Chapter 196: The Storm and the Increasing Heritage

Gongsun Du and Cheng Pu just sat down, and before they could speak, the guards outside the door reported-

"Lord Huang Zhongdu has arrived!"

Gongsun Du didn't reply, and looked at Cheng Pu.

Cheng Pu understood and said, "Mrs. Huang and her children are on the boat under him. ”

Gongsun Du nodded and said, "Tell him to go to the dock." ”

"Yes, my lord."

"Thank you, lord!"

Huang Zhong also thanked him, and then left without even entering the door.

Gongsun Du didn't care either, and said, "Demou, why did you come here?" ”

From Cheng Pu left, to now come to Jinjin, it has been almost half a year, although it has been a little longer, but Gongsun Du feels that there is nothing wrong, after all, there is no experience from the past, be cautious, and spend a little more time is also deserved, the sea is really a thing that cannot be pondered.

Cheng Pu's face was bitter, and he said: "Lord, it's hard to say anything about this matter~"

Subsequently, Cheng Pu spoke in detail......

After Cheng Pu received the order, he rushed to the Liao team, and after receiving one or two new warships, he directly went to sea with nearly forty giant warships. According to the map given by Gongsun Du, he went to Donglai without hurry. Later, he crossed one island after another, and at the same time constantly revised the map given by Gongsun Du, which lasted nearly two months and arrived at Baishan Island.

Gongsun Du drew a map from memory, and there was a certain gap between it and the reality, but it was not big, so Cheng Pu was very surprised.

After getting in touch with the Mi family and waiting for Huang Zhong's family, it took almost a month before and after.

Cheng Pu thought that after going through it once, his speed would increase a lot, and he would be able to return to Liaodong in a month. However, after walking for almost a month, Cheng Pu found that he had only traveled about half the distance, which made him very puzzled.

In fact, this is the effect of ocean currents, and even after 2,000 years, the impact of ocean currents is not small, let alone today. However, Gongsun Du couldn't explain this thing, but just told Cheng Pu not to care, this is a normal phenomenon, not a problem with the ship.

"When I arrived at Chenghuang Island, it was not far from the Liaodong Peninsula, and my subordinates thought that they could return to Liaodong smoothly, but after only a few days from the island, the sky changed."

"The rainstorm that covered the sky and the sun, and the huge waves several feet high suddenly appeared overhead, and at that time, my subordinates were really worried that our warships would not be able to resist and would be torn into pieces."

Cheng Pu said with palpitations, and Gongsun Du heard the same, and his face was very ugly.

"With the huge waves, drifting for two whole days, the sky gradually cleared up, but at this time there was an endless sea of water all around, and we didn't know where we were, and although there were no battleships missing, the smaller ones were seriously damaged."

said that it was serious, but Cheng Pu's eyes were full of respect, the battleship was only damaged, but there was no direct loss, it was really wonderful! If all the warships in the future are like this, he dares to guarantee with his head that he can easily defeat all the sailors.

Well, you a navy is embarrassed to fight with the inland river sailors?

Cheng Pu whispered - the enemy is the enemy! Nothing to be embarrassed about!

Gongsun Du didn't interrupt Cheng Pu's words and listened quietly.

"With all our spare timber, we were able to barely finish the repair. However, the situation was not too good, and after discussion, we decided to head east. Because it was almost to the Liaodong Peninsula before, although I don't know how far it was blown out, it was definitely easier to see the land to the east. ”

Gongsun Du nodded, if it were him, he would choose this way.

Cheng Pu breathed a sigh of relief when he saw this, he was very worried that he would not be recognized, after all, he was still so young.

"I walked east for several days without the slightest sign of land, which for a time unnerved the people on board."

This was an understatement, but Gongsun Du could imagine how much pressure Cheng Pu was under at that time. After a terrifying storm that has never been seen before, everyone's heartstrings must be fragile, and how to maintain stability must be a difficult problem. However, Gongsun Du did not say anything to comfort him, because Cheng Pu may have to experience a lot of such things in the future, at least in the next ten years, or even more than twenty years.

"Fortunately, we were overjoyed to come across a fishing boat, and our subordinates wanted it to lead the way to their place of residence. However, he told his subordinates that outsiders were not welcome, and told us that we could see land a short distance to the north. ”

Gongsun Du interjected and said, "So you have been taking him with you until yesterday?" ”

Cheng Pu was stunned, nodded and said, "Yes, if he dares to lie, his subordinates will naturally have to give everyone an explanation from him." ”

Gongsun Du nodded and said, "Well, it should be so. However, since you hesitated yesterday, you should have known about the situation here, why did you choose to approach it at night? ”

Cheng Pu said distressedly: "There is no way for the subordinates, the damage to the battleship has exceeded expectations, although it has been repaired temporarily, the situation in the past two days is not optimistic." When you see the land, you don't want to stay on the boat anymore. ”

Gongsun Du said that he understood that if he had not experienced death, he might not be afraid of death. Moreover, judging from the fact that Cheng Pu did not go ashore directly, there was already room for turnaround, and if the situation was not right, he could leave safely. The sea, full of dangers, but also a natural barrier regardless of each other.

After understanding why Cheng Pu came here, Gongsun Du asked about the "harvest" this time: "Is it people or grain that you brought back this time?" Or something else? ”

"Lord, this is the specific situation sorted out by the subordinates." Cheng Pu took out a list and respectfully handed it to Gongsun Du.

Gongsun Du took it and looked at it, there were all kinds of things on it, and there were quite a few.

The population totaled more than 17,500 people, 5,000 stone of grain, and tens of thousands of other equipment, including armor, farming tools, and so on.

Fortunately, the material number of the new warship is high, and the load has been greatly improved, otherwise so many people and things may not be able to fit it.

"Tell me what's going on with this population?" Gongsun Du remembered that he had already mentioned to Mi Du before that the priority was to transport the population, and the rest of the grain, iron ore, etc. were all backup options.

Cheng Pu said embarrassedly: "Maybe some people are worried about accidents, so they ......"

Gongsun Du instantly understood, this is the fear of the unknown future. However, more than 10,000 people are also good, and it can also increase the heritage of Liaodong to a certain extent. Moreover, this is the first time, and the next time, with more ships and more experience, there will definitely be more people coming.

"Well, so be it!"

Gongsun Du nodded and said: "These people will be arranged directly here, and the nearby Zhuzhu, Dongyu and other places!" ”

"Yes, my lord."

Subsequently, Cheng Pu retired.

Not long after, Huang Zhong brought his wife and children to express his gratitude to Gongsun Du. Gongsun Du accepted, and at the same time asked Huang Zhong to send Huang Xu to Xiangping as soon as possible, only there were enough medicinal materials to help with a sufficiently high level of military doctors.

Huang's mother was worried about her son, so she went with her.

But this Huang Qing doesn't know what's going on, he doesn't even follow his father, but he wants to follow Gongsun Du. This made Gongsun Du, who has never been able to reject women, feel a headache, especially since this woman still doesn't like red makeup and loves arms.

From time to time, I still want to have a discussion with Gongsun Du, and it seems that there are some-

Defy?
