Open the map and we can clearly find that the entire Pacific Ocean is divided by the equator, and the situation of the North and South Seas is completely different. The North Pacific Ocean is vast and the islands are sparse. Among them, the famous ones are the Hawaiian Islands, the Aleutian Islands, the Kuril Islands, the Japanese Islands, etc. Other areas are empty and vast oceans.

But the South Pacific is completely different. This vast sea area has many islands, and the ocean fleet can easily obtain various supplies.

From Medan is the Micronesian Islands, to the south is Australia and New Zealand, and to the east is slightly south. There are also the Marshall Islands, Gilbert Islands, Tuvalu Islands, Samoa Islands, and then the North and South Cook Islands where Tahiti is located.

After passing Tahiti, the voyage is more than halfway through. After passing Disi Island, you can see the South American continent. Chile's long coastline is all aimed at the Pacific Ocean, and the fleet can land at any port.

Such numerous islands provide a lot of material supplies for the expeditionary army, and there is no need to worry too much about food and water. Moreover, the islands can also provide shelter for the arrival of storms. This expedition, Xiao Letian and others are foolproof.

Putting down the Pacific chart, Xiao Letian rubbed his eyebrows and relieved his eyes' fatigue. "We have done everything we should do, so let God leave the following. Let's go north to Ryukyu. We almost exhausted me to death in the past month."

The Rome and the escort fleet, under the complex gaze of tens of thousands of people in Zamboanga, headed north to Bashi Strait to Ryukyu. The sea breeze blew on Xiao Letian. He said to himself, "I don't know what the situation in Europe is now. Your Highness Wing King has received my telegram. Is there any more than 10,000 brothers' equipment waiting for you to help you purchase..."

In 1868, the great powers of all countries in the world were stepping up the laying of telegram lines, but the earth was too big. It would take at least ten years for the colonies to spread out into a big network connecting the world.

Xiao Lotte's telegram is still moving on the road, heading west, Ryukyu, Shanghai, Hong Kong, Lion City... and then crosses the Andaman Sea and the Bay of Bengal to India, and continues westward from Mumbai to the Arabian Peninsula.

The more telegram lines you can use the westward direction, the more you can use. After the message was delivered to the port of Serbia, the ubiquitous British spy network finally intercepted the cleverly disguised telegram.

"Captain, this is the latest list of telegrams from Lotte Bank and Lotte Bank that have been intercepted. Thirteen of them were sent to Berlin. Three of them are very suspicious because those Chinese have never sent such a long telegram..."

The Suez Canal has now been completed. As a major transportation route to the Indian Ocean to the Mediterranean, it has become a very famous intelligence capital in the world.

The British spy network is now relying on his huge colony to firmly occupy the world's number one position, and the largest intelligence organization on the Suez Canal is the British.

The captain opened the three German procurement contracts and looked carefully. "They are all purchase lists, with 1,200 Mauser rifles, 3,000 spare barrels, 900 kilograms of nitrified cotton explosives, and 120 high-precision military telescopes... These are all purchase lists of arms supplies."

"There is also a procurement list for industrial products. For these procurement contracts, we exposed two spies... and let the Chinese break all the bones in their bodies and hang them on the cable..."

The captain said expressionlessly, "The Empire will remember their achievements and give their families a generous pension, which is worthy..."

"3 boring machines, 5 lathes, punching machines... It seems that Xiao Letian is really going to build a precision processing factory. The purchased here are very precise machine tools and instruments, so it is easy to identify the goods."

"Hey, there is also a daily necessities purchase list... Bordeaux red wine, Norwegian caviar, Sicily olive oil... Xiao Lotte is still a foodie."

The captain knew that there was definitely a secret in it, otherwise he would not have lost the lives of two spies to copy this, but how should the secret be cracked?

It took a long time for the captain to put the three-point contract into the archives and sighed, "This is beyond our ability. Send it to London and let professionals decipher... Starting from today, we will increase our attention to the Sino-German Foundation and see what these Chinese people are going to do."

After Xiao Letian's secret telegram arrived at the Port of Seyd, he actually entered the European Telegram Network. The branches of Lotte Foreign Company in Port of Seyd began to send a message to Berlin, and the telegram went north along the Mediterranean coast.

Passing Cyprus, Greece, passing through the Balkans, then entering Austria and heading straight for Hamburg in the north. After only two forwardings in the middle, this information was sent to the villa that Prince Karl gave to Xiao Lotte.

The villa on the banks of the Elbe River has long become the industry of the Sino-German Foundation. The main building has become the office location. The small buildings behind it are the residences of the wing king Shi Dakai, Fangguan and others.

This place has become the base camp of Chinese in Europe, not only because the Prussians are the most Chinese students, but more importantly, some diplomatic affairs can be handled here, which is already considered the Ryukyu embassy in Europe.

That's right, Ryukyu does not have the right to establish embassies in other countries. Although Ryukyu is already an emerging small power that Europeans nodded and praised, Ryukyu has not yet broken away from the vassal state with the Qing Dynasty. That is to say, Ryukyu is still a vassal state of the Qing Dynasty.

The paper on this window was not torn apart, and the subsequent establishment of diplomatic relations could not be done, but no one in all countries urged Xiao Letian. Even if everyone knew that Xiao Letian had the strength to escape from the Qing vassal states, no one would persuade him.

The reason is very simple, because Xiao Letian brought out Emperor Tongzhi of the Qing Dynasty. When he became the teacher of Aisin Gioro Zaichun, no one advised him to leave the vassal state.

Because the Qing Dynasty could allow the emperor to learn from the prime ministers of the vassal states, but would never allow Zaichun and the equal officials of the state who established diplomatic relations to learn. This involves the traditional concept of imperial power in the Middle Ages. This traditional power is very powerful and cannot be easily overturned by ordinary people.

The wing king Shi Dakai, the prince who was resurrected in Europe, named himself Mr. Hide. The King of Prussia also gave him a title of lord. He had no real power, but with this name, he was a well-known European noble.

hide means hidden in English. You can call him Mr. Hurd, Mr. Yin, or directly call him a respected Lord.

Perhaps many senior intelligence officials in countries knew Mr. Hurd's true identity, but no one would expose him. Who wouldn't know that Lord Yin was a VIP guest in the Kingdom of Prussia, and who wouldn't know that he was the general manager of Xiao Letian in Europe. It was too late to flatter such a person.
