Similar to what Luo Youde described, after descending the mountain beam, there is a lush primeval rainforest that spreads all the way to the sea. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 infoThere are several rivers in the rainforest, the largest of which is the closest to the mountain beam, and digging the canal here is almost complete. As for the embankment from here to the sea, it is not built with stones, and it has nothing to do with its own navigation.

Walk more than ten kilometers south along the river and you will reach the sea. This is also a big construction site, no wonder Hong Tao didn't see too many people along the way, and it was cost-effective to build a port here. What's even more interesting is that there was originally a small fishing village here, about 100 people, and now they have also become the people of the sun god, I have to say that Joseph's group of gods can really fool.

"I said, are you in too much of a hurry, to build a port here, the depth of the water and the channel are appropriate? How do I feel that this is not the sea, but the island in the distance? "As soon as I arrived at the beach, Hong Tao's whole body senses became sensitive, the color of the sea water here is too light, and the surge is too small, I took a handful of sea water and tasted it, but the saltiness was not enough!

"Swann did it for you, and he spent half a month exploring the sea in a local's canoe before he was sure that there was a port here. This is the nautical chart he drawn, you see, a natural harbor, no matter how strong the wind and waves outside, as long as you enter this ghost gate, you don't have to worry. Luo Youde really regarded Swan as his godson, and once he had the opportunity, he would spare no effort to rub gold dust on Swan's face.

"This is a lagoon, it's rare to be so big, the water is deep enough, this is luck, no one can stop it!" After reading the chart drawn by Swan, Hong Tao was completely relieved.

It is true that this is not the sea, but a huge lagoon. But it has an average depth of forty or fifty meters, and an exit one kilometer wide, which is more suitable than a man-made port. This exit was named by Swann as the Ghost Gate Pass, and after going out, there were two slender peninsulas outside, one on the left and one on the right, surrounding the lagoon, leaving a wider exit. If the forts are arranged at the exits of these two floors, it is indeed the same as the Ghost Gate Pass, and the exit on the south side of the canal can be completely sealed.

A week before the Spring Festival, the Industrial finished the long-distance sea trial and returned to the Sun City Shipyard with black smoke. Overall, the sea trials were a success, at least Hong Tao was satisfied, he knew that the development of the steam engine required the efforts of generations to really become a strong man. Of course, Wen Xiaoqi was not satisfied, no matter what Hong Tao said, he always felt that it was a heart disease that he could not completely replace Fengfan. Even if the Spring Festival is coming, he doesn't plan to give himself a holiday, and he is thinking about bigger and more powerful new machines.

"Dut...... Foul! Foul! What about referees? You're blind! Didn't you see him foul for handball? On the afternoon of the Spring Festival, on a farmland outside Sun City, a large group of young men in shorts and shorts were chasing a leather ball. At either end of the field are two wooden frames, covered with fishing nets.

The first soccer Helios Cup of the Spring League began, and there were only two teams, one was the Mexican Kingdom team coached by Hong Tao, and the other was a joint team built by the other kings. The composition of the team members is very complicated, there are people everywhere, because there is no time to prepare in advance, they are all strong men who are now pulling, and they have just figured out the rules of the football game formulated by Hong Tao, and they will officially start the game.

The reason why he made it so hasty is mainly because Hong Tao knows that he probably won't be able to spend the next Spring Festival here, and it is an important strategy for him to replace war with football games and become countries within the alliance to resolve disputes. Although this time was in a hurry, everyone's enthusiasm was very high, and they all wanted to defeat Hong Tao's team face to face, which could be regarded as a victory over the emperor. Hong Tao just took advantage of this opportunity to tell everyone the basic rules of the football game, so that they could familiarize themselves with it first.

Facing a joint team composed mainly of the Army, Hong Tao's team clearly did not have an advantage. Everyone was not very good at playing, and this is when the discipline of the army showed its power, and the Messica Kingdom team poured five goals in the first half. Although it was more demonstrative, Hong Tao always attached the most importance to the game, and in order to make his team win, he began to play tricks, putting pressure on the missionaries who acted as referees.

These missionaries are darker than black whistles, and the gods have all said that it is handball, and it must be handball. As a result, the Mexica Kingdom team won a total of 11 penalties, and the United team was also sent off by two red cards, so by the end of the game, the Mexica Kingdom team only won one goal. In the end, the Mexica Kingdom team won the first Helios Cup 10-9. You can see that six of the eleven penalties were scored and the remaining four were scored in regular time.

"I protest! I protest! This is cheating, and Joseph's people can't be referees in the future! As soon as the game was over, Swan, the coach of the United team, rushed over to reason with Hong Tao. The reason why he didn't protest in the game was not that Swann didn't dare, but that he had already been given a red card by the referee, and he didn't even let him stand on the side of the court, and he was bombarded into the crowd as a spectator.

"You protest, I asked you to help me train the Marines, you hurt the public and private interests, secretly train them to play football, and you shouldn't be eligible for the competition. When I'm gone, you can find whoever you like to be the referee, and then send your champion to Da Song to see who is the best! "Winning through the black whistle, Hong Tao feels that it is normal, the players need to continue to practice their skills, and the referee must have a process of adapting to the rules.

"When are you leaving! Do you want to come back? As soon as he heard that Hong Tao was really leaving, Siwan was relieved from the bottom of his heart, and he couldn't help smiling, and he rubbed out from under his face.

"If it's fast, it's three months, if it's slow, it's half a year, if you're honest, I won't come back, if you toss all day, then I'll take the time to come back and see more." Swan looked forward to leaving by himself, and Hong Tao was not sad. This child is true and sincere, it is not that he does not want to stay here, but he really wants to build a kingdom by his own strength, and he will be bound here.

"Then don't worry, within three months, I promise to train the marines well." Siwan is very satisfied, hurry up and get the Great Demon King away, a thousand trained soldiers are not expensive, he can afford this price.

On the third day of the Spring Festival, Weng Ya, who was far away in Prince Edward Island, also rushed back, in addition to seeing his son during the holiday, he also brought a handwritten letter from Wennan to Hong Tao. The above describes the situation of several important ports in North Africa, which specifically mentions March 29, which is March 12 according to the Is-Lan calendar, and this day is called the Holy Age Day, which is a very important festival in the Is-Lan religion.

This year's festival is different from previous years, as the city of Seville welcomes two Berber religious leaders. The situation on the Iberian Peninsula is relatively calm, with Berbers and Crusaders facing each other north and south along the dividing line between the city of Toledo and the city of Toledo, and there has not been a large-scale battle for a long time. As the European church and aristocracy shifted their attention away from the peninsula, the threat to the Berbers became even less, and they did not want to bother to move north, and this large area of land was sufficient.

After reading the letter, Hong Tao immediately returned to his home, took out a small notebook from his small box containing the chart, turned a few pages on it, and wrote a letter in secret language. Then he took out a black piece of wood from the box, and walked out of the house to the Great Pyramid of Sun City alone.

"Bino, I need you to find a black-haired clergy from Europe to return to Europe on a mission. The chances of coming back alive are almost equal to zero, and there is no suitable candidate. "There were only two Sun God Sect priests in the Great Pyramid, and Hong Tao found one who was quite familiar and called him to the top of the tower.

"I'm black-haired, it's my duty to dedicate myself to the sun god, I'll go." After listening to Hong Tao's request, the priest directly lifted his hood, revealing black chestnut hair and a southern European face.

"Where are you from?" Hong Tao was not surprised by the performance of this sacrifice, the group of people under Joseph were not normal people, and could only be described in two words, fanatical! Extreme fanaticism!

"I'm from the Duchy of Burgunland, and my whole family has left that chilling land since my wife got sick. It wasn't until we met you, the Divine Messenger, that we felt like we were still human. Unfortunately, my wife could not see all this, she was already sick and dead, but I still had two children attending the clergy school in the city of Tula. Everything I do for God is so that they can be protected by God forever, and they will be proud of me. Bino once again expressed his determination, it was really determination, he didn't even ask Hong Tao what he was going to send him to do, he was ready to go back forever.

"Well, you return to Gena, change into the clothes of the natives, and then take a merchant ship to the port of Ceuta as a French merchant. Find the owner, Artsha, in an inn in the port called Artha, show her the item first, and then give her the letter. When you're done, she'll arrange your actions for the rest of the day. Remember, as soon as you ascend to the port of Ge, you are not called Piobino, but Pierre, a knight in the Dukedom of Brittany, and this bag contains his coat of arms and family identification. Whether you complete this quest or not, as long as you do your best, I will engrave your statue on the top wall of each pyramid. Let's go to the school to see your kids first, and then go to the pier early the next morning to board the boat. Hong Tao has no other choice, and the most reliable person to carry out this task can only be selected from Joseph's group. Normal people are even more unreliable, because the task itself is very abnormal.
