Chapter 222: The Shark of the East China Sea

At dusk, the sunset burns the clouds, and at the same time reflects the red sea, the water waves are magnificent and colorful, and hundreds of fishing boats are moored in the port of Langya County, you can imagine how busy this place usually is. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

Qin Ge stood on the county city wall and looked down, when the sea breeze blew, it was heavy and wet, but it didn't make people feel disgusting, but it gave people the freshness of the sea. In the market of Langya County, all kinds of fresh seafood emerge in an endless stream, and the fish and shrimp that cannot be eaten in the mainland are very cheap here.

Relying on the mountains to eat the mountains, relying on the sea to eat the sea, this is the truth.

During the Qin Dynasty and even the Warring States Period, the coastal city of Langya County maintained considerable vitality!

According to historical records, Qin Shi Huang traveled here three times, and stayed in Langyatai three times, the longest of which was as long as three months, and Xu Fu also set off from Langya County to go overseas to find immortal elixir.

What a great place!

What makes Qin Ge salivate is not only the cheap and abundant, pure natural and pollution-free seafood, but also the value of the port itself in Langya County, which is more than 30 meters deep, if it is placed on the earth, it is a well-deserved deep-water port.

The deep-water port can park large ships, and has the potential to become a shipping hub, Langya County and even the Jiaodong Peninsula, the fishing and hunting culture is very developed, so the number of ships and shipbuilding capacity is very good, if Qin Ge can apply the steam engine technology to wear, so as to create a large steam ship.

The magnificent age of sail seems to be just around the corner!

Qin Ge squinted his eyes and looked at the sea level, this world is too big, the ocean is even bigger, no one knows how many treasures are hidden in the sea, and no one knows how many unknowns are bred in the ocean, but it is precisely because of this that it is even more desirable!

Other Qin Ge didn't know.

But one thing is for sure.

Starting from the Jiaodong Peninsula and crossing the strait to the east, you can reach the Korean Peninsula, which was the country that divided the south and north of the city in later generations.

Now I don't know anything about what the situation is in the country of sticks!

Qin Ge knew that starting from the Stick Country again, he only needed to cross a little more strait to reach the island of Japan, both of which were very close to here.

Even ordinary sailboats can reach it.

What's more, it's the steamship that Qin Ge is going to build?

In this way, it seems that the immigration of the island country is just around the corner, but the actual operation is not so easy, Qin Ge's means of transportation are completely ahead of the times, after all, even if they are the maritime hegemons of the fourteenth and fifteenth century, Portugal and Spain do not have steam-powered ships.

But in this world, transportation is only one of the conditions for navigation.

A good ship that's fast and big enough is not enough!

This world is not the world of the earth, and this ocean is by no means comparable to the ocean of the earth, if you have to make a comparison, it may be closer to the worldview of the American blockbuster "Pirates of the Caribbean" or even the anime "One Piece"!

There are sea monsters and dragons, there are countless fairy islands and demon domains, and there is a huge system of sea tribes, in short, it is full of incredible and even magical colors!

For example, the Penglai Immortal Island that suddenly appeared.

For example, they often harass the Qi country, and now they have become a big trouble in Langya County!

Zhao Kuangyin and Han Xin walked up to Qin Ge, "Don't look at the calm now, those guys like to be active in the middle of the night, Langya County is very unsafe now, we suggest that Brother Qin still don't stay for a long time." ”

There are a group of sea tribes living in the East China Sea.

The sea race and the land race are completely different systems.

The Huaxia people know very little about the sea race, only in the "Classic of Mountains and Seas" and some legends, find some relevant records about the sea tribe, but there are not many people who have really dealt with the sea tribe in the land of China, and the Qi country is undoubtedly the most experienced among them.

Langya County is a coastal city in Qi State.

It is said that every five or eight years, they are raided by pirates.

Qin Ge came to Qi this time to help Zhao Kuangyin, how could he be easily scared away? What's more, Qin Ge had never seen the legendary Sea Clan, so he was also full of curiosity about this mysterious race!

He is very satisfied with the city of Langya County, and it is very likely that it will be the first seaport city in Daqin in the future, and its status is similar to that of Tianjin and Shanghai in the later generations, so don't look at it as if it is not very rich now, it will definitely change a lot in a few years.

But I want to make good use of the ocean.

It is inevitable to deal with the Sea Clan.

If you can't pass the sea clan, let alone build a ship and sail away, even fishermen will have a problem fishing!

"Brother Zhao is too unseemly to say this, if it were my Qin who was in trouble and Brother Zhao was passing by, would you sit idly by and turn a blind eye?

Zhao Kuangyin had nothing to say.

Han Xin laughed happily: "I knew that Brother Qin must be a righteous person!"

Qin Ge set his eyes on Han Xin, his face full of differences or depression: "Brother Han Xin, hasn't there been any change in the past few months?"

Han Xin is almost exactly the same as when he was in the Hongmen barracks.

This made Qin Ge feel a little puzzled, if the soldier immortal Han Xin had developed according to the regular development of history, he had already been discovered by Liu Bang in the Han army, and was directly reused by Liu Bang, from a nobody, to the highest general.

This will undoubtedly cause dissatisfaction among the three armed forces!

Liu Bang was not without generals at that time, from Cao Shen, Zhou Bo, Xiahou Baby, Guan Ying and so on.

The top famous generals of the Han army may not be found, and it is not difficult to list three or five of the current good generals, these people are all old revolutionaries who fought the world with Liu Bang, how can they tolerate a new young man who directly parachutes into the position of a general to become the supreme military commander?

This can only show that Liu Bang is fully confident in Han Xin!

At this time, Han Xin may have released his potential and shown the peerless demeanor of a peerless soldier!

Because of Qin Ge's influence on the relationship, the historical trajectory has changed, and Han Xin has no chance to join the Han camp, let alone meet Liu Bang, is it because of this reason that the awakening has also been postponed? Han Xin still looks like a dick!

............

In the middle of the night, the soldiers were mobilized.

Langya County had about 8,000 soldiers, plus the young and strong who were temporarily signs, and finally formed a force of about 15,000 people, led by Zhao Kuangyin himself to start defensive measures.

Qin Ge watched the entire deployment process, judging from the tacit understanding between these soldiers and the militia, it was obvious that Langya County was threatened by aliens for not a day or two, so everyone from the officers to the militia was already familiar with the countermeasures.

They sent the prepared fire oil to the city tower in advance, barrel by barrel, even the arrows were coated with fuel, and braziers were set up at every battlement of the city wall for the soldiers to light the rockets when shooting arrows.

Around the time of the third watch.

Qin Ge felt the sound of the city wall alarm bell.

Immediately the people became alert, and something was approaching.

When Qin Ge stood on the city tower and looked at the past, from the dark sea level, a group of figures swam out silently, densely packed, numerous, and could not be counted specifically for a while, when they were about to go ashore, Zhao Kuangyin picked up a bow and lit a rocket, shooting it from a distance of three or four hundred meters.

A rocket is like a meteor in the night.

Those prepared flammables were ignited.

When the firelight appeared, Qin Ge saw the appearance of these creatures clearly, he couldn't help but widen his eyes, these creatures are very similar to the legendary mermaids, but the difference with the mermaids is that the mermaids in Western myths and legends are generally females, extremely beautiful, and are good at confusing sailors with their singing voices, causing them to run aground and die.

Now that the sea tribe appears in front of me, there is a little similarity with the mermaid, that is, they are all half-human and half-fish, the upper body is a human and the lower body is a fish, but the lower body of this race is not the kind of fish tail of the mermaid, but more like the Naga clan in the World of Warcraft, slender and flexible, like a snake tail.

It is because of this tail that these sea tribes can swim like snakes and are not slow.

The upper body of these sea tribes resembles that of humans, but there are obvious differences, such as the fact that they do not wear clothes, but their bodies are covered with thin black scales, and there are gills behind the ears for fish breathing, and as for weapons, they are mainly harpoons.

Han Xin said a little nervously: "It has appeared, this is the black-scaled shark people living in the East China Sea!"

As soon as Qin Ge heard that it was a merman, he immediately realized that the merman was a relatively common sea clan, and there were many ancient books that recorded it, and he could find eight out of ten places casually.

It is said that the merman people are good at weaving, and can weave the dragon yarn that is hard to find, and there is a legend that the tears of the merman people can be condensed into beads, which has high medicinal value and collection value. In the end, the oil on the mermaid is very valuable, but the ignition point is very low, and it is said that as long as a drop can burn for several days without extinguishing.

When Qin Ge went to the Mausoleum of Qin Shi Huang, the candles burned in it were all candles made of mermaid oil, which could be used for hundreds or even thousands of years, so they were called immortal candles.

The mermaid is quite widely distributed.

Its ethnic groups are also divided into several groups.

Now I am encountering the black-scaled shark of the merman clan, which is characterized by being more ferocious and strong, so it has a high degree of aggression.

Using fire is the best way to deal with the merman.

The wall of fire composed of flammable materials and fire oil can effectively block the merman, and the rocket that ignites the fire can pose a great threat to the merman, after all, their body is too easy to burn, and it is precisely because of this that although the coast of China is often attacked by merman bandits, these sea tribes have never been able to form a climate.

That's right.

But there are too many mermaids this time!

When Qin Ge looked at the sea, countless black shadows were approaching, and the scale of this vast scale reached one or two thousand, among which there were not only those holding harpoons, but also some wearing bows and arrows, it seemed that they were determined to take Langya County.

When Qin Ge was chilled, the voice of the guardian spirit sounded in his ears.

"C-level side quest activated: Defend Langya County!"

"Mission Success Reward: 100 Luck!"

"Mission Failure Penalty: 200 Luck!"

Judging from the mission rating, this mission should not be difficult, but it is also challenging, as long as the merman invades Langya County and kills the people, the mission will be considered a failure.

Qin Ge's current luck storage is completely enough to pay the penalty for failure, so why should he be afraid? He directly accepted the task and was ready for battle, he wanted to see what different abilities these mermen had!
