New Ming Empire mixed in America

Chapter 88 Landing in San Francisco

"Long live my lord, we are almost here. Do you want to go to the deck and take command personally?"

Liu Erhe asked softly at the door of the captain's cabin.

After putting the last bite of the fried egg into his mouth, Li Ming wiped his mouth with a napkin and stood up and said:

"Let's go, this is the first test of the Empire's warriors. I have to see it with my own eyes."

At this time, the sky had begun to brighten, and a day and a night had passed since the bombardment of the pirate ship.

At this time, the fleet had sailed past Lands End in San Francisco, and then reached the Golden Gate Strait. If it were in later generations, the Golden Gate Bridge would have been visible now.

As soon as he picked up the telescope, Li Mingqi saw the light from a strong flashlight swaying regularly on the distant coastline.

Soon, two rubber boats were launched from the fleet, carrying a squad of National Defense Force soldiers and rushing towards the beach with a slight roar of engines.

Ten minutes later, the National Defense Forces soldiers who went to conduct reconnaissance sent back a safety report via walkie-talkie.

Because the water level on the beach did not support the warships from getting too close, a full three hours had passed by the time Wang Chuan's heavy artillery regiment had all landed.

The National Defense Force soldiers led by Sun Laifu had already finished arranging defense matters and began to eat breakfast.

A reconnaissance team was also sent out to ensure that all troubles within a five-kilometer radius were caught.

Li Mingqi, who was the last to disembark, had a stone tablet engraved with text lifted from the ship.

With more than a dozen uniformed guards waving shovels, this stone tablet was successfully erected at the location where the National Defense Forces first landed.

There are six very conspicuous large characters on the top of the stele: 'Xinming Landing Beach'.

Below is engraved the time when soldiers of the New Ming Empire's National Defense Forces landed and the names of the main generals.

The bottom is covered with Li Mingqi’s jade seal:

——————

|New Emperor|Wanyong|

|Ming Dynasty|Shi Chang|

——————

Another hour passed, after everyone had finished breakfast, and the National Defense Forces replayed the landing scene under the recording of the camera.

Of course, this time he looked much more handsome than when he landed in embarrassment just now.

Wehrmacht soldiers walked past the camera in neat lines.

Everyone raised their chests and raised their heads, with firm eyes. If the fully armed soldiers did not look at their rifles, they would be no different from the armies of later generations.

However, because the Empire 130 mortar cannot be moved away, the artillery is much less visible in this landing shot.

But it doesn't matter, the battlefield is the artillery's most glorious moment.

The location where Li Mingqi landed at this time was later known as China Beach in California.

Some people may feel inexplicably proud when they see this name. But don't forget that this "China Beach" with stone monuments does not record the glorious years.

Some travel articles on the Internet will say something in a proud tone. Here is a record of the history of Chinese participation in the construction of San Francisco.

But in fact, this was the only beach that could be sheltered from the wind when the Chinese came to San Francisco for gold mining in 1848.

Later, it became the landing place for Chinese workers during the construction of the Central Pacific Railroad.

Here we witness how the Chinese gradually became Chinese workers in San Francisco. It can be said that every footprint on this beach was filled with blood.

Needless to say, just the word "Chinese workers" can explain everything.

Before Li Mingqi settled in Los Angeles, there were still many Chinese living here. But these people have now all become subjects of the Xinming Empire.

But now, this place has become the inherent territory of the Xinming Empire since ancient times.

Because just now, under the recording of the camera, several soldiers of the National Defense Force digging trenches dug out from the ground a stone tablet inscribed: "If you give coins to people, you will be transformed into Rouyuan people."

This means that in order to promote the majesty of the Ming Dynasty, Ming culture was used to educate or soften Westerners and make them submit to the majesty of the Ming Dynasty.

The "Zheng He Stele" with these words engraved on it was supposed to be unearthed in Fujian in later generations, but now that Li Mingqi has arrived, it is reasonable to appear in San Francisco.

Don’t always mistake the new Ming for the Ming. As long as you reverse the Qing, it is the Ming!

Therefore, this is clear proof that the Xinming Empire has owned the territory of San Francisco since ancient times!

Now the Xinming Empire has pictures and the truth. If you don't believe it, you can bring the evidence to the Xinming Empire and see Jin Yiwei, and they will give you a satisfactory answer.

In addition to the stone tablets, there are also some antique cultural relics from the time, such as a personal seal of Zhu Yunwen of the Ming Dynasty.

However, Li Mingqi felt that it was a waste to have Zhu Yunwen's seal appear here, so he ordered the imperial historian to cut this section.

When the Xinming Empire discovers other ancient territories, this seal will come in handy.

Although Zhu Yunwen's seal is not suitable for recording, Zheng He's personal seal can always be used.

So under the recording of the camera, another seal was dug out where the stone tablet was found...

Although many discoveries of archaeological value were excavated here, the Xinming Empire did not delay the construction of military fortresses.

A few days later, the first batch of prisoners of war transported from the New Ming Empire set foot on San Francisco again.

Now, they can freely shed blood and tears (cross out)... and sweat for San Francisco.

Because this place is close to the Golden Gate Strait, none of the merchant ships passing by will be idle and sail to the port of San Francisco, but choose to stay here.

Therefore, no one would doubt those workers who were working hard that they were prisoners of war of the Xinming Empire.

In just half a month, a simple fortress consisting of cement bunkers and barbed wire was initially built.

And on the side facing the beach, a trench, machine gun bunkers and artillery fortifications were dug to tightly block this natural landing point.

Although the construction of the fortress was not perfect, there was not much time left for Li Mingqi.

During this period, the reconnaissance teams sent out would occasionally bring back some San Francisco residents who 'volunteered' to work for the New Ming Empire without payment.

For these good people, Li Mingqi also very generously provided them with a stable job where they could have a full meal.

Don't underestimate this job, it is the kind of iron rice bowl. His Majesty Li Mingqi kindly provided these people with a lifetime job opportunity. These people should be grateful.

However, some surprises also occurred during this period.

That was because the police in a nearby town had some minor friction with the New Ming Empire Defense Force in order to investigate the fact that more than half of the townspeople had disappeared for no reason.

But these small frictions didn't even have a chance to be reported to Li Mingqi, and they were taken over by the historian's few words:

'Today there are white barbarians who invade our Xinming Empire's frontier fortress, annihilate them!'

'A soldier's meritorious service should be rewarded, so he will be promoted to a higher level and his salary will be doubled.'

Afterwards, the townspeople of this small town reunited at the construction site of the Xinming Empire.

However, these small things have also accelerated the construction of the fortress by the Xinming Empire. They are planning to at least build a permanent fortification that is easy to defend before the San Francisco army discovers this place.
