Chapter 38: Departure

The next day, they arrived at the dock and dock early in the morning, where there were many sails, oars, and nails that had been brought from the shed.

Arya also found bundles of rope in a half-collapsed house, another bonus.

But when Koth and the others arrived, an even greater harvest came.

Yolun arranged for the young and strong adults to go outside the town to cut down trees, and Coos and the others were in charge of the old forest at the end of the town.

When they walked into the old forest with their axes, they found that there was an intact forester's hut with neat piles of firewood waiting to be chopped outside.

It was indeed a surprise.

The fire did not reach the fields and woods outside the town, and the Amorites did not clean the fields.

In addition, there was a small lake next to the hut, and on top of it stood a house made entirely of ten-foot poles.

God really helps me now.

Yoren hurriedly led the adults to the forester's hut and brought the sawn wood over.

Lin Yi took Arya and the orphans in the convoy to set up a raft together.

Although it was his first time making a raft, he was more reliable than the rest of the team.

After all, compared to those who have never been out of King's Landing City in their lives, Lin Yi has not only seen the raft on TV and computers, but has even sat on it more than once.

Time is limited, the wood has not been polished, and the raft made will naturally not look very good.

But it's a one-off thing after all, and no one cares about the appearance or something.

After bringing back all the wood, Yulun and his men demolished the house, which was made entirely of ten-foot long poles.

Some of these long poles can be used as a boat, and the other part can be used for boating.

After all, Lin Yi had no experience in building rafts, and he didn't know what knot was best to use.

You Lun didn't know, so Lin Yi had to explore it by himself.

As for how to grope for it, it's even simpler, just cross and wrap it around one by one, and the tighter the better.

Lin Yi also asked them to dismantle the wagons thrown by the team, and connect a wooden board every two or three logs, which greatly increased the buoyancy of the raft.

The shape looks something like this... ——。。。 ——。。。 ——。。。

In the afternoon, two rafts, about three meters wide and five or six meters long, were made.

Because no one wanted to throw away their armor, Lin Yi tried to make it as big as possible when making it, for fear that the buoyancy would not be enough.

With sails and oars, no matter how big it is, it can't be maneuvered.

After it was done, everyone couldn't wait to go to the dock to try it.

The results were also very gratifying, and the two rafts managed to float on the water.

But just an empty raft doesn't mean anything, and a raft that can't be used is not a good raft.

Yuren began to try to board the raft with a few people who knew how to water.

One person, two people, three people......

By the time the fourth man boarded it, the raft could still float, but it had sunk beneath the surface.

But the result was already a pleasant surprise.

The next step was to make more rafts and set sails for them.

……

After another two days, five huge rafts floated on the town's docks, with a battered rowboat at the forefront.

Yuren: They still repaired the rowing boat.

After all, this rowboat was obviously safer than their homemade raft, and most of the supplies that could not get wet were placed on this rowboat, and Yuren was in charge of it.

In addition to armor and weapons, food was stored on five large rafts, and even the rope and nails left over from the raft were brought on the raft.

Thirty men were to be divided into two teams.

Yulun picked out the thinner adults to take the boat and the children along the waterway, while heavyweights like Kejack had to ride with Lin Yi.

And, of course, there are Repai and Gendry, who is tall and strong, and because he is a blacksmith's apprentice and Robert's illegitimate child, he is not deficient in nutrition, so he weighs much heavier than most of the adults in the team.

As for the hot pie, it's simply because it's too fat.

However, for the matter of taking the land route, the hot school seems to be very happy.

With armor, a long sword, and a tall horse, he felt like he had become a knight.

Arya and Gendry explained this several times, but he still believed that a man wearing armor and riding a horse was a knight, and that a fight between knights was a war.

This left Arya speechless.

At the beginning, Arya also very much wanted to go by land with Lin Yi, but the horses in the team were limited after all, even if the six war horses with the golden robe were confiscated, plus the horses vacated after throwing away the carriage, the total was only eleven.

Arya and Romy were assigned to a raft on their own, with Arya in charge of the sails and the other children paddling.

Because of Arya's use of force these days, none of the children have a problem with this, and they are very interested in the fact that they can paddle and play in the water.

Seeing this, Yu Lun couldn't help but sigh, and only when this is the case, these children who are forced to be precocious can look like children.

The other adults were divided equally among the other rafts according to their approximate weight, and Koth, who had always behaved well, rode in the same rowing boat with Yoron, after all, he was still a little unskilled alone.

When the team really went into the water, everyone's expressions were still a little nervous.

After all, if it fails, all the hard work and efforts of the past three days will be in vain, and even the "Child", which is the most unlikely to sink, will be extremely cautious.

Well, this is Yuren's nickname, and Arya herself doesn't recognize it, she prefers to call it "Black Swan".

Under the watchful eyes of everyone on the dock on the shore, all the waterway teams boarded the boat, and the five rafts and rowboats all successfully floated to sleep.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, and Yu Lun sat on the rowboat, raised his arm, and gave a thumbs up to Lin Yi on the shore.

It happened to be a tailwind at this hour, so the sails on the raft were spread out in a good way.

The oarsman also made two tentative strokes on the water, and then began to become more and more proficient.

The children were the happiest, they enjoyed the activity and competed for the one to be the paddler.

Yoren scolded them across the water, warning them that it would be a waste of effort and that they should be careful not to fall behind.

It's a pity that Yulun, who is separated by three or four meters of water, does not have the deterrent power he used to have, and he has to rely on Arya himself to deter them before he is willing to obey.

Looking at the convoy that was moving away on the water, Lin Yi waved his hand, turned around, and walked towards the horses tied to the path on the shore.

Everyone also followed behind Lin Yi, and everyone didn't speak.

Although they still don't know Lin Yi's name, and they haven't seen Lin Yi's true face, with the hand he showed in front of the hotel, no one in the whole team dared to disobey Lin Yi's words.

In addition, Yu Lun also showed that he was very convinced of Lin Yi, and no one would question him at this time.

However, even if the team is really good, there are still some problems that must be solved.

Walking to the side of the path, Lin Yi motioned for everyone to lead the horses, and he walked to the only remaining carriage in the convoy -

That prisoner car!
