Xu Jiu returned home and couldn't calm down for a long time. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

All his claims were dismissed.

But he had to go on the road.

In the summer and May of the seventh year of Yuande, Liu Che officially issued an edict to worship Xu Jiu, the Marquis of Song Dynasty, as the governor of Andong Prefecture, and the fake Jieyue and the governor of Anton.

Wang Wenshu, the commander of the embroidered guards, was the commander of the embroidered guards of the Andong Metropolitan Protectorate, and was fully responsible for the supervision of Anton.

Worship Yuyang County Commander Yan Guo Lieutenant Li Guangwei Guangwuhou, 2,500 households, worship as the general of Huhao.

Shang Shu Zuo servant Zheng was appointed as the ambassador of the Andong Metropolitan Protectorate at that time, and he had full authority to handle the affairs of the reclamation regiment.

Feng Andong Protector Bo Shi is the new wait, 5,000 households in the food town, worship as Jing Zhaoyin, Chang'an Protector Envoy, rank ratio of 2,000 stones.

At the same time, Xu Ji, the governor of Incheon Port, was appointed as the governor of Wonhae, and the governor of the Korean Strait, the East China Sea, the Yellow Sea, and the Bohai Sea, controlled all the ships of the Korean Peninsula, and for the first time set up a yamen called 'customs' in Incheon Port, which was controlled by the lord Commander Yamen, and all merchant ships and civilian ships entering and leaving Incheon Port had to report and pay taxes to the 'customs', otherwise they could be prohibited from entering the port or even detaining ships.

Xu Jiu, the Marquis of Song, was edicted and embarked on the road to Anton together with Wang Wenshu, the new commander of the Andong Metropolitan Protectorate and the Embroidered Guard.

They first spent a month from Guanzhong through Luoyang and Xingyang, and then down the river from the Huai River to the Jiaodong Port of Qi.

Then take the boat from Jiaodong Port to Andong.

Along the way, the wind and waves were bumpy, and Xu Jiu and Wang Wenshu were all made to vomit and diarrhea, and they almost suspected that they would die on the boat.

But fortunately, after half a month, the two got used to such a journey.

And the land of the Andong Protectorate is gradually in sight.

…………………………………………

At the same time, another building ship, carrying dozens of convicts, rangers and criminals, was bumpy in the Yuan Sea in the summer.

Fang Sheng lay in the cabin, looking at the ship in the waves, like a wanderer, sighed and said: "I never know, the danger of the sea is so much!" ”

His family members sat around him nervously.

Two months ago, the Fang family was still the envy of the official family in Chang'an City, and since thirty years ago, the Fang family has been rich and noble.

But who would have thought that the Chang'an transformation case would make the Fang family fall from heaven to hell in an instant.

But the Fang family didn't dare to complain, let alone complain.

Because, they know, in fact, their fate has already been calculated.

At least, the family is still together.

At the very least, they were allowed to leave with their families of 200,000 dollars.

At least, although it is called exile, in fact, along the way, it is quite taken care of.

They were even allowed to roam freely in the ship, which was much luckier than the other people who were escorted together.

Of course, Fang Sheng now understood why this was.

The Northwest Governor of the Anton Protectorate, Long Hou Chen needed his shipbuilding talents, so he specially asked the Son of Heaven for him.

"Mr. Fang, there are still half a day to arrive at Chengen Island! Would you like to come out and see the scenery? You might even see a whaling scene! At this moment, a deep male voice came from outside the cabin.

When Fang Sheng heard this, he hurriedly stepped forward, opened the cabin, and bowed to the man: "The captain is invited, dare to obey his orders?" ”

Along the way, thanks to the care of this captain named Zhang Rong, otherwise he and his family would have suffered!

Following Zhang Rong to the deck, Fang Sheng was still a little uncomfortable with the sea conditions.

After all, compared to the largest ship ever built by mankind, the Fu Ship, the waves of the sea are still an irresistible force!

Since the Han dynasty began to mass-produce Fuchuan and its various modifications in the fourth year of Yuande, more than ten Fuchuan have sunk into the sea.

Most of them are due to rough seas and the capsizing of ships.

As an official who had been involved in the design of the ship, Fang Sheng knew that this was because the Fuchuan had some fatal flaws in its design.

After all, the Han dynasty had never built and designed ships for ocean navigation before.

Therefore, only the stability is considered, but the complexity of the sea situation is not taken into account, especially the lack of design that is resistant to wind and waves and turbulence.

Therefore, the follow-up fortune ships and whaling ships have undergone targeted adjustments.

For example, most ships today are equipped with fin-like devices and water tanks designed to reduce swaying to balance the ship and adapt to wind and waves.

After such improvements, the safety of the ship has been greatly enhanced, and now it is an old ship such as the building ship, after the installation of this device, the ship's turbulence in the waves has been greatly reduced, and the wind and wave resistance has been greatly improved.

And the design of this balanced water tank with anti-shake, Fang Sheng has also contributed some strength.

Taking a deep breath, Fang Sheng looked at the endless sea and said with emotion: "The sea territory is vast...... I don't know how wide this sea is......"

When Zhang Rong heard this, he also sighed with emotion, and said: "Last year, Lieutenant Du once ordered a fleet to sail a thousand miles west, and after the fleet came back, it reported: The sea is boundless, and there is no land ...... in sight."

"Why don't you go further?" Fang Sheng wondered.

"Because no matter how far you go, you will get lost...... Zhang Rong said: "The sea is boundless, there is no reference, if the voyage is too far, the ship is easy to lose its direction and lose its bearing...... There was once a whaling ship, sailing in the sea for several days, deviated from the course, but could not find a way back, can only go with the flow in the vast sea, fortunately it was tired, and finally got rescued by a group of fine willow whales, followed the fine willow whales, and finally returned to the right course before the food and water were exhausted......"

"Willow Beast?" Hearing this, Fang Sheng asked strangely, "What kind of beast is that?" ”

"A kind of black and white, quite spiritual cetacean, because it is quite similar to the iron-eating beast on the battle flag of the fine willow camp, so it is called the 'fine willow beast'......" Zhang Rong said: "Now that he has arrived in Yuanhai, Mr. should be able to see these magical cetaceans soon...... However, as a reminder, above the sea, you must not hurt any willow beasts, otherwise, I am afraid that there will be a curse! ”

"Damnation?" Fang Sheng didn't quite understand: "Isn't this thin willow beast a cetacean?" The Son of Heaven once issued an edict to commend the people of the world to go deep and catch more, and provide food for the people of my Xia Shi, why can't the single willow beast be caught? Just because it looks like the iron-eating beast on the battle banner of the Willow Battalion? ”

Zhang Rong was extremely cautious, as if he was in awe of something, and hurriedly said: "Mr. only knows one thing, but he doesn't know the other......"

"Anyone who sails on this sea knows that if you are unfortunate enough to fall into the water and there are fine willow beasts around, there is a high probability that you can survive......

"During the battle of Yan Ji, a building ship full of ordnance sank about 100 miles off the coast of Incheon, and more than 200 soldiers and civilians on the whole ship fell into the water, which was sure to die, but fortunately there were more than ten fine willow beasts nearby, with the help of fine willow beasts, and finally 100 lives were saved!"

"Say it, Mr. may not believe it, this fine willow beast, is the tiger and leopard in the sea, they can prey on all the creatures on the sea and the shore, but they never offend any Han people, there was a Han family man playing in the water by Cheng'en Island, a fine willow beast thought it was the prey, so rushed forward, but found that it was my Han people, so he screamed and turned back to the sea......"

"There are tigers and leopards on the land, which can eat people, but the fine willow beasts in this sea are dozens of times larger than tigers and leopards, and more ferocious than tigers and leopards, but they have never had any ill will towards the people of my Zhuxia, but have rescued and helped my Zhuxia soldiers and civilians who fell into the water many times......"

"Isn't this a godsend? God's destiny? ”

Speaking of this, Zhang Rong lowered his voice and quietly told Fang Sheng: "Sir, you can know that the Son of Heaven once had a secret edict to Chen Duwei, and in the secret edict, there was once Xiaoyu Duwei: The so-called fine willow beast in the sea, covering killer whales, is the reincarnation of the heroic spirit of my Xia martyrs......"

When Fang Sheng heard this, he laughed, feeling that this was probably a lie.

The heroic martyr was reincarnated as a cetacean in the sea, and people have to believe it!

Zhang Rong looked at Fang Sheng and didn't believe it, and hurriedly said, "I didn't believe it much at first, but after coming and going in the sea for a long time, I have to believe it!" ”

"How?"

"Sir, do you know that this willow beast is extremely intelligent and affectionate? The willow beast served its mother all its life, obeyed its mother's orders all its life, and was not the reincarnation of a loyal and filial son. In addition, the brothers and sisters of the fine willow beast tribe are brothers, friends, and brothers, even if the fine willow beast is occasionally disabled or injured, and its people will also prey on fish and cetaceans to feed it for life......"

"I have seen a wounded willow beast with my own eyes, and I have cared for and nurtured it for its people......"

Fang Sheng was dumbfounded when he heard this.

Zhang Rong continued: "Say it, you may not believe it...... Now, under the command of the Northwest Governor Long Wait, there are two groups of fine willow beasts, which are specially designed to guide the direction of the whaling fleet of Long Waiting, and guide the whaling, and their intelligence is like that of human beings, and there are joys, sorrows, and sorrows......"

"Now, if a person who goes out to sea encounters a willow beast, he will be rewarded with fish and shrimp......"

As he spoke, bursts of water suddenly erupted from the sea in the distance, and several black and white, extremely cute giant beasts surfaced on the sea.

They anthropomorphically raise their heads, peek out of the water, and then see the boat.

Then, the beast lifted its entire body out of the water, and the other members immediately followed suit, leaping high and uttering a series of crisp cries from their mouths, as if a human had met his old friend and wanted to say hello.

When Zhang Rong saw it, a smile appeared on his face, and he said, "Sir, this is the fine willow beast!" ”

At the same time, the sailors on the building ship also let out bursts of cheers.

Fang Sheng even saw that an officer took out a few huge sea fish from the cabin, these sea fish were caught by the ship on the road, and they were more than a foot long, and the officer quickly cut these sea fish with a knife, and then strung them with a rope.

"Why is that?" Fang Sheng asked.

"This is a reward for the Willow Beast......," Zhang Rong explained, "People who go to sea believe in ghosts and gods the most, and they are also the most eager to be blessed by the ancestors and gods, and if they encounter the Willow Beast on the road, this is the best omen!" Because there are willow beasts, there will be no sharks! And the willow beast can also guide people to hunt fish, and when it is critical, it can save lives! ”

"Now, all the ships under General Lou Chuan and those who go to sea from all sides think that the fine willow beast is indeed the reincarnation of heroic martyrs!"

"Sacrificing fish is both a reward and a sacrifice......"
