In the study, Huang Zupei quietly waited for Deng Haonan's decision.

Na Haonan had a lot of thoughts in his heart, and after Huang Zupei's narration, Mao Wenlong's family history is nothing more than one. The homeless gathered a group of Han people who had become slaves of the country, and took the opportunity to attack Zhenjiang and Lushun in the Later Jin Dynasty, and then catered to the political ideas of the Ming court bureaucracy, so that they could soar all the way to today's Pingliao General Army.

To put it bluntly, Mao Wenlong is just a speculator.

It's a pity that the current Mao Wenlong was beaten very badly by Nurhachi, not to mention losing Liaodong, retreating to North Korea's Phi Island, and completely relying on the signboard of the Pingliao General Army to eat in North Korea.

At this time, Mao Wenlong, after three consecutive defeats in the Battle of Xianxing, the Battle of Yizhou, and the Battle of Qinghe, has actually lost the role of containing Houjin, because soon Nurhachi will go on an expedition to the Ming Dynasty, which shows that Mao Wenlong's threat to Houjin is already minimal.

It's just that the reason why it was not destroyed was because of the protection of North Korea.

When Nurhachi returns from the expedition next year, Huang Taiji will go on an expedition to Korea, and at that time Mao Wenlong will lose his last role, monitoring Korea for the Ming court.

Mao Wenlong's subordinate Deng Haonan didn't know, but he knew that the three traitors who destroyed the Ming Dynasty were Gongshun Wang Kong Youde, Huaishun Wang Geng Zhongming, and Zhishun Wang Shang Kexi, these three "Sanshun Kings" in the early Qing Dynasty were deeply impressed, thinking that although Wu Sangui was also an executioner later, but people waited for Chongzhen to die before surrendering, and this Sanshun King was really a prince who was exchanged for the blood of the Han people.

Whether Mao Wenlong is suspected of collaborating with the enemy and treason, Di Haonan doesn't know, he just regrets that Yuan Chonghuan is stupid, killed Mao Wenlong but left the Shang Kexi brothers of Guanglu Island, Mao Wenlong's sons Mao Chenglu, Kong Youde and Geng Zhongming and others centered on the family faction, which led to civil strife on Phi Island and harmed for thousands of years.

Take refuge in Mao Wenlong?

Don't even think about it!

Na Haug then said: "Mao Wenlong is just a paper tiger now, he can do it, Zu Pei thinks I can do it?" ”

Di Haonan's words touched Huang Zupei's heartstrings.

In fact, Huang Zupei is not optimistic about Mao Wenlong. He knew Mao Wenlong, so he naturally knew what kind of person Mao Wenlong was. A person who has no pen and ink on his chest will always be a clay embryo who can't support the wall.

Huang Zupei matched Na Haonan with Mao Wenlong, not only because he wanted Deng Haonan to have more room for development, but also because he had a certain future.

said a thousand ways and ten thousand, Deng Haonan's place was able to envelop people, and the current power developed was nothing more than interests and hopes.

Na Haonan gave his subordinates visible benefits, and gave them a hopeful hope. Therefore, Deng Haonan's subordinates swore to follow him for the hope that this future could become a reality. Everyone is not selfless, they have their own bottom line of interests, and the person who can expand and unite the bottom line of everyone's interests is their leader.

Na Haonan is undoubtedly a leader in this regard.

Huang Zupei is convinced of this!

"With the commander's current strength, if you can build a city in Liaodong, the imperial court will also give you a big official!"

Huang Zupei's voice fell, Deng Haonan laughed, and said, "That's it!" We can do it ourselves, so why should we be attached to others? ”

Huang Zupei nodded, and Deng Haonan smiled: "Now is not the time to think about this, only when our strength is strong enough, can we have the right to speak, isn't it easy to want an official at that time?" Perhaps, the court will take the initiative to beg us? ”

Huang Zupei said: "What the commander said is very true! It's me who is too obsessed! ”

"Not really!" Di Haonan said: "At present, our goal is first to dominate the three southeast coastal provinces, if we can use Mao Wenlong's route to the north, it will be of great help to our trade!" ”

Huang Zupei nodded and said, "I think most of Mao Wenlong's use is provided by North Korea." So we can get through the network of Mao Wenlong. Open up the North Korean trade, so that our goods will not have to worry about no sales, after all, relying only on the Zhao family in Manila is not a long-term solution! ”

Na Haonan understood that Huang Zupei was reminding himself that he could not hand over his financial lifeline to Zhao Jiakong.

He nodded and said, "That's good!" You reply to Mao Wenlong's envoys, do business with them first, sell them artillery and ammunition at a preferential price, and let Mao Wenlong help us open up the North Korean trade route! If he talks about asking us to join, can we give them a perfunctory touch? ”

Huang Zupei was overjoyed, although Deng Haonan did not join Mao Wenlong, but it was not easy to offend people, and he agreed to do business with Mao Wenlong, which was a good opportunity for buffering.

This Mao Wenlong is short of artillery and ammunition, so he is not afraid that he will not agree.

Next, Di Haonan remembered that the business he wanted to do today was to find two other islands deep into the Pacific Ocean.

At nine o'clock in the morning, Deng Haonan and Huang Zupei boarded the Black Pearl and left the Xiaonanshan Naval Base.

The Black Pearl sailed all the way southeast, and soon entered the deep sea.

It has entered the Pacific Ocean, and the sea is gradually getting bigger and rougher.

Na Haonan stood on the bow of the ship, looking out at the vast Pacific Ocean.

The ancients were full of fear of the sea, and fishermen also fished closely in the coastal waters, and did not dare to enter the depths of the Pacific Ocean.

The two islands that Deng Haonan was looking for were located in the northeast of Taiwan and the southeast of Shannan Island, which had entered the deep sea of the Pacific Ocean, so no navigator had discovered them, so naturally they would not have been marked on the chart.

All the officers and soldiers on the Black Pearl learned that Deng Haonan was going to take them to find two undiscovered islands, and they were immediately excited, because of the feeling of being full of adventure.

However, the Black Pearl had been sailing for a long time, and had not seen any islands until noon.

Di Haonan also muttered a little in his heart, according to his calculations, at the speed of the Black Pearl, he should have seen Shiheng Island and Iriomote Island at this time.

It was time to measure latitude and longitude at noon, and Lin Feng, Xue Muhua, Xiao Nai and other officers went to the deck together, took out the projection quadrant invented by Deng Haonan, and determined the latitude.

After testing the latitude, and then according to Deng Haonan's longitude perpendicular to the latitude, the latitude and longitude of Nanshan were used as the origin of the coordinates to calculate the latitude and longitude at this time.

Xiao Nai took out the chart and marked the numbers on it.

Lin Feng took it and looked at it, and with some doubts, he took it to Deng Haonan and said, "Principal, we are sailing in the southeast direction, you look at the longitude at this time, how is it similar to that of Dongfan Island?" Dongfan Island is in the southwest of Xiaonanshan! ”

Na Haonan was also stunned when he saw it, if the longitude was not miscalculated, then the Black Pearl was sailing towards Taiwan at this time.

Go sideways

How so?

That Hao Nan's face was full of doubts, this gap is too big!

Even if the charts of this period were very inaccurate, and sometimes the direction and location of the islands were very different from the actual situation, Deng Haonan had already drawn the longitude and latitude of the earth in advance, and then began to draw maps on the latitude and longitude, which was absolutely no problem.

"Keep going and see if there are any small islands nearby?"

The order was given, and the Black Pearl moved on.

At this time, Deng Haonan began to think about where the problem was. I saw that the Black Pearl took the "" route, because the angle of the wind will produce different thrust every time the Black Pearl turns, maybe this will lead to an error in the direction!

It's just that even if there is an error in the small direction of the Black Pearl, it can't change its course from southeast to south-west!

"There's an island up ahead!"

The scout above Wangdou saw an island and shouted loudly.

"Get over there!"

Na Haonan hurriedly ordered the Black Pearl to pass, he wanted to see if the island was the small island in his impression.

The Black Pearl stopped a mile away from the island, not daring to approach because it didn't know the depths of the water.

Huang Zupei, Lin Feng and the others were a little disappointed after seeing the small island in front of them.

This small island is sweet potato-shaped, about a kilometer long from east to west, about a kilometer wide from north to south, and an area of about square kilometers. The terrain is flat in the north and steep in the south. The central mountain range runs east and west. The highest peak is strong meters above sea level and is located in the middle; There are also a number of peaks with elevation of Jinmi, 10,000 8 meters, and Fengmi, as well as several major streams.

This is the Diaoyu Islands!

Na Haonan didn't know how many times he had seen the films, televisions and photos of the Diaoyu Islands, so he recognized it at a glance.

It's really the wrong course!

At this time, Na Haonan had already determined that his course had deviated from the intended direction.

Huang Zupei said: "Is this the island that the commander is talking about? ”

"Of course not!"

That Haonan wanted to say no, but it was Lin Feng who said it for him first, and Lin Feng continued: "The principal is talking about two islands that are several times larger than Shannan Island and Xiaonanshan Island, how can it be this island?" ”

In fact, Lin Feng was also playing a drum in his heart, but he still believed what Di Haonan said!

"This is the Diaoyu Islands!" Di Haonan said: "Our course is off! A day further from here, the waterway is Dongfan Island! ”

Na Haonan's words fell, and Xue Muhua, Xiao Nai and others, as well as a bridge staff officer, suddenly breathed a sigh of relief.

If the principal, whom I have always admired, fails to deliver on his promises, I am afraid that he will be disappointed a lot.

Now that Deng Haonan was sure that this was not the island he was looking for, they were already confident. Therefore, a group of people hurriedly took pen and ink and drew the general shape of the Diaoyu Islands, which will be used as a reference for navigation in the future.

Di Haonan has a very clear memory of the latitude and longitude of Diaoyu Island, and immediately said that he wrote it down with everyone and marked it on the chart.

In this way, Deng Haonan's nautical chart at this time has a very accurate latitude and longitude coordinates. The latitude and longitude will be a unique reference, which will play an extremely important role in the future for Deng Haonan to complete the final establishment of the latitude and longitude of the global navigation and make a truly accurate map of the world.

The Diaoyu Islands have also become the exact coordinate reference for all voyagers entering the Pacific Ocean.

Damn! Since fate has arranged for Lao Tzu to come here, then he can't come in vain!

Na Haonan secretly thought in his heart that the little devils in the future would occupy the fishing black, not to mention how many nests there were, so at this time Deng Haonan wanted to do something to vent.

At the moment, the sailors were ordered to put down a few small boats, and Deng Haonan took a group of officers and a few craftsmen to land on the Diaoyu Islands.

On the highest mountain of Diaoyu Island, Deng Haonan pinched his waist and instructed his subordinates to mark it. Carrying a thick log from the Black Pearl, nailing a Great Bright Sun and Moon Dragon Flag to it, and then erecting it on the top of the mountain.

It wasn't enough to plant the flag, Di Haonan ordered someone to blow up a boulder and instructed the craftsmen to level it. Then a monument was erected on the hill to write an article.

The seven huge traditional characters of the Diaoyu Islands of the Ming Empire are engraved on the Ming Empire, and the seven November of the fifth year of the Apocalypse of the Ming Empire are engraved below, and Zhu is established by the school.

After the big and small characters are finished, they are painted with red paint, so that they can be seen clearly from afar, and they are particularly conspicuous.

"Headmaster!" Lin Feng asked puzzledly: "Why did you sign Zhu Youxiao?" ”

Na Haonan smiled bitterly in his heart, later generations may not know Lao Tzu's name, and there is no authority, so it is more convincing to write the name of the emperor of the Ming Dynasty.

It's just that Di Haonan is so foolish

Hundreds of years later, after the Chinese Empire unearthed ten weeping stone tablets from Diaoyu Wubu, there was a fierce war between different factions in the archaeological and academic circles.

Because archaeologists use carbon attenuation to identify, it is believed that it was engraved in the fifth year of the Great Tomorrow Apocalypse, many people think that Zhu Youzhen has indeed been to the Diaoyu Islands, while another group of people think that Zhu Youzhen cannot go, and both sides have their own arguments, and finally the mystery of the stele becomes whether Zhu Youzhen has contributed to the sea power of the Ming Dynasty? Is it a cowardly carpenter emperor, or is there something else hidden? It has become a major historical unsolved case.

After Deng Haonan prepared this qiē, he was in a very comfortable mood. But the others were very puzzled, but fortunately, Deng Haonan was not prepared to spend the night on the Diaoyu Islands, which made them breathe a sigh of relief.

After returning to the Black Pearl, Deng Haonan also figured out why the course was more than 30 degrees different, and he almost went in the opposite direction. It turned out that when Deng Haonan taught the students to calculate the course, he overly ignored the role of ocean currents. At this time, at the turn of the season, the ocean currents were very unstable, so the course of the Black Pearl was changed due to the action of the Pacific undercurrent.

When everyone learned the reason, they were overjoyed and mastered another navigation guide.

In the evening, the Black Pearl finally turned eastward for more than an hour and discovered the two large islands described by Deng Haonan.

Ishiheng Island and Iriomote Island are next to each other, and there are five or six other small islands nearby.

Of course, at this time, there were no names for Ishiheng Island and Iriomote Island, which were given to them by small Japan in later generations.

Deng Haonan then named it Twin Islands.

The two islands are relatively large, three times larger than Shannan Island, and the islands are densely forested, with plains and extinct volcanoes forming natural harbors and beaches.

The average depth of water between the two islands is one metre, and a large number of warships can be stationed, but it is necessary to build docks and barrages manually.

"The headmaster is really a god!"

Lin Feng and the others couldn't help but sigh as they spoke about the martial arts hall.

Huang Zupei was also very happy in his heart, the spiritual impact that Nahao brought to him was too powerful, this kind of thing. Obviously, it can't be explained by common sense.

Therefore, Huang Zupei became more and more convinced that Deng Haonan was possessed by the gods.

An indescribable sense of anticipation arises!

Na Haonan said: "To the west of Twin Islands is Dongfan Island, and the clipper boat will arrive in three days!" The island to the north is large and flat, suitable for large-scale garrisons, just enough to build a high wall around it, arrange defensive artillery, and build a fortress! The island to the south is on higher ground, so you can build a fort on top and a dock below to make it a safe haven! ”

Huang Zupei nodded and said: "The geographical location here is important, and no one knows about it, the commander sent troops from here to Dongfan Island, not only is it convenient to attack, but when retreating, because of the retreat into the Pacific Ocean, it is not easy to be tracked!" ”

Deng Haonan continued: "The island to the north looks like a five-pointed star, so I am going to build a Pentagon on it! ”

Pentagon?

Huang Zupei was stunned!

Sweat! Deng Haonan was quick to say such things as the Pentagon.

Immediately explained: "It is to build the city wall into a regular pentagon, so that it looks more imposing!" ”

Huang Zupei was skeptical, he naturally couldn't see any momentum in the Pentagon in Deng Haonan's mouth, but it was just a repair. City walls? Since Deng Haonan doesn't like quadrangular city walls, then it's better to build them into pentagons!

In the evening, after Deng Haonan and others returned to the Xiaonanshan Naval Base by the Black Pearl, they recruited Sigou, Qian Shun, Zhang Chi, and several others to arrange for the construction of a new naval base on Twin Islands. At the same time, the proximity to the east coast of Taiwan allows you to find the necessary supplies directly in Taiwan, so a larger steel plant and arsenal can be built on it.

Although Di Haonan's temporary funds are only more than 80,000 taels of silver, fortunately, there are a lot of materials purchased before the Xiaonanshan Naval Base, which can last for a while. Therefore, Deng Haonan invested the 80,000 taels of silver in the construction of the base of the twin islands.

There are enough people to build the base on the twin islands, and they are all free labor, and the recruits are just going to work on the twin islands. Earth, stone and timber can be obtained locally, and even from the Oriental Island. The fortress artillery Xiaonanshan Arsenal can be supplied, and the mother has to worry. In short, after the calculations of Huang Zupei, Sigou and others, Deng Haonan only needed to pay 10,000 taels of silver to buy some rewards, and improve the lives of the workers and soldiers from time to time.

This surprised Di Haonan!

However, if a base can be built without spending money, Deng Haonan is naturally willing!

The next day, Huang Zupei and 1,000 soldiers went to the Twin Islands to build some guard towers. It is used as a defensive warning. Then, Sigou, Qian Shun, Zhang Chi and others organized logistics personnel and craftsmen to arrive at Twin Islands with tools and living utensils under the escort of the frigate.

Over the course of a day, more than 3,000 people cut down timber first. To build simple housing, it was necessary to give the workers and soldiers a place to eat and sleep.

It wasn't until the third day that the workers began digging foundations, building walls, and building high breakwater dikes.

The officers and men of the Pacific Fleet were not idle, and on the frigates around them, sailors began to measure the water depth and reef conditions near the twin islands, and then set up the main channel, and then nailed high wooden stakes and cables under the other channels to prevent anyone from breaking in by boat. Then the sailors built the naval docks and warehouses.

Today, I would like to thank my friends for their valuable monthly tickets and rewards! ，
