"And what kind of ship is this?" Zheng Zhilong's Russian is already very slippery, he originally had a strong language foundation, and now he can not only speak in Russian, but also begin to learn Russian characters and read Russian books. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

"It's a schooner." Speaking of shipbuilding, Dezhnev knew everything, he said: "It was designed and built by the Dutch, and the main characteristics were light and fast, and they used it to gain the upper hand in slave trading and naval warfare." Well, now the British use the most...... They were mainly used as privateers. ”

Zheng Zhilong hurriedly said: "I remember, the Dutch have some merchant ships in Jakarta with this design, double masts, the foremast is shorter than the rear mast, both masts are hung with longitudinal sails, sometimes the foremast is hung with side sails, but most of them are hung inclined spinnakers or mule sails, there are not many Dutch sails of this kind, maybe they are not very useful in the South Seas." ”

This is the first time Zheng Zhilongtou has shown his talent, Dezhnev glanced at him, wiped the thick and thick beard under his lips, and then said: "Zheng, it seems that you have indeed walked a lot of places." ”

"yes." Zheng Zhilong said with a smile: "I have been to Manila and Jakarta, usually in Hirado Port, I see at least 100 sailing ships every day, and I have seen the sailing fleets of Spain, Portugal, the Netherlands, and the United Kingdom in Europe. ”

"I thought the Baltic and Mediterranean Seas were the centers of world trade." Dezhnev finally showed a mixture of curiosity and envy, and he said: "If I have the chance, I will also go to your South China Sea to have a look." As a navyman, it's a shame not to go to the South China Sea. ”

"You'll definitely go." Zheng Zhilong said with a straight face: "Petrin has returned, our envoy Mo Zongtong has gone to see him, and we also want to see your governor, we have signed an agreement with Yusheng and your official envoys of the Russian State, you, as well as your subordinates and technicians, are all packaged to serve us and Yusheng for three years, which is stipulated in the contract." ”

"I said I couldn't leave Tomsk!" Dezhnev exclaimed: "Our expedition to the north cannot be interrupted!" ”

"The tsar's orders will not work either?" Zheng Zhilong sneered: "We showed you the map, along the north side are all dense forests and mountains, all frozen areas, and it is impossible for you to find an ice-free port there." ”

Dezhnev was silent with a straight face, and Zheng Zhilong said again: "Now in addition to your European mainland, the most lively sea in the world is the South China Sea of China and the so-called South China Sea region, as an excellent shipbuilding expert and naval officer, you don't go to the South Seas and the South Seas to show your skills, what is the strength of staying here and the sea full of ice?" If you want to find an ice-free port, you can also explore the north from the southern seas, and when you are working with Yusheng, you may have your own ships or even fleets, as long as your duties allow, explore the ports in the north that do not belong to my Daming territory, you are free to do so. ”

"A word?"

"Well, that's a deal."

The weather was cold, Zheng Zhilong felt his palms damp, he was talking nonsense, Zhang Han had also seen the map given to the mission, a large number of places in the north were the hometown of Nuer Gandusi, Zhang Han once pointed to the map and sighed very emotionally, saying that the ancestral hometown is now all abandoned, which is really an embarrassing thing for future generations. If you can defeat Jianyu in the future and recover the hometown of Nuer Gandusi, you will have no regrets in life......

Judging from the map, there are indeed many places that can be used as ports, but no matter what the port is, as long as Zhang Han has enough strength, these old hairmen want to get a piece of the pie in Zhang Han's hands, which is really equivalent to seeking skin with the tiger.

The longer he was in Yusheng, the more Zheng Zhilong felt that Zhang Han's wrist was too powerful, and his group of people were taken north by Mo Zongtong and others for the past few months, and they had been invisibly smoothly absorbed into the system of He Yusheng, at least he didn't have any unusual thoughts, I believe that He Bin and Gan Hui and others were the same, if Zhang Han asked them and Li Guozhu to go back to Pinghu, or hired them to go to Nanyang, what the current situation is, it is really difficult to say.

Dezhnev glared and stretched out his hand, Zheng Zhilong's heart was crossed, and he decided to deceive the person first, he stretched out his hand and shook Dezhnev heavily.

"Deal." Dezhnev said with a depressed face: "As long as the city signs a formal agreement with you, we can leave with you at any time." ”

"Okay." Zheng Zhilong grinned, looked at the keel of the sailboat in front of him, and said: "What kind of schooner is this, I think it is very useful, the latest design drawings, but don't forget to bring it." ”

Looking at the look on Dezhnev's face, Zheng Zhilong couldn't help laughing.

……

Mo Zongtong and Zheng Zhilong and others returned to the station almost after a short time apart, and the snow really stopped completely at noon, the sun hung in the air, and the wind gradually became stronger, but it was not too cold, and even because of the fierce sun, the cold wind blowing on people seemed to carry a little warmth.

There were a few Russians hanging out in the street market, and there was nothing unusual outside, and there was nothing to pay attention to.

The place where the mission lives and the governor's palace and the barracks of the garrison are on the same street, this is a typical Russian city, there are several sculptures in the middle of the street, and some rough scale landscapes, the most magnificent building is an Orthodox church, many people in the mission have visited, people are also very curious about the Russian God, in the eyes of the Chinese this may be a powerful god, similar to the status of the Chinese Jade Emperor, but this god is slightly lonely, only what holy son and a number of angels as helpers, It's not like the Jade Emperor, not only there are 100,000 heavenly soldiers, the four heavenly kings, the four heavenly kings, but also the Taishang Laojun West Queen Mother and the Buddha to help him, which is like this old Maozi's God, lonely and desolate, and even a heavenly court is not majestic.

"Sit down, everybody."

Mo Zongtong strode into the house, pressed his hands weakly, and asked Zhang Xuwen and Zheng Zhilong and others to sit down, although he was a positive envoy, but he maintained the habit of being the shopkeeper of the branch in Heyusheng, and he was very polite to anyone, but fortunately, his style of dealing with things was different, simple and clear, fast and accurate, so that everyone was very convinced.

The mission was able to be trapped in this situation and did not suffer too much, and even opened up the situation, and Mo Zongtong, the envoy, of course, made great contributions.

"That'......s how it is," Mo Zongtong frowned and said the matter, and after finishing speaking, he turned his head to Zheng Zhilong: "Brother Yiguan, this time I persuaded Dezhnev to write down a great credit for you, and after returning to Li Zhuang, the lord will definitely reward you." ”

Zheng Zhilong still has a ghost hidden in his heart, where can he dare to be too proud, besides, He Bin and others do not have a good stubble, he is very afraid that he will be too proud and attract dissatisfaction, it is inevitable that someone will run to Dezhnev to ask about the inside story, and at the moment he owed a little reserved, and replied: "Everything is for the cause of adults." ”

"That's a good point." Only then did Mo Zongtong turn to everyone again, and said in a deep voice: "How about it, let's talk about your opinions?" ”

He Bin hurriedly said, "Master Mo, do you think what Petrin said is the truth?" ”

Mo Zongtong smiled: "I can't completely distinguish the truth and falsehood of other people's words, but I feel that it is at least ninety percent true." ”

"The current situation," He Bin frowned, "It's a bit similar to Ban Chao in the Later Han Dynasty." ”

"Indeed, really."

"When He Bin said this, I also remembered."

Mo Zongtong really remembered this incident, and couldn't help but look at He Bin twice, He Bin looked proud at this time, to say that he was well-read and knowledgeable, Zhang Xuwen seemed to be half a beat slower than him.

The so-called Later Han Dynasty is the Eastern Han Dynasty that later generations said, and the Western Han Dynasty is also known as the former Han Dynasty.

Ban Chao was ordered to lead 36 people to envoy Shanshanguo, at the beginning of the king of his country was very enthusiastic, and then the attitude changed abruptly, Ban Chao found that the Xiongnu also sent a messenger over, at that time the Western Regions was the battlefield of the Xiongnu and the Han Dynasty wrestling, the power of the big countries affected the small countries, the Xiongnu were strong, the countries of the Western Regions fell to the Xiongnu, the strength of the Han Dynasty was strong, they were to the Han Dynasty, these small countries, most of them were just one or two cities on the way to the oasis, the population ranged from tens of thousands to hundreds of thousands of people, and the national strength was weak. It is really difficult to be caught between the two super forces, and Shanshanguo's attitude is not surprising, but Ban Chao's response is even more decisive...... In the middle of the night, these thirty-six people attacked the camp of the Hun envoys at night with Ban Chao, and killed more than 30 of the more than 100 Hun envoys, and the rest were blocked in the house, set on fire with torches, and burned all of them to death......

After that, Ban Chao's reputation in the Western Regions is known to everyone, small countries are like this, admiration is the decisive and daring hero and the forces behind it, Ban Chao's most brilliant place is that you can not send a soldier without the Han Dynasty, just with the strength of the Western Regions countries to quell the rebellion of many small countries, the so-called "raze to raze" in the hands of Ban Chao is the real shine, with the lofty status of the Han envoy, gather the strength of a number of small countries, to strike more and less, success again and again, and finally to care for more than 50 countries in the Western Regions, Firmly in the hands of the Han Dynasty, he can be described as a heroic figure among the Han people and deserves to be admired by all generations.

When it came to Ban Chao, everyone present felt a little excited.

The current situation is indeed similar to that of Banchao, the overall situation has been mostly decided, the tsar and the governor Gapetlin and other merchant forces are in favor of cooperation with Yusheng, only a few Cossacks are against it, and its background has fallen, which is not as good as even the Huns......

"You see, are they going to borrow a knife to kill someone?" Zheng Zhilong put away his proud thoughts after the meritorious service just now, and asked in a deep voice.
