Chapter 384: On the Verge of the Baltic Sea

Zheng Fei nodded his head, remained silent, and after a while, smiled bitterly. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

"Actually, if he wasn't so handsome and didn't have that much attraction to girls, I would have liked to keep him, because he was a very talented young man, and I liked his songs. ”

"Who said it wasn't, I guess that guy woke up and found that he was left behind, he must not be able to figure out what happened, and it is also wrong to be handsome and talented this year. Brad pursed his lips, unscrewed the flask and took a sip: "I don't know if I can see him in the future." ”

"Leave him alone, pack up and get ready to go. ”

The musician, I will definitely see it in the future, he has the talent that the world envies, how can he be buried.

Half an hour later, the convoy was back on its journey, and several old oxen were overwhelmed and collapsed in the moor, and the people had to ...... them with grief It was made into beef jerky, and it was fragrant.

Facing the rising sun, a convoy of thousands of people gradually moved away from the north.

......

More than twenty days later.

As the days passed, the feeling of spring was getting farther and farther away, as the weather became colder.

Fortunately, with winter clothes, people had to put on their coats and huddle in the wagons to keep out the cold.

Sitting in the carriage, Zheng Fei lifted the thickened curtain and looked out, my God, the creek outside was actually frozen.

A cold wind hit, and he hurriedly lowered the curtain and spread out his hand-drawn map.

According to the data displayed by the theodolite, the latitude of the local area is about the northernmost part of China's Heilongjiang River, and the climate has not completely escaped the traces of winter, and the grass can still be found full of frost flowers in the early morning.

The Baltic, it's almost here.

Finally, I can stop walking on land, this kind of ghost weather, the coachman who rides a horse and chariots outside is really a crime.

Along the way, the convoy passed through many small towns one after another, so there were many fleeing Constanta people in the convoy, and they all chose to settle in the small town and did not continue to rush north, they felt that the war could not burn here, and it was absolutely safe.

Since discovering that the musician is gone, the girls he likes have been sullen all day long, and they don't have a good face for their husbands, but as time progresses, and with the increase in intimacy, they gradually forget about the musician, at least, on the surface.

These days, Santiago has learned a lot of words, and when he is idle, he no longer always brags to the sailors, but flips through simple and easy-to-understand books, and the whole person looks, if not well-cultivated, but not as rough as he used to be.

Zheng Fei was very pleased with his growth.

And because of Santiago's persistence, Hans was also stimulated, he didn't want to be left behind by this big man, so he also "endured" to learn to read, in the eyes of others, the two of them did a ridiculous approach, but only they knew that all the effort was worth it.

In Santiago and Hans's understanding, Zheng Fei's right-hand man cannot always be an ignorant person, and as his power grows day by day, Zheng Fei needs more knowledgeable and thoughtful people, and in order not to be eliminated, they must supervise their continuous improvement.

Having such an idea shows that they are quite forward-conscious.

What makes them envious is that Ares, who is also Zheng Fei's right-hand man, does not have to worry about this problem.

Because Ares is the leader of the knight legion, unlike them, Ares is equivalent to a general, and he doesn't need to learn anything, as long as he can fight well.

They also want to be like Ares, but they also understand that not everyone has the courage to lead, and Ares's courage comes from the blood of his orthodox descendants of the Knights of the Round Table, and they are born with it.

So where did Zheng Fei's courage come from? Zheng Fei was open-minded......

At noon that day, the convoy came to a beautiful countryside, attracting people huddled in the carriage to poke their heads out to enjoy the pastoral scenery.

Zheng Fei jumped out of the carriage, stepped onto his England thoroughbred, turned his back to people's eyes, and took out his binoculars to meet in front of him.

There are farms and crops, which means that there must be small towns nearby.

Sure enough, through the lens, he vaguely saw a small town, with a wide street crowded with people.

Let's rest there for a day, he thought.

After a tiring journey and a cold environment, he really wanted to find a room to bake the fire and sleep comfortably.

Northern Europe is so cold, it's cold.

The convoy was driving on a country road, and on the way came across a farmer, who was carrying a hoe and looked at the convoy of thousands of people with astonishment, and opened his mouth wide.

"Uncle, where is this?" Zheng Fei leaned over and placed two silver coins in his palm.

The farmer hurriedly took the silver coin into his bosom, for fear that he would take it back again.

"The small town of Neqiru. ”

"Hmm, are there any big cities around here?" Zheng Fei needed to use the big city to determine the precise location in order to plan his itinerary.

"Well, a hundred miles to the northwest, there's Gdansk, which I've heard of and never visited. ”

Gdansk, hearing this place name, Zheng Fei couldn't help but smile.

The Baltic Sea, sure enough, is coming.

Gdańsk, the largest and most important seaport in Poland, borders the Baltic Sea and controls the mouth of the Vistula River.

For more than 600 years, since the conquest of the city by the Teutonic Knights in 1308, it has been the focus of repeated rivalries between the German and Polish peoples.

Because it controlled the mouth of the Vistula River, was the most desirable outlet for Poland, and was a choke point linking East Prussia to most of Germany, both Poland and Germany saw the city as their lifeline.

After each war, the loser of the city will feel humiliated and actively prepare for the next war.

In short, it was a very unstable city, but it was precisely because of the war that its military and shipbuilding industries developed more rapidly than elsewhere.

"Thank you, uncle!" Zheng Fei smiled knowingly, his face full of spring breeze.

Seeing the huge convoy go away, the farmer secretly took out the silver coin in his arms, kissed it greedily, and quickly stuffed it back.

Sitting in the saddle, Zheng Fei felt very comfortable, and finally stepped on the long-lost deck again, which was interesting when he thought about it.

"Why are you starting to giggle man?" asked Santiago, stunned.

"I'm not smirking, we'll be back to the Americas soon, how about it, nostalgic?"

"Of course, this place is cold to me. ”

As they spoke, the convoy gradually entered the town, and the townspeople looked at them with the same eyes as the farmer, surprised by the sudden arrival of the guest.

After all, the total number of people in the convoy is more than the whole town. (To be continued.) )
