Although Sima Zhi insisted on search and rescue, and Qi Tao and Tian Zifang also cooperated to send a lot of manpower, everyone thought in their hearts that Zhao Zheng was dead, and if he survived under that kind of heavenly might, the warships were lucky, not to mention the small fishing boats. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

As a result, the coalition lost eight ships, killed and wounded 10,000 people, and Gushan's missing men and ships were tacitly recorded, and finally Sima Zhi also acquiesced in Zhao Zheng's death.

The search and rescue lasted for two days and nothing was found, so he continued to go north, although Ji Daliu was unwilling, there was no way, the five ships searched and rescued for a long time, and there was not even a fragment of the hull.

I don't know if I'm alive, I don't know if I'm dead.

"The lord will not die", Ji Daliu stubbornly believed that he would rush to Cang'er County at full speed and get in touch with Ji Chong. And Zhao Zheng, he believes that he will arrive next.

However, unfortunately, Ji Daliu guessed wrong.

Zhao Zheng arrived early.

The ship with a deep draft in the wind and rain occupies an advantageous position, and the heavy hull is like a tumbler, no matter how it shakes, it does not tilt.

Zhao Zheng's renovated fishing boat undoubtedly suffered, and when the storm came, it was Gushan who was the first to capsize. A whole boatload of people was covered by the oncoming waves, and when they reappeared, they were broken planks. Most of the ship's hull was swept to the bottom of the sea, never to see the light of day.

Ji Daliu commanded the two ships in the same way, but he was lucky and was not covered by the big waves. At the critical moment, Ji Daliu decisively abandoned the ship, and the crew jumped into the sea, and most of them escaped with the cork armor on their bodies.

If you want to do a good job, you must first sharpen your tools.

He was willing to spend money on the soldiers, so that although the ship was destroyed, no one would die. And he was willing to take risks with himself, leaving Zhao Zheng with a glimmer of life.

Five ships, three firearms, and two supplies, Zhao Zheng, He Miao, and Ji Daliu each sat on a boat.

Thousands of catties of artillery were hidden at the bottom of Zhao Zheng's warehouse, and thousands of catties of ammunition were hidden at the bottom of He Miao's warehouse.

Because of secrecy, Zhao Zheng and He Miao put their weapons at the bottom of the warehouse, and the guards who were desperately waiting here and did not dare to leave became the cornerstone of the ship. Two ships miraculously survived and were swept into another, larger current.

Just as Sima Zhi and the others were praying, Zhao Zheng and the others were swept away for a hundred miles, and the dark clouds thinned layer by layer, and finally ushered in the sun.

Zhao Zheng went up from the bottom of the cabin to the deck, the guardrail installed by the fishing boat had been torn, and the water on the deck was collecting towards the small holes on the side of the boat, and it flowed clean after a while.

"My lord, our ship was found three miles away on the left, and it belonged to General He Miao."

Zhao Zheng took the binoculars and clearly saw He Miao standing at the bow of the boat beckoning.

"Set sail, send the flag, and look for other boats."

Looking at the vast sea around him, except for He Miao's boat, all of them were dark blue with water and sky, and there was no trace of other boats, not even a single plank floating.

"Oh no, eighty percent of us were swept away by the storm and lost our direction, find Ban Zhou to see if he can determine the direction."

After the storm, I don't know where I am, this kind of thing is not uncommon even in the 21st century in the previous life, the sea is boundless, the storm is relentless, who knows where it will drift.

The boat will come up from the bottom of the warehouse after a while, inspired by Zhao Zheng to add a lot of waterproof components when refitting the boat, although the transformation of the fishing boat is smaller, but close the hatch, it is almost a secret room, even if the boat overturns, it is difficult for the boat to sink within a certain period of time.

Escaping from a delicate spoon, Ban Zhou found a flat place, turned it with his hand, and when he stopped, the spoon pointed to the east of due north.

In the other world, the North Star is due north, and the place pointed by Sinan is more easterly.

"Bring the map"

After determining the direction, Zhao Zheng roughly found his location on the map, but he was not sure if it was here. The map of the Warring States period has no latitude and longitude, no scale, this picture is completely made by Zhao Zheng based on the memory of fishermen, and the real one is for reference only.

He Miao's boat caught up, and he also went to the ship to inquire about the situation, and saw Zhao Zheng sketching almost frantically, and after a while, a strange map appeared, looking like a rooster.

Worried that Zhao Zheng would fall ill again, He Miao asked tentatively: "Lord, where am I now, what you have drawn is the map of Dongping and Qi Kingdom?" ”

Zhao Zheng didn't speak, and continued to paint, sometimes closing his eyes and contemplating, sometimes opening his mouth to sigh, and walking like this for most of the hour, there was a string of calculations next to the "rooster".

"Whew, alas, my legs, my legs are numb"

Zhao Zheng shouted, supported by He Miao.

said with a smile: "The hard work pays off, and when it is so stirred up by the storm, those long-forgotten calculations emerge.

This picture on the ground is my conjecture, but let's look at it this way, and those equations are my calculations of my current position.

On the fifth day, after turning north, we actually went in the northeast direction, and we were blown away by a strong wind, and seeing that the current under the ship was faster, I estimated that the current was going east.

Therefore, we are now in the eastward part of the shipping lane, and if we continue to go north, we will not only not be able to reach Dongping, but we will not even be able to find land, so we must drive northwest. ”

"Northwest"

He Miao said worriedly: "Even if we get to land, there are two of the five ships left, which add up to less than half of the people when they came, and our supply ships are gone, so I am afraid that if we encounter the Hu people, the brothers will not even be able to raise their knives." ”

Up to now, Zhao Zheng still hasn't told He Miao about the artillery, and only said that it is a new type of sky-shaking thunder. Even if it was Wei Xian, Zhao Zheng asked Zhao Zhou to notify him twenty days after he went to sea, and he had already landed at that time.

"It doesn't matter, as long as everyone is still there, even if there are only fists left, I have a way to feed everyone.

The two ships of soldiers were ordered to take turns fishing in the next few days, and in addition, they stopped boiling soy milk and turned all the remaining beans into bean sprouts.

Save fresh water, collect dew at dawn, evaporate seawater when it's fine, and use all our methods to hold on until landing. ”

Zhao Zheng said that he was full of pride, and those Gushan soldiers who had long regarded him as a god were also in good spirits, and the lord did not slack off, so they had no reason to slack off.

"Humble and commanded, solid mountain will win"

"Solid mountains will win"

I don't know who took the lead, everyone cheered, rolled up their sleeves one by one, and followed the experienced sailors to learn how to control the ship.

"He Miao, come in with me."

Seeing that this steady subordinate was still full of worry, Zhao Zheng had the heart to tell him the secret of the artillery, otherwise he would risk his life at some point.

went straight to the bottom of the warehouse and asked the guards to retreat, Zhao Zheng pointed to a box and said, "Open it and take a look, don't be discouraged." ”

What can the earth-shaking thunder do, it may be useful to deal with the infantry phalanx and scare the cavalry horses, but then facing the high city walls, who can throw the sky-shaking thunder to the head of the city.

"What is this?"

He Miao was stunned, a bronze tube more than three meters long, could it be used to hit the earth-shaking thunder to the head of the city.

"The subordinates are stupid, please make it public."

Zhao Zheng patted him on the shoulder and said with a smile: "This time it was a blessing in disguise and avoided the coalition forces, so I dared to use this iron guy, by the way, which boxes at the bottom of your warehouse are not wet, right?" ”

Avoiding the coalition forces before daring to use it, and dividing the firearm into two parts, so carefully guarding against the leakage of information, how powerful should it be.

"The subordinates are well preserved, and none of them have been damaged."

"Then what are you afraid of, raise the sails and speed up, land in Dongping, and the brothers will grab meat with me to eat."

He Miao: "......"

Without the elbow of the coalition army, Zhao Zheng was not clumsy, and spread the eight sails on the ship, and the longitudinal and horizontal sails were scattered among them, and the speed became faster, more than doubled.

After about seven days, Zhao Zheng was the first to land, but the situation was not like that. The three counties of Dongping are the land of Donghu fish and rice, and the people are very wealthy, but what they see in front of them is a barren area, looking at the black woods, and even seeing the vast snow-capped mountains with binoculars.

Broad-leaved forests, coniferous forests, mixed coniferous and broad-leaved forests, and snow-capped mountains with white hats, I have not heard of them in this life, but I have seen them in my previous life, on the Yalu River.

"Oops, it's off course, let's take the brothers to hunt wild boars." Zhao Zheng said self-deprecatingly.

"The whole army obeyed the order and camped on the spot, and each lieutenant battalion sent a team into the mountains to hunt, and the scout team released to investigate, trying to catch as many prisoners as possible."

Zhao Zhengdu didn't know what to do, and according to his guess, he encountered ocean currents when he sailed later, but he successfully avoided the Dongping Peninsula, and the place where he was located was most likely Donghu Beizhou, the fief of Ashinabu.
