Just as the eldest prince frowned, he was at a loss.
Chen Qun read the news. Although he had received this information a long time ago and had also discussed how to deal with it,
He said: "Since we can't provide the personnel, how about we provide the supplies and money and let Zheng He recruit the sailors himself?
Zheng He wants to be the Governor-General of Nanyang, so he naturally needs soldiers under his command. If we send a large army, he may be even more dissatisfied.
Only the army he recruited himself could make him feel at ease.
And so, secretly gathering so many troops is already a violation of the laws of the Dagan Kingdom. If the Dagan Emperor finds out, he will definitely not forgive him, and he will have no choice but to fight with us.
As for how to deal with him in the future, that will be a matter for the future."
When the eldest prince heard this proposal, his eyes lit up, thinking of Zheng He's fleet which was also recruiting sailors everywhere.
If we could buy more ships from Gongshujia and hire some strong men, we might be able to deal with that remote small country.
"Thanks to your plan, everything becomes clear. Now that we have the three of you, great things can be accomplished." The eldest prince nodded repeatedly, very satisfied with Chen Qun's plan.
However, according to this plan, even if the eldest prince is very rich, has cooperation with the Ming Cult, and has some money from other forces.
Such an action would be a considerable expense for the eldest prince and would also be very painful.
But in his opinion, all these efforts are worth it as long as he can obtain the skills.
Since it was Chen Qun who proposed it, let Chen Qun discuss it with Zheng He.
How much silver and ships are needed, and how to keep this matter secret?
In the name of overseas treasure hunting, those people were taken away in batches.
In the past, Emperor Da Gan asked Zheng He to go to Southeast Asia to look for the former crown prince.
We didn't give much support, and we weren't going to fight a war, so exploration didn't require many people.
However, the number of people summoned by Zheng He's fleet was not enough for these ships to accommodate.
Now only one twentieth, about 5,000 people, are going out to sea with Zheng He, and the rest are waiting on the beach.
With the support of the eldest prince, these people got the ship.
With a suitable reason, you can naturally go to sea.
After several attempts, Chen Qun gained the trust of the eldest prince, the Gongshu family received orders, Zheng He received ships, and the eldest prince obtained the skills.
It seems like everyone benefits, isn't that wonderful?
Soon, with the support of the eldest prince, the fleet set out to sea in batches in order to avoid attracting attention.
With a nautical chart, it would only take about ten days to travel from the East China Sea to the South China Sea.
Zheng He also did not take any action, but instead stationed on several small islands in the northernmost part of the South China Sea, waiting for the arrival of follow-up troops.
By the time the last batch arrived, the entire fleet had more than a thousand ships of all sizes, the largest of which was more than one hundred feet long and more than thirty feet wide.
The number of people in the fleet reached as high as 100,000, and Zheng He sailed to Southeast Asia seven times.
The number of people each time is between 20,000 and 30,000, and there are also duplicates.
Therefore, the number of people who sailed to the West during the seven times was probably around 100,000.
Of course, there was no shortage of outstanding naval generals. The ships gathered together, stretching for more than ten miles. The aura of the soldiers on the ships also began to connect together, forming clouds.
Although most of the sea monsters use the spiritual energy of heaven and earth to temper their bodies, these clouds may not affect their combat effectiveness much.
But it also made them feel uncomfortable, so they would automatically avoid Zheng He and his fleet and swim towards the deep sea or other directions, without encountering too many sea beasts to stop them along the way.
