"In the second year of Zhenguan, May and the sixth year.

The fleet weathered the strongest storm ever, and for the first time under the terrifying forces of nature, I discovered that man had no power to fight against it.

This time we suffered heavy losses, each battleship had large and small damage, and fifteen of the ships leaked, the masts of three ships were blown off by the storm, and one large ship "Lucky" overturned, and no one could rescue in that situation, so after surviving the storm, General Niu announced that all the crew members on the "Lucky" were killed, and no one survived.

I don't know much of the people on the 'Lucky', but there is a best friend of mine on that battleship, his name is Chen Erniu, he is from Youzhou, I heard him say that he was the first to follow the disciples of Guigu to see the world, or the Youzhou City Management Team, he is a very good person, he is smiling every day, I can become friends with him because there was a captain's meeting, he stood next to me, we captains in charge of the boiler room generally have no tasks, so the meeting is always very boring.

That time Chen Erniu took the initiative to chat with me, only then did I know that we were originally managing the boiler, but he was on the 'lucky', and I was on the 'Hongyun', because of the same reason for work, we soon became good friends, Chen Erniu likes to listen to "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" the most, his dream is to become a general like Zhao Zilong, in the chaos of the army, kill seven in and seven out, I hope he can realize this wish in the next life, today the boiler room needs to be carefully inspected and repaired, "Logbook" is written here, in memory of my best friend, Chen Erniu, I will always remember you. - Excerpt from "Zhang Quandan's Navigation Log"

"In the second year of Zhenguan, the seventh day of May.

The fleet has almost repaired the damage caused by the storm, and the leaky ships have been temporarily repaired, as for the three ships whose masts were blown off, General Niu ordered to abandon the ship, and the soldiers on it all abandoned the ship with tears, after all, these big ships have sailed so far with everyone, and they already have feelings.

After abandoning the ship, the rest of the ships became more crowded, and the supplies became more and more scarce, I remember three days ago each person was still one cake, now it has been reduced to half, and the taste has been much worse, often encountered insects in the cake.

The only good news in the fleet was that the storm provided plenty of fresh water, and some of my fellow countrymen in the boiler room often joked that at least they didn't have to drink urine.

The amount of fresh water is very sufficient, when the storm came, General Wei Chi took the lead, and tied up a dozen large barrels by himself, and now it is basically full of water, so it can be said that the fresh water we drink is all desperately exchanged for by him alone.

The weather is fine today, and the Lord will order all the damp bedding to be taken to the deck to be hung to dry, which is really good news, my cabin is always smelling musty now, and I can finally rest well in the evening. - Excerpt from "Zhang Quandan's Navigation Log"

"In the second year of Zhenguan, the eighth year of May.

The bread is obviously much smaller in a few days, I was woken up by hunger yesterday, and the stomach was burning uncomfortably, although the taste of the cake was very strange, and there were a lot of small white insects in it, but at this time I felt that everything I ate was very fragrant.

In the evening of this evening, one of my fellow villagers secretly brought a piece of cured meat, and my eyes were straight when I saw it, and he told me that he had taken it from the natives of South America, and had been hiding it under the cupboard, and now he was so hungry that he took it out and ate it with me.

I used to think that my fellow villager was stingy, but I didn't expect him to remember me at such a moment of life and death, I was moved to tears at that time, and promised him to ensure that he would be prosperous and rich after returning to Datang.

That night, the familiar humming of the boiler room stopped, and I thought something was wrong, so I hurried downstairs and saw a dozen coal furnace workers standing a little dazed with shovels, and my fellow countryman was among them, and he told me that the last piece of coal in the boiler room had also been burned. - Excerpt from "Zhang Quandan's Navigation Log"

"In the second year of Zhenguan, May is nine.

The coal in the boiler room was burned, and the news spread like a plague through the fleet, and I saw that everyone's faces seemed to be gray, and the idiom "face like ashes" could not have been more appropriate.

Today is the last time to distribute food, this time it is actually a new cake, the taste is very good, although there is only a small piece, but it is like eating the delicious food in the sky, the last U-turn meal, can not be shabby.

Many workers in the boiler room cried as they ate, and many said that they did not want to die, and that they still had wives and children at home.

General Niu personally came to inspect him, looking at his emaciated face, I think he is the most crying person in the fleet, after a lot of hardships, but in the end it still fell short, I think his pressure and despair are greater than any of us.

The people in the fleet who shouldn't cry cried heartbreakingly, but the people who should cry the most gritted their teeth and persevered. - Excerpt from "Zhang Quandan's Navigation Log"

"In the second year of Zhenguan, May 10.

There was no dry food distributed today, so we had to figure out our own way, we took off the animal skins of the armor, and then broke up some of the wooden decorations in the house, used them as fuel, and boiled a pot of animal skin soup, which tasted very strange, and the animal skins chewed very chewy, but they were very hungry, and I ate a piece of animal skins, and I felt not so hungry, and I didn't have the feeling of burning fire in my stomach.

There were a lot of people in the fleet, and there were many who did not eat today, they just drank some water, they looked weak, their faces were pale, they had a lot of spots on their arms, their teeth began to loosen, and the nautical code made it clear that they were suffering from scurvy.

As long as you eat some fresh fruits, vitamin C supplements can be cured, but we don't even have food now, where can we get fruits? I sympathize with them, but I can't do anything about it. - Excerpt from "Zhang Quandan's Navigation Log"

"In the second year of Zhenguan, May 11.

There were more and more people suffering from sepsis in the fleet, and many of them became irritable.

I don't think everyone's mood is going to be very good in this desperate environment, I always think I'm a good temper, but at this time I also want to scold my mother, there is no food in my stomach, hunger, cold, despair, where is the land? Where exactly have we been? It's been five days, and I shudder at the thought of all of us dying on this desolate sea.

O land! Where are you!! - Excerpt from "Zhang Quandan's Navigation Log"

In the second year of Zhenguan, May 12.

Is this our last struggle? There were already dozens of people in the fleet who were fainting from hunger, and General Niu ordered to take out some of the overseas seeds that had been obtained through great hardship and boil them into porridge for everyone to eat.

Several historians hugged General Niu's leg and begged not to eat those seeds, which were the lives of the people of the Tang Dynasty.

General Niu had tears in the corners of his eyes at that time, saying that our lives are also the lives of the people of the Tang Dynasty.

Just as we were all about to kneel down and express our hearts to General Xie, we heard the familiar sound of a trumpet, and then a little servant rushed down like a fly, shouting to find land.

When I heard that, I felt a great sense of joy rush over me, and then my eyes went black and I fell unconscious

Xu Yang waited at the beach as usual today, and as time went by, he was now waiting at the beach for longer and longer, from half an hour at the beginning, to three or four hours at the beach every day.

"Big brother, why haven't they come back yet?" Cheng Chumo asked with some confusion.

Xu Yang's face was also full of gloom at this time, he looked at the endless empty sea with concern, and said softly: "Maybe they just encountered something and delayed a little." ”

"Oh," Cheng Chumo didn't ask any more.

Xu Yang habitually raised the telescope in his hand, wanting to take another look at the sea, although he had been disappointed countless times, Xu Yang still held on to that glimmer of hope.

Slowly looking towards the sea, dozens of black dots R1152 suddenly appeared in the telescope
