I am the king of the dead

Chapter 961 Bringing a Little Shock to the Ancient Land

Zhu Qiyu read King Xiang's memorial and found it very interesting. He scolded some people, but he didn't seem to scold.

"The model of the left hand, the de-embedded model has a certain meaning, especially in a small area such as an individual, a family, or even a small workshop, it is applicable, but if you look at the whole Ming Dynasty, According to the scriptures, there are some papers." Zhu Qiyu Zhu criticized Zhu Zhanqian's memorial.

The plan for a year lies in spring. When the spring breeze blows the land of Daming, the Daming Ocean Fleet, commanded by Fandu of the Daming Navy and commanded by Daming Jinyiwei, Tang Xing, is sailing southwest under the leadership of the flagship.

"The wind is blowing! The wind is blowing!" Sailor Kuai Lin was lying on the mast of the flagship. He was bored, and suddenly his eyes lit up, because the anemometer in his hand spun.

Holding an anemometer in his hand, he jumped up suddenly, slid down from the mast like the wind, and came to Tang Xing in a flash, handed the anemometer in his hand to Tang Xing, and shouted loudly: " Commander Tang, the wind is blowing!"

"Okay! Beat the drum and blow the trumpet to notify all the ships that the wind is blowing!" Tang Xing shouted loudly, spitting out the fish bone he had bitten in his mouth.

The drums are beating, the horns are urging, and the flags are flying.The battleships and three-masted ships guarding the left and right seemed to wake up suddenly. After seeing the semaphore clearly, the twelve ships burst into cheers and beat the drums together. Up, far, far away.

After sailing in the equatorial windless belt for nearly two months, the good boys of Daming are almost tormented by boredom and become suspicious.

Da Mingerlang is not afraid of violent storms, native intrusions, sea beast attacks, but boredom. The two-month voyage in the equatorial windless belt was very boring. When they woke up every morning, they even doubted that they had never passed this day. , because the sea and the sky are still the same color, and even a cloud can't be seen.

Boredom slowly turned into numbness, numbness began to be suspicious, are we really leaving?Are we caught in a sea barrier?There is even an odd wonder: are we dead?

Before Tang Xing left Xianwan, he threw a boundary marker into the sea. Throwing this thing under the water has the same meaning as a dog peeing on the edge of his own territory. To be more civilized, this is all legal principles.

In terms of physical characteristics, there are still many similarities between the Roman nobles and the Ming people in the traditional sense, otherwise the Han Shu would not have recorded such words as Roman humans and Han people.

The Daming navy has no shortage of food. At worst, they will catch some seafood to make some sashimi, and there is no shortage of fresh water. Some of the extravagant ones can even drink hot water. After all, His Majesty the Emperor prepared more than 50 barrels of light water for each ship of the Daming Ocean Fleet. Oil is for the ocean-going fleet to boil water at sea, and each ship also prepares a full [-] barrels of shochu, high alcohol.

When the twelve boats rowed a beautiful arc and pointed to the west, the blue sea water became dark, and the sea water on the opposite side was like a giant beast that was originally docile and silent, and suddenly stood up angrily and trembled. On the shoulders, there were waves of swells, constantly rolling out white waves, and some melon-headed whales were thrown away by the waves.

Tang Xing looked at the row of captives. They were not captives, they were obviously mobile labor.

Those who wrote story books and storytellers must tell Li Binyan one after another reasonable and reasonable legends.

During the two-month voyage in the equatorial windless belt, each Sergeant of the Ming Army only had two liters of water per day, and there was only two jugs of spirits in it.

The big ship put down the barge, and the barge began to explore the waters, and then pulled the big ship and began to anchor slowly into the bay, and then the single-masted boats began to wait for the shore one after another, and the ashigaru of the Japanese country began to take care of the trees on the seashore, and set up camp. Start disembarking.

"That's Big Wave Mountain, right?" Tang Xing asked excitedly, pointing to the faintly visible archipelago in the waves.

The Japanese Ashigaru is also an auxiliary army who can understand Chinese and even communicate. The main reason is that when they conflict with the aborigines, the ashigaru can immediately stop the aboriginals to buy time for Ming. On board, one and a half liters of water mixed with spirits can be drunk every day!

Tang Xing stopped writing here and stood up abruptly. He heard the sound of an arrow flying into the sky, and a contact battle broke out unexpectedly.

Even the ocean-going fleet, even with only thirteen ships, still retains a complete set of official schools, flag troops, fire chiefs, helmsmen, anchormen, generals, officials, bookmakers, doctors, anchors, and shipwrecks. Waiting for the establishment of the craftsman army, there is also the Daming Navy, which has an absolute numerical advantage.

The local aborigines saw that there were too many ships and planned to harass them, and then the aborigines saw what it means to be a heavenly soldier and general.

"Old Li, Lao Li, when people talk about you, they will say that you are a big corrupt official. No matter what the official history says, you have scattered so many treasures in Southeast Asia, the West Ocean, and the Atlantic Ocean. You can't argue with them!" Xing clapped his hands and stood up. He just hid "Songjiang Governor Li Binyan's Treasure" on the island and drew a treasure map.

Tang Xing turned on some lime blowtorches, and wrote with a pen: "Navy sailors have long-distance fatigue and lack of food and drink, and it is difficult to work hard. Besides, the sea water is salty and salty, so you can't enter it. They all draw fresh water from nearby Chuanze and Binhai Harbor. Those who carry the boats and store the grain and boats in the storehouses are used for spare time, and even urgent tasks should not be suspended for a while, and are the first priority."

Tang Xing is a typical Daming person who has the distinction between Chinese and barbarians. In Daming's values, even the Japanese are just the ranks of Japanese pirates and barbarians, not human beings. These small aborigines are even less human. There is only one purpose for these dozens of eunuchs. On the road afterwards, the eunuchs will try first to see if they can eat the ones that fly in the sky, those that swim in the sea, those that climb on the ground, or those that grow on trees.

Beyond Xianwan is the Atlantic Ocean. Compared with the Western Ocean (Indian Ocean) defined by Ming Dynasty, the Atlantic Ocean has more wind and waves.

Zhu Qiyu thought that if he couldn't help drinking, the Ming army would drink it openly, but in fact he was slightly wrong, the Ming army had never failed His Majesty's expectations.

"We'll be in Manbasa in three days. The land of the Kunlun slaves is full of aboriginals. There are also merchants from the Ming Dynasty who bought ivory and other things to return to the Ming Dynasty." Kuai Lin opened the needle road map, looked at the anemometer, and calculated again. Said for a while.

There are more than 2000 such armors in the entire fleet.

It's just that the line of gun arrays of the Daming Navy still brought a great shock to this ancient land.

Tang Xing was quite disappointed, he was already ready to get a single-masted boat, and went to see the Big Wave Mountain, but the emperor had an order, so he could only shake his head and say, "That's fine."

Tang Xing went all the way north along the coastline, and after walking for more than a month, Tang Xing caught a Taixi man whose skin color was completely different from that of the natives.

When they return to Daming, these treasure maps that are difficult to distinguish between true and false will be quietly circulated.

Kuai Lin also turned pale and opened the needle map to identify it and said: "That is the remaining vein of the Dalangshan Islands, facing the Cape of Dalangshan (Cape of Good Hope), Commander Tang, Your Majesty said that you are Commander Fandu, the fleet Commander-in-Chief, you can't take risks."

When I got there, the compass pointed to the south and the north, hence the name. It was the farthest position recorded in Zheng He's chart, which is the horizon that Li Binyan said.

Tang Xing's freedom has never been a freedom without boundaries. All his freedom is based on safeguarding the interests of Ming Dynasty.

Kuai Lin looked at Tang Xing's displeasure, and persuaded in a low voice: "After passing the Luojing Zhengfeng Peak, there will be no needle map to guide the way. On the shoulder, I ask Commander Tang to think twice."

Tang Xing always thought that he was a born adventurer, a born sailor, and he never got seasick when he got on a boat, but Tang Xing got seasick for the first time when he saw Luo Jingzheng Peak.

Tang Xingdu ate at the same stove with the soldiers of the Ming Dynasty, and these warriors were unwilling to share the same stove with the ashigaru.

The ocean voyage is not only a test of physical strength and willpower, but also a test of organization. Infighting is something Tang Xing will never allow to happen.

Seeing so many shining steel knives, the Taixi man shivered and said, "Your Excellency, I am ashamed that I am not an aristocrat and have not received formal Latin education. Please forgive me for my poverty and offense."

They are an ocean-going expedition fleet, and there is still enough water and food on board. There is no need to continue exploring these explored areas. They set sail and headed straight to the westernmost point of Zheng He's voyages to the West—Luo Jingfeng.

Afterwards, these Japanese ashigaru were assigned to the control of the Great Ming Shubian General, and this Japanese ashigaru never died of starvation and thirst anymore. When the Japanese ashigaru saw Tang Xing, it was like seeing Amaterasu.

Along the way, whenever they approach the shore, there will always be some unsightly tribes coming to harass them. At the beginning, Tang Xing was interested in capturing a few eunuchs, but later he became less interested. Without him, there were too many prisoners. , can't support it, can't it?

This full body armor is not good looking at first glance, no matter how well maintained it is, there are still traces of battle on the armor, in other words, this full body armor has withstood the baptism of war.

When the wind blew up, the thirteen large ships of the Daming Navy seemed to come back to life, and immediately became lively.

The spears they threw fell on the bright light armor, and they could make a hole, but these heavenly soldiers and generals, with their backhands, there was a thunderclap, and then the whistling spears opened the brains of the natives around them, and their hearts were full of joy. .

He waved his hand and said, "All the males are castrated, and the females are put on the boat and raised in the bottom barn."

The battle didn't last long. The next morning the sun shone on the golden beach, and the Ming army even cleaned up the battlefield. An indigenous tribe ten miles away was captured by all members of the Ming army.

Tang Xing stayed in Xianwan for five full days, and the violent wind and waves finally subsided a little bit.

Moreover, Daming also has the fifth prince Zhu Jianyang, who was born with the mission of returning with lightning.

Twelve days later, the Ming Ocean Fleet gradually approached the Luojing Peak at the southernmost tip of Africa.

The crest like a knife is like a giant beast arching its back covered with thorns.

"Your Majesty, did you expect the enemy to be lenient? Even this way, I've been in the windless belt, so I can't use it up?" Tang Xing stood at the bow of the boat, and the sea breeze blew his clothes, making a rattling noise. Each ship in the ocean-going fleet has fifty barrels of spirits. These fifty barrels of spirits passed through the calm zone, and only about five barrels were used.

The Daming Navy is the only military unit in the Ming Army that can't help drinking, because in the current ocean conditions, spirits are mixed with water to replenish water. A jug of shochu is mixed with a liter of water, and a jug of shochu is about [-] milliliters.

This ratio has been certified by the Daming Jiejieyuan. If it is higher, it will cause heartburn if it is wasted, and if it is lower, it will have no disinfection effect. This is the conclusion obtained by the Jiejieyuan after more than ten years of observation.

Before Tang Xing became a relative of the emperor, he was born in the low-level army. He knew exactly that the sergeant did not suffer from unevenness, especially on the ship. A drinking water standard, the soldiers will not have any complaints.

In fact, at the beginning, His Majesty prepared a super large barrel with a capacity of 640 liters, but it was changed to [-] liters under the joint suggestion of Songjiang Shipyard and Haishitang.

The ups and downs of the boat in the crests and valleys were like grains thrown by a dustpan. Tang Xing only felt his internal organs being lifted and thrown down, and immediately lay down on the table, dripping cold sweat continuously, and his face was pale.

"On the third day of February in the 13th year of Jingtai, the westernmost Luo of Boxiyang passed Zhengfeng Xianwan, and the navy was stationed to search..."

"Don't go to Manbasa, go straight to Luojing Zhengfeng." Tang Xing looked at the Kanyu map and gave instructions.

These eunuchs do not have this kind of treatment.

There are 220 crew members on each ship of the ocean-going fleet, and they need 44 liters of spirits every day. They sail for more than 160 days and share about 640 liters. The small barrels for light oil are [-] liters, and the large barrels for spirits are [-] barrel. [-] liters.

But the Taixi people looked at Tang Xing, the incomparably exquisite pattern on the full body armor, they were confused.

Tang Xing did some investigation and found out that these warriors were still squeezing the Japanese Ashigaru on the boat, and many of them were starved to death. These warriors obviously couldn't eat so much food or drink so much water. But even if he threw it away, he didn't give Ashigaru another bite.

During the two-month voyage in the equatorial windless belt, Tang Xing hacked to death thirty Japanese warriors.

"Your pronunciation is inaccurate, I don't like it very much." Tang Xing shook his head when he heard the tone. The Latin spoken by this Thai-Western person is not authentic.

The Taixi people who were tied up by five flowers were immediately stunned. They looked at Tang Xing in disbelief. Already occupied by Fatih."

Kuai Lin glanced at the time, counted with his fingers, and then pulled out a quadrant, and simply calculated the lower dimension. While writing the logbook, he said with a smile: "Your Majesty is lenient, be prepared. chant."

Like a demon descending from the sky, he is really the god of Tai Sui in the world.

The same is true for Tang Xing, two liters of water a day, never exceeding the amount.

Tang Xing stood up and said loudly to the official school: "Moor near Xianwan, replenish water and food, all staff are on alert, never take off their armor at night, and immediately fight back when attacked, no orders are needed!"

"Where are you from?" Tang Xing speaks in Latin, and in an authentic Junbao accent.

"Set sail!" Tang Xing waved his hand, and the barge pulled the three-masted ship out to sea again. Under the trade wind, the ocean-going fleet turned again and began to head north along the coastline.

Tang Xing said quite accurately: "Well, I know, don't worry."

Tang Xing was not used to these warriors, so he took advantage of the moonlit night to arrest all the warriors among the Japanese and sink them into the sea.

When we got on the boat, we were all on the same boat. If the boat capsized, we would all die. If these samurai went on like this, if more than 800 ashigaru really rebelled on the boat, it would be a big trouble.

He is a boat master, and he knows that it is easy to get lost on the sea, and there is no harm in being more prepared.

Kuai Lin was calculating the latitude and longitude to determine his position. He looked like a Taoist priest who was putting on airs.

If it is sailing on shore, even if there is no regulation, the prohibition on alcohol is still enforced.

As the commander of Fandu in Ming Dynasty, it is very reasonable to learn and be proficient in a foreign language.

If Rome had this kind of full body armor, would it still be annexed by Ottoman?It would be nice if Fatih didn't go to Junbao to kowtow to Constantine XI.

Tang Xing calculated carefully, he was really a Roman nobleman.

Princess Elena, who married from afar, has the right to inherit the Roman Empire, and Elena's son Zhu Jianyang also has the right to inherit the Roman Empire, and the third and fifth princes are brothers of the same father, and Tang Xing is the third prince and his grandfather. So Tang Xing is not only a relative of the emperor of Ming Dynasty, but also a relative of Rome.

Tang Xing didn't answer the question directly, because in his opinion, Daming's status as a relative of the emperor was more honorable, so he asked instead: "So, where are you from?"

Don't ask so detailed, what is the treatment for female aborigines on board, I can't say that all the big logbooks I saw were used up and thrown into the sea.Ask for a monthly ticket, woo! ! ! !
