Xu Hai led the order to clear the route, and took 1,000 soldiers and 200 rounds of iron bullets on the road, first to the east, and then along the thousand islands to the south.

Guo Wenying also set out on the second day with a thousand soldiers, and they did not dare to go southeast, but only went northeast, close to the Ryukyus.

Guo Wenying didn't want to get on the boat, she was seasick and dizzy, but these two big ships were built by her, and the test ship can only be tested by personal experience. But fortunately, before getting on the boat, he poured a bowl of seasickness medicine, and brought a military doctor with him, Zhang Qiang also specially prepared mint leaves for her, telling her to put it in her mouth and chew it.

After she was a little better, she took some workers to check the various functions of the ship, and it seemed to be running normally, the sea was windy, and the driving was quite smooth.

Five days later, they came across a galleon from Luzon, a three-masted crosssail in the Carrak style, with a 24-hole gun hatch cover on one freeboard. It was much larger than their ship, and it was equipped with much more weapons.

Guo Wenying was slightly surprised, seeing that the flag hanging on the ship was not the flag of Nanqi.

The ship lowered two sails, Guo Wenying also ordered to roll up the mainmast sail, slow down and turn the rudder, and the two sea overlords turned around like two people to look at each other.

After a while, each of them lowered the sentry boat, and a young officer came over there, but his mouth was in an incomprehensible bird language.

Guo Wenying listened to it for a while, vaguely like Spanish, although she had heard Spanish in her previous life, but she really didn't understand it at all, so she tried to talk to him in English, but she didn't expect that person to know a little English. The two communicated for a long time before they figured out that they were Spanish merchant ships and had no ill will towards them.

Guo Wenying said that he was from Qi and was going to Ryukyu to do business. The Spaniard, who had not seen Qi for a long time, invited them to go with him.

The flood wind is slanting and going very slowly. Guo Wenying found that the Spanish ship could keep up with the two masts, and it was obvious that the soft sail had a stronger ability to catch the wind than the hard sail. The Southern Qi Dynasty forbade the sea, forbade coming and going, and didn't even know what the outside world was like, and obviously in this world, the shipbuilding industry in the West was more developed than in the East. She asked the oarsman to tell the Spanish officer that he wanted to buy a spare sail canopy from Spain to test it, and paid a lot of real money, and negotiated for a long time, but he got it, modified the foremast, and hung the soft sails of Spain, and it was much faster.

Two days later, the ship arrived at Shuangyu.

Shuangyu is two long islands, sandwiched between more than 20 miles of a harbor, north-south direction, big belly and small mouth, like a mouth ready to kiss. The north entrance faces the mainland, the south entrance is wider and has a bit of a trumpet shape, and people have built stone dikes to reduce the force of the waves. Although it is only dawn, the island is brightly lit and full of people. The wharf is particularly unbearable, with countless sideboards, sails, masts, mountains of goods, tarpaulins, and wind-and-rain greenhouses supported by giant trees, porters and sailors who come and go in a hurry, and shopkeepers and cargo owners who bargain slowly, constitute an extremely chaotic picture.

Standing on the Kyoho and watching from afar, looking at the prosperous scene, it was like a dream for a while. If it weren't for the fact that it had gone beyond the borders, it would have been hard to imagine that the outside world would be like this, and where could the once prosperous Nanqi still find such a prosperous wharf with such a large draft? This is obviously still the land of Nanqi, but because the control of the sea is too weak, it has been occupied by several countries for their own use as a transit place for goods.

The neighboring countries are constantly improving, and Nanqi is not only eating the old roots, but also constantly regressing, and if it continues like this, sooner or later it will become the target of a powerful country. If you are not strong, you will be beaten, and for those who have experienced the Opium War and the Eight-Nation Alliance, it is too impressive.

This world is very similar to the Ming Dynasty in history, but it is also very different, but in any case, the ban on the sea must be lifted, and the past history must not be repeated.

The ship docked at the dock for a day, restocked, and returned the next day.

In Beijiao, Feng Jingting stood on the dock and saw Guo Wenying walking down from the boat, the summer sun shone on her, the too dazzling sunlight made her frown slightly, she raised her hand to cover her forehead, and looked far away on the sampan, which was very cute.

He squinted his eyes and imagined her running towards him, throwing herself into his arms with a face full of joy, but unfortunately in the end it was only a fantasy, and he had to work to move towards her.

He resisted the urge to rub her into his arms and asked softly, "I'm back." ”

"Hmm. ”

"Is everything alright?"

"It's okay, it's just a little stimulated. ”

She told him what she had seen and heard along the way, she was indeed stimulated, compared with the outside world, Nanqi was like an old cow pulling a broken car, shutting down, and it couldn't go a few miles with all her might, especially when there were people dragging her hind legs behind, which made it even more difficult for this ox cart to move an inch.

Feng Jingting pondered silently for a while, and said: "Jiaojiao, you pray that I can reach the pole, when I dominate the world, I will definitely make Nanqi change." ”

Guo Wenying sighed lightly, if it weren't for his ambition, she really wouldn't have followed him like this. After giving birth to Qi people, she sincerely hopes that the country will prosper and the people will be rich, and even hope to change history and change the humiliating history of the Chinese nation. This is not the world she lives in, and even if history changes, it shouldn't have much impact. An unknown world, the direction of which is already in the hands of the existing people.

A day later, the Conch also sailed back, and although Xu Hai came back with a thousand people with all beards and shadows, he looked at the gloomy face, and he didn't know what kind of fire he was holding. When I asked him what was wrong, he wouldn't say. Later, Zhou Qi, who was still his personal guard, whispered that Xu Hai met a woman and was teased by others.

A big man called a little girl to bully, this story is a bit interesting. Guo Wenying simply took the bag of melon seeds, and listened to Zhou Qi while snorting.

That was a few days ago, and the Conch was chasing a gray whale.

Xu Hai didn't go into the water for a long time, and as soon as he went out to sea, he was like he had just been released to spread joy, commanding the soldiers to spread out their sails, and running so happily. After leaving the mainland for a day, they happened to find a gray whale, and Xu Hai gave an order, "Chase-".

The Conch chased the whale with all its might for a day and a half.

It was afternoon, and the sea was full of waves. They finally caught up with the gray whale, and found that the giant whale had a harpoon stuck in its back, and then found the owner of the harpoon, a small dhow that was still close behind the giant whale.

The sloop was even faster, leaving the Ringing far behind.

At first, Xu Hai only saw an old man at the bow of the boat, and then saw that the person at the helm turned out to be a slightly fat lady. The old man had four harpoons lying at his feet, and the fishing boat was so small that the whale's ugly sole-like head could sink it as long as it rested on it.

Xu Hai ordered the three small boats to be lowered and began to round up the gray whales.

The old man watched them from afar, muttering indignantly, still refusing to give up. To find this site, please search for "6 Mao" or enter the URL:.
