Chapter 1420: Reaction
Chapter 1420 Reaction
Bianjing City, the Mansion of the Duke of Shu.
Bi Guan knelt in front of Shi Wei, crying silently.
The colander also knelt next to Bi Guan, who was more than seven years old, he also knew that something was wrong, his brother had not seen anyone for several days, and the atmosphere at home was becoming more and more tense, with a posture of mountain rain coming.
Shi Wei said to Bi Guan: "Guan'er, where are they going?" Don't tell me you don't know. ”
Bi Guan sobbed and said, "Brother Flat Can...... With the chair brother, they said that they were going to prove it...... The Earth is a sphere! ”
"What?" Shi Wei couldn't believe her ears: "Just the two of them? Their father didn't dare to say such a big thing! ”
"Twenty-one knots and Mr. Xiao Shao can only go as far as New Song Zhou, how dare they?!"
Bi Guan said: "Brother Bian Can said...... The third uncle's logbook, as well as the meteorological observation report of the Great Song Dynasty...... Illustrate...... Indicate that there are fixed wind bands at different latitudes. ”
"Sailing with the wind belt...... If it goes well...... Along the 30th parallel of the north latitude...... As long as six months...... Six months...... to be able to get to ......."
Shi Wei is like listening to a book from heaven, one head and two big: "Where are you going?" ”
Bi Guan sobbed and said, "Brother Bian Jar said, use the southwest wind well, you can reach ...... Tianfang, or the Great Western State......"
"Where?!" Shi Wei was shocked and angry, and couldn't help but stand up: "The third brother said that it was thousands of miles away!" How did they have this idea?! ”
Bi Guan said: "Yes...... According to the 21st Jie Du and the Shaw Bachelor's Navigation Records...... Speculative. ”
"When the twenty-one knots sailed around the new Song Continent, between the twenty-five and thirty degrees south latitude, they encountered a violent westerly wind, and later Shao Bachelor also encountered this wind in the east of the New Song Continent, and also used this wind to arrive at Jintan City from Xuanhu City."
"Coupled with the third uncle's sailing experience from the South China Sea to the heavenly side, Shao Bachelor and Twenty-one Jie Du, speculated that he drew two wind belts in the southern hemisphere - the trade wind belt and the westerly wind belt, and then ...... Then Brother Flat Jar and Brother Chair calculated the northern part of the earth, which is the route from Hangzhou to Goryeo, and found ...... It was discovered that the winds and currents of the previous offshore routes, and the current offshore routes, were different. ”
"The currents and winds of the open sea route may be symmetrical or nearly symmetrical with the currents and wind bands drawn by Shao and the twenty-one knots."
"I'm going to die......" Shi Wei put her hand on her head: "You are a room of scholars bullying me, I don't understand, right?" Do you dare to say you're not involved? ”
Bi Guan glanced at Shi Wei quickly: "I...... I'm helping...... Forget a little bit......"
Shi Wei saw that Bi Guan looked aggrieved, and it was not easy to attack, so she said patiently: "Even if the flat tank runs away alone, why does he still pull Xiaoyi and Yanbi?" Xiao Yi is the eldest son of King Cao, and he will inherit the title of King Cao in the future! Not to mention the chair, it is the only seedling of Bachelor Chen and Aunt Rong! The Queen Mother often pays attention to his academic progress! ”
After speaking, I felt so lost: "...... They, why are they so ruthless to run so far? They don't have a mother in their hearts?! ”
Speaking of this, he asked Bi Guan again: "They are not sensible, Guan'er, you have always been well-behaved, say, what kind of soup did the flat jar pour you with?" You even asked you to help him hide this big deal?! ”
Bi Guan covered his face and cried.
Shi Wei helped Bi Guan up, hugged him in his arms, and said softly: "Did the flat jar make you feel wronged?" Or did he do something bad to you? ”
Bi Guan shook his head: "No...... Flat Jar Brother...... He said that he would soon be fourteen, and if he didn't be bold again, he would have to work for the official family in the future, and he would never have a chance......"
He added...... He also said that when he came back, I would be fourteen, and he would come to the door to propose marriage...... Woowoo woo ......"
Shi Wei suddenly remembered that she was worried about Su You's safety in Kuizhou, the tangled feeling of wanting to see him but not daring to meet him, only daring to hide secretly to protect him, and couldn't help but cry.
hugged Bi Guan and choked up: "Poor stupid girl, wait for the conscienceless one to come back, see if I don't beat him to death!" ”
Seeing his sister and mother hugging their heads and crying, the colander also cried, got up and hugged them: "The colander is good, the colander is better than my brother...... Mother and sister don't cry, woo woo woo ......"
Just when the family was in a panic, they heard Lu Zhen's anxious voice and thought outside: "The county gentleman and Uncle Zong are here, it's good for you to come, hurry up and persuade Mrs. and Guan'er, I don't understand what they said...... This little young master, how could the little young master cause such a big disaster......"
I listened to Su Xiaomei's voice and said: "Sister Luzhen, don't be anxious, it's okay, listen to the third brother, the current sea ships are still very reliable, Biancan, Tong'er, and Xiaoyi are all clever ghosts, there must be plans and arrangements, plan and then act." ”
"I can't be in a hurry now, Zhaoming has already spoken to His Majesty, and things may not be too bad......"
……
In the Military Aircraft Department, Zhao Ji is listening to the intelligence gathered by all parties.
Chen Zhaoming, Zheng Mu, Han Jiang, Guo Kui, etc. are among them.
First of all, Zheng Mu reported: "Wang Dejia, the patrol envoy of the three islands, sent a report to receive the will of His Majesty conveyed by the Hangzhou City Bosi, Wang Dejia ordered the clipper to rush to the Changguo army, but it was still a step late. ”
"According to Changguo Taishou Long Jicai, the three young masters have replenished their supplies there for half a year, and they have also recruited twenty sailors, and they have set sail a few days ago, and it is said that the destination is Songcheng in Japan."
Zhao Ji said: "The L-snail is a self-propelled ship of the Great Song Dynasty, are the sailors reliable?" ”
Zheng Mu said: "It's reliable, they are all sailors who fought in the South China Sea with the Duke of Shu back then." ”
"The leader's name is Long Haisheng, who once broke into Macheng Port with Liu Shiheng in the Battle of the South China Sea, burned the Pu Shi Ma Sailor, and then took over Cao Nan's timely landing in Hoi An City, and accumulated merit to the captain of Zhiguo."
"The three islands set up a state and built a large port, and the imperial court was familiar with the situation in Changzhou with Long Haisheng, and ordered him to retire from the army and turn into the defense envoy of the Changguo army.
Zhao Ji had a headache: "The Great Song Dynasty is still a little lax in the governance of the island, which is the fault of the Chinese book." A state defense envoy said that he left the administrative office? ”
Han Jiang explained: "There are many such problems in the border towns, and the Changguo Army is similar to Yan'an and Linfu before, the only difference is that it is at sea. ”
"The Long family is also similar to the family of breeders and families, and most of their children work in the Nanyang Naval Division. The imperial court should pay attention to such a situation. ”
"Long Jicai is his duty, and the military of Changguo is actually under the jurisdiction of the two Zhejiang Luning Navy. Long Hai's life is to fulfill the duty of a companion, long-term travel with Japan, Goryeo all the way, manage the wind ships, and guide the ships to Hangming and Ming to trade. ”
"However, the patriarch of the Long Clan, who has been a local official for a long time, does not conform to the rules of the Great Song Dynasty after all, so it is better to be transferred."
Zhao Ji said: "Changzhou is the port that Goryeo Japan must pass through to pay tribute, how many Zhizhou in the Great Song Dynasty understand port affairs and island affairs?" Let's wait until there is a suitable successor. ”
Han Jiang said: "There is one, that is...... I'm afraid it's a bit overkill. ”
Zhao Ji asked, "Who?" ”
Han Jiang said: "Shao Bowen and Shao Ziwen, he will definitely be able to do a good job." ”
Zhao Ji nodded: "This is also true, Shao Bowen's prestige in Goryeo and Japan is also easy to do." However, as Han Gong said, it is indeed a bit overkill. ”
"To put it this way, Zhiwen Deng Sumai is actually a candidate...... Let's talk about it now. ”
Zheng Mu then said: "The Imperial City Division was ordered by His Majesty to use the telegram from the Military Aircraft Department to ask Zhang San, the commander of the Beiyang Naval Division, to dispatch warships to Songcheng to intercept them. However, due to the unfavorable wind direction in the inland sea, it took 15 more days to send a boat from Jiaozhou to Japan. ”
"When the boat division arrived in Songcheng, I learned that the L-screw had been replenished with a large amount of fresh water, coal, fire, sulfur, iron and copper, and had set off for the northeast."
Guo Kui said: "Yesterday I received a telegram from the Beiyang Naval Division, saying that a ship had discovered the traces of the L-Snail off the coast of northern Japan. ”
"The L-Screw was there to help a whaling ship named Funden shoot a whale, and after taking some of the whale oil, it left the rest for the Funden, and then inquired about the recent sea conditions in the North Sea, and headed due east."
"The L-Screw is missing two masts and is used to install a large chimney, which is more strange than an ordinary Kuizhou schooner, so the captain of the Fengdeng was impressed."
"Judging from the nautical chart handed over by the Fengdeng to the City Shipping Division, it is already an area that my Great Song Dynasty ship has never visited, and it belongs to the outer ocean, and it is impossible to guess where the L-Snail will go next."
Zhao Ji smiled bitterly twice: "Listen to Master Chen." ”
