    Fortunately, it was these Indians who provided clues to Master Wen. They continued to migrate across the American continent following the bison, and they were very familiar with the geography.  Combined with the vague information in Wen Fei's hand, he gradually found the source of the Hudson River.  This journey will not be peaceful, as you will encounter the powerful Iroquois tribal alliance.  And Wen Fei led his Feiyun tribe to avoid the Iroquois territory as much as possible.  At this time, Heavenly Master Wen did not want to conflict with these tribes!  Of course, the Hudson River was also called the New Han River by Master Wen, a maniac who renamed it.  It¡¯s like a large area of ??Quebec was occupied by the French and was called New France.  The area occupied by the English was called New England.  Even the original New York was named New Amsterdam by the Dutch.  Of course, in the hands of the British, it was called New Yorkshire Now that Master Wen has passed through it, it is naturally impossible to hand over the naming rights to those foreigners.  Naturally, it must be filled with all kinds of imprints of his old man, even though he is incompetent in naming it.  But after learning from these foreigners who named alchemists, they still named New York New Hangzhou In short, when Master Wen finally brought his powerful tribe to New Hangzhou after all the hard work.  But it was discovered that the best part, probably the area that would later become Manhattan, had been occupied by the Dutch.  Even built a port city!  Not far away, there lived an Indian tribe, the Lenape people.  This tribe leads a life of men hunting and women plowing the fields, often with curious eyes.  Looking at the strange people on that island.  When Master Wen came closer with his army.  All the Dutch were frightened.  He pulled up the suspension bridge early, lowered the city gate, and looked at the huge army here with caution.  And the Lenape people were even more frightened. They had no idea when such a powerful tribe migrated nearby.  Unlike several simple hunting tribes composed of the Feiyun tribe, the Lenape people do indeed have men hunting and women farming.  They even went into the sea to fish!  They are a huge tribe because of farming.  Allowing them to feed a larger population than they could simply hunt.  There are five, six or seven people in this tribe. The adult warriors alone can gather three to four thousand.  ¡°Woooo¡­¡± Seeing the arrival of the powerful tribe led by Wen Fei, the entire Lenape people were on guard.  It just seems that all their men have gone out to hunt, and there are not many in the entire tribe who can fight.  There were only seven or eight hundred people gathered, and these were all strong women.  Even so.  This brave tribe still blew the horn.  Soon, a fit Indian beauty rode a war horse and galloped in front of Master Wen Fei: "outsiders, what are you here for?" Wen Fei smiled slightly and looked at this beautiful woman sitting on a horse with beautiful muscles all over her body.  , an indigenous beauty with wheat-colored healthy skin.  He smiled and said: "Hello. We are not here to fight you!" The Feiyun tribe was originally supposed to belong to a branch of the Iroquois, which is different from the Algonquin branch of the Lenape people.  There are also great differences in language, but the language problem is for Wen Datianshi.  Never a problem!  Although Master Wen expressed his kindness, the huntress still stared wide-eyed.  Watch them warily.  Said: "Who are you? Why did you come to the territory of our Lenape people?" Wen Fei said lightly: "That's because we have a grudge against those white ghosts, so we are here to take revenge!" "With those white ghosts, we are here to take revenge!"  The white ghost has a grudge?" The fierce and beautiful huntress looked at Wen Fei more vigilantly: "No, we Lenape people don't allow it. This is the land where our ancestors rest, and we can't let anyone disturb them!"  Woman, don't be shameless." A captain behind Wen Fei shouted: "Why can those white ghosts live in your land? Wouldn't they disturb your ancestors?" That female hunter Qiang?  Holding back his anger, he said, "They bought that piece of wasteland." Master Wen had long known that these Dutch people spent about sixty guilders, which is roughly equivalent to the $1,000 they bought Manhattan five hundred years later.  island.  Moreover, after becoming neighbors with these white ghosts, about forty years later, there were less than two hundred of these Lenape people left Wen Fei resisted the feeling of laughter and said lightly: "We Feiyun  We never get what we want with words, but with swords. If you want to fall in front of us, as our enemy Feiyun, then you should, no, your tribe should be prepared!  ¡±  "Roar" As soon as Wen Fei's words came out, the soldiers around him who heard it excitedly drew their swords and roared to the sky.  Although the Feiyun soldiers at the back couldn't hear what was said in front of them, they were so high-spirited that they also drew their swords and roared.  The horse under the beautiful huntress was frightened and stood up, almost throwing the fierce and elegant cheetah-like woman off the horse.  Fortunately, she was good at riding and quickly calmed down the horse.  When he looked at Feiyun again, he was already full of fear: "You can't defeat those people. They are on the island, and they have built a castle" "This is not what you should care about!" Wen Fei  Smiling slightly, he pointed at the future Manhattan Island: "Secure this place for me before dark. I will call this island Parrot Island!" "Ho ho ho" the soldiers of Feiyun Department cheered and roared.  .  Like a flood coming out of a sluice, it rushed towards the Dutch New Amsterdam.  Although it is on the seaside, the island of Manhattan, not Parrot Island, is surrounded by the East River, the Hudson River and the Harlem River.  Wen Fei gave an order, and a large number of Feiyun soldiers roared and rushed towards them.  But the Dutch people on the island were not very afraid. By this time, their maritime dominance had already declined.  Even this important stronghold on the North American continent is not very large.  But they have a natural barrier, and the surrounding river is a huge natural moat.  If these poor Indians plan to use their ridiculous canoes to cross the sea, then the Dutch warships will not mind dispatching once, knocking over all the canoes, and sending these poor guys into the water to feed the fish.  But an astonishing scene happened. Just by the river, on the originally empty sea, a large ship of about fifty meters suddenly appeared out of thin air.  This big ship looks very strange, unlike any ship of this era.  There isn't even a sail. Oh my God, such a big ship without sails. Do you want to rely on human power to row it?  The Dutch people who were watching from the top of the city of New Amsterdam were all shocked and stunned. A guy who saw it through a monocular suddenly shouted in a high-pitched voice: "Damn it, damn it. This ship is made of iron.  Made of steel" "Impossible, how could humans build such a ship?" This time, these poor Dutch people were stunned, watching the ship suddenly blow its whistle and make a loud noise.  Slowly drive towards Parrot Island.  "Hell, don't let them go ashore, or we'll all be doomed" "Send our ships" Amidst the chaos of shouts, pitifully, the warship parked in the port of New Amsterdam could not muster the courage to fight with such a  A steel monster went to fight for his life.  You must know the naval warfare tactics of this era, although bombardment is powerful.  But in the bumpy and high-speed sea, it is simply impossible to solve the opponent with artillery shells.  What really determines the outcome of a naval battle is a collision or a boarding battle.  And just looking at the appearance of this steel ship, you can imagine how unwise it would be to collide with it.  As for the boarding battle As long as you look at the densely packed battles above, with the eyes staring like bells and the machetes and axes in their hands ready to chop people at any time, you should know how ridiculous this idea is.  What's more, this steel warship appeared out of thin air, so it was definitely not an ordinary ship.  It must be a magic ship, just like the three legendary pirate ships, it must be a creation of black magic!  It was while these Dutch people were panicking that the ship had docked.  One by one, the Indian warriors finally stepped onto the solid ground with their weak feet, howling, and rushed towards New Amsterdam As a result, the first warrior did not rush to the city wall before.  Those Dutch have already hung a white flag on the city!  It was only at this moment that Heavenly Master Wen breathed a sigh of relief.  The adventure was a success!  In fact, he is just an empty shelf here.  He borrowed this fishing boat from Mengzi Island. Fortunately, modern boats are highly automated, and he only needs one person to drive such a boat.  ¡°If the Dutch really sent out warships to intercept, Master Wen really didn¡¯t know what to do for a while.  You must know that there are no weapons on this fishing boat.  The Dutch could smash the ship even with cannonballs.  After all, this is just a fishing boat. Even if it has a steel hull, it is still a fishing boat.  As long as the soldiers are transported to Parrot Island, this battle will be more than half successful.  After all??Although the name Amsterdam is prestigious, it is only a newly developed small port.  This castle has a false name and is not as difficult to attack as Quebec.  But even Quebec was captured by Master Wen, let alone this small castle.  The current New Amsterdam is just a newly built one, with only a few hundred people inside.  Now they are all prisoners of Master Wen Datian!  When Peter Minuit, the governor here, tried to stand up straight and came to Wen Fei, he raised his head vigorously to make himself look more respectable.
