Chapter 1697: Landing on Jeju Island

Warships sailed along a short distance from the coast.

But in three or four days, an island appeared in front of Cao Shuo and others.

Seeing the island, Cao Zhang shouted happily and inexplicably: "Eldest brother, Sanhan has arrived." ”

"What kind of Samhan is there?" Cao Shuo said: "It's just Jeju Island. ”

"This island is nameless, and Childe actually said a name." Guo Zu said on the side: "From now on, we will call it Jeju Island." ”

It wasn't until Guo Zu spoke that Cao Shuo reacted.

The location where the island appeared in front of me was between Samhan and Izumo, and in terms of geographical location, it should be Jeju Island.

He just didn't expect that this island was actually the name he gave his life.

Hearing that it was not Sanhan, Cao Chang was a little disappointed.

"When will I get to Samhan?" Looking at the island that was getting closer and closer, Cao Zhang said: "After walking on the sea for a few days, it feels like a few years. ”

"Samhan is not far to the west." Cao Shuo said: "The scenery of Jeju Island is good, although it is not as good as Penglai, but it is also worth visiting. ”

"When the eldest brother comes here, it's not like going to war, it's like a trip to the mountains and rivers." Cao Zhang said.

Cao Shuo said: "Don't underestimate the overseas islands, whether we can achieve great things in the future, these islands are very important." ”

He then said to Guo Zu: "General Guo, once you take Sanhan and Liaodong, you will immediately order the navy to establish a seaport on Jeju Island. I will give you both Sakhalin and Jeju. ”

Guo Zu responded with a fist.

Seeing that Jeju Island was getting closer and closer, Cao Shuo ordered the warship to dock.

Dozens of warships docked on the beach of Jeju Island.

The first to dock was a warship full of naval soldiers.

After the ships docked, the soldiers who landed jumped onto the beach.

They formed a formation on the beach, watching their surroundings vigilantly.

Jeju Island is located in the sea east of Samhan and no one has ever landed here.

The island is covered with vegetation, and the whole island is verdant, like a green jewel set in the ocean.

Cao Shuo went ashore, looked at the green trees on the island, and asked Guo Jia, who had landed together, "Fengxiao, what do you think of here?" ”

"Very good." Guo Jia said: "I just don't know what Gongzi plans to use here for?" ”

"I have ordered the craftsman's workshop to be moved to Penglai." Cao Shuo said: "It's just Penglai, and the hoarding of materials is still a little smaller. Wouldn't it be better to open up Jeju Island and use it to hoard the weapons that have been built than to pile them up in Pengrai? ”

"It's still Childe's thoughtfulness." Guo Jia replied: "Jeju Island is not very close to Penglai, and I am afraid that there will be more ships coming and going to the sea in the future." ”

"It's like there's no one on this island." After greeting everyone, Cao Shuo walked into the woods on the island and said, "Maybe there isn't even a wild man." ”

"Isn't it just right that there is no one?" Guo Jia said: "Save the prince from worrying about conquering the savages. ”

"Or Fengxiao understands me." Cao Shuo smiled slightly and patted Guo Jia's arm gently.

The trees on Jeju Island are different from those on the southern islands.

The trees here grow in the north and are not as leafy as those on the southern islands.

The trunks of the trees reached into the sky, and in the canopy there were birds that were not afraid of people jumping and chirping.

"There's really no one here." Not long after walking, Cao Shuo said: "If there were people, the birds would not be so arrogant, and they could still jump around and chirp in front of our eyes." ”

"Childe is planning to stock up on supplies here, and the trees are a big problem." Guo Jia said: "If the trees are not cut down, it will be difficult to vacate the vacant land. ”

"Cutting is needed, but not all of it." Cao Shuo said: "We have to use this place, and at the same time we have to protect it. Only by managing Jeju Island well will it be able to serve as an overseas treasury for generations to come. ”

"Childe plans to place the craftsman's workshop in Penglai, and all the weapons manufactured will be sent to Jeju, I'm afraid it's not because he can't find a suitable place." Guo Jia whispered: "Childe is worried that the newly created weapons will be learned. ”

"Of course." Cao Shuo grinned: "The killing weapon I made must be used on the enemy's head." I can't let the whole world learn it and use it against my soldiers when the time comes. ”

Guo Jia echoed and followed Cao Shuo to the island loyally.

The number of naval officers and men who landed was in the thousands, and some remained on the warships.

Thousands of people went up to the island, burrowed into the woods, and searched all the way, but did not find even half of the aborigines.

As he was walking forward, a naval sergeant hurried over.

When he arrived at Cao Shuo's side, the soldier said, "Qi Yu Gongzi, I found a cave ahead. ”

"Caves?" Cao Shuo said, "Take me over." ”

The soldiers retreated to the side, and Cao Shuo took Guo Jia, Guo Zu, and Cao Zhang under his guidance to the place where the cave was found.

After walking for about a stick of incense, Cao Shuo and the others saw a mountain peak appear in front of them.

Seeing this mountain, Guo Zu said to Cao Shuo: "Childe, why does this mountain look so similar to ......?"

"Like Mt. Fuji in Izumo." Cao Shuo took his words and said.

"Exactly." Guo Zu said: "Both mountains look so weird. ”

"It's not that it's weird, it's that they're all volcanoes." "Jeju Island is also an island formed by a volcanic eruption, and although this volcano hasn't erupted since, no one can say when it will lose its temper," Cao said. ”

"Volcano?" Cao Zhang was stunned and asked, "What is it?" ”

"It's a mountain that breathes fire." Cao Shuo explained to him as briefly as possible.

"Can the mountain breathe fire?" Cao Zhang grinned and said to Cao Shuo: "I believe everything the eldest brother says, and I really don't ...... when I say this."

Cao Zhang didn't finish speaking, Guo Jia on the side said: "What the eldest son said is not out of nowhere, I have also read the classics that record the mountain erupting fire. ”

Guo Jia proved Cao Shuo's statement, and Cao Zhang did not dare to question it anymore.

"Where is the cave?" Cao Shuo asked the soldier who had led them here.

"Right ahead." The guard replied, "Please come with me." ”

Following the soldiers and walking forward for a while, when they reached the mountain pass, Cao Shuo and the others really saw a cave.

It's still different from other caves.

There are many stalactites hanging from the cave entrance, which is not as neat as the natural caves of other mountains.

"Go in and have a look." After greeting everyone, Cao Shuo was the first to enter the cave.

"Eldest brother, I'm exploring the way ahead." Cao Zhang jumped out from behind him and blocked the front.

"We don't know what's in the cave yet." Cao Shuo said, "Be careful. ”

"I understand." Cao Zhang responded, drew his sword, and carefully opened the way for Cao Shuo and the others in front.
