental bed is strong. By the way, I want to see if you have been looking for women outside in the past few years. Don't tell me that you want to date these oriental people.

They usually marry several wives." Julia dragged her husband towards the master bedroom in the backyard.

Ocean horses are inherently more unrestrained than Han women. Naturally, Richard could not tell his wife that he had raised two Fuso women at the naval base on Tanegashima.

Therefore, he must try his best to satisfy his wife today.

The grand welcome ceremony finally ended. Dong Liang never liked such lively scenes.

But this is the first group of missions sent by the Chinese people. They have completed a pioneering work for the Chinese people. These people deserve such a grand ceremony to witness their achievements.

"The head of state, Chu Yunliang, left the mission, which was a decision made by both of us. Along the way, we saw the misery of too many Chinese workers. They had to work sixteen hours a day in the plantations. One Chinese worker was scalded by hot water and asked for rest.

But in exchange for a severe beating, he had to

Working with injuries. We also saw those farmers and mine owners threading escaped Chinese workers on sharpened wooden stakes, piercing them from the lower body until the tip of the wood protruded from the mouth, and then dried them in the sun.

The climate there is hot and dry, and it doesn’t take long for people to become people.”

"It was so miserable. We couldn't help it. We captured a farm and rescued hundreds of people. We knew we couldn't bring these people with us in the mission, so Captain Chu decided to stay with some people to lead the uprising of these Chinese workers. Instead of

It would be better to die miserably in these farms and mines than to have a grand fight with these damn white people."

…

There was a tense atmosphere in the conference room of the Heads of State. After originally expressing their merits, they began to hold people accountable because the mission had made major changes to the plan without authorization. However, Zheng De's explanation made everyone feel angry.

Dong Liang happened to call the ministers of various ministries and the military generals in Fuzhou to learn about the real situation in the United States.

"Okay, I understand. The decision you made is indeed in line with the special circumstances at that time. My opinion is to treat this matter as a temporary response, rather than an illegal act of changing the plan without authorization." Dong Liang's expression remained serious,

But the certainty he gave made Zheng De breathe a sigh of relief.

"Thank you, Head of State." Zheng De stood up from his seat and saluted Dong Liang.

Others would not object to Dong Liang's decision, not to mention what Zheng De said was very reasonable.

"Zheng De, please continue to introduce the situation in the United States." Dong Liang waved him to sit down.

"Yes, head of state, the United States is a very large country. It is bounded by oceans to the west and east. It is no less than ten thousand miles from west to east. They claim that North America is the country chosen by God. Its population is mainly concentrated in the eastern region, and the white people in the western region add more.

There will be no more than 100,000 people together, and a large part of them are original Mexican whites. These people are Spanish and are different from the whites in the east. And the west is full of mountains and deserts.

, the land is barren, only the coastal areas have seasonal rivers, and they are not long, and farms can be opened here. The central area is a flat prairie with water sources and fertile land, but most of it is undeveloped. The white people in the east can make their own decisions here.

Enclosures were opened up. There are also a large number of native Indians living here. These natives make a living by grazing and hunting a kind of large bison. They often have conflicts with the white people, and some even have blood feuds."

"There are a large number of Indians in Chu Yunliang's rebel army, and those Indian tribes often provide supplies to the rebel army."

"The eastern part is a completely different scene. There are many towns along the transportation thoroughfares and rivers. There are many factories in the towns, and transportation is connected with each other by trains or steamships. In the big cities on the eastern coast, there are even dozens of people living there.

Thousands of people. There are farms everywhere between cities. Most of the local land is owned by farmers. There are few small farmers who only plant more than a dozen acres of land to make a living. However, their land does not seem to like intensive farming, and the yield is not as good as that of the Chinese...

…”

…

Zheng De's observation was very careful. Most of everyone here's understanding of the United States came from Dong Liang's "A Letter to the Chinese Compatriots", but Dong Liang's introduction in the book was not so intuitive and detailed. After all, Dong Liang did not see it with his own eyes.

Went to see it.

"Führer, let's simply send 10,000 troops to land in North America and take back the western part of the United States. Isn't there a saying?" Peng Neng, who had just returned as the Minister of Examination, said.

He was also a Chinese worker at the time, and he hated the Americans who enslaved the Chinese workers. If the Führer had not led them to revolt, they would have suffered the same fate.

"What Minister Peng means is that if Kou can come, I can go too!" Zhao Liewen added.

Logistics Minister Xu Jinchi, who has always been low-key but high-profile, shook his head and said: "No, no, last time we just sent a mission there, we used three ships, and each ship cost at least 10,000 yuan.

Yuan, if we send 10,000 troops, it will require at least hundreds of ships, and how much logistical supplies will be needed?"

Xu Jinchi didn't have time to calculate carefully, but he really didn't dare to calculate anymore.

Dong Liang also shook his head and said: "We Chinese are not yet capable of large-scale expeditions."

Of course everyone knows this, but they are just a little angry.

At this moment, Dong Liang changed the subject and said, "But this doesn't mean we don't do anything."

"Chu Yunliang's uprising in North America is like a rootless duckweed. If the Americans mobilize a large-scale cavalry, they will be in trouble."

"Führer, didn't you say that the U.S. regular army only has more than 20,000 people? How many cavalry can they mobilize?" Zhao Liewen said.

Dong Liang replied: "They do not have many regular troops, but they do have a large number of militiamen. Almost everyone in North America has a rifle, and almost all white people living on farms can ride horses. If they want to, they can

Raise a cavalry force of tens of thousands in a short period of time."

"Otherwise, how do you think they massacred the Indians who lived on horseback?"

Dong Liang's words made everyone start to think. Since they can't send troops there on a large scale, how can they help them?

"Head of State, my subordinates feel that since we cannot send people on a large scale, we should send them in small quantities and many times. What Captain Chu lacks most now should be weapons and officers." Zhou Tenghu said.

Zhou Tenghu has now been appointed as the director-general of the Fujian Provincial General Administration, and Liu Fengliang serves as the director-general of the Household Department. These two are Dong Liang's right-hand men among civil servants, and they are the focus of training.

"There is still a loophole in General Zhou's method, that is, we do not have our own port in North America. Will the Americans allow us to bring these things over?" Liu Fengliang added immediately.

"Then let's find a place by ourselves. Isn't the western part deserted? Let's find a port by ourselves. They won't be able to find it for a while," said Guo You, commander of the First Fleet.
