Ni Shangzhong, who stayed in Guanxiazhou, was unable to find traces of Ma Jin and Ma Gui.

For two months, he exchanged goods with local people for everything he could find, deer, sled dog, and drove hundreds of sleds, and sent people to search the ice and snow with their supplies. They found traces of Ma Jin Magui and others' survival in the Northeast Island, but found nothing on the ice surface eastward.

The expedition team carrying the thirteen generals of the Ming Dynasty, 230 officers, and thousands of flag troops disappeared into the endless ice river.

They missed the return time and disappeared without a trace.

People say they died this winter.

The court was also very concerned about the situation that occurred in the extreme east of the territory, because the Spanish envoy had been sent to Guangdong by Gao Gong and from Guangdong to Nanjing, and at the Nanjing Ministry of Rites signed the agreement that had been agreed upon by the two countries.

As for this matter, the Nanjing Ministry of Rites added two additional members and transferred Xu Wei and Zhao Shizhen, the Nanyang Military Office, to lead the signing of the treaty.

The Ming fleet could already go directly to Yamelica from a more convenient Western route. Chen Musang was fighting in the southwest, and no one would want to disturb him in such a "small matter".

The emperor even issued an edict himself to find Magui Majin's fleet before the water and food was cut off, and they would live to see people and die to see corpses, which means that the matter was limited to three months.

Ni Shangzhong knew very well that it was impossible to find Ma Jin and Ma Gui in three months.

The ships could not sail, and they could not hike on the ice of hundreds of miles, like looking for them in a haystack. The court gave such an order, and the decision was self-evident - the Ming army would arrive in Mexico from the Spanish route, and their two-year adventure route was abandoned.

The Ma brothers were also given up.

Perhaps it won't take long before the water and food that the emperor said was cut off, the court would give them a higher official position as a posthumous title.

"I don't believe they are dead. Chen Shuai said that Yamelica is opposite this sea."

They spent two years training troops in Kuwu Island and Wangxiazhou, teaching military soldiers to read, read pictures, be good at forgings, understand medical skills, and teach foreigners from outside the region to serve as soldiers, so that they can understand Chinese etiquette and customs, and have the ambition to cross the North Sea when their morale is high.

Nowadays, several orders from the imperial court have been in vain.

The officials sent by the court were implicated by Ni Shangzhong and stayed in a bitter and cold place. For one month or two months, the sled team from Wangxiazhou still went to search for the ice sea. The farthest team even set up camps at the place where the expedition team left the last trace on the Beidao. They could only find that the pier they finally went to sea had been frozen. They found an abandoned and damaged warship, most of which were frozen in the ice. This was the last news that Ni Shangzhong could get them.

"The ship was abandoned, and they broke before going to sea because not only did there be no water and food on the ship, but even the cannons were removed. If the disaster was urgent, the cannons should remain on the ship."

Obviously, Magui and Ma Jin changed to other warships there, and took them away together with artillery, and sailed to the east.

But Ni Shangzhong's people couldn't get over the east, because the problems that had been put in front of Ma Gui and others were now also in front of Ni Shangzhong - they didn't know how far they would go east, they didn't know, the Spanish didn't know, and no one knew how far they would go east from here.

Chen Mu said it was very close based on his impression, but the current situation showed that it was not the case; and judging from the Spanish route, the journey was thousands of miles away. It was not that they could not transport the baggage to such a distant place, they dared not and were useless.

As March approaches, Ni Shangzhong is also discouraged. In his opinion, no matter what accident Ma Jin and Magui encounter, someone should be able to walk back on the ice. They bring March food and sled dogs, and even if they fail, they can always send people back to report the news.

Not so far from being heard.

Ni Shangzhong's final efforts for Ma Jin and Ma Gui and his party were ordered to blanch the vegetables in hot water and wash the meat dry.

On Beidao, in Wangxiazhou and several camps established by the Ming army earlier, they dug ice pits, sealed food into it, and letters from the recent changes in the imperial court, leaving behind signs used by the Nanyang Army.

He didn't know if Ma Jin and Ma Gui had a chance to return here, but if he didn't leave food, even if the Ma brothers came back, they would starve to death here.

In late October of the second year of Wanli, the letters sent by the court rushed from the outpost along Kuwu Island and sent them to Wangxiazhou.

The imperial decree was posthumously awarded the title of Ma Guirong Lu Dafu, the governor and the general, and the widow's first-rank imperial decree, and was given 200 taels of silver and a son was sent to the Jinyiwei hundred households.

The imperial decree was posthumously awarded the title of Ma Jin Ronglu Dafu, the governor and the general, and the widow's first-rank imperial decree, and was given 200 taels of silver and a son was sent to the Jinyiwei hundred households.

The remaining eleven generals each had posthumous awards, and they were given silver and honorable contributions, and all of them were given pensions.

Ni Shangzhong held the imperial edict, as if the Ma brothers really died.

These imperial edicts determined that the court had determined that the expedition fleet was loyal to the country.

Immediately afterwards, there was a transfer order from the Nanyang Military Office. Except for the three guards of Kuwu Island, each stayed 1,000 outdoors. The remaining troops were transferred to the Essay land and were under Chen Bazhi's command. They were divided into two armies, one entered Japan to support the war, and the other returned to Luzon. After the peace agreement was signed, they followed the Western ships to Yamelica.

The emperor had long been unable to suppress his troops and generals to the other side of the sea. Compared with this, no one knows that these people cannot raise their interest, and the only one who can relieve his worries is that land that has not been declared as king.

However, the important officials of the court were just the opposite of the emperor in this regard. Compared with the pioneering of Amelica and lending to Sevilla, they actually cared more about the first half of the treaty, the two countries reopened trade, Spain paid 6 million taels of silver in installments, the official caravan went to Mexico for trade, etc.

As for what Chen Mu wanted, he even tried to achieve his goal without hesitation. If Zhang Juzheng had not thoughtfully added two members of the Nanjing Ministry of Rites, the battle would have been in vain.

What is the most important thing to the court?

In Chen Mu's view, there have been small problems in the Ming Dynasty for the past 30 or 50 years, but there are no big problems at all. But in the eyes of Ming Dynasty officials, there have been big problems everywhere in the past 20 or 30 years, and there is nothing bigger. Therefore, Chen Mu did not care much about the Myanmar battlefield, and it was indeed the biggest problem for the Ming Dynasty.

This issue directly depends on the letters sent by Chen Mu to the court - it is related to the distribution of interests in Myanmar and Annan after the war, and it is thus possible to see that the Japanese battlefield is not an unintentional battle.

People all over the world are waiting for this answer, waiting for the Ming army to comfort them three times and six times, as if the tigers were out of the cage, farmers were waiting, handicraftsmen were waiting, wealthy merchants were waiting, local officials were waiting, important officials were waiting, civil officials were waiting, military officers were waiting, those who were optimistic or not were waiting, waiting for the outcome of this battle, and waiting for the changes to the Ming Dynasty after the war.

Under this situation, it is obviously not important that the Ma brothers who built a camp in the bitter cold wind under the peak named Shuihu Peak.

They didn't think they were important, but they just sent people to and from the frozen fleet again and again, and used sled dogs to transport all the wounded soldiers, water, food, artillery, ammunition, and even the last boat boards back to the shore.

Everything about Yamelica in the Ming Dynasty began with the 700 remnants landing at the peak of Yamelica Water Lake in the winter of the second year of Wanli.
