Chapter 114: The Long See

The old fishermen are more superstitious, and the village has passed down from generation to generation, and the fish that are too big in the sea are the messengers of the sea dragon king, and can call the wind and rain. Therefore, in their bones, they are in awe of the behemoth of the sea.

The big fish in front of him was even bigger than the 'sea god' he imagined.

"Tang Shuai, the big fish 'whale' in the emperor's decree has appeared!" Seeing this, the deputy general directly ignored the old fishermen who knelt down and immediately reported to Tang He.

"Prepare to kill!" Tang He was overjoyed when he heard this, and immediately commanded.

"You can't be disrespectful to the god of the sea!" When the old fisherman heard this, he hurried over to try to stop it, preparing to fight to the death, "If you are rude to the sea god, everyone will die at sea." ”

"Come on, drag him down!" Tang He said, "It was ordered to be hunted and killed by the emperor, and the emperor is the true dragon emperor." Even if it is a real sea god, it has to surrender to the feet of the true dragon emperor. ”

Soon, more than a hundred fierce soldiers gathered on the deck, and all of them worked together to pull out the huge 'fishing crossbows' that were set up on the side of the ship! ’。 With a bang, the behemoth and sharp crossbow arrows shot down at the behemoth in the sea.

There was only one crossbow arrow, one zhang long, with huge hooks on both sides.

The tail is connected by an iron cable, and the other end is hung on the noose of the Hongwu treasure ship.

"Poof!" With a bang, a huge crossbow arrow pierced the whale's body in an instant, and blood gushed out, staining the sea red. The whale in the sea was in pain, and dragged the Hongwu treasure boat to shake on the sea.

"Follow it in a boat!" Tang He instructed, "Wait until it is exhausted and you don't have the strength to talk about it." ”

Tang He, who was previously in charge of the water division, and Chen Youliang fought the biggest water battle in history at Poyang Lake. He is very familiar with water warfare, but it is the first time he has caught a big fish in the sea.

Soon, the Hong Wubao boat followed the whale.

Stop-and-go, and from time to time the boat is reversed, which exhausts the whale's strength. At this time, the power of the Hongwu treasure ship was a rotating oar, and thousands of civilians rowed to fight against the behemoth in the sea.

After a long battle, the whale's strength was finally exhausted.

Tang He immediately ordered the sailors with good water ability to go into the water, holding giant spears and constantly attacking the big fish in the water. The crowd is helping dozens of gourds, and even if they don't have enough strength, they won't sink to the bottom of the sea.

A mermaid battle lasted for several days before humanity emerged victorious.

"Drag it up!" Tang He was overjoyed to see this and ordered the crowd to stir the cables. With great effort, the fin whale was finally lifted to the boat, and the crowd measured it with a ruler, which was eight zhang long.

The weight is estimated to be 50,000 catties.

Placed on the treasure boat, it is like a hill, and the Hongwu treasure boat has a draft and is a full meter deep.

"Great!" A smile appeared on Tang He's face, "Your Majesty, the minister has finally fulfilled his mission." ”

"Homecoming!"

……

"Your Majesty, Tang Shuai has returned to the court!" On this day, Zhu Yuanzhang and Queen Ma were eating imperial meals, and then they heard the report of the second tiger coming in.

"Yuwa is back?" Zhu Yuanzhang was overjoyed when he heard this, "Did he catch a big fish?" ”

"Caught." Erhu said excitedly, "That big fish is eight zhang long and two zhang high. Weigh 50,000 catties! Tang Shuai sent people to transport it in ten board cars, and it was almost at the gate of Yingtian City. ”

"There really is such a big fish in the world!" Zhu Yuanzhang was amazed when he heard this, and stood up, "At first, I heard Mr. Qin say that there is such a big fish, but I didn't believe it. I didn't expect to be caught by Tang He. ”

"Mr. Qin is a pedantic, how can his words be false?" Queen Ma said, "Such a big fish, it is simply a small 'Kun', according to Zhuangzi's leisurely record, there is a fish in the North Underworld whose name is Kun, and the size of the Kun is not known for thousands of miles...... Although the whale caught by Tang He is only eight zhang, far smaller than the kun, it is definitely a rare thing in the world. ”

"Now that the 'divine object' has been captured by my Daming fleet, it is an auspicious omen."

"Yes, this is the auspicious omen of Daming!" Zhu Yuanzhang said excitedly, "Zhuangzi was originally an immortal. He said that Zi Fei Yu knew the joy of fish, so it seems that Zhuangzi also likes big fish very much, otherwise he would not know that there is such a thing as Kun. ”

"Such a behemoth, my subordinates have never seen it." Erhu was also very excited, "Because the road is too narrow, Tang Shuai ordered people to cut down all the big trees around and make a wide road." ”

"The road surface was almost crushed by the pallet trucks being transported, and there were thousands of people pushing the carts. The crowd of onlookers was so crowded that they almost broke their heads. There were also some people who did not know where they were, and when they saw the big fish, they immediately knelt down on both sides of the road, burned incense and prayed. ”

"The people have never seen such a large creature, and it is understandable that they burn incense and bow down." Zhu Yuanzhang's turbulent road.

"Because the gate of Ying Tianfu City is too small, the minister estimates that the big fish cannot be transported into the city." Erhu said, "If you want to transport it into the palace, you can't do it." ”

"He can't bring him in, so we'll go to the city gate to pick him up!" Zhu Yuanzhang stood up, extremely excited, "Erhu, go and call all the ministers of civil and military affairs...... And all the imperial chefs, let them move all the cauldrons of the imperial dining room to the city. ”

"Yes!" Two tigers arrived.

"Sister, let's go, let's go out of the city to see Da Ming Xiangrui together!"

……

Outside the city at this time.

On both sides of the road, there was no need for the two tigers to bark, and after hearing the news, the civil and military officials all rushed to the gate of the city. According to them, such a miracle is rare in the ages, and it must be seen.

Minister of Civil and Military Affairs, standing on both sides of the road.

These include Liu Bowen, Gao Qi, Song Lian, Lu Chang, Li Shanchang, Hu Weiyong...... There are also all the generals, Chang Mao, Li Wenzhong, Deng Yu, Feng Sheng, etc.

The people on both sides of the board car were even more crowded, and everyone was pointing and talking there. There were a large number of people kneeling and worshipping, the black pressure was overwhelming, and the smoke of incense was filled.

Such a huge creature has never been seen in eternity!

All the ministers of civil and military affairs, including the common people, couldn't help but sigh in their hearts.

What caught the eyes of the crowd was ten board cars at the intersection of the road, ten board cars were connected together, and a behemoth was parked on it. The behemoth had fins and tails, and it was clearly a fish.

Its shape is very similar to the kun described in Zhuangzi's "Wandering Away".

"What a big fish!" Liu Bowen sighed, "I have read the books of sages for decades, and it is the first time I have seen such a big fish. ”

"yes." Gao Qi said, "As the saying goes, if you don't go out, you can know the world, it seems that this sentence is wrong." We are not only Xiucai, we have read more books than Xiucai, and we don't know such a big fish. ”
